The most recent crash in the crypto market has undoubtedly been driven by an external shock rather than a protocol failure of any kind. The escalating conflict in the Middle East, a hawkish Federal Reserve, and prolonged economic disruption in the US are amongst the leading reasons for a broad risk-off move. Bitcoin fell to […]
U.S. banks are increasingly at risk of losing deposits to the digital assets space as stablecoins continue to gain traction. The concern comes amid growing stablecoin adoption, with the total supply in circulation having risen by roughly 40% over the past year to just over $300 billion.

The broader market correction continues in crypto, as bitcoin just slumped below $75,000 for the first time in almost a year, with ETH dumped beneath $2,200.

Saturday brought untypical volatility in the cryptocurrency markets, which, this time, was favorable for the bears as all digital assets turned red with substantial daily losses. Ripple’s XRP was not spared as it plunged to its lowest position since November 2024 (on most exchanges) at just over $1.50. It has rebounded slightly since then and […]
It’s hard to imagine now that just a few months ago, bitcoin was riding high, investors were hopeful about ‘Uptober,’ and the bulls dominated the market. In that not-so-distant past, the cryptocurrency was trading confidently within a six-digit price territory, and had just printed a new all-time high above $126,000. The community was full of […]

As such, the cryptocurrency extended its massive losses to almost $15,000 in just days, as it traded above $90,000 on Wednesday. The latest flash crash […]
