Last week, an institutional investor executed the largest single off-exchange trade in the history of US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, offloading a $1.26 billion position in BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). While the transaction has sparked intense debate on Wall Street, an analysis from NYDIG suggests the sale was a targeted, urgent retreat by a whale rather than the routine closure of a popular hedge fund arbitrage play.According to the analysis, the entity paid a steep price for immediate liquidity. It incurred nearly $30 million in execution costs just to secure an exit before the broader digital asset market took…

Europeans conduct 38% of global stablecoin transactions, but euro-denominated tokens account for just 0.3% of the total stablecoin supply. The continent is among the world’s most active users of stablecoins, and almost none of them are based on the euro.That gap was one of the main talking points of a consequential meeting in Nicosia, Cyprus, last Thursday, where EU finance ministers gathered for a two-day informal session of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council.The ECB maintains a clear position: it’s opposed to easing the rules governing euro stablecoins and firmly against granting stablecoin issuers access to ECB funding facilities.Christine Lagarde…
Jamie Dimon has escalated opposition to the CLARITY Act, arguing it gives crypto firms banking-like privileges without equivalent regulation.

As the US Senate moves closer to considering landmark cryptocurrency legislation, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has emerged as one of the bill’s most vocal critics, pledging that banks will challenge the proposal and taking direct aim at Coinbase chief executive Brian Armstrong. Dimon said the CLARITY Act contains…

The action forms part of a multi-pronged strategy aimed at disrupting financial channels tied to Tehran.

NordVPN’s threat intelligence team identified hundreds of fake GTA 6 pre-order sites, repacks and Android apps deploying DLL-sideloading trojans and infostealer malware.

Cory Klippsten, chief executive of Swan Bitcoin, stated at Bitcoin Vegas 2026 that retail buyers still account for the bulk of underlying Bitcoin demand, even when purchases route through spot ETFs. US spot Bitcoin ETFs have shed roughly US$2.9 billion in net outflows since May 15, per Farside Investors data, while Bitcoin has dropped about 9.5% over the same window. Klippsten cut his probability of Bitcoin printing a new all-time high in 2026 to between 20% and 25%, down from roughly 50% when the asset traded near US$95,000 earlier in the year. Cory Klippsten, chief executive of Swan Bitcoin, argued…
Western governments spent three years building what they believed was an airtight financial blockade around Russia, severing its banks from SWIFT, freezing sovereign reserves, and barring major institutions from clearing dollar transactions.And according to British authorities, Russia may have spent much of that same period engineering an alternative financial system designed to circumvent it entirely.On May 26, the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office sanctioned 18 entities and individuals, including Huobi (HTX), a Justin Sun-advised exchange that processed $3.3 trillion in trading volume in 2025, and a Kyrgyzstan-linked stablecoin issuer, for allegedly helping Russia evade Western restrictions.What distinguishes this package…
