The idea of an economy where artificial intelligences pay to access digital services is beginning to take shape. Autonomous agents capable of purchasing data, APIs, or computing resources already exist, supported by blockchain and micropayments. Yet, the real figures fall far short of the initial enthusiasm. An analysis shared by Andreessen Horowitz reveals that activity remains very limited, despite much higher estimates. Between adjusted volumes and infrastructures under construction, the emergence of a machine-to-machine economy still appears to be in its early stages.

Optimism cuts more than one-fifth of its jobs. The crypto market immediately reacts to this announcement. All the details here!

Oracle published its results for the third quarter of 2026 with strong growth in its cloud business. Cloud revenues reached $8.9 billion, confirming the central role of these infrastructures in the group’s strategy.

Imagine a world where people bet on death, attacks, wars, or natural disasters. In the United States, a controversial law, the "Death Bets Act", seeks to ban these macabre prediction markets. Between ethics, national security, and financial freedom, the debate is raging.

The confrontation between Amazon and Perplexity marks a turning point for AI-driven commerce. By obtaining the judicial blocking of Comet, the American giant is not only targeting an automated purchasing agent, but it is defending its control over access to its platform and its users' data. Behind this decision made in San Francisco, a broader question arises: how far can AI agents act on behalf of internet users without encroaching on the sovereignty of major platforms?

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, states that AI agents will soon dominate financial transactions. Without a bank account, they turn to cryptos to pay, trade, and automate. A revolution is underway, and it is changing everything for the global economy.

Address poisons have stolen 500 million. Trust Wallet responds with an anti-copy-paste shield. Finally some good news.

Artificial intelligence has settled into the digital daily life of Americans at a breakneck speed. Work, research, content creation: its uses are multiplying and reshaping habits. However, this massive adoption does not equate to endorsement. A new survey reveals a striking gap between use and perception, as a majority of Americans continue to view AI with suspicion. This gap, at a time when regulators and tech giants are accelerating on the subject, reveals a lasting tension around this technological revolution.

Artificial intelligence was supposed to free workers from tedious tasks and boost their productivity. But a scientific study has just dampened this enthusiasm. By juggling with more and more tools, millions of employees end up... exhausted. What if AI was creating the problem it promised to solve? 

Grok calls Musk a bald man with a micro-penis, Netanyahu a genocidal, and Starmer boring. Then the AI insults the Hillsborough dead. El pueblo unido, jamás será vencido? Not sure.

AI has just crossed a strange frontier. Cortical Labs claims to have connected living human neurons to a silicon chip, with the ambition of creating a new form of computing, halfway between the classical machine and biological tissue. This is not just a gimmick. It's a serious avenue towards more sustainable, more flexible computing, and potentially more bewildering than anything the industry has shown so far.

Nvidia stock collapses after the announcement of new American restrictions on AI chip exports. A decision that threatens the tech giant's growth and shakes markets.

Under financial pressure, Bitcoin miners are massively liquidating their reserves. More than 15,000 BTC have been sold since October as mining profitability drops and the industry explores artificial intelligence to diversify its income.

In 2025, Anthropic's AI helped the Pentagon conduct strikes in Iran. One year later, negotiations resume under tension: unlimited access to data or risk of banning. This military AI standoff could redefine the rules of technological warfare.

Mining bitcoin costs $87,000, it sells for $69,000. So miners sell their machines and retrain in AI. Gotta eat, even in crypto.

The CEO of Anthropic, Dario Amodei, has just stepped up against an unprecedented decision by the Trump administration. Washington labeled his company as a "risk to the American defense supply chain," paving the way for an unprecedented legal battle between a major American tech firm and its own government.

Ethereum is undertaking a historic transformation to face the quantum era. By rethinking its consensus, signatures, and wallet security, the network aims to guarantee complete protection of digital assets for decades to come.

Chad Hurley, co-founder of YouTube, dropped a bomb on X with a chilling phrase. Behind the irony of this tweet hides a reality that markets, companies, and workers are only beginning to digest. AI is no longer knocking at the door, it is already inside.

One might think that "more attacks" = "more money." In 2025, reality took a twist. According to Chainalysis, ransomware groups have multiplied breaches (nearly 8,000 leak events, +50% year on year), but on-chain payments reportedly fell to around $820M (≈ -8%). In other words: they are more active… for a less generous harvest.

Putin wants an AI of his own, pure and hard. His engineers tinker with made in USA copies. Meanwhile, Moscow floods Europe with deepfakes. Masterful art.

Nvidia’s blockbuster results gave markets a late boost, with AI-driven revenue surging sharply. Yet behind the rally, investors remain divided on whether the current pace of AI spending can truly go the distance.

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, recently posted a short video on X. No title, no comment, no clue. Within minutes, the crypto sphere exploded. Behind this silence was much more than a simple teaser: the maturity demonstration of QVAC, the sovereign artificial intelligence project that Tether has been quietly developing for several months.

A solo miner used rented on-demand hashrate to mine a rare Bitcoin block, earning 3.125 BTC worth around $200,000.

The Ethereum Foundation stakes 70,000 ETH and becomes a validator. A strategic turning point that could change the balance of the Ethereum market.

Is artificial intelligence devouring the tech industry from the inside? The discreet launch of a tool by Anthropic was enough to cause billions of dollars in stock market losses. And this may just be the beginning.

DAOs dream of a world where decisions are made “by the crowd.” In practice, the crowd yawns. And Vitalik Buterin has just pointed out the real core issue: it’s not (only) a problem of rules, it’s a problem of attention. Too many votes, too many topics, too much technicality… and in the end, a minority decides while the majority lets it pass.

A former employee of a major fintech is accused of threatening to disclose KYC data to obtain a ransom in crypto. The case, confirmed by the company concerned, reveals a rarely discussed risk: the internal exploitation of sensitive information. In a sector where trust relies on data protection, this episode raises questions about control and security mechanisms.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has publicly challenged bold claims surrounding a new artificial intelligence project that says it can operate without human involvement. The dispute centers on “The Automaton,” a system introduced by Thiel Fellow Sigil Wen as the foundation of what he calls “Web 4.0.” Wen argues that his AI can earn its own existence, improve itself, and replicate independently. Buterin says the framing is flawed and potentially dangerous.
