The Pi Network Coin price is crashing again, and investors are worried. The token has dropped from $0.205 last week to around $0.158 today. This means the price has fallen about 23% in just a few days. It is now at its lowest level since February 14. The fall is part of a wider crypto market crash. Bitcoin dropped below $65,000, and many other altcoins also lost value. When major coins fall, smaller tokens like Pi often drop faster. This creates panic among traders. Another key reason is profit-taking. Pi Network Coin had surged by around 60% earlier this month.…

Bitcoin may fall further and retest the $60,000 level after breaking below the important $65,000 support zone, analysts say. The drop comes as global economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions shake investor confidence. Bitcoin was trading around $64,846, down 4.6% in 24 hours.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index dropped to just 5, placing it deep in the “Extreme Fear” zone. This shows investors are worried and many are selling their holdings. Analysts say…
Japanese financial giant SBI Holdings has launched a new blockchain-based bond worth 10 billion yen ($64.5 million), offering investors fixed interest along with XRP crypto rewards. The new product, called SBI START Bonds, will be recorded and managed using blockchain technology. The bonds run for three years and offer an annual interest rate between 1.85% and 2.45%, with payments made twice a year. What makes these bonds different is the XRP bonus.

Blockchain analytics firm Elliptic has identified a group of Russia-linked cryptocurrency platforms that are helping users move funds beyond Western sanctions. The report found five crypto exchanges connected to Russia that continue to process large transactions. Only one of them, Bitpapa, is officially under US sanctions. However, several others have still handled funds linked to restricted entities. According to the report, nearly 10% of Bitpapa’s outgoing transactions were connected to sanctioned targets. The platform also rotated wallet addresses often, which made it harder for authorities to track activity. Another exchange, ABCeX, has processed at least $11 billion in crypto transactions.…
Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have now recorded their fifth straight week of money leaving the market, showing signs that institutional demand is slowing down. Data from SoSoValue shows investors pulled about $316 million from US spot Bitcoin ETFs during the week ending February 20. This brings total withdrawals to around $3.8 billion since the outflow streak began in January. Most of the selling happened during the middle of the week. Around $105 million left on Tuesday, followed by $133 million on Wednesday and $166 million on Thursday. A small recovery came on Friday, when $88 million flowed back into…
Bitcoin (BTC) continues to trade in the mid-to-high $60,000s after a volatile start to 2026. Prices have recovered slightly from recent lows near $60,000 but remain far below late-2025 highs above $130,000. The market is closely watching the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (Clarity Act, H.R. 3633). The bill aims to define clear rules for digital assets, distinguishing between securities and commodities, while expanding oversight for the CFTC. Passed by the House in July 2025, the bill is now with the Senate Banking Committee. Recent White House-hosted talks between regulators, banks, and crypto firms have renewed optimism. Key sticking points,…
XRP price has remained stuck in a tight range despite strong growth across its network. The cryptocurrency was trading around $1.42 on Sunday, down about 15 percent from its highest level this month. The lack of price movement comes as the wider crypto market slows down. Bitcoin has stayed near $68,000 in recent weeks, while Ethereum remains below $2,000. This has caused many altcoins, including XRP, to move sideways. Despite the price stagnation, XRP’s network activity is rising. Its real-world asset (RWA) tokenization ecosystem has grown rapidly. The total value locked in XRP’s RWA network jumped by 23 percent in…
Large Bitcoin holders, known as whales, are increasing their activity as the crypto market continues to struggle. According to blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant, whale deposits on exchanges have reached their highest level in years. The report shows that the exchange whale ratio has climbed to 0.64, the highest level since 2015. This means that 64% of Bitcoin deposits on exchanges are now coming from the biggest investors, suggesting whales may be preparing to sell. At the same time, the average Bitcoin deposit size has risen to 1.58 BTC, the highest since the last bear market in 2022. Analysts say this…
Ethereum is preparing a major upgrade that aims to make the network more resistant to censorship. The upgrade, called Hegota, is expected to launch later in 2026 and has strong support from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin. The key feature of the upgrade is something called Fork-Choice Enforced Inclusion Lists, or FOCIL. This proposal will require validators to include valid transactions instead of ignoring them, helping ensure that Ethereum remains open and fair. Developers say the change will strengthen Ethereum’s core principle of decentralization. If a validator refuses to include valid transactions, the network can reject their block and move to…
