The board of directors of Exor, the majority shareholder of Italian football club Juventus, unanimously decided to reject a takeover offer from stablecoin issuer Tether. In a statement, Exor said it "has no intention of selling its Juventus shares to any third party," explicitly including Tether. Previously, Tether had offered to acquire Exor's 65.4% stake in Juventus in cash, stating that it planned to invest an additional $1 billion in the club's development if the deal went through. Tether currently holds approximately 10% of Juventus' shares and has repeatedly expressed its desire to play a more active role in the club's governance. Exor emphasized that the Agnelli family, as Juventus's stable controlling shareholder for over a century, will continue to support the club's management in implementing its established strategies. Following the news of the Tether acquisition, Juventus-related token JUV surged by over 32% in the past 24 hours. As of now, Tether has not publicly responded to Exor's decision. (CoinDesk)

Earlier reports indicated that Tether planned to make an all-cash purchase of 65.4% of Juventus Football Club shares held by Exor. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that the Agnelli family, which holds the controlling interest in the club, does not intend to sell its shares.

U.S. Attorneys in Maryland have announced additional charges against cryptocurrency promoter Rodney Burton (known online as "Bitcoin Rodney") for allegedly participating in the promotion of the HyperFund (also known as HyperVerse) Ponzi scheme, which is estimated to be worth approximately $1.8 billion. The new indictment accuses him of multiple counts, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, and operating an illegal money transfer business. Prosecutors allege that between 2020 and 2024, Burton and others packaged HyperFund as a legitimate cryptocurrency investment platform, promising investors daily returns of 0.5%–1%, claiming that the returns came from large-scale cryptocurrency mining, but the mining operations did not exist. Starting in 2021, the platform began restricting user withdrawals. The indictment also alleges that Burton used investor funds to purchase luxury apartments, sports cars, and yachts. If convicted on all charges, Burton could face decades in federal prison. He remains in custody, and the trial is scheduled to begin next March. Previously, Sam Lee, another co-founder of HyperFund, had been indicted by the SEC but remains at large. (The Block)

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released guidance for investors on crypto wallets and asset custody on Friday, systematically outlining the advantages and risks of different crypto asset storage methods. The guidance compares self-custody and third-party custody models and reminds investors to carefully examine whether the custodian institution engages in asset rehypothecation and whether client assets are commingled when choosing a third-party custodian. The SEC also outlined the main differences between hot and cold wallets: hot wallets, being connected to the internet, face higher risks of hacking and cybersecurity; while cold wallets reduce the risk of online attacks, damage to storage devices, theft, or loss of private keys can lead to permanent asset loss. Market analysts believe this guidance indicates a significant shift in the SEC's regulatory stance towards the crypto industry. The previous day, SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that the traditional financial system is accelerating its migration to on-chain, and the SEC has approved the DTCC to explore tokenization of assets such as stocks, ETFs, and government bonds.

According to OnchainLens monitoring, a newly created wallet address withdrew 23,637 ETH from Kraken, worth approximately $73.4 million. On-chain data shows that the address's behavior is similar to that of the Ethereum treasury company BitMine, suggesting it may be an associated wallet.

Laura Katherine Mann, a partner at the international law firm White & Case, stated that 2025 was a "test year" for crypto IPOs, while 2026 will be the crucial year to determine the long-term sustainability of digital asset IPOs. She pointed out that the market will judge whether crypto IPOs represent a "sustainable asset class" or are merely cyclical transactions that only work during bull markets. Mann noted that several crypto companies went public in 2025, including stablecoin issuers Circle, Bullish, and Gemini. Looking ahead to 2026, potential IPO candidates include Upbit, FalconX, Chainalysis, and Grayscale, which has already filed for listing. She believes that although the crypto market as a whole has recovered significantly from the bull-bear cycle of 2021, high volatility remains a key concern for traditional capital markets, as it directly impacts corporate revenue stability, user activity, and valuation levels. Meanwhile, institutionalization is strengthening, but investors' risk appetite is becoming more cautious. Structurally, Mann predicts that 2026 crypto IPOs will shift from "Bitcoin Treasury (DAT) companies" to more financial infrastructure-oriented businesses, including regulated exchanges and brokers, infrastructure and custody service providers, and stablecoin payment and fund management platforms. She also cautions that valuation discipline has returned, and the macroeconomic environment and market sentiment could still rapidly tighten the IPO window. Only crypto companies with a compliant foundation, a sustainable business model, and a clear equity narrative will have a chance of successfully listing on the public market in 2026. (coindesk)
