How Crypto Became a Core Payment Channel in Online Gaming

Five years ago, accepting digital assets was mostly a competitive advantage for online gaming operators. Today, its part of the basic infrastructure.　　The scale of crypto used in player disbursements and affiliate settlements has grown steadily across every major market, and most operators now treat it as a standard part of how money moves through their business.　　Why operators started using it　　For online gaming operators, moving money across borders has always been operationally heavy. Bank transfers take several business days to settle. Accounts get flagged without explanation. In markets where the business is expanding fastest, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa, local banking infrastructure is inconsistent, and separate payment relationships per country add overhead with every new market entered.　　That pressure pushed operators toward digital assets as a practical alternative. Players in the fastest-growing markets (Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines) already use digital assets day-to-day. The expectation carries into how they want to deposit and withdraw.　　Stablecoins now comprise 30% of all on-chain crypto activity, with annual stablecoin volume reaching over $4 trillion by August 2025, an 83% increase on the same period in 2024. For finance teams running high daily disbursement loads, stablecoins like USDT and USDC offer predictable settlement

In briefThe European Union included HTX, the crypto exchange owned and advised by billionaire Justin Sun, in the 21st package of Russia sanctions it adopted Thursday.Listed under its operator, Huobi Global SA, the exchange was placed on an EU annex of firms “significantly frustrating” its Russia sanctions, triggering a transaction ban from August 23 but no asset freeze.The move follows the UKs May designation of HTX, which the exchange denies warrants sanctions, saying such actions lack supporting evidence.　　The European Union has added HTX, the crypto exchange owned and advised by billionaire Tron founder Justin Sun, to its latest round of Russia sanctions.　　The exchange was caught in the EUs 21st sanctions package, adopted Thursday, which the bloc called its largest batch of individual listings in four years, at 218.

Morgan Stanleys Bitcoin ETF Is A Roaring Success

Wall Street giant Morgan Stanley Bitcoin exchange-traded fund now has close to $400 million in assets under management — despite only launching in April.　　The NYSE Arca-listed fund, which is the first by a bank, got off to a roaring start when it debuted, bringing in over $33 million in fresh cash on its first day.　　Now, the fund has over $391 million in assets, demonstrating the popularity of the product. Many ETFs never reach $400 million in assets at all, let alone in one quarter.　　Senior Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst Eric Balchunas revealed Friday that the product has been one of the most successful funds launched this year so far.　　This week alone, investors have thrown $15.7 million in new cash at the product, according to Farside Investors data.　　Morgan Stanley has been making big crypto moves for years now. Back in 2021, it started offering wealthy clients exposure to Bitcoin via funds such as those by Galaxy Digital.　　And last year, the banks CEO and Chairman, Ted Pick, said that the bank was working with regulators to see how they could offer crypto safely.　　Back in April, the banks head of digital assets, Amy Oldenburg said client education — not product design — is the

ALGO Price Prediction: Sub-$0.08 Retest Looms Before Any Real Recovery Has a Chance

Felix Pinkston　　Jul 24, 2026 09:38　　ALGO is grinding in a dead-momentum compression zone well below both its SMA50 and SMA200, with aggressive real-time selling overwhelming whale long positioning; the highest-probability path over t…　　ALGOs Technical Reality Check　　The chart isn‘t subtle here. ALGO is trapped in a structural downtrend — price sitting a full handle below the SMA50 at $0.09 and even further from the SMA200 at $0.10, both of which are functioning as hard overhead resistance, not targets. When a coin is this far below its 200-day average with no volume catalyst in sight, that’s not a buying opportunity. Thats a coin in freefall finding a temporary ledge.　　What makes the current setup particularly uncomfortable is the paralysis embedded in the momentum indicators. The MACD histogram has rounded out to exactly zero — meaning the bearish thrust that drove price to these levels has exhausted itself, but there‘s been absolutely no counter-buying to flip it positive. Momentum hasn’t reversed; it‘s flatlined. The RSI confirms this drift at 41 — neutral to bearish, not oversold, just… absent. Buyers aren’t panicking out, but theyre certainly not stepping in with conviction either.　　The Stochastic oscillator offers the one technical nuance worth watching: with %K at 29.5 crossing

Saylor and team overhaul Strategy's bitcoin metrics as bear market persists

The first metric is the new “Net Reserve”, which currently sits at $36.6 billion. That figure takes Strategys $55.6 billion BTC reserve (843,775 BTC), adds $3.2 billion in USD reserves, then subtracts $6.8 billion in out-of-the-money convertible debt and $15.5 billion in notional preferred, the $22.3 billion in senior claims that rank ahead of common shareholders in any liquidation scenario.　　The company has also updated its multiple to net asset value (mNAV) formula. Under the old accounting method, the accretion threshold would usually keep the companys mNAV above 1.0x, making it increasingly difficult to know whether new share issuance was actually beneficial for existing holders. The new formula anchors that threshold permanently at 1.0x — if MSTR trades above it, issuing new shares adds BTC per share for all investors.　　According to the company, the formula is: MSTR Price, divided by Net Bitcoin Per Share, representing whether MSTR trades above or below Net Bitcoin Per Share after debt and preferred claims.　　The BTC Floor ARR is the minimum sustained BTC growth rate over the credit structures duration before restructuring becomes a consideration for the company. Currently, the BTC Breakeven ARR sits at 3.22%, meaning bitcoin only needs to appreciate faster than that rate

A quantum roadmap would push Bitcoin much higher: Charles Edwards

Bitcoin developers need to swallow their pride and outline a clear plan to harden the blockchain against quantum computing attacks, according to Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards. He says the day they finally bite the bullet, the price will respond very quickly.　　“If the Bitcoin core team says in two or three months: ‘this is our roadmap, we’re gonna solve it in the next two years, these are the rough steps we‘ll take,’ that would be amazing news,” Edwards tells Cointelegraph on Trade Secrets.　　“I think that would discount a lot of the risk pretty much overnight,” Edwards says.　　The question of whether Bitcoin developers should modify the network to make its cryptography quantum-resistant has sparked heated debate within the Bitcoin community, with some arguing that major changes could conflict with Bitcoins core ethos. Others claim quantum computers are many years away, and a rushed cure could be worse than the disease.　　Charles Edwards says a clear roadmap could push price up “very quickly”　　Edwards often highlights the risk of quantum computing to Bitcoin to his 132,800 X followers. The fear is that, one day, powerful enough quantum computers could break the cryptography that protects the Bitcoin network and potentially compromise Bitcoin wallets.　　The uncertainty has

Here‘s Why Paramount’s Decision To Delay WBD Merger Could Cost It Over $1 Billion

Topline　　Paramount Skydance said in a Friday court filing it agreed to push back its merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, which has been challenged by 12 states, to 2027, making the concession despite the fact it could incur millions of dollars in fees for not finalizing the deal by the end of September.　　The merger is valued at roughly $110 billion.　　Photo by Jakub Porzycki/NurPhoto via Getty Images　　Key Facts　　Paramount voluntarily agreed to delay the merger until June 2027 or until five days after the judge makes a decision on the case, whichever comes first.　　Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin issued a temporary restraining order against the merger on Monday, giving her two weeks to determine if she would issue a more stark order that pauses the deal indefinitely while the lawsuit against the merger plays out in court.　　The delayed merger could cost Paramount big time, as under the terms of the deal it will have to pay a $0.25 per day “ticking fee” per share to Warner Bros. shareholders every day if the deal is not closed by Sept. 30—that fee amounts to $650 million per quarter or $7 million per day.　　Paramount said its decision to delay the merger allows it to face litigation quickly in

Strategy Demands Corporate Bitcoin Transparency With MSTR-BTC Dashboard Revealing $54.88B In Holdings

Michael Saylor didn‘t just announce a dashboard. He published a balance sheet with an address. Strategy’s new MSTR-BTC interface, unveiled Thursday, is less a tool for shareholders and more a declaration: corporate Bitcoin holders no longer get to hide behind opaque treasury disclosures. The numbers, pulled straight from the blockchain, are unambiguous. The company holds 843,775 BTC valued at $54.88 billion, priced at $65,035 per coin, according to the original report.　　This isn‘t a marketing splash. It’s a structural shift in how public companies can verify digital asset reserves. The dashboard doesnt rely on quarterly attestations or delayed SEC filings. It ties the treasury directly to on-chain data and capital structure metrics, displaying gross reserves of $58.1 billion, net reserves of $35.88 billion, and a market-based net asset value (mNAV) ratio of exactly 1.00x. For CFOs watching from the sidelines, that level of granularity changes the conversation.　　A Corporate Treasury Built on Public Verification　　Strategy‘s move arrives at a moment when institutional Bitcoin adoption is accelerating, yet regulatory uncertainty still hangs over how companies account for digital assets. The dashboard’s numbers tell a specific story: year-to-date BTC yield sits at 5.8%, representing a gain of 39,325 BTC — roughly $2.56 billion in dollar

FILE Price Prediction: Bears Losing Steam at the Lower Band — But Every Moving Average Is a Ceiling

Rongchai Wang　　Jul 24, 2026 09:33　　FILE is pinned at $0.73 with the entire SMA stack stacked above as resistance and smart money quietly leaning 58.7% long in derivatives. The higher-probability near-term play is a bounce toward $0….　　The Immediate Setup　　FILE is clinging to $0.73 like a fighter covering up in the corner. The 24-hour range has been a miserly $0.02 — from $0.72 to $0.74 — and that extreme compression tells you the market is coiled, not dead. Whats worth watching is where that compression is happening: right on top of the lower Bollinger Band, which is historically where trapped sellers exhaust themselves and short-covering bounces ignite.　　The MACD histogram has hit zero — the bears aren‘t pushing harder, but buyers haven’t stepped up with any conviction either. Momentum has flatlined at the worst possible place: below every meaningful moving average. The 7-day at $0.74, the 20-day at $0.76, the 50-day at $0.77, and the 200-day sitting all the way up at $0.96 — that‘s a stacked ceiling of overhead supply that will chew through any rally attempt until proven otherwise. The one technical spark in this setup is the Stochastic oscillator curling up from the low 20s. With %K at 29 crossing
