Bitcoin price roared past $113,000 today, climbing from $108,000 earlier in the session, as traditional safe-haven assets took a hit.  Spot gold extended its losses to $4,085.39 per ounce, down more than 6%, while spot silver plunged as much as 8.7%, marking its steepest drop since 2021. Bitcoin’s surge came after Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller signaled a major shift in U.S. crypto policy, announcing a “skinny master account” program. This initiative would give eligible fintechs and digital-asset firms limited, direct access to the Fed’s payment system, bypassing traditional banks.  Waller framed distributed ledgers, DeFi, and crypto assets as integral…

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Bitcoin is once again under pressure as the market navigates a volatile and uncertain phase. After briefly reclaiming the $111K level, the world’s largest cryptocurrency is struggling to maintain $110K as a stable support zone.

A quiet migration is underway among Bitcoin’s wealthiest holders — from cold storage to custodians. A new wave of U.S. exchange-traded funds (ETFs) is allowing longtime Bitcoiners to fold their holdings into the traditional financial system without selling a single sat.  The change comes after regulators approved “in-kind” transactions for spot Bitcoin ETFs this summer, a mechanism that lets investors deposit Bitcoin directly into a fund in exchange for shares, according to Bloomberg reporting. This mechanism is a tax-neutral move standard across equities and commodities ETFs. The result: volatile digital assets become regulated, reportable holdings on brokerage statements, instantly easier…

Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller says the central bank is entering a “new era” in payments — one that openly embraces decentralized finance (DeFi), distributed ledgers, and digital asset innovation as part of the mainstream financial system. Speaking Tuesday at the Fed’s first-ever Payments Innovation Conference in Washington, Waller said the central bank intends to play an “active role” in the crypto revolution transforming the global payments landscape.  The conference is ongoing, but Bitcoin’s price reacted positively after a rough night.

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Polygon Foundation CEO Sandeep Nailwal has publicly questioned his “loyalty toward Ethereum,” igniting a rare, unvarnished bout of soul-searching across the ecosystem that drew immediate responses from core contributors, investors, and ultimately Vitalik Buterin himself. The exchange, which unfolded on X over the past 10 hours, centers on whether the Ethereum Foundation (EF) adequately supports its builders, how Layer-2 projects are recognized within Ethereum’s narrative and market “beta,” and whether the community’s culture has drifted from its original ideals.

Bitcoin may be the world’s most secure digital asset, but for years its base layer has limited the kinds of financial applications developers could build on it.  That changes with the launch of Arkade, the first significant Bitcoin layer-2 solution since the Lightning Network nearly a decade ago. Developed by Ark Labs, the protocol enters public beta with a bold mission: to turn Bitcoin into a programmable financial platform without compromising the security that has made it “digital gold,” according to a note shared with Bitcoin Magazine.  Arkade builds on the Ark protocol, first introduced two years ago, which promised…

Bitcoin’s corporate treasuries and bitcoin mining sector have become two of the defining narratives of this cycle. From (Micro)Strategy’s MSTR billion-dollar balance sheet buys to the rise of MetaPlanet and the explosive growth of bitcoin mining companies, institutional and industrial adoption have emerged as powerful structural supports for the network. But now, after years of near-constant accumulation and market outperformance, the data suggests we’re entering a critical inflection point — one that could determine whether Bitcoin’s corporate treasuries and mining equities continue to lead or begin to lag as the next phase of the cycle unfolds. Bitcoin Treasury Accumulation Our…

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure The Bitcoin supercycle theory emerged during the last bull run, when expectations were that the price was going to hit $100,000 back then.

Analyst Weslad highlights this in a post, showing that the BTC price is actually far from its actual peak if the supercycle is still in play.

I. The Forgotten Blueprint In July 2014, when Bitcoin was trading near six hundred dollars and most executives dismissed it as an internet novelty, Pierre Rochard published an essay titled Speculative Attack. It was a dense, Austrian-leaning treatise that argued Bitcoin would not be adopted because it was “better technology,” but because economic reality would force adoption. People would eventually borrow weak money to buy strong money, and in doing so, trigger a chain reaction that undermines fiat itself. A decade later, that mechanism has quietly migrated from individual investors to corporate treasuries. Public companies are now issuing debt and…
