Bitcoin News

Bitcoin (BTC) is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency, originally described in a 2008 paper by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. Launched in January 2009, it was the world’s first cryptocurrency, and remains the most popular, with the highest market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin was built on several key innovations. Firstly, Nakamoto guaranteed that Bitcoin transactions were immutable, by recording all transactions on a distributed ledger known as a blockchain. Secondly, he ensured Bitcoin’s scarcity by capping the total number of Bitcoin in existence at 21 million. Finally, the community was incentivized to verify transactions by receiving rewards in the form of “mined” Bitcoin for checking the accuracy of the blockchain.

    Trump Ally Compares Crypto Industry Writing Its Own Rules to Spilled 'Urine Sample'

John Kennedy (R-LA) asked a panel of crypto leaders including Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse. “I've… heard some of you say that digital assets represent the next generation of the internet,”...

    Crypto Exchange GMX Drained of Bitcoin, Ethereum in $40 Million Exploit

    GMX, a cross-chain decentralized exchange specializing in perpetual futures trading, warned on Wednesday that an initial version of its platform was exploited.

    Why Are Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana Prices Still Rangebound? Experts Weigh In

    Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana edged up on Wednesday, largely shaking off a jolt from the U.S. reentering negotiations with several of its foreign trading partners. But despite the tepidly good news, analysts say the assets remain rangebound. Bitcoin, for instance, has largely traded between $107,000 and $110,000 over the last several weeks, up a modest 1.5% over the last 30 days, but still within striking distance of its all-time high. Ethereum has traded sideways over the last month at aro...

    ARK Flags Bearish Bitcoin Signal Despite BTC Price Stability

    Bitcoin's on-chain momentum is looking bearish—and could turn negative unless prices continue to rise, according to an ARK Invest report. Capital flows decreased during the second quarter, with the number of new buyers entering the market continuing to decline. ARK Invest analysts wrote that data suggests Bitcoin's market-value-to-realized-value, or MVRV ratio, is currently near the two-year moving average. That’s a stark contrast to the positive momentum that has dominated 2024 and much of 2025...

    Hackers Target Bitcoin Wallet Holding Billions Swiped From Mt. Gox

    Hackers appear to be targeting an old Bitcoin address holding over $8 billion in digital coins stolen from collapsed crypto exchange, Mt. Gox. As first flagged by BitMEX Research, would-be attackers sent the address—1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF—a transaction using OP_RETURN.  OP_RETURN—which has been controversial among some users—is a way of storing information on Bitcoin's blockchain. In this case, the transaction sent to the wallet contains text displaying a website address, in an appar...

    Bitcoin Volatility Hovers Near Historical Low, but 'Beware the Quiet,' Analysts Warn

    Bitcoin price volatility has sunk to historical lows with its price hovering about 2% off its all-time high, but QCP Capital analysts are warning investors to "beware the quiet." "Volatility may be on summer break, but Q3 and Q4 could still deliver fireworks," the analysts wrote in a recent blog post.
