Market intelligence firm Santiment reports that social media chatter has officially entered the "FOMO Zone" following Bitcoin's recovery above $70,000 this week.

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes has paused his Bitcoin accumulation, stating he will not deploy fresh capital until the Federal Reserve resumes "money printing" to support the economy.

Kalshi suffers court loss in Ohio over sports betting lawsuit

A federal judge in Ohio has denied Kalshi’s request to block state regulators from enforcing gambling laws against its sports-event contracts. The court rejected Kalshi’s argument that its prediction markets are "swaps" under exclusive federal CFTC jurisdiction, ruling instead that there is no evidence Congress intended to override state sports betting laws. This decision allows the Ohio Casino Control Commission to treat these contracts as illegal, unlicensed gambling while the broader lawsuit continues.

BitGo to custody digital assets for StableX’s $100M stablecoin plan

In a major institutional move this March 2026, BitGo has been appointed as the official custodian for StableX Technologies' ambitious $100 million digital asset treasury.

SEC chair calls for ‘coordinated oversight‘ between US regulators

SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and CFTC Chairman Michael Selig have signed a historic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to end the "regrettable era" of regulatory turf wars.

Bitcoin leads, altcoin indicators drop to intriguing lows. Time for an alt season
