Binance returns to Iran sanctions scrutiny after its $4.3 billion U.S. pleaThe Justice Department is reportedly probing Iran’s use of Binance to evade sanctions, pulling the world’s largest crypto exchange back into a national security case less than three years after it pleaded guilty in the U.S. and agreed to a resolution worth more than $4.3 billion.The clearest fact at the outset is the contradiction.

However, the continued fluctuation around the $70k mark signals that the market is yet to return to full risk-on…

Kalshi’s first move outside the United States is not London, not Singapore, not any of the financial centers that have spent years building crypto-friendly regulatory frameworks.It is Brazil, through XP International and its brokerage arm, Clear, offering prediction markets to Brazilian investors as a “new asset class” anchored at launch to economic events such as inflation prints and interest rate decisions.The company frames the product as a federally regulated derivative rather than a bet.Brazil’s government frames what it is already dealing with as a public health emergency.Both things can be true. The tension between them is the story.What Kalshi and…

Internet Computer price jumped 12% to near $3 during Asian trading hours. The ICP token hit the intraday highs amid news of listing support by Upbit. If ICP breaks above $3, it could retest highs of $4.55. The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) token rose sharply early Wednesday, trading to $2.94 amid a two-fold spike in daily trading volume.
