Arizona state Senator Wendy Rogers has proposed two bills and a resolution in an effort to change the state’s laws on taxing digital assets. In legislation prefiled with the Arizona Senate on Friday, Rogers proposed amending state statues to exempt virtual currency from taxation (SB 1044), barring counties, cities and towns from taxing or fining entities running blockchain nodes (SB 1045), and amending the state constitution’s definition of property taxes to clarify rules on digital assets (SCR 1003). The blockchain node bill may move through the state legislature, but the crypto tax bill and resolution would require a vote by…

In 2025, ETH marked significant inflows into whale wallets. As retail gave up on the coin, large-scale holders kept accumulating. ETH wallets with a balance of 10K to 100K ETH are the leading holders toward the end of 2025. ETH whales kept accumulating, especially in the second half of 2025. ETH is going through a significant shift in holding structure, with tokens flowing out of exchanges and into new self-custodial wallets. In 2025, retail sentiment continued to sink, while whales used the available DeFi tools on Ethereum. The holdings of smaller wallets, carrying 100-1K ETH, have continued their decline since…

Another piece of Strategy (MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor’s playbook looks to be taking shape after the company’s perpetual preferred share, Stretch (STRC), hit a record high of $100.10 with trading volume reaching 1 million shares. The milestone is significant because it enables Strategy, the largest holder of bitcoin BTC$102,926.71, to utilize its at-the-market (ATM) offering against STRC to buy more of the largest cryptocurrency. STRC, described by the company as a short-duration, high-yield credit instrument, currently offers an annualized 10.5% return, paid monthly in cash. The ATM, established on July 31, had been on hold because the instrument was…

Wyoming Representative Harriet Hageman intensified chatter about a 2026 Senate run by posting a video days after Senator Cynthia Lummis announced she will not seek reelection. ​The five-second clip shows the congresswoman alongside a single-word caption: “Soon.” It breaks a months‑long lull on her account and bolsters speculation that she is eyeing Lummis’ open seat. Wyoming’s Senate seat has been a reliable voice in advancing regulatory clarity for the crypto industry, from market structure bills and stablecoin regulation to banking access. Whoever replaces Lummis will help decide whether crypto keeps a dedicated champion in the Senate. Hageman’s tweet has fueled…

The United States appears ready to redefine its approach to crypto and artificial intelligence oversight. David Sacks, the US Crypto and AI Czar, recently described current regulatory leadership as a dream team. His statement reflects growing confidence inside Washington. Policymakers now signal urgency and alignment on long delayed rules. Market participants closely watch every signal. Crypto investors, builders, and institutions have demanded certainty for years. Conflicting guidance previously slowed innovation and pushed companies offshore. Sacks’ remarks suggest that era may finally end. Regulators now speak the same language. Coordination replaces confusion across federal agencies. This moment carries weight beyond politics.…

Max Keiser, senior adviser to El Salvador’s president Nayib Bukele, took a jab at the US President Donald Trump’s pro-Bitcoin policies, calling out the rise of “shitcoins” and misplaced priorities in the crypto industry. Keiser wrote that “there is only one Bitcoin country,” pointing to El Salvador’s earlier, cleaner BTC-first strategy, and said U.S. efforts now are what happens “when shitcoiners run the table for too long.” This sets up a clash between a nation-state BTC model and Trump’s campaign-style crypto model. We’ll look some day and regret TrumpCoin was floated. We’ll regret ‘Crypto’ gained traction instead of Bitcoin only.…
