House Republicans have cut CLARITY’s pre-midterm window to just four voting days.
The Senate’s first major vote is set for Sept. 15, with the House leaving Washington two days later. That makes passage before the midterms increasingly unlikely.

Genius Group sold every Bitcoin it owned to repay debt after legal restrictions choked its fundraising.
With the injunction now vacated, it plans an $827M BTC treasury using Strategy’s STRC playbook.
Its proposed first raise: $12.5M—just 1.5% of the target.

Bitcoin is now only 1.43x as volatile as gold, down from 5.6x in 2021.
Bitcoin volatility sits near the bottom 10% of its historical range, while gold is near the top 7%. Their 90-day correlation has risen to roughly 0.55, the highest since 2020.

Bitquery found 96,231 text-encoded outputs disguised as Bitcoin addresses in the UTXO set, leaving about 3.2 BTC effectively stuck.
Unlike OP_RETURN data, which remains in block history but not the UTXO set, these fake-address outputs stay in the live database nodes use to track spendable coins.

🔐 SECURITY: About 20.5 BTC linked by Bitquery to the Coldcard theft has started moving through THORChain into Ethereum.
Most of the traced stash is still untouched: 1,396.33 BTC remains parked in identified addresses.

Remixpoint sold every ETH, SOL, XRP and DOGE it held, taking in about $5.5M and locking in a ~$737K net gain.
It kept 1,506 BTC worth roughly $121M. Bitcoin is now the company’s only crypto holding, while the sale proceeds remain available for other corporate uses.

BIS tested XRPL as a public notary for official statistics. The catch for XRP holders is how little XRP the design needs.
Batch 1,000 datasets per transaction, and authenticating 1 million datasets would burn just 0.01 XRP.

Solana’s fee reform had more SOL voting for it than against it. It still failed.
Why: 72M SOL abstained, and abstentions counted toward the two-thirds threshold. Yakovenko can push an issue onto the agenda, but he still needs the stake to carry it.

Hyperliquid Strategies expanded its equity facility to $2.5B, but dated filings show only about $236M of room before a new Nasdaq dilution constraint matters.
After $1B in total sales, discounted shares could hit the exchange cap and force a shareholder vote.

🏛️ POLICY: Revolut has waited nearly six months for a US bank charter while narrower crypto trust banks moved ahead.
The reason: Revolut wants deposits, lending and payment rails backed by FDIC insurance. Most crypto approvals stop at custody and stablecoins.

Bitcoin’s four-year cycle may matter less as Wall Street’s share of the market grows.
Public companies and ETPs already hold 2.7M+ BTC, more than 16 years of current miner issuance. Willy Woo says credit and liquidity cycles could increasingly set the pace instead.

Kalshi wants to bring perpetual futures to US oil markets, but its proposed WTI contract would still shut down on weekends.
That leaves traders unable to react during the exact window when geopolitical and supply shocks can move crude before traditional futures reopen.

📊 DATA: Bitcoin ETFs flipped back to $101.2M of inflows on Sept. 2 after $236.5M of outflows the day before.
BTC is doing the same around $77K. Meanwhile, ETH, XRP and Solana ETF inflow streaks all broke on Wednesday after nearly two weeks of steady buying.

📊 DATA: At ~$77K, about 600,000 more BTC is sitting in profit than the last time Bitcoin traded here in May—roughly $47B of extra supply that could sell into strength.
Above that, another ~1.05M BTC sits between $83K and $86K near long-term holder breakeven.

🏛️ POLICY: A Dubai court gave Matthew Brittain until Sept. 7 to identify who funded legal costs tied to the $456M TrueUSD reserve dispute.
If he misses the deadline, Techteryx can ask the court for sanctions. Ownership of the disputed reserves is still unresolved.

📊 DATA: Robinhood stock tokens did more volume as memecoin trading pairs than as stocks on Sept. 2: $217M vs. $127M.
One HIMS-linked meme pool absorbed 53% of the tokenized float and briefly pushed the token to 4.6x the underlying share price.

📊 DATA: Roughly 880,000 BTC was bought between $77.5K and $80.3K, putting about $68B of supply near breakeven.
That’s the wall Bitcoin keeps running into: every move toward $80K gives underwater holders a chance to get out close to cost.
