Odaily News S&P Global Ratings on Monday awarded BlackRock's new tokenized money market fund, the BlackRock Daily Reinvestment Stablecoin Reserve Vehicle (BRSRV), an "AAAm" rating, its highest principal stability fund rating. The rating is based on investment and counterparty credit quality, maturity structure, and management's ability to maintain a stable net asset value. S&P Global Ratings stated that it found no weaknesses in BlackRock Advisors' management and organization, credit research and analysis, risk management, or compliance. It also noted that the fund's tokenization framework demonstrates operational resilience, employing a permissioned architecture that restricts transactions to whitelisted wallets to mitigate network, smart contract, and blockchain network risks. BRSRV launched Monday as an open-end management investment company, aiming to make its shares eligible as qualifying reserve assets for payment stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act. The fund will hold cash, U.S. Treasuries with maturities of 93 days or less, and overnight repurchase agreements collateralized by Treasury instruments, maintaining a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days and a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. In a separate stablecoin stability assessment summary published Tuesday, S&P Global Ratings stated that six of the 11 stablecoins it covers possess "sufficient" or stronger capacity to maintain their fiat peg. USDT remains at Level 5 "weak," with TUSD and USDe also at Level 5; USDC, EURC, USDG, and USDP are rated Level 2 "strong."
According to BIT Official Chinese (@BITofficial_CN) analysis, the current crypto market faces dual pressure from the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance and the slowed progress of the CLARITY Act. Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh maintains a hawkish stance; the 2-year US Treasury yield has risen cumulatively by approximately 35 basis points since late January, and the Committee has seen a pattern of 9 votes to maintain interest rates and 3 votes supporting rate hikes. Regarding the CLARITY Act, prediction markets indicate a mere 32% probability of it being signed by the end of 2026, with the legislative window continuing to narrow. Meanwhile, crypto market trading volume has retreated 80% from highs, total market cap has fallen approximately 50%, and USDT and USDC have shown no significant expansion since November 2025, reflecting an overall lack of new USD liquidity in the market. Despite this, Bitcoin remains within the $62,000 to $66,000 range, correcting only about 3% over the past week. It demonstrates stronger resilience compared to most altcoins, reflecting that active position adjustment pressure has been largely released. BIT points out that if Bitcoin subsequently regains $70,000 and drives multiple indicators to turn bullish, it will further confirm that the low point of this cycle has been established.
According to Decrypt, a report released by the Consumer Federation of America (CFA) shows that estimated losses from cryptocurrency fraud in the US in 2025 reached as high as $80.7 billion, approximately 7 times the amount actually reported to the FBI ($11.37 billion). Based on 2017 Bureau of Justice Statistics survey data, the CFA extrapolated unreported losses using a 7.1x multiplier. Investment fraud was the largest single category, with estimated losses reaching $61.4 billion, a year-on-year increase of 32%; losses were particularly severe for the group aged 60 and above, with losses from crypto fraud alone reaching $4.4 billion. Currently, US law enforcement agencies have taken multiple actions, including the FBI's "Operation Level Up" which has prevented approximately $500 million in losses, and the Department of Justice has also seized over $25 million in crypto assets involved in fraud.
: New York Attorney General Letitia James submitted written testimony to the U.S. Congress, urging stronger regulation of cryptocurrency companies and warning that proposed federal legislation could undermine states' ability to investigate fraud and hold platforms accountable. Letitia James stated that the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act would preempt state-level digital asset market regulation and transfer oversight authority to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), thereby weakening state and local enforcement. She disclosed that the New York Attorney General’s Office has seen a threefold increase in crypto fraud complaints over the past three years, with total reported losses over the past five years approaching $500 million. She called on crypto platforms to comply with anti-money laundering, know-your-customer (KYC), and cybersecurity requirements, monitor suspicious activity and market manipulation, and be held financially responsible when they fail to protect customers from fraud.
a US Senator has released a new draft of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (Clarity Act), merging two previously advanced versions from the Senate Banking Committee and the Senate Agriculture Committee, and for the first time, includes content related to ethics clauses. The ethics clause in the new draft proposes to prohibit senior government officials from sponsoring or issuing their personal cryptocurrencies. The bill has not yet been fully advanced, and it remains uncertain whether the key provisions will receive bipartisan support.
Odaily News: CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that Bitcoin (BTC) is currently attempting to reclaim the "Active Supply Cost Basis" level.Darkfost noted that active supply refers to all BTC that has been transferred at least once within the past 7 years. By excluding long-dormant Bitcoin, a more accurate average cost basis that aligns with the current market structure can be obtained, with its Realized Price standing at approximately $70,400.He stated that the last time Bitcoin successfully reclaimed this level was in early April, before the market fell back below this zone again in early June, with sellers reasserting dominance.Darkfost said that if BTC can sustain its position above the active supply cost basis this time, it could signal the market is forming a longer-term uptrend, rather than the brief breakout that lasted only about two months previously.This metric is commonly used by the market to observe changes in long-term holder costs and Bitcoin market cycle status. Whether BTC can firmly hold near the $70,400 level will become a key indicator for future bullish and bearish forces.
Peter Schiff, a well-known gold bull and long-term Bitcoin bear, stated that he is confused about Bitcoin's recent lack of decline and believes this rebound provides a new round of selling opportunities for long-term holders. He pointed out that $65,000 is Bitcoin's current key resistance level, with limited upside potential after breaking this level, but significant downside risk once it falls below.
According to Glassnode data reported by Odaily, the $63,000 level is emerging as a key support and battleground zone for Bitcoin (BTC) in the current market. Over the past few weeks, Bitcoin has continued to trade within the $60,000 to $67,000 range, with over 3% of BTC's circulating supply—approximately 515,000 BTC—having a cost basis concentrated near $63,000. Additionally, more than 362,000 BTC is concentrated in the $61,000 area. Glassnode notes that only the $78,000 to $82,000 range currently has a higher supply density than this zone, corresponding to Bitcoin's May cyclical peak.Furthermore, Bitcoin's current price nearly coincides with the 200-week moving average. Glassnode data shows that the 200-week MA currently stands at approximately $63,657, while BTC's price is around $63,822, indicating significant historical accumulation and strong cost support in this area.Looking at the 30-day cumulative Accumulation Trend Score, all types of investors are currently in a net accumulation state, with retail buying momentum being the most pronounced. Meanwhile, whale addresses holding more than 1,000 BTC continue to increase their positions, suggesting that long-term capital is still positioning itself. The $63,000 level has become a critical price band in Bitcoin's short-term market structure, and investor accumulation behavior may provide important reference for future price movements. (CoinDesk)
Odaily News: Analyst “AntiFragile” stated on Platform X that Bitcoin’s (BTC) order book currently shows strong buyer support, with a significant number of patient buy orders concentrated in the range 2%-20% below the current price.AntiFragile noted that these buy orders began appearing as early as early June, representing passive buying demand positioned in advance. If BTC’s price pulls back into these zones, these orders are expected to act as a buffer, reducing market volatility. The current order book structure indicates that some investors are waiting for lower entry prices rather than buying into the uptrend. These long-standing orders may serve as potential support in the event of short-term market corrections.
According to The Block, Bitcoin rose above $65,800 on July 22, hitting a new high in over a month, with a monthly gain of approximately 2%. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows for the sixth consecutive day, with single-day net inflows of $203 million on Tuesday. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded net inflows of $37.5 million on the same day, marking three consecutive days of positive inflows. Analysts have identified the next key resistance level near $68,000 — this price level represents the convergence zone of the short-term holder cost basis and the Q2 opening price, where a large number of trapped buyers will break even, and the first touch is expected to trigger massive selling pressure.
Odaily In May of this year, Bankless founder David Hoffman publicly announced on the X platform that he had liquidated all of his ETH holdings.Due to ETH's recent strong price performance, some community users posted remarks teasing David for "selling ETH at the exact bottom."

Odaily news "On-chain detective" ZachXBT posted in his personal channel, stating that Telegram continues to allow scam advertisements to be displayed to subscribers in his channel, impacting user experience and posing potential security risks.ZachXBT stated that if users are Telegram Premium members and wish to support upgrading his channel, they can help it reach the required level by using the channel's Boost function, thereby unlocking the ability to disable ads. Currently, the channel needs to reach Level 50 to enable the ad-disabling option.ZachXBT has long focused on scams, hacker attacks, and on-chain fund tracking within the crypto industry, and has repeatedly exposed incidents involving phishing attacks, fake projects, and fund theft.This time, he raised concerns about Telegram's advertising mechanism, arguing that the platform allowing scam advertisements to appear in crypto community channels may increase the risk of users encountering malicious links and fraudulent activities.
Odaily news: The Zcash Foundation has announced the release of Zebra 4.5.1 version update to fix a consensus-critical security vulnerability and strongly recommends that all node operators upgrade immediately. The vulnerability, identified as GHSA-2prc-cj5x-4443, involves a sigops (signature operation count) counting error in P2SH transactions, which could lead to potential consensus fork risks. This fix corrects an incomplete patch in the previously released 4.5.0 version, which was just released yesterday.The Zcash development team stated that the issue stems from discrepancies in sigop counting logic between different implementations, which could cause nodes to produce different results when verifying transactions, thereby affecting consensus consistency on the chain. The fix resolves this by reverting and adjusting the Rust implementation logic to ensure alignment with the expected protocol behavior.The Zcash Foundation emphasized that there is currently no workaround for this issue, and upgrading to 4.5.1 is the only method to ensure nodes remain on the correct chain and avoid potential fork risks.
The Zcash Foundation officially announced the release of Zebra 4.4.0, which addresses multiple critical consensus-level security vulnerabilities. All node operators are strongly advised to upgrade immediately. The vulnerabilities include a denial-of-service (DoS) flaw that could permanently halt the discovery of new blocks; a signature operation (sigop) counting error in block validation that may cause consensus divergence; abnormal handling of transparent transaction signature hashes; and a memory allocation amplification attack risk. The Zcash Foundation stated that some of these vulnerabilities could cause Zebra nodes to accept blocks rejected by zcashd, potentially triggering a chain fork. Without timely upgrades, nodes risk interruption of block discovery, consensus forks, and amplified resource consumption. No alternative mitigations are currently available.
