What Is an $XRP ETF? An $XRP ETF is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the price of $XRP. These funds trade on regulated stock exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. Instead of buying $XRP on a crypto exchange and holding it in a digital wallet, investors purchase ETF shares through a standard brokerage account. $XRP is the native digital asset of the $XRP Ledger, an open-source blockchain originally developed by Ripple Labs. Ripple is a private company that uses $XRP for cross-border payment services, but the token itself is independent of any single issuer. $XRP ETFs…

Every dollar Robinhood Chain earns, a tenth goes to a DAO treasury controlled by strangers. The arrangement has been covered a dozen times as good news for Arbitrum’s token. Nobody has asked the other question: what a licensed brokerage that spent a decade removing intermediaries bought by becoming a tenant. NEW: Arbitrum gets 8% treasury and 2% dev funding from Robinhood Chain fees pic.twitter.com/ReiE2kqrnz — crypto.news (@cryptodotnews) July 9, 2026 There is a particular irony in a company whose entire founding pitch was the removal of intermediaries acquiring one. Robinhood spent a decade telling retail investors that the layers between…

US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded their largest 30-day net outflow since launching in January 2024 amid a crypto bear market. According to data from Galaxy Research, US Bitcoin ETFs saw $6.35 billion in net outflows over a trailing 30 trading days. It also comes as they registered their sixth week of outflows last week, bringing their cumulative net flow to $53.4 billion, down from their $63 billion peak in October 2025. Galaxy Research said the daily outflows are “still deepening day over day.” The outflows could reflect waning sentiment from institutional investors for Bitcoin. However, BlackRock US head of…

A newly created wallet, identified by the address beginning with 0x115, has withdrawn approximately $3.43 million worth of $币安人生 tokens from the Binance exchange. The transaction, first flagged by blockchain analytics platform Onchain Lens, involved a total of 11 million $币安人生 tokens. What the Withdrawal Signals Large token withdrawals from centralized exchanges are often interpreted by market participants as a sign of bullish sentiment or a long-term holding strategy. When tokens are moved to a private wallet, it typically reduces the available supply on exchanges, which can support price stability or appreciation over time. The new wallet now holds the…

BNY, which has more than $59tn in assets under custody and administration, is moving one of its core record-keeping businesses onto blockchain as Wall Street builds the infrastructure for tokenized funds, the Financial Times reported Thursday. “We think of BNY as modernizing a function that sits behind every single fund transaction by bringing the books and records onchain,” Carolyn Weinberg, chief product and innovation officer at the 242-year-old financial services giant. BNY, which services about $8.6 trillion in assets across 7.6 million accounts, said moving its transfer agency onto blockchain would create a single record of ownership, cutting out the…

Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor has published a new assessment of the company’s long-term Bitcoin strategy. Saylor stated that despite the heavy balance sheet pressure experienced during the 2022 bear market, they did not back down from their $BTC strategy and subsequently strengthened the company’s financial position through aggressive purchases. Saylor recalled a speech he gave about Bitcoin in October 2022, when the $BTC price was around $20,000. At that time, Strategy held 130,000 Bitcoin, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.6 billion. Following the stock split, MSTR shares were trading at around $24. However, market conditions deteriorated sharply in a…

The UK Treasury has set Q1 2027 for its first tokenized sovereign bond transaction, but the project has remained dependent on finding a workable method to settle its cash leg on-chain. CoinDesk reported that the missing payment mechanism has held back institutional use of digital bonds for almost seven years, even as governments and financial firms have built platforms for issuing tokenized securities. Known as the Digital Gilt Instrument, or DIGIT, the pilot will test whether distributed ledger technology can reduce costs and improve the operation of UK capital markets. HM Treasury first announced the project in 2024 before selecting…

Stablecoin infrastructure firm Brale is rolling out an interoperability protocol designed to end what it says is a bottleneck in the industry’s growth: moving a rapidly expanding number of custom stablecoins across blockchains. Dubbed ION Protocol, it allows participating stablecoins to move between blockchains by burning tokens on one network and minting an equivalent amount on another. Unlike most blockchain bridges, the model does not require liquidity pools to be pre-funded on every supported chain. While the $300 billion stablecoin market is dominated by Tether’s USDT and Circle Internet’s $USDC, new participants are piling in. Banks, fintechs, crypto firms and…

Altura has announced that the account holding the cash that is meant for the last round of payouts from its stablecoin vault has been temporarily restricted by the bank. The DeFi yield protocol wrote, “The situation is entirely outside of our control, and there is no further action we can take until we receive an update from the bank,” which is a confirmation that the restriction is delaying a wind-down of its treasury that started in June. What did Altura say happened? Before the freeze, Altura had already lined up the final step, which was an over-the-counter (OTC) deal to…
