A modest reversal from Friday evening’s carnage in crypto markets is underway after some calming trade war-related remarks from both Beijing and Washington. The walk-backs began late Saturday when China’s Ministry of Commerce said its rate-earth export controls are not blanket bans, and that eligible applications will continue to receive licenses. The agency further said it expected those controls to have just a “minimal impact” on global production and supply chains. In D.C. meanwhile, Vice President Vance on Sunday morning said President Trump appreciates his friendship with Chinese Premier Xi Jinping and is willing to be a reasonable negotiator with…
The latest Cloudflare outage caused widespread disruption across crypto applications, demonstrating the sector’s heavy reliance on centralized internet infrastructure. As Cloudflare’s worst service disruption since 2019, the incident exposed a major contradiction within the crypto industry’s claims of decentralization and resilience. This outage raised difficult questions: Can genuine decentralization exist if a single provider can take down large swaths of the industry? Scale and Cause of the Cloudflare Outage The outage began at 11:20 UTC on November 18, following a database permissions change that triggered a failure in Cloudflare’s network. In its official incident report, Cloudflare explained that a bot…
Ethereum price today trades near $2,995, holding just above the critical $2,950 to $2,880 demand zone as sellers continue to pressure the structure ahead of November 19. The market remains locked inside a clear downtrend, with the descending trendline dominating price action and the EMA cluster reinforcing bearish control. ETH Extends Breakdown As Sellers Defend The Trendline ETH Price Action (Source: TradingView) Ethereum has failed to break the descending trendline that has capped every rebound since early October. Each rally attempt toward $3,350 to $3,450 has been rejected at the underside of this line, confirming a steady sequence of lower…
The Pentagon isn’t usually in the business of commodity speculation, but when national security is at stake, expect the old rules to bend. The Financial Times reports that the U.S. Defense Department has kicked off a $1 billion spree to stockpile critical minerals like rare earths. This includes everything from rare earths to strategic metals needed for electric vehicles, fighter jets, and semiconductors. The goal? Build domestic resilience. Break dependency on a Chinese supply chain that’s proven anything but dependable. The move to procure up to $1 billion worth of critical minerals is part of a global stockpiling effort aimed…
The crypto world faces a new worry after Vitalik Buterin shared a strong warning about the coming quantum era. He believes powerful quantum computers could break the core security of Bitcoin and Ethereum by 2028. This warning shakes the industry because these networks depend on elliptic curve cryptography for every transaction, wallet, and signature. The idea of sudden cryptographic failure creates fear across the community. This warning forces developers and investors to rethink the future. Many people celebrate growing adoption and rising institutional flows, yet few consider quantum risks. The quantum threat to blockchain grows as research teams push for…
Ethereum price has fallen about 7% in the past 24 hours and almost 24% over the month. Traders are split between expecting a rebound or preparing for more weakness. But a key on-chain metric is showing a setup that looks almost identical to June — the same setup that triggered a 116% Ethereum rally. The catch is that a deeper drop came first. The question now is whether the same thing is happening again. A June-Like Reset Is Taking Shape To understand this structure, we need to look at NUPL, the Net Unrealized Profit/Loss metric. It measures how much profit…
