US senator calls for ban on elected officials issuing memecoins

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, one of the US lawmakers behind negotiations for a digital asset market structure bill in Congress, has proposed barring elected officials and the president from issuing or sponsoring their own tokens, citing President Donald Trump‘s and First Lady Melania Trump’s memecoins.　　In a Friday notice, Gillibrand said that Congress should support measures barring elected officials and their spouses from “issuing or sponsoring their own digital assets.” The New York lawmaker said that the proposed restriction would include any US president and their spouse, but did not specifically mention extending the provision to the office of the vice president or other members of their families.　　“This is a commonsense requirement that should get broad bipartisan support – public officials and their spouses should not be issuing memecoins,” said Gillibrand. “We cannot let self-dealing destroy an opportunity to strengthen consumer protections, crack down on illicit finance, and expand economic opportunity for the millions of Americans our financial system has left behind.”Source: Kirsten Gillibrand　　Gillibrand is one of the lawmakers behind negotiations regarding the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act in the Senate, legislation which has faced delays due to concerns about ethics, tokenization and stablecoin rewards.

Tim Draper denies moving Bitcoin, reiterates $250,000 BTC prediction

Billionaire investor and longtime Bitcoin bull Tim Draper has denied moving his Bitcoin after blockchain analysts linked him to a large BTC transfer to Coinbase Prime.　　“Havent touched my BTC,” Draper told Cointelegraph on Friday, adding that he still expects Bitcoin to reach $250,000 within one year.　　The statement came after blockchain analytics platform Lookonchain reported Friday that a wallet “possibly linked” to Draper had transferred 1,000 Bitcoin worth about $62 million to Coinbase Prime, citing data from Arkham.　　The case highlights both the growing role of blockchain analytics in tracking large crypto transfers and the challenges of independently confirming wallet ownership.　　Draper bought nearly 30,000 BTC in 2014　　Draper is best known in the crypto community as one of Bitcoins earliest high-profile investors, having won a US Marshals Service auction for nearly 30,000 Bitcoin seized by US authorities from Silk Road-related holdings in 2014.　　According to Forbes, Draper paid about $18.7 million, or roughly $632 per Bitcoin, for the holdings, now worth about $1.9 billion.　　Arkham labels the wallet involved in the transfer as “Tim Draper？” through its AI-powered entity prediction feature. The feature assigns lower-confidence attributions intended to provide clues about the possible owner of a wallet address.Source: Arkham　　The wallets transaction history shows several interactions

Revoluts $1.2M AVAX sale raises questions. Why do THESE metrics favor bulls？

Revolut sold 177.62K $AVAX worth about $1.2 million through Coinbase, raising questions about corporate balance-sheet positioning.　　The transaction suggested that some firms could be reallocating capital, realizing gains, or reducing crypto exposure as part of broader treasury strategies. However, one sale did not establish a wider trend across corporate holders.　　Instead, it highlighted that treasury management decisions could introduce fresh supply into the market without reflecting a broader shift in investor sentiment.　　If more companies follow a similar approach, exchange-bound transfers could increase and gradually influence available spot liquidity.　　Even so, additional corporate activity would be necessary before concluding that balance-sheet repositioning has become a sustained institutional trend.　　Exchange demand continued absorbing fresh supply　　Spot market activity painted a more balanced picture despite Revoluts high-profile transaction.　　Exchange Netflows stood at -$1.04 million, showing that withdrawals still exceeded deposits across tracked exchanges.　　This reading suggested buyers continued removing $AVAX from exchanges instead of preparing tokens for immediate sale.　　However, the negative netflow also indicated that Revoluts transaction did not trigger widespread exchange inflows from other large holders.　　Such behavior reduced concerns that a wave of corporate selling had already emerged.　　Even though one notable sale reached Coinbase, the broader spot market absorbed available supply without producing a meaningful shift in exchange balances.　　If

‘Chicago’s last trade？ – CFTC Chair warns against new 0.2% crypto tax

Illinois 0.2% blanket tax for every crypto transaction, passed in July as part of the states fiscal budget, continues to elicit backlash.　　Mike Selig, chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), slammed the state lawmakers. He warned that the law could make Chicago lose its financial position.　　In a recent opinion piece, Selig argued there was no need for the punitive crypto tax law. He said the federal government was already advancing the more measured CLARITY Act.　　Yet Illinois lawmakers decided they know better than the federal lawmakers who have been working on delivering clarity to crypto asset markets for years.　　Source: X　　The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the worlds largest derivatives exchange, is based in Illinois. It also offers 24/7 crypto trading.　　Selig added that such a move would make investors flee the state, making it Chicago‘s ’last trade.　　As blockchain technology continues to transform our financial markets, the choice to loot crypto wallets rather than grow the state economy with pro-innovation policies may go down in history as Chicagos last trade.　　Will the federal crypto tax law delay？　　Coinbase‘s Legal Chief Paul Grewal also echoed Selig’s stance, calling the 0.2% tax law one of the dumb policies.　　Just when it seemed that we have enough dumb tax

Hows India Looking in the Global Crypto Regulation Race？

India remains behind major markets in the crypto regulation race, but it has not ignored the sector. The country has built tax, anti-money laundering, and monitoring rules while avoiding a full law for virtual digital assets.　　That cautious model is drawing attention after Coinbase returned to India. The comeback has highlighted the market‘s appeal and the limits of India’s unclear policy approach.　　Coinbase Return Tests India Crypto Rules　　At India Blockchain Week, Coinbase Asia-Pacific director John OLoghlen called India a “North Star” for the exchange. The remark came as Coinbase outlined its renewed market push.　　Coinbase secured registration with Indias Financial Intelligence Unit in early 2025. It reopened user registrations by October. By December, it had restored services for retail investors.　　The platform also introduced IMPS-enabled INR deposits. The feature allows compliant Indian rupee deposits into the crypto ecosystem and gives traders a local currency route.　　India Central Bank Flags Crypto Risks　　However, Indias central bank remains opposed to legalising crypto. The Economic Times reported that the Reserve Bank of India told a parliamentary panel that virtual digital assets are a threat to an emerging economy like India.　　The RBI compared India with other markets. It told the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance that China and Qatar have

Bitcoin under pressure as $30M from ‘lost’ drug dealer stash hits Coinbase – Details

The Irish drug dealer Clifton Collins is back in the news after Irish authorities recovered more of his seized Bitcoin. Collins acquired approximately 6,000 Bitcoin between 2011 and 2012.　　In 2017, he was jailed after a drug-related arrest. Before the arrest, he printed his seed phrase and hid it inside a fishing rod.　　However, the landlord later cleared the house and dumped his belongings in a landfill, including the private keys.

Bitcoin eyes macro jump to $70K after drop below $60k – Whats next for BTC？

The price of Bitcoin [$BTC] recently dropped from $60,000 to $58,000. However, at press time it was trading at $61,540.15, following a 2.01% increase in the past 24 hours. But a month-long decline of 8% is now raising concerns for the king coin.　　Consequently, given that the RSI was above 55 at press time and the MACD was flashing green bars, the price analysis suggested that bulls were strong. However, if looked at closely, the bull signs were not forceful, as the Signal line and MACD lines were almost joining.　　Additionally, Bollinger Bands expanding following a squeeze indicated the presence of upcoming volatility.　　Source: Trading ViewBitcoins on-chain metrics spark concerns　　Still, instead of being completely pessimistic, CryptoQuants most recent CME Bitcoin futures data suggested a market reset.　　Source: CryptoQuant　　According to the chart, the net long exposure of asset managers has decreased to $800 million, the lowest since the introduction of U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs.

TRON Rolls Out NIST‑Standard Post‑Quantum Algorithms on Nile to Prepare for Quantum Computing

TRON activated build GreatVoyage-v4.8.2-PQ1-build1 on its Nile testnet, with support for the Falcon-512 and ML-DSA-44 algorithms.The update covers transaction signing, block production, P2P handshakes and smart contract verification within the TVM.Migration to the mainnet is projected for the third quarter of 2026, subject to approval through on-chain governance.　　TRONbecame one of the first blockchain networks to actively upgrade its native cryptographic foundations to address the advance of quantum computing. The network announced the deployment of build GreatVoyage-v4.8.2-PQ1-build1on its Niletestnet, a mandatory update for nodes on that network that introduces support for two post-quantum signature schemesstandardized by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST): Falcon-512 and ML-DSA-44.　　The scope of the update is quite considerable. It covers transaction signing, block production signaturesby super representatives, handshakesbetween P2P nodes and signature verification in smart contractswithin the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM).　　However, the new functionalities do not activate automatically: they require a governance proposal to go through the network committees on-chain processbefore any transition to the mainnet, currently projected for the third quarter of 2026.　　TRON is taking the next step toward long-term blockchain security.　　The Nile Testnets post-quantum signature upgrade brings NIST-standardized quantum-resistant signatures to public blockchain infrastructure.　　More details from @Crypto_Briefing ????　　— TRON DAO (@trondao) July 2,
