A quiet legal maneuver to seize title to more than $200 billion in dormant Bitcoin, including Satoshi Nakamoto’s, has encountered a fundamental flaw.A lost Bitcoin wallet lawsuit in New York now faces direct on-chain evidence that supposedly abandoned addresses are actively transferring billions of dollars in BTC, fracturing the plaintiffs’ core legal premise.The dispute turns on whether dormant Bitcoin addresses can be treated as abandoned property when the coins remain under private-key control.Since a pair of anonymous Wyoming limited liability companies filed a lawsuit seeking to claim 39,069 inactive Bitcoin addresses as lost property, 52 of those specific addresses have transferred roughly 34,335…
The FCC’s proposed robocall rule, published May 26 under CG Docket Nos. 17-59 and 02-278, asks whether originating voice service providers should collect and retain customer names, physical addresses, government-issued identification numbers, alternate telephone numbers, and supporting verification records before granting service.The agency proposes a four-year retention window once the customer relationship ends, a $2,500 per-call base forfeiture for KYC violations, and comments close on June 25.The FCC frames the proposal around the problem that illegal robocalls cost Americans billions of dollars in fraud and wasted time, and the agency argues that originating providers are best positioned to stop illegal…
Stablecoin regulation converts issuers into psuedo-banks while adding a barrier to entry for smaller players
Three federal agencies have proposed rules that would make stablecoin issuers operate like banks. The Treasury wants them to run anti-money-laundering and sanctions programs.The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) wants a weekly confidential report and a quarterly financial report from each one, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) wants Bank Secrecy Act obligations applied to the issuers it supervises.If adopted, these proposals will turn the issuance of a dollar-pegged token into a job that requires customer screening, transaction monitoring, suspicious activity reporting, reserve disclosures, and a steady stream of data to a primary regulator.The next phase…
The Jaredfromsubway MEV bot, linked to roughly 70% of Ethereum sandwich attacks, lost more than $7.5 million in an allowance drain after its automated system authorized attacker-controlled contracts to spend its tokens.The bot, known as Jaredfromsubway.eth, approved a series of transactions that appeared to be part of profitable trading routes. Those permissions remained active, allowing the attacker to remove wrapped ether and two major stablecoins from contracts associated with the operation.The incident effectively caused one of Ethereum’s largest extractive trading systems to approve its own theft. It also highlights a vulnerability facing automated traders that must evaluate markets, authorize contracts,…
Zodia Markets, the crypto subsidiary majority-owned by Standard Chartered, processed $3.4 billion in transactions involving Turkish lira stablecoins in 2025, enough to make the lira its second-most-used stablecoin currency behind the dollar, ahead of the euro and every other G10 currency.Dollar-pegged tokens, led by Tether and Circle’s USDC, still dwarfed everything at $110.5 billion, but euro-pegged stablecoins came in at only in the tens of millions, trailing a currency whose home economy is a fraction of the eurozone’s size.This doesn’t look good for Europe, where a consortium of banks is preparing to launch a regulated euro stablecoin under MiCA while the European Central Bank…
Morgan Stanley’s proposed 0.14% ETH and SOL fees could turn the next crypto ETF race into a price fight
Morgan Stanley filed amended registration statements for proposed Ethereum and Solana ETF trusts on June 18, setting a 0.14% annual delegated sponsor fee on both products.Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas described the proposed fee as the lowest among ETH and SOL products worldwide.The ETH trust, expected to trade on NYSE Arca under the ticker MSSE, intends to track ether and staking rewards from a portion of its holdings. The SOL trust (MSOL) intends to stake up to 100% of its Solana.BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHA) carries a 0.25% sponsor fee, Grayscale’s mini Ether (ETH) product sits at 0.15%,…
Bitdeer’s latest operating update has revealed a concrete insight into the recent Bitcoin miner-AI pivot: the company produced far more Bitcoin but ended the month with far fewer coins than it held a year earlier.The company reported 921 BTC mined in May 2026, up 370% year over year, while BTC held at month-end stood at 171. In its May 2025 update, Bitdeer reported that it had mined 196 BTC and held 1,351 BTC.That split sets up a sell-pressure question inside the miner-AI pivot. Bitdeer is asking investors to value a mining fleet, proprietary ASICs, power sites, AI cloud capacity, and…
The WLD token surged 149.6% over the past month, XLM climbed 54%, JTO posted a 46.7% gain, and HYPE set a new all-time high of $77 on June 16. Yet the market dominance of the altcoin cohort excluding Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins slipped from 21.41% to 21.16% over the same period and is down from 23.55% at the start of the year, according to CoinGecko data.Other altcoin gains over the past 30 days include NEAR up 28.3%, LIT up 31%, and AERO up 17.6%. Over seven days, the leaderboard extended further: JTO added 42.5%, AERO 36.8%, WLD 33%, and UNI,…
Good news for the American worker came at the worst possible moment for Bitcoin. Initial jobless claims fell by 4,000 to 226,000 for the week ending June 13. Layoffs are in the historically low range they’ve held for most of the post-pandemic era, and the unemployment rate has remained at 4.3% for a third straight month.These numbers would look unambiguously healthy in almost any other setting. But Bitcoin didn’t seem to agree and slid below $64,000, down almost 3% on the day, after touching an intraday high of $66,315 the previous afternoon.BTC spent the spring positioned as an asset waiting…
The Bank of Japan raised its benchmark interest rate to 1% on June 16, the highest level the country has seen since September 1995 and the furthest point yet in a normalization campaign that has slowly dismantled three decades of near-free money.Going into the decision, the track record pointed one way: every one of Governor Kazuo Ueda’s rate increases since March 2024 had been followed by a Bitcoin drawdown of 18% to 33%, and the August 2024 surprise hike sent the price from roughly $64,000 to $49,000 inside 48 hours, erasing around $600 billion in crypto market value.This time the…
