A recent HarrisX survey commissioned by blockchain giant Consensys indicates that nearly half of U.S. voters view a pro-crypto stance as important, with 12% more likely to consider candidates from the opposing party if they promote favorable crypto policies. In a press release on Oct. 1, Consensys revealed that the survey, which included a geographically representative sample of 1,664 registered voters, highlights that 85% of crypto voters expect presidential candidates to adopt pro-crypto positions. More than 90% of crypto owners intend to vote, emphasizing their influence, particularly in swing states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin with “strong divisions on crypto regulation preferences.” While 56% of respondents support Donald Trump‘s pro-crypto views, only 54% of voters believe it is crucial for Vice President Kamala Harris to clarify her stance on the issue.

Crypto exchange Gemini has announced its exit from the Canadian market, joining several other platforms that have left due to the country’s strict regulatory environment. Canadian customers of the Winklevoss-founded exchange reported receiving an email urging them to withdraw their funds by Dec. 31, giving them 90 days to move their assets. According to the Sept. 30 notice, all Canadian accounts will be closed by the given deadline “with limited exceptions.” Users have been asked to withdraw their crypto and fiat balances. The move comes as a surprise, considering that the exchange previously described Canada as an “essential market” for its international expansion. Gemini’s decision to exit Canada mirrors that of other major platforms like Binance, OKX, dYdX, and Bybit, all of which have struggled to navigate the regulatory environment. These exchanges have cited the complexity and cost of compliance with Canadian regulations as primary factors in their decision to leave the market.

Giant payment company Worldpay plans to verify blockchain transactions for the very first time in order to better understand how funds move through digital ledgers. According to a Bloomberg report on Sept. 26, the international payment provider is already in talks with several blockchains in hopes of becoming a validator, network participants that monitor and verify transactions in digital ledgers. “The idea is to be part of the ecosystem right at the base,” said Sanchit Mall, Worldpay‘s web3 and crypto lead in the Asia-Pacific region. He explained that Worldpay intends to directly participate in blockchains so that they can better understand the flow of money in digital ledgers. In 2024, Worldpay has processed stablecoin transactions amounting to $1.3 billion in value. The total transaction value increased from less than $1 billion in 2023, but it is still only a small portion compared to the larger sum of $2.3 trillion in transactions that Worldpay facilitates annually.

Celo recorded a remarkable price spike within an hour after Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin gave the project a positive endorsement. Notably, in a post this morning, Buterin highlighted how Celo’s work aligns with Ethereum’s mission to improve access to financial services globally. His comment came in response to a previous report from Artemis, which confirmed last week that Celo overtook Tron in stablecoin usage, specifically in daily active addresses. This came after Tether announced plans to launch USDT on Celo six months back. Interestingly, the disclosure from Tether came after a similar announcement from Circle to introduce USDC on Celo in January. Buterin’s latest support led to a spike in Celo’s price this morning, with a 19% surge within an hour pushing the token to a three-month high of $0.6552 before facing rejection. However, the hourly candle still closed with a 13% gain.

Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds in the United States experienced joint net inflows to close the trading week, and both saw even larger inflows earlier in the week. However, ETH ETFs are still experiencing net outflows since launching this summer. According to data from SoSoValue, the 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $92 million on Friday, Sept. 20, 42% lower than the $158 million inflows recorded on Sept. 19.

Sky, a decentralized finance protocol rebranded from MakerDAO, is set to utilize Wormhole’s technology to bring its native tokens to Solana, enhancing its multichain capabilities. Wormhole’s native token transfer framework, or NTT, allows for seamless cross-blockchain transfers of native tokens without altering their intrinsic properties. Other protocols like Lido, Jito, and ether have also adopted NTT for multichain token transfers. According to details in a blog post, Sky will use NTT to bridge its governance token SKY and stablecoin USDS to the network. This move will make these tokens natively multichain, available on Solana and Ethereum via bridges such as Portal. Tokens deployed multichain using NTT go through the framework’s “burn and mint” mode. In this case, there will be no wrapped tokens for the native tokens, but a unified supply across Sky and Solana. Users will be able to participate on multiple chains without suffering the impact of liquidity fragmentation, Wormhole wrote.

Charles Hoskinson, founder of the Cardano blockchain, has expressed concerns over World Liberty Financial, a new decentralized finance platform backed by former U.S. President Donald Trump and his sons. In an interview with the Financial Times, Hoskinson warned that Trump’s push into crypto could complicate the regulatory landscape for the industry, saying that “everything Trump does the left hates with such a passion.” He also cautioned that this partisanship could provoke investigations from U.S. regulatory bodies, potentially destabilizing the broader crypto market. Despite Trump’s previous dismissal of Bitcoin as a “scam,” he has recently pledged to transform the U.S. into a “Bitcoin superpower.” However, Hoskinson remains skeptical of both Trump and Kamala Harris‘s ability to foster a supportive environment for cryptocurrency as he believes that neither candidate demonstrates the necessary sophistication in understanding crypto issues.

India to recover $345m in taxes from Kraken, Huobi, and other offshore exchanges. India’s Financial Intelligence Unit is looking to recoup at least $345 million in goods and services tax from 7 seven foreign cryptocurrency exchanges that operated in the nation. Sources familiar with the matter told the Economic Times that India’s anti-money laundering body is ready to hear the petitions of the exchanges—Bitfinex, MEXC Global, Kraken, Huobi, Gate.io, Bittrex, and Bitstamp—which were barred from offering their services following show-cause notices sent by the regulator. The hearing will be held sometime this week where these companies will present their cases for resuming operations in India by demonstrating their willingness to comply with India’s Prevention of Money Laundering Act as a reporting entity.

Solana’s blockchain has surpassed previous records for daily network users. According to Artemis.XYZ data, Solana recorded the highest number of daily active addresses in blockchain history, despite the fifth-largest cryptocurrency revisiting its lows from April and January. As of this writing, a single SOL coin was worth around $136. Artemis noted that SOL’s 24-hour users exceeded the five million mark on Sept. 10, while the chain’s closest competitor hovered just above 2.5 million daily active wallets on the same day. Solana’s active address milestone occurred despite decreased activity in its memecoin sector. Specifically, Pump.fun has generated fewer fees since its peak in late July. Last week, data confirmed an 80% decline in revenue generated by the memecoin launchpad. General SOL fees and prices have also slumped since July, highlighting a correlation between SOL revenue and Pump.fun activity.

Crypto-related scams and fraud surged last year, with losses skyrocketing 45% in 2023 compared to the previous year, according to a new FBI report. As crypto gains popularity in the United States, it also brings a rise in crypto scams. According to an FBI report released Sept. 9, the total losses to these scams exceeded $5.6 billion in 2023. In 2023, the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center received more than 69,000 complaints from the public regarding financial fraud involving cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Tether. Investment scams were the most costly, accounting for 71% of the total losses, or about $3.96 billion. Call center fraud and government impersonation scams followed, contributing to 10% of the losses. The most vulnerable demographic appears to be individuals over 60, who reported the highest number of complaints. According to the FBI, their collective losses surpassed $1.6 billion.
