The UK’s Economic Secretary for the Treasury has poured cold water on the idea of the country launching a national crypto reserve. Speaking at the Financial Times Digital Asset Summit in London, Emma Reynolds MP said that following the U.S. government’s lead in stockpiling Bitcoin is “not the plan for us.” “We don’t think that’s appropriate for our market,” Reynolds said. “We understand that’s what the U.S. is going for, but that’s not the plan for us,” she added. In other areas, the UK is looking to align with the U.S., Reynolds said, noting that, “we think it’s really important…
Bitcoin has bounced back strongly, briefly crossing the $104,000 mark before pulling back slightly to just under $103,000. This marks a solid recovery from recent lows caused by market fears around tariffs. The bullish momentum extends to altcoins with Ethereum and XRP also climbing, and the majority of tokens showing strong green trends across the board. However, all eyes are now on a major event this week — a large-scale token unlock that could introduce new volatility. Historically, token unlocks have triggered price swings when previously restricted coins become available for trading. Market Braces for Over $200M in Token Unlocks…

Bitcoin is coming to the drive-thru. American fast food chain Steak ‘n Shake said Thursday it will begin accepting the world’s largest crypto at all of its U.S. locations starting May 16, giving its more than 100 million customers the option to pay for milkshakes and burgers in BTC. “The movement is just beginning,” the company posted on X. Unlike high-margin retailers, fast food chains run on thin margins and high volume, making Steak ‘n Shake’s Bitcoin rollout a real-world stress test for the crypto’s speed, cost, and usability at scale. The integration was initially teased in March, when the…
Ethereum (ETH) has experienced its largest single-day rally since 2021, climbing 31% in just 24 hours. The surge follows the successful implementation of the Pectra upgrade, which has helped push ETH closer to a crucial resistance level of $2,500. However, despite the impressive gains, the challenge lies in whether Ethereum can breach this level sustainably, as investor behavior may hinder further price movement. Ethereum Pectra Upgrade Goes Live The Pectra upgrade has significantly impacted the market sentiment surrounding Ethereum, with exchanges recording net inflows of $15.6 billion since its launch. On May 8 alone, $12 billion worth of ETH was…
