Bitcoin and altcoins have seen a significant rebound in the last 24 hours after experiencing a recent wave of decline.

Bitcoin (BTC) is once again approaching the $70,000 mark, while Ethereum (ETH) has surpassed $2,000.

While other altcoins also saw significant gains, one altcoin stood out with its surge.

Polkadot (DOT) Reaches the Top with its Rise!

Accordingly, Polkadot (DOT), one of the established altcoins, topped the list of altcoins with the highest increase.

According to CoinMarketCap data, Polakdot has made headlines with a 25% increase in the last 24 hours.

One analyst analyzed the reasons for the rise in DOT and attributed the increase to the halving, spot ETF expectations, and technical factors.

Bitcoin investor and analyst Lark Davis attributed Polkadot’s (DOT) 41% surge yesterday to a variety of factors, including the upcoming halving, potential spot ETF applications, and bullish technical formations.

Davis pointed to the halving as the first factor. He noted that Polkadot is scheduled to halve on March 14th, reducing its annual supply by more than 50% and shifting the token to a deflationary model. According to the analyst, the scarcity narrative is fueling strong bullish expectations.

Secondly, pointing to ETF applications, the analyst said that potential Polkadot ETFs that could be launched by institutions like Grayscale and 21Shares have increased investor expectations. This, in turn, supports the bullish sentiment.

Thirdly, the analyst pointed to bullish technical breakouts on the DOT chart. Technically, the analyst noted that DOT had broken above its 20-day moving average and the resistance level around $1.40 on the daily chart. He added that the support at $1.23 may have attracted trend-following buyers.

Polkadot surged from $1.23 to $1.74 yesterday. After a slight pullback, DOT continues to trade at $1.61 according to CoinMarketCap data.

Italy passes law on AI outlining privacy and child access

The post Italy passes law on AI outlining privacy and child access appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Italy has formally passed a sweeping new law to regulate artificial intelligence, becoming the first member of the European Union to roll out comprehensive legislation in step with the bloc’s landmark AI Act. The Italian Senate granted final approval after a year of debate, concluding what Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government described as a decisive step in shaping how new technologies are deployed across the country. Italy sets tough penalties for offenders The legislation, ministers argue, lays out the boundaries for human-centric, transparent, and safe use of AI while balancing the need to foster innovation, cybersecurity, and economic growth. The law casts its net widely, and it stretches into healthcare, schools, the justice system, workplaces, sport, and the public sector. AI access for children under 14 has also been tightened, and it now requires parental consent. “This law brings innovation back within the perimeter of the public interest, steering AI toward growth, rights and full protection of citizens.” Alessio Butti, the undersecretary for digital transformation. Lawmakers also opted for a hard line on abuses. A new offence has been added to the criminal code covering the unlawful spread of AI-generated or manipulated content, such as deepfakes. Anyone found guilty faces between one and five years in prison if their actions cause harm. Using AI to commit fraud, identity theft, market manipulation, or money laundering will now be treated as an aggravating circumstance, raising potential sentences by a third. Judges remain the sole authority in legal rulings, though courts are empowered to demand rapid takedowns of illicit material. Government agencies to oversee its implementation Responsibility for enforcing the regime lies with the Agency for Digital Italy and the National Cybersecurity Agency, though existing financial watchdogs such as the Bank of Italy and Consob retain powers in their own spheres. The Department…
