Analysts see near-term downside for BTC as geopolitical pressure, reduced leverage, and policy uncertainty weigh on sentiment. The world’s largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, is struggling to sustain upward momentum as renewed trade tensions between the United States and China and U.S. President Donald Trump’s expanded tariff measures add fresh pressure to global risk assets. After rebounding from last week’s correction, Bitcoin hovered around $108,000, but traders remain cautious amid a fragile macroeconomic backdrop. Market data indicate that despite steady accumulation by U.S. spot investors, futures markets are dominated by short positioning and low leverage appetite — a combination that could limit…

After more than half a century, U.S. lawmakers are moving to overhaul one of the country’s cornerstone financial crime laws — the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). A bipartisan group led by Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has introduced the STREAMLINE Act, a bill that aims to modernize the BSA’s reporting requirements to reflect inflation and current economic realities. What the Bill Does Under the STREAMLINE Act, financial institutions would see long-awaited updates to mandatory reporting thresholds: These are the first such adjustments since the law’s passage in 1970, when $10,000 carried more than $80,000 in today’s purchasing power.…

As property prices soar and home ownership becomes increasingly unreachable, many young Australians believe that cryptocurrency could have been their ticket to financial independence.

Volatility returns as Bitcoin stabilizes near $108,000 amid dollar strength, gold weakness, and mounting inflation concerns. Bitcoin rebounded from $106,000 on Wednesday, successfully closing the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) weekend futures gap — but the move failed to inspire much optimism among traders. The world’s largest cryptocurrency continues to face tight liquidity conditions and macroeconomic uncertainty as attention turns to Friday’s U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. The BTC price hovered around $108,400 after the Wall Street open, tracking sideways while gold extended its steep decline from record highs. Analysts note that Bitcoin’s short-term bounce came largely as gold’s sell-off…

The precious metal’s steepest two-day fall in over a decade rattles investors, but Bitcoin’s resilience offers a sharp contrast. Gold — long regarded as the ultimate store of value — has just suffered one of its worst collapses in modern history. In a stunning 24-hour downturn, the gold market erased $2.5 trillion in capitalization, a figure that exceeds Bitcoin’s entire market value. According to data from The Kobeissi Letter, the 8% plunge marks gold’s largest two-day drop since 2013, shattering investor confidence in the metal often seen as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty. The sell-off followed a period…

Stablecoins are quietly reshaping the $350 billion global gaming industry, becoming a core financial infrastructure for game developers and creators, according to a new report from the Blockchain Gaming Alliance (BGA). The report highlights that fiat-backed stablecoins like USDT and USDC are no longer limited to payments or DeFi liquidity — they’re now driving a shift toward predictable and sustainable in-game economies. Unlike speculative play-to-earn (P2E) tokens, which fluctuate wildly in value, stablecoins give studios the ability to price in-game items, pay creators, and manage player rewards without market shocks. From Volatility to Predictability The BGA report underscores that the…
