    Crypto exchanges can now more easily freeze ‘risky’ transactions

    DARPA-backed blockchain analytics firm CipherTrace today unveiled “predictive capabilities” for its crypto tracing software—a move designed to better help cryptocurrency exchanges and similar businesses flag and freeze transactions that may be linked to criminal behavior. The new tools, which include real-time analytics and predictive risk scoring, are now available for existing customers and will be offered to new clients at the end of July, according to the firm. The launch comes at an opport...

    Tezos jumps 15% to hit highest price since early June

    Tezos is on a tear. While XTZ may have dropped to 13th on the crypto rankings by market cap, at this rate, it might soon flip EOS to regain that 12th spot. Tezos jumped by more than 15% today and was briefly trading above $3 per coin for the first time since early June. XTZ has since cooled off a bit and is trading for right around $2.95—still a 12% increase on the day. Prior, the last time Tezos price spiked this impressively was in late April, when the price of XTZ went from $2.14 to $2.86....

    CFTC wants comprehensive regulation of crypto within 4 years

    The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) wants to get a handle on crypto assets by 2024. The CFTC stated its goal to “develop a holistic framework to promote responsible innovation in digital assets” in a finalized version of its strategic plan for 2020-2024. The plan was first approved in May and open for a 30-day commentary period in June, before being published yesterday. Broken into five parts, the CFTC’s report details its plans to improve the “resilience and integrity” of America’s...

    Ripple (XRP) trading at highest price in nearly a month

    Ripple (XRP) is currently riding its biggest price surge in nearly a month. XRP is now back to trading above $0.20 per coin for the first time since June 11. Since then, XRP bears had been in control, driving the price of the coin down to as low as $0.17 by June 28. This despite expansion efforts from Ripple, specifically in Brazil and throughout Latin America, which in the past have helped boost confidence in XRP. Ripple’s head of global banking Marjan Delatinne explained in an interview with...

    Chainlink price pumps 20% to reach new all-time high

    Chainlink (LINK) is not yet a top 10 cryptocurrency by market cap, but at this rate, it soon might. Chainlink today shot up by close to 20% in price and is currently trading for $5.80, eclipsing its previous all-time high of just under $5 that it hit in March of this year. LINK is still a relatively new coin, having launched in an ICO in September 2017, which raised more than $30 million. Chainlink sold for a mere $0.09 during its pre-sale, and started off its few months trading at around $0.20...

    Ethereum surges to highest price in nearly two weeks

    Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap and primary competitor to Bitcoin, has surged in price by nearly 7% since this morning. ETH is now trading right around $240. This marks the highest price for Ethereum in nearly two weeks. The last time ETH was trading beyond the $240 price point was June 24. Since then, ETH bears have largely been behind the wheel, driving the cryptocurrency down to a monthly low of $220 last week. Ethereum has since recovered $20 to its price since the...

    Bitcoin threatens to break below $9K as stocks ride high

    It’s been a rough day for crypto, with many of the industry’s leading assets in the red, including Bitcoin. The market leader is down nearly 2% and trading at just over $9,100. Bitcoin even briefly dipped below $9,000 today, testing resistance levels. The same is true of Ethereum and XRP, which are each down about 2% on the day. And prices aren’t the only things that are down today. While the crypto industry is no stranger to scams, it’s been a particularly bad day for exploits. Cybersecurity f...

    Cardano price surges 12% on Shelley upgrade rollout

    Cardano (ADA), the eighth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, has surged in price today by nearly 12%. ADA is now trading for roughly $0.0930. This marks the tallest peak that the cryptocurrency has reached in one year. At the end of June last year, ADA was trading right at the $0.90 mark, meaning it has taken roughly 12 months for ADA to regain the losses it has suffered since then. By February 2019, Cardano was trading for as little as $0.071 per coin. In March of this year, following the...

    Compound’s COMP DeFi token sinks 40% in one week

    Compound’s COMP token has only been trading for about two weeks, and it’s already just outside the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap. But anyone joining the DeFi party now may have missed out on the top. Today, COMP is down by around 10%—and that’s during a trading day when most other coins saw marginal gains. Compound’s governance token is now trading for around $235, a drop of nearly 40% from its all-time high of $382 last week. COMP initially went live for trading on June 15, after users...

    Stock, crypto markets slide following surge in COVID-19 cases

    It’s been a rough day for both crypto and stocks alike, as the US economy reels from a recent uptick in COVID-19 cases. Most coins today are in the red, as the combined market capitalization for cryptocurrencies today sank by around $11 billion. Bitcoin, for example, has fallen by nearly 4% in price, currently trading for around $9,200 per coin, erasing the gains from earlier in the week (even if the asset is still outperforming gold this year.) Ethereum, meanwhile, has likewise dropped by 4%, p...

    Chainlink (LINK), the 13th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is today’s biggest winner within the top 20 coins, having shot up in price by more than 11% since this morning. The month of June has been shaky for Chainlink in terms of price. On June 12, the price of LINK sank (right along with the rest of the market when Bitcoin crashed) by around 10%, reaching a monthly low of about $3.90 per coin. Since then, however, LINK has been on a tear, with today’s high of $4.80 per coin nearly matchi...

    Buy Bitcoin with cash at 7-Eleven, CVS with this new app

    Bitcoin ATM company LibertyX is expanding its horizons on its mission to make Bitcoin available “on every block” in America. The company announced today that it’s now making it possible for its customers to buy Bitcoin with cash at 20,000 retail locations across the United States in a deal struck with 7-Eleven, CVS, and Rite Aid stores. Rather than dealing with ATMs though, LibertyX is making it so that all prospective BTC buyers need to do is download their iOS or Android app, which is then sca...

    Cardano price gets a boost as Shelley upgrade inches closer

    Cardano (ADA), the tenth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is one of today’s biggest gainers, having shot up by close to 10% since yesterday morning. The cryptocurrency most recently began gaining traction late last month, shooting up from $0.55 to $0.65 on May 29 after having spent the previous 30 days trapped in the low $0.50 range.

    Bitcoin price crashes, sheds nearly $1,000 within hours

    The bullish wave that Bitcoin has been riding these past few days has come crashing down. The price of Bitcoin today dropped by nearly 7% within hours. Despite briefly touching the key resistance level of $10,000 per coin yesterday, the cryptocurrency spent most of the day trading just below that mark. Bitcoin then shed close to $1,000 today, dropping all the way down to $9,000, before recovering somewhat and settling near $9,300. It’s the sort of volatility that Bitcoin traders are no doubt ac...

    Bitcoin remains closely correlated with gold, says CoinMetrics

    There has been wide speculation about the alleged correlation between Bitcoin and the stock market, but, according to new data, it’s Bitcoin and gold that have been moving in tandem with each other. In its latest report, Coin Metrics shows that the correlation between gold and the world’s number one digital currency by market cap is quite high and has been so for the past several months. As seen in the chart below, during the COVID-19 market selloff, Bitcoin lost more than half its value and fel...
