Launched last Friday, InfinityPools is a new DEX on Base that offers unlimited leverage and no liquidations.
How does it work?
To perform leveraged trades, InfinityPool traders take out loans in the form of Univ3-style concentrated AMM liquidity, as opposed to traditional stablecoin loans for margin trading. This is the crux of InfinityPool’s unique liquidation mechanism: Traders have the guaranteed option to sell their borrowed collateral back to the pool at a fixed price regardless of how much market prices fall (like a put option), thereby capping their losses at their initial…

I’m not here to say “I told you so.”
In my Take from October 4, I did write that Donald Trump does not give a damn about Bitcoin, and in my Take from November 5 I wrote he just wants in on the crypto scam. But I didn’t mention Ross Ulbricht in either of these, largely because even I expected Trump to at least follow through on his promise to free Ross. It’s an easy promise to keep, without any real downside for Trump;…

Overshadowed by this weekend’s Trump meme mania, the ongoing debates surrounding Ethereum’s future have reached fever pitch. The public discussion highlights divides between parts of the community and the Ethereum Foundation (EF). Debates touch on governance, the network’s scalability roadmap and long-term vision.
One key area of debate is the governance of the EF. Critics argue that the EF’s internal structure may not be suitable for the current era. Despite its mission to decentralize, the foundation’s current centralized decision-making invites critiques of its responsiveness to…

KULR Technology Group Inc. has dramatically increased its Bitcoin holdings purchasing an additional $8 million in Bitcoin bringing its total investment to $50 million. This acquisition was at an average price of $101695 per Bitcoin. KULR now proudly holds 510 BTC.
With a strategic commitment announced earlier this year KULR plans to allocate up to 90% of its surplus cash reserves into Bitcoin. This decision is part of an innovative Bitcoin Treasury Strategy that has yielded a remarkable 127% BTC Yield so far. The company leverages its financial resources effectively through this approach.
BTC Yield serves as a key performance indicator for KULR offering insights into its acquisition strategy. While this metric isn’t a traditional financial measure it is crucial for understanding how KULR maximizes shareholder value through strategic Bitcoin investments.

There is no shortage of opinions when it comes to the stunning launch of President Donald Trump’s Solana memecoin. The news and staggering performance of $TRUMP in the days leading up to his Inauguration have all but confirmed the dawn of a new era for our industry, emphatically declaring that the rules are now very different. In the midst of all the drama, confusion and hot takes, I’m left wondering: did Bitcoiners fumble the bag?…

Anthony Bourdain would famously go to great lengths to avoid and outwit a guy inside him who wanted to rot in bed all day.
I do something similar with my inner contrarian. But I can’t help it with this one: The crypto portfolio of Trump-linked DeFi platform World Liberty Financial could very well turn out to be the crypto strategic reserve that many anticipate will soon be announced.
And it’s already getting messy.
To the conspiracy theorist that sometimes types for me — like the rat in Ratatouille — there are obvious signs.
Donald Trump Jr. perhaps let it slip on X. To…

Bank of America’s CEO Brian Moynihan expressed readiness to integrate cryptocurrencies into the banking sector’s payment systems during a CNBC interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos. He highlighted that the adaptation hinges on regulatory approval.
Moynihan pointed out that American banks are equipped to adopt crypto transactions once regulations are set clarifying the digital currencies as legitimate for business use. Despite the industry’s hesitation about crypto in retail transactions the major banks have engaged in bitcoin ETFs and other institutional crypto dealings.
Addressing cryptocurrency’s potential beyond investment Moynihan added that it could become a common payment option alongside Visa and Apple Pay. The bank is well-prepared for such developments with hundreds of blockchain patents and is waiting for the regulatory green light to proceed.
Major strides in cryptocurrency regulation have emerged from Kenya as the government announces a new Virtual Asset Service Providers Bill 2025. The legislation mandates all crypto companies to maintain a registered office within the country and appoint CEOs or directors approved by the Capital Markets Authority. This move is poised to enhance oversight and increase transparency in the crypto trade.
Crypto trading platforms like Binance and Coinbase will need to have a management board with at least two directors ensuring that no director serves on multiple boards simultaneously. The government aims to vet all senior figures in these companies ensuring they uphold high standards of integrity and qualifications related to virtual assets.
With this new bill Kenya stands at the forefront of cryptocurrency innovation fostering a safe environment for digital currency exchanges. These regulations are designed to protect investors facilitate smoother transactions and support the growth of a robust crypto economy.
