2023-11-27 18:58:26 Binance's Changpeng 'CZ' Zhao Is a Manageable Flight Risk: U.S. DOJ

The U.S. Department of Justice doesn't want Changpeng 'CZ' Zhao locked up until sentencing, but it doesn't want him to leave the United States either, arguing in a new filing that he's a "flight risk that could be managed."
"The reality is that the top-end of the Guidelines range may be as high as 18 months, and the United States is free to argue for any sentence up to the statutory maximum of ten years," the filing reads.
Late last week, CZ's counsel argued that the very fact he – a non-U.S. citizen holding UAE and Canadian passports – voluntarily entered the U.S. to appear before a court represents that he's not a flight risk.

2023-11-24 18:11:55 Bitcoin's Hashrate War Between Antpool and Foundry Intensifies as BTC ETF Nears

Bitcoin miners Antpool and Foundry dominate Bitcoin mining hashrate. Between them, the two own a total of 53.4% of the world's hashing power.
In the past few weeks, Antpool has been pulling ahead of its biggest competitor, adding significant power to its hashing capabilities.
"China is aggressively mining ahead of the approval of a Bitcoin ETF", Bradley Park, a Web3 analyst at CryptoQuant, wrote to CoinDesk in a note.
"As the Bitcoin halving nears, I anticipate a competitive surge between China and the US in mining machine productivity," he continued. "This is because the unit cost of mining Bitcoin is likely to escalate due to increasing power expenses and rising mining difficulty."

2023-11-10 13:29:35 Ethereum Fees Briefly Jumped to $100 After BlackRock’s ETH ETF Filing

Bitcoin's 25-delta one-month call-put skew, which assesses the relative price of calls versus puts expiring in four weeks, has risen above 10%, reaching the highest since April 2021, according to data tracked by Amberdata.

Trust Wallet's native token (TWT) fell 7% after Binance, the exchange that acquired Trust Wallet in 2018, released its own competing Web3 wallet.
The wallet was acquired by Binance in 2018 in a deal that included a mixture of cash, Binance stock and a portion of BNB tokens, according to TechCrunch. The value of BNB in July 2018 was $14.80, now trading at $244.
TWT token experienced a positive week before Binance’s release, rising by more than 60% since last Wednesday. Five days ago, Binance announced the listing of TWT futures on its exchange, which saw its daily volume increase from $80 million to around $476 million on Monday.
When asked what role Trust Wallet will have alongside the release of Binance’s wallet, a Binance spokesperson did not immediately respond.
