Conspiracy theories about the facemask’s role in combating the spread of the deadly coronavirus refuse to fizzle away. People are increasingly questioning their need even as the U.S continues to register record numbers of infections at the back of one of the world’s highest death rates. Some people have already found a way to fuel the fire, using footage of Dr. Anthony Fauci to question and criticize the face mask’s role in the fight against COVID-19, or even images from opening night of the Washington Nationals baseball game where he sat isolated in a nearly empty stadium.
While the video has been viewed over 2.5 million times on Facebook, it omits a quote by the infectious disease expert on purpose to perpetuate wrong and misleading information. Dr. Fauci is on record reiterating his support for a face mask as the understanding of COVID-19 improved.

The Office of the Comptroller of Currency has set the stage for cryptocurrency mainstream adoption in the U.S. In a public letter, the department has made it clear that national banks across the country can hold onto cryptographic keys for cryptocurrency wallets paving the way for banks to start holding digital assets for clients.
The declaration marks a major milestone in the evolution of cryptocurrency that have become part and parcel of people’s lives. Previously, crypto exchanges, as well as digital wallets, were the only ones offering custody services for digital assets. That is set to change as large financial institutions at the heart of the U.S financial system, can now venture into the booming crypto world, conversely, fuel mainstream adoption.
