But we saved everything 🙂.

Raymond previously reported that over 150 institutional clients gained access to crypto intelligence through AI platforms such as ChatGPT and Copilot, according to his recent coverage. He also noted the European Commission's public consultation to review the MiCA regulatory framework for crypto-assets, detailed in a separate article. These developments reflect continuing initiatives to expand access and oversight in the digital asset sector.
