The presale is tied to broader plans to launch Rice AI’s RICE token and conduct…

Eleanor Terrett said that Ripple also applied for a Fed main account through Standard Custody, the crypto custody company it acquired last year, which was a much bigger deal. Terrett argued that granting a Fed master account is more important than a banking license in terms of…

This region includes the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement, the point of control, and a major high time frame resistance level that has held for more than a week. If momentum fails to return, Ethereum may be setting up for a deeper rotation toward $2,220. Ethereum’s (ETH) recent attempt to push beyond $2,550 has once again failed, reinforcing this level as a key battleground for bulls and bears. The rejection has resulted in a short-term market structure break and the formation of a new local…

Anza, the Solana blockchain infrastructure company spun off from Solana Labs, has proposed a new proof-of-stake consensus called Alpenglow. Alpenglow consists of Votor, which handles voting transactions and block finality logic, and Rotor, a data distribution protocol that will replace Solana’s proof-of-history timestamping system and aims to reduce the time it takes for all nodes to agree on the state of the network. According to Anza’s researchers, Alpenglow will break latency limitations, achieving finality in about 150 milliseconds, rivaling the infrastructure of the Internet. Votor, which will replace TowerBFT, will aim to finalize blocks in a single round if 80%…
