    Crypto asset manager Bitwise debuted an exchange-traded fund on Thursday that offers exposure to cryptocurrency and precious metals, positioning the product as a way for investors to capitalize on the debasement of fiat currencies, including the U.S. dollar. The Bitwise Proficio Currency Debasement ETF, which trades on the NYSE under the ticker symbol BPRO, is issued in partnership with Proficio Capital Partners, a Boston-based investment advisory firm that manages around $5 billion in assets, a...

    Bitcoin, Ethereum ETFs Shed $1 Billion Amid Trump Waffling on Greenland and Tariffs

    Investors pulled nearly $1 billion from exchange-traded funds tracking the spot price of Bitcoin and Ethereum on Wednesday, seeking refuge from cryptocurrency exposure as U.S. President Donald Trump struck a new chord in his approach to acquiring Greenland. The president said on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday afternoon that he had “a framework of a deal” regarding the Danish territory, as well as the Arctic region, following talks with NATO secretary Mark Rutte. Along those lines, Trump...

    BlackRock: Ethereum Is Anchoring Wall Street's Tokenization Race

    BlackRock recognized Ethereum’s dominance in tokenization on Wednesday, dedicating a portion of its 2026 thematic outlook to the network’s potential grip on Wall Street. Pondering whether Ethereum could become the “toll road” to blockchain-based markets, the report stated that Ethereum “could be poised to benefit” from a shift spurring moves across legacy financial institutions, from DTCC to the New York Stock Exchange. Ethereum currently underpins 65% of tokenized assets, according to the repor...

    Why a $778 Billion Mortgage Lender Is Taking Bitcoin and Ethereum Seriously Now

    Younger Americans may find it increasingly difficult to afford a home, but Newrez, a national wholesale mortgage lender, thinks Bitcoin and Ethereum could change that. The firm—which serviced a $778.3 billion portfolio of 3.7 million loans, as of last year—recently signaled that it would begin assessing both cryptocurrencies for mortgage qualification. Last week, it billed itself as the first major provider of mortgages in the U.S. to do so. That means the company intends to view Bitcoin and Eth...

    Buy the Bitcoin Dip? Not Until Short-Term Holders Show Gains, Says Compass Point

    Betting on Bitcoin before it reclaims the $98,000 mark might not be the best idea, following the asset’s recent downturn, according to analysts at investment bank Compass Point. That’s the current average cost for short-term holders, who have held the digital asset for less than 155 days—and are typically sensitive to price swings—they wrote in a Wednesday note. Last week, the price of Bitcoin climbed to a two-month high of $97,500, according to CoinGecko. However, it failed to cross the thresho...

    Bitcoin’s price may be falling as markets digest U.S. President Donald Trump’s renewed push for Greenland, but Strategy just notched one of its largest purchases within the past year. Although the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin has stepped up to the plate in recent weeks, its recent purchase of 22,300 Bitcoin for $2.1 billion represents its biggest swing in more than nine months, as the asset’s price wavers around the $90,000 mark, according to CoinGecko.

    DTCC 'Not Building Walled Gardens' for Tokenization, Says Digital Assets Head

    The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s vision for tokenized securities isn’t tethered to any single network, even if it’s admittedly rooted in the past. The firm that processes roughly $10 trillion of securities transactions every day is keeping an open mind as it fleshes out its tokenized securities offering, but risk and data standards remain paramount, according to Global Head of DTCC Digital Assets Nadine Chakar.
