Bitcoin’s year is usually narrated through the dollar chart, a familiar frame that captured a chaotic fourth quarter where BTC whipsawed through a violent two-month range.
Price climbed to roughly $124,700 in late October before breaking down toward the mid-$80,000s in November, a swing that erased more than $40,000 from peak to trough.
The volatility was loud enough that traders spent much of...
When Binance rolled out its new “Binance Junior” accounts this month, the announcement landed with the kind of split reaction usually reserved for children’s TikTok privacy updates.
On paper, the product is tightly controlled, restricted to a savings lane, and anchored to a parent’s KYC identity: there are no trading buttons, no margin sliders, no instant swap prompts.
Yet, as soon as a six-year-...
YouTube has added PayPal’s PYUSD stablecoin as a payout option for U.S. creators. The choice routes through PayPal’s payout infrastructure rather than requiring YouTube to custody or transfer crypto directly.
According to Fortune, PayPal crypto chief May Zabaneh confirmed the arrangement. Google and YouTube also confirmed PYUSD was added as a payout option for eligible creators.
The change lands...
The Depository Trust Company, the U.S. financial market infrastructure provider that clears and settles securities trades, said the SEC has given it informal approval to move ahead with a tokenization service for some assets it already holds in custody, without facing enforcement action.
The letter sets conditions for a time-limited rollout and ongoing reporting while keeping the underlying...
The People's Bank of China just logged its thirteenth straight month of gold purchases, extending one of the most deliberate reserve-management campaigns of the post-crisis era.
These purchases signal that the world's second-largest economy is shifting deeper into sovereign-controlled, seizure-resistant assets.
Against this backdrop, crypto analysts see the PBoC's buying streak not as a bullish...
Bitcoin has a historical tendency to punish consensus, but the price action following the Federal Reserve’s December meeting offered a particularly sharp lesson in market structure over macro headlines.
On paper, the setup appeared constructive: The central bank delivered its third rate cut of the year, trimming the benchmark by 25 basis points, while Chair Jerome Powell signaled that further...
U.S. federal courts have imposed about 83 years of prison terms on crypto company leaders since early 2024.
That total grew yesterday with Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon’s 15-year sentence tied to the TerraUSD and Luna collapse.
Kwon was sentenced in December 2025 after pleading guilty to two fraud charges. According to AP News, the judge went beyond prosecutors’ request.
Terra’s failure...
Oracle lost roughly $80 billion in market value on Dec. 11 when revenue missed expectations, and management hiked AI-related capex from $35 billion to about $50 billion, funded in part with rising debt.
The stock dropped up to 16%, dragging Nvidia, AMD, and the broader Nasdaq lower.
Reports framed the move as fanning “AI bubble” fears, with investors questioning whether the payoff from building...
The US Congress is closer than ever to defining federal rules for digital assets, yet the question of whether stablecoins can provide yield has slowed the process more than agency turf battles or token classification.
Notably, the House has already advanced the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, outlining a path for certain tokens to move from securities regulation to CFTC oversight.
At the same...
Belarus expanded platform blocking in December, tightening access to exchanges and reinforcing a High-Tech Park perimeter for residents.
The move fits a wider access playbook across EMEA and APAC that now uses telecom blocklists, app-store removals, and KYC gates to shape who reaches the same BTC and USDT order books.
The practical result is a de facto return of capital controls in a digital...
