Lending

Lending protocols form the backbone of the decentralized money market, allowing users to lend or borrow digital assets without intermediaries. Using smart contracts, platforms like Aave and Morpho automate interest rates based on supply and demand while requiring over-collateralization for security. The 2026 lending landscape features advanced permissionless vaults and institutional-grade credit lines. This tag covers the evolution of capital efficiency, liquidations, and the integration of diverse collateral types, including LSTs and tokenized RWAs.

BlockDAG’s F1® Sponsorship & XRP Price Prediction In Focus

BlockDAG’s F1® Sponsorship & XRP Price Prediction In Focus

The post BlockDAG’s F1® Sponsorship & XRP Price Prediction In Focus appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Learn how XRP price prediction gets a boost from ETF clarity, but BlockDAG wins on visibility with BWT Alpine F1® and raised $412M+ in presale. XRP is showing renewed strength after the SEC’s decision to streamline ETF listing rules, potentially accelerating institutional exposure. As a result, XRP price prediction models are starting to incorporate capital inflows and compliance-driven confidence. Meanwhile, BlockDAG (BDAG) has taken a very different path to gain momentum. With over $412 million raised in presale, 26.5 billion coins sold, and an ROI of 2,900% since Batch 1, BlockDAG has now achieved a major brand milestone: sponsorship of the BWT Alpine F1®  Team. At just $0.0013 per coin in batch 30, this Layer 1 protocol is merging visibility and infrastructure into a powerful market strategy. The comparison between these two crypto assets highlights different paths to influence, one through regulation, the other through mainstream branding and community reach. BlockDAG Enters the Global Stage Through Sports, Not Just Code While many crypto projects aim for visibility through niche conferences and technical showcases, BlockDAG has accelerated this process by entering the mainstream arena of Formula 1®. By partnering with the BWT Alpine F1®  Team, BlockDAG is not only targeting developers; it is capturing the attention of sports fans, global media outlets, and consumer brands. This exposure creates something technical roadmaps can’t achieve on their own: cultural relevance. When a brand is seen on racetracks, car liveries, and fan activations during Grand Prix weekends, it signals strength, stability, and forward momentum. The question of what crypto to invest in becomes not just about performance metrics, but about perceived staying power. BlockDAG is now playing that game on a global stage. XRP Price Prediction Grows With Regulatory Shifts XRP has gained positive traction from recent SEC rulings that simplify the…

Warner Bros. Hits $4B At Box Office Thanks To Bold 2025 Slate

Warner Bros. Hits $4B At Box Office Thanks To Bold 2025 Slate

The post Warner Bros. Hits $4B At Box Office Thanks To Bold 2025 Slate appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Warner Bros. reached a significant milestone in 2025 by becoming the first studio to exceed $4 billion at the global box office. This marks their best year since 2019, when they earned $4.4 billion worldwide following releases like Joker, It: Chapter Two, and Pokémon: Detective Pikachu. This achievement underscores Warner Bros.’s capacity to lead internationally through a strategy of supporting daring, genre-blending films that resonate with viewers. In 2025, Warner Bros. appears to have undergone a software reset, focusing on content that resonates with audiences. The lineup includes the latest Superman portrayal, two horror films that have redefined the genre, and a video game adaptation that maintains a lighthearted tone. Warner Bros. has discovered innovative and creative methods to develop films that forge unique connections with viewers. Superman Leads the Charge With the latest adaptation of Superman in the self-titled film Superman, James Gunn had a lot to prove to an audience that had already seen several versions of the hero on the big screen, and he delivered. Instead of telling the origin of Superman and how Clark Kent discovered his powers, Gunn elects to show his audience a hero that has already been in the superhero role for a decent amount of time. With this reimagined interpretation of the man of steel, and the introduction of several comic characters that have, at this point, hardly had any depiction outside of comics and television, the film was able to win over jaded fans and casual viewers alike. In an era when superhero fatigue has become widespread, Superman managed to tell a fresh story that proved to be profitable. Warner Bros. demonstrated that audiences aren’t necessarily tired of heroes; they’re tired of the same storylines in spandex and capes, and avoiding that can lead to a successful, profitable film. Weapons and…

zkVerify Launches Mainnet To Cut ZKP Verification Costs

zkVerify Launches Mainnet To Cut ZKP Verification Costs

The post zkVerify Launches Mainnet To Cut ZKP Verification Costs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Horizen Labs, a zero-knowledge cryptography platform, is rolling out its dedicated layer-1 blockchain for private data verification. ZkVerify, a new L1 blockchain designed for zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) verification, announced its mainnet launch on Tuesday. “ZkVerify’s mission is to remove the economic and technical barriers to ZK adoption,” Horizen Labs CEO and zkVerify founder Rob Viglione told Cointelegraph. “Even though verification is typically seen as the ‘cheapest’ part of the ZK value chain, it is still far too costly and inefficient to support real-world scale,” Viglione said. What is ZKP verification? ZKP verification is a cryptographic method that allows one party to prove a statement to another without disclosing the underlying information or data itself. A common example is verifying age eligibility to access a service without requiring the disclosure of an entire ID or other personal details. With a ZKP volume estimated at around $100 million and 4.4 billion proofs as of 2025, the ZK proving market is expected to reach $1.5 billion by 2030, according to data from leading industry platforms Chorus, Aligned and Horizen Labs. ZK proving market predictions. Source: Delphi Digital “Right now, many chains and apps can be slowed down or more expensive because verifying those proofs on Ethereum or another chain can be significantly more expensive,” Viglione said. According to zkVerify, ZKP verification on networks like Ethereum can cost up to $60 per proof during high congestion, with verification consuming up to 300,000 gas units. zkVerify promises to enable cost reduction of at least 90% compared to verifying directly on L1s. “Heavy math instead of original app or chain” To cut verification costs, zkVerify provides a dedicated verification layer by separating proof verification from settlement on L1s. “zkVerify checks a ZK-proof by doing the heavy math instead of the original app or chain,” Viglione told…

Ripple and Coinbase to qualify as crypto custodians under new SEC staff guidance

Ripple and Coinbase to qualify as crypto custodians under new SEC staff guidance

The post Ripple and Coinbase to qualify as crypto custodians under new SEC staff guidance appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The SEC issued a no-action letter on Sept. 30, allowing investment advisers to use state-chartered trust companies as qualified custodians for crypto assets, opening the door for Ripple, Coinbase, and other digital asset firms to serve registered funds. The staff guidance clarifies the definition of “bank” under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, addressing uncertainty regarding whether state trust companies meet this definition. Journalist Eleanor Terrett reported that Brian Daly, Director of the SEC’s Division of Investment Management, told her: “This additional clarity was needed because state-chartered trust companies were not universally seen as eligible custodians for crypto assets.” Both statutes require advisers to maintain client assets with qualified custodians, typically banks or trust companies with national fiduciary powers. Ripple, Coinbase among beneficiaries The clarity provided by the letter positions companies such as Ripple and Coinbase to become recognized qualified custodians for crypto assets. These firms operate as state-chartered trust companies but previously faced questions about their eligibility under federal custody requirements. Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart called the letter “a textbook example of more clarity for the digital asset space” and “exactly the sort of thing the industry was asking for over the last few years.” Investment advisers must conduct annual reviews confirming that state trust companies maintain policies designed to safeguard crypto assets from theft, loss, and misappropriation. Requirements to be a custodian The letter requires advisers to review audited financial statements prepared under GAAP and internal control reports from independent accountants. Custodial agreements must prohibit lending, pledging, or rehypothecating crypto assets without the client’s consent and require the segregation of client assets from the custodian’s balance sheet. The guidance applies to state trust companies authorized by state banking authorities to provide crypto custody services. These institutions face comprehensive regulatory frameworks…
