Gemini Opposes Genesis Bankruptcy Plan: ‘Woefully Light on Specifics’
“Debtors have repeatedly promised that a plan that resolves claims against DCG is right around the corner, as they seek extension after extension of mediation periods, hearing dates, and bid deadline,” the Gemini filing said.

Web3 Is a Game Changer in ESG Compliance
Nevertheless, the benefits of Web3 technologies in easing this transition period should not be underestimated. By providing a robust system for data verification, a system based on content-addressed data could mitigate potential fines companies may face for non-compliance. For the new EU regulations, if a company fails to carry out quality controls, it could be fined up to 4% of its total annual turnover. A 4% loss of total annual turnover is a significant deterrent, making the investment in Web3 technologies an economically sound decision. Source

Bitcoin led the cryptocurrency markets higher on Aug. 29 following Grayscale’s victory in the lawsuit against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
