Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, is accumulating Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) once again, as institutional demand for crypto-based Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) ramps up. The move comes despite ongoing market volatility and heightened bearish sentiment, highlighting how institutional appetite for crypto exposure remains firm even as fear and uncertainty spread across the market.BlackRock Ramps Up Bitcoin And Ethereum BuyingFrom April 6 to 10, BlackRock recorded a strong wave of inflows into its spot crypto ETFs, highlighting sustained institutional demand for digital assets. The recent inflows also signaled a shift in sentiment among investors, who had previously adopted a risk-off stance amid geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic conditions that fueled price declines in the crypto market.  Related Reading: What The Spike In The XRP Volume Means For The Digital AssetIn total, the investment company attracted about $780 million across its Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, a staggering figure that shows renewed interest in regulated crypto exposure. SoSoValue reports that the bulk of these inflows went into BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which brought in roughly $612 million. Meanwhile, the firm’s Ethereum ETF, iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA), added approximately $168 million over the same period. Source: SoSoValueAs new shares were issued, authorized participants stepped in to facilitate the process, requiring custodians to buy an equivalent amount of real BTC and ETH. Those assets are now being held by Coinbase Custody, the primary custodian for BlackRock’s crypto ETFs. To maintain full backing, the firm acquires Bitcoin and Ethereum through on the open market or over-the-counter (OTC) deals. BlackRock, for its part, manages th

A source briefed by Tehran told Reuters that Iran may be willing to allow vessels to navigate freely through the Omani side of the Strait of Hormuz as part of ongoing ceasefire negotiations with the United States. The proposal marks a notable shift in Iran's stance following weeks of aggressive posturing over one of the world's most critical maritime corridors.The offer comes in the aftermath of a conflict that has triggered the largest disruption to global oil and gas supplies in history. Since hostilities broke out on February 28, Iran has effectively blocked traffic through the strait, which facilitates roughly 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas trade. Hundreds of tankers and approximately 20,000 crew members have remained stranded inside the Gulf throughout the crisis.A two-week ceasefire took effect on April 8, and President Donald Trump indicated this week that a resolution may be near. However, control over the Strait of Hormuz continues to be a central sticking point in diplomatic efforts. The narrow waterway, just 34 kilometers wide between Iran and Oman, connects the Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean and serves as a vital artery for Middle Eastern energy exports and other essential commodities like fertilizers.Under the reported proposal, Tehran would permit ships to pass through Omani territorial waters without interference. Nevertheless, key questions remain unanswered, including whether Iran would remove any mines potentially placed in the area and whether Israeli-linked vessels would also be granted safe passage. The deal is also conditional on Washington agreeing to meet Tehran's broader demands.The proposal represents the first concrete sign that Iran may be stepping back from more provocative positions, which previously included plans to levy tolls on ships and assert sovereign control over the international waterway — moves wid

Japan has taken a major step toward reshaping its crypto regulatory landscape.
The Cabinet has officially approved a bill that reclassifies cryptocurrencies as financial instruments under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, moving them away from their previous classification as simple payment tools.
This shift marks a significant upgrade in regulatory oversight and brings crypto assets closer to traditional financial markets.
Key changes under the new framework include:
Insider trading rules applied to crypto: Trading based on undisclosed material information will now be prohibited, similar to rules in stock markets.
Mandatory annual disclosures: Crypto issuers will be required to publish regular reports, improving transparency and investor access to project information.
Stronger enforcement against unregistered exchanges: Penalties will be increased to curb illegal or non-compliant operations.
Beyond tighter regulation, the move is widely seen as a signal of growing institutional acceptance of digital assets in Japan. Analysts expect the clearer legal framework could support the development of crypto ETFs in the coming years and attract more institutional capital.
By integrating crypto into its core financial regulations, Japan is positioning the sector as part of a more mature and transparent financial system rather than an unregulated frontier market.

Day one at Paris Blockchain Week turns into an institutional scouting mission for privacy, composability and gold‑backed tokenization plays in the heart of Paris. Summary Early conversations at Paris Blockchain Week 2026 are converging on institutional needs for privacy and composability, according to builders on the ground. Canton Network and iExec are drawing attention as examples of how to square confidential data with interoperable on‑chain workflows for banks and asset managers. A gold tokenization project reportedly backed by JPMorgan is adding real‑world asset “weight” to a program already framed as “where institutions and digital assets finally meet.” Day one of Paris Blockchain Week 2026 is underscoring a simple message from the buy‑side: if blockchains want serious institutional flows, they must solve privacy and composability at the same time. In a recap post after the first day, investor and commentator Tokenoya wrote that “institutions are converging on one thing: privacy + composability is the real bottleneck,” name‑checking custody platform dfnsHQ and permissioned ledger project Canton Network as emblematic of that shift. Institutional Paris turns to privacy and composability Held at the Carrousel du Louvre on April 15‑16 under the banner “Where Institutions and Digital Assets Finally Meet,” Paris Blockchain Week’s 7th edition has drawn more than 10,000 decision‑makers from banks, asset managers, regulators and Web3 infrastructure teams. Organizers and partners describe the focus as squarely post‑speculation, with sessions on tokenized treasuries, regulated stablecoins and cross‑border settlement rails framed as extensions of existing market structure rather than parallel casinos. Social media threads highlight how that institutional tone is filtering into side events. At a dfnsHQ gathering, they reported that large institutions now view priva

Ethereum DEX aggregator market grows more competitive as Kyber, CowSwap rise

Kyber currently leads with ~30% market share, followed by CowSwap at 22%, while 1inch has seen its share decline over the same period.

The following is excerpted from The Block's Data and Insights newsletter.

The Ethereum DEX aggregator market landscape has shifted over the past year, moving away from the near-dominance of a single protocol toward a more distributed competitive field.

Kyber currently leads with approximately 31% market share, followed by CowSwap at 22%, while 1inch has seen its share decline from roughly 30% to 15% over the same period. This diversification stands in contrast to broader trends in crypto, where many sectors have seen consolidation.

The all-time view shows 1inch commanding the majority of aggregator volume through 2021-2022, a period that coincided with aggressive liquidity mining campaigns across DeFi. The subsequent erosion of its share as incentives wound down raises a structural question of how much of any aggregator's volume reflects genuine user preference versus incentive-driven activity.

Tether backs Stablecoin Development Corporation’s $134 million private placement used to acquire SKY tokens

The Stablecoin Development Corporation is a publicly-traded holding company with an approximate 2.15 billion SKY token treasury.

Tether announced on Wednesday that it supported SDEV’s $134 million private placement in January.

Tether has named itself as a backer of the publicly-traded holding company Stablecoin Development Corporation’s previously announced $134 million fundraise, according to a release on Wednesday.

SDEV, the firm’s NYSE American ticker and frequent abbreviation, is designed to provide public market investors with structured exposure to the stablecoin sector, including through its strategic position in Sky (formerly MakerDAO). 

The firm holds SKY, the governance token for the Sky Protocol, and uses Sky's USDS stablecoin, the third-largest stablecoin by market capitalization and the largest that’s fully onchain. 

As of March 31, the SDEV holds approximately 2.15 billion SKY tokens, representing approximately 9.15% of the total token supply.

Tether’s release on Wednesday also notes SDEV works to identify “how stablecoins and decentralized finance are used in practice” and the ways to reduce user adoption friction. 

“Stablecoins are already being used far beyond trading, especially in places where traditional systems don’t work well,” Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said in a statement. “What matters now is making that infrastructure more reliable and easier to use, so people can rely on it day to day. The next phase of adoption will be driven by systems that make digital assets practical and accessible for everyday use.”
