Chris Larsen XRP wallets go active ahead of US midterms
Chris Larsen’s $XRP wallets have resumed on-chain activity ahead of Tuesday’s Texas primary runoff.

Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen’s associated wallets have resumed on-chain activity, according to blockchain data, ahead of Tuesday’s Texas Democratic primary runoff. The reactivation draws immediate attention given Larsen’s history of significant $XRP transfers at notable market and political junctures.

Larsen serves as executive chairman of Ripple Labs. His estimated 2.58 billion $XRP holdings across eight wallets tracked on XRPScan represent one of the largest known individual positions in any single cryptocurrency, worth approximately $3.5 billion at current prices near $1.35.

Why Larsen’s wallet activity draws attention from the $XRP community

In January 2025, wallets that had been idle for six to seven years reactivated and sent more than $109 million in $XRP to exchanges including Coinbase, Bitstamp, and Bybit. In July 2025, on-chain researcher ZachXBT reported an additional $140 million in $XRP transfers from Larsen-linked addresses coinciding with $XRP trading near an all-time high above $3.40.

“Since July 17, 2025, an address linked to Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen transferred out 50M $XRP ($175M) to four addresses. ~$140M ended up at exchanges/services,” ZachXBT wrote on X in July 2025. Larsen had not commented publicly on today’s activity at time of writing.

Whether the current movement precedes exchange transfers or represents internal wallet management is not confirmed from on-chain data available at time of pub

The United States has formally notified Japan that delivery of 400 Tomahawk cruise missiles will be significantly delayed. The reason: Washington needs to replenish its own stockpiles first, after burning through a staggering number of missiles during military operations against Iran.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered the news directly to Japanese Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi during a meeting in May 2026. The original timeline called for the first batch to arrive in April 2028. That date could now slip by up to two additional years.

Japan signed a $2.35 billion contract in 2024 for these missiles specifically to build counterstrike capabilities against China and North Korea. Japan’s deal was structured as two batches of 200 missiles each. The contract was designed to give Japan long-range strike capability it hasn’t possessed since 1945.

The US military reportedly expended over 850 Tomahawk missiles during the early stages of its conflict with Iran, an operation dubbed “Operation Epic Fury.” To put that in perspective, Japan’s entire order of 400 missiles represents less than half of what the US fired off in the opening phase alone.

Raytheon, now part of RTX Corporation, manufactures the Tomahawk. Production lines can only move so fast, and when your biggest customer just emptied the shelves and immediately turns around with a priority reorder, everyone else waits.

Japan’s decision to acquire Tomahawks didn’t happen in a vacuum. For decades, Japan’s constitution and political culture kept its military strictly defensive. No power projection. No offensive strike capability. The country relied almost entirely on the US security umbrella.

That started changing as China’s military buildup accelerated and North Korea’s missile tests became routine provocations. Japan’s leadership concluded that t

Why the Arkham disclosure matters as $ZEC rallies and NU7 approaches
The controversy resurfaced in May 2026 as $ZEC rallied sharply on quantum computing concerns and the approaching NU7 network upgrade. The Orchard shielded pool provides stronger privacy guarantees than the older Sapling pool, but still holds a minority of $ZEC activity.

Until shielded pool usage expands significantly, Arkham-style behavioural analysis of transparent activity will remain possible for the majority of network transactions.

Crypto.news has covered the quantum threat timeline, including research showing Bitcoin’s elliptic curve cryptography requires approximately 2,330 logical qubits to break. Privacy protocols with zero-knowledge proof infrastructure are increasingly discussed as potential safe harbors as those timelines accelerate.

Crypto.news has also noted Citi’s analysis that a quantum attack on major financial institutions could put $2 to $3.3 trillion of GDP at risk, context that makes Zcash’s NU7 privacy improvements directly relevant to institutional risk managers watching the space.

Vitalik Buterin says Ethereum Foundation will narrow its role to protect Ethereum’s core idealsVitalik Buterin said in a lengthy post on X that the Ethereum Foundation is reshaping itself into a smaller and more focused organization as it moves away from acting like the center of the Ethereum ecosystem.

Some of my perspective on where the @ethereumfndn is going.

The Ethereum cofounder said the foundation should operate as one node among many rather than as Ethereum’s central authority, arguing that its limited resources should be directed toward the parts of Ethereum that would not happen otherwise.

The comments follow a wave of high profile departures from the Ethereum Foundation that has intensified scrutiny over its internal restructuring. Carl Beek and Julian Ma announced their exits last week, adding to a broader group of departing or stepping back contributors that includes Barnabé Monnot, Tim Beiko, Trent Van Epps and Alex Stokes.

Buterin said the foundation is choosing longevity over breadth, meaning it will prioritize activities tied to Ethereum’s long term role as a censorship and capture resistant, open, private, and secure system. He said this shift may require some respected teams and contributors to operate outside the foundation so important work can attract outside capital.

The comments come as the foundation continues a transition that Buterin said should stabilize over the next few months. He said his own influence inside the organization will continue to decrease as the board expands, adding that much of the transition is being executed by other foundation l

US strikes Iranian military targets as negotiations near completion, Rubio says




The United States is simultaneously bombing Iranian military infrastructure and negotiating a deal with Tehran.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio indicated on May 22-23 that talks have made “some progress,” with Pakistani officials serving as intermediaries between Washington and Tehran. Meanwhile, US military strikes have targeted key Iranian sites including Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, facilities central to Iran’s nuclear and military apparatus.
