Uniswap's Best Month Came From Stocks, Not Crypto

Uniswap pulled roughly $14.81 million in September protocol revenue, and about 53% of it came from Robinhood Chain. Tokenized equities are quietly rewriting how DEXs make money, and the concentration risk is real.

Cboe Filed Rules for Trading Coinbase Volume and MARA's Bitcoin Output. The Settlement Fine Print Is the Real Story

Cboe's new rulebook covers event contracts on Coinbase trading volume and MARA's monthly Bitcoin production, including procedures for late or missing figures. The contracts themselves are a sideshow. The settlement framework is what turns a company press release into a priceable instrument, and that's the part worth paying attention to.

Bitcoin Sits at $81,600 and the Weekly Close Is the Only Thing That Matters

Bitcoin is parked near $81,600 on Sunday, October 18, with short-term moving averages favoring sellers and longer-term averages still on the buyers' side. RSI at 46 and resistance at $82,500 leave the weekly close needing a push that hasn't shown up yet. The neutral chart is hiding a nervous market.

Saylor Just Admitted Wall Street Wants Cash, Not Just Bitcoin

Michael Saylor told an investor day crowd that Strategy's 12% preferred stock only held its $100 par after he put a dollar reserve behind it. Credit buyers wanted cash, not a claim on BTC. That admission says more about digital credit pricing than any pitch deck.

Binance Kills Its Mining Pool: Miners Have Until 07:00 UTC on November 10 to Move

Binance is shutting down its mining pool and four related products on November 10, 2026. That means Pool Savings, Cloud Mining, the Transaction Accelerator, and the pool APIs all go dark at 07:00 UTC. If your rigs point at Binance endpoints, you're on the clock.

BitTorrent's First BTT Burn Is the Real Story, Not the Rebrand

BitTorrent has completed the first full burn of BTT tokens repurchased with revenue from its decentralized services, pairing the move with a rebrand toward Web3 and AI infrastructure. The buyback mechanism is the concrete part. The AI pitch still needs proof.

October 18 Came and Went. Trump's Russia Waiver Has No Expiry Date, and Bitcoin Is Reading It Wrong

The administration waived fresh Russia tariffs as the October 18 oil deadline expired, and left the waiver with no fixed end date. Most crypto traders are asking the wrong question. Bitcoin's next move hinges on inflation and financing conditions, not on geopolitics.

XRP ETFs Broke a 13-Week Streak on a $1.84 Million Outflow. That's the Whole Story.

XRP ETFs Broke a 13-Week Streak on a $1.84 Million Outflow. That's the Whole Story.

US spot XRP ETFs just posted their first negative week since July, but the $1.84 million that came out is noise against $1.8 billion in. The real signal isn't the streak ending, it's how concentrated the selling was, and what a second red week would actually prove.

Bitcoin's $30,000 Floor Is Probably Real, Just Not for the Reason Anyone's Saying

CryptoQuant's CEO thinks Bitcoin holds near $30K even if ETFs and corporate treasuries fully unwind. The stress test is useful, the mechanism is wrong, and the real systemic risk sits in a place nobody's modeling: debt-financed treasury companies. Here's the math that actually matters.

BitTorrent Burns Its First Revenue-Funded BTT Batch, but Won't Say How Much

BitTorrent has burned the first round of BTT it repurchased using revenue from its decentralized services, tying token supply to actual operating income rather than treasury reserves. That's the right funding model. The disclosure around it, though, is thin enough to be a problem.

Bitcoin futures open interest fell just 0.69% to $7.68 billion on Saturday while funding stayed positive at 0.0035%. Solana's open interest dropped roughly six times harder. The divergence tells you more about where risk actually came off than any headline number does.

US spot Ether ETFs lost $320.1 million in the week ending October 16, worse than Bitcoin's $228.4 million in outflows. BlackRock's ETHA accounted for nearly all of it, and the concentration is the real story.

Cysic's Bridge Minted 10M CYS From Nothing. The Mainnet Was Never the Point.

Cysic halted its bridge after an unauthorized mint of 10 million CYS, and the team was quick to say the mainnet is fine. But bridges are where supply integrity lives, and a phantom mint is a supply problem no amount of mainnet uptime fixes. Here's the sequence, the damage, and what to watch next.

Police in Bangkok arrested a Chinese national accused of running crypto and foreign-currency exchanges for crime groups across more than 133 accounts. The operation moved $75 million. And it's a reminder that the laundering problem isn't crypto, it's the people using it.

Michael Burry's Supervolcano Isn't a Crash Call. It's a Duration Call.

Michael Burry says the next bear market could last a long time, and a century of inflation-adjusted S&P 500 data backs the setup. The real risk in thinning breadth isn't the eruption. It's how long the ash stays in the air.

Tether Just Backed an AI Agent Startup. The $9 Million Number Is Louder Than It Looks

Tether came in as strategic investor on AIsa's seed extension, pushing total funding past $9 million. That's pocket change for a company that cleared $13 billion in profit last year. Which is exactly why it matters: Tether is buying a seat at the table for machine-to-machine payments, and it's doing it before anyone else shows up.

Vitalik Built a 'Paranoid Mode' for His AI Agent. Here's What It Still Leaks

Ethereum's co-founder rolled out a privacy layer for his personal AI agent on October 16, wrapping prompts in Tor, zero-knowledge payments, and local rewriting. He's upfront that it's slow and incomplete. The targeting is right, even if the tool isn't ready for anyone else.
