The contraction of the crypto market no longer only affects investors. It now threatens the financial structure of the main trading platforms. eToro provided concrete evidence by publishing its quarterly results on August 11, 2026. Indeed, the decline in crypto trading volume contrasts with the increased interest in stocks and other more conventional investments. This transition forces the major FinTech company to quickly strengthen its diversification while revealing the new emerging power dynamics in the online brokerage field.

BlackRock opens the floodgates on its Bitcoin ETF. Twenty-five million? That was yesterday. Now one million will do. The whales are circling.

Three influential analysts believe that bitcoin has found its floor after falling below 60,000 dollars in July. The price returning around 65,000 dollars fuels their optimism. However, market history and the weight of leverage do not yet allow shouting victory.

Three years of waiting, $19 million down the drain — one Ethereum whale finally cracks. Meanwhile, others are stacking in silence. Who's right? The market holds its breath.

Bitget has upgraded BGBTC, its yield-bearing Bitcoin asset, with daily BTC rewards, faster large-volume redemptions and stronger risk controls. The exchange has also selected Chainlink CCIP as its main cross-chain infrastructure. The move places BGBTC at the center of a wider shift: Bitcoin is increasingly expected to remain liquid, productive and usable across several financial activities.

The tokenized asset markets reach a new milestone with a strong increase in trading volumes. Perpetual contracts backed by stocks and commodities now compete with Bitcoin-related products on Hyperliquid and Binance. This evolution illustrates a gradual diversification of trading on specialized platforms. The latest data also show that this momentum continues, driven by growing demand for continuously accessible trading instruments.

Bitget has integrated TradingView into its commodity CFD platform. The update combines professional charting, market monitoring and order execution within one screen. It also gives practical substance to the exchange’s ambition to connect crypto and traditional markets through a unified trading environment.

Bitcoin remains under pressure despite a visible return of institutional investors. American spot ETFs attracted $233.1 million in one session, their best result in over three weeks. This demand, however, did not prevent BTC from falling back below $64,000.

RealStocks' first-month data shows that users are moving beyond trading a single popular asset. Instead, they are trading different products and instruments to build broader exposure around market themes.

Central banks purchased 288.9 tonnes of gold in the second quarter of 2026. This is 62% more than in the same period in 2025, when net purchases capped at 177.9 tonnes. Poland and China lead this movement, and the World Gold Council sees no sign of slowing down.

Robinhood has just recorded the best quarter in its history. The platform reaches $1.31 billion in revenue and $573 million in net profit. However, its crypto activity continues to lose ground.

A trading bot is only as good as its inputs. An AI agent is only as good as its tools. Both depend on the API layer underneath. Automated systems need four things in production. Data to read and signals to act on. Rails to move assets and a venue to trade. No single provider covers all four. Cointribune's ultimate developer and AI agent guide ranked general-purpose providers. A separate guide to EVM and Solana infrastructure covers the RPC layer. This list is narrower. It ranks what a bot or agent calls in production.

US spot Bitcoin ETFs once again record net inflows. Ethereum ETFs, on the other hand, switch to outflows. Figures and scenarios.

The market for derivatives linked to digital assets continues to evolve with a new initiative from Binance. The platform is now expanding its offering by launching options on gold and silver after the strong performance of its perpetual futures contracts on these metals. This new step meets sustained user demand and marks an evolution of its regulated product offering while maintaining integrated access to commodity markets from its ecosystem.

Bitcoin takes a hit, ETFs are bleeding, volumes are tanking. But Morgan Stanley isn't done yet. Is the crypto king losing its crown?

In my analysis last week, I warned that Bitcoin's bullish move would only be valid if the price managed to consolidate above the daily resistance and confirm a breakout above the 200-week EMA. I also warned investors not to rely too heavily on the ETF inflows, as although purchases continued on a daily basis, their volume was gradually decreasing.

The cryptocurrency market continues to lose several historic platforms. Within a few months, Bit.com and then BitMEX announced their gradual disappearance. Now, BitMart also confirms the cessation of its activities according to a specific schedule. This new closure directly affects the users of the exchange, invited to close their positions and withdraw their assets before the different deadlines set by the platform. This succession of announcements marks a new phase for several industry players.

The U.S. House of Representatives has taken a new step in regulating investments made by lawmakers. Representatives passed a bill that now prohibits members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children from buying publicly traded stocks, while allowing them to keep and then sell stocks they already own. This decision opens a new debate on conflict of interest prevention before the Senate examines the bill.

Gold rebounds after a 26% drop. Fund managers consider it undervalued for the first time since March 2023. Complete analysis.

Bitget has launched what it calls the first TradFi Quanto Perpetual Futures product, allowing traders to access non-USD stocks using USDT without currency conversion. The first contract tracks Hong Kong-listed AI company MiniMax. For Bitget, this is not just another derivatives launch. It is a sharper step toward blending crypto infrastructure with traditional financial markets.

BitMEX will permanently close its doors on September 23, 2026, after eleven years of activity. The crypto platform, long associated with the rise of derivatives products and extreme leverage, now asks its users to close their positions and withdraw their assets. Its exit marks the end of a symbol, but also a brutal change in a market that has become more demanding, more liquid, and more regulated.

Bitget has moved into the top tier of TradFi-linked crypto trading after generating nearly $70 billion in TradFi perpetual volume in Q2 2026. The TokenInsight report shows a clear shift: tokenized stocks, commodities and real-world assets are no longer side experiments for exchanges. They are becoming a serious battleground for liquidity, market share and product depth.

Grayscale wants to launch a Worldcoin ETF, but the token has already crashed 97 %. Is this a bold move or a costly mistake waiting to happen ?

As I indicated in my analysis last week, if Bitcoin managed to close above our daily resistance zone, the next target would be between 68,000 and 70,000 dollars. Today, that is exactly what we are seeing. The price now moves above this resistance with a return of buying pressure. It is a first positive signal, but it is still too early to talk about a real trend change.

Are Shiba Inu investors losing interest? Data indicates a possible change. SHIB movements on trading platforms show a long-term decline in activity on the memecoin. Thus, routine trading patterns lead to capital shifts and can affect the memecoin's price.

Bitget has launched what it calls the industry’s first Cross-Asset Unified Account, allowing users to use 100 tokenized US stocks as margin inside a single capital pool. The move pushes Bitget further beyond a standard crypto exchange model. It also strengthens its strategy to connect crypto and traditional finance inside one trading environment.
