PANews reported on October 9th that Japan's newly elected Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi may introduce more "refined" regulatory policies to promote the development of the cryptocurrency economy, according to Cointelegraph. She was elected leader of the Liberal Democratic Party on Saturday and will become Japan's first female prime minister when she takes office on October 15th. Experts say that under her leadership, Japan may be more open to experimenting with technologies like blockchain while maintaining strict regulation. Brickken's general counsel stated that her election could have a significant impact on the understanding and management of digital assets. She supports "technological sovereignty," and the government is expected to actively promote the development of the digital economy, strengthening Japan's commitment to legal certainty in the cryptocurrency sector, which has attracted widespread attention. Furthermore, the Sanae Takaichi administration may lead the Japanese Financial Services Agency to clarify its classification of tokens. Currently, the agency categorizes tokens as payment tokens, securities, and utility tokens, each with distinct regulatory requirements.PANews reported on October 9th that Japan's newly elected Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi may introduce more "refined" regulatory policies to promote the development of the cryptocurrency economy, according to Cointelegraph.

Shocking Kenya Token Scam Takes Over Crypto Twitter

Shocking Kenya Token Scam Takes Over Crypto Twitter

The post Shocking Kenya Token Scam Takes Over Crypto Twitter appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kenya’s former Prime Minister was apparently hacked to promote a scam token project. The announcement post on his X profile was deleted, and its video was almost certainly a deepfake. The project’s name and branding closely resemble another semi-official project with glaring red flags. This confusing quagmire raises many remaining questions. Sponsored Sponsored What is Kenya Token? Kenya has an underrated presence in the international crypto community, with pockets of grassroots adoption and major business partnerships conducted by the government. However, the new “Kenya Token” apparently tried to profit from this situation rather than contribute to it. Faked Kenya Token Announcement.

Comparing the accompanying video to Odinga’s actual speaking voice, it seems extremely likely that this post was an AI-generated deepfake. The scam may have fallen apart, but there are many unanswered questions. These red flags could be an important lesson, especially as scam prevention techniques are failing the community. Who’s Behind This Scam? Sponsored Sponsored For example, analysts discovered a massive level of insider bundling with Kenya Digital Token (KDT). This is a totally separate asset apparently endorsed by sitting government officials, so the scam project may have tried to piggyback on KDT’s branding. Even this semi-official project was covered in red flags, however. Immediately after one KDT wallet conducted a TGE, 141 other accounts sniped 20% of the total supply. The site marketed these tokens as “locked for the people,” but they’re in private hands. Kenya Digital Token (KDT) is heavily bundled 150 connected addresses own 20% of the supply – worth $60M “Locked for the people” pic.twitter.com/vCVtq1WCRc — Bubblemaps (@bubblemaps) July 11, 2025 This led the community to…
