According to Reserve Bank of India RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra, the Finance Ministry is working on a discussion paper on cryptocurrencies. It would provide clarity on the future of the countrys virtual assets. Although the RBI continues to exercise caution and warn of possible financial and security threats, the Web3 industry is becoming alarmed by Indias protracted hesitation.

Elon Musk Offers $97.4 Billion to Acquire OpenAI’s Nonprofit Arm

Tensions with CEO Sam Altman increased when Elon Musks group offered $97.4 billion to buy OpenAIs nonprofit organisation. Musk cofounded OpenAI but departed before it gained popularity. In 2023, he founded xAI. His proposal argues that OpenAI should continue prioritising opensource and AI safety to avoid becoming a forprofit business. Altman quickly turned down the offer, joking about purchasing Twitter in its place. SoftBank is considering a $300 billion valuation investment round for OpenAI, previously valued at $157 billion. Musk may be able to finance the transaction through SpaceXbacked loans or the sale of Tesla stock, although this is still unknown. The offer might interfere with OpenAIs ability to raise money and make the board think about fiduciary duties in the face of regulatory scrutiny. Read More..
