Wallets linked to the Revolutionary Guard received over 3 billion dollars in 2025 and accounted for more than half of all transaction value in the final quarter. Crypto transactions linked to Iran rose sharply during late-2025 protests, with blockchain data showing a surge in withdrawals from Iranian exchanges into…

The comments come as US lawmakers debate crypto legislation, with yield on stablecoins a key unresolved issue. Bank of America Chief Executive Brian Moynihan has warned that permitting stablecoin issuers to pay interest could draw up to US$6 trillion (AU$9.06 trillion) out of the US banking system, potentially reducing banks’ ability to lend and increasing borrowing costs. Speaking…

The rally reignited a familiar question: is this the setup for a sustained move above $100,000, or another fragile push built on thin order books and positioning games?

The change is linked to a Google policy update that ties app availability to local licensing requirements. As a result, only platforms that meet South Korea’s regulatory standards will remain…

Several leaders of asset tokenisation firms have spoken out against Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong’s claim that the US Senate’s draft market structure bill would impose a “de facto ban on tokenised securities.” Tokenisation firms argue the draft bill simply sought to clarify that tokenised securities were subject to the same regulation as regular securities — a step they believe is helpful. Armstrong’s claim formed part of his justification to withdraw Coinbase’s support for the bill, resulting in a postponement of a planned markup session planned for today and casting doubt over the bill’s prospects of passing before this year’s US…
