Last year we covered several different crypto phenomena, ranging from crypto taxation to the fall of Terra Luna. We have enjoyed writing about these topics since they show the ingenuity and passion that people have towards cryptos, fintech and Web3 overall.

EU AI Act: Work In Progress — And The Pressure Is Building

The EU AI Act has been in force since August 2024, but the ink was barely dry before the European Commission proposed changes to it. In November 2025, the Commission published the Digital Omnibus proposal — a package of targeted amendments aimed at simplifying and clarifying the AI Act, alongside broader adjustments to several pieces of EU digital legislation, including the GDPR and Data Act. The proposal came as a response to concerns about legal uncertainty and the practical challenges businesses face in preparing for the new digital legislation.
