1. Binance’s CZ to Advise Kyrgyzstan on Crypto Developments

Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO and co-founder of Binance, is stepping into a new advisory role—this time, in Central Asia. CZ announced that Kyrgyzstan President Sadyr Japarov invited him to join the country’s National Crypto Council.  

The two met to discuss prospects of the crypto industry in the Kyrgyz Republic. 

The meeting seems to have left a strong impression on CZ. In a post on X, he shared that he spent several days in the country, learned a lot, and found it “amazing.” He ended his message with a clear intention: to work together with the government to help grow the local crypto industry.

Later, CZ revealed that Binance is partnering with Kyrgyzstan to develop crypto payment solutions and expand blockchain education efforts in the region.

This move is part of a broader trend – CZ isn’t new to advising governments. Back in April 2025, he mentioned that he’s been guiding several countries, both formally and informally, on crypto regulation and blockchain strategy.

2. Tether to Launch New Project ‘Tether AI,' Paolo Ardoino Announces 

​​Tether, the company behind the world’s largest stablecoin, USDT, is set to launch a new product, CEO Paolo Ardoino shared in an X post. The product, called Tether AI, will function as an open-source, decentralized AI platform designed to enable a peer-to-peer network of AI agents.

This means that, instead of relying on a central authority, different users or devices (referred to as AI agents) will be able to communicate and collaborate directly with one another.

To support USDT and Bitcoin transactions, Tether will use its Wallet Development Kit (WDK). While Ardoino didn’t provide an exact launch date, he hinted that the platform will be up and running soon.

3. Solana Developers Fix a Critical Bug: Crypto Trader Christiaan

Crypto trader Christiaan (@ChristiaanDefi) shared recent Solana news, saying developers patched a critical bug that could have allowed unlimited token minting or asset theft.

According to the Solana Foundation’s May 3 post-mortem report, Solana developers, along with firms like Anza, Firedancer, and Jito, patched the vulnerability within two days, ensuring that no funds were exploited.

While the quick and quiet response was effective, it also raised questions about centralization and transparency. Some community members voiced concerns over the lack of early disclosure. Others, like @CloutedMind, praised the approach, saying the team made the right call by patching the bug before announcing it.

4. EU to Ban Anonymous Crypto Accounts: Eli Nagar Reacts to  Regulations  

Eli Nagar, the CEO of the crypto mining company Braiins, recently shared his thoughts on the European Union’s upcoming Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, and it’s clear he has some concerns.

In a post on X, Nagar pointed out that under the new rules, the EU is planning to ban anonymous crypto accounts by July 2027. On top of that, anyone making a transaction above €1,000 will need to verify their identity. 

These regulations also target privacy coins like Monero, which Nagar believes will make privacy obsolete.

5. Peter Schiff Criticised Bitcoin Again, Saying It’s Not Digital Gold 

Peter Schiff, a well-known gold advocate and Bitcoin skeptic, took to X on May 5, 2025, to challenge the idea that Bitcoin is “digital gold”. He pointed to recent market movements: U.S. stock futures and the dollar declined, gold rose by 1% as a safe-haven asset, while Bitcoin dropped by 2%, behaving more like a risk asset.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin supporters pushed back. User @CrptoRn pointed out that Schiff was silent last week when gold was falling and Bitcoin was rising.

Schiff has repeatedly urged investors to swap their Bitcoin for gold, arguing that gold is the superior asset.
