The trading platform asked the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to raise the position limit on BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) options from 250,000 contracts to one million.
On the surface, the proposal looks procedural. In reality...
As of mid-afternoon South Korea time, Solana-based tokens traded with double-digit gains on Upbit following a hack that stole roughly 44.5 billion won ($32 million).

The US Securities and Exchange Commission approved spot Bitcoin ETFs at block 826,565. By block 840,000, those funds held more than 800,000 BTC. By block 925,421, U.S. spot ETFs collectively held **≈5–6%** of circulating BTC (per live trackers at the time).
Only after reading does the translation arrive: those blocks correspond to January 2024, April 2024, and Nov. 27, 2025. The story makes sense...
The crypto markets staged a convincing comeback on Nov. 27, snapping a prolonged period of stagnation as a critical shift in the United States’ liquidity forced capital back into risk assets.

Bitcoin’s hashrate is near record levels, yet miner revenue per unit of compute has fallen to record lows, pushing the network into a ‘high-security, low-profitability’ phase.

This is a speculative report translated for non-specialists. The narrator is an investigator who arrived long after humans were gone. Everything described as measured relies on real Bitcoin mechanics: block intervals, difficulty/target, timestamp rules, and data available from block headers and the coinbase transaction.

Bitcoin’s recent slide below $80,000 has triggered a wave of sleep disruption across the retail trading community, according to a new report from CEX.io.
The flagship digital asset has since rebounded to about $88,000, but the roughly 31% drawdown from its recent peak left many investors monitoring prices through the night.
This behavior has moved beyond simple anxiety, as nearly 70% of surveyed...
Texas has taken the first formal step toward becoming the first US state to hold Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset.
