Rate Cuts Won't Magically Launch Bitcoin to Six Figures

Bitcoin usually benefits from an easier Fed, but the derivatives markets we're watching aren't pricing a straightforward move to six figures. Call skew and open interest point to cautious positioning, with low odds on a $100K print in the near term.

Detectives Who Chase Stolen Crypto Faster Than the Cops

When a major exploit hits, the first serious response rarely comes from a regulator or a local police unit. It comes from crypto's onchain detectives spinning up impromptu war rooms in Telegram, Discord, and private chats. We've watched these teams trace funds across mixers, obscure bridges, and nested wallets in minutes, using open-source tools and cross-border networks that most authorities simply don't have. What started as hobbyist chain-watching has become a parallel, global incident-response layer that often decides whether stolen millions are recovered or disappear for good.

GameStop's Q3 Shows BTC Isn't Saving the Story

GameStop's latest quarter was a reminder that meme equity and crypto exposure aren't enough to fix a weak core business. Q3 revenue came in at $821 million, well below the roughly $987 million analysts were looking for, and the stock dropped more than 4% on the print. Management also had less help from Bitcoin this time, with reduced BTC gains trimming a prior tailwind. The combination of sliding sales and fading crypto juice leaves the company leaning on a story that's losing momentum.

$15M Bet That AI Can Decode Onchain Markets

Surf is trying to do for onchain data what domain-specific models did for equities research. The firm raised $15 million in a round led by Pantera, with Coinbase Ventures and DCG also on the cap table, to push its crypto-native AI stack further.

Vanguard's 50M Clients Are Getting a Crypto On-Ramp

Vanguard's move on crypto ETFs isn't just another access headline. It's a clear signal about where digital assets now sit in the capital stack. By giving more than 50 million clients a direct route into spot crypto products, Vanguard is normalizing an asset class it sidelined for years.
