The SEC brings new clarifications to the crypto market. In an FAQ published on September 25, its staff details the treatment of tokens, liquid staking, buyback programs and promises made by issuers. A crypto asset that is not itself a security can still be sold under an investment contract. It all depends in particular on what the issuer promises to buyers.
The federal appeals court for the 6th circuit ruled Friday in favor of Ohio and Tennessee against Kalshi. States can apply their sports betting laws to the platform's contracts, a second loss on appeal bringing the case closer to the Supreme Court.
Claude's exclusion from the Pentagon's systems and contracts has just been validated by a U.S. court of appeals. This new setback weakens Anthropic ahead of an IPO that would value it at $2 trillion, but it does not close the legal battle.
Up to €400 offered at registration, 8% bonus on USDT deposits until October 8, 2026, and, since Tuesday, September 22, account protection up to €100,000 (€250,000 for VIP 1 to 3, €500,000 for VIP 4 and above) with no subscription or activation fees: OKX aligns three arguments for anyone still hesitating to open an account. The first is a welcome gift, the second a limited-time offer, the third, OKX Shield, a new feature that reimburses if a third party takes control of your account and withdraws funds, and it's worth looking at exactly what it covers before activating.
On 1 April 2026, the Akash network reported that its customers had passed 5 million dollars in cumulative spending on compute, real money paying for real processing power on a blockchain marketplace. That figure captures the shift of the year: in 2026 the fusion of artificial intelligence and crypto stopped being a story the sector told itself and became a layer other things are built on. AI-focused crypto tokens are worth roughly 21 billion dollars as of August 2026, and 40 cents of every venture dollar invested in crypto companies in 2025 went to firms building both AI and crypto, more than double the share of a year earlier. The pitch is no longer that a token will moon; it is that AI is concentrating inside a handful of very large companies, and open networks can offer an alternative for compute, for training, for payments and for the agents that will transact on-chain. This article maps how that infrastructure actually works, layer by layer, and, just as important, what each part does not prove.
Bitcoin records its second-best Q3 performance in history with +43.5%, while Ethereum explodes its record with +71%. A quarter driven by strong ETF demand and controlled profit-taking. At the same time, the gold-bitcoin rotation theory reemerges… coincidence?
Bitcoin enters October around 85000 dollars after gaining nearly 9% in September. Its seasonal history and several on-chain indicators support the "Uptober" scenario, but profit-taking is already reaching an unprecedented level in 2026.
Bitcoin and the US dollar rise simultaneously. Since early August, BTC has gone from around 63,000 dollars to nearly 87,000 dollars before returning to about 84,600 dollars. However, the DXY also follows an upward slope. Falling to around 98.4 in early September, the dollar index now trades above 101. An unusual situation for two assets whose movements have often been opposite.
The crypto market returns to a key level as the bitcoin price tests a major resistance again. Jurrien Timmer, global macroeconomics director at Fidelity, believes a four-year bullish cycle could be underway. Nine months earlier, he considered 2026 a year of respite after a down phase. His chart places the 80,000-dollar threshold at the center of the scenario, with a projection toward 100,000 dollars in case of a breakout.
Jean Philanthrope takes social media by storm as questions over his identity grow and his crypto briefly reaches a $12 million valuation.
