Stablecoin Development Corporation, a public company built around holding and staking Sky Protocol’s SKY governance token, reported that $2.2 million of second-quarter staking revenue roughly matched its company-defined cash operating expenses.The comparison used reported dollar values: SDEV received the rewards in SKY and sold none during the quarter, meaning SDEV would need to sell tokens before using the rewards to pay operating costs.SDEV calculated cash operating expenses, a non-GAAP measure, by subtracting about $3.2 million of noncash stock compensation from $5.4 million of general and administrative expense. The result was approximately $2.2 million. The company earned 31.7 million SKY during…

By the time SBI Crypto pulled the plug on its Bitcoin pool in Japan on July 31, its seven-day average hashrate had fallen 64% in a month. Later that day, a Hashrate Index reading put Foundry USA, AntPool and F2Pool at 60% of recent blocks. The timing makes them look connected. Weekly data tell a messier story.

Starting Aug. 1, Louisiana users may cancel a virtual-currency-kiosk transaction made on or after that date and demand a full refund at any time if the machine’s owner or operator was unlicensed when the transaction occurred.Act 482 puts the cost of an eligible refund on the operator. Eligibility depends on the operator’s license status when the transaction occurred, so the provision does not cover every kiosk payment. The act separately preserves Louisiana’s general rule requiring an operator to hold a transaction for 72 hours or allow the user to cancel within 72 hours for a full refund. The measure takes…

Bitcoin is trading near $63,000, with rate markets assigning roughly 66% odds to a September Federal Reserve hike, under a policy framework Kevin Warsh has left partly hidden.The Fed chair has defined his reaction function around “underlying inflation,” then declined to disclose how he weighs the indicators that produce that judgment.The official dashboard spans 1.5 percentage points: headline PCE runs at 3.7%, core PCE at 3.3%, the Atlanta Fed’s sticky-price CPI at 2.8%, Cleveland Fed 10-year expected inflation at 2.43%, and the Dallas Fed’s trimmed-mean PCE at 2.2%.One economy supplies readings from nearly twice the Fed’s 2% goal to barely…

Tether’s second-quarter materials report $1.5 billion in net operating profit, earned mainly from Treasuries and repo activity. However, the attached reserve report shows a negative $3.17 billion first-half financial result, and the company’s materials do not reconcile the two figures.Subtracting the first quarter’s positive $1.04 billion financial result from that first-half figure implies a negative $4.211 billion result for the second quarter alone.After an $89 million net capital offset, the implied hit reduced the cushion above roughly $184 billion of liabilities from $8.23 billion to $4.11 billion in three months.Reconstructing the missing numberTether’s implied financial result is negative $4.211 billion…

The US government sold $44 billion of seven-year debt on July 28, and buyers accepted it at a yield of 4.473%. That was 21.3 basis points above the 4.260% yield awarded at June’s Treasury auction.Investors could lend money to Washington for seven years, collect regular interest, and lock in a return approaching 4.5% before the Federal Reserve announced its next rate decision.Bitcoin offered no comparable promise. It pays no contractual interest, can lose several percentage points in a day, and requires investors to believe future appreciation will justify the added volatility.The Treasury auction therefore raised Bitcoin’s hurdle before Fed officials…

Bitcoin enters the weekend near $62,900, less than 1% above the July 31 intraday low, and Deribit has already settled roughly $9.6 billion in monthly Bitcoin options. The venue settles monthly contracts at 08:00 UTC on the last Friday of each month, and live expiry data placed July’s Bitcoin notional near $9.7 billion.The immediate price test for the weekend sits at $62,000, where a sustained break would leave Bitcoin about 3% from the $60,000 put, which carries $1.17 billion in open interest, according to the current CoinGlass snapshot.The July 31 high of $65,266 defines another boundary, with $64,500 serving as…
