Binance spot trading share hits 4-year low as rivals gain and CZ questions X’s KYC plan

Binance spot trading share hits 4-year low as rivals gain and CZ questions X’s KYC plan

Binance’s global spot crypto trading share dropped to 25% in December, marking its lowest point since January 2021, according to CoinDesk Data. The exchange held 28.5% in November and peaked close to 60% in 2023, Bloomberg reported. This shift is crucial since spot trading — the buying and selling of tokens for immediate settlement — directly shows where liquidity actually lives. When that flow splinters, exchanges lose their grip on pricing, fee income becomes tougher to sustain, and the market’s so-called “default venue” begins to lose its default status.

Coinbase stock in focus after CEO Armstrong pulls backing for Senate crypto bill draft

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong withdrew the crypto exchange’s backing for the Senate’s newest market-structure bill draft late Wednesday, citing “too many issues” just before a crucial committee markup. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-14/brian-armstrong-pulls-support-for-crypto-market-structure-bill-clarity The move comes as lawmakers rush to advance a long-delayed overhaul of U.S. crypto regulations, following years of disputes over which agency should oversee most of the sector. With the Senate Banking Committee set to convene Thursday, there’s limited time left to resolve lingering concerns.

Ripple’s Luxembourg EMI Green Light Puts XRP Back in Focus as EU Crypto Rules Tighten

Ripple’s Luxembourg EMI Green Light Puts XRP Back in Focus as EU Crypto Rules Tighten

Ripple has secured preliminary approval for an electronic money institution license in Luxembourg. This regulatory green light allows the crypto payments company to extend its regulated payment services throughout the European Union from Luxembourg. The timing is crucial. Under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets rules, or MiCA, crypto companies must secure national regulator authorizations to continue operations across the bloc. Regulators are already pressing those who haven’t acted to either apply or close shop. Licenses under MiCA have been handed out to names like U.S. exchange Coinbase, stablecoin issuer Circle, and British fintech Revolut, according to Reuters.

Bitcoin breaks $96,000 as U.S. crypto regulation bill and softer inflation data lift prices

Bitcoin breaks $96,000 as U.S. crypto regulation bill and softer inflation data lift prices

Bitcoin climbed Wednesday, reclaiming the $96,000 mark as ether and XRP also saw gains among leading tokens. The move mattered because U.S. inflation data kept the Federal Reserve on a familiar path: no rush, but not done. The Consumer Price Index climbed 0.3% in December and was up 2.7% year-over-year. Core inflation — excluding food and energy — rose 0.2% for the month and 2.6% annually, driven largely by rents and food. “Families may not closely track core inflation, but they see grocery prices,” said Sung Won Sohn, a finance and economics professor at Loyola Marymount University.

Meanwhile, Europe chief Cassie Craddock described Luxembourg as a “premier hub for financial innovation.”

MSTR pops after Strategy’s $1.25B bitcoin buy — and its ‘Stretch’ stock is doing more of the lifting

MSTR pops after Strategy’s $1.25B bitcoin buy — and its ‘Stretch’ stock is doing more of the lifting

Bitcoin surged to a two-month peak Wednesday as Strategy revealed a $1.25 billion bitcoin purchase, sending its shares higher. Investors often see such moves as a signal for crypto-linked stocks. On Tuesday, U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs recorded their largest daily inflows in nearly three months, fueling a risk-on vibe. Strategy, once known as MicroStrategy, has become the most prominent publicly traded "bitcoin treasury" firm — one that raises funds to pile up bitcoin. According to a recent U.S. securities filing, the company bought 13,627 bitcoin between Jan. 5 and Jan. 11, shelling out $1.247 billion at an average of $91,519 per coin. That lifts its stash to 687,410 bitcoin total. The firm said these purchases were financed by selling Class A common shares and its variable-rate Series A perpetual “Stretch” preferred stock, ticker STRC.

Strategy (MSTR) stock jumps as bitcoin nears $97,000 and a director buys the dip

Shares of Strategy Inc rose Wednesday, buoyed by bitcoin's surge near $97,000 and an unusual insider purchase paired with the company’s fresh crypto buys funded by debt and equity. Formerly MicroStrategy, the stock climbed roughly 6.5% to $184.30 by 10:27 a.m. EST. Bitcoin jumped about 4.9% to $96,858, while Coinbase, a key crypto player, added close to 2%. This shift counts because Strategy now behaves less like a traditional software company and more like a high-stakes bitcoin play. When bitcoin prices fluctuate, the stock tends to move even more sharply—partly due to the company funding its purchases by issuing more shares.
