George Santos has settled CFTC case over Kalshi prediction market trades by accepting penalties and a three-year trading ban after regulators found he made misleading public statements while betting on his attendance at President Donald Trumps State of the Union address.　　According to a July 31 order from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), former U.S. Representative George Santos must return $17,569.98 in trading gains, pay a $17,500 civil monetary penalty, comply with a cease-and-desist order, and stay away from trading on any CFTC-registered entity for three years after settling allegations tied to trades on prediction market platform Kalshi.　　The settlement closes an investigation that began earlier this year after Kalshi referred Santos‘ trading activity to regulators. While Santos accepted the settlement, the order states that he neither admitted nor denied the agency’s findings or legal conclusions.　　CFTC says Santos traded both sides of Kalshi market　　Regulators said Santos opened a Kalshi account on Feb. 11, roughly four months after President Donald Trump commuted his prison sentence.

August Crypto Market Calendar: Will the “July Up, August Down” Curse Return? Will BTC Start with “5”

Bitcoin closed July with an approximate 7.26% gain (according to Binance data), injecting a much-needed boost of confidence into a market that had remained sluggish for an extended period. However, as the calendar turns to August, a long-standing “curse” in the crypto market begins to resurface — August has historically been one of Bitcoins worst-performing months. As shown below:　　Summary:August has historically been one of Bitcoins weakest-performing months. Over the past 13 years, BTC recorded 5 monthly gains and 8 monthly declines in August. The median return was -6.99%, making August the only month with a negative median return among all calendar months.　　Looking back at historical data, July has long been regarded as one of Bitcoin‘s stronger-performing months, often featuring a pattern of an early-month pullback followed by a rapid recovery. However, for investors, the key question is: after July’s rally, will August become a month of profit-taking and market correction？　　A market saying that has circulated for years is: “July pumps, August dumps.”　　Will this seasonal pattern repeat itself in 2026？ Can Bitcoin continue pushing toward new highs, or will it face another round of deep correction？　　The more direct question is: By the end of August, will Bitcoin hold above the $50,000

Galaxy estimates Coldcard exploit may have stolen up to 2,055 Bitcoin

Galaxy Research has estimated that losses tied to the Coldcard hardware wallet vulnerability have reached 1,596 Bitcoin across confirmed attack waves and could climb to about 2,055 BTC, or nearly $130 million, if a suspected fourth wave is verified.　　Galaxy Research said in a post published Monday on X that it has identified 1,596 BTC stolen from 7,300 addresses across three confirmed waves of attacks, along with 14 smaller security incidents linked to the Coldcard seed-generation flaw.　　The research firm said its latest estimate excludes a fourth suspected attack wave because it has not yet received enough confirmation from affected wallet owners. If the additional activity is validated, the total would rise to 2,055 BTC, valued at about $130 million at current prices.　　Earlier blockchain analysis from Galaxy had estimated roughly 1,815.75 BTC moving across four observed waves, but the firm emphasized at the time that the figures came from on-chain analysis rather than confirmed victim reports. The latest update narrows confirmed losses while keeping the larger estimate tied to the still-unverified fourth wave.　　Coldcard attack investigation remains active　　Galaxy said it has identified what it believes is a fourth coordinated wave of theft but is still waiting for victim confirmation before adding those addresses

Tyler Williams exits Treasury as CLARITY stalls

Tyler Williams, one of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessents senior digital asset advisers, left the U.S. Treasury Department on July 31 as Congress struggled to advance the CLARITY Act before its August recess.　　Bessent confirmed the departure in a statement reported by Punchbowl News on Aug. 3.

CLARITY Act failure could send crypto valuations lower: Bernstein

The odds of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Acts (CLARITY) passage are dwindling as the US Senate is scheduled to begin summer recess at the end of this week, threatening another leg down for cryptocurrency valuations, according to wealth manager Bernstein.　　Bernstein said that the Senates failure to pass the legislation could trigger an immediate negative “industry knee-jerk reaction,” which may result in another leg down for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.　　“From a tactical standpoint, we expect the crypto market to bottom and start showing momentum towards late Q3 and early Q4 prior to the mid-terms,” Bernstein analysts wrote in a Monday report shared with Cointelegraph.　　At the same time, however, the analysts said that Senate failure to pass the legislation may bring more proactive policy support from regulators, including the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which may accelerate rulemaking initiatives under Project Crypto.　　Project Crypto is a regulatory initiative first announced by SEC Chairman Paul Atkins in July 2025, which was later expanded into a joint staff initiative between the SEC and CFTC in September 2025. The initiative aims to create a workable regulatory framework for digital assets using existing agency authority while Congress

Bitcoin, ether decline as Coldcard exploit enters a fifth day

SummaryBitcoin and ether fell as the $114 million Coldcard hardware wallet hack shook confidence in self-custody and pushed some holders back to exchanges.Derivatives markets showed mixed signals, with BTC futures open interest at a one-month high, a slightly bearish long-short skew, and options volatility steady as call bets cluster around $68,000 and $70,000.NEAR Protocol reported more than $24 billion in lifetime volume for its Intents system and rolled out quantum-safe cryptography, dynamic resharding and AI compute staking.　　Bitcoin and ether (ETH) are under pressure as the multimillion-dollar hack of the hardware wallet Coldcard enters a fifth day, raising questions over the safety of direct custody as a holding strategy.　　The incident has rocked sentiment on crypto social media, with numerous small holders complaining of losing long-term holdings and reassessing their faith in crypto.　　“Worse for sentiment, it [the hack] has spooked holders into sending coins back to exchanges, the opposite of the self-custody trend crypto is built on,” analysts at Marex said. “When the thing wobbling is cold storage itself, a cheaper barrel does not fix it.”　　Given the gravity of the situation and the $114 million of bitcoin stolen, the price reaction of the largest cryptocurrency appears relatively restrained.
