On Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the Department of Justice to challenge state laws in the field of artificial intelligence, especially those enacted independently in the absence of federal regulation. The order establishes an Artificial Intelligence Litigation Working Group, emphasizes federal priority, and may question state laws on the grounds of interstate trade protection, with Colorado’s “Algorithm Discrimination” bill becoming a key focus. In the order, Trump stated that a unified national standard is more conducive to innovation than 50 individual state approaches, claiming that excessive state regulation hampers the development of American AI companies. However, the order was immediately criticized by labor groups, technology policy organizations, and AI researchers, who argued that it sidesteps the potential risks of AI systems and favors the interests of large tech companies. The United Food and Commercial Workers Union pointed out that the order threatens state government rights and may undermine workers’ jobs and rights. AI expert Gary Marcus warned that the order could make Trump himself responsible for economic or social risks related to AI.

Blockchain analytics firm Global Ledger's latest investigation shows that the Russian cryptocurrency exchange Garantex, which was placed under sanctions by the West, is resuming operations and continues to process funds through a hidden payment architecture. Despite its servers being previously seized and its business being targeted by the international community, on-chain evidence indicates that the platform has quietly restarted recently and has transferred tens of millions of dollars in assets to users. The investigation found that researchers tracked multiple new wallets associated with Garantex on the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks, holding a total of over $34 million in cryptocurrency, with at least $25 million already paid to former users. The flow of funds also reveals how they evade monitoring: Garantex uses mixing tools like Tornado Cash to obfuscate reserves, then jumps across networks via cross-chain bridges between Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, and others, ultimately consolidating into an aggregation wallet before transferring out to multiple payment accounts.
