Bitcoin Doesn’t Rise Gradually—It Gaps | Here’s Why

It’s that you won’t be able to buy it at the price you think you will. Because Bitcoin doesn’t move the way most people expect. It doesn’t slowly rise as demand increases. It gaps.

The third-largest was a private key compromise targeting stablecoin issuer Resolv Labs on March 21. The quarterly figure…

DeFi Is Optimizing For gas, Not For Markets

boss

Opinion by: João Garcia, DevReal lead at Cartesi.Decentralized finance presents itself as a transparent alternative to Wall Street. Yet, what it has largely reconstructed is a simplified version of finance, engineered less around market resilience than around the constraints of gas fees. That trade-off, once treated as a technical footnote, is increasingly shaping the limits of what DeFi can become. So long as computational minimalism remains the overriding priority, financial robustness will remain secondary, and periods of market stress will continue to expose that imbalance. When markets move faster than…

Clarity Act Could Pressure DeFi Tokens by Ring-Fencing Yield, Analyst Warns

An analyst warning tied to the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act) has identified the Senate draft’s yield-restriction provisions as a structural headwind for decentralized finance tokens, arguing that ring-fencing on-chain yield distributions would directly erode the revenue models underpinning governance tokens, liquid staking derivatives, and yield aggregator protocols. The warning arrives as the Senate Banking Committee targets a spring 2026 markup following a March 1 text deadline, with Kalshi prediction markets placing passage odds at approximately 69%. We suspect this is not a marginal concern about regulatory inconvenience…
