The UK’s Nov. 26 Budget stands as a pivotal chance to lock in clearer digital-asset policy, boost regulatory certainty, and propel innovation across stablecoins and faster settlement—momentum that could define the nation’s global edge, according to Ripple. Ripple Sees Nov. 26 Budget Driving Fierce Race for UK’s Digital Asset Edge Ripple shared last week that the UK’s Nov. 26 Budget represents a key chance to signal commitment to digital assets and stablecoins, stressing that clear policy direction could reinforce the country’s competitiveness.

The “weekly active user count” data, one of the most important indicators for understanding user interaction in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, has been updated. The list reveals how many unique users used different blockchains and protocols over the past seven days, revealing which networks in the industry are generating significant interest.

The current ranking of altcoin projects with the highest number of active users and their weekly user changes are as follows: BNB Chain…

Ethereum is struggling to reclaim momentum after a sharp 6% drop in the last 24 hours pushed the altcoin king back from the critical $3,000 barrier. The level has acted as both psychological and technical resistance, and the latest rejection comes at a time when some of Ethereum’s most influential holders are pulling back. Ethereum Holders’ Supply Drops HODL Waves data shows that Ethereum’s long-term holders (LTHs) have been offloading their assets since early November. This selling pressure intensified around November 19, leading to a meaningful reduction in the supply controlled by the 2-to-3-year cohort. Their share of the circulating…

Animoca Brands founder Yat Siu aims to position his company as a vehicle for investors to gain exposure to broader crypto projects and the altcoin market, as the company plans to go public through a reverse merger next year. “We believe that altcoins, ultimately, over the largest space, are going to outperform Bitcoin as a collective,” Siu said during an interview with Cointelegraph on Wednesday. Siu compared Bitcoin (BTC) to gold, saying that while no single company is bigger than gold’s market capitalization, all public companies combined are “roughly five to six times gold.” He said that while these companies…

Ethereum hovers at the middle Bollinger Band as support holds, and fresh liquidations hint at a fragile rebound. Ethereum spent the past 24 hours testing market nerves around the $2,800 mark. After holding steady near the upper end of its range for most of the day, the price saw a sharp intraday drop from just below $2,845 to a low near $2,725, wiping out earlier gains. That flush was followed by a steady rebound, with ETH clawing back toward $2,800, though it still sits about 0.8% lower on the day at roughly $2,809. Over a longer lens, Ethereum’s chart shows…

The Philippines has a $60 billion opportunity to transform its capital markets through asset tokenization, according to the white paper for Project Bayani: The Philippines’ Asset Tokenization Opportunity, published today by the Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), Saison Capital, and Onigiri Capital.

Vitalik Buterin recently sent a 256 ETH grant to two messaging projects, Session and SimpleX Chat, without the usual ecosystem fanfare. The gesture was modest in size but pointed in intent, because both applications occupy a part of the internet that rarely gets real support: metadata-resistant communication. Their designs tackle the parts of digital messaging that encryption alone cannot protect, the structural details that reveal who is speaking, how often, and across which networks. Buterin’s donation draws attention to this area with unusual clarity, highlighting two projects built to reduce the information that modern platforms routinely broadcast by default. Session…
