Biggest Movers: DOGE Loses Five Days' Worth of Gains on Wednesday

Dogecoin (DOGE)

Dogecoin (DOGE) plunged on Wednesday, as bears entered the market, snapping a five-day win streak in the process.

Following a low of $0.0853 last Friday, DOGE/USD surged to a peak of $0.0950 during yesterday’s session.

These gains were wiped today, as the meme coin fell to a low of $0.0851 earlier in the day.

Biggest Movers: DOGE Loses Five Days' Worth of Gains on Wednesday

DOGE/USD – Daily Chart

One of the main catalysts for the drop seems to be a breakout on the relative strength index (RSI), which fell below a floor at 60.00.

At the time of writing, the index is tracking at 54.98, which is marginally higher than a floor at 53.00.

DOGE has since rebounded, and is currently at $0.08815, however should the RSI continue to fall, the coin could move below $0.0850.

Solana (SOL)

Another notable mover on Wednesday was solana (SOL), which fell by as much as 9% today.

SOL/USD dropped to a bottom at $22.27 earlier in the day, which comes following Tuesday’s peak at $25.22.

As a result of the decline, solana fell to its weakest point since last Tuesday, when the token traded at a low of $20.83.

SOL/USD – Daily Chart

Like with dogecoin, today’s drop seems to have coincided with a breakout on the RSI indicator, which moved below 57.00.

Price strength is currently at a reading of 53.36, and is fast approaching a lower point of support at 51.00.

If this downturn continues for the remainder of the week, there is a strong possibility that SOL will move below $20.00.

Attention, Bitcoin Users! Today's Hack May Be Larger Than You Think. Here's What to Do

Bitcoin users are urged to take immediate action following the disclosure of a critical security vulnerability. Hardware wallet manufacturer Coinkite has revealed a flaw in the seed phrase generation process for certain Coldcard Mk3 devices running firmware versions 4.0.1 through 5.0.3. All bitcoin addresses created from seed phrases generated on these potentially affected devices are now considered at risk. This warning coincides with an ongoing investigation into a major hack that drained approximately 1,082.65 BTC (worth roughly $70.2 million at the time) from 1,196 single-signature wallets in just 41 minutes on July 30. Security analysts believe the coordinated thefts, which used identical transaction fees and left no change, were executed by an automated tool scanning for compromised private keys. Notably, this attack occurred about 30 hours before Coinkite's public disclosure of the Coldcard vulnerability, raising concerns of a possible connection. Experts strongly recommend that impacted Coldcard Mk3 users do not consider their old seed phrase safe. The advised course of action is to generate a completely new, secure seed phrase on a trusted, modern hardware wallet and then transfer all funds to addresses derived from this new seed. Simply moving the old, potentially compromised seed to a new device is not sufficient.

Bitcoin in August: Experts Expect Range Testing, Not a Quick Reversal

Experts anticipate Bitcoin will remain under pressure in August, lacking momentum for a sustained rally after a partial July recovery. The price, trading around $63.5k, is seen stuck in a $60-65k range. Analysts cite a challenging macro environment of high U.S. rates, persistent inflation, and a strong dollar as key headwinds, alongside record ETF outflows. Historically, August is a weak month for crypto. Experts outline three main scenarios: a base case of sideways movement between $58-68k (50% probability), a bearish drop to $50-55k (30%), or a bullish push toward $71-75k (20%). Key levels to watch are support at $60-61k and resistance at $67k. While some see current prices as attractive for long-term accumulation, most warn of potential short-term downside, with a retest of $60k or even a fall toward $53k possible. A decisive market turnaround is not expected before Q4, making August a month for testing key levels rather than a major breakout.

Coldcard Hardware Wallet Hacked: 594 Bitcoin Withdrawn in 25 Minutes

The Coldcard hardware wallet has been compromised, with hackers stealing approximately 594.5 Bitcoin (~$40 million) from 500 addresses in just 25 minutes. The root cause was a critical software bug, undetected for five years, which disabled the device's secure chip for generating true random numbers. This led to the creation of private keys based on predictable data like the processor's serial number, drastically reducing cryptographic security. The attackers exploited this offline by brute-forcing possible seed phrases, finding active addresses on the public ledger, and signing transactions. Initially, Coinkite (Coldcard's maker) claimed only older models were at risk but later admitted all devices running the compromised firmware were vulnerable. CEO Rodolphe Novak (NVK) apologized but ruled out financial compensation for affected users. To secure funds, owners must urgently update their firmware to specific safe versions, generate a completely new seed phrase on the updated device, and transfer all assets to new addresses created with that new seed. While a BIP-39 passphrase can help, it does not replace this migration process. Other Coinkite products like TAPSIGNER were not affected. This incident underscores that even specialized hardware requires rigorous, independent code audits, especially for cryptographic functions. It parallels past failures, like a 2006 OpenSSL bug in Debian, and raises questions about whether automated code analysis can ever fully replace human scrutiny in critical security areas.

Circle Reaches Major Regulatory Milestone, Receives Trust Charter from New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS)

Circle, a financial services and stablecoin company, announced it reached a key regulatory milestone by receiving a Limited Purpose Trust Charter from the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). This charter allows Circle to expand its operations in New York to include asset custody services, issuance of NYDFS-approved stablecoins, and management of the reserves backing them. The approval positions Circle's USDC stablecoin within a regulated framework and follows the company's earlier receipt of a national trust bank charter from the U.S. OCC. CEO Jeremy Allaire stated this achievement reflects over a decade of compliance commitment and aligns with NYDFS's high standards, comparable to those for full commercial banks, as digital dollars become central to the global financial system.
