Elon Musk Explores Blockchain to Cut US Government Spending
Elon Musk, leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), is exploring blockchain technology to reduce federal spending and enhance transparency in government operations. The initiative aims to track spending, secure data, manage assets, and streamline payments, aligning with Musk's goal to cut up to $6.5 trillion from the annual federal budget. Inspired by calls for on-chain federal budgets, such as a proposal by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Musk envisions blockchain as a tool for public accountability. Following DOGE's website launch, Dogecoin saw an 11% surge, signaling widespread interest in the initiative.
Crypto Advocates Target Congress as GOP Gains Full Control of US Government
With Republicans securing control of the Senate, House of Representatives, and Executive Branch after Donald Trump’s re-election, crypto advocacy groups are prioritizing legislative action in what they call the most pro-crypto Congress in history. Key figures, including Senator Tim Scott and Congressman French Hill, have pledged sweeping regulatory reforms, with initiatives like a crypto market structure bill and comprehensive digital asset legislation. Challenges remain, as crypto advocates face opposition from anti-crypto Democrats and a narrow GOP majority in the House, raising concerns about potential gridlock ahead of the 2026 midterms.
Solana’s Jupiter Acquires Majority Stake in Moonshot and Expands Features
Solana-based DEX aggregator Jupiter has acquired a majority stake in Moonshot, an app enabling memecoin purchases via Apple Pay, following Moonshot’s rise to prominence after the launch of Donald Trump’s Official TRUMP memecoin. Moonshot saw $400M trading volume and 1M daily users shortly after TRUMP’s debut. Jupiter also acquired portfolio tracker SonarWatch, merging its features and discontinuing its standalone token, SONAR, in favor of Jupiter's native token, JUP. Alongside these moves, Jupiter unveiled updates like "Ultra Mode" for optimized trading and Jupiter Shield for enhanced security, driving JUP token prices up 10% to $0.93.
