据 Cointelegraph 报道，加拿大比特币硬件钱包制造商 Coinkite 警告 Coldcard Mk3 用户立即迁移资金，受影响固件版本为 2021 年 3 月发布的 4.0.1 至最终版本 5.0.3，Mk4、Q 及 Mk5 不受影响。与此同时，比特币安全专家正在调查一起涉及 594.48 枚 BTC（约 3830 万美元）的异常清仓事件，涉及 1324 个 UTXO 在三个区块内通过 500 笔交易被转移，所有地址均为单签名地址。
Odaily News, BIT Official released a weekly report stating that trading volume in the crypto market has fallen 80% from its peak, contracting approximately 60% from the Q4 2025 high, while the total crypto market cap has also dropped 50%. The report noted that without a meaningful recovery in volume, the market will struggle to form a sustained rebound.Despite the market still digesting the double headwinds of the Fed's hawkish policy stance and stalled progress on the CLARITY Act, Bitcoin has held within the $62,000 to $66,000 range. BIT Official expects Bitcoin to eventually break upward.The report stated that Fed Chair Kevin Warsh has recently adopted a "say less, do less" communication strategy, and the uncertainty surrounding his policy stance is unsettling the market. Warsh has been known for his hawkish position over the past two decades, but the market had previously anticipated that, with Trump's support, he might push monetary policy in a more dovish direction. If that shift materializes, it could be a positive catalyst for Bitcoin.Additionally, prediction market data shows that the probability of the CLARITY Act being signed into law by the end of 2026 currently stands at just 32%. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has indicated that the Senate will prioritize other issues, and with the August recess approaching, the remaining legislative window for the bill is further narrowing.
According to Cointelegraph, Bhutan's special administrative region Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC) announced it has commissioned Canadian digital asset management company 3iQ to manage a portion of its Bitcoin treasury, with the specific scale undisclosed. This collaboration is a continuation of the plan announced by Bhutan in December 2025—at that time, Bhutan announced it would allocate up to 10,000 BTC from its state-held Bitcoin to support the development and construction of Gelephu City. Under the latest agreement, 3iQ will manage the relevant assets institutionally and establish a long-term operational presence locally, investing in local talent development and knowledge transfer.
Odaily News: Canadian Bitcoin hardware manufacturer Coinkite has warned users of Coldcard Mk3 signing devices to migrate funds from wallets whose seed phrases were generated by affected firmware. Coinkite stated that seed phrases generated by Mk3 firmware version 4.0.1 and later, released in March 2021, may put funds at risk, with the impact extending to version 5.0.3, the final version supporting the Mk3. Coinkite said that Mk4, Q, and Mk5 models are not affected; affected users should generate new seed phrases on unaffected devices, verify backups and receiving addresses, send a small test transaction first, and then migrate the remaining funds. The company said its investigation is still ongoing and that a formal technical review will be published. Bitcoin security experts are examining a centralized transfer of unclear origin involving 594.48 BTC in single-signature addresses, valued at approximately $38.3 million. Rob Hamilton, CEO and co-founder of AnchorWatch, stated that 1,324 unspent transaction outputs were moved via 500 transactions within a three-block window, with 562 BTC subsequently consolidated into another address. Kevin Loaec, CEO of Wizardsardine, said the current hypothesis is that a low-entropy random number generator has caused insufficient randomness in some wallets' seed phrases, with the relevant flaw potentially stemming from a software library, secure element, specific device batch, or firmware version. He added that this hypothesis has not yet been confirmed, and wallets from which only partial funds were transferred may still face the risk of subsequent theft.
BitcoinTreasuries.NET posted on X that Bitcoin-backed AI data center developer Hyperscale Data GPUS announced H1 2026 revenue of $80 million, up 57% from 2025. The company expects FY 2026 revenue of $200 million. Its BTC holdings have increased by 95% year-to-date, currently totaling 1,006 BTC.
Bitget Wallet announces that its crypto payment card, Bitget Wallet Card, has completed a major upgrade and will officially launch the "Assetback" mechanism on August 1, with the asset cashback rate simultaneously increased to 3%. This mechanism will be open to over 50 countries across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region. Cardholders can freely choose their preferred cashback assets, covering BTC, gold, tokenized US stocks (NVDA, TSLA, GOOGL, S&P 500), stablecoins, and more. The base asset cashback rate is 2%, while new users or users who reach the monthly spending threshold can unlock the 3% cashback tier. This upgrade breaks the traditional model where card swiping only returns cash/points, marking the transformation of Bitget Wallet Card services from consumption cashback to accumulation of appreciating assets. It turns daily consumption into an opportunity for RWA asset allocation, allowing users to achieve a new daily finance experience of "spend to build positions" without needing to open a brokerage account throughout the process or perform extra operations at checkout.
据 Cointelegraph 报道，美国财政部外国资产控制办公室（OFAC）宣布制裁两家伊朗海运公司——波斯湾海洋保险公司（Persian Gulf Marine Insurance Company）及霍尔木兹安全海事服务局（HormuzSafe），指控两者系伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队（IRGC）支持的海运保险网络核心成员，强制要求过境霍尔木兹海峡的商业船只购买其认可的保险。 OFAC 指控 HormuzSafe 接受 BTC 及其他加密资产以规避西方制裁，并代表 IRGC 获取收入。此前 5 月，HormuzSafe 网站曾公开提供可用比特币支付的"数字保险"服务，伊朗官方媒体法尔斯通讯社称该平台潜在收入规模逾 100 亿美元。此次制裁还涉及与伊朗"影子船队"相关的 8 家公司及 8 艘船只。
: Japanese game developer Gumi announced it will launch a 3 billion yen (approximately $18.3 million) crypto asset fund this Saturday in partnership with SBI Financial Services, with support from Daiwa Securities Group and other investors. The fund will be operated by SBI Crypto Fund, a joint venture in which SBI Financial Services holds a 51% stake and Gumi's subsidiary gC Labs holds the remaining 49%. The fund will primarily invest in Bitcoin and major altcoins, employing strategies such as staking, portfolio rebalancing, and hedging. Gumi stated that the fund aims to bridge Japan's corporate sector with the crypto market and establish an operational track record ahead of a potential future lifting of the ban on crypto ETFs in Japan. Gumi's crypto business also includes managing its own crypto assets centered around XRP, offering portfolio management services through Hinode Technologies, and operating a crypto investment fund. According to Gumi's latest annual report, as of April 30, 2026, the company held 14.13 billion yen in crypto assets, nearly double the 7.58 billion yen recorded a year earlier.

the Federal Reserve held its benchmark interest rate steady at 3.5% to 3.75% on Wednesday, in line with market expectations. This marks the fifth consecutive meeting where the committee has taken no action since the 25 basis point rate cut in December 2025. Following the Fed's announcement, the price of Bitcoin fell approximately 1% to $63,890, while Ethereum also dropped about 1%, trading above $1,900. This decision did not include a Summary of Economic Projections or a dot plot, with the next dot plot scheduled for release in September. The committee stated that the U.S. economy is expanding at a solid pace, but inflation remains above the 2% target, partly due to rising energy prices driven by tensions in the Middle East. Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack, Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari, and Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan dissented against maintaining the rate, supporting an immediate 25 basis point hike instead. The next FOMC decision is scheduled for September 16, 2026, and will include updated economic projections and a new dot plot.
According to Bitcoin.com, digital asset wealth platform Nexo announced the completion of an upgrade to its European Economic Area (EEA) operational structure to comply with the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR). Nexo chose to partner with two entities regulated by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) rather than directly applying for a single MiCAR license: Tangany holds a MiCAR license and is responsible for providing segregated digital asset custody infrastructure; DLT Finance holds both MiCAR and MiFID II authorizations and is responsible for providing brokerage and execution infrastructure. Currently, all of Nexo's services in the EEA are operating seamlessly without any interruption.

According to Cryptopolitan, the Central Bank of Russia (CBR) has released a draft of supporting regulatory rules for the cryptocurrency market, covering registration and operational requirements for crypto exchanges, digital depository institutions, and token issuers. The draft stipulates that the minimum net assets of digital depository institutions must range between 50 million and 250 million rubles (approximately $600,000 to $3 million), depending on the nature of the business. These rules will supplement the "Law on Digital Currency and Digital Rights" passed by the Russian State Duma earlier this month, which is expected to officially take effect on September 1, 2026. Under the new framework, non-qualified investors are limited to purchasing mainstream assets such as BTC, ETH, and USDT annually, with a cap of $4,000; industry participants will have a transition period until March 1, 2027, to complete compliance and approval procedures.
According to Bitcoin.com, Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor stated that since the company established Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset in August 2020, MSTR stock has achieved an annualized return of 42%, surpassing Bitcoin itself, the "Magnificent Seven" tech stocks, and the S&P 500 Index. As of July 29, Strategy holds 843,775 BTC, with a cumulative purchase cost of approximately $63.69 billion, and an average price of approximately $75,476 per coin, currently showing an unrealized loss of approximately 17.9% compared to the cost price (approximately $11.4 billion). To address the increasingly complex capital structure, Strategy launched three new metrics on July 24: Net BTC Per Share, BTC Hurdle ARR (minimum annualized return required to cover financing costs), and BTC Floor ARR (minimum annualized return required to maintain leverage ratio sustainability), to help investors more clearly assess the actual value of their Bitcoin holdings. Additionally, the company plans to provide funding for preferred stock repurchases through the future sale of a portion of its Bitcoin.
: MARA CEO Fred Thiel stated that power used for AI infrastructure can generate higher returns than Bitcoin mining, with the same amount of electricity dedicated to AI yielding more revenue. MARA still plans to continue mining in regions where low-cost or surplus energy is economically attractive. Thiel said that MARA began acquiring sites previously hosting mining rigs between late 2023 and early 2024, and by the end of 2024, it had owned infrastructure supporting approximately 70% of its operations. The company then shifted its focus to energy assets. MARA has partnered with Starwood to establish a platform, with a near-term target of approximately 1 GW of computing capacity, and plans exceeding 2.5 GW. In July, MARA also agreed to acquire a site in Texas that can access approximately 2 GW of power for digital infrastructure.
Odaily News, March 24 – Antpool mined Bitcoin block 941,881 at UTC time 15:49:35. Foundry USA mined another version of the same height 12 seconds later, briefly creating two competing chains on the Bitcoin blockchain. Subsequently, ViaBTC extended block 941,882 on top of the Antpool version, while Foundry USA also continued to extend its own branch. Foundry USA then mined blocks 941,883 to 941,886 consecutively, giving its branch a cumulative workload lead. Nodes subsequently reorganized to the Foundry USA version, causing the blocks mined by Antpool and ViaBTC to become orphaned. The affected miners lost the corresponding block rewards and fees, and transactions not confirmed on the winning chain re-entered the mempool to be confirmed in subsequent blocks.

Bitcoin News posted on platform X, stating that Australian brewery Hawkesbury Brewing Co has integrated 16 Bitcoin miners into its brewing operations.
