Chaofan Shou, an intern researcher at blockchain security company Fuzzland, pointed out on X that Anthropic's AI programming tool Claude Code's npm package contains a complete source map file (cli.js.map, approximately 60MB), from which the entire TypeScript source code can be reconstructed. It has been verified that the latest version v2.1.88 released today still contains this file, containing the complete code of 1,906 Claude Code proprietary source files, covering implementation details such as internal API design, analysis of telemetry systems, encryption tools, and inter-process communication protocols. Source maps are debugging files used in JavaScript development to map compressed code back to the original source code and should not appear in production releases. In February 2025, an earlier version of Claude Code was exposed for the same issue, and Anthropic removed the older version from npm and deleted the source map at that time. However, the issue resurfaced, and several public repositories on GitHub extracted and organized the restored source code, with ghuntley/claude-code-source-code-deobfuscation receiving nearly a thousand stars. The leaked code is the client-side implementation of the Claude Code CLI tool, which does not involve model weights or user data and poses no direct security risk to ordinary users. However, the continued exposure of the complete source code means that the internal architecture, security mechanisms, and telemetry logic are completely transparent to the outside world.

Ghana is set to take control of a Gold Fields mine, with the search for a new owner restricted to locally owned companies. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting the government's decision to prioritize domestic ownership in the mining sector. This move aligns with Ghana's broader strategy to enhance local participation in its natural resources industry. The decision comes amid ongoing efforts to boost the country's economy by leveraging its rich mineral deposits. The focus on local ownership is expected to foster economic growth and create job opportunities within the nation. Ghana's government aims to ensure that the benefits of its mineral wealth are retained within the country, supporting local businesses and communities.

Liquefied natural gas (LNG), once considered a reliable and cost-effective energy source, is facing scrutiny due to rising costs and supply chain issues. Wall Street Journal (Markets) posted on X, highlighting the growing concerns within the energy sector. The reputation of LNG as a secure and affordable fuel is being questioned as geopolitical tensions and market dynamics contribute to price volatility. Industry experts are observing that the fluctuating prices are impacting global energy markets, with implications for both producers and consumers. The challenges are compounded by logistical hurdles and regulatory changes, which are affecting the stability of LNG supply chains. As the energy landscape evolves, stakeholders are reassessing the role of LNG in meeting future energy demands. The situation underscores the need for strategic planning and investment in alternative energy sources to ensure long-term sustainability and security in the global energy market.

Key TakeawaysRussia approves draft crypto regulations limiting non-accredited investors to 300,000 rubles (~$3,300) per year per platform.Retail investors restricted to approved, highly liquid digital assets and must pass testing.Transactions must go through regulated intermediaries, with direct trading banned.Bill to be submitted to the State Duma for review in the coming days.Russia Moves Forward With Crypto Regulation FrameworkRussia has approved a new cryptocurrency regulation package that introduces limits on retail investor participation while formalizing oversight of digital asset transactions.According to reports, the rules set an annual cap of 300,000 rubles (approximately $3,300) for non-accredited investors purchasing cryptocurrencies through a single broker. The measure is designed to limit retail exposure to volatility while maintaining controlled market access.The proposed legislation will now be submitted to the State Duma for further review.Retail Access Restricted, Accredited Investors UncappedUnder the framework, non-accredited investors will only be allowed to trade highly liquid digital assets included on a list approved by Russia’s central bank.Retail participants must also pass a knowledge testing process before gaining access to crypto investments.In contrast, accredited investors will face no monetary limits, though they will still be required to complete testing procedures.Intermediary Requirement Tightens Market ControlThe regulations mandate that all crypto transactions must be conducted through licensed intermediaries, effectively banning direct peer-to-peer trading within the domestic framework.However, Russian citizens will still be able to purchase cryptocurrencies through foreign platforms, provided they use overseas accounts and report transactions to tax authorities.Enforcement will primarily target non-compliant service providers and exchanges, rather than individual users.Implications for Crypto Market StructureThe move reflects a broader regulatory approach focused on controlled adoption rather than full restriction, allowing institutional and qualified investor participation while limiting retail exposure.By restricting access and enforcing intermediary-based trading, the framework may reduce domestic liquidity while pushing some activity to offshore platforms.For the broader crypto market, the development highlights continued divergence in global regulatory strategies, with Russia balancing risk management and participation as digital assets gain traction worldwide.

Token issuance failures have reached unprecedented levels, according to Foresight News. At the EthCC[9] conference, 21Shares researcher Darius Moukhtarzade highlighted the prevailing 'low circulation, high fully diluted valuation' model as a core issue for the years 2024 to 2025. Moukhtarzade proposed a practical framework aimed at achieving a sustainable token economy, which includes increasing the initial circulation ratio, establishing product-market fit, enhancing value capture mechanisms, and ensuring transparency and long-term alignment. He emphasized that the success of tokens in 2026 will not rely on short-term explosive growth but rather on building a resilient on-chain economy amid institutional funding and stricter regulations.
