Some commentators on X called it “sad.” Others used expletives. Either way, a video of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin went viral and not in a good way. The crypto community on X.com, rarely known for decorum, blasted Buterin for kneeling before a robot and emitting what sounds like a “meow” sound. To some, the video underscored why one needs to be “bullish” about Ethereum’s present and future. To others, it was worthy of a Studio Ghibli-style photo edit. Most people kept scrolling. See below. In the brief clip, Buterin pats the robot on the head after making the unusual sound. While he has yet to comment on the video, the moment has ignited chatter, particularly given Ether’s recent price struggles. As of publication, Ether has dropped nearly 55% since reclaiming the $4,000 mark in December 2024, now trading at $1,833 — down over 8% in the past week. Some crypto figures have expressed concern, with commentator “The Count of Monte Crypto” humorously noting that the state of Ether’s price was more worrying than Buterin’s quirky behavior. And when Buterin tried posting about “how to fund public goods,” he was trolled by the crypto community with statements like: “NO ONE F–KING CARE[S]” and “YOU ARE THE ONLY FOUNDER THAT IS DOING 0 APART FROM DUMPING YOUR AIRDROPS! WAKE UP VITALIK.” It’s noteworthy that Buterin has long been known for being quirky and, according to a recent Bloomberg feature, “monkish.” But his behavior occasionally invites scrutiny. Iggy Azalea, for example, dissed Buterin for singing at TOKEN2049 in Singapore, calling it “loser s—.” Buterin is also not clear-cut in his political affiliation, which is somewhat refreshing for today’s polarized crypto traders. He has spoken openly against former SEC chair Gary Gensler as well as the dangers of “large-scale political coins” — seemingly a critique at Trump. Indeed, many crypto leaders have embraced Trump’s pro-crypto stance, but Buterin has distanced himself, rejecting what he called the “bronze-aged mindset” favored by some in the crypto community. With Ether facing uncertain prospects and Buterin’s actions fueling speculation, it remains unclear whether his personal brand of decentralization or his refusal to align with Trump’s crypto-friendly policies will shape Ethereum’s path forward.

A surprising statement came from Pedro Giocondo Guerra, a senior advisor to the Vice President of Brazil. He said that Bitcoin is not just an ordinary digital asset but can be the key to national prosperity. In his view, Bitcoin deserves to be a national strategic reserve. 💥BREAKING: BRAZIL GOVERNMENT SAYS #BITCOIN RESERVE IS CRUCIAL FOR NATIONAL PROSPERITY. CONGRESS ALREADY HAS AN ACTIVE BILL TO ALLOCATE 5% OF RESERVES IN BTC. IT'S HAPPENING! 🚀 pic.twitter.com/2oKn6NgO2N — Crypto Rover (@rovercrc) March 29, 2025 Furthermore, support for this idea does not come from just one direction. Previously, council member Eros Biondini had also submitted a draft law that aims to create the so-called “Strategic Sovereign Bitcoin Reserve” or RESBit. The idea is somewhat audacious: 5% of the foreign exchange reserves of the nation are moved into Bitcoin. Of course, not every wallet transfer. Using blockchain technology integrated with artificial intelligence, the Central Bank of Brazil will run this fund. This concept seems to be a combination of technocrat and visionary. But here’s where it gets interesting—because Brazil is starting to think of a future with new languages like code and cryptography. On the other hand, Brazil is also testing the boundaries of its wage system. On March 17, 2025, the National Congress approved a bill that would allow salaries to be paid in Bitcoin and other cryptos. The bill, proposed by Luiz Phillipe of Orleans-Braganza, would allow up to 50% of workers’ salaries to be paid in digital assets. For context, imagine someone in Brazil receiving half their salary in Bitcoin and then using it to pay for everyday expenses. A scenario that once existed only in online forums is slowly becoming a reality. However, these moves are not just technological romanticism. CNF has previously reported that as this year’s BRICS president, Brazil is advancing a new digital payments system to reduce its reliance on Western financial systems like SWIFT. The project is inspired by Pix—Brazil’s own fast payments platform—and aims to create direct cross-border transactions that don’t rely on the US dollar. This is not about being anti-Western, but rather about creating new, fairer, and more efficient options for developing countries. To illustrate how serious they are about embracing crypto, let’s look at what happened last February. Brazil made history by becoming the first country to approve an XRP Spot ETF . The ETF, owned by Hashdex, was approved by the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) and immediately listed on Brazil’s B3 exchange. This decision was not only big news in the crypto industry but also marked Brazil’s courage to embrace new technology formally and legally. A crypto ETF in a South American country? A few years ago, this would have seemed absurd. So, is Brazil just trying things out, or is it really ready to leap into the future? Just look at the combination of steps taken, such as plans to hold Bitcoin as foreign exchange reserves, legalizing salary payments with digital assets, encouraging the development of cross-border payment systems, and paving the way for crypto ETFs. All of this adds up to a pretty clear pattern—Brazil no longer views digital assets as merely frivolous or volatile.

Who would have thought that a state-owned bank in France would be so bold as to jump straight into the crypto world? Bpifrance, which has so far been known to be more familiar with financing traditional businesses, has now launched a €25 million fund to invest directly in crypto tokens created by French projects. This move is not just a whim or following a trend. Bpifrance seems to be really serious about strengthening the local digital asset ecosystem, especially amid the strong flow of investment that often flows abroad. 💥 🇫🇷 French state-owned bank Bpifrance launches €25m fund for new French #crypto tokens. pic.twitter.com/rgDNk9cBD8 — BITCOIN EXPERT INDIA (@Btcexpertindia) March 28, 2025 Different from their previous approach, where they only supported blockchain technology behind the scenes, this time Bpifrance is getting straight into the arena. This fund is designed to buy French tokens before they go public, a kind of state way of booking front-row seats at a local crypto concert. And considering that over the past decade they have poured more than €150 million into blockchain-related projects, it is clear that this is not a decision made overnight. On the other hand, this move comes amid quite complicated conditions. In January, French authorities actually deepened their investigation into Binance, the world’s crypto exchange giant. The alleged violations are serious, spanning from money laundering and financing terrorism to their connections to drug trafficking and tax evasion. The investigation covers Binance’s activities in Europe from 2019 to 2024. So, while the state is providing encouragement through Bpifrance, there is also an ongoing clean-up effort. However, France seems to still want to be a magnet for this industry. Coinbase, for example, has just celebrated its expansion into France after being officially recognized as a virtual asset service provider (VASP) by local authorities. CNF previously reported that more crypto-friendly regulations have made France one of Europe’s new favorite destinations. This can be likened to opening a special toll gate for digital projects, so that they no longer have to compete for lanes with startups from other parts of the world. Furthermore, the push from the private sector is also increasingly felt. Last year, former French parliamentarian Pierre Person decided to switch from politics to the crypto space. He founded Usual Labs and launched Usual Money, an Ethereum-based DeFi protocol. They issued two tokens: USD0++ which functions as a liquid bond, and USD0, a stablecoin backed by government bonds. It can be said that this is like combining trust in the state with the flexibility of the crypto world, two worlds that used to feel very far from each other.

Wasabi Protocol has added Berachain to its platform, allowing cryptocurrency fans to trade and earn directly on the network. With this integration, Berachain’s native assets, such as BERA and HONEY, can now be accessed via vaults with yields of up to 300%. Surprising enough? Sure. But what’s more interesting is that the rewards are given in the form of BGT, and all can be done without fees and without a lock-in period. 🟢 Wasabi x @berachain 🐻 The Beras have arrived on Wasabi. You can now trade and earn on your Berachain assets seamlessly onchain. $BERA and $HONEY vaults are now live, earning up to 300% yield with $BGT rewards. Unlock instant yield and Wasabi Points without fees, lock-ups,… pic.twitter.com/ywgiX98d5Q — Wasabi Protocol 🟢 (@wasabi_protocol) March 27, 2025 If you previously thought that staking had to wait a long time, Wasabi actually offers instant yields. No need to wait for weeks, no false promises. Just store your assets in the vault, and you can immediately enjoy the results. In addition, users will also get Wasabi Points that can be utilized in the ecosystem. On the other hand, CNF previously reported that Berachain had launched a consensus mechanism called Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL). This system allows the distribution of rewards through a special feature called reward vaults. The launch of PoL immediately impacted the price of the BERA token, which rose 14% at the time, making it one of the top 100 cryptos by market cap. Quite a rise, especially for a project that is still building its technological foothold. Furthermore, on March 28, 2025, Bitcoin Suisse, one of the old and leading names in the digital asset industry, announced that they were adding Berachain (BERA) and RedStone (RED) to their trading and custody services. This gives their clients wider access to the two assets. If an institution like Bitcoin Suisse dares to put their trust in it, there must be something quite strong behind this project. Wasabi and Bitcoin Suisse are not the only ones welcoming Berachain. CNF also reported that Orderly has integrated with Berachain. What was the result? Orderly-based DEXs can now offer cross-chain order books and higher liquidity thanks to Berachain’s PoL mechanism. For those who are often annoyed with thin liquidity like iced tea in the canteen which is mostly iced, this could be good news. Denser liquidity means transactions can be faster and prices are more stable. When this article was written, the price of the Berachain (BERA) token was at $7.92, with a 24-hour trading volume reaching around $261 million. This figure shows that enthusiasm for this token is quite high, especially after various important collaboration and integration announcements recently. However, as with the crypto world in general, fluctuations are part of the game. The price of BERA had touched an intraday high of $8.95 and a low of $7.80.
