    Coinbase Can Delist Wrapped Bitcoin Amid BiT Global Challenge, Judge Rules

    A federal judge denied BiT Global’s request for a temporary restraining order Wednesday, finding that the Hong Kong-based firm failed to show an imminent and irreparable harm that would come from Coinbase’s plans to soon delist WBTC, or Wrapped Bitcoin. “Ultimately, I have no evidence from you about what is to come,” U.S. District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín told BiT Global’s attorney. “I will not stop Coinbase from delisting WBTC.” BiT Global sued Coinbase last week, alleging the exchange’s p...

    'Christmas Tree' Funding Bill in Congress Includes Gifts for Crypto Industry

    A spending agreement unveiled by congressional leaders Tuesday—a so-called Christmas Tree stopgap bill packed with various additions before the holiday break—is aimed at averting a government shutdown. But it also includes a relatively novel crypto-related initiative. Tucked within a 1,547-page bill that would keep the government funded through March 14, 2025, the legislative package currently includes the “Deploying American Blockchains Act,” a measure that would enable the U.S. Department of C...

    XRP Demand Grows as Bitcoin, Ethereum Drive Billions to Crypto ETFs

    A months-long torrent of cash continued apace last week, as digital asset investment products—including spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs—saw $3.2 billion worth of inflows. Lifting year-to-date inflows to $44.5 billion, the figure clocked in at quadruple that of any year on record, according to data from CoinShares. In a Monday blog post, CoinShares Head of Research James Butterfill described the figure “astonishing”—with two weeks left to go in 2024. Representing the 10th straight week that digita...

    Just weeks after the popular meme coin Dogwifhat (WIF) launched on major centralized trading platforms, Coinbase and Robinhood users that invested in the dog-themed coin are likely licking their paws Tuesday. WIF’s market cap has plunged by nearly $1.2 billion over the course of three days, as other meme coins in the cryptosphere have also taken a hit. At a current price of $2.83, Tuesday’s 12% drop has accelerated the recent losses, leaving almost anyone that bought WIF on Coinbase and Robinhoo...

    Not long after Bitcoin’s climb past $100,000, some analysts are predicting that the asset’s price could double in a year’s time. In a Thursday research note, Standard Chartered’s Global Head of Digital Assets Research Geoff Kendrick wrote that Bitcoin’s record-setting rally has been bolstered primarily by flows from institutional investors, who are flocking to spot ETFs. Meanwhile, the laser-eyed, Bitcoin-buying firm MicroStrategy has been vacuuming up the asset at a faster-than-expected clip. “...

    BBQ sauce, pickles, onions, and pork: A day after McDonald’s fan-favorite McRib sandwich returned to U.S. restaurants, Bitcoin’s price topped $100,000 for the first time ever. Were these ingredients (plus a dash of dextrose sugar) necessary to cement Bitcoin’s record-setting climb?
