GoMining’s GoBTC Pay Bitcoin checkout system now has a live integration surface for its biggest claim: BTC payments that feel instant when settlement is routed through the miner running the rails.The company said its Gen1 SDK and API are live on June 19, giving merchants and wallet providers a path for Bitcoin checkout through a miner-operated settlement system.The design keeps BTC as the payment asset at the point of sale while routing acceptance and settlement through GoMining’s mining infrastructure. The Lightning Network, wrapped BTC, sidechains, and forced fiat conversion sit outside the path GoMining describes. Related ReadingBitcoin all the things…
The banking group, ICBA, is asking the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City to turn Kraken’s Fed account into an active renewal test before the initial one-year term expires.In a June 18 letter, the community-bank trade group urged the Kansas City Fed to immediately review whether Kraken Financial’s limited-purpose account remains consistent with the Fed’s account-access guidelines and to consider further restrictions, suspension, non-renewal, or termination if warranted.The request changes the tone around a limited-purpose Fed account that Kraken had framed in March as a direct-settlement milestone for crypto.The Kansas City Fed approved Wyoming-based Payward Financial, dba Kraken Financial, for…
Europe’s Bitcoin treasury trade is moving from accumulation headlines into financing design.Capital B now has shareholder authority for a huge capital and credit toolkit, while BTC AB is testing investor demand for a preference-share structure before its June 30 subscription deadline.The shared promise is higher Bitcoin per fully diluted share. The shareholder risk is that dilution, credit capacity, preference dividends, and redemption terms become the story before any added Bitcoin improves the per-share claim.For Bitcoin treasury companies, the financing structure now matters as much as the size of the Bitcoin stack.That test sharpened this week after Capital B said shareholders…
Europe’s MiCA deadline is turning access and infrastructure into the same question: which crypto apps remain available, and who controls the rails underneath them?BitGo Europe GmbH announced a partnership with Bielik.io, a Warsaw-based crypto trading platform, to support regulated trading access across the EEA by integrating BitGo Europe’s Crypto-as-a-Service infrastructure.Through that integration, eligible Bielik.io users are expected to access deposits, supported digital asset trading, and custody via Bielik’s mobile app, while BitGo Europe provides the regulated infrastructure beneath.The deal is small enough to look like a normal platform partnership. It is also specific enough to show one route smaller European…
The next fight over crypto perpetual futures regulation is moving into the agency comment file: a place built for lawyers, incumbents, startups, and public-interest groups.The Commodity Futures Trading Commission and Securities and Exchange Commission opened the process June 18, seeking public comment on how to further define swaps, security-based swaps, mixed swaps, novel products, event contracts, and possible alternative compliance approaches.That now makes SEC-CFTC product definitions a market-structure issue that extends beyond a single listing.The joint request for comment turns the fight over crypto perpetuals and prediction-market products into a formal venue before the next wave of approvals reaches the…

Africa has never been friendly to crypto. Despite incredible adoption numbers on the continent, African governments have met almost every crypto discussion with bans or warnings.However, some of its largest economies have abandoned that approach and are working to introduce licensing regimes, stablecoin oversight, and compliance rules designed to integrate digital assets into the financial system.The shift in sentiment and action taken by governments is the answer to a change in what crypto has become on the ground, where it’s become less of an investment and more of a payment system that millions of people already use for remittances, savings,…
Bitcoin dropped below $60,000 by mid-June after a punishing start to the month, but the figure drawing the most attention across trading desks is the June 26 Bitcoin options expiry, with over $10 billion of contracts set to expire and roughly 80% currently sitting out of the money.Chart showing the open interest for Bitcoin options on Deribit by expiry date on June 18, 2026 (Source: CoinGlass)In equity markets, zero-days-to-expiry options now make up well over half of daily S&P 500 index options volume, up from around 5% in 2020.Those two numbers come from very different corners of finance, but they…
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…
