A student named Eleanor Mackintosh designed a 3D robot fish that vacuums microplastics from waterways that can be used for sampling and recycling or simply to minimize plastic pollution in the water bodies. Mackintosh named her fish ‘Gilbert’. The 3D fish can use its set of gills that will filter the water and keep the microplastics inside its container as it swims. Her team of researchers believes that the extracted microplastics can be recycled at the discretion of the user, one step towards micro-cleaning the water bodies.
Whatsapp stopped working for almost two hours yesterday and it drove people crazy! Users all over the world were facing inconvenience for the inability to send messages and make Whatsapp calls.

The lower house of the UK Parliament voted in favor of adding cryptocurrencies to the scope of activities to be regulated through the proposed Financial Services and Markets Bill, which became well-renowned for extending payment rules to stablecoins as well.

The draft bill also includes measures to extend the existing regulations for payments around cryptos pegged to the value of other assets like the US dollar or gold.

The company’s chief business officer blamed a slowdown in the revenue growth in part on reduced ad spending by crypto companies and other financial firms.
