The Cardano Foundation is becoming less dependent on $ADA. Its latest report shows Bitcoin and cash now account for a much larger share of reserves after a year of sharp price divergence. That shift changes how closely the Foundation’s balance sheet tracks the performance of Cardano’s native token.

This represents a 45% decline from the $659.1 million assets it held as of the end of 2024. The drop in headline value reflected a…

AxLabs has launched the Neo Bridge Indexer, a public dashboard that tracks the live status of the native bridge between Neo N3 and Neo X. Both the frontend and backend codebases have been open-sourced on GitHub under the bane-labs organization.

The native bridge itself is not new. Neo X launched its MainNet with the bridge in place, and subsequent tooling, like the Oracle Gateway…

Experts say most Bitcoin holders are safe for now, but Satoshi’s untouched 1.1M $BTC is not; here’s why. Why is your Bitcoin safe?

Bitcoin’s real macro risk right now is more discreet than simply watching the price of oil. Behind the scenes, a Fed liquidity cushion is nearly gone, and it can quickly become a headwind for Bitcoin’s attempt to avoid a deep crypto winter. On March 19, usage of the Federal Reserve’s overnight reverse repo facility stood at just $0.637 billion. Separately, the Fed’s weekly balance-sheet release for March 18 showed total assets at $6.656 trillion, reserve balances at $2.999 trillion, and the Treasury General Account at $875.833 billion. As a result, one of the market’s easiest shock absorbers has shrunk to…
