What to know:

  • Poland's government has reintroduced a cryptocurrency bill that was vetoed by President Karol Nawrocki, with Prime Minister Donald Tusk urging its passage to address national security concerns linked to Russia and former Soviet states.
  • The Cryptoasset Market Act aims to align Poland's regulations with the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets regime, providing a unified framework for crypto oversight.
  • President Nawrocki vetoed the bill, citing concerns over stringent regulations that he believes threaten the freedom and stability of Polish citizens.

Poland’s government reintroduced a cryptocurrency bill vetoed last week by President Karol Nawrocki, with Prime Minister Donald Tusk urging him to sign the legislation to mitigate what officials say are national security threats linked to Russia and other former Soviet states, Rzeczpospolita reported.

The bill, formally known as the Cryptoasset Market Act, would align Poland’s regulatory framework with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regime, which establishes a single rulebook for crypto oversight across the bloc. The government resubmitted the legislation without amendments.

"Our official register of companies operating in the cryptocurrency market includes over 100 entities directly linked to Russia, Belarus, and the countries of the former Soviet Union,” Tusk said, according to the report. “This is a wake-up call, we must ensure the security of the state and its citizens in this matter."

Cryptocurrencies are increasingly used as instruments of hostile activity, underscoring the need for tighter supervision, Tusk said. "Unfortunately, cryptocurrencies often serve as a tool for sabotage, including by enemies of the Polish state, so basic control is all the more necessary and essential."

Nawrocki vetoed the legislation last week, arguing it would impose overly stringent regulations on the crypto market. In a statement on his website on Dec. 1, he said the legislation "poses a real threat to the freedom of Poles, their property and the stability of the state."

UPDATE (Dec. 12, 14:29 UTC): Changes verb in headline to Urges from Pressures.

The post Another Nasdaq-Listed Company Announces Massive Bitcoin (BTC) Purchase! Becomes 14th Largest Company! – They’ll Also Invest in Trump-Linked Altcoin! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. While the number of Bitcoin (BTC) treasury companies continues to increase day by day, another Nasdaq-listed company has announced its purchase of BTC. Accordingly, live broadcast and e-commerce company GD Culture Group announced a $787.5 million Bitcoin purchase agreement. According to the official statement, GD Culture Group announced that they have entered into an equity agreement to acquire assets worth $875 million, including 7,500 Bitcoins, from Pallas Capital Holding, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands. GD Culture will issue approximately 39.2 million shares of common stock in exchange for all of Pallas Capital’s assets, including $875.4 million worth of Bitcoin. GD Culture CEO Xiaojian Wang said the acquisition deal will directly support the company’s plan to build a strong and diversified crypto asset reserve while capitalizing on the growing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin as a reserve asset and store of value. With this acquisition, GD Culture is expected to become the 14th largest publicly traded Bitcoin holding company. The number of companies adopting Bitcoin treasury strategies has increased significantly, exceeding 190 by 2025. Immediately after the deal was announced, GD Culture shares fell 28.16% to $6.99, their biggest drop in a year. As you may also recall, GD Culture announced in May that it would create a cryptocurrency reserve. At this point, the company announced that they plan to invest in Bitcoin and President Donald Trump’s official meme coin, TRUMP token, through the issuance of up to $300 million in stock. *This is not investment advice.

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

The post Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The lead developer of Shiba Inu, Shytoshi Kusama, has publicly addressed the Shibarium bridge exploit that occurred recently, draining $2.4 million from the network. After days of speculation about his involvement in managing the crisis, the project leader broke his silence. Kusama emphasized that a special “war room” has been set up to restore stolen finances and enhance network security. The statement is his first official words since the bridge compromise occurred. “Although I am focusing on AI initiatives to benefit all our tokens, I remain with the developers and leadership in the war room,” Kusama posted on social media platform X. He dismissed claims that he had distanced himself from the project as “utterly preposterous.” The developer said that the reason behind his silence at first was strategic. Before he could make any statements publicly, he must have taken time to evaluate what he termed a complex and deep situation properly. Kusama also vowed to provide further updates in the official Shiba Inu channels as the team comes up with long-term solutions. As highlighted in our previous article, targeted Shibarium’s bridge infrastructure through a sophisticated attack vector. Hackers gained unauthorized access to validator signing keys, compromising the network’s security framework. The hackers executed a flash loan to acquire 4.6 million BONE ShibaSwap tokens. The validator power on the network was majority held by them after this purchase. They were able to transfer assets out of Shibarium with this control. The response of Shibarium developers was timely to limit the breach. They instantly halted all validator functions in order to avoid additional exploitation. The team proceeded to deposit the assets under staking in a multisig hardware wallet that is secure. External security companies were involved in the investigation effort. Hexens, Seal 911, and PeckShield are collaborating with internal developers to…
