January 16 — Goldman Sachs is exploring opportunities in prediction markets, looking to capitalize on the fast-growing space focused on wagering on real-world outcomes.

WSJ: Banks Protest High-Yield Token, Crypto Regulatory Battle Continues to Simmer in Washington

January 16 — Per The Wall Street Journal, the crypto industry and U.S. banking sector are locked in a fierce lobbying fight over yield-bearing digital tokens, a clash that threatens to derail legislative efforts to integrate cryptocurrencies into the mainstream financial system.

Banking groups have sent multiple letters to lawmakers warning yield-bearing stablecoins could devastate U.S. small and midsize banks.

X is revising its API policy, revoking the reward for users posting on X to access the API

On January 15, X Product Lead and Solana Ecosystem Advisor Nikita Bier said: “We’re updating our developer API policy—we will no longer allow apps that reward users for posting on X (also called ‘InfoFi’). This practice has already led to a ton of low-quality AI content and reply-chain spam on the platform.” “We’ve revoked API access for these apps, so your X experience will improve quickly (once bots realize there’s no more money to be made from posting).” “If your developer account was terminated as a result, please reach out to us—we’ll help you migrate your business to Threads and Bluesky.”
