Caitlin Kalinowski, head of OpenAI's robotics team, announced her resignation due to controversy surrounding the company's AI collaboration agreement with the U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon). Kalinowski stated on social media that while AI does play a crucial role in national security, issues such as domestic surveillance in the absence of judicial oversight and the development of lethal autonomous weapons without human authorization deserve more thorough and deliberate discussion. Kalinowski joined OpenAI in November 2024, previously leading an augmented reality glasses project at Meta. She emphasized that her departure was "a matter of principle, not personal," and stated that she still respects OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and the team. She further pointed out that the company failed to establish sufficient governance and security guardrails before announcing the collaboration, and that the decision-making process was too hasty. An OpenAI spokesperson confirmed her departure to the media, stating that the company's collaboration with the Pentagon aimed to provide a path for the responsible use of AI in national security, while clearly defining red lines, including not using it for domestic surveillance and not developing autonomous weapons systems. However, the collaboration continues to spark controversy within the industry. Data shows that after the news was released, ChatGPT uninstalls surged by approximately 295%, while Anthropic's Claude app topped the US App Store's free app chart. (TechCrunch)

On-chain analyst Willy Woo, writing on the X platform, stated that although Bitcoin encountered localized resistance around $75,000, investor flows have been steadily recovering since mid-February. Meanwhile, the VIX volatility index for the stock market is suggesting a potential shift in market sentiment towards "risk-on" in the coming weeks. Woo pointed out that Bitcoin's decline in the early stages of this bear market was "too rapid," and the current market environment is creating conditions for a price rebound to test around $85,000 (the cost price for short-term investors), but this does not mean the market has bottomed out. From a long-term liquidity perspective, Bitcoin is still in the middle of a bear market. Historically, after similar rapid declines, prices typically experience a period of consolidation, repeatedly testing key resistance levels during rebounds.

Coinbase has stated that the IRS's 1099-DA rule for digital asset tax reporting is overly cumbersome and could impose unnecessary administrative burdens on a large number of cryptocurrency holders. Lawrence Zlatkin, Coinbase's VP of Tax, pointed out that the new rule requires reporting small transactions such as stablecoin transactions and network gas fees. Since stablecoin prices are generally stable and gas fees are typically only a few dollars or less, reporting this type of information could lead to "over-reporting," further complicating the tax system. Coinbase is currently sending 1099-DA forms to millions of US users. This system requires exchanges to report users' digital asset transactions to the IRS and provide users with copies so they can self-report profits and losses. However, in this year's filings, Coinbase only reports gross proceeds from digital asset sales to the IRS, without providing a cost basis. Users must calculate their true taxable income themselves, which may confuse some investors. Coinbase plans to start calculating the cost basis for users from next tax year onwards to simplify the filing process. (Interactivecrypto)

U.S. District Judge Jeannette Vargas in Manhattan previously dismissed a civil lawsuit seeking to hold Binance and its founder CZ accountable for allegedly aiding terrorist organizations in carrying out global attacks through their trading activities. However, according to the judgment, the judge allowed the plaintiffs 60 days to file a revised complaint, supplementing it with more specific evidence of on-chain transactions and account linkages. The plaintiffs had previously failed to prove a direct link between Binance's trading activities and specific attacks, such as crucial evidence regarding fund flows, wallet ownership, or transaction times. The judge also criticized the plaintiffs' 891-page complaint as "significantly excessive" and therefore failing to meet the liability standards under the Anti-Terrorism Act. (Todayonchain)

The prediction market Kalshi is facing a class-action lawsuit after the platform allegedly failed to pay appropriate bonuses to users who signed contracts for predictions related to the Iran war. Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour had previously stated his opposition to profiting from individual deaths and claimed he would refund fees from markets related to the "whether Khamenei will step down" prediction.

Chaitanya Jain, head of strategy at Bitcoin treasury Strategy, wrote on the X platform that Strategy purchased approximately 8,000 Bitcoins for only about $300 million throughout 2022, and in the first two months of 2026, the company had already invested approximately $4.3 billion to purchase approximately 48,000 Bitcoins. This continuous and large-scale institutional buying pattern may permanently change the market structure of the Bitcoin bear market. Against this backdrop, Strategy's perpetual preferred stock STRC and MSTR will together constitute the "ultimate Bitcoin accumulation machine".
