According to The Block, cryptocurrency mining company Marathon Digital plans to increase its computing power to 50 EH/s by the end of 2024, which is double the amount at the beginning of the year.

Deutsche Bank analysts also pointed out that Tether's reserve transparency was lacking and described the company's solvency as "doubtful".

US SEC submits final response in Ripple case relief phase

Ripple Labs and the US SEC have made new progress in their legal battle, with the SEC submitting its final reply in the remedies phase of the lawsuit. In response to the recent brief on remedies, the SEC questioned Ripple's claim that the blockchain startup's behavior was not reckless, despite the court previously rejecting this "fair notice" defense, but Ripple's legal status should not have "broad uncertainty". The SEC also questioned whether Ripple might maintain its original position in the future, although Ripple has not violated any rules since the XRP lawsuit was launched in 2020. According to the remedy brief, Ripple attempted to downplay its responsibility while emphasizing its cooperation with the SEC since the XRP ICO in 2013. However, the SEC emphasized that under the law, even if Ripple has not engaged in any violations since 2020, the next violation is still expected to be possible. (Cointelegraph)
