Atlassian Teamwork Lab head Dr. Molly Sands said many companies are adopting AI in the wrong order: they are speeding up individual employees without redesigning how teams work together. Speaking at VB Transform 2026 in a VentureBeat-reported session sponsored by Atlassian, Sands argued that this mismatch helps explain why many organizations still struggle to show clear returns from AI spending. Data from the Atlassian 2026 State of Teams Report points to that gap. The survey covered 12,000 knowledge workers worldwide and about 200 Fortune 1000 senior executives. While 89% of executives said employees became faster after using AI, only 6% could point to a clear ROI case. Roughly 14% of teams were able to turn AI usage into real value. Sands said the teams that perform well tend to share three traits: strong context, redesigned workflows, and a culture that supports learning and experimentation. She also recommended using AI working agreements at the start of projects to define what AI should handle, what it should avoid, and which agents and skills should be shared across the team.

Russia’s State Duma has passed the second and third readings of bill No. 1194918-8, titled "Digital Currency and Digital Rights," according to Odaily. The bill sets out a licensed regulatory framework for the country’s crypto market, covering crypto exchanges, brokers, asset managers, and custodians. Under the proposal, the Central Bank of Russia would be responsible for issuing licenses and supervising the sector. The bill draws a clear line between cross-border business use and domestic payments. It would allow companies to use digital assets for foreign trade and cross-border settlements, while keeping a strict ban on the use of cryptocurrency for paying for goods and services inside Russia. Its core provisions are scheduled to take effect on Sept. 1, 2026, with some supporting rules given a transition period through July 1, 2027. The bill has completed the Duma stage, but it still needs review by the Federation Council and must be signed by President Vladimir Putin before it can formally take effect as federal law.

Midnight Foundation said the Wanchain Cardano BNB bridge was hit by a security incident. In response, several major exchanges, including KuCoin, Kraken, Binance, Bybit, OKX, and MEXC, moved to limit the movement of stolen assets. The measures cited in the announcement include freezing related accounts and addresses, blacklisting the attacker’s wallet, and suspending deposits and withdrawals for the NIGHT token. According to the statement, the exchanges characterized the case as an isolated third-party bridge vulnerability rather than an issue tied to Midnight Network itself. The same notice said the incident is unrelated to the Midnight Network mainnet or to the NIGHT asset. No additional loss figures or technical details were disclosed in the source material.
