The project is being developed in accordance with the MiCA regulation, reports Cointelegraph. The group includes major financial institutions such as BBVA, BNP Paribas, ING, and UniCredit. Fireblocks will provide technology for tokenization, wallets, and compliance tools, including identity verification and sanctions screening. The new coin is aimed at institutional clients and is intended for use in settlements, capital management, and working with tokenized assets. The stablecoin will be fully reserved and will receive the status of electronic money under the supervision of the Dutch Central Bank. The launch is scheduled for the second half of 2026.

According to DeFiLlama, the market capitalization of the segment exceeds $320 billion, with 99% of the supply tied to US dollar assets. Source: DeFiLlama.

forklog.media US Proposal for ‘AI Dividends’ to Citizens

US Congressional candidate Alex Bores has proposed an 'AI Dividends' program. The initiative suggests direct payments to citizens if automation leads to mass layoffs. Today, I’m proud to announce the AI Dividend, my plan to prepare for the AI economy with direct payments to Americans funded by tax reform that simultaneously incentivizes hiring humans instead of AI.Read the full plan here: https://t.co/sE1OuM8AlT pic.twitter.com/uoRiyIU9Me— Alex Bores (@AlexBores) April 20, 2026 Bores relies on expert forecasts suggesting that artificial intelligence could replace up to 50% of jobs, with entry-level positions being the most vulnerable.  The program would be triggered automatically upon reaching certain economic indicators: prolonged decline in employment levels;  decrease in wages in specific sectors;  increase in AI productivity without the creation of new jobs. In addition to payments, the project includes funding for retraining courses and increased oversight of technologies. The amounts and frequency of disbursements are not yet specified in the document.  To fund the initiative, Bores proposed several mechanisms:  a tax on the use of AI tokens;  the state's right to purchase shares in AI companies at a discount;  tax reforms. The author of the initiative believes these mechanisms should be implemented before a narrow circle of companies accumulates excessive profits through automation. In his view, it will be much harder to change the system after large-scale displacement of people from the labor market.  Earlier in April, Oracle began laying off thousands of employees amid falling stock prices and significant capital expenditures on AI infrastructure.
