BlackRock, Coinbase and Strategy are backing a $15 million effort to prepare Bitcoin against future quantum-computing attacks.The companies are among nine founding members of the Bitcoin Security Consortium, announced July 23 to support developers and researchers working on the network’s long-term security.The consortium also includes Anchorage Digital, ARK Invest, Block, Blockstream, Fidelity Digital Assets and Galaxy, bringing together asset managers, custodians, exchanges, infrastructure providers and companies with substantial businesses or holdings tied to Bitcoin.Quantum computing will be the group’s first focus as advances in the technology draw greater attention to cryptographic systems that could eventually become vulnerable.Phong Le, Chief Executive…
On July 22, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce warned that some crypto vaults and onchain lending strategies may fall under federal securities laws.According to her, the regulatory risk depends on how the products are structured and who controls the investment decisions.Crypto vaults pool customer assets into onchain strategies that generate yield through lending, staking and other activities, with some relying on professional managers to choose markets, approve collateral and set risk parameters.Peirce did not identify any companies or suggest that existing products violate securities laws. However, her warning comes as several companies, including Bitwise, Coinbase, and Kraken, enter the rapidly expanding…
The White House pushed back against the Senate Democrats’ rejection of the latest version of the CLARITY Act, with ethics remaining a major sticking point.The clash comes despite President Donald Trump’s decision this week to accept new ethics limits, reflecting how far apart negotiators remain as lawmakers try to advance sweeping crypto market legislation.On July 22, Senate Republicans submitted revised CLARITY Act legislation to bar the president, vice president, members of Congress, federal judges and other covered officials from issuing or sponsoring digital assets for compensation while in office.These officials would be required to sell certain crypto holdings, place them…
Key takeaways XRP continues to trade below its 50-day EMA, keeping the short-term trend bearish. Momentum indicators are improving, with the MACD turning more positive and the RSI rising to around 55. A break above $1.15 could strengthen the recovery, while failure to do so may trigger another pullback.

Although the cryptocurrency has rebounded from recent lows, buyers continue to face strong resistance that has limited the recovery. The current technical setup suggests that while bullish momentum…
Active use of tokenized real-world assets in DeFi has returned to about $3.77 billion, close to the level visible before an April 18 exploit triggered a $13 billion decline across DeFi as a whole in 48 hours.DefiLlama’s tracking puts that recovery at roughly 95 days from the shock to July 22.The failure consisted of a compromised verification setup that let attackers forge a cross-chain message and release roughly 116,500 unbacked rsETH, worth about $292 million, through KelpDAO’s LayerZero multichain infrastructure.Aave accepted the token as collateral, the attacker borrowed against it, and the resulting run pulled $8.45 billion out of Aave…

XRP’s recovery above $1.16 this week has coincided with a shift in the token’s supply picture, as large holders move fewer coins onto exchanges while US-listed exchange-traded funds continue to attract fresh capital.The retreat in exchange-bound supply follows weeks of consolidation around $1, when weaker prices and limited spot demand kept XRP from sustaining repeated recovery attempts.The change has eased one source of pressure but has yet to produce a decisive breakout. As of press time, XRP had surrendered part of Tuesday’s advance and was trading near $1.14, leaving the next stage of the recovery dependent on whether ETF demand…
Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart argued that the CLARITY Act should carry virtually no direct effect on Bitcoin’s price.In his view, Bitcoin already holds the infrastructure the bill is trying to build for the rest of the industry: commodity treatment, regulated futures, spot ETF access, and institutional custody.That claim sits inside a wider debate over what CLARITY changes for crypto and what it leaves alone.Senate Republicans released updated CLARITY text on July 22, covering stablecoin rewards, SEC fundraising exemptions, DeFi classification, anti-money-laundering rules, and the division of regulatory authority. The bill still needs at least eight Democratic votes to clear…
Bitcoin trades near $65,978, below the $69,000 level Glassnode treats as the average cost basis for short-term holders, and the Federal Reserve’s July 28-29 meeting will decide if this disconnect can be closed.June payrolls rose by only 57,000, unemployment stayed at 4.2%, and revisions cut April and May payrolls by a combined 74,000.Core CPI held flat month over month and slowed to 2.6% annually, giving traders grounds to expect a less restrictive Fed, with the headline reading, more exposed to energy costs, at 3.5% annually.Brent crude futures settled around $94 this week, with an intraday high of $95.47. The 10-year…
