The conventional wisdom says veteran holders don’t sell into weakness. They accumulate through drawdowns, harvest gains during euphoria, and otherwise sit still while newer cohorts churn.
Late 2025 is testing that model. Across Ethereum, XRP, and pockets of the DeFi stack, dormant whales are moving supply to exchanges as mid-term buyers flee, creating a bifurcated distribution pattern that...
BlackRock, the largest asset management firm in the world, has described tokenization as the most critical market upgrade since the early internet.
On the other hand, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) describes it as a volatile, untested architecture that can amplify financial shocks at machine speed.
Both institutions are looking at the same innovation. Yet, the distance between their...
Payout speed in crypto casinos is often described in minutes or hours. However, the real drivers live beneath those numbers. Transaction confirmation policy, liquidity staging, internal queue logic, and wallet routing can all influence whether a withdrawal feels instant or drawn out. Many people looking into this are really trying to answer one question: Is the delay blockchain-related, or...
Bitcoin (BTC) jumped 11% from its Dec. 1 lows at $83,822.76 to over $93,000 overnight, driven by a convergence of macro and micro developments.
The Federal Reserve formally ended quantitative tightening (QT) on Dec. 1, coinciding with the New York Fed conducting approximately $25 billion in morning repo operations and another $13.5 billion overnight, the largest such injections since 2020.

The broader Solana memecoin economy is currently facing a liquidity crisis and collapsing volumes, but one asset has successfully decoupled from the sector-wide decline.
According to CryptoSlate data, PIPPIN, a token born from an AI experiment in early 2024, has emerged as one of the best-performing crypto tokens in the last 30 days, surging 556% to defy a market trend defined by capital flight...
Bitcoin was launched fifteen years ago. The industry has ballooned into a nearly $4 trillion ecosystem, yet Satoshi’s vision of everyday payments remains largely unfulfilled. The hope for peer-to-peer payments has shifted to stablecoins. But rather than replacing banks, stablecoins risk becoming bank-like infrastructure. Stronger regulation in the U.S. and Europe may push them toward centralized...
XRP spot ETFs have posted one of the most consistent inflow streaks of this quarter, attracting roughly $756 million across eleven consecutive trading sessions since their Nov. 13 launch.
Yet the strength in the ETF demand contrasts with XRP’s price performance.
According to CryptoSlate’s data, the token has fallen about 20% over the same period and currently trades near $2.03.

Vitalik Buterin recently sent a 256 ETH grant to two messaging projects, Session and SimpleX Chat, without the usual ecosystem fanfare.
The gesture was modest in size but pointed in intent, because both applications occupy a part of the internet that rarely gets real support: metadata-resistant communication.
Their designs tackle the parts of digital messaging that encryption alone cannot protect...
Jerome Powell stepped in front of cameras on Dec. 1 at the Hoover Institution’s George Shultz memorial event with three audiences watching: bond traders pricing an 87% chance of a December rate cut, a divided Federal Open Market Committee bracing for possible dissents, and a Bitcoin market that just bled $4.3 billion from US spot ETFs in November alone.
The event billed itself as an academic...
Solana’s memecoin trading registered $13.9 billion in monthly volume last month, the lowest print since February 2024, when the mania hadn’t yet caught fire.
At the same time, Polymarket clocked $3.7 billion in volume, its best month since launch, while Kalshi posted $4.25 billion in volume, its second-best performance. Together, the two largest prediction platforms moved nearly $8 billion, equal...
