Charles Hoskinson in a recent interview said, the cryptocurrency industry would be in a much stronger position if it were not so heavily influenced by US politics. He argued that regulatory uncertainty and political developments have repeatedly disrupted what would otherwise have been a normal market cycle. Hoskinson opened with a blunt assessment of the current situation, saying, “It’s completely dependent upon whether America can get its head out of its ass. And if we can just get out of this nonsense, then I think crypto is going to do really well.” A Normal Market Cycle Was Interrupted According to…

World, the digital identity network formerly known as Worldcoin, co-founded by Sam Altman, has opened a permanent flagship at 48 Oxford Street in London, placing its proof-of-human technology at the center of one of the world’s highest-footfall retail corridors. The opening marks the most visible commitment yet by Tools for Humanity, the operating company behind World’s hardware and software stack, to the UK crypto and digital identity market. This flagship London store has opened as the $WLD token has dropped by -5% over the past 24 hours, adding to its -30% crash over the past 14 days, with daily trading…

Traders typically do not rely on a single indicator to determine market trends. But this particular MACD has proved reliable as a standalone gauge through the price crash from the record high of $126,000. Since October, negative crossovers have reliably marked the start of steeper declines, while positive crossovers have preceded meaningful recovery rallies – including the December–January bounce and the February–May bounce. $BTC’s daily chart. (TradingView)The latest bullish crossover therefore points to a notable bounce ahead, though not necessarily the start of a full-blown new uptrend. That bigger move would need more confirmation, which is why the key resistance…

The market for tokenized real-world assets has nearly tripled in a single year — and that may only be the beginning. By the end of June 2026, on-chain value across tokenized RWAs reached $32.22 billion, up from roughly $11.8 billion a year earlier. Geoff Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, sees this as the early innings of a far larger shift, projecting that assets deployed in DeFi could hit $2.7 trillion by 2030. Key takeaways Tokenized RWA on-chain value reached $32.22 billion by June 2026, nearly triple the $11.8 billion recorded a year prior. US Treasuries lead…

Former SWIFT Chief Innovation Officer Tom Zschach has rejected online claims that the global financial messaging network plans to integrate or support $XRP. Zschach responded to posts on X that claimed SWIFT would work with established public tokens rather than create its own digital asset.

Europe Has the Rules. Now the Market Is Watching the Execution. The European Union became the first major jurisdiction to establish a comprehensive crypto asset framework through the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation. The framework gave Europe a chance to shape global standards while giving the industry greater legal certainty. In a July 6 opinion piece, Binance CEO Richard Teng described MiCA as “the world’s first comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto-assets.” He positioned it as a milestone for both digital asset development and responsible financial innovation. That early lead now depends on whether national regulators apply the rules consistently across…

After a few years of unrelenting growth, centralized perpetual futures trading is now experiencing some slowdown as users are becoming increasingly selective. The selectivity is indicative of risk aversion rather than an absence of demand. As a result, users have reduced their use of leverage and are waiting for clearer directional signals. Currently, Binance leads the market in terms of cumulative perpetual volume at approximately $7.9 trillion through 2026. OKX and MEXC each reached nearly $4 trillion in cumulative perpetuals, whereas Bybit had approximately $2.7 trillion.

Solana’s real-world asset transfer volume more than doubled over the past month, giving the network a stronger signal that tokenized assets are beginning to circulate rather than sit on-chain after issuance. RWA.xyz showed Solana’s RWA 30-day transfer volume at $8.68 billion as of July 6, up 105.76% from 30 days earlier. Distributed asset value rose 36.27% over the same period to $3.48 billion. Solana’s own data showed a similar increase in turnover in a related market. The network said tokenized asset spot volume across decentralized exchanges grew from $2.69 billion in the first quarter to $5.7 billion in the second…

Bitcoin has climbed back above $63,000, gaining about 2% over the past 24 hours, as lower oil prices and softer U.S. bond yields have improved sentiment toward risk assets despite the crypto market remaining in extreme fear. According to data from crypto.news, Bitcoin ($BTC) traded around $63,250 on Thursday after recovering alongside other major cryptocurrencies as geopolitical concerns tied to Iran eased. The move followed a retreat in crude oil prices from recent highs and lower Treasury yields, conditions that often encourage investors to move back into higher-risk assets. Although the recovery has pushed Bitcoin higher, investor confidence remains fragile.…
