長かったよね。KYCという致命的に間違った方向性とAMLという曖昧で不可能な目標をコスト度外視で押し付ける時代がようやく米国をはじめに終わろうとしている。まー、始めたの彼らだから感謝はしないけど。
何より米国のこの合理主義は依然として彼らの政治が多少腐ってても他の国にない理性があることを再確認する結果でもある。
データを集めてはパクられてハッカーだけが喜ぶ現行のKYCが愚の極みなことは言うまでもないけど、どれだけ多くのひとがAMLの構造的矛盾に疑いの目を向けれただろね。疑っただけでも”ビジネスマン失格”みたいなレッテル貼られる状況は国内外問わず酷かったし、クリプト民ですら疑う人は少なかった。「KYC/AMLをいっぱい無理して頑張って行政と治安維持を応援！」みたいなのが終わりに行く。プライバシー民はお疲れ様、あともうすぐ。
🚨JUST IN: SEC Commisioner calls to END mass KYC data collection.
Hester Peirce warns existing KYC/AML frameworks create huge databases of sensitive user data, making them prime targets for hacks, phishing and even physical attacks.
She is pushing zero-knowledge proofs as an alternative, allowing users to prove compliance without exposing their personal data.

This is wild.
Claude just found something humans missed.
It spotted a hidden repeat pattern in raw bacteriophage DNA…
…and uncovered a previously unknown enzyme system in bacteriophages with CRISPR-like repeats. 🤯
950 agents. 21 hours. 210M tokens.
Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR.
We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use.

KAST is starting KYC for their Visa card, letting you spend stablecoins like USDC/USDT, crypto directly.
Up to 12% cashback, works in 170+ countries, and no FX fees on USD payments.
Feels like a normal debit card, just funded with crypto.
Backed by Solana and Pudgy Penguins, and having raised $80M in Series A, KAST is positioning itself as a serious player in crypto payments.
If you’re already using stablecoins, this is a pretty practical upgrade.
