Pantera-backed Solana Company kicks off APAC staking infrastructure buildout
Solana Company’s Pacific Backbone initiative will initially involve developing a high-speed, low-latency network connecting Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Pantera, alongside Summer Capital, co-led the more than $500 million funding round that launched the Solana Company in September. Solana Company (NASDAQ: HSDT) is kicking off an infrastructure buildout in the Asia-Pacific region, a first step in directly supporting Solana staking and validator operations. This so-called Pacific Backbone initiative will involve developing a high-speed, low-latency network initially starting with connections between Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore, and Hong Kong, according to an announcement on Monday. The reality is, we see an opportunity to improve Solana staking and validation for users across Asia," said Cosmo Jiang, general partner at Pantera Capital Management, a major HSDT backer. "We believe this investment roadmap will be critical for anyone holding and building on Solana and we expect it to diversify our revenue." Pantera, alongside Summer Capital, co-led the more than $500 million funding round that launched the Solana Company in September amid the so-called digital asset treasury investment trend that has since reversed. The firm was initially pitched as a SOL token holding vehicle that would also invest in other Solana operations. In order to target mass adoption, Solana Company intends to build out DeFi, liquid staking, AMMs, RPC services, and execution services for its traditional finance partners in the APAC region," the firm noted. "Solana Company plans to begin building out the network infrastructure immediately, expanding to optimizing performance and adopting new technologies by the second half of 2026, and anticipates launching liquidity related new products and services within the next 12 to 18 months." Earlier this month, the firm partnered with Anchorage Digital and Kamino on a joint venture to enable institutions to borrow against natively staked SOL while keeping assets in custody. The Solana Company has held over 2.2 million SOL since it began acquiring tokens in October, making it the second-largest publicly traded holder, according to The Block's data. The total staked amount of Solana by public companies has largely held consistent despite a market retrenching that has seen Solana DAT valuations crater to all-time lows in recent days. HSDT shares were down 8.3% Monday morning. Other crypto-related stocks are in the red on Monday, with bellwether crypto stock Coinbase down over 3% and major Ethereum treasury firm Bitmine down over 4%, according to The Block’s equities tracker. The biggest loser is small-cap Bitcoin treasury Prenetics, which is down over 7%. HSDT is down over 90% since the firm first pivoted towards its Solana-related strategy in September. The firm, formerly Helius Medical Technologies, reportedly maintains its neurotech and medical device operations. #FactCheck #MegadropLista #VETUSDT #xmucanX #satoshiNakamato

Bitdeer CEO says bitcoin balance 'will not always be zero' as miner eyes land acquisitions after liq
Bitdeer CEO Jihan Wu said the company’s 0 BTC balance is not permanent as the firm prioritizes liquidity for land acquisitions. The company reported zero bitcoin holdings on Saturday after selling its final 943.1 BTC in a single week, emptying reserves that stood at roughly 2,000 BTC at year-end. Bitdeer BBTDR0% CEO Jihan Wu said the company's zero-bitcoin balance is not permanent after the miner announced it had sold its remaining BTC treasury over the weeken In an X post, Wu stated that the miner’s decision “does not mean it will always be zero in the future.” The move was confirmed in a weekly production update posted to X on Saturday. In the week ending Feb. 20, the company sold 943.1 BTC from reserves and 189.8 BTC it had mined during the period. The drawdown accelerated through February, with holdings falling from about 1,530 BTC at the end of January to 943.1 BTC by Feb. 13, before the remaining balance was liquidated, The Block reported. In a statement on Monday, Bitdeer said the sales should "not be a concern for the broader market." The company cited plans to prepare liquidity for "multiple non-binding powered land acquisition opportunities" while noting that its hashrate "will continue to grow" alongside ongoing bitcoin mining. The disclosure follows Bitdeer’s announcement on Feb. 19 that it plans to raise $300 million through a private placement of convertible senior notes due 2032, with an option for initial purchasers to buy an additional $45 million. The company also disclosed a $43.5 million registered direct equity offering tied to repurchases of its 5.25% convertible senior notes due 2029. Bitdeer said proceeds are intended to fund datacenter expansion and advance its pivot toward high-performance computing and AI infrastructure. The selloff comes as mining economics have tightened. Bitcoin network difficulty jumped 14.7% in the latest adjustment, and hashprice has fallen below $30 per PH/s/day, according to The Block's data dashboard. Bitdeer's gross margin slipped to 4.7% in the fourth quarter from 7.4% a year earlier, even as revenue rose 226% to $224.8 million and the company reported net income of $70.5 million compared with a $531.9 million loss in the prior-year period. Bitdeer’s zero-BTC position sets it apart from publicly traded peers, according to BitcoinTreasuries data. MARA Holdings holds roughly 53,250 BTC, while Riot Platforms reports about 18,000 BTC. Strategy, the largest corporate holder, has accumulated more than 717,000 BTC. Bitcoin was trading near $64,700 late Sunday, down more than 4% from $67,600 earlier in the day, according to The Block's prices page. The decline followed a series of macroeconomic headlines that triggered roughly $360 million in long-position liquidations across crypto markets before bitcoin staged a modest rebound above $65,000 early Monday morning. #writetoearn #YiHeBinance #Shibarium #jasmyustd #PEPEATH .
Bitcoin price continues to trade sideways between $65,729 and $71,746, extending its consolidation s
Bitcoin Weekly Forecast: No recovery in sight A hawkish Fed, alongside rising US-Iran geopolitical tensions, adds pressure on BTC. US-spot ETFs record an outflow of $403.90 million through Thursday, pointing to the fifth consecutive week of withdrawals. Institutional outflows persist this week. According to SoSoValue data, spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded an outflow of $403.90 million through Thursday. If this trend continues through Friday, it will be the fifth straight week of outflows. A similar trend was seen from mid-February to mid-March, where BTC crashed from $100,000 to roughly $80,000. If this trend continues, BTC could see further correction in the upcoming weeks. Bitcoin (BTC) price continues to trade within a range-bound zone, hovering around $67,000 at the time of writing on Friday, and falling slightly so far this week, with no signs of recovery. The ongoing price action heightens the risk of a breakdown as institutional demand continues to weaken, pointing to a fifth consecutive week of withdrawals from spot BTC Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). In addition, hawkish Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) Minutes, alongside rising geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, are further pressuring the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. The Minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) January meeting showed on Wednesday that policymakers were deeply divided over the necessity and timing of further rate cuts amid concerns about inflation. However, on the corporate front, Michael Saylor announced on X on Tuesday that Strategy (MSTR) purchased 2,486 BTC, following the purchase of 1,142 BTC in the previous week. Tuesday’s purchase brings the firm’s total holdings to 717,131 BTC, highlighting the firm’s continued aggressive accumulation strategy and long-term conviction in Bitcoin, despite ongoing market weakness, with an average purchase price of $76,027 The cautiously balanced stance, rather than dovish, continues to support the US Dollar (USD), with the US Dollar Index (DXY) trading near two-week high around 98.00 as of Friday. The less dovish FOMC Minutes dampened risk appetite, pressuring risky assets, with Bitcoin (BTC) dropping toward the lower consolidating support at $65,700 before rebounding slightly on Friday. In fact, several Federal Reserve (Fed) officials indicated that more rate cuts could be warranted if inflation declines as expected, while others cautioned that easing too early could compromise the central bank’s 2% inflation target. Apart from a hawkish tilt by the US central bank, the US military is ready for possible strikes on Iran as soon as Saturday, CBS reported on Wednesday. Geopolitical tensions put the lid on BTC K33 Research’s report this week noted that sentiment remains highly defensive in the perpetual market. The chart below shows that the funding rate averaged -0.64% over the last seven days, marking the eleventh consecutive day of negative weekly funding rates. These negative levels mirror the duration of the negative funding rate cycle between April 28 and May 8 in 2025. As funding remained muted, notional Open Interest (OI) continued to fall, dropping below 260,000 BTC for the first time since October 12 on Tuesday. These developments in the perpetual market signal that longs were steadily exiting during BTC’s slow consolidation, suggesting a low near-term risk of derivatives-driven squeezes. Bitcoin Perpetuals: Funding Rates vs BTC Price (left) chart Bitcoin Perpetuals: Open Interest (right) chart The analyst concluded that, “While sell pressure appears to be moderating, participation and capital flows remain weak, leverage is still being reduced, and risk may be underpriced in options markets. A durable recovery still depends on renewed spot demand capable of sustaining price beyond the recent rebound zone.” The Bitcoin accumulation trend score (7-day Moving Average) chart below shows that during the first down leg in November 2025, the market absorbed heavy selling pressure aggressively, similar to the post-LUNA & FTX crash responses in May and November 2022, respectively. Weaker accumulation seen at $60,000 However, in the second leg, the recent drop to $60,000 on February 6 saw accumulation weaker than the strong, aggressive dip-buying that followed the LUNA crash. This indicates that current buying interest lacks the urgency and intensity seen during past major capitulation events, which could reinforce the current defensive, range-bound market structure. Bitcoin accumulation trend score (7-day Moving Average) chart Source: Glassnode Reuters Breakingviews reported on Friday that growing concerns about Tether’s financial risk profile persist despite its continued dominance in the stablecoin market. While USDT has grown and remains highly profitable, the company still does not publish full, independent audits of its reserves, as it is based in El Salvador, which is hardly known for its tough financial regulation. The report noted that Tether’s equity cushion is shrinking. It declined from $7.1 billion to around $6.3 billion between the end of 2024 and the end of 2025, even as the volume of USDT outstanding surged. As a percentage ofassets, equity was 3.3% on December 31 last year, down from 4.9% a year earlier and 5.6% at the end of 2023. In other words, if Tether’s assets lose more than 3.3% of their value, it would no longer have sufficient reserves to redeem all the tokens at their dollar peg,” says Liam Proud. At the same time, reserves are becoming riskier. Cash-like reserves, including repurchase agreements, bank deposits and US Treasury bills, were 76% of total assets in December 2025, compared with a recent historical range of around 80% to 85%. The flipside is that riskier investments like Bitcoin, Gold and secured loans now make up 24% of the total, compared with around 15% to 20% previously. A simultaneous drop in Bitcoin and Gold, or losses on its $17 billion loan book, could pressure its capital buffer. Although USDT remains stable and shows no immediate signs of strain, the report warns that any loss of confidence could have far-reaching consequences. As a core liquidity pillar of the crypto ecosystem, a disruption in USDT could destabilize trading markets. Even possible to imagine major exchanges like Binance helping to rescue it in a crisis, effectively making it too big to fail. The report concluded that Tether remains resilient, but its growing size and thinner safety margin increase systemic risk if market conditions deteriorate. Bitcoin weekly chart shows price action resembling that of the late-2021-2022 bear market. In 2021, BTC hit a new all-time high (ATH) of $69,000 in November and corrected 77.57% from the high to the 2022 bottom of around $15,476 in November 2022 in 378 days. Then consolidated for the next 112 days, before the start of another bull cycle in 2023. In the 2025-2026 period, BTC reached a new ATH at $126,199 in October 2025 and has since corrected by 47% through the third week of February, as of writing on Friday, slipping below the 200-week Exponential Moving Average at $68,065. If the current regime follows the 2021-2022 pattern, BTC could see further correction, reaching a low of $28,300 (77.51% from the 2025 ATH) on October 19, 2026. Then consolidate for the next 112 days before the start of another bull cycle (similarly seen in 2023 as discussed above). On the daily chart, the Crypto King has been consolidating within a range between $65,729 and $71,746 since February 7. BTC started the week on a negative note, declined in the first half, and rebounded slightly on Thursday after retesting the lower consolidation boundary at $65,729. As of writing on Friday, BTC is trading at $67,200. If BTC closes below the lower consolidation level at $65,729 on a daily basis, it could extend the decline toward the key support level at $60,000. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 36, below the neutral level of 50, suggesting bearish momentum. However, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bullish crossover on Sunday, which remains in place, suggesting that upside bias has not been invalidated yet. If BTC continues to find support around the lower consolidation range at $65,729, it could extend the advance toward the upper consolidation range at $71,746. #Fatihcoşar #Altcoins! #MegadropLista #YiHeBinance #TrendingTopic

Missouri advances bitcoin reserve bill to House committee, reviving crypto treasury push
Missouri has advanced its state bitcoin reserve bill to the House Commerce Committee after similar efforts failed last year. HB 2080 seeks to create a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Fund and allow the state treasurer to receive, invest, and hold bitcoin. Missouri has advanced its legislation to create a state bitcoin BTC-4.80% reserve to the State House Commerce Committee, after similar efforts failed to materialize last yea House Bill 2080, introduced by Republican Representative Ben Keathley, seeks to create a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Fund within the state treasury and authorize the Missouri State Treasurer to receive, invest, and hold bitcoin under certain conditions. Specifically, the bill would allow the Treasurer to accept gifts, grants, or donations of bitcoin from eligible Missouri residents or governmental entities and to custody those holdings for at least five years before any sale, transfer, or conversion, according to the bill summary. The bill would also empower the Treasurer to purchase cryptocurrency using state funds and permit Missouri's government entities to accept approved digital assets for taxes, fees, and other payments. It would also require the Treasurer to prepare a biennial public report detailing fund activity. The proposed legislation received its first and second readings in January 2026 and was referred to the House Commerce Committee on Feb. 19. The bill represents Keathley's second attempt at establishing Missouri's bitcoin treasury. His earlier measure, HB 1217, introduced in February 2025, similarly sought to establish a dedicated bitcoin reserve fund with the Treasurer as custodian. That bill received a hearing in the House Special Committee on Intergovernmental Affairs in March 2025 but did not advance, ultimately dying in committee before the session ended. By advancing a similar bill into a new committee, Missouri lawmakers are again pursuing a state-level bitcoin treasury concept that has gained traction in U.S. policy debates over the past year. The U.S. federal government itself created a national strategic bitcoin reserve in 2025 following President Donald Trump's March executive order. Multiple other U.S. states are exploring the idea of bitcoin reserves. Lawmakers in Kansas and Florida have advanced similar proposals in the legislature, while Arizona, Texas, and New Hampshire have passed their crypto reserve legislation. #ZAIBOTIO #Shibarium #BinanceHerYerde #xmucanX #YiHeBinance
Bitdeers Bitcoin-Kasse sinkt auf null, nachdem Miner verbleibende 943 BTC liquidiert.
Bitdeer berichtete am 20. Februar über null Bitcoin-Bestände und schloss damit einen achtwöchigen Rückgang von ungefähr 2.000 BTC zum Jahresende ab. Das Unternehmen hat seine gesamte verbleibende Reserve von 943,1 BTC in einer einzigen Woche verkauft, zusätzlich zu den 189,8 BTC, die es während des Zeitraums geschürft hat. Die Liquidation macht Bitdeer zum größten börsennotierten Bitcoin-Miner nach selbst geschürftem Hashrate, der kein BTC in seiner Bilanz hat. Bitdeer Technologies hat seine Unternehmens-Bitcoin-Kasse vollständig geleert und berichtet, dass am 20. Februar null BTC gehalten wurden, laut einem wöchentlichen Produktionsupdate, das das Unternehmen am Samstag auf X veröffentlicht hat.
XRP ticks up above $1.40 support, but waning retail demand suggests caution.
XRP holds $1.40 support amid ETF inflows, weak derivatives market institutional investor interest. A weak derivatives market, with futures Open Interest dropping to $2.32 billion, may restrict XRP’s ability to sustain recovery XRP attracts $4 million in spot ETF inflows on Thursday, signaling renewed institutional investor interest. The remittance token’s short-term bullish outlook mirrors subtle intraday gains characterising major crypto assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Ripple (XRP) is trading above a critical support at $1.40 at the time of writing on Friday, signaling stability ahead of a potential breakout toward the weekly open of $1.48. XRP maintains stability as ETF inflows return XRP spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) attracted $4 million in inflows on Thursday, outpacing both Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs, which saw outflows of $166 million and $130 million, respectively. The cumulative ETF inflows stand at $1.23 billion, and total assets under management have risen above $1 billion. Despite the mild increase on Thursday, overall sentiment remains shaky, considering net assets have declined from the record $1.65 billion seen in early January. The XRP derivatives market paints a grimmer picture, with futures Open Interest (OI) falling to $2.32 billion on Friday from $2.45 billion the previous day. For context, retail interest peaked at an annual high of $4.55 billion on January 6, which was significantly below the OI record high of $10.94 billion reached in July. Notably increased demand from retail traders indicates that investors are confident in XRP’s outlook and its ability to sustain an uptrend. Hence, traders should temper their expectations as futures OI continues to wane.Notably increased demand from retail traders indicates that investors are confident in XRP’s outlook and its ability to sustain an uptrend. Hence, traders should temper their expectations as futures OI continues to wane. Technical outlook: XRP holds key support, eyes on a potential breakout XRP remains above support at $1.40 despite its upside appearing limited by the downward-sloping 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1.69, the 100-day EMA at $1.90 and the 200-day EMA at $2.12. The SuperTrend indicator on the daily chart holds above XRP, seemingly capping potential rebounds at $1.72. This indicator integrates the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge market volatility and highlight the overall trend. Until the price rises above the SuperTrend and its colour turns green, the path of least resistance could remain adamantly downward. Subsequently, a daily close below the immediate $1.40 support may accelerate XRP downward toward the October 10 low at $1.25. The February 6 low sits slightly below at $1.12. Still, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator remains above the signal line. At the same time, the green histogram bars expand, hinting at potential stability ahead of a breakout toward the weekly open at $1.48. Other key levels of interest to traders include Sunday’s high at $1.67 and the 50-day EMA at $1.69, which, if reclaimed, could mark a possibly bullish shift. #Kriptocutrader #quickfarm #Robert #NOTCOİN #BinanceHerYerde .
Mentioning 'bitcoin' or crypto on AI agent OpenClaw's Discord will get you banned
The project's creator nearly deleted the viral AI agent after crypto scammers hijacked his accounts, launched a fake token that hit $16 million, and harassed him for weeks. A user who recently mentioned bitcoin in passing — in the context of using block height as a clock for a multi-agent benchmark, not promoting a token — was blocked immediately. The rule comes after what happened in late January, when crypto nearly destroyed the project from the inside. Steinberger was clear about the ban in a follow-up reply to the X post. The trouble started after AI powerhouse Anthropic sent Steinberger a trademark notice over the project's original name, Clawdbot, which the AI company argued was too close to Anthropic's own "Claude." Steinberger agreed to rebrand. But in the brief seconds between releasing his old GitHub and X handles and securing the new ones, scammers seized both accounts and began promoting a fake token called $CLAWD on Solana. That token hit $16 million in market capitalization within hours. When Steinberger publicly denied any involvement, it crashed over 90%, wiping out late buyers. Early snipers walked away with profits, and Steinberger was left fielding harassment from traders who blamed him for not endorsing the token. To all crypto folks: please stop pinging me, stop harassing me," he wrote on X at the time. "I will never do a coin. Any project that lists me as coin owner is a SCAM." Security researchers at blockchain firm SlowMist and independent auditors found hundreds of OpenClaw instances exposed to the public internet with no authentication, partly because the tool's localhost trust model breaks when run behind a reverse proxy. Separately, a researcher found 386 malicious "skills" — add-on scripts for OpenClaw agents — published on the project's skill repository, many targeting crypto traders specifically. Steinberger has since joined OpenAI to lead its personal agents division, with OpenClaw moving to an independent open-source foundation. The project is thriving. But the crypto ban on Discord stays, leaving a scar from a weeks-long episode that showed how fast speculative token culture can engulf a legitimate software project and nearly bury it. #KEEP_SUPPORT #VETUSDT #BinanceHerYerde #satoshiNakamato #LISTAAirdrop
XRP falls 4% as network sees biggest realized loss spike since 2022
Past capitulation waves have preceded sharp recoveries, but this time price is still fighting technical resistance even as ledger activity surges. Realized losses measure actual losses, not paper drawdowns. They spike when holders capitulate, choosing to lock in losses rather than wait for a rebound. Unlike unrealized losses, which can vanish if price recovers, realized losses represent final decisions. For realized losses to surge into the billions, there must be aggressive selling pressure, but there must also be buyers willing to take the other side. Large capitulation events often coincide with liquidity stepping in at lower levels. Historically, these moments tend to cluster near market bottoms because much of the weaker positioning gets cleared out in one move. That absorption piece matters. However, context is key. The 2022 spike came after a prolonged drawdown and broader crypto deleveraging. Today’s environment includes macro uncertainty, shifting regulatory narratives and still-elevated volatility across majors. A realized loss spike increases the probability that sellers are exhausted, but it does not eliminate macro headwinds. When weak hands are flushed, the composition of holders shifts. The coins that change hands during capitulation typically move from short-term, emotionally driven traders to longer-term buyers with stronger conviction or better cost bases. That redistribution can create a more stable foundation for price. Another variable to watch is follow-through. In prior cycles, sustained recoveries required not just a single capitulation print but stabilization in spot demand and declining sell pressure in the weeks that followed. If realized losses remain elevated or quickly re-accelerate, that would suggest distribution is not finished. For now, the data points to emotional extremes. Historically, that has been fertile ground for rebounds. Whether it becomes a durable trend shift depends on what happens after the panic subsides. #cryptouniverseofficial #Kriptocutrader #Binance #YapayzekaAI #satoshiNakamato
Trump sagt, er werde seine neuen globalen Zölle auf 15 % erhöhen
Der US-Präsident Donald Trump hat gesagt, dass er globale Zölle von 15 % erheben wird, da er weiterhin gegen ein Urteil des Obersten Gerichtshofs wetterte, das seine vorherigen Einfuhrsteuern abgeschafft hat. Trump sagte am Freitag, dass er die vom Gericht abgeschafften Zölle durch einen 10%igen Aufschlag auf alle Waren ersetzen würde, die in die USA kommen. Aber am Samstag kündigte er auf Truth Social an, dass dies auf das maximal erlaubte gemäß einem nie verwendeten Handelsgesetz erhöht werden würde. Dieses Gesetz erlaubt es, dass diese neuen Zölle etwa fünf Monate lang in Kraft bleiben, bevor die Regierung die Genehmigung des Kongresses einholen muss.
Kommentare des US-Botschafters zu Israel von arabischen und muslimischen Nationen verurteilt
Arabische und muslimische Regierungen haben Äußerungen des US-Botschafters in Israel, Mike Huckabee, verurteilt, der andeutete, dass Israel berechtigt wäre, ein weites Gebiet des Nahen Ostens aus biblischen Gründen zu übernehmen. In einem Interview mit dem konservativen US-Kommentator Tucker Carlson wurde Huckabee gefragt, ob Israel ein Recht auf ein Gebiet habe, das der Gastgeber laut der Bibel "im Wesentlichen den gesamten Nahen Osten" umfasst. Der Botschafter sagte: "Es wäre in Ordnung, wenn es alles nehmen würde." Aber er fügte hinzu, dass Israel nicht darauf abziele, sondern vielmehr "darum bittet, zumindest das Land zu nehmen, das sie jetzt besetzen" und ihr Volk zu schützen.
Canada looks to trade talks after US Supreme Court tosses Trump's tariffs
Celebrations in Canada over the decision by the US Supreme Court to strike down President Donald Trump's global tariffs were both brief and muted. The high court's decision, which included the "fentanyl" tariffs Trump imposed on Canada, China and Mexico, reinforced Canada's position that the levies were "unjustified", US-Canada Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc said on X. But LeBlanc noted the challenges ahead in Ottawa. There is the "critical work" to do in dealing with impacts from levies on steel, aluminium and automobiles, which Trump said will remain. There is also the upcoming review of the Canada-US-Mexico trade deal, the USMCA, which covers a market of more than 500 million people. The actual impact of the Supreme Court decision on Canadian tariffs is limited. Last year, the Trump administration imposed tariffs on Canada and Mexico, with Canada facing 25%, later raised to 35%, with the president arguing both countries must do more to stop migrants and the illegal drug fentanyl reaching the US. But the vast majority of trade, some 85%, under these "fentanyl" tariffs were already levy-free under a USMCA exemption. LeBlanc's office declined to comment on Trump's proclamation imposing a 10% global tariff to replace the duties imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, which the Supreme Court struck down. The White House clarified the USMCA exemption will continue under the new 10% tariff. On Saturday, Trump announced in a Truth Social post that he would be raising the new 10% tariff to 15%. Beyond the remaining US tariffs on sectors like steel and automobiles, the biggest issue for Canada on its US trade agenda is the USMCA review. This summer, all three partners must decide whether to extend the deal, which was negotiated during Trump's first term. A North American free trade deal has been in place in some form since the early 1990s, and has led to deeply integrated economies. In Mexico this week, LeBlanc told reporters that both countries "remain absolutely committed to a trilateral trade agreement". The Trump administration has been less enthusiastic about saying they want the USMCA renewed, and officials have suggested Washington would prefer separate bilateral deals with Canada and Mexico. He also said he will meet US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in the coming weeks to discuss the review talks, which are expected to kick into high gear ahead of a 1 July deadline. It would be the first sign of formal trade discussions between the US and Canada after talks were halted last October by Trump, who was upset over an anti-tariffs advert sponsored by Canada's province of Ontario that aired on US networks - including during the World Series. Greer, in an interview on Fox Business earlier this week, said it has been "more challenging" negotiating with Canada than with Mexico. "They continue to have certain barriers. They refuse to sell US wine and spirits on their shelves.," he said. "There are a variety of issues that they have not addressed and they aren't addressing, and this makes it a big challenge and an obstacle for starting real negotiations with them." Greer has previously named rules on dairy imports and a Canadian law called the Online Streaming Act, which requires American media companies like Netflix and Spotify to pay to support Canadian content, as other trade irritants. As the rocky negotiations continue, Canada has sought to build trade ties outside the US, which currently buys about 75% of its exports, with a goal of doubling non-US exports by 2035. Many Canadian business groups on Friday said that uncertainty remains. Dennis Darby, CEO of Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters, said businesses are ultimately looking for a successful renewal of the USCMA that "puts an end to recurring trade disruptions". Predictable, rules-based trade is essential for manufacturers on both sides of the border," he said. #XAI #DelistingAlert #Notcoin #JBVIP #KEEP_SUPPORT
Vitalik Buterin von Ethereum schlägt KI-'Verwalter' vor, um die DAO-Governance neu zu erfinden
Das System würde Zero-Knowledge-Beweise und sichere Umgebungen (MPC/TEEs) verwenden, um die Identität der Wähler und sensible Daten zu schützen und gleichzeitig Zwang und Bestechung zu verhindern. Der Ethereum-Mitgründer Vitalik Buterin schlug eine technische Überholung der dezentralen autonomen Organisationen (DAOs) vor und forderte den Einsatz persönlicher künstlicher Intelligenz-Agenten, um privat im Namen von Nutzern abzustimmen und die digitale Governance zu skalieren. Der Plan, der einen Monat nach Buterins Kritik an DAOs wegen geringer Teilnahme und Machtkonzentration auf der Social-Media-Plattform X veröffentlicht wurde, zielt darauf ab, die Nutzer davon abzubringen, ihre Stimmen großen Token-Inhabern zu delegieren.
Der Bitcoin-Preis sinkt, nachdem Trump den weltweiten Zoll von 10% auf 15% erhöht, trotz der Entscheidung des Obersten Gerichtshofs.
Der U.S. Präsident Donald Trump kündigte einen weltweiten Zoll von 15% auf importierte Waren an, trotz einer früheren Entscheidung des Obersten Gerichtshofs, die frühere Handelsmaßnahmen für ungültig erklärte. In den nächsten wenigen Monaten wird die Trump-Administration die neuen und rechtlich zulässigen Zölle festlegen und bekanntgeben”, fügte der Präsident hinzu. Der Preis von Bitcoin BTC $68.234,76 fiel am Samstag leicht, nachdem U.S. Präsident Donald Trump eine zusätzliche Erhöhung der globalen Zölle angekündigt hatte, trotz einer Entscheidung des U.S. Obersten Gerichtshofs, die frühere Handelsmaßnahmen unter dem International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEP) für ungültig erklärte.
Goldman Sachs, Franklin Templeton und Nicki Minaj: Inside Trump’s surrealem Mar-a-Lago Krypto-Gipfel
Krypto, Immobilien und Politik kollidierten im Mar-a-Lago-Club von Trump, während Insider über Tokenisierung und Regulierung diskutierten. Die Gespräche schwankten zwischen der Zukunft der Finanzen und wie sie das beheben könnte, was in der Vergangenheit kaputt gegangen ist – ehrgeizige Visionen von tokenisierten Vermögenswerten, regulatorischen Überholungen und neu gestalteten Kapitalmärkten. Doch ebenso leicht drehte sich das Gespräch um das bevorstehende FIFA-Weltmeisterschaftsturnier und Press-on-Nägel, courtesy von ein paar unerwarteten Namen, die wahrscheinlich dort nichts zu suchen hatten, und dennoch irgendwie die ganze Sache noch surrealer machten.

Die Private-Equity-Firma Blue Owl Capital (OWL) fiel diese Woche um fast 15%, da sie gezwungen war, Vermögenswerte im Wert von 1,4 Milliarden Dollar zu liquidieren, um Investoren zu bezahlen, die aus einem ihrer privaten Kreditfonds aussteigen wollten. Es weckte schmerzhafte Erinnerungen bei denen, die die globale Finanzkrise von 2008 (GFC) durchlitten haben. Im August 2007 brachen zwei Hedgefonds von Bear Stearns zusammen, nachdem sie hohe Verluste bei hypothekenbesicherten Wertpapieren erlitten hatten, während BNP Paribas die Abhebungen in drei Fonds einfrierte und dies mit der Unfähigkeit begründete, US-Hypothekenvermögen zu bewerten. Die Kreditmärkte kamen zum Stillstand, die Liquidität verdampfte, und was wie ein isolierter Vorfall schien, entwickelte sich zur globalen Finanzkrise.
Spezialisierte KI erkennt 92% der realen DeFi-Ausnutzungen
Neue Forschungen behaupten, dass spezialisierte KI allgemeine Modelle bei der Erkennung ausgenutzter DeFi-Sicherheitsanfälligkeiten drastisch übertrifft. Beide Systeme liefen auf demselben Frontier-Modell. Der Unterschied, laut dem Bericht, war die Anwendungsschicht: domänenspezifische Methodologie, strukturierte Überprüfungsphasen und auf das Modell aufbauende, DeFi-fokussierte Sicherheitsheuristiken. Die Ergebnisse kommen inmitten wachsender Bedenken, dass KI die Krypto-Kriminalität beschleunigt. Getrennte Forschungen von Anthropic und OpenAI haben gezeigt, dass KI-Agenten jetzt End-to-End-Angriffe auf die meisten bekannten anfälligen Smart Contracts ausführen können, wobei die Ausnutzungsfähigkeit Berichten zufolge etwa alle 1,3 Monate sich verdoppelt. Die durchschnittlichen Kosten für einen KI-gestützten Ausnutzungsversuch liegen bei etwa $1.22 pro Vertrag, was die Barrieren für großflächiges Scannen erheblich senkt.
Kleinere Anleger kaufen Bitcoin. Damit eine Rallye erfolgreich ist, müssen die Wale mitmachen.
Kleine Geldbörsen haben ihre BTC-Bestände seit dem Allzeithoch im Oktober um 2,5 % erhöht, während große Inhaber um 0,8 % reduziert haben, zeigt die Santiment-Daten. Das Interessante ist eine sich entwickelnde Spaltung im Besitz von Münzen, die prägen könnte, was als Nächstes passiert. Daten von Santiment zeigen, dass die Anzahl der Geldbörsen, die weniger als 0,1 BTC halten, ein Niveau, das typischerweise mit Privatanlegern verbunden ist, seit der größte Kryptowährung, die im Oktober ein Rekordhoch erreichte, um 2,5 % gestiegen ist. Das Wachstum hat den sogenannten Anteil der Shrimps am Angebot auf den höchsten Stand seit Mitte 2024 gedrängt.
Die Tür öffnen: SEC gibt Hinweise zu den Kapitalanforderungen von Brokern für Stablecoins
Die neue Anleitung besagt, dass „Mitarbeiter nichts dagegen hätten, wenn ein Broker-Dealer einen Abschlag von 2 % auf proprietäre Positionen anwenden würde.“ In einer Erklärung am Donnerstag, die auf die Anleitung reagierte, sagte Kommissarin Hester Peirce, dass die Verwendung von Stablecoins es Brokern ermöglichen könnte, mehr zu tun. Die neue FAQ markiert den neuesten Schritt der SEC, um der digitalen Vermögensindustrie gegenüber freundlicher zu sein. Die U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission hat neue Richtlinien eingeführt, die es Broker-Dealern erlauben, einen "2% Abschlag" auf proprietäre Positionen in bestimmten Stablecoins anzuwenden – ein Schritt, den einige Krypto-Interessengruppen als Beitrag zur Annäherung digitaler Vermögenswerte an die traditionelle Finanzwelt ansehen.
