SEC2026-09-18 09:10:00SEC opens temporary path for tokenized stock trading as spot Bitcoin ETFs add $159 millionThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved an "innovation exemption" that creates a temporary, conditional route for on-chain trading of certain tokenized NMS stocks, with SEC Chair Paul S. Atkins laying out four core requirements. Those include U.S.-based venues, permissioned access, a ban on synthetic tokenized equities, and an issuer opt-out right backed by a 30-day notice process. The agency also said token holders must receive rights equivalent to those attached to traditional securities, including dividends and voting rights. Elsewhere, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $159 million in net inflows on Sept. 17, according to SoSoValue. BlackRock's IBIT was the only fund with net inflows, adding $184 million, while Fidelity's FBTC saw the largest daily outflow at $16.6386 million. Total net assets across spot Bitcoin ETFs stood at $96.247 billion, with a net asset ratio of 6.26% and cumulative historical net inflows reaching $54.728 billion. The day also brought a wide set of market and project updates: a Bitcoin whale moved 1,651.82 BTC to Kraken, Hyperliquid launched manual borrowing against HYPE and BTC, Across Protocol began its transition to AcrossCo with ACX set to lose all functions after Jan. 8, 2027, and Nostra paused lending after an oracle manipulation incident on Starknet.1510

Bitcoin whale2026-08-14 02:23:59Bitcoin Whale Holding for Three Years Moves 158.7 BTC to Coinbase, Profit Down Over 40% From PeakOn August 14, on-chain monitoring account ai_9684xtpa reported that a Bitcoin whale holding positions for about three years appeared to begin selling. Address bc1q7…jvlgw sent 158.7 BTC into Coinbase eight hours earlier, valued at roughly $10.01 million. The funds were linked to address 3JLdM…jEp9L, which withdrew BTC from Kraken on March 11, 2023, and then kept the coins for a long period. The estimated cost basis of the whale was approximately $20,000 per BTC. During the recent bull market, the position recorded a floating profit exceeding $15.31 million at one point. If the entire 158.7 BTC deposited to Coinbase is sold, the whale is projected to realize around $6.206 million in profit. That amount represents a decline of more than 40% from the peak floating gain. The monitoring data did not specify when the sale would be completed or whether the whale plans to sell all deposited coins. The transfer occurred about eight hours before the alert was published on August 14.1640
SpaceXAI2026-07-13 09:37:00Hackers net $135,000 from compromised SpaceXAI and Starlink X accounts as Robinhood Chain DEX volume hits $4 billionPANews’ daily roundup covered a wide range of crypto market and on-chain developments, led by two high-profile incidents tied to social media accounts and meme tokens. According to the report, hackers who compromised the official X accounts of SpaceXAI and Starlink used them to promote the $SCATMAN token and made a combined profit of about $135,000. The same roundup also said the accounts had reposted a Robinhood Chain meme coin that briefly pushed its market cap to $2 million before a rug pull, with the posts later deleted. Robinhood Chain itself reached several milestones since launch, including more than $290 million in stablecoins attracted to the network, $134 million in total value locked, $12 million in active RWA market cap, and $4 billion in cumulative DEX trading volume. Separately, Robinhood co-founder Vlad Tenev reportedly exposed a seed phrase during a livestream, allowing attackers to seize control of an address and use it to inflate and dump meme tokens. The roundup also highlighted broader market data. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net inflow of $197 million last week, ending eight straight weeks of outflows. A dormant whale moved 2,931 BTC worth about $188 million, while Galaxy Digital’s head of research said four long-term holder indicators had reached record highs.2650
