[ad_1] Liam Heeger spent two years as a core engineer for Firedancer, the high-performance Solana client being written from scratch by Jump. In January, Heeger announced he had left Jump to create his own layer-1 blockchain called Unto. The next day, news broke that Jump was suing Heeger for violating his non-compete agreement by working on a new high-performance blockchain. Jump and Heeger settled the case in late February, so I was finally able to catch up with Heeger and get more details on Unto. In short, the layer-1 will architect a new virtual machine to try and improve on…
[ad_1] One of those that suffered the biggest decline during the correction in Bitcoin and altcoins was undoubtedly Ethereum (ETH). While the Ethereum price retreated to the $2,000,000 level, the increasing expectation before the White House Crypto Summit to be held on March 7 has led the ETH price to reach the $2,300 level. While Ethereum has been experiencing volatile movements, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has explained what ETH investors have been doing during the recent price fluctuations. Stating that Ethereum investors are actively managing their positions, Glassnode said that it lowered its cost basis by purchasing the dip. After…
[ad_1] Arthur Hayes has dropped part three of his essay series, and it’s exactly what you’d expect—raw, technical, and unapologetically direct. Titled “KISS of Death,” the essay tears into President Donald Trump’s financial strategy, the Federal Reserve’s shenanigans, national debt manipulation, and what it all means for crypto investors. The core theme? Debt, liquidity, and control. The essay rips through the dynamics between Scott Bessent at the Treasury, Jerome Powell at the Fed, and Trump’s economic playbook. Trump’s debt game and Powell’s role Arthur kept it real: He reminded readers that Trump is a real estate guy. He builds empires…
[ad_1] Raydium’s RAY token plummeted Sunday amid speculation that meme coin launchpad Pump.fun is preparing to launch its own automated market-making system. RAY has dropped 22% over the past 24 hours to $3.28 and is down a further 5% over the past hour, according to data from GeckoTerminal. Pump.fun has yet to respond to Decrypt’s request for comment. Raydium’s representatives have not publicly addressed the situation nor returned requests for comment. The sharp decline follows the discovery of an apparent test version of an AMM that could redirect significant trading volume away from Raydium’s platform. “Raydium has benefited significantly from…
[ad_1] The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is undertaking a full-scale retreat from much of the major crypto litigation started under former Chair Gary Gensler, but not everyone is off the hook. At least four lawsuits against crypto companies — Ripple, Kraken, Cumberland DRW and Pulsechain — remain ongoing, and probes into another three firms — Unicoin, Crypto.com and Immutable — have not yet been closed. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, the leader of the agency’s newly-created Crypto Task Force, has already made good on her promise earlier this month to “disentangle” the SEC from various crypto-related litigation. The agency…

[ad_1] Bitcoin currently hovers at $93,983, boasting a valuation of $1.86 trillion and a 24-hour trading volume of $35 billion. Its intraday movement oscillates between $93,607 and $96,480, resting 13.6% beneath its historic price peak. Bitcoin On the BTC/USD 1-hour chart, fleeting fragility persists as bitcoin carves successive troughs and wavers near the $93,607 support. Bears maintain their grip, with red candles swelling alongside elevated volume—a testament to the intense downward drive. Erratic price swings mirror trader indecision, while futile efforts to recapture $95,000 solidify this barrier as a formidable ceiling. A meaningful push above $95,500 demands a crescendo of…
[ad_1] Cryptocurrency analyst and trader Jason Pizzino is warning that Ethereum (ETH) may plummet in value for one main reason. In a new video, Pizzino tells his 349,000 YouTube subscribers that ETH may decline by more than 47% of its current value after the top altcoin may have formed a bearish double-top pattern on the weekly chart. A double-top pattern is considered a bearish indicator by technical analysts and suggests that bulls lack the strength to push the price of the crypto asset to greater heights. “It’s really looking very, very weak here and like it wants to continue to…
