Here's what happened in crypto today

Bolivia just went full send on crypto adoption — their government announced they're integrating cryptocurrencies and stablecoins directly into the financial system. Economic minister Jose Gabriel Espinoza dropped the news Tuesday, saying banks can now custody crypto for clients and use digital currencies for savings accounts, credit products, and loans. His take? "You can't control crypto globally, so you have to recognize it and use it to your advantage." Real talk: this is Latin America fighting back against insane fiat inflation that's been pushing locals toward stablecoins as actual usable money.

This isn't just Bolivia going rogue — it's part of a global FOMO wave where nation-states are racing to adopt crypto before they get left behind. Analysts are calling it high-stakes game theory in action.

The UK's FCA is getting hands-on with crypto regulation — they just greenlit RegTech firm Eunice to test standardized disclosure templates with heavy hitters like Coinbase, Crypto.com and Kraken. This sandbox experiment gives us the clearest look yet at how Britain plans to build its crypto rulebook: by testing real tools in real markets instead of just theorizing. FCA innovation head Colin Payne basically said "come at us" to other companies wanting to test similar solutions.

Eunice CEO Yi Luo called it a collab space where regulators and industry can actually work together to strengthen UK crypto markets. Translation: they're building the rules WITH the players, not just throwing regulations from on high.

Robinhood's prediction markets are absolutely printing — they just revealed it's their fastest-growing revenue stream since launching in March with Kalshi. We're talking 9 BILLION contracts traded by over 1 million users. JB Mackenzie, their futures and international GM, said they're "seeing strong customer demand" and planning to double down with a futures/derivatives exchange and clearinghouse.

This isn't just side hustle energy — Robinhood is building serious infrastructure to scale prediction markets into a core business. Mackenzie said the investment will "deliver an even better experience and more innovative products for customers." Translation: they found a cash cow and they're feeding it steroids.
