XRP is in its deepest losing streak in more than a decade, even as Ripple aggressively expands into corporate finance and institutional infrastructure. The disconnect is forcing a key market question: why isn’t that momentum showing up in price?
XRP price is in its longest losing streak since 2014, a slide that has left one of the market’s oldest large-cap tokens searching for a fresh catalyst...
A recent paper by the Bitcoin Policy Institute on Taiwan opens with a familiar argument that the country's reserves are overconcentrated in dollars. Gold underperforms its potential, and Bitcoin could complement both.
Readers who stop there miss the more consequential claim buried in the blockade-and-invasion framework on pages 5 through 7, where the paper is trying to redefine what makes a...
XRP enters an identity crisis as oil, inflation fears, and dollar strength hit the market all at once
XRP has reached the hardest phase of the cycle. The asset spent much of the year carrying a cleaner institutional narrative than most large-cap altcoins.
CryptoSlate has already tracked institutional migration into Ripple-linked products, ETF resilience tied to Ripple’s expanding footprint, and...
The CLARITY Act entered Washington as a bid to impose a durable market structure on crypto. It now sits at the center of a four-way fight over who gets to define that structure, who gets paid inside it, who supervises it, and how much of the existing financial rulebook survives the rewrite.
The bill still includes broad language for jurisdictional clarity, with the Senate Banking Committee...
Bitcoin spent the past 24 hours returning to the key levels on my channel map rather than continuing its breakout. It tested a boundary, failed to convert that test into acceptance, and rotated lower into the next pocket of support memory.
Bitcoin price slid from the upper $68,000s and low $69,000s to around $66,400 by late morning in Europe on April 2. The 24-hour move came in at roughly 3%,...
Treasury's first proposed GENIUS rule landed on April 1 as a notice of proposed rulemaking.
The text inside it builds the operational architecture for US stablecoin governance, addressing which institutions may issue payment stablecoins, under what conditions, and at what scale before federal oversight becomes mandatory.
Why this matters: This shifts stablecoins from a fragmented regulatory...
On Mar. 31, Moody's assigned provisional Ba2 ratings to up to $100 million in taxable revenue bonds for the Waverose Finance Project. The bonds are secured by a loan to NH CleanSpark Borrower Trust 2026-1, with Bitcoin (BTC) as the pledged collateral.
Those numbers set the conditions under which traditional finance agreed to work with Bitcoin at all: 72.06 cents of credit for every dollar of...
The core change is a 100% rakeback mechanic applied to the first nine loyalty levels. During this introductory window, which covers up to $1,000 in cumulative wagers, the platform returns the entirety of its house margin to the player. The expected casino profit during this phase is effectively zero, with Rakebit covering the cost as a user acquisition incentive.
Once players advance past Level 9...
What looks like a geopolitical threat aimed at US multinationals could quickly become a crypto story too.
That is because several of the companies threatened by Iran now sit inside the infrastructure, payments, and corporate treasury layers that parts of the digital-asset industry rely on.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the IRGC warned that US companies in the region would be targeted from...
Bitcoin is pushing back toward $70,000 as macro pressure eases, but each attempt is still being sold into. The market is improving on the outside while failing to resolve a key internal constraint.
Macro relief improves the backdrop as Bitcoin meets a crowded zone above $70,000
