Bitcoin-specific news — protocol activity, scaling layers, and BTC-centric applications.
No dovish catalyst from CPI leaves a move above $80,000 dependent on weaker data, a softer Fed stance, or another policy catalyst.
A hike is priced in; a surprise hold could actually be the bigger catalyst. Either way, yields are climbing on policy-credibility concerns, and bitcoin is starting to trade alongside gold as the…
Zach Pandl's read at Grayscale carries institutional weight: if the floor is in, short-side liquidity has thinned faster than spot accumulation, and the next leg up starts from a structurally higher…
PPI and CPI put Bitcoin's $78K level in a macro test, while the 50W EMA and 50 MA define the key downside and upside technical thresholds.
The cut is the first concrete shareholder-friendly move since 2024's bitcoin-treasury pivot, but Gerovich's already-exercised 64M shares stay in his pocket, leaving the harder governance questions…
A 77k BTC surge since late April now puts Binance at 30% of all major exchange reserves, a concentration level that historically precedes distribution pressure.
Blockstream is calling the 10% demand 'theft, not white-hat disclosure.' The refusal draws a hard line on whether open-source Bitcoin infrastructure pays bug-bounty blackmail at all.
The advertised rate is miners' bid, not a base-layer return: if Proof of Transfer spend dries up, the payout stream dries up with it.
The print is the proximate trigger, but the move is the rate story: a 69% implied probability of a hike next week has the short end of the curve repricing, and crypto is moving with it.
The three-day Bitcoin streak puts institutional demand under pressure, while BlackRock's ETHB inflow of $13.95M failed to offset Ethereum's $29.76M total outflow.
S&P set a 12-month window in October 2025 during which an upgrade was unlikely. Strategy has now answered all three rating tests, putting that clock on the rating committee's desk.
Weekly closes above the 50-week average matter more than a single move, while a retreat toward $70K would still fit the 2023 bottoming pattern.
Positive seven-day flows in both markets keep the institutional demand signal intact, even as the latest session recorded heavy withdrawals.
Ether's tighter range and Bitcoin Hyper's $33.12M presale offer two contrasting signals as bond-market stress keeps major crypto assets defensive.
Investors are still acquiring coins, but a break below the forming cluster would put $75K in focus; a full retrace to $60K would then be in play.
A hot PPI would push Fed-hike odds past 60%, where CME FedWatch is already pricing, and risk breaking the $76K floor bulls are defending into Friday's CPI.
The Coinbase CEO pairs the bottom call with new stablecoin traction: payments on Base up 700% YoY and Glassnode data showing selling pressure has halved since the August peak.
The next regime shift hinges on whether CPI, central-bank policy or oil delivers a shock markets have not already absorbed.
With a Senate vote set for Sept. 15, Coinbase's CEO argues the regulatory path is already locked in, and that certainty alone is enough to support a $400K Bitcoin price target.
At $400K, Bitcoin's market cap would land near $8T, comparable to gold. Armstrong's long-dated calls anchor retail expectations more than they move spot tape.
