Crypto News
Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are experiencing significant selling pressure, with Bitcoin dropping to $65,900 as Fed tightening risks grow and XRP nearing $0.985 amid similar downward momentum. In notable infrastructure news, Binance has reopened 87 networks following a historic $6.3 billion breach, while mainstream adoption continues with SBI and Cambodia launching blockchain pilots for government bonds and yen stablecoin payments.
