Once a simple stablecoin issuer, Tether now mirrors central bank mechanics with reserves, profits and policy-like decisions. Tether operates a Treasury- and repo-heavy balance sheet, holding $181.2 billion in reserves against $174.5 billion in liabilities, leaving $6.8 billion in excess. High interest rates have turned those reserves into profit, generating more than $10 billion in interest income so far in 2025, which is uncommon for a typical crypto issuer. It exercises policy-style levers by freezing sanctioned wallets, shifting supported blockchains and allocating up to 15% of profits to Bitcoin. Read more -

Money was anonymous for thousands of years until the recent experiment in financial surveillance. Privacy-preserving crypto offers a path back to normalcy. Opinion by: Carter Feldman, CEO of Psy For thousands of years, money changed hands in private. A bronze coin passed from merchant to customer, leaving no record of the transaction. No government official knew what you bought or from whom. No bank tracked your spending habits. This wasn’t a bug in the system — it was how money worked. Even as banking systems developed, privacy remained the default. When you paid for a beer with a banknote issued by an institution like the Bank of England, there was no compulsion for the tavern to perform real ID verification or Know Your Customer (KYC).

The Bank of England invites feedback on its proposed stablecoin framework, with the aim of finalizing the rules in the second half of 2026. The United Kingdom’s central bank is moving toward stablecoin regulation by publishing a consultation paper proposing a regulatory framework for the asset class. The Bank of England (BoE) on Monday released a proposed regulatory regime for sterling-denominated “systemic stablecoins,” or tokens it said are widely used in payments and therefore potentially pose risks to the UK financial stability. Under the proposal, the central bank would require stablecoin issuers to back at least 40% of their liabilities with unremunerated deposits at the BoE, while allowing up to 60% in short-term UK government debt.

Bitcoin and gold often display a recurring pattern during the Christmas rally. Their movements are shaped by Federal Reserve policy, inflation trends and overall market liquidity. The Christmas rally, also known as the “Santa Claus rally,” refers to a recurring pattern in which crypto markets tend to rise during the final weeks of December and early January. Several factors contribute to this trend, including improved investor sentiment during the festive season and year-end portfolio adjustments as traders and institutions rebalance their holdings. Lower liquidity during the holidays can also amplify price movements, adding to the rally’s momentum. Around Christmas, crypto investors often behave differently than they do throughout the rest of the year. Read more -

The cheap network fees are a boon for traders but could signal long-term fundamental issues with Ethereum's revenue generation model. Gas fees on the Ethereum layer-1 blockchain dropped to just 0.067 Gwei on Sunday, amid a lull in the crypto markets sparked by October’s historic market crash. The average price for executing a swap on Ethereum is just $0.11, non-fungible token (NFT) sales carry a fee of $0.19, bridging a digital asset to another blockchain network will cost users $0.04, and onchain borrowing costs $0.09 at the time of this writing, according to Etherscan. Ethereum network transaction fees hit a recent high of 15.9 Gwei on October 10, the day of the market flash crash that caused some altcoins to shed over 90% of their value within 24 hours.

Large, long-term crypto and Bitcoin investors continue to sell into the market, keeping asset prices from hitting a blow-off top. Crypto whales and long-term holders are cashing out, exerting constant selling pressure on markets, and keeping crypto prices suppressed, similar to market dynamics following the 2000s dot-com stock market crash, according to analyst Jordi Visser. Visser said the current price action in the crypto market is reminiscent of the period following the 2000 dot-com stock market bubble, which crashed stocks by up to 80%, followed by 16 years of consolidation before they regained their previous highs. This meant that venture capitalists, who invested in tech during the crash, were forced to hold their investments due to mandated lock-up periods as they treaded water and then desperately sold into the markets as soon as they were able to, Visser said. He added: Read more -

Investors saw the announcement as a positive catalyst for crypto markets, but the proposed stimulus hinges on a Supreme Court ruling. United States President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that most Americans will receive a $2,000 “dividend” from the tariff revenue and criticized the opposition to his sweeping tariff policies. “A dividend of at least $2000 a person, not including high-income people, will be paid to everyone,” Trump said on Truth Social. The US Supreme Court is currently hearing arguments about the legality of the tariffs, with the overwhelming majority of prediction market traders betting against a court approval.

Explore how the Condorcet paradox exposes the limits of perfect fairness in blockchain consensus. For decades, research in distributed systems, especially in Byzantine consensus and state machine replication (SMR), has focused on two main goals: consistency and liveness. Consistency means all nodes agree on the same sequence of transactions, while liveness ensures the system continues to add new ones. Still, these properties do not stop bad actors from changing the order of transactions after they are received. In public blockchains, that gap in traditional consensus guarantees has become a serious problem. Validators, block builders or sequencers can exploit their privileged role in block ordering for financial gain, a practice known as maximal extractable value (MEV). This manipulation includes profitable frontrunning, backrunning and sandwiching of transactions. Because transaction execution order determines validity or profitability in DeFi applications, the integrity of transaction ordering is vital for ...
