Bitcoin Correction Deepens As Long Term Holders Begin To Sell
Bitcoin is wavering and taking a brutal shock: nearly 600 billion dollars are now unrealized losses. At 66,000 dollars, the market reveals fragility rarely seen at this scale. A significant part of the supply is under pressure, while some long-term investors are starting to give in. Between capitulation and demand exhaustion, this phase marks a turning point in the current market dynamics. It remains to be seen whether this tension signals a simple adjustment... or a deeper cycle change.

Tokenized Markets Expand But Risks Remain IMF Analysis
Tokenization is advancing rapidly in global finance, driven by institutions... but doubt is setting in. In a recent report, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) makes a clear observation: this innovation promises to streamline markets and improve transparency, while introducing new risks that are difficult to anticipate. Between the acceleration of transactions and the potential weakening of financial balance, tokenization is establishing itself as a major transformation whose consequences remain largely uncertain.

DeFi: 169 million dollars stolen in Q1 2026 despite the decline in losses
DeFi did not have its most explosive quarter, but it remains an open target. In the first quarter of 2026, hackers stole approximately 168.6 to 169 million dollars from 34 DeFi protocols. The figure is significantly lower than in the first quarter of 2025, but it reminds us of one simple thing: in crypto, a lull never means security.

Oracle Sacrifices 30,000 Jobs in AI-Related Layoff Wave

Ethereum Foundation Approaches 70000 ETH With New Financial Plan
A symbolic threshold is about to be crossed by the Ethereum Foundation. With nearly 70,000 ETH now staked, the institution is accelerating a major strategic shift in managing its treasury. Behind this rise is a clear objective: generate returns without selling its reserves. This repositioning goes beyond financial logic as it also redefines its role in the ecosystem and raises governance issues.
