Bybit Suspends ZEC and DASH Trading: What Does It Mean?
Bybit has suspended trading in all ZEC and DASH pairs. Users must withdraw these cryptocurrencies from the exchange by May 28. Is this another blow to privacy coins? Unlikely. The campaign to push privacy coins off cryptocurrency exchanges was more characteristic of early 2024 than early 2025. And this approach has already proven ineffective: * In my article...
The SEC has stated that most memecoins aren't securities
When SEC representatives announced that most meme coins are not securities, many immediately equated this with the SEC dropping legal proceedings against Coinbase, Gemini, MetaMask, OpenSea, Robinhood, and Uniswap. They concluded that the next step would be abandoning claims against Ripple and publicly declaring that neither Ripple nor Ethereum should be considered securities. Such a statement...
The Fear & Greed Index Hits Extreme Lows - Should We Worry?
The popular Fear and Greed Index, published daily on alternative.me, is showing a value that we haven't seen since June 2022: extreme fear at a level of 10. This index serves as a convenient barometer of market emotions. Its main purpose is to help you avoid falling prey to collective sentiment and instead, take advantage of it. There's a well-known...
Why the 'Commission-Free USDT' News Doesn't Add Up
I don't understand why major crypto media outlets are unanimously announcing the upcoming launch of commission-free USDT transfers on the Tron network. In my opinion, this is fake news. The source of these reports is a tweet from Tron founder Justin Sun, where he talks about launching a feature that allows paying gas fees in stablecoin transactions without using TRX...
Are cryptocurrencies truly stateless?
When GMCI launched the GMCI USA index to track crypto projects associated with the US - such as XRP, SOL, DOGE, and ten other assets - I didn't see the point. These cryptocurrencies operate globally, and I couldn't understand their connection to the US. None were created or backed by the US; essentially, their "nationality" seemed artificial. The...
Crypto Exchange Platforms Continue to Block Stolen Ether
Cryptocurrency exchange platforms (both trading exchanges and swapping services) continue to report blockages of ETH stolen from Bybit. At the same time, some companies are refusing to cooperate with Bybit on this matter. Who is right in this situation? Most likely, both sides have valid points. The company refusing to cooperate with Bybit has legitimate reasons. Previously...
Rewarding Content Creators in Web3: The Prospects of Kaito
Last week saw the high-profile launch of KAITO — a token designed to reward content creators on the Kaito platform. The token’s price surprised many when it didn’t drop after the airdrop, despite active sell-offs by major holders, including popular crypto influencers. KAITO/USD price chart after the airdrop.

The most puzzling part of the Bybit hack
In the recent Bybit hack, I noticed something particularly puzzling: even after rumors of a massive unauthorized ETH withdrawal were confirmed, people in the P2P section were still posting offers to buy ETH at near-market prices. Think about it: * Everyone knew there wasn't enough ETH on the exchange (most of it had been stolen). * Everyone understood...
Coinbase and Kraken are reportedly in talks to acquire Deribit
According to Solid Intel's recent post, Coinbase and Kraken are reportedly in talks to acquire Deribit. If true, the price tag must be astronomical. I've never been a big fan of CEXes. I don't like how they can freeze your crypto on the flimsiest of pretexts and then make impossible demands before returning it. (This is probably why...
