Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong recently took to the X social media network to slam “big banks” for trying to reverse the ability of cryptocurrency trading platforms to offer rewards in Circle’s USDC stablecoin.

With major cryptocurrencies dropping in prices, long-time gold advocate Peter Schiff and crypto investor Andrew Kang have seized the moment to argue that recent declines vindicate their warnings about the valuations and misplaced optimism surrounding Bitcoin and Ethereum respectively. The recent market backdrop has given voice to skeptics. Ethereum has slipped below $4,000, and Bitcoin has shed some of its recent gains.

Analysts continue to disagree on whether this marks the start of a longer downturn or if it’s just a “bear trap” within a continuing…

This includes Bitcoin, Ether, and other significant cryptocurrencies. Notably, DAT companies are publicly traded firms that raise funds to purchase and manage cryptocurrencies on their balance sheet. Concerning DAT’s recent asset holdings, Watkins asserted that most investors in the crypto market have not…
