    Robinhood Sweetens Gold Membership as Bernstein Sets $105 Price Target

    USDC Sets All-Time High Market Cap Above $60 Billion as Adoption Surges

    Circle USDC stablecoin market cap has hit a new all-time high, surpassing $60 billion for the first time. Artemis Analytics data shows USDC now has a 25.4% share of the stablecoin market, compared with 20.7% three months ago. But the digital dollar, which is issued by Circle, remains streets behind Tether. The total value of USDT currently stands at $144 billion—representing about 63% of this still-nascent sector. All of this comes against a backdrop of growing demand for stablecoins, not to men...

    Police Arrest Four Teens Over Amouranth Home Invasion, Attempted Bitcoin Theft

    Four teenagers have been charged after an OnlyFans streamer was ordered to hand over her crypto at gunpoint. Kaitlyn Siragusa, a popular influencer also known as Amouranth, was targeted at her home in Texas earlier this month. Three armed assailants had broken into her bedroom, hit her repeatedly with a pistol, and ordered her to transfer digital assets.

    Digital Euro Awareness Has Risen, But Interest in Using One Has Not: ECB

    New research from the European Central Bank suggests that public awareness about plans for a digital euro has increased substantially—but this hasn't been matched by a rise in the number of consumers interested in using it. About 19,000 households across 11 EU countries took part in the study, which exposed one of the biggest roadblocks to adoption: Many of those polled are perfectly happy with the payment methods they already use. Participants shown a video explaining the key benefits of this c...

    Puerto Rico Resident Defies Bitcoin Seizure Order, Faces $10,000 a Day Fine

    A man who has refused to hand over almost 120 Bitcoin, currently worth $9.7 million, to the U.S. government has been found in contempt of court. The judge has warned he will be fined $10,000 a day until the funds are transferred. Court filings accuse Juan Carlos Reynoso of "flagrantly violating" a warrant issued by a judge in Puerto Rico, which gave him 24 hours to send the $9.7 million worth of Bitcoin to a government-controlled address. He allegedly moved the funds to five separate crypto wall...

    Singapore Trade Minister: 'Consumers Should Stay Clear of Cryptocurrencies'

    Singapore Trade Minister Alvin Tan said the public should "stay clear" of cryptocurrencies altogether, because there are no protections in place if they lose money. Tan was responding to having been asked why the government has tightened regulations on exchanges—and barred investors from purchasing digital assets using their credit cards. His warning arrives just as Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has had to issue warnings that deepfakes of his image are being used to promote crypto scams...

    Crypto scammers today impersonated a Hong Kong official on X, formerly Twitter, and pumped and dumped a fraudulent meme coin that they pushed as an "official" Hong Kong token called "KONG." An account on X masquerading as Chief Executive John Lee claimed that the "National Hong Kong Coin" was going to make its debut on Solana.

    Bybit CEO: This Is 'Critical' Week to Freeze Funds From $1.4 Billion Hack

    The CEO of Bybit has warned that the exchange is in a race against time to recover the $1.4 billion in crypto stolen by North Korean hackers. In an update on X, formerly Twitter, Ben Zhou revealed that 20% of the Ethereum taken in last month's audacious attack has already "gone dark." About 77% of the illicit funds remain traceable, meaning just 3% has been successfully frozen. All of this comes as data from Nansen reveals that those responsible have "officially emptied their wallet," going from...

While much attention has been paid to crypto hacks of late, with more than $1.4 billion recently stolen from crypto exchange Bybit, Buterin argued that not enough attention is paid to helping those whose digital assets have become inaccessible.

    Crypto-Stealing Malware Spread Through Fake GitHub Repositories, Kaspersky Warns

    Hackers are targeting software developers by spreading malware through fake GitHub repositories, according to new research. A lot of code on the internet is open source, meaning anyone can use it. But Kaspersky's Securelist says there's been an uptick in cybercriminals uploading fake projects in an attempt to deceive victims. It warns the threat actors involved "went to great lengths to make the repositories appear legitimate to potential targets." In one case, a bogus project for a Telegram bot...

    Bitcoin ETFs Have Shed $929 Million So Far in February

    Outflows from exchange-traded funds tracking Bitcoin's spot price have accelerated as pangs of pessimism hit the crypto market. Data from UK-based asset manager Farside Investors shows that outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs topped $928.9 million over the past three weeks, since the first trading day in February. This has coincided with Bitcoin trading within an exceedingly tight range of between $94,000 and $98,000 for most of February. Speaking at the Consensus 2025 conference in Hong Kong last w...

    A woman who defrauded Bybit out of more than $4 million in crypto, and spent the ill-gotten gains on luxury items, has been jailed for almost 10 years. Ho Kai Xin, who's from Singapore, worked for a company called Wechain Fintech, which handled payroll processing on behalf of the crypto exchange. The 32-year-old manipulated Excel spreadsheets to show USDT payments were due to digital wallets she controlled, when no money was owed.

He argued that it would prove "unsustainable" to have a whole financial system built using blockchains because this would require too much computing power—and "all we know about monetary theory" suggests cryptocurrencies shouldn't survive.
