EU Parliament Adopts Anti-Money Laundering Rules Package, Also Policing Crypto
The European Parliament voted to adopt a new package of laws tightening money laundering and terrorist financing measures across the EU. The laws target large cash payments, crypto firms and football clubs, among others.
"The new laws include enhanced due diligence measures and checks on customersβ identity, after which so-called obliged entities have to report suspicious activities to and other competent authorities" a press statement on the vote said.
Crypto policy watchers in the EU raised concerns that the requirements imposed on digital assets may be unfairly strict compared to other financial sectors when the bloc struck a political deal on the package back in January. A joint parliamentary committee voted on texts of the package in March, ahead of the plenary vote on Thursday.

Hola, Necats, happy weekend today we'll talk about Taiko
Introduction To Taikoπ¬
Taiko is a decentralized Layer 2 blockchain protocol that uses a Zero Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (ZK-EVM). It is designed to be the most Ethereum-equivalent and general-purpose Zero Knowledge Rollup (ZK-Rollup).
The main objective of Taiko is to provide a scalable and efficient platform for decentralized applications (dApps) developers and users, allowing them to leverage the power of Ethereum Layer 1 (L1) without having to make any changes to their existing dApps.

Taiko is building a Type 1 ZK-EVM which is engineered to achieve complete compatibility with Ethereum by incorporating a ZK-EVM that supports all EVM opcodes. The primary goal of Taiko as a type-1 ZK-EVM is to emphasize Ethereum-equivalence over the speed of ZK-proof generation. The term "type-1" originates from the fact that these ZK-EVMs introduce no alterations to the Ethereum framework, including hash functions, state trees, or gas expenses. This compatibility enables the reuse of execution clients with minimal adjustments.
There are three main components to Taiko's technical structure: the ZK-EVM circuits (for proof generation), the Layer 2 rollup node (for managing the rollup chain), and the protocol on L1 (for connecting these two parts together for rollup protocol verification). These components work together to ensure seamless compatibility with Ethereum L1, providing developers and users with a familiar experience.

What is Ether.fi (ETHFI)?
Ether.fi is a decentralized, non-custodial delegated staking protocol that introduces a unique approach to Ethereum staking. With the creation of a Liquid Staking Derivative (LSD) token, Ether.fi enables users to stake their Ethereum in a way that is both flexible and secure.
This innovation not only democratizes access to staking rewards but also preserves the decentralized ethos that is fundamental to the Ethereum community. By allowing stakers to maintain control over their keys, Ether.fi ensures that users have full custody of their assets, a critical feature for trust and security in the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

Hong Kong to launch spot crypto ETF trading by April-end
Hong Kong is gearing up to introduce spot crypto ETFs by the end of April, mirroring the U.S. trend, as the region aims to strengthen its positioning in the market. Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are on the horizon in Hong Kong, set to debut by the end of April, as the city intensifies its focus on cryptocurrencies.
In addition to spot crypto ETFs, the city already permits futures crypto ETFs: CSOP Bitcoin Futures, CSOP Ether Futures, and Samsung Bitcoin Futures. However, the trio amassed has quite a modest number of just about $175 million in assets under management so far. According to Bloomberg Intelligence ETF Analyst Rebecca Sin, Hong Kongβs spot crypto ETFs could allocate around $1 billion in assets under management by 2026.
