Overview
- In recent SEC filings, Goldman Sachs was reported to be actively adjusting spot Bitcoin ETF positions, signaling a shift to day‑to‑day risk controls as crypto is treated like a conventional asset class.
- Net outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs were cited as a near‑term driver of Bitcoin’s drop below $70,000, reinforcing a rotation from speculative trades to utility‑focused infrastructure.
- Fed Governor Christopher Waller said the hype phase is fading and pointed to deeper TradFi integration, which is pushing attention toward security standards suitable for regulated payment rails.
- BMIC’s presale has raised roughly $441k–$446k at about $0.049474 per token, with the project marketing a post‑quantum finance stack using PQC, ERC‑4337 smart accounts, and zero public‑key exposure.
- Security concerns remained front of mind as the Ethereum Foundation partnered with SEAL on wallet‑drainer defenses and reporting highlighted both a ~$13M ETH move by the Infini‑linked wallet and Bithumb’s 99.7% recovery from an erroneous Bitcoin airdrop.
