Decades of monetary expansion have stoked inflation that has lingered above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target for more than five years, diluting the dollar’s value. Bitcoin, with its fixed supply of 21 million coins and transparent issuance schedule, serves as a neutral yardstick that exposes this debasement. Of course, this optical effect isn’t exclusive to bitcoin. Measuring house prices in terms of gold, the so-called Magnificent 7 stocks or the broader Nasdaq equity index would also point to fiat dilution in varying degrees. But for now, the message is clear. $BTC’s long-term appeal as an inflation hedge remains strong despite…

A crypto wallet linked to investment firm Multicoin Capital has deposited approximately 167,000 $HYPE tokens, valued at roughly $11.2 million, to Galaxy Digital’s over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk, according to blockchain tracking service Onchain Lens. The transaction, which occurred about 38 minutes before the report, was flagged by on-chain monitoring systems. What the Transaction Signals Deposits of significant token volumes to institutional OTC desks are widely interpreted by market analysts as an intention to sell. Unlike public exchange orders, OTC trades allow large holders to execute sales without immediately impacting the spot price, offering greater discretion and reduced slippage. This move…

Revolut, a crypto-friendly digital banking platform, said its Tether USDt ($USDT) delisting will not affect all customers globally. The delisting will affect Revolut customers in the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, while support for the stablecoin will continue in other markets, a spokesperson for the company told Cointelegraph. Revolut said the decision followed a review of its crypto services and risk considerations under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). “Revolut is discontinuing support for $USDT for customers in the EEA following a periodic review of our cryptocurrency offering in light of the evolving EU regulatory framework under…

Robinhood Chain’s onchain activity surged this week as a memecoin frenzy, a Pump.fun integration and a defecting Solana app converged on the barely week-old network — even as its largest single inflow traced to a stablecoin deposit rather than the meme trade. Cumulative addresses on the Arbitrum-based Layer 2 climbed toward 200,000 and protocol total value locked reached roughly $234 million, according to a network overview dashboard published by Entropy Advisors on Dune. The chain went live to the public on July 1, meaning nearly all of that growth was compressed into the past week, with activity accelerating over the…

After experiencing sharp corrections in June, Bitcoin fell below $60,000. Having recovered from lows of around $57,000, $BTC rose to levels around $64,000 but is currently trading around $62,500. While the answers to questions like “Has Bitcoin bottomed out? When will the bottom come? Will there be further declines?” remain uncertain, Glassnode, an on-chain data analytics company, has released an updated analysis that addresses these questions. Glassnode, in its weekly “The Week On-Chain” report, stated that Bitcoin is in a deep value zone but still lacks confirmation signals of a bottom. Bitcoin in Deep Value Zone! According to Glassnode, Bitcoin…

Centralized exchanges are moving away from speculative narratives and toward tokens with demonstrated utility. An analysis of over 10,000 listings across the 10 major exchanges, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Gate, MEXC, KuCoin, HTX, Kraken, and Crypto.com, shows blockchain infrastructure, DeFi, and tokenized real-world assets displacing meme and GameFi tokens at the top of exchange listing activity in the first half of 2026. The shift marks a break from the two prior cycles, in which listing pipelines were dominated by crypto-native, hype-driven categories. In Q2 2026, exchanges shifted listings toward blockchain infrastructure (64 listings) and DeFi (46 listings) tokens over speculative…

Elon Musk’s SpaceX has just moved Bitcoin for the first time in six months, but the extremely small volume of the transfer has stirred curiosity across the crypto community. Following recent data shared by the Arkham Intelligence platform, a crypto wallet associated with SpaceX has moved about $88 worth of Bitcoin to another wallet that it also controls. Is SpaceX running a test? With the transfer coming after about six months of silence, and the company only moving $88 worth of Bitcoin out of its massive $1.16 billion Bitcoin holdings, questions are rising about the motive behind such an unusual…
