PANews reported on January 13th that, according to Fortune magazine, former New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a cryptocurrency project called "NYC Token," aimed at raising funds to combat anti-Semitism and anti-American sentiment, and to educate children about blockchain technology. However, specific details of the project remain quite vague. At a brief launch event in Times Square, Adams did not specify how the token would specifically combat anti-Semitism, nor did he disclose partners, launch date, or how funds would be used. Adams stated that he will not currently receive a salary from the project, but may reassess it in the future. Adams was a strong supporter of the crypto industry during his presidency, but has also been controversial due to ethical and conflict-of-interest issues. New Mayor Zohran Mamdani has stated that he will not purchase the token.

According to information posted by Eric Adams on the X platform, the NYC Token appears to have been launched on the Solana network. Its market value briefly surged to $700 million before quickly falling back, and is currently trading at $95.47 million.

Warsaw Stock Exchange debuts first Bitcoin ETF in Poland

The post Warsaw Stock Exchange debuts first Bitcoin ETF in Poland appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways The Warsaw Stock Exchange has launched Poland’s first Bitcoin ETF, providing a regulated and accessible way for Polish investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin. This move may help foster additional cryptocurrency products regionally. The Warsaw Stock Exchange launched Poland’s first Bitcoin exchange-traded fund, marking a milestone in Eastern Europe’s cryptocurrency adoption. The ETF allows Polish investors to gain Bitcoin exposure through standard brokerage accounts. The launch follows a global trend that began with Bitcoin ETF approvals in Canada in 2021 and the U.S. in 2024. In established markets, daily inflows often exceed thousands of Bitcoin, signaling broader mainstream integration. Bitcoin ETFs are regulated investment funds that track the digital asset’s price through derivatives like futures contracts, enabling indirect exposure for traditional investors without requiring direct crypto custody. Poland, with a population of about 38 million, has increasingly embraced fintech and digital assets. Bitcoin maintains a market cap exceeding $2 trillion.
