Jack Mallers leaves Twenty One as Strike tie-up ends and Bitcoin treasury pressure builds

Jack Mallers is stepping down as chief executive of Twenty One Capital to focus on Strike, while Twenty One and the Bitcoin payments company abandon a contemplated combination.　　Raphael Zagury, a Twenty One board member with experience in capital markets and Bitcoin infrastructure, will take over as CEO. The change puts him in charge of building cash-generating operations around one of the largest corporate Bitcoin treasuries as weaker prices and tighter financing test the wider sector.　　Mallers said he had decided to step down after the role clarified what he wanted to build. “My lifes work remains Bitcoin. My Bitcoin company is Strike. The work continues,” he wrote.　　Tether, Twenty Ones controlling shareholder, confirmed that Zagury would succeed Mallers and that the companies were working toward an orderly handover.　　The Strike combination is no longer on the table　　The split closes off a strategy Twenty One outlined less than three months ago.　　On April 29, the company announced an operating plan centered on possible acquisitions of Strike and Elektron, a Bitcoin mining and energy infrastructure business associated with Zagury.　　The plan was never a completed deal. Twenty Ones March-quarter filing, filed in May, said there were no binding commitments or agreements for either acquisition and that its

Bitcoin defies recent tech stocks sell-off: Are bulls eyeing $70K rally？

Key takeaways:Bitcoin futures and options show whales still prefer hedging downside risks as socio-economic risks mount.Rising Treasury yields and declines in AI stocks fuel risk aversion, yet BTCs strength signals continued decoupling.　　Bitcoin (BTC) showed relative strength over the past week, despite failing to break above $65,500. More importantly, the cryptocurrency has decoupled from traditional markets as investors took profits in memory-chip makers amid fears of excessive valuations in the artificial intelligence sector. Still, judging by Bitcoins derivative metrics, top traders are not particularly confident about a rally toward $70,000.　　Bitcoin perpetual futures annualized funding rate. Source: Laevitas　　The Bitcoin perpetual futures annualized funding rate stood at a neutral 8% mark on Monday, flat from one week prior. Excessive demand for bullish leverage drives the indicator above the 12% level, which last occurred on July 10. It is unclear if Bitcoin traders lack of optimism is somewhat related to contagion fears from the sell-off in tech stocks or the war in Iran.　　Nasdaq-100 futures (left) vs. Bitcoin/USD (right).

Morpho launches fixed-rate lending protocol on Base

Lending protocol Morpho has launched Morpho Midnight on Base, adding fixed-rate, fixed-term loans to its onchain credit network alongside the variable-rate markets offered through Morpho Blue.　　In an announcement sent to Cointelegraph, Morpho said the offer-driven protocol lets lenders and borrowers propose their own interest rates, maturities and other loan terms instead of relying on a protocol-defined utilization curve. Loans are issued as fixed obligations, with terms set through competing offers rather than algorithmic pool pricing.　　Predictable rates and defined maturities are standard features of traditional credit markets. However, they remain uncommon in decentralized finance (DeFi), where borrowing costs generally fluctuate based on market utilization. Fixed terms could make onchain lending more attractive to institutions and businesses that need to manage funding costs, returns and risk exposure in advance.　　A Morpho spokesperson told Cointelegraph that Midnight is live on the Base mainnet, initially supporting cbBTC and USDC across multiple maturity dates. The spokesperson said Morpho deliberately kept the launch contained as part of a progressive rollout that prioritizes security.　　The spokesperson said crypto-native lenders, borrowers and curators already active on Morpho Blue had shown interest in Midnight. Several unidentified enterprises and institutions are also building products on the protocol in beta, with announcements expected

Aztec upgrades to V5 in alpha, adding full private execution environment to decentralized Ethereum L2

Quick TakeAztec v5 is a full execution environment for the Ethereum scaling layer that Vitalik Buterin said has entered Stage 2 decentralization.V5 focuses on supporting “client-side proving,” enabling computation-heavy ZK proofs on simple devices like phones and laptops.　　Crypto privacy project Aztec has released its v5 upgrade in alpha, taking a step toward making fully private transactions “the default” in the Ethereum ecosystem, Aztec co-founder Zac Williamson told The Block in an interview.　　The update, passed by token-holder governance and executed onchain on Tuesday, enables users to generate end-to-end private transactions directly on their own devices, like their phones and consumer laptops, while retaining the censorship resistance and decentralization of crypto.　　This “client-side proving” process differs from the approach used by most other ZK projects, where zero-knowledge proofs are generated in centralized data centers, Williamson said.　　“Weve been ruthlessly saying we need to prove things on phones, on consumer laptops, on some random $500 Lenovo piece of junk, if this technology is going to actually have an impact,” Aztec co-founder Zac Williamson told The Block in an interview.　　According to a press release on Tuesday, the upgrade reduces private transaction proving times by more than 2x, cuts the average cost of a fully private transaction
