It’s been a good week for Bitcoin and its status in the eyes of federal deposit insurance corporations. (Well, there’s a weird sentence I never thought I’d write.) On Tuesday, the anti-crypto U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Chairman, Martin Gruenberg, announced he’d be stepping down in January. And yesterday, Heritage Falodun, CEO of DigiOats, Nigeria’s leading Bitcoin education and consultancy platform, educated members of the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) about the benefits of bitcoin and other digital assets. Falodun, an indefatigable Bitcoin proponent, spearheaded a seminar for the NDIC entitled “Cryptocurrency in the Evolving Financial Industry”. This week,…

Two startups are joining forces to introduce a solution to verify total value locked (TVL) claims by Bitcoin decentralized finance (Bitcoin defi) projects. Why Bitcoin Defi Needs Proof-of-TVL At more than $30 billion in total value locked (TVL), Bitcoin decentralized finance (Bitcoin defi) is quickly becoming a profitable trend, but exaggerated TVL numbers from questionable projects could undermine the entire sector. The reason TVL is the de facto vanity metric in defi is because it signals a token’s liquidity. It also helps investors gauge a project’s popularity and trustworthiness. But Bitcoin defi is different. Assessing Bitcoin-based TVL is much trickier…

Ethereum remained on edge during the weekend as its exchange-traded funds experienced large outflows, exchange balances rose, and staking yield fell. Ethereum (ETH) was trading at $3,268, down from last month’s high of $4,104. This price action mirrors that of Bitcoin (BTC), which has retreated from an all-time high of $108,000 to below $95,000. Ether has pulled back as data shows that demand for its ETFs on Wall Street has fallen in the past few days. According to SoSoValue, all Ethereum funds lost $68 million in assets on Friday after losing $159.3 million on Thursday. They lost $86 million in…

Some miners at OCEAN have started making use of the Coin Age Priority algorithm during block template construction using DATUM. Originally, Bitcoin Core originally selected transactions to include in blocks based on what they had seen first in their mempool. This logic was eventually replaced by prioritizing older coins, i.e. that had been sitting around unspent longer, over other coins. This was eventually only applied to a small portion of the blockspace, and then eventually done away with entirely around the time of Segwit. It’s still maintained in Bitcoin Knots. I can only speculate as to the motives of the…

Bitcoin must hold $94K during a retest to validate its recent breakout; failure risks a significant downside. Sustained movement above $94K could lead to an acceleration toward higher levels, resembling past breakout patterns. Traders can use the $94K support and potential range lows for strategic positioning with defined risks. Bitcoin has recently traded higher from the lower timeframe range it had been in and moved above $94,000. Most experts posit that this level is one that acts as a critical point in terms of the subsequent movements in price of the cryptocurrency. Despite the breakout seeming to look good, one…

As the crypto market enters a new phase of bullish momentum, the question on everyone’s mind is whether Decentralized Finance (DeFi) will once again take center stage. While the DeFi boom of 2020 catalyzed the broader blockchain ecosystem, this cycle may take a more evolved and measured approach, emphasizing utility and long-term sustainability. Why DeFi Matters More Than Ever DeFi has transcended its experimental origins to become a cornerstone of blockchain innovation. By leveraging smart contracts and decentralized infrastructure, it has democratized access to financial services for millions of people worldwide. DeFi isn’t a fringe experiment anymore, but a proven…
