The service accepts payment in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The project is overseen by the country’s Ministry of Economy. Its main goal is to bypass the SWIFT system and Western intermediaries under sanctions. The insurance covers the risks of inspection, detention and confiscation of ships. According to Fars, Iranian authorities expect to earn more than $10bn if the platform succeeds. Earlier, industry representatives discussed collecting transit fees from tankers in bitcoin or yuan. Such payments could reach $2m per vessel depending on cargo volume. Musk lost his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI A federal court in Oakland dismissed Elon Musk’s suit against Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, OpenAI and Microsoft because it was filed too late. According to the nine jurors, the claims were time-barred. Deliberations took less than two hours. In the case, Musk claimed that OpenAI had abandoned its original non-profit mission and effectively become a profit-driven enterprise. Timing proved decisive for the jury’s decision in favour of the AI company. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers also criticised the plaintiff’s claimed damages of $78.8bn to $135bn.

Within 90 days, heads of federal financial regulators must review existing rules and determine which of them impede companies from obtaining banking licences and deposit insurance. They have 180 days to implement measures to support innovation following the review. A separate block of the order concerns the Federal Reserve System. The White House instructed it to assess within 120 days the possibility of providing direct access to master accounts and services at reserve banks for “non-insured depository institutions and non-bank financial companies.” The Fed has already proposed a “light” version of access to the central bank’s infrastructure for crypto firms and the fintech sector. The initiative would introduce a new type of account — payment accounts — aimed exclusively at clearing and settlement. What else to read?

Blockchain researcher and investor William Mougayar has defended the Ethereum Foundation (EF), stating that the organization is "doing exactly what it was created for." https://t.co/TCA3lPwh3W— William Mougayar (@wmougayar) May 24, 2026 In an essay titled Leave the Foundation Alone, the author of "The Business Blockchain" wrote: "It is not a corporation. It was never intended to be one. The sooner the market accepts this, the sooner the noise around it will become irrelevant."  The statement was prompted by growing criticism of the EF amid weak ETH performance, the foundation's coin sales, and accusations of insufficient ecosystem support. Mougayar emphasized that the organization should not be involved in promoting the cryptocurrency's price or institutional marketing of the network. "The Ethereum Foundation does not market ETH, pump your portfolios, or conduct roadshows for institutions — that is not its function," he wrote. The Foundation is on a Path of "Self-Diminishment" According to Mougayar, the Ethereum Foundation is consciously aiming to become less significant to the ecosystem over time, rather than increasing its control over it. He noted that the organization: funds fundamental research; advances scaling; works on privacy; explores post-quantum resilience; enhances Ethereum's compatibility with AI; supports developer standards. The researcher compared the community's expectations of the Ethereum Foundation to expecting the IETF to buy advertising slots for the TCP/IP protocol during the Super Bowl. Mougayar also urged distinguishing between three different entities: ETH (as a cryptocurrency), Ethereum (the infrastructure), and EF (the organization). In his view, conflating these concepts leads to misguided expectations and "erroneous forecasts." In March, the EF published an updated mandate, reaffirming the principle of minimal intervention in the network's development.

Ethereum Foundation faces fresh criticism after William Mougayar defended its role amid ETH sales, unstaking moves and price pressure.
