By the Numbers As of now, the current price of Ethereum remains unlisted due to market fluctuations, but the volume metrics indicate a lack of trading activity in the last 24 hours. This transfer from Whale Alert aligns with other signs of market activity where large holders, or ‘whales’, are repositioning assets, potentially impacting future price dynamics. The move to Coinbase Institutional suggests that significant players are preparing for potential market developments ahead. Whale Alert is an on-chain tracking service that monitors large cryptocurrency transactions. Coinbase Institutional is a platform catering to institutional clients, facilitating large asset transfers and trading.…

The holder count of tokenized RWA on the Solana network has rallied parabolically, up fivefold since August 2026. This exponential growth was triggered by regulatory clarity and strong institutional demand in the United States. Furthermore, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proactively filled the legislative void by issuing key regulatory relief and establishing clear disclosure frameworks for digital asset issuers. Through these measures, the Commission granted temporary exemptive relief, expected to end on September 17, 2031, thereby enabling regulated financial institutions to issue, trade, and settle tokenized securities on permissioned public blockchain rails. Solana price performance in the…

Consequently, Cardano’s stablecoin supply exceeds its DeFi TVL by approximately $11.27 million, representing a stablecoin-to-TVL ratio of about 119.45%. This ratio highlights the amount of stablecoin liquidity available on the network relative to the capital currently deployed in DeFi protocols. However, this does not necessarily mean that the entire difference represents capital ready to enter DeFi applications. Cardano DeFi Activity What Does This Mean Cardano’s stablecoin figures raise an important question on whether the available liquidity will eventually flow into its DeFi applications and support broader network activity. Generally, a stablecoin-to-TVL ratio above 100% indicates that the network’s stablecoin supply…

The October 23 cutoff applied to both trading and deposits. A balance remaining visible in an account does not establish that the asset can still be traded on Kraken. The withdrawal deadline comes before liquidation Holders have until January 29, 2027, at 15:00 UTC to remove the affected tokens. Kraken has scheduled the liquidation period for February 1–12, 2027. The Kraken token delisting therefore has three distinct stages: the trading and deposit cutoff, the withdrawal window, and liquidation. Kraken warns that balances left after the withdrawal deadline face liquidation with possible losses and no assured recovery value. Withdrawals require more…

Bitcoin Struggles to Hold $80,000 Bitcoin dropped to $79,278 on Monday before recovering to $80,291. Despite the rebound, the coin remains down about 5% over the past month. Pillows also highlighted Bitcoin’s three consecutive weekly losses, warning that a weekly close below $80,000 would increase the risk of further declines. Why the $78,000–$79,000 Zone Matters The $80 million in buy orders across Binance, Bybit, and other trading platforms represents a source of support. However, much of this liquidity comes from futures markets rather than direct purchases of Bitcoin on spot markets. Futures orders do not necessarily translate into demand for…

A total of 5,227,037 $ETH of the reserve is locked on Bitmine’s MAVAN platform and various staking partners. This amount represents approximately 86% of the company’s $ETH holdings.

Staking yield can vary depending on the total amount of staked on the network, validator performance, $ETH price, and potential penalties. Bitmine’s balance sheet includes 215 BTC besides Ethereum, a…

Musk also said SpaceX had closed $40 billion in debt financing to purchase graphics processing units, or GPUs, used in AI computing. He attributed the company’s access to borrowing to its investment-grade credit rating and revenue from Starlink satellite services and rocket launches. However, Bloomberg reported that discussions over the debt’s pricing remained ongoing as of late Sunday and that the financing had not yet been priced, despite Musk’s statement that the deal had closed.

The findings expose a weakness in crypto copy trading, where investors use automated platforms to mirror transactions made by wallets with strong historical returns. These systems typically rely on observable purchases to establish positions. However, wallets receiving tokens through transfers can record substantial profits without executing a market purchase that followers could replicate. The practice also appears to be growing. Bitquery found that transferred-token sales accounted for seven out of every 10 large wallet wins in August, after remaining below 100 cases monthly until July. The shift suggests that traders increasingly relying on wallet leaderboards could encounter apparently profitable addresses…

The $16 million figure is for new investment in Luxor and purchases of existing shares. The company did not say how much each category took, so the entire amount is not fresh cash for expansion. Its AI hardware desk sources graphics processors and servers for customers, and those processors help run demanding AI tasks. Bitcoin mining, on the other hand, generally relies on machines built specifically for mining. A business built around computing power Luxor had started its move into AI before this funding round that was announced. In September, it launched its AI business, using the services it had…
