Analysts say no Pi Network ETF is in sight, stressing the need for real price discovery, liquidity, regulatory maturity and regulated custody before any filing. Summary No Pi Network ETF exists, and no issuer has filed or announced plans, according to industry observers and the ActuFinance analysis. ActuFinance says Pi needs a reliable public price, stronger trading volume, clearer regulation and a regulated custodian before institutional ETF interest. A rumored MiCA-compliant Pi listing on OKX Europe in late 2025 could aid liquidity, but an ETF still hinges on sustained stability and transparency. No Pi Network exchange-traded fund currently exists, and…
Dogecoin trades below a firm descending resistance line, with repeated failed rallies, bearish momentum and extreme fear keeping downside continuation the base case. Summary Price sits well below major moving averages, with lower highs, persistent bearish momentum and elevated volatility signaling trend deterioration. Each rally into the descending resistance line is met with strong selling, with volume spikes and long upper wicks confirming sellers’ control. Analysts say only a decisive breakout above the resistance band would challenge the bearish continuation scenario and projected lower target zone. Dogecoin extended its decline following another rejection at a descending resistance line, according to…

Switzerland will adopt the crypto-asset reporting framework in law from 2025 but delay automatic cross-border crypto tax data-sharing until at least 2027. Summary Swiss authorities will incorporate the crypto-asset reporting framework into national law on January 1 but postpone practical implementation by at least one year. The delay stems from suspended talks on which partner states will receive Swiss crypto account data, even as 75 countries commit to rolling out the framework. The U.S. is considering joining via an IRS proposal, while non-signatories such as Argentina, El Salvador, Vietnam and India remain outside the agreement. Switzerland has postponed the implementation…

The AWS outage is a reminder of how fragile modern digital systems have become when so much depends on a single provider. A fault in a domain name system (DNS) record triggered cascading failures across Amazon Web Services infrastructure, taking down over 14,000 websites and causing more than $1 billion in losses within just two hours, including Coinbase, MetaMask, and Robinhood among the casualties. When the functions came back online, data synchronisation caused a domino effect of…
Nasdaq’s ISE asks the SEC to lift iShares Bitcoin Trust options limits to one million contracts, enabling larger institutional hedging but potentially more volatility. Summary The proposal would move iShares Bitcoin Trust into a top derivatives tier alongside Apple , Nvidia , the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 , citing its market cap and volume. A one-million-contract position would equal about 7.5% of the ETF’s float and 0.284% of all bitcoin , allowing dealers to hedge bigger pension and hedge fund flows. Analysts say higher limits and FLEX options relief could tighten spreads and support structured products, but also magnify volatility when dealers rebalance large gamma…
South Korean authorities suspect that the November Upbit hack may have been masterminded by the notorious Lazarus Group. Summary South Korean authorities suspect Lazarus Group orchestrated the Upbit breach that drained more than $30M in crypto. At least 24 Solana‑based assets were taken from a compromised hot wallet. On‑chain data shows the stolen funds were converted to USDC and moved to Ethereum. Unnamed industry sources told local media that the North Korean state-backed hackers may have been behind the breach, as the recent attack bears a strong resemblance to a similar incident that hit the exchange back in 2019. Bad…
Cardano’s path to recovery depends on breaking 0.53 resistance amid weak money flows, Midnight launch hopes, and split sentiment on its long-term viability. Summary Cardano shows RSI bullish divergence but remains stuck below key 0.53 dollar resistance, limiting confirmation of any recovery trend. Chaikin money flow stays negative, signaling absent institutional demand and fragile sustainability for any short-term rallies. Upcoming Midnight sidechain launch and treasury-funded stablecoin plans contrast with “ghost chain” criticisms and uncertain 2026 rankings. Cardano’s price recovery remains contingent on breaking above a key resistance level at $0.53, according to technical analysis published by The Coin Republic. The…

Summary Dan Gambardello links altcoin bull phases to the end of quantitative tightening and manufacturing pmi rising above 50, with the current qt cycle ending in days. Chainlink and Cardano trade near 2019 QT-end levels versus bitcoin, with on-chain and risk scores still in relatively low zones.
