On-chain data shows whale wallets pocketed $7M in tokenized gold profits in under 48 hours. The same Iran conflict that sent gold soaring is now fueling oil and the dollar.

When the company in question builds stablecoin settlement infrastructure, it tells you something fundamental about where the payments industry believes it needs to be – and how urgently it needs to get there. Mastercard had options. It could have partnered with BVNK. It could have taken a minority stake. It could have acquired a smaller stablecoin infrastructure player for a fraction of the price. Instead, it paid $1.8 billion – more than double BVNK’s…

Bitcoin ($BTC) reached an intraday high near $69,300 on Wednesday, a good start to the month of April. However, according to an analysis from market watcher TARA, it could precede a 15% drop to sub-$60,000. Key Points Today’s Bitcoin recovery to near $69,300 retested the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement zone. According to the analysis, the crypto leader would retest this level again, particularly because it did not fully capture the liquidity there. The RSI remains under oversold…
