Bitcoin (BTC) is hanging around $74k, still respecting the post‑shock range and struggling to clear recent highs. Bitcoin Range Holds Today’s QCP Market Colour reports that “the damage has been fairly contained”: the broader crypto market is soft compared with November–January, but continues to be under pressure, as other macro‑sensitive risk assets have fallen harder, although the pullback has been fairly limited in comparison. Dip‑buying interest appears near the lower end of the range, yet spot volumes are light and the tape feels macro‑led rather than crypto‑idiosyncratic. Related Reading In…

Speaking at the DC Blockchain Summit hosted by the Digital Chamber on Wednesday, Lummis said she had thought that the crypto industry would already be celebrating a “victory lap” for the market structure bill, which passed the US House of Representatives in July 2025.

Gemini stock’s 3% slide flags decoupling from Bitcoin and crypto rally
Gemini’s GEMI stock is down about 3% over 24 hours and trading below $6 even as Bitcoin, Ethereum and Coinbase rebound, signaling growing decoupling from the crypto rally. Summary GEMI opened near $5.95, about 3% below its 24‑hour level and near the bottom of today’s $5.92–$6.98 range, a pattern that suggests distribution rather than fresh accumulation. After a 2025 IPO at $28 and a first‑day pop to ~$37, the stock has traced a classic post‑hype round‑trip as exploding losses, heavy spend and thin liquidity leave late‑cycle retail deep underwater. Bitcoin…

XRP Price Near $14M Options Battleground That Could Spark Dump
XRP price is trading tightly around the $1.45 mark, but derivatives data suggest the asset is being magnetized by a significant cluster of options open interest at the $1.40 strike. With approximately $14.6 million in contracts concentrated at this specific level, the market is facing a classic liquidity battleground that could dictate short-term volatility as expiry approaches. The mechanics of dealer hedging around this “pin” risk often suppress price discovery until the contracts settle, creating a coiled-spring effect on the subsequent move. This concentration represents nearly a quarter of all…
