Facebook Rethinks Libra Cryptocurrency Plans
Facebook is reportedly rethinking its plans for the Libra cryptocurrency, after resistance from regulators.
It is now considering a system with digital versions of established currencies, including the dollar and the Euro. The social network’s digital wallet is now expected to launch this autumn.
Of earlier reports that it might drop Libra itself, the firm said: “Facebook remains fully committed to the project.”
Facebook announced in June last year that it would launch the Libra digital currency, with a goal of making payments easier and cheaper. Its partners in the Libra Association include Lyft, Spotify, Shopify, but several other high-profile members such as Visa left after the idea was criticised by authorities.
“The Libra Association has not altered its goal of building a regulatory compliant global payment network, and the basic design principles that support that goal have not been changed nor has the potential for this network to foster future innovation,” Dante Disparte, head of Policy and Communications at the Libra Association, said.

Global crypto entertainment brand BC.GAME has been named “Best Crypto Casino 2025” at the SiGMA Central Europe B2C Awards, held this year in Rome. The result has been published via SiGMA’s official channels and industry media, with BC.GAME listed among the winners in the cryptocasino operator category.
As part of the SiGMA Central Europe 2025 event in early November, the B2C Awards focused on operators that have shown notable performance in online entertainment and sports betting over the past year. The “Best CryptoCasino 2025” category is specifically dedicated to platforms built around crypto assets as a core feature of their offering.
According to award-related communications and public review sources, BC.GAME’s recognition is linked to its integration of crypto payments, multi-vertical product line-up and ongoing development in Web3-oriented use cases. Several third-party reviews have highlighted BC.GAME as a representative example of a platform that supports multiple cryptocurrencies, combines casino and sports content, and designs features with on-chain users in mind.
BC.GAME noted that the award serves as a form of interim feedback on the platform’s long-term commitment to the crypto segment. The company plans to continue improving the user experience around crypto payments, cross-device product performance and content operations, while expanding sports and esports-related partnerships in markets where such activities are permitted by local regulation.
As a crypto-native operator, BC.GAME incorporates mechanisms such as provably fair verification into its product design and combines these with a native token and promotional structures to deliver an integrated casino and sports experience for crypto community users. With continued nominations and awards within the SiGMA framework and other international programmes, BC.GAME is increasingly regarded as a long-term player in the crypto entertainment vertical.

Romania Bans Polymarket Over Illegal Cryptocurrency Betting Activities
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Romania’s National Office for Gambling (ONJN) has officially blacklisted Polymarket, a prominent prediction market that allows users to bet on future events, citing its operation as an unlicensed gambling platform. The decision comes amid heightened concerns over crypto-based betting during recent election cycles, where Polymarket reportedly saw trading volumes surpassing $600 million.
ONJN asserts that Polymarket’s “counterpart betting” model – where users wager against each other on future outcomes – falls squarely within the scope of Romanian gambling regulations. The regulator clarified that regardless of whether bets are placed using fiat currency or cryptocurrencies, they are legal gambling activities that require appropriate licensing. ONJN President Vlad-Cristian Soare emphasised that the issue is about compliance with the law, not technology, stating, “It’s about the law, not the platform’s blockchain foundation.”
Although Polymarket promotes itself as an “event trading” platform, ONJN concluded that its operational structure – where users place bets on the outcomes of unpredictable events and the platform earns commissions – meets the legal criteria of gambling. Consequently, Romanian internet providers are now mandated to block access to the platform.
