At $3,162, Ethereum yawns through the day, down 1.3% in the last 24 hours. Over the week, it’s shuffled between $3,119 and $3,379, like a tired cowboy limping between saloons. It’s up 3.6% in a month, sure, but let’s not forget its August high of $4,946-a memory as faded as a barnboard’s paint.

Crypto markets across Europe are bracing for a new era of tax scrutiny starting January 2026, courtesy of the EU’s latest directive, DAC8. This gem of a rule forces crypto platforms to report user transactions directly to tax authorities, effectively turning them into involuntary snitches. The rapid rise of digital assets has left regulators scratching their heads, and this move aims to shed light on the shadowy corners created by decentralised networks and cross-border crypto shenanigans.
This little brainwave, my dears, is destined to be the pièce de résistance at the 2026 BRICS summit, hosted by India later this year. One can already envision the champagne corks popping and the diplomatic small talk reaching new heights of insincerity.
A new report from Nexus Point News reveals that Maxima, the powerful Queen of Almerac, will be a major character in the upcoming film, Man of Tomorrow. First appearing in 1989, created by Roger Stern and George Pérez, Maxima originally came to Earth looking for a genetically compatible partner and even pursued a relationship with Superman. This casting fits with James Gunn’s plan to introduce compelling, but lesser-known DC characters alongside established heroes like Superman (David Corenswet) and Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult). The report suggests Maxima will begin the story as a villain alongside Brainiac (Lars Eidinger), but her loyalties may change as the film progresses.
