In an announcement on social media, MMA star Conor McGregor declared his intention to enter the cryptocurrency scene, stating, “I changed the FIGHT game. I changed the WHISKEY game. I changed the STOUT game. Now it’s time to change the CRYPTO game.” McGregor, known for his bombastic presence in and out of the fighting arena, hinted at the launch of a new memecoin, emphasizing that his new venture is “just the beginning.” Meanwhile, despite recent significant losses for memecoin investors, the allure of launching such tokens continues to attract celebrities, especially following President Trump’s success with his own coin. Additionally, the SEC’s decision to close investigations into tokens like Hawk Tuah’s has further fueled interest, suggesting that the celebrity memecoin trend may be far from over. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到[email protected]，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Elon Musk wants to monitor IRS data by creating a mega API, according to a report by Wired. To create the API, the Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE will organize a hackathon in Washington, DC, by next week. DOGE will work along with IRS leaders to organize a hackathon, and engineers will have two main tasks: dismantle the current IRS systems and build a new mega API that will control and oversee the IRS data. This means every taxpayer’s name, social security number, tax return, and other sensitive data will be accessed and manipulated by this mega API. The DOGE hackathon will be organized by Sam Corcos and Gavin Kliger, two of the IRS’ most skilled DOGE operatives. Corcos is a tech entrepreneur and CEO of Levels, a healthcare and tech company. He is also an adviser to Scott Bessent and “has been embedded at the Treasury Department,” according to a career federal employee. The Rolling Stone reported that Corcos has multiple ties to Elon Musk’s company, SpaceX. Kliger doesn’t have any experience working for the government. Before he started working at DOGE, he attended UC Berkeley until 2022. Then, he worked at the AI company Databricks. According to the New York Times, Kliger confronted security officials from USAID, accessed sensitive Internal Revenue Service (IRS) data, and joined in taking down parts of the CFPB website. Corcos talked about DOGE’s plans to have “one new API to rule them all.” This API will make it easy to access IRS data for cloud platforms. Application programming interfaces (APIs) let applications talk to each other and exchange data. In this case, an API will help in moving the IRS data to the cloud and this cloud platform will be a central point for reading all IRS systems. This means that anyone with access has the ability to view and use IRS data. According to an IRS engineering source, DOGE and IRS leaders will organize the hackathon, and engineers will start dismantling the old IRS systems and create a new API within the next 30 days. Once the new API is ready, Crocos said they will deploy it to the IRS’s mainframes and then apply it to every other internal system. Such a system will have access to all IRS data, including names, social security numbers, tax returns, and even employment data. Some sources told Wired that DOGE representatives spoke about the software company Palantir many times, making it a potential partner that will assist in handling the IRS data. Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel, a billionaire and one of Musk’s associates. At the moment, the IRS operates various systems hosted in on-site data centers and on the cloud, and these systems are separate and designed to function independently. Such systems has permission-based access and workers will only see data essential to their role. In a recent FOX News interview, Corcos said that, “The IRS has some pretty legacy infrastructure. It’s actually very similar to what banks have been using. It’s old mainframes running COBOL and Assembly and the challenge has been, how do we migrate that to a modern system?” Crocos stated that he was brought in to oversee the IRS’s modernization program, which is 30 years behind schedule and over budget by $15 billion. He is expected to continue his role at the IRS for six months. Cryptopolitan Academy: Coming Soon - A New Way to Earn Passive Income with DeFi in 2025. Learn More

While the American economy falters, Donald Trump secures a strategic victory in the Senate thanks to the unlocking of a controversial budget. Behind this success looms a political confrontation with global repercussions. For investors and crypto players alike, this vote opens an uncertain sequence, likely to redefine financial balances and impact the trajectory of markets. Last Saturday, the Republican-majority American Senate adopted a major budget resolution after a tense overnight session, marked by an avalanche of amendments submitted by Democrats. This text, although it does not constitute an official budget, lays the groundwork for Donald Trump ’s economic strategy for his term. Republican Senator James Lankford praised the vote. He stated: The resolution lays the foundations for an increase in funds to secure the border, enhance our energy dominance, build a national defense, cut wasteful spending, and prevent a tax increase on families and small businesses. This vote symbolizes strong support from the Republican apparatus around the president’s major economic priorities. On the Democratic side, the opposition is frontal. Chuck Schumer, the minority leader, denounced “a brutal pincers movement by the Republicans”. He accuses the majority of sacrificing the middle class. According to him, Republican senators acted “in total submission to Donald Trump”, to the detriment of essential social programs. Concerns particularly focus on the social and fiscal consequences of the text, which could: This first step, although important, merely crystallizes the ideological fractures between the two camps. It sets the tone for a large-scale budgetary confrontation whose concrete effects are yet to be defined. The text voted in the Senate is, however, only half of the budgetary equation. A similar version must still be adopted by the House of Representatives. And it is here that the divergences are growing. While the Senate forecasts around 4 billion dollars in cuts to public spending, the version pushed by some House officials displays far more radical ambitions, close to 1,500 billion dollars, in a logic of dismantling federal agencies and massively reducing state intervention. At this stage, the two chambers seem hardly reconcilable, which signals a possible legislative deadlock. “This resolution is a fiscal shipwreck”, declares the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank, pointing out a major budgetary imbalance between uncertain revenues and a programmed explosion of expenditures. Meanwhile, financial markets did not take long to react. On Wednesday, Donald Trump announced a new wave of tariffs on global imports, which immediately plunged the stock markets into the red and revived fears of a recession. This commercial hardening, combined with uncertainty around federal budget financing, fuels a palpable nervousness on Wall Street. On top of this is one of Trump’s major ambitions: to make the massive tax credits from 2017 permanent, a measure whose potential cost is estimated at over 4,000 billion dollars over ten years. The implications in the short and medium term are multiple in this explosive context. On one hand, the absence of a budget agreement could paralyze the federal administration, as has been the case several times under previous administrations. On the other, the combination of budget deficits, fiscal uncertainties, and global trade tensions could accentuate the dedollarization observed in some emerging economies. For crypto investors, this instability both enhances the appeal of alternative assets… but also increases the global volatility of the markets.

Ripple unveiled a new blockchain-based drought relief initiative on April 4, targeting arid communities in Kenya’s Laikipia County. Collaborating with Mercy Corps Ventures and DIVA Donate, the firm introduced a pilot that will automatically distribute financial assistance to 533 pastoralists if vegetation health indicators confirm drought conditions. This project utilizes Ripple USD (RLUSD), the company’s stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar and issued on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum networks. As Ripple stated: In partnership with Mercy Corps Ventures and DIVA Donate, Ripple is supporting a pilot project that will use blockchain technology to deliver financial support in the form of Ripple USD (RLUSD)—the stablecoin backed by stability, trust, and compliance—to pastoral communities in Kenya affected by drought. Mercy Corps Ventures is the impact investing arm of the global development agency Mercy Corps. DIVA Donate is a parametric conditional donation platform that leverages decentralized finance (DeFi) and remote-sensed data to deliver effective and efficient disaster relief. The system integrates smart contracts and satellite imaging to monitor grazing conditions. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), a satellite-based metric, is used to evaluate vegetation health. If conditions fall below the drought threshold by May 31, funds are automatically disbursed via RLUSD, with each pastoralist eligible to receive about $75—sufficient to feed one livestock animal for half a year. Contributors can participate by depositing RLUSD through connected wallets, with funds held in escrow and distributed only when satellite data activates the smart contract. If drought conditions are not met, funders may reclaim their contributions or allocate them to future campaigns. Ripple underscored how stablecoins and blockchain technology can streamline global aid distribution. Traditional challenges like delayed settlement, lack of transparency, and difficulty reaching unbanked populations often hinder cross-border support. RLUSD aims to counter these issues with programmable, traceable disbursements. This effort builds on Ripple’s previous work funding organizations such as CARE and Mercy Corps Ventures to explore blockchain’s role in financial inclusion. At Swell 2024, Ripple expanded its efforts by partnering with the International Rescue Committee to pilot blockchain-powered payments in relief programs, reflecting the growing interest in merging digital finance and social impact. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到[email protected]，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again sounded the alarm on the global economy—this time declaring that the financial collapse he has long warned about is no longer a future threat but a present reality. His book has been a global best-seller for over two decades and translated into more than 50 languages worldwide. Kiyosaki shared on social media platform X on April 4: “I warned the biggest stock market crash in history was going to wipe out the financial security of millions of investors… especially my generation… the baby boomers.” The famous author continued: That stock market crash arrived today. We are definitely in a recession and more than likely… a depression. The acclaimed author explained why he’s been urgently cautioning baby boomers in particular, writing: “Why was I warning boomers? Because boomers are out of time… or as pilots say: ‘They are running out of runway.’ They do not have time to ‘Invest for the long term in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or ETFs.'” Turning to solutions, Kiyosaki offered his long-standing advice: “What can a person do? As I have been suggesting for years, I suggest looking at non-Wall Street assets.” He stressed: “For many years I have suggested saving real gold, real silver, and today bitcoin.” Backing his recommendation, the renowned financial educator wrote: “Why: Because after this paper market crash wipes out millions of fake paper assets… odds are the Fed and Treasury will turn the printing presses on full speed… printing trillions in fake money which becomes even more fake… And real money… gold, silver, and bitcoin go up in value.” He concluded: If you still have ‘some runway left,’ you may want to save real money which are gold, silver, and bitcoin. Kiyosaki has consistently warned about the collapse of fiat currencies, the decline of the U.S. dollar, and the failure of traditional financial systems. He views gold, silver, and bitcoin as “real money” and essential lifeboats in what he believes is a rapidly sinking economic ship. In December last year, Kiyosaki predicted a historic crash, advising boomers to sell homes, stocks, and bonds before it’s too late. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到[email protected]，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。
