Espresso: Global Confirmation Layer for L2s

Согласно данным, предоставленным PeckShield, в январе и феврале 2026 года в результате хакерских атак, связанных с криптовалютами, были зафиксированы убытки в размере 112,53 млн долларов.

Хотя февральские потери значительно снизились по сравнению с предыдущим месяцем, общие данные показывают, что инциденты в сфере безопасности по-прежнему представляют значительный риск в начале года.

Потери в январе были вызваны в основном несколькими крупномасштабными атаками.

В январе 2026 года были зафиксированы самые значительные потери: 16 хакерских атак привели к общим убыткам в размере 86,01 млн долларов. Это представляет собой снижение на 1,42% по сравнению с 87,25 млн долларов в январе 2025 года.

Однако январские потери также увеличились на 13,25% по сравнению с 75,95 млн долларов в декабре 2025 года.

Пять крупнейших убытков в январе были сильно сконцентрированы. Наибольшие убытки понесла компания Step Finance — 28,9 млн долларов, за ней следуют Truebit (26,4 млн долларов) и SwapNet (13,3 млн долларов).

Saga сообщила об убытках в размере 7 млн долларов, а Makina Finance — 4,13 млн долларов, из которых 2,7 млн долларов были впоследствии возвращены.

Помимо уязвимостей протоколов, PeckShield отметила, что убытки от фишинга в этом месяце превысили 300 млн долларов. Это подчеркивает серьезность рисков социальной инженерии и уязвимостей смарт-контрактов.

В феврале наблюдалась значительная коррекция, но концентрация рынка остается высокой.

В феврале 2026 года криптовалютная индустрия пережила 15 крупных хакерских атак, общие потери от которых достигли 26,52 млн долларов. Это представляет собой снижение на 69,2% по сравнению с январем и снижение на 98,2% в годовом исчислении по сравнению с февралем 2025 года.

На сравнение с прошлым годом в основном повлияла уязвимость Bybit на сумму 1,4 миллиарда долларов в прошлом году, которая повысила базовый уровень п

XRP Australia 2026 turned into an unexpected window into Washington's inner workings when Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse revealed that former SEC Chair Gary Gensler had privately apologized and admitted, during a high-level White House meeting, that he had been wrong about XRP.
The revelation marks an unbelievable shift in tone after years of aggressive SEC enforcement and a bruising legal battle against Ripple.

The Room Where It Happened
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse could hardly believe it himself as he recounted to a stunned audience the encounter he had with former SEC Chair Gary Gensler near the end of 2024 at the White House, during a meeting on digital asset policy, just after the SEC-Ripple legal battle had finally wrapped up. According to Garlinghouse's account, Gensler approached him in private after the session ended: "He comes up to me and he says sorry," Garlinghouse recalled, laughing, still visibly astonished:
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, and you guys have done an incredible job"
How the SEC vs Ripple Battle Defined XRP
The four-year legal battle between the SEC and Ripple began in December 2020, when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sued Ripple for allegedly raising $1.3 billion through an unregistered securities offering tied to XRP, framing XRP itself as an investment contract. This resulted in many exchanges delisting XRP, putting the token under a huge regulatory cloud for years and the Ripple vs. SEC case becoming a symbol for the entire crypto market.
However, in 2023, Ripple achieved a very important partial victory, when a judge ruled that, despise some issues with certain institutional sales, XRP was not a security when sold on public markets.
More Than An Apology

Is Bitcoin a Forever Hold? New Bullish Indicator Says ‘Yes’

Bitcoin is Holding Strong Near $66K–$68K, with $1.1B Flowing into US Spot ETFs in Just Three Days
Bitcoin is trading between $66,000 and $68,000, showing resilience despite recent volatility.

US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $1.1 billion in inflows after a $3.8 billion outflow streak, signaling renewed institutional demand.

The proposed BIP-360 upgrade is viewed as a bullish development that could strengthen Bitcoin’s long-term value.

Bitcoin has always been known for strong price swings, but new signals are pushing the idea that it could be an asset worth holding for the long term. A recent development proposal called BIP-360 has added to that belief. This proposal is still under review and has not been fully approved. However, many crypto experts view it as a positive step for the network.

BIP-360 may improve the background operations of the Bitcoin network. It could help the system run more smoothly, making it useful for developers and large investors. When the main network becomes stronger, it usually builds trust over time. Supporters believe updates like this prove Bitcoin is not stuck in the past and keeps improving. This may help the cryptocurrency stay valuable in the long run.

A crypto analyst has drawn a striking comparison between XRP and the Russell 2000 index, a US stock market index that tracks the performance of smaller publicly traded companies. Based on the similarities found between the two assets, the analyst has suggested that the altcoin could be setting up for an explosive move into price discovery.

XRP Chart Mirrors Russell 2000 Index Trend

A new technical analysis by market analyst Austin compares XRP’s recent price action with historical price movements of the Russell 2000 index. In an X post, the analyst shared two parallel charts, explaining that in late 2021, the Russell 2000 underwent a massive rally followed by a lengthy period of accumulation and consolidation from 2022 through most of 2024.

When the small-cap index eventually retested its all-time highs in late 2024, it formed a sharp Elliott Wave ABC corrective pattern that shook out weak hands. Following this, the index staged a dramatic V-bottom reversal in early 2025 and broke out into full price discovery territory.

According to Austin’s analysis, XRP’s current chart appears to mirror a nearly identical blueprint to the Russell 2000 price action between 2021 and 2025. After its own massive pump and prolonged accumulation phase, XRP recently surged to retest its previous all-time high resistance near the $3.30 level on the chart. Following that retest, the cryptocurrency entered a similar ABC correction, mirroring almost step by step the movements of the Russell 2000 before its explosive breakout.

Notably, the chart reveals that the A and B waves of the corrective three-wave pattern have already completed, and the price is currently working through the C wave. The chart structure suggests a potential crash to the $1.00-$1.27 range before any meaningful reversal attempt. If this occurs, it would represent a decline of roughly 5.22%- 25.37% from current levels of around $1.34.

Bitcoin is facing renewed pressure as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East reshape the macro backdrop and weigh on risk assets. Rather than responding to isolated headlines, the market is reacting to a broader shift in uncertainty, liquidity expectations, and cross-asset positioning. Price remains fragile, with rallies struggling to gain traction as participants reassess exposure in an increasingly volatile environment.
A recent CryptoQuant report sheds light on a critical behavioral shift through the Short-Term Holder (STH) P&L to Exchanges metric
- a tool designed to track how the most reactive cohort is positioning. These investors, often responsible for amplifying short-term volatility, tend to transfer coins to exchanges when under stress, particularly during loss realization events.

Sum 24H | Source: CryptoQuant
During the February 5-6 capitulation episode, STHs sent approximately 89,000
BTC to exchanges at a loss within a single
24-hour window — a clear signal of panic-driven distribution. However, the dynamics have since evolved. Following that event, loss-driven inflows have steadily declined.
This suggests that immediate sell-side pressure from recent buyers is diminishing.
The data indicate that acute panic has subsided. What remains is not aggressive acumulation, but a gradual transition from forced liquidation to relative exhaustion - a subtle yet important structural development.
The granular view of the Short-Term Holder
P&L to Exchanges metric adds nuance to the broader picture. Even amid the recent geopolitical escalation involving Iran - an event class that has historically triggered reactive risk-off flows — exchange inflows from short-term holders did not materially expand. As Bitcoin probed the $63,000-$64,000 zone, there was no corresponding spike in realized-loss transfers. For a cohort typically h

A well-known Solana NFT marketplace that once pushed hard into Bitcoin and other chains has quietly started to shrink its footprint.

Reports say the shift will be fast and clear: several services will stop working in March and April as the company focuses where it thinks the money is.

Magic Eden Pulls Back To Solana
The change is not small. Support for EVM and Bitcoin Ordinals and Runes is being wound down on March 9th, with the Bitcoin API shutting on March 27 and the platform’s self-custody wallet set to go fully offline on April 1.

Reports note that the marketplace will keep Solana support and some Pack products, but many cross-chain tools will disappear. Users have been told to move assets or export keys before the cutoff dates to avoid losing access.


Why This Happened
Costs and returns drove the move. According to posts from company leadership, most engineering and infrastructure costs were tied to products that brought in only a fraction of the revenue.

Update on @MagicEden and @DiceyHQ:

It is clear we’re entering a new era where finance and entertainment merge. We are now 2 months into @DiceyHQ’s closed beta and are incredibly bullish on how things have developed (~200 users, >$15M wagered).

— Jack (@0xLeoInRio) February 27, 2026

In plain terms: a lot of work for little money. That math pushed a rethink about where to spend limited resources. One part of the business is being doubled down on: an on-chain casino called Dicey that ran a closed beta earlier this year and drew heavy betting volume.

What The Beta Showed
Dicey’s trial phase attracted around 200 users who placed roughly $15,000,000 in wagers over two months. Reports say that number convinced management the product could make stronger returns than the quieter NFT markets the company had been supporting.

Bitcoin is currently consolidating between $62,000 and $69,000, compressing within a narrowing range as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East inject fresh uncertainty into global risk markets. Rather than trending decisively, price action reflects hesitation. Buyers have defended the lower bound near $62K, yet repeated failures below $69K indicate that upside conviction remains limited in the current environment.

According to XWIN Research Japan, February 2026 marked a notable break in historical seasonality. Bitcoin closed the month down 14.94%, despite February traditionally ranking among its stronger periods, often delivering double-digit average gains. This year, the pattern failed. The decline was not driven by a single headline event but by structural fragilities: thin liquidity conditions, leverage imbalances across derivatives markets, and persistently weak spot demand.

At the beginning of February, Bitcoin was trading near $84,000. However, on-chain indicators already signaled underlying stress. SOPR remained below 1, confirming that coins were being spent at a loss. Realized Cap flattened, pointing to a slowdown in fresh capital entering the network. Meanwhile, the Coinbase Premium lacked consistent strength, suggesting that US spot demand had not materially returned.

The mid-February drawdown was not simply a directional selloff; it was a leverage event. As the price weakened, liquidation cascades accelerated the decline, forcing long positions out of the market. Open Interest contracted sharply, confirming that the move was driven by derivatives unwinds rather than steady spot distribution. In a thin liquidity regime, these leverage resets tend to exaggerate volatility. When order books are shallow, relatively modest flows can push prices disproportionately, amplifying downside extensions.
