Prediction market platform Kalshi has been cleared to offer margin trading to professional clients, a move designed to make its platform more appealing to institutional investors. The license, granted to Kalshi’s affiliate Kinetic Markets, allows it to operate as a futures commission merchant, according to a filing with the National Futures Association. Before margin trading goes live, the company still needs a sign-off from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) for rule changes that would enable trading without full collateral up front. Margin trading lets investors open positions with less upfront capital, a practice common in traditional markets but new…

Google has set a 2029 deadline for its post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration, warning that “quantum frontiers” could be closer than they appear. On Wednesday, Google said rapid progress in quantum computing hardware and quantum error correction, along with updated estimates of how quickly a quantum machine could break today’s encryption standards, has heightened the urgency to act sooner rather than later. “Quantum computers will pose a significant threat to current cryptographic standards, and specifically to encryption and digital signatures,” Google said, while also noting that PQC migration is needed for users to use authentication services securely. This is the first…

Why is Ethereum Price Crashing? The current decline in Ethereum’s value is not an isolated event but a combination of technical breakdowns and fundamental shifts. After failing to sustain momentum above $2,200 earlier this month, $ETH faced a series of “sell-the-news” events, including the aftermath of the FOMC rate decision and persistent outflows from spot Ethereum ETFs. Ethereum price in USD over the past week Key Factors Behind the Drop: Whale Capitulation: On-chain data indicates that long-dormant “ICO-era” whales have recently moved large quantities of $ETH to exchanges like Coinbase, signaling an intent to sell. Weak Network Retention: Despite high…

Ethereum ($ETH) price is clinging to a 2.93% gain in March, its first green month since August 2025. Every month from September through February closed in the red, creating a six-month losing streak that wiped out over 50% of $ETH’s value. With only a few days left in March, the question is whether Ethereum can hold this gain or whether the forces building against it will flip the month red and extend the streak to seven. March Started Strong, but the Second Half Tells a Different Story The monthly returns chart shows the damage. September 2025 fell 5.59%. October dropped…

Trump-linked $WLFI mints billions for the Trump family as UAE cash and Binance deals turbocharge a token structure that leaves many investors underwater. Summary $WLFI’s float near $0.11 on Binance implies roughly $2.94B market cap on a 24.66B circulating supply, after raising over $550M for a “stablecoin‑centric” DeFi push. A UAE‑backed firm bought 49% of World Liberty Financial for $500M days before Trump’s inauguration, deepening geopolitical and ethics concerns around the family’s crypto wealth. Reporting from WSJ, Reuters, CNN, Forbes, and others shows $WLFI’s structure channels outsized upside to Trump‑linked insiders while many late‑stage token buyers shoulder volatility and losses.…

The FCA has announced that it will be publishing hidden trading data in order to combat the negative effects of underreporting on the London Stock Exchange. The data the FCA will be publishing covers a large portion of the market and includes trades completed in dark pools and private platforms. The regulator believes that present data often misses nearly 75% of actual trading volume because it only tracks the London Stock Exchange’s central order book, ignoring “dark pools” and off-exchange venues. Is the London stock market being made to look worse than it really is? Britain’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)…
