Bitcoin-specific news — protocol activity, scaling layers, and BTC-centric applications.
A failed procedural vote would leave U.S. firms operating under the current SEC and CFTC framework, potentially deferring product launches and tokenization into 2027 and 2028.
Spending 2.6x more on its own preferred shares than on BTC since late July reframes Strategy as much a capital-return story as a treasury accumulator, with roughly half of the new $2B authorization…
Three macro wires tightened around BTC at once: a Tuesday Senate procedural vote requiring 60 votes, oil back near $103, and a quarter-point Fed hike baked in against a 10-year yield near 5%.
With hedge-fund leverage at or near all-time highs, a Fed policy surprise in September could force cash-raising across leveraged portfolios, putting Bitcoin in the crossfire of collateral calls.
Senate Republicans revised the Clarity Act to include a new ethics proposal, stablecoin yield changes, and BRCA updates, landing just as prediction markets price a near-certain Fed rate hike.
Zero Bitcoin acquired, zero ATM share sales, and a $139M preferred-stock repurchase in one week. The capital-allocation cadence has shifted without the headline number moving.
