In recent years, blockchain technology has increasingly made its way into the corporate treasury landscape, transforming traditional financial management practices. Companies across various sectors are recognizing the benefits of blockchain's secure, transparent, and decentralized nature, leading to its adoption in treasury functions such as cash management, payments, and financial reporting. Blockchain's potential to streamline processes, reduce costs, and improve security has made it an attractive option for corporate treasuries looking to enhance operational efficiency. By enabling real-time, cross-border payments without the need for intermediaries, blockchain can significantly reduce transaction fees and processing times, which traditionally can take days.

 Crypto.com has officially withdrawn its lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) following a high-profile meeting between the company's CEO, Kris Marszalek, and President-elect Donald Trump.

This suit had sought clarity between the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regarding oversight of crypto markets. The timing of the lawsuit's dismissal, shortly after Marszalek's meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, suggests a shift in Crypto.com's strategy. During their discussions, the focus was on creating a crypto-friendly regulatory framework and the development of a federal Bitcoin stockpile. Trump's incoming administration has already signaled support for more lenient crypto regulations, with key figures like Paul Atkins, a known advocate f...
