At the centre of this curious contraption is XLS-0070, or as one might call it in polite company, “Credentials.” This specification lets issuers wave their magic wands and attest facts about an XRPL account-identity verification, sanctions status, the usual bedroom secrets-without exposing any private paperwork to the cold, unforgiving blockchain. In the words of the XRPL documentation, “The Credentials feature is a set of tools for managing authorization and compliance requirements using the XRP Ledger blockchain, while respecting privacy and decentralization.” Quite the mouthful, isn’t it? Essentially, it borrows the W3C Verifiable Credentials standard, swapping out URLs for XRPL addresses, because URLs were just so last decade.

But hold onto your digital hats. With $8.2 billion in debt, $735 million drowning in new share dilution, and a Frankenstein’s monster of fancy financial products, critics whisper that Saylor’s steering this ship straight into the shark-infested waters of risk. Bombs away? Maybe. 🎲

So, I’m watching this live broadcast of some military parade in Beijing, and I overhear Putin and Xi Jinping talking about living forever 🤑. I mean, who doesn’t want to live forever, right? 🤷‍♂️ Apparently, Xi says people might live to be , and Putin is all like, “Hey, with these new surgical techniques and … Read more

The tale of Metaplanet (MTPLF) serves as a perfect example of the chaos that reigns supreme in this volatile market. In just 18 months, it has survived no fewer than 12 “mini-bear markets.” Now, one might wonder: are BTCTC stocks simply a mirror of Bitcoin’s wild mood swings, or do they have their own set of internal demons to deal with? 🧐

It’s great to be back! @AmericanBTC @worldlibertyfi 😎

In a new post on X, on-chain analytics firm Santiment has talked about how the different assets in the Ethereum ecosystem line up against each other in terms of the amount of supply that’s concentrated on the top 10 wallets. Because nothing says “trust us” like a 51% stake. 🧠💥

Brace yourselves for this: Glassnode, the on-chain analytics firm that never fails to make us question our life choices, recently shared some intriguing data. They define “whales” as entities holding between 100 and 10,000 BTC, which, at today’s exchange rates, translates to a range of $11.2 million to a cool $1.1 billion. So, yes, we’re talking about traders who could probably buy an island or two if they wanted. Or at least a yacht. 🛥️💸

The adjusted data, lovingly curated for consistent valuation, shows that in June 2025, SMSF crypto holdings stood at a modest 3.02 billion Australian dollars ($1.97 billion). A trifling $100 million less than the $3.12 billion reported in June 2024. As per the ATO report published on Wednesday, because timing is everything, isn’t it? ⌛

In the vast and often unforgiving world of cryptocurrencies, Solana (SOL) stands as a testament to resilience and strategic positioning. At the moment, SOL is trading at $210, marking a modest 4% gain over the last 24 hours and a 3% rise over the past week. The price is confined within a tight consolidation range between $200 and $206, a zone that has seen steady accumulation amidst recent market turbulence.

And what’s the end goal? Well, the two companies are targeting over 90 markets. Apparently, there’s a growing need for faster and cheaper cross-border transactions, especially in places that are still stuck in the dark ages of financial systems.
