In a recent post on QuickTake, the ever-dramatic CryptoOnchain (probably wearing a cape while typing) reveals that Ethereum derivatives traders are being steamrolled by sellers so aggressive, they make Black Friday shoppers look like amateurs. The Ethereum: Taker Buy Sell Ratio on Binance-smoothed over with a 30-day moving average, because why not?-is singing the blues. And by blues, I mean it’s plummeted to levels not seen since November 2025. Yes, you read that right. The future is now, and it’s not looking good.

In their most recent petition, these digital knights argue with fervor that the present drafts of the CLARITY Act threaten to extinguish the very essence of DeFi-like a candle snuffed out by an unwelcome draft!

The Ripple (XRP) token, ever the social butterfly, has soared in tandem with the broader crypto market. Bitcoin (BTC), that stoic aristocrat, jumped to $70,000, while lesser nobles like Zcash, Morpho, and Pippin-a name that sounds like it belongs in a Dickens novel-soared by over 20%. The market capitalization of all coins, in a grand gesture, rose by over 3.4% to a princely $2.38 trillion. Ah, the drama of it all!

Oh, how we love a splashy launch or a raucous debate! But let’s not forget the unsung heroes who toil away in the shadows, making sure everything runs smoother than a well-oiled machine. The Cardano Improvement Proposal (CIP) process is like a secret recipe, stirred up by a gang of detail-oriented wizards who fix typos, polish drafts, and nudge proposals over the finish line. It’s about as glamorous as watching paint dry, but without this diligent work, the whole Cardano contraption would sputter and pop like a misfiring rocket!

Old Pompliano-Pomp to his pals-is wondering if the Bitcoin crowd has the stomach for this. Bought it as an inflation shield? Well, now that inflation’s playing hide-and-seek, are you still in the game, or did you run off to the gold buffet? Pomp says if deflation shows up, it’ll just be a sneaky setup for the Fed to fire up the money printer again. Call it the “monetary slingshot”-a fancy way of saying, “Hold on to your hats, folks, the ride’s not over.”

The artificial intelligence (AI) industry, as large as it has grown, is set to follow the same playbook that crypto executed to bring friendly candidates into Congress.

Human.tech, the self-proclaimed guardian of privacy-first infrastructure, has announced the integration of Wallet-as-a-Protocol (WaaP) on the Sui blockchain. This rollout introduces a fully decentralized wallet execution layer, allowing developers to onboard users with seedless, self-custodial wallets. Truly, a triumph of convenience over the complexities of human nature.

The Brazilian crypto industry is poised for a seismic shift, thanks to this new tax measure that’s just around the corner like a particularly annoying cousin at a family reunion.

The missing 22 BTC were found to be, well, decidedly missing during a sweeping inspection of virtual asset management across various law enforcement agencies. Officials made this startling discovery on February 13, 2026, while likely wondering how it could happen. The assets were worth approximately 2.1 billion won at the time of the revelation, which I assume is quite a bit of money in anyone’s book.

Once upon a time, our dear Mother Russia was resolutely opposed to any notions of a centralized stablecoin, clutching her pearls at the mere thought. Yet, here we are, with Chistyukhin proclaiming that foreign practices warrant a renewed inspection of risks and prospects, as if the rest of the world hasn’t been enjoying this digital revolution without them.
