Franklin Templeton US Spot Bitcoin ETF Performance Since Launch. Source: SoSo Value　　That is the more important institutional shift. Pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, and large allocators often need more than spot exposure. They need portfolio construction, risk management, liquidity management, and managers who can evaluate crypto markets with the same discipline used in other asset classes.　　Franklin Templeton has also been building internal crypto capability since 2018. The company says its digital asset work combines tokenomics research, data science, and technical expertise. The firm has also built a team that includes blockchain-focused investment professionals, node operators, and digital asset specialists.　　BENJI Becomes Core Infrastructure　　The second pillar of Franklin Templetons nomination is BENJI.　　The Franklin OnChain US Government Money Fund, or FOBXX, launched in 2021. Each share is represented by one BENJI token, and the fund‘s transfer agent maintains the official share ownership record through Franklin Templeton’s blockchain-integrated Benji platform.　　FOBXX was the first US-registered mutual fund to use blockchain-integrated technology to process transactions and record share ownership. Franklin Templetons own fund page states that FOBXX invests at least 99.5% of its assets in US government securities, cash, and repurchase agreements collateralized by US government securities or cash. The fund reported $843.74 million in total

BNB Technical Analysis Apr 29

Tech　　BNB Technical Analysis Apr 29　　BNB, increasing downward pressure on the daily chart and heading towards the $611 support zone, has entered a critical testing phase under the shadow of Bitcoins sideways movement on altcoins; breaking this level could open the door to a deep correction.　　Market Outlook and Current Situation　　BNB is trading at $613.27 with a 1.72% drop over the last 24 hours, as the risk-off sentiment observed across the market has also engulfed altcoins. On the daily timeframe, the price squeezed between $610.26 – $629.61 is struggling to gain upward momentum despite $357.72 million in trading volume. The dominance of the downward trend reinforces short-term bearish signals from the price failing to close above EMA20 ($624.81). In this context, while BNB has strong fundamentals as a utility token within the Binance ecosystem, it is clearly facing uncertainty in the macro crypto market.　　Bitcoins sideways consolidation around $75,473 across the market holds both opportunities and traps for altcoins. BNB has suffered over 5% losses in recent weeks, moving within a downtrend channel on the weekly chart. The slight decrease in volume indicates buyers have not yet entered; however, as detailed on our BNB Spot Analysis pages, ecosystem updates could provide long-term positive

Silver Forecast: XAG/USD retakes $72; downside risk remains

Silver is a precious metal highly traded among investors. It has been historically used as a store of value and a medium of exchange. Although less popular than Gold, traders may turn to Silver to diversify their investment portfolio, for its intrinsic value or as a potential hedge during high-inflation periods. Investors can buy physical Silver, in coins or in bars, or trade it through vehicles such as Exchange Traded Funds, which track its price on international markets.　　Silver prices can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can make Silver price escalate due to its safe-haven status, although to a lesser extent than Golds. As a yieldless asset, Silver tends to rise with lower interest rates. Its moves also depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAG/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Silver at bay, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to propel prices up. Other factors such as investment demand, mining supply – Silver is much more abundant than Gold – and recycling rates can also affect prices.　　Silver is widely used in industry, particularly in sectors such as

Strike CEO Jack Mallers announced a series of product updates and strategic moves Wednesday, including the launch of lending proof-of-reserves, a new “volatility-proof” bitcoin-backed loan structure built with Tether, and a $2.1 billion credit facility.　　He also said he supports a proposal by Tether Investments to merge Strike with Twenty-One Capital and bitcoin miner Elektron Energy.　　Mallers said Strikes bitcoin-backed loan and line-of-credit business has grown since launch, with users drawn to the ability to borrow against bitcoin rather than sell it.　　He described bitcoin as a savings account for many customers and said Strike cut its rate tiers across the board.

Amazon Q1 earnings beat raises questions on Nvidias market cap lead

Tech　　Amazon Q1 earnings beat raises questions on Nvidias market cap lead　　Amazon‘s Q1 2026 earnings beat expectations with an adjusted EPS of $2.78 against a $1.63 estimate, raising questions about NVIDIA’s hold on the largest-company-by-market-cap title. The April 30 market prices NVIDIA at 99.8% YES.　　Market reaction　　The earnings beat hasnt moved the April 30 market, where odds have held steady over the past 24 hours. The June 30 market sits lower at 87% YES, pricing in more room for a leadership change over the longer window.　　Why it matters　　Amazons $2.78 EPS on a $1.63 estimate is a 70% beat. If that translates into sustained stock gains, it narrows the market cap gap with NVIDIA. The April 30 market trades $55,014 in daily USDC volume, and it takes only $88 to move the price by 5 points, meaning even a modest wave of NO bets could cause a visible swing. The June 30 market is thicker, requiring $13,111 for a comparable move.　　What to watch　　At 2¢ for a YES share on April 30, a NO outcome would pay 50x. For that to happen, Amazon would need rapid, sustained stock appreciation over the next day, possibly driven by analyst upgrades or broader rotation out of semiconductor

CFTC Sues Wisconsin Over Prediction Market Regulation Clash

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has filed a lawsuit against Wisconsin, escalating efforts to assert federal jurisdiction over prediction markets. This marks the agencys fifth such legal challenge against a U.S. state, following similar actions against New York, Arizona, Connecticut, and Illinois in recent weeks.　　The dispute stems from Wisconsins lawsuits against five major platforms—Kalshi, Polymarket, Crypto.com, Robinhood, and Coinbase—alleging that their event-based contracts constitute illegal gambling under state law. Wisconsin argues these platforms require state gaming licenses to operate legally. In response, the CFTC claims exclusive authority over these markets under federal law, categorizing them as designated contract markets regulated by the agency.　　“States cannot circumvent the clear directive of Congress,” said CFTC Chairman Michael Selig in a statement accompanying the lawsuit. The agency filed its complaint in federal court on Tuesday, supported by the Justice Departments Civil Division, seeking to block Wisconsin from enforcing its gambling laws on federally regulated platforms.　　At the heart of the conflict is the classification of prediction markets offering event-based contracts, including those tied to sports outcomes. While state authorities view these as gambling, the CFTC and the platforms maintain they are financial instruments overseen exclusively by federal regulators. The CFTC is asking the
