Terraform labs, the entity behind the controversial LUNA token, announced the opening of a portal for creditors to file claims. The portal, which will be active from 31 March, represents a crucial step in the company’s bankruptcy process, which followed the collapse of its ecosystem in 2022.

The voice is one of the most powerful and intimate tools of human interaction, capable of conveying emotions, intentions and nuances through variations in tone, rhythm and intensity. However, current voice assistance technologies often lack this depth, coming across as flat and lacking empathy.

Sesame, a company at the forefront of artificial intelligence research, is directly addressing this challenge. Their goal is to achieve what they call ‘vocal presence’: the magical quality that makes spoken interactions real, understood and…

President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve of the United States. The reserve will initially be capitalised with approximately 200,000 BTC – equivalent to $18 billion – already in the possession of the federal government, confiscated as part of criminal and civil proceedings. The measure stipulates that no bitcoins will be sold and that the assets will be maintained as a store of value, similar to a ‘digital Fort Knox’, according to White House cryptocurrency chief David Sacks. In addition, Trump instructed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to develop strategies to…

This caused a domino effect, dragging the entire crypto sector down with it. Ethereum and other major altcoins…
