Here’s what happened in crypto today

Today in crypto, Crypto.com’s personal AI agent platform remains in “stealth mode” nearly eight months after its high-profile Super Bowl debut; Bitget’s CEO said she is pessimistic about recovering much of the $388 million stolen in last week’s hack; and Greece added its first four providers to Europe’s MiCA register.Crypto.com AI agent still in ‘stealth mode’ nearly 8 months after Super Bowl debutCrypto.com says its personal AI agent venture, pitched to perform a broad set of tasks from trading stocks to updating online dating profiles, is still under construction, months after a Super Bowl debut that got so much attention it crashed the website.Ai.com, a business line of Crypto.com, promoted the launch of its AI platform in a $15 million ad during the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl in February. The website crashed within minutes as curious users flocked to reserve a handle for their own personal AI agent. However, nearly eight months later, the website continues to display a message that AI agent generation is queued due to high demand.Speaking to Cointelegraph, a spokesperson for Crypto.com confirmed the AI agent platform is still being worked on. “ai.com continues building in stealth mode; we are happy to provide more details when we fully launch to the public,” they said. The prolonged wait comes as rival exchanges have already begun offering AI assistants focused on narrower tasks, such as trading and portfolio management. Bitget CEO doubts full recovery of $388 million stolen in hackBitget CEO Gracy Chen said she is “not very optimistic” that the crypto exchange will recover much of the $388 million stolen in last week’s security breach.In an interview with Cointelegraph, Chen pointed to the $1.5 billion Bybit hack in February 2025 as a reference point, noting that only a small percentage of the stolen assets have been frozen or recovered. She said the experience shows how difficult it can be to retrieve funds once hackers begin moving them across the crypto ecosystem.The exchange has launched a bounty program in response to the attack, offering 5% of funds frozen and another 5% for assets successfully recovered.Bitget initially estimated losses from the attack at $352 million, then raised the figure to $388 million after reviewing additional transfers. Chen initially pointed to evidence suggesting North Korean involvement, although the exchange has continued investigating the source of the breach.The exchange has also begun restoring withdrawals in stages, starting with Bitcoin on Monday and Ether on Tuesday.Greece gets first MiCA entrants as watchdog denies Binance-Lagarde claimGreece has entered the EU’s crypto regulatory register for the first time, with four providers added.Four Greek providers — BCash, Xenios Blockchain Group, Capital Wallet Greece and Piraeus Bank — appeared on the European Securities and Markets Authority’s (ESMA) Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) register updated Thursday.Six other crypto-asset service providers from Germany, France and Slovenia were added, bringing the register to 359 unique providers.The distinction of becoming Greece’s first MiCA-authorized provider could instead have gone to Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume. A Greek authorization would have allowed Binance to offer services throughout the EU under MiCA’s passporting system, but the exchange withdrew its application on June 24 before the Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC) issued a formal decision.Nearly three months later, the Wall Street Journal reported that European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde had intervened to block the application. The Journal said HCMC denied that its officials made the comments attributed to them but did not elaborate. The regulator has now expanded on that denial in comments to Cointelegraph.
