first_img The U.S. Department of Justice has established a Superintelligence Special Task Force to combat AI abuse

The U.S. Department of Justice announced the establishment of the "Superintelligence" Special Task Force (DOJ-SITF), led by Deputy Attorney General Stanley Woodward and Deputy Deputy Attorney General Stephen Weiss, specifically to oversee the misuse of advanced artificial intelligence. The task force's established mission is to ensure that the United States' leading position in the "superintelligence" field is not undermined by criminals, targeting foreign governments and their agents, transnational crime organizations, as well as businesses and individuals using AI to commit fraud and other crimes.Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the development of "superintelligence" will continue to be driven by American innovators, and the task force will collaborate with SI Force Chairman Jay Clayton to prevent critical AI technologies from being manipulated by domestic and foreign criminals. He noted that the Department of Justice will continue to identify and prosecute individuals who violate the law using superintelligence, including malicious actions targeting American taxpayers, U.S. critical infrastructure, or other national security areas.Weiss stated that the Department of Justice also has the responsibility to enhance regular reporting on superintelligence risks and responses, and to ensure that businesses implement strict internal controls to ensure that relevant technologies "operate as intended." This task force is one of the federal-level initiatives to advance AI regulation; the SEC has included "superintelligence" in its review priorities for 2027, and U.S. banking regulator OCC also released its first AI framework this week. The Department of Justice did not specify the timeline for the task force or disclose how it will coordinate with other agencies.

CryptoQuant analyst says the Bitcoin adjustment may not be over yet

On-chain data analysis platform CryptoQuant certified analyst CryptoZeno stated that the current market structure of Bitcoin shows that the cycle heat is cooling down, but there are no extreme signals commonly seen near significant historical turning points. The 30-day moving average of the Bitcoin Cycle Extremum Index has dropped to 15.8%, which is in the observation or mild pressure range.Currently, the BTC price has retraced about 46% from its previous historical high, but the index remains far below the levels that represent active or extreme phases. The Cycle Extremum Oscillation Indicator is also showing cautious signals, with its 30-day moving average close to the historical range bottom and significantly below the 1.0 threshold. In previous active market phases in early 2021 and during multiple periods from 2024 to 2025, this indicator had significantly increased, but no similar changes have been observed so far. CryptoZeno indicated that BTC is currently closer to an adjustment and low activity phase rather than a confirmed cycle bottom, and the low indicator readings do not mean that selling pressure has been exhausted. There may still be continued consolidation or even a new round of declines, and attention should be paid to whether the Cycle Extremum Index can continue to rise back to the active phase, as well as whether the oscillation indicator can recover simultaneously.
