Bitcoin fell below the $80,000 level. The move followed public remarks by Fed official Kevin Warsh pledging to tackle inflation and signaling a potentially continued restrictive policy stance, Bloomberg reported. Concerns about tighter liquidity conditions weighed on risk assets such as cryptocurrencies.

A Nasdaq-listed company plans a share issuance in which it will issue 10 new shares for every existing share, with proceeds to be used to buy Bitcoin. The move underscores how traditional listed companies are using equity financing to expand their balance-sheet exposure to Bitcoin.

Crypto exchange Kraken voted against a Solana governance proposal. The proposal seeks to speed up the reduction in SOL’s supply growth by increasing SOL inflation’s disinflation rate from the current -15% per year to -30% per year. Kraken’s opposition could affect the proposal’s chances of being approved.

Solana’s governance vote to reduce inflation is nearing its deadline, with support at 67.88%, narrowly above the 66.7% threshold required to pass. Major staking providers including Figment and Everstake have voted against, arguing that faster disinflation would cut SOL issuance and reduce staking yield. Solana’s DAT “Solana Company (HSDT)” also opposed the proposal, citing the need for consistent rules at a key moment for institutional adoption. By contrast, leading DeFi protocol Jupiter cast all its votes in favor, and the proposal’s passage would lower SOL’s annualized staking APY and could affect capital retention and smaller validator operations.

BTC rose 1.85% to USD 80,389 as reported spot-fund demand and USD 67.49 million in BTC short liquidations supported the move.

Solana’s SOL token has broken above the $100 level. Data show derivatives open interest for the token climbed 10%, pointing to stronger market participation. Meanwhile, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tracking SOL have continued to post net inflows, suggesting growing allocation interest from institutional and mainstream investors. Together, these moves indicate a recent pickup in Solana market activity and capital inflows.

The S&P 500 is now available for 24/7 trading on the XRP Ledger in tokenized form. The move gives the XRP Ledger access to a traditional finance market with a total capitalization of more than $50 trillion. It also provides on-chain users with exposure to U.S. equities, underscoring deeper integration between legacy market indices and crypto-native infrastructure.
