Anti-corruption protests led by Nepal's Generation Z forced Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli to resign Tuesday, officials said. The grassroots movement began after the government banned social media apps September 4, sparking widespread demonstrations across the Himalayan nation.

Protests turned violent when crowds breached restricted areas Monday. Security forces used live ammunition, killing at least 51 people over two days. Mobs later torched parliament buildings and government offices throughout Kathmandu.

Former chief justice Sushila Karki was sworn in Friday as Nepal's first female prime minister and caretaker leader. She announced new elections within six months.

Major payment companies including Visa, Stripe, and PayPal have adopted stablecoin technology for faster, cheaper transfers, industry executives announced. The digital tokens maintain steady $1 values unlike volatile Bitcoin, making them practical for everyday transactions and cross-border payments.

Stablecoins evolved through regulatory failures and compliance improvements after 2022's market crashes. President Trump signed the GENIUS Act establishing federal oversight, while leading issuer Circle holds 93 percent reserves in U.S. Treasuries, monthly attestations show.

Nearly every major financial institution now explores stablecoin integration. The technology transformed from libertarian experiment into credible global finance infrastructure through enhanced consumer protections and regulatory frameworks.

Stablecoins, explained.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk purchased $1 billion in company stock Friday, regulatory filings revealed Monday. Tesla shares surged 5 percent in morning trading, The Associated Press reported. It marks Musk's first major purchase in over five years.

The purchase coincides with Tesla's board considering a decade-long compensation package for Musk (WSJ). If performance targets are met, the plan could make him a trillionaire, filings show. Shareholders vote on the proposal in November.

Musk faced criticism earlier this year after joining Trump's Department of Government Efficiency. He stepped down in May amid a public feud with the president, reports said.

Why do we skydive in New Zealand but avoid karaoke at home? Travel loosens our usual identity roles, reduces fear of judgment through anonymity, and floods the brain with dopamine from novel experiences. We attribute courage to the place, not ourselves—creating safe psychological distance that lets us experiment without threatening our core identity.
