From Bat-Signal to Bitcoin: Projecting 'Orange Pill' on banks as EU drives crypto regulation

The Bitcoin logo lights up on the European Central Bank building in Frankfurt as Bitcoiners urge bankers to ‘study Bitcoin.’ “The signal goes on, and he shows up. That's the way it's been. That's the way it will be.” Whenever Gotham faces an existential threat, the Bat-Signal lights up the night sky. In the DC Comics universe, Batman always shows up to save the day when he’s called upon. Bitcoiners in Germany employed a similar tactic this week, emblazoning the preeminent crypto currency’s logo with a message to ‘study Bitcoin’ on the side of the European Central Bank building in Frankfurt. The images were shared widely across social media, with notable Bitcoin (BTC) proponents and various company profiles lauding the display. #Bitcoin looks good on the ECB building pic.twitter.com/k8odYEpAZd — Alistair Milne (@alistairmilne) March 30, 2023 A dose of the proverbial ‘Orange Pill’ is particularly pertinent given that the global banking sector has been under the spotlight ...

USDT Remains 'Un-Tethered' Against USDC and BUSD

The banking crisis that gripped the United States, had a domino effect on stablecoins, particularly on Circle’s USDC. Investors flocked to rival stablecoin Tether (USDT) as USDC’s value fell below the $1 mark. Although the asset has regained its dollar peg, the market cap of the project has significantly decreased. USDC is not the only stablecoin to face issues. In mid-February 2023, Binance’s BUSD stablecoin issued by Paxos saw the end of its issuance. The U.S. Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC) cited Paxos Trust for failing to declare the Binance stablecoin as a security. BUSD has been identified by the SEC as an unregistered security, with all the potential legal ramifications that could ensue. The New York Department of Financial Services ordered Paxos Trust Co. to stop printing any more BUSD. With two large players in the stablecoin industry out of the way, Tether ( USDT ) has managed to attract a significant clientele from both platforms. According to data from CryptoS...

Image
Crypto analyst Scott Melker talked about his journey as a trader and how he found the crypto space while working as a DJ. Scott Melker, commonly known in the crypto space as “The Wolf of All Streets,” tells the story of how he went from performing very poorly trading stocks and mutual funds to becoming one of the most-followed crypto analysts in the industry.  In the latest episode of Cointelegraph’s Crypto Stories, Melker narrates the tale of how the name The Wolf of All Streets came about.
