The SEC will pay $150,000 in legal fees and review its record-keeping practices as part of a July 22 settlement, ending a public-records lawsuit backed by Coinbase. The case, filed by History Associates, focused on transparency and the preservation of federal records, including text messages.
ITR filing for AY 2026-27 is a statutory requirement in India, mandatory for individuals whose income exceeds basic exemption limits, and in specific situations even below these limits.

XRPL holds $3.6 billion in real-world assets (excluding stablecoins), with $2.6 billion in represented assets and $1 billion in distributed. The JMWH energy token accounts for $1.76 billion—roughly half the total RWA value and 70% of the represented segment. Issued by Justoken in partnership with Argentine energy producer YPF Luz, JMWH represents one megawatt-hour of energy per token. The represented asset model uses blockchain as record-keeping infrastructure rather than for peer-to-peer transfer, aligning with XRPL's native compliance controls. While the Enertoken proof-of-concept suggests potential to push RWA value toward $4.5-5.5 billion, single-issuer concentration risk and competition from open distribution models present significant challenges.
