Panama has introduced legislation that would allow citizens to freely buy, sell, and accept Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) nationwide, marking another significant step in the global adoption of cryptocurrencies.
What Happened: The bill follows Panama City Council&#8217;s recent move to accept Bitcoin, Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and stablecoins like USD Coin and Tether for taxes, fines, and fees, according to Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, who broke the news Monday on X.
This legislative push comes amid accelerating cryptocurrency adoption worldwide, fueled partially by U.S. President Donald Trump&#8216;s pro-crypto policies implemented since taking office in January.

Panama City&#8217;s earlier cryptocurrency initiative, spearheaded by Councilman Mayer Mizrachi, implemented a practical workaround for accepting digital <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44843430/panama-city-council-now-accepts-bitcoin-ethereum-for-taxes-fines-fees">assets without requiring new legislation</a>. &#8220;Legally, public institutions must receive funds in dollars, so we partnered with a bank who will receive the crypto and convert it on the spot to USD,&#8221; Mizrachi said.

Why It Matters: The Trump administration has championed cryptocurrency adoption by establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve and appointing an AI and crypto czar.

Panama Moves To Legalize Bitcoin Nationwide As Trump's Pro-Crypto Policies Fuel Global Adoption

Chamath Palihapitiya says the true dividend of college isn't a diploma but "culture."
What Happened: During the latest All-In podcast, the Social Capital founder told co-host David Friedberg, "My son is a rising junior and his entire focus is that he wants to go to an SEC school because of the culture."

Palihapitiya conceded his own mindset has flipped. "Two years ago I would&#8217;ve panicked … and now I&#8217;m like, that&#8217;s actually the best thing you could do," he said, adding that college is where young adults get "socially well-adjusted&#8221; and learn to &#8220;… deal with different kinds of failures." The billionaire framed college less as a career gatekeeper, more as years of structured experimentation.

Why It Matters: He's hardly alone in down-ranking credentials. Elon Musk has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38319479/elon-musk-thinks-college-is-basically-for-fun-and-to-prove-that-you-can-do-your-chores-says-degr">long argued</a>, "college is basically for fun and to prove that you can do your chores," and calls mandatory degrees "absurd." PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel goes further, paying would-be scholars <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42366606/peter-thiel-is-a-stanford-grad-but-thinks-college-is-such-a-waste-that-he-offers-100000-to-students-who-quit-compares-education-to-santa">$100,000 to drop out</a> because he "thinks college is such a waste."
Yet heavyweights still defend the classroom. According to <a href="https://time.com/3908338/bill-gates-college-grads/">an account</a> by TIME, Bill Gates — himself a Harvard dropout — maintains that graduates "are more likely to find a rewarding job, earn higher income, and even … live healthier lives," warning of an 11-million-worker shortfall without more degrees.
The debate lands as U.S. tuition tops $28,000 a year and surveys show half of employers no longer <a href="https://ssti.org/blog/bachelors-degrees-are-no-longer-required-many-jobs">require</a> four-year degrees. The ROI calculus is simple for Palihapitiya: classrooms teach facts, but tailgates teach life.

Chamath Palihapitiya Says He'd Send His Son To College Only For The Culture, 'The Best Thing You Could Do..'

The odds of the U.S. entering a recession in 2025 have plummeted sharply on prediction platforms, aided by a de-escalation in the U.S.-China trade conflict.
What happened: Wagers in favor of a contract titled "US recession in 2025?" <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/us-recession-in-2025">dropped</a> from a peak of 66% in early April to 39% currently on Polymarket, a Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based platform that allows users to bet using cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;
As of this writing, bookmakers have invested about $5.5 million on the bet. To resolve the outcome to &#8220;Yes,&#8221; the economy must record another quarter of negative growth or the National Bureau of Economic Research must declare a recession before January 1, 2026.
Similarly, recession odds on Kalshi, a federally authorized betting platform, were cut to 38% from 71%. Note that, unlike Kalshi, Polymarket is not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41838037/will-polymarket-return-to-the-us-after-getting-trump-victory-right-ceo-says-its-part-of-the-plan">available to U.S. residents</a> due to regulatory restrictions.

The measures sparked a tariff war with China, one of America's biggest trade partners, with the two countries engaging in a tit-for-tat battle for weeks.
However, things eased after the two economic giants announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45339289/bitcoin-taps-105000-ethereum-steady-dogecoin-falls-as-us-announces-china-trade-deal-analyst-says-btc-in-for-a-price-discovery-uptrend-if-it-secures-a-weekly-close-above-this-lev">trade deal</a> in Geneva following high-level talks earlier this month.
These odds were consistent with JPMorgan Chase&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45485111/jpmorgan-chase-us-economy-likely-to-skirt-recession-forecasts-sluggish-growth">projection that the U.S. would likely avoid a full-scale recession</a> this year, although a slowdown was on the cards.

On Tuesday, Deepwater Asset Management's managing partner, Gene Munster, noted that Elon Musk's AI enterprise xAI's plans for a massive investment could result in Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) as the biggest beneficiary.&nbsp;
What Happened: In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Munster highlighted Musk's revelation on CNBC that his AI company, xAI, plans to deploy 1 million GPUs near Memphis.
The majority of the 1 million GPUs expected to be deployed will come from Nvidia, with a smaller portion supplied by Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), said Munster, adding that the estimated total cost of acquiring these chips could range between $30 billion and $40 billion.

Reactions from X users quickly followed, with greg, a popular influencer on the platform, offering a blunt reply, &#8220;it&#8217;s over,&#8221; while Hexdline quipped, &#8220;It has never been more over for Tesla than it is now.&#8221;

Others, such as Nova Real Invest, sarcastically praised Cramer's &#8220;golden touch,&#8221; reflecting a rather popular meme in financial circles that his endorsements often precede stock declines, fueled by his mixed track record over the past couple of years.

Why It Matters: Cramer&#8217;s picks are renowned for moving in the opposite direction, giving rise <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/04/32017123/john-oliver-joins-inverse-jim-cramer-craze-says-youd-live-50-years-after-cramer-predicts-y">to the popular meme</a> in financial circles and communities online, with even the likes of talk show host John Oliver joining in on the frenzy.
His reputation for market predictions that often miss the mark has become so well-known that it inspired the creation of the Inverse Cramer ETF by Tuttle Capital Management, designed to bet against his recommendations. The fund has since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/24/01/36793492/exclusive-inverse-cramer-etf-shuts-down-how-the-magnificent-7-stocks-factor-in-and-a-broken-c">been shut down</a>.

Jim Cramer Praises Elon Musk Interview, Endorses Tesla—Will His Call Age Well? Internet Says 'It's Over'

On Tuesday, at Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google I/O 2025, Sergey Brin admitted his past <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31376205/what-went-wrong-with-google-glass-enterprise-inside-look-at-the-discontinued-ar-project">missteps with Google Glass</a>.
What Happened: During a surprise interview, Brin said that he "made a lot of mistakes with Google Glass," adding that he didn't know much about the consumer electronics supply chains or the difficulties involved in building smart glasses at a reasonable price point, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/20/googles-sergey-brin-i-made-a-lot-of-mistakes-with-google-glass/">reported</a> TechCrunch.
Brin then said he is glad that the Sundar Pichai-led company is pursuing the product innovation again with "great partners who are helping us build this."
The Google co-founder also revealed that he's come out of retirement to actively work on Gemini efforts and has been helping the team with multiple projects, including the Veo 3 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42307366/googles-veo-video-generator-arrives-on-cloud-how-quora-and-mondelez-are-using-ai-for-creative-content">video model</a>.

"Anybody who's a computer scientist should not be retired right now," he stated, adding, "They should be working on AI."
Why It's Important: Google is now working with partners like Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) and Xreal Inc. and has decided to invest up to $150 million in eyewear brand Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WRBY#NYSE">WRBY</a>).
Earlier on Tuesday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45509746/google-i-o-2025-a-big-deal-says-gene-munster-sundar-pichais-alphabet-has-no-choice-but-to-disrupt-itself-before-someone-else-does">at the I/O event</a>, Google and Xreal also unveiled Project Aura — the first eyewear to run Android XR. The Pichai-led company also said that it is partnering with Samsung on a separate smart glasses project and plans to release reference hardware later this year, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-20/xreal-and-google-debut-project-aura-ar-glasses-to-rival-meta-s-orion-glasses?srnd=undefined&amp;sref=9hGJlFio">reported</a> Bloomberg.

Xreal CEO Chi Xu said in an interview that Samsung's device is Google&#8217;s answer to Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Vision Pro. Similarly, Xreal's Android XR glasses aim to compete with Meta Platforms, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41084112/mark-zuckerberg-says-orion-is-probably-going-to-be-the-next-major-platform-after-phones-metas-new-ar">augmented reality glasses</a>.&nbsp;
Project Aura glasses are expected to launch between late 2025 and early 2026 and will be priced significantly lower than competitors like Meta and Samsung, likely under $600, the report noted, citing Xu.
Price Action: Alphabet Inc.'s Class A shares fell by 1.54% on Tuesday, with Class C shares down 1.52%. Apple shares slipped 0.92%, while Meta declined 0.52% during the same session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Per Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Alphabet has a growth score of 66.81%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it compares to other companies</a> like Apple and Meta.

Sergey Brin Comes Out Of Retirement To Work On Gemini, Admits He Made A 'Lot Of Mistakes' With Google Glass As Alphabet Ramps Up To Compete With Meta And Apple

America's full retirement age (FRA) for claiming 100 percent of Social Security rises to 67 in 2025, capping a four-decade phase-in that permanently trims checks for anyone filing earlier and rewards those who delay until 70.
Workers who understand the new timetable and the penalties for jumping the gun can still lock in higher benefits despite warnings that the system's main trust fund could run short by 2033.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why FRA Hit 67</h3>
The two-year age hike was baked into the Social Security Amendments of 1983, signed by President Ronald Reagan to shore up a program now paying nearly 74 million Americans. Beginning next year, every new retiree born in 1960 or later must reach 67 to collect an unreduced benefit. Those born in 1959 reach their FRA — 66 years, 10 months — in November.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Cost Of Claiming Early</h3>
You can still file at 62, but doing so slashes the monthly check by up to 30 percent. You get lower benefits if you claim before that retirement age. Every month you claim early, you get a reduction. Wait until 70 and delayed-retirement credits lift payments roughly 8 percent a year, pushing the maximum 2025 benefit above $5,100.

Enough With Protecting Those&#8230;&#8217;</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Medicare Still Turns On At 65</h3>
Turning 65 remains pivotal because it opens the Medicare door, a milestone that "is in many ways more important than the full retirement age," says Gal Wettstein of Boston College's Center for Retirement Research <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2024/12/18/social-security-2025-retirement-age-benefits/77067663007/">tells</a> USA Today. Retirees who claim Social Security early yet exit the workforce before 65 must budget for private coverage until Medicare starts.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Planning Beyond 2025</h3>

Social Security Full Retirement Age Shift Could See Your Check Chopped By 30% — What Everyone Born In 1960 Or Later Must Know

China has threatened legal action against any individual or organization assisting with or implementing U.S. semiconductor restrictions, escalating tensions in the ongoing tech rivalry between the world&#8217;s two largest economies.
What Happened: China&#8217;s commerce ministry said there could be &#8220;corresponding legal liabilities&#8221; for those involved in U.S. measures it characterized as &#8220;discriminatory restrictive measures&#8221; against Chinese firms, Reuters reported. 
The warning comes after the U.S. published guidance last week cautioning companies against using Ascend AI chips from Huawei Technologies.
The dispute highlights growing friction as both nations compete for dominance in advanced technology. Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang recently criticized U.S. chip export controls as &#8220;exactly wrong for America,&#8221; revealing his company wrote off $5.5 billion in inventory and lost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45513246/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-says-chinese-ai-researchers-are-world-class-and-us-companies-are-hiring-a-whole-bunch-of-them">approximately $15 billion in sales</a> due to these restrictions.
&#8220;China&#8217;s doing fantastic, 50% of the world&#8217;s AI researchers are Chinese and you&#8217;re not going to hold them back,&#8221; Huang said at Computex 2025, arguing American companies should be allowed to compete in China to &#8220;offset the trade deficit.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The technology standoff has intensified since April, when China imposed retaliatory tariffs up to 125% on U.S.-made chips, while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44770461/intel-on-slump-as-china-hits-us-made-chips-with-tariffs-amd-and-taiwan-semiconductor-rise-on-exemption-boost">exempting Taiwan-manufactured semiconductor</a>s. This policy benefits companies like Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) and Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) that outsource to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), while potentially harming U.S.-based fabricators like Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).
Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Bill Gates recently noted that export bans have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45342962/bill-gates-slams-trumps-tariffs-we-told-china-to-make-their-own-chips-and-theyre-making-great-progress-warns-its-a-bad-time-to-inte">only accelerated China&#8217;s self-reliance efforts</a>. &#8220;We made clear to them that they needed to make their own chips, and they&#8217;re making great progress on doing that,&#8221; Gates told CNN.
China&#8217;s ministry urged the U.S. to &#8220;abide by international economic and trade rules&#8221; and respect other countries&#8217; technological development rights.

What Happened: Bitcoin tapped $107,000 late evening before pulling back slightly to the $106,000 region. The apex cryptocurrency was just 2.51% shy of its all-time high of $109,114.88.
Ethereum dipped to $2,440 in the early morning but recouped the losses overnight.
May has been a success for these blue-chip currencies. While Bitcoin increased by more than 14% this month, Ethereum rebounded with a 40% gain following months of decline.
Over $212 million in upside bets were liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, while $90 million in shorts were erased.
About $557 million in Bitcoin shorts could be liquidated if the apex cryptocurrency rallies to $109,000.
Bitcoin&#8217;s Open Interest increased by 1.87% in the last 24 hours and by more than 10% in the last week to $74.48 billion, suggesting that fresh money was being injected into derivatives.
The market maintained the "Greed" sentiment, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

Cryptocurrency analyst and investor Reed Carson anticipated a "big move" after analyzing Bitcoin's 4-hour chart.
"Since April bottom, BTC has formed ascending channel and each time a breakout has happened to the upside," Carson stated. "First breakout pumped BTC above $93,000, the second breakout pumped BTC to $105,000 and the upcoming one will send BTC above its previous ATH."

Bitcoin Taps $107,000 Again, Ethereum, Dogecoin Flat: Analyst Says 'Massive' ETF Inflows A Bullish Sign For Future BTC Price Movement

Silicon carbide component manufacturer&nbsp;Wolfspeed Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOLF#NYSE">WOLF</a>) is preparing to file for&nbsp;prepackaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the coming weeks.
What Happened: Facing mounting debt and failed out-of-court restructuring talks with key creditors, the company is reportedly pursuing bankruptcy options, according to a <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/wolfspeed-prepares-to-file-for-bankruptcy-within-weeks-7bd98040">report</a> from the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, citing sources familiar with the matter.
The company, which was expected to benefit from U.S. government efforts to expand domestic semiconductor production through the 2022 CHIPS Act, has struggled to address its $6.5 billion debt, including a $575 million balloon payment due in May 2026.

Wolfspeed is aiming for a bankruptcy plan that would have the support of the majority of its creditors. This comes after rejecting a debtholder restructuring deal in March, following pushback from Apollo Global Management LLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>). 
The deal involved converting some of its convertible debt holdings and loans into equity, which would have diluted Apollo&#8217;s position.
Apollo, which owns $1.5 billion of Wolfspeed&#8217;s debt, sits on top of the company&#8217;s credit stack and has the right to approve any new secured financing deal. It also has a make-whole provision in its agreement, which essentially shields the PE firm from losses in the event of a bankruptcy, according <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/895419/000119312523174504/d462549d8k.htm">to</a> Wolfspeed&#8217;s SEC filings. 
Wolfspeed had previously said it was exploring restructuring or bankruptcy options after difficulties refinancing its debt threatened its ability to access up to $750 million in taxpayer funds through the CHIPS Act. That funding was contingent on the successful refinancing of convertible notes maturing in 2026, 2028, and 2029.
Both Wolfspeed and Apollo have yet to respond to Benzinga&#8217;s requests for a comment on this matter. The story will be updated once we hear back.
Why It Matters: During its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45303071/wolfspeed-stock-slides-after-q3-revenues-miss-estimates-heres-what-to-know">third quarter results</a> two weeks ago, Wolfspeed outlined plans to strengthen its capital structure and improve its path to profitability.
The company recently hired an ex-Micron executive, Robert Feurle, as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44515658/wolfspeed-names-ex-micron-exec-feurle-as-ceo-to-revive-struggling-chipmaker">its new CEO</a>, who comes with several decades of semiconductor experience, to help in its turnaround efforts.
Price Action: Wolfspeed&#8217;s shares were down 10.32% on Tuesday, ending the day at $3.13 per share, and are down 60.38% after hours. The stock is down 52.79% year-to-date.

Wolfspeed Reportedly Prepping Bankruptcy Filing After Snubbing Debt Deals, Buckling Under $6.5 Billion Burden—Stock Plunges Over 60%

On Tuesday, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk found himself in a heated discussion with CNBC's David Faber regarding his involvement in federal spending cuts under President Donald Trump&#8217;s administration.
What Happened: The conversation, part of CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Power Lunch,&#8221; initially centered on Tesla and autonomous vehicles but soon shifted to Musk&#8217;s role with the Department of Government Efficiency, <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/technology/5310122-elon-musk-tensions-cnbc-interview/">reported</a> The Hill.
Faber questioned Musk about the tangible impact of DOGE&#8217;s cost-cutting efforts, highlighting the criticism Musk has faced.
Musk responded, &#8220;We are advisers. We are not—we're not kings here.&#8221;
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45510245/elon-musk-was-once-a-microsoft-intern-now-his-company-is-bringing-grok-to-azure-incredibly-important-for-ai-to-be-grounded-in-reality-xai-ceo-tells-satya-nadella">Elon Musk Was Once A Microsoft Intern — Now His Company Is Bringing Grok To Azure: &#8216;Incredibly Important For AI To Be Grounded In Reality,&#8217; xAI CEO Tells Satya Nadella</a>
The tech mogul then interrupted Faber, saying, &#8220;So why are you attacking this? Given that we've made so much progress?&#8221;
Faber then said that he was simply asking questions, not attacking. The exchange began when Faber mentioned Musk&#8217;s initial goal of cutting $1 trillion in federal spending, which Musk admitted was not immediately feasible, the report said.
Musk said that DOGE has managed to cut nearly $160 billion in spending, though Faber noted discrepancies in reported figures. Musk explained the methodology behind the numbers, while Faber suggested alternative budget strategies.
Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s involvement with DOGE has been a topic of debate since his appointment. Despite efforts to cut costs, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44778750/musks-government-efficiency-push-falls-short-as-treasury-data-shows-spending-up-sharply-under-trumps-second-term-report">federal spending has reportedly increased</a> by $154 billion since President Trump&#8217;s return to office, according to Treasury data.
Earlier this month, Musk shared mixed sentiments about his first 100 days in office, noting some progress within the DOGE while also <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45163408/doge-not-as-effective-as-id-like-says-elon-musk-calls-reform-really-difficult-like-changing-direction-of-a-fleet-of-supertankers">recognizing its limitations</a>. &#8220;We haven't been as effective as I'd like.&#8221;
Last month, during <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">Tesla's first quarter earnings</a> call, Musk announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45381782/elon-musk-vows-to-spend-less-time-in-white-house-doge-office-investors-warn-the-damage-is-done-and-teslas-troubles-are-far-from-over">plans to reduce his time at DOGE</a>. This decision comes amid investor concerns that his political role has distracted from Tesla&#8217;s core operations.
Price Action: Tesla shares edged up 0.51% on Tuesday, ending the session at $343.82. The stock saw a marginal after-hours gain of 0.015%, based on <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
According to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Tesla holds a growth score of 45.44%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to compare it with other leading stocks</a>.

Toll Brothers, D-Wave Quantum, Palo Alto Networks, Warby Parker, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Businessman and television personality Kevin O&#8217;Leary deemed Sen.&nbsp;Elizabeth Warren&#8217;s&nbsp;(D-Mass.) opposition to the stablecoin legislation &#8220;un-American&#8221; on Tuesday.
What Happened:&nbsp;O&#8217;Leary&nbsp;took to X to express his disagreement with&nbsp;the Democratic lawmaker&nbsp;over the GENIUS Act that aims to establish the first U.S. regulatory framework for issuers of stablecoins.
The &#8220;Shark&#8221; dismissed Warren&#8217;s criticism of the bill as a &#8220;Trump product,&#8221; arguing that it is crucial for&nbsp;the future of U.S. financial&nbsp;dominance.
&#8220;This bill has nothing to do with Trump. This is about a digital payment system that establishes the U.S. dollar as the default currency around the world for price discovery on every commodity on earth,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary&nbsp;said.
He accused Warren of taking an &#8220;un-American&#8221; position and one that could lead to other fiat currencies challenging the dollar&#8217;s dominance.
&#8220;She's confusing politics with progress, and this time, it could cost America dearly,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary&nbsp;added. &#8220;That's not just wrong. It's dangerous.
Warren&#8217;s office didn&#8217;t immediately return Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment.

Mr Wonderful Kevin O' Leary Says Elizabeth Warren Taking An 'Un American' Position By Challenging Crypto Law: 'Bill Has Nothing To Do With Trump'

The Securities and Exchange Commission leveled fraud charges against cryptocurrency firm Unicoin and its top three executives Tuesday for misleading investors and raising over $100 million in the process.
What Happened: The SEC stated in a press release that Unicoin and&nbsp;its CEO and Board Chairman&nbsp;Alex Konanykhin&nbsp;lured investors with false promises. The company had claimed that its tokens were backed by valuable real estate assets. However, the SEC alleges that these assets were significantly less valuable than Unicoin had stated.
Mark Cave, Associate Director in&nbsp;the SEC's Division of Enforcement, stated, &#8220;the majority of the company's&nbsp;sales of rights certificates were&nbsp;illusory.&#8221; In addition to this, Unicoin and Konanykhin are accused of violating&nbsp;federal securities laws by engaging&nbsp;in unregistered offers and sales&nbsp;of rights certificates.

The Senate has passed a bill aimed at removing federal taxes on tips, marking a key victory for President Donald Trump and his administration&#8217;s agenda.
What Happened: The Senate approved a bill on Tuesday that aims to remove federal taxes on tips, as reported by&nbsp;<a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5310424-senate-no-tax-on-tips/">The Hill</a>. This legislative move, supported by Democrats, fulfills a key campaign promise of&nbsp;President Trump.
Sen.&nbsp;Jacky Rosen&nbsp;(D-Nev.) introduced the bill, expecting opposition. However, Sen.&nbsp;Ted Cruz&nbsp;(R-Texas) did not block it, allowing it to pass through unanimous consent. Rosen highlighted the significance of this bill for Nevada, emphasizing the financial relief it offers to hospitality and service workers facing rising costs.
Cruz praised Trump&#8217;s &#8220;political genius&#8221; in removing taxes on tips.

Trump initially proposed the idea&nbsp;during a campaign stop in&nbsp;Nevada, a state with a high number of tipped workers. Cruz acknowledged the efforts of Nevada senators Rosen and&nbsp;Catherine Cortez Masto&nbsp;(D-Nev.), noting that about 25% of Nevada&#8217;s workforce depends on tips.
The bill, known as the No Tax on Tips Act, will now proceed to the House, where it is anticipated to pass one way or another either as another legislation advanced on Monday. Cruz expressed confidence that the bill will soon become law, offering a new tax deduction of up to $25,000 for tips.
Why It Matters: On Monday, a broader legislative package, dubbed by Trump as &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45506863/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-advances-heres-who-wins-and-loses">One, Big Beautiful Bill</a>, advanced in the congress. That bill seeks to extend The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 and eliminate federal taxes on tips and overtime pay.
While the tax exemption on tips is seen as a boon for service workers, it could have significant fiscal implications. A report by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) suggests that the tax-free tips proposal might <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/06/39350922/trumps-tax-free-tips-proposal-may-inflate-federal-deficit-by-up-to-250b-report">increase the federal deficit</a> by up to $250 billion over the next decade. 
This potential deficit increase is comparable to the projected revenue loss from the extension of the 2017 tax cuts for small businesses and pass-through companies, which are set to expire soon. The proposal is also viewed as a strategic move to garner support from younger voters, particularly in states like Nevada, where a significant portion of the workforce relies on tips.
