Hardware wallets might be able to protect your keys, but the paperwork from buying them could expose your identity.To buy a hardware wallet, you give a company your name and address so it can send you a device designed to put you in control of your money.

August’s inflation report left the Federal Reserve with a mixed signal: gasoline drove much of the headline increase, but monthly core inflation accelerated. That combination kept Governor Christopher Waller’s conditional case for a rate hike in play even as Bitcoin held its daily gain.CryptoSlate’s live Bitcoin market data had BTC at $78,683, up 2.08% over 24 hours, when trading closed in the US for the week. In contrast, Reuters reported that futures had moved to about an 85% probability of a quarter-point increase at the Fed’s September 15-16 meeting, from about 70% before the inflation report. CME says its FedWatch…

When you send money to someone abroad, the confirmation on your phone is only your half of the transaction: the other half belongs to the person who has to use it. Their rent may be due in local currency. Their nearest cash collection point may be across town. They may want to spend some of the money immediately and keep the rest in dollars.Transfers can take seconds and leave recipients with an afternoon’s work. Stablecoin payments compete in that everyday setting. These privately issued digital tokens are designed to track a currency, usually the dollar, and move across blockchain networks.…

Between Aug. 17 and Sept. 7, its treasury Bitcoin holdings increased from 3,145 BTC to 3,521 BTC, roughly 12%.However, Bitcoin per share barely moved under the company’s calculation, which includes some shares…
Imagine your company has enough money to pay a supplier, but the money is in its Singapore account and the bill must be paid from New York. If the transfer between those accounts has to wait until Monday, having enough cash overall doesn’t solve the immediate problem.Businesses work around this by moving money early or keeping extra cash in accounts where they might need it. Both tie up money that could be used elsewhere, and sometimes a company even borrows in one country while its own cash is available in another.Banks want to make those transfers easier. On Sept. 5,…

Blockstream is refusing to pay the Liquid attacker nearly 600 Bitcoin (roughly $50 million), escalating a dispute over how the crypto industry should reward partial restitution.The standoff follows an unusual recovery from the Sept. 6 exploit, when a vulnerability allowed the attacker to create about 4,000 unbacked L-BTC and withdraw roughly 3,996 real BTC through SideSwap. The attacker returned 3,400 BTC after Blockstream patched affected nodes, then demanded a 10% bounty paid from Blockstream’s own funds and warned that holders could otherwise bear a roughly 15% shortfall.Table compiles on-chain messages attributed to the Liquid hackers and Blockstream, including PGP-signed exchanges and…
