 published its attestation for the first quarter of 2026 on Friday, posting $1.04 billion in net profit.

The report, prepared by global independent accounting firm BDO, showed excess reserves had increased to a record $8.23 billion in Q1, supported by its continued profitability, albeit below the pace of its more than $10 billion in annual profit last year. However, the attestation provides a point-in-time snapshot of reserves as of March 31 and does not constitute a full financial audit.

Tether's reserves remain heavily concentrated in short-duration, high-quality liquid instruments, the firm said, with about $141 billion exposure to U.S. Treasury bills as of March 31. That makes it one of the top 20 largest holders of U.S. Treasurys globally, alongside sovereign nations like Saudi Arabia and South Korea, and underscores its growing role in channeling demand for U.S. dollars.

Beyond Treasuries, reserves also include limited other asset classes, according to the report, including gold holdings valued at around $20 billion and bitcoin worth approximately $7 billion. "The diversification reflects a deliberate balance between liquidity, resilience, and exposure to macro assets that perform under stress conditions," the firm said.

As of March 31, Tether's total assets stood at over $191.7 billion and its total liabilities at $183.5 billion, of which $183.4 billion relates to digital tokens issued, reflecting the $8.2 billion excess.

Tether noted that its proprietary investments, held through Tether Investments, are not included in the reserves backing issued tokens and are funded from the company's excess capital and profits, fully segregated from USDT reserves.

Technical Outlook: Bitcoin Builds Strength Near $78K — Reclaim Attempt Underway

Bitcoin is showing a steady recovery phase after the sharp selloff into the macro demand zone. Price has now reclaimed the $75K region and is consolidating just below the $78K resistance zone, where multiple technical confluences are aligning.

The structure currently favors short-term bullish continuation, but BTC is approaching a key decision area that will determine whether this evolves into a full trend reversal or remains a corrective bounce.




📈 EMA Structure (Bullish Shift Developing)

20 EMA: $75,770

50 EMA: $73,837

100 EMA: $75,692

200 EMA: $82,206

Price is trading above 20 / 50 / 100 EMAs

A bullish EMA alignment (20 > 50) is forming

However, BTC is still below the 200 EMA, which remains major macro resistance


👉 The $75K – $78K zone is acting as a key support-turned-resistance flip.

0.382 Fib: $85,273

0.236 Fib: $75,606

0 Fib (Base): $59,980

BTC has reclaimed the 0.236 Fib ($75.6K)

This reclaim signals early structural strength

Price is now testing $78K supply / resistance zone


👉 Holding above $75K strengthens continuation toward higher Fibonacci levels.




🧠 Market Structure Insight (ICT Concepts)

Previous downside move cleared sell-side liquidity below $75K

Current move shows:

Gradual accumulation


Price is now testing a short-term supply / order block near $78K


👉 A clean breakout above this zone could trigger expansion toward higher resistance.




📉 RSI Momentum

RSI (14): 60–62, trending upward

Indicates strong bullish momentum

Buyers are currently in control

Approaching mild overbought territory but not extreme


👉 Holding above RSI 60 supports continued upside pressure.

Bhutan's Bitcoin sell-offs hit $200 mln: Is the country letting go of its BTC reserve?

The Royal Government of Bhutan has sold $23 million worth of Bitcoin this week. According to Arkham data, Bhutan moved 201 BTC ($15 million) from its wallets on Thursday.

A day before, it also transferred 102 BTC ($7.9 million).  

In early April alone, the government dumped $40 million in BTC.  A closer look at the balance of its wallets showed that the government has intensified sell-offs in 2026. At the end of 2025, the tracked wallets held 6000 BTC.

Curve Finance is experimenting with a new approach to one of DeFi’s hardest problems: what to do when bad debt appears.
Instead of relying on treasury bailouts or community-funded rescues, Curve is converting CRV-linked bad debt into tradable onchain claims. These claims are packaged into debt tokens and paired with crvUSD liquidity pools, allowing the market itself to determine their value.
In practice, users affected by bad debt now have three options:
Sell their debt claims immediately at a discounted market price and exit
Hold and wait for potential recovery if CRV prices rebound
Provide liquidity to the debt pool and earn fees and incentives
Curve’s founder Michael Egorov frames the shift clearly: bad debt should not be treated as a donation problem, but as a pricing problem.
The core idea is to replace “socialized bailouts” with market-driven discovery. Traders, arbitrageurs, and LPs collectively decide how much distressed debt is worth, while the protocol simply provides the infrastructure for price formation.
Curve emphasizes that this mechanism does not erase losses or guarantee recovery. Instead, it changes how losses are handled—turning them into tradable positions rather than locked liabilities.
If this model proves resilient, it could become a blueprint for future DeFi protocols looking to manage risk without defaulting to emergency treasury interventions.

Ethereum dormant wallets exploited for $800K

On the 30th of April, hundreds of wallets that had been inactive for over seven years were drained by the same address.

Attackers drained about $800k from these dormant wallets by directly accessing the private keys. Most of these funds were swapped via THORChain to Bitcoin, while others were channeled across other chains. 

On-chain investigator Specter observed that the attacker bridged 324.741 ETH worth $734k to the Bitcoin Network. Still, around $66k in assets remained in the EVM wallets.


According to MastrXYZ, a wallet labeled by Etherscan as Fake_Phishing2831105 received these funds from multiple addresses. The wallet then moved them through swaps and cross-chain infrastructure. 

MastrXYZ pointed to old leaks from weak software or breaches such as the 2022 LastPass incident. Unlike recent DeFi exploits, no new approvals, contracts, or signatures were involved.

On April 30, the Central Bank of Brazil issued Resolution 561, banning crypto in cross-border payments.

Analyst Victor Alfa notes this 2025-reviewed ban forces firms to abandon on-chain efficiency for fiat.

Taking effect on October 1, the Central Bank will exclusively require fiat usage for foreign exchange flows.

The Central Bank of Brazil is moving to curb the institutional adoption of cryptocurrency assets, including bitcoin and stablecoins, within its regulated cross-border payment system.

Resolution No. 561, published on April 30, amends earlier resolutions to improve the provisions of international payments of transfer services, banning cryptocurrency as an option that institutions providing these cross-border payment and exchange services can tap.The document stresses that these transactions must be carried out “exclusively: I – through a foreign exchange transaction or movement in a non-resident’s Brazilian real account held in Brazil, with the use of virtual assets being prohibited.”

Nonetheless, the resolution, which comes into effect on October 1, lists “virtual assets” as a special category identifying transactions, meaning the bank recognizes their existence but chooses not to allow their implementation in cross-border operations.

The bank clarified that these regulations had been approved to “improve security, transparency, and greater alignment of Brazil with global standards for preventing financial crimes,” and followed a public consultation held in 2025, restricting the provision of these services to organizations authorized by the institution.

Even so, this has been taken as a limitation that could affect the efficiency and cost advantages these providers enjoy when using crypto assets, especially stablecoins, to execute these operations.

Victor Alfa, economist and crypto analyst, stressed that while this measure did not bring the regulat

MOVEMENT UPDATE
The altcoin market is currently experiencing selective momentum rotation, where only specific sectors are showing strong performance while the broader market remains mixed. This behavior suggests that smart money is not entering randomly but instead rotating capital strategically between narratives.
~ High-quality projects in sectors like DeFi, Al tokens, Layer-2 solutions, and infrastructure are seeing stronger demand compared to low-cap speculative assets.
This indicates a more mature market phase where investors are prioritizing utility and long-term potential over hype-driven coins.
Il BTC dominance is still relatively strong, which means altcoins have not entered a full-scale "altseason" yet. Historically, altcoin seasons begin when Bitcoin stabilizes after a strong move and dominance starts to decline. That condition is not fully confirmed yet.
• On-chain data shows that large holders are still accumulating selectively rather than aggressively exiting or entering. This creates a balanced but volatile environment where sudden sector-based pumps can occur without full market confirmation.
! Traders are advised to focus on strong narratives rather than random coins because liquidity is still concentrated in top-performing sectors.
? Question: Do you think altcoin season is quietly starting or still far away?
