Coinbase Offers $1M USDC Loans Backed by Tokenized Staked ETH (cbETH)

BitMine bought 41,788 ETH last week, significantly expanding its treasury during recent market softness. The purchase arrives as Tom Lee publicly called a crypto market bottom, reinforcing accumulation narratives.

David Schwartz confirmed he sold 40,000 ETH at about $1.05 and liquidated nearly all his Bitcoin before it rose past $7,500, answering a long-running community question. He characterized the moves as personal, early-stage decisions rather than market timing plays.

A Dogecoin founder publicly rejected Vitalik Buterin’s proposal to reshape creator tokens, calling the idea “flawed” after Buterin outlined a model that mixes prediction markets with community voting. The exchange highlights rising debate over how creator economies should be tokenized and governed.

Bitcoin fell to $74,550, a 10‑month low, as the crypto market sold off and major altcoins including Ethereum, XRP and Dogecoin posted sharp losses today. The move sees BTC retesting a key support zone that will be pivotal for near‑term direction.

The Ethereum Foundation has made post-quantum security a strategic priority and formed a dedicated Post‑Quantum team to work on leanVM and post-quantum signatures. The effort aims to prepare ETH and the wider ecosystem for the long-term risk posed by quantum computers.
