‼️ Basel requirements are slowing the cryptocurrencies
📉 Executives of crypto companies holding bitcoin on their balance sheets are calling on the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) to revise the existing Basel III capital requirements.
Current rules stipulate that banks holding cryptocurrencies must maintain a 1250% capital reserve, compared to 0% for cash or gold, and 400% for shares of private companies.
“This is a very subtle way of suppressing (crypto company) activity, making these operations too expensive for banks,” said CoinFund President Chris Perkins.
In November, the BCBS Chair acknowledged that cryptocurrencies require a different approach. However, no concrete changes have been implemented so far.
☄️The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Trump’s global tariffs illegal, which triggered a crypto market sell-off in the fall
The court ruled (6–3):
➡️ Donald Trump violated federal law by unilaterally imposing these measures; ➡️ the U.S. president cannot independently introduce unlimited tariffs in scope and duration without authorization from Congress; ➡️ Trump’s actions exceeded the powers granted to the president by law.
Most of the tariffs will likely be repealed or revised in the near future.

🔐 Dusk Network: Building the Future of Private and Compliant Blockchain Finance
In today’s evolving blockchain landscape, one of the biggest challenges is balancing privacy with regulation. This is exactly where @Dusk stands out. Dusk is a privacy-focused Layer-1 blockchain designed specifically for regulated financial markets and real-world asset tokenization.
Unlike traditional public blockchains where all data is fully transparent, Dusk leverages zero-knowledge technology to enable confidential transactions while still allowing selective auditability for regulators and institutions. This makes it possible to bring real financial products such as bonds, equities, and compliant digital securities on-chain without sacrificing privacy or compliance.
The $DUSK ecosystem empowers developers and institutions to build secure, scalable, and regulation-ready financial applications. As global regulations become stricter, blockchains that support privacy-by-design with compliance will play a crucial role. Dusk is not just another crypto project — it is building the infrastructure for the next generation of on-chain finance. #Dusk
