A French couple held at knifepoint in their home near Versailles and forced to transfer roughly €900,000 in Bitcoin would normally read like a rare, tragic story.But in France, it now fits a pattern serious enough to rattle the industry, draw the interior minister into the fray, and push executives toward bodyguards and tighter personal security measures.This signals a broader trend: crypto security is becoming a key concern for physical security.The March 2026 Le Chesnay-Rocquencourt case, in which three men posing as police allegedly coerced the couple into authorizing the transfer, is the latest data point in what French authorities…

BlackRock’s new staked Ethereum ETF (ETHB) is easy to misunderstand.This is not the first time ETH staking has finally reached exchange-traded products, as Grayscale has already crossed that bridge. What’s interesting about the launch is that BlackRock is now standardizing the way Ethereum is explained to mainstream investors.With ETHB, Ethereum is being repackaged less as a confusing crypto-tech bet and more as a yield-bearing portfolio asset: something investors can hold in a brokerage account, potentially collect monthly staking-related income from, and understand in much more familiar investment terms.BlackRock introduced the iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF on Mar. 12. BlackRock’s release…
Bitcoin is charging toward $73,000 amid a fresh decoupling from the stock market. The surge in BTC price comes despite fears around escalating oil prices. Ethereum, XRP, and Solana are also eyeing momentum as traditional assets falter. Bitcoin climbed past $72,500 on Friday, extending gains ahead of the Wall Street open. The cryptocurrency had earlier broken above $72,000 after buyers pushed it out of a consolidation range below $70,000. The move came as digital assets appeared to shrug off a broader sell-off in equities. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading around $72,518, up roughly 4% over the past…

Silver dropped more than 10%, falling from…
Mastercard’s crypto partner push is really a plan to keep stablecoins inside its networkMastercard is trying to make sure the stablecoin era still needs its card services.On Wednesday, the company launched a program with more than 85 crypto-native firms, payments providers, banks, compliance vendors, custody companies, exchanges, and infrastructure groups. On its face, that reads like another ecosystem announcement.However, let’s look at what the list implies. Mastercard is assembling the counterparties it needs so that if stablecoins, tokenized deposits, and other digital-dollar instruments become meaningful payment rails, those flows can still pass through Mastercard’s acceptance, trust, and settlement layers rather…
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) recorded inflows of about 1.5% of assets since the Iran conflict began on Feb. 27, while SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) shed roughly 2.7% in outflows.
