					  <![CDATA[ Bitcoin price traded above $76,500 today, holding onto recent gains despite rising geopolitical tension. Bitcoin fell back toward $75,000 into the weekly close and over the weekend as renewed tension between the United States and Iran rattled markets and refocused attention on oil prices.
The pullback followed a failed breakout above $78,000, which had marked Bitcoin’s highest level in ten weeks. The move higher came after a brief easing in geopolitical risk, when Iran signaled the Strait of Hormuz was open. That shift sent crude lower and lifted risk assets, including crypto. The rally reversed once reports emerged that the waterway had been closed again, raising the prospect of&#8230;

					  <![CDATA[ Alcoa is in talks to sell its idle Massena East aluminum smelter in upstate New York to bitcoin mining firm NYDIG, according to comments from Alcoa chief executive Bill Oplinger in a Bloomberg interview.
The Massena East site sits along the St. Lawrence River and has been out of operation since 2014. The closure followed sustained pressure from high energy costs and global competition that reduced domestic aluminum production. The facility spans about 1,300 acres and contains heavy electrical infrastructure built for continuous industrial use.
Alcoa is pursuing a broader plan to divest a group of idle US smelter assets. The company has identified ten dormant sites for potential&#8230;

					  <![CDATA[ Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) analysts have identified $76,000 as the early warning level that determines whether the cryptocurrency runs to $95,000 or crashes back to $70,000.
The $76,000 Early Warning Signal
Prominent analyst DonAlt from Technical Roundup says $76,000 represents the previous month’s high and serves as the first test of whether the current breakout will hold. 
A move below $76,000 doesn’t kill the rally but signals early weakness.
“I think 76 is quite aggressive, but if you’re trading lower time frames, I think that does make sense,” Don said. 
“I’m just kind of looking at $70,000. If we start losing $70,000 again, I think then it’s truly over this time,” he&#8230;

					  <![CDATA[ Ripple has unveiled a multi-phase plan to prepare the XRP Ledger (CRYPTO: XRP) for potential risks posed by quantum computing, as concerns grow around future threats to blockchain security.
XRP Ledger&#8217;s Built-In Advantages
Ripple said there is no immediate danger to current cryptographic systems. However, it warned of a long-term risk known as &#8220;harvest now, decrypt later,&#8221; where attackers could store encrypted data today and decode it once quantum computing capabilities mature.
To address this, the XRP Ledger is adopting a phased approach rather than a single system-wide upgrade.
Ripple highlighted several existing advantages within the network, including native key rotation and seed-based&#8230;

					  <![CDATA[ Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood, long known for her bullish stance on Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), has adjusted her long-term outlook while her firm also reduced exposure to select crypto-related equities.

					  <![CDATA[ The Highest Pace Since December
The weekly purchase represents the highest pace of buys since December 15, 2025.
Bitmine now owns 4.12% of Ethereum’s total supply of 120.7 million, making the company 82% of the way to its goal of owning 5% of the total supply.
“We see growing signs that the ‘mini-crypto’ winter is coming to an end,” said Chairman Tom Lee. 
“As downside tail risks for the U.S.-Iran war diminish, ETH has risen 41% from its early February lows,” he added.
ETH has outperformed the S&amp;P 500 by 2,280 basis points since the war started and remains the single best performing asset in the world beside crude oil prices according to Lee.
