Pierre Rochard's call for the Federal Reserve to integrate Bitcoin into its stress tests came at an unusual moment: the Fed is soliciting public comment on its 2026 scenarios while simultaneously proposing new transparency requirements for how it builds and updates those models.
The timing creates a natural question that has nothing to do with whether Rochard's specific claims hold up: can the...
A single wallet on Hyperliquid holds a long position worth roughly $649.6 million in Ethereum (ETH), with 223,340 ETH entered at around $3,161.85, with a liquidation estimate near $2,268.37.
As of press time, ETH traded around $2,908.30, and the liquidation threshold sits about 22% below that. This is far enough to avoid imminent danger but close enough to matter if volatility accelerates.

President Donald Trump's announcement that he would not impose tariffs scheduled for Feb. 1 triggered a sharp reversal in risk assets, with Bitcoin rebounding above $90,000 after testing $87,300 earlier in the session.
The move erased most of a two-day selloff driven by trade-war fears tied to Trump's Greenland push, confirming Bitcoin's status as a high-beta macro asset that amplifies...
Senate Agriculture Chair John Boozman has now released updated crypto market structure text, posting a full bill PDF last night.
The release locks in a near-term Senate Agriculture path to markup next week, but it also hardens a political split that could determine whether Senate Banking gets a negotiated bridge or a rival marker for later talks.
Politico's Jasper Goodman reported the draft “has...
Bitcoin is struggling to build momentum around the $90,000 level, yet at least one headline-grabbing buyer appears to be leaning in the opposite direction.
Adam Back, the CEO of Blockstream, said on X (formerly Twitter) that a “Bitfinex whale” is purchasing roughly 450 Bitcoin per day at current price levels, a pace that would translate into about $40.6 million of daily demand with Bitcoin...
European leaders facing a Greenland-linked dispute with Washington could treat U.S. Treasurys as a leverage point.
That would test not just the headline size of foreign holdings, but the market’s capacity to absorb speed, and how quickly higher yields would filter into the dollar, U.S. credit conditions, and crypto liquidity.
The Financial Times has framed Greenland as a plausible flashpoint for...
Binance, the largest crypto exchange by trading volume, has listed Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin on its platform.
On Jan. 21, the exchange announced that it would open spot trading pairs, including RLUSD/USDT, RLUSD/U, and XRP/RLUSD, on Jan. 22 by 8 AM UTC.
Critically, Binance will initiate trading on the RLUSD/USDT and RLUSD/U pairs with zero fees until further notice.
To a casual trader, this reads...
At first glance, this looks like a story that lives on the back pages of a newspaper, Japanese government bonds with maturities that run so long they sound like a joke, 20 years, 30 years, 40 years.
If you own Bitcoin, you still end up in the blast radius.
Because when Japan’s long-dated bonds start to wobble, it is rarely just about Japan. It is about the world’s last big source of cheap money...
Canada's Prime Minister, Mark Carney, walked onto the World Economic Forum's Davos stage yesterday and said the quiet part out loud.
The rules-based order, the thing leaders love to invoke when they want the world to behave, is fading.
Carney called it a “pleasant fiction.”
He said we are living through a “rupture.”
He said great powers are using integration as a weapon, tariffs as leverage,...
Ethereum is currently reporting the highest daily network growth in its history, a statistical surge that ostensibly signals a massive return of user activity.
Over the past week, the Ethereum mainnet processed 2.9 million transactions, a new all-time high according to Token Terminal data.
This activity was accompanied by a sharp jump in daily active addresses, which rose to approximately 1.3...
