Tax relief may help U.S. validators, but miners still point to cheaper power and faster permitting as the constraints that determine where capacity gets built.
The constitutional fight is the headline, but Trump Media's parallel push to license the same fast-feed to prediction markets is the beat crypto investors will read.
Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF outflows dwarfed XRP's weekly inflow, making the broader institutional retreat more important than isolated demand for XRP and HYPE.
The bigger signal is product breadth: Kraken is linking crypto's always-on derivatives model with traditional market exposure inside its funded trading program.
