Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh for Fed Chair has introduced market uncertainty, with investors weighing his historically hawkish stance against recent comments supporting lower interest rates. Economist Lyn Alden predicts a “gradual print” era where the Fed expands its balance sheet by $20–$25 billion monthly to match GDP growth, providing steady rather than sudden liquidity. This environment of consistent liquidity is expected to favor scarce assets like gold and Bitcoin, which recently rebounded 2.8% to trade at approximately $71.1k. President Donald Trump’s decision to name Kevin Warsh as the next chair of the US Federal Reserve has added uncertainty to…

Two California teens, 16 and 17, are being tried as adults for a violent Scottsdale home invasion targeting an alleged $66 million cryptocurrency fortune. Dressed in delivery uniforms, the pair used duct tape and zip ties to restrain a family after being recruited and funded via Signal by unknown handlers named “Red” and “8.” Police arrested the suspects at a dead end following a 911 call from a family member; both were released on $50,000 bail with ankle monitors.

Bithumb mistakenly credited hundreds of users with $40 billion in “phantom” Bitcoin after an employee entered “BTC” instead of “KRW” for a $1.40 reward. The error caused a 16% flash crash on the exchange as users rushed to sell, though 99.7% of the funds were recovered within minutes. Bithumb will cover the remaining $9 million loss using corporate funds while facing an on-site inspection from South Korean regulators. Well, just by looking at the title, this is one of those stories where we surely know someone is in deep trouble after screwing up badly. This time, leading Korean exchange Bithumb…

In a video streamed live on X / Twitter last Friday, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson revealed he personally has unrealised losses topping US$3 billion (AU$4.27 billion) on his cryptocurrency holdings. Hoskinson revealed his losses to counter claims by some that billionaire crypto founders such as himself can avoid the financial consequences of crypto bear markets. In the video Hoskinson also argued that blockchain, with its programmatically enforced rules and inbuilt trust, is the only real hope for replacing the current “evil” global financial system with a fairer and less evil system. You think you’re down bad after the recent crypto…

BitMine recently purchased 20,000 ETH for $41.98 million, bringing its total treasury to 4.29 million ETH as it pursues a goal of owning 5% of the total circulating supply. Despite holding $8.2 billion in assets, the company is facing roughly $8 billion in unrealised losses and an 88% drop in its stock price as Ethereum trades near the $2,000 mark. Chairman Tom Lee dismissed the downturn as a “mini crypto winter,” opting to hold and stake the treasury for $374 million in annual rewards rather than selling at a loss. BitMine bought about 20,000 Ethereum (ETH) for US$41.98 million (AU$64…

CoinShares argues that quantum computing poses a theoretical but distant challenge to Bitcoin, not an imminent threat to its security or markets. The firm says meaningful exposure is confined to a small subset of legacy addresses, with only a tiny portion capable of affecting liquidity. Aggressive fixes like burning coins are discouraged, with gradual upgrades favoured to preserve decentralisation and property rights. Concerns about quantum computing undermining Bitcoin’s cryptographic security have intensified, but a new CoinShares report argues the issue is being overstated and misunderstood. The firm frames quantum risk as a long-term engineering challenge rather than an immediate systemic…

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s equity investment in prediction market Kalshi was finalised during the same week the platform hosted high-volume markets speculating on his trade status. Kalshi says restrictions barring Antetokounmpo from trading on NBA-related markets, alongside integrity and monitoring controls, were already in place before he became a shareholder.

Bitcoin’s next big options gravity well sits on Mar. 27 (260327), and the reason is simple: this is where the market has parked a thick stack of conditional bets that will need to be unwound, rolled forward, or paid out as the clock runs down.The Mar. 27 expiry carries about $8.65B in notional OI and flags $90,000 as max pain, a rough reference point for where, in aggregate, option holders would feel the most pain at settlement.The broader options complex is enormous, with total BTC options open interest around $31.99B across exchanges, led by Deribit at roughly $25.56B, with the…

On Jan.30, 2026, US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $509.7 million in net outflows, which looks like pretty straightforward negative sentiment until you look at the individual tickers and realize a few of them stayed green.That contradiction aged fast over the next few days. Feb. 2 snapped back with $561.8 million in net inflows, then Feb. 3 flipped to -$272.0 million, and Feb. 4 sank to -$544.9 million. The totals went up and down, but the more useful clue was the same one hiding in plain sight on Jan. 30: the category can look like one trade from a distance, while…
