Russian dev Alexey Pertsev will stay in jail until his hearing scheduled for April 21. This is the third that his lawyers’ request for bail was dismissed. His first appeal was rejected in August, the second – in November.
The Dutch court clings to such a heavy-handed approach due to Pertsev's alleged ties with the FSB and the North Korean hackers Lazarus Group.
This crime is rated as more severe than just tax evasion. 
The SEC accuses Paxos Trust, the Pax Dollar, and BUSD stablecoins issuer, of illegal trading securities. You sound like a broken record, Mr. Gensler!
The Commission seems to have a hard time in court: Paxos has been authorized by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS); it operates under its supervision, and its stablecoins are actively used by institutional investors in the United States.
The crypto community will see an epic battle between SEC prosecutors and NYDFS lawyers! We’re wondering who has more powerful attorneys: Paxos or Ripple? 
This time the SEC hits the crypto exchange Kraken over a possible violation of the Securities Act. Incoming CEO Dave Ripley has refused to delist tokens determined as securities under the Howey test and is now having troubles with the SEC.

Microsoft halts development of its own metaverse
More than 100 employees who worked on this project will be laid off. The global behemoth underestimated its power and the necessary investments for implementation. Microsoft officials say that everything will happen, but it will be later. When will the global markets calm down? 
Markus Thielen, Head of Research at Matrixport, believes that the SEC is not targeting stablecoins. The charge against Paxos is indirect. The regulators are planning an attack on Binance, which stored customer funds in the same wallet with its collateral for some in-house tokens.
The regulations require that exchanges' corporate assets must be recorded in separate accounts and cannot form part of the proof-of-reserves calculations.
That's simple: Binance cannot confirm its BUSD reserves. Paxos Trust Company, which is the only issuer of the exchange's stablecoin, serves as a witness in this case, not a defendant.
Has CZ fallen into curly-haired Sam’s trap by mixing up customers' wallets with his own? We find it hard to believe. Hopefully, his accounting skills are way better.
