During a talk at the Redacted conference organized by Near, Edward Snowden, an iconic figure in the protection of individual freedoms, targeted Solana, one of the heavyweights in the sector. Indeed, he described it as a project hindered by the weight of venture capitalists. For Snowden, the influence of large investors jeopardizes the foundational principles of blockchain and gives financial giants too much control over networks that aim to be autonomous. But beyond Solana, Snowden's remarks touch on the core of contemporary issues in blockchain. In the age of AI and mass surveillance, could decentralization be the last bastion of digital freedom?

The return of Donald Trump to the presidency could transform the future of cryptocurrencies in the United States, as this reelection generates both hope and apprehension.

While Beijing advocates for dialogue, the world is bracing for a new phase of commercial confrontation with potentially global effects.
