Bitcoin’s recent rebound came as traders raised the probability of a December Federal Reserve rate cut, the dollar eased, and attention turned to who will lead the central bank after Jerome Powell’s term ends in 2026. Futures markets moved the odds of a 25-basis-point cut this month into the mid-to-high 80% range, a shift that loosened financial conditions and coincided with a ninth straight...
North Korean operatives were caught on camera, live, after security researchers lured them into a booby-trapped “developer laptop,” capturing how the Lazarus-linked crew tried to blend into a US crypto job pipeline using legitimate AI hiring tools and cloud services. The evolution in state-sponsored cybercrime was reportedly captured in real time by researchers at BCA LTD, NorthScan, and the...
Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, is considering a pivot that would fundamentally alter the risk profile of the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin treasury. For a decade, the company sold Wall Street on a singular thesis: it was a digital vault, offering unencumbered exposure to Bitcoin without the risks of custody or counterparty risk. That stand is changing as it is now exploring an...
Anthropic’s Frontier Red Team spent the past year teaching AI agents to behave like professional DeFi attackers. The agents learned to fork blockchains, write exploit scripts, drain liquidity pools, and pocket the proceeds, all in Docker containers where no real funds were at risk. On Dec. 1, the team published results that should recalibrate how protocol developers think about security: when...
The conventional wisdom says veteran holders don’t sell into weakness. They accumulate through drawdowns, harvest gains during euphoria, and otherwise sit still while newer cohorts churn. Late 2025 is testing that model. Across Ethereum, XRP, and pockets of the DeFi stack, dormant whales are moving supply to exchanges as mid-term buyers flee, creating a bifurcated distribution pattern that...
BlackRock, the largest asset management firm in the world, has described tokenization as the most critical market upgrade since the early internet. On the other hand, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) describes it as a volatile, untested architecture that can amplify financial shocks at machine speed. Both institutions are looking at the same innovation. Yet, the distance between their...
Payout speed in crypto casinos is often described in minutes or hours. However, the real drivers live beneath those numbers. Transaction confirmation policy, liquidity staging, internal queue logic, and wallet routing can all influence whether a withdrawal feels instant or drawn out. Many people looking into this are really trying to answer one question: Is the delay blockchain-related, or...
Bitcoin (BTC) jumped 11% from its Dec. 1 lows at $83,822.76 to over $93,000 overnight, driven by a convergence of macro and micro developments. The Federal Reserve formally ended quantitative tightening (QT) on Dec. 1, coinciding with the New York Fed conducting approximately $25 billion in morning repo operations and another $13.5 billion overnight, the largest such injections since 2020. The...
The broader Solana memecoin economy is currently facing a liquidity crisis and collapsing volumes, but one asset has successfully decoupled from the sector-wide decline. According to CryptoSlate data, PIPPIN, a token born from an AI experiment in early 2024, has emerged as one of the best-performing crypto tokens in the last 30 days, surging 556% to defy a market trend defined by capital flight...
Bitcoin was launched fifteen years ago. The industry has ballooned into a nearly $4 trillion ecosystem, yet Satoshi’s vision of everyday payments remains largely unfulfilled. The hope for peer-to-peer payments has shifted to stablecoins. But rather than replacing banks, stablecoins risk becoming bank-like infrastructure. Stronger regulation in the U.S. and Europe may push them toward centralized...
