Derivatives don’t mint new Bitcoin, analysts say, pushing back on viral claims that state paper BTC has broken the 21-million cap. A market analysis viewed almost 5 million times on X states that Bitcoin derivatives have turned the cryptocurrency’s 21-million-supply cap into a “theoretically infinite” one. Past Bitcoin (BTC) falls had a clear catalyst, but sharp drops in the opening months of 2026 have sparked several theories, ranging from digital asset treasuries (DATs) blowing up under pressure to a lingering hangover from October’s mass liquidation cascade. Robert Kendall, author of “The Kendall Report,” claimed he cracked it in his viral X post. He argued that Bitcoin’s valuation logic based on fixed supply “died” once cash-settled futures, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and other financial instruments were layered on top of the asset.

XRP is entering a stretch where on-chain cost basis, leverage, and flow data may matter more than broad market narratives. The token is approaching a critical point after a sharp rise in realized losses, with on-chain activity showing investors moving coins below their purchase prices. That is a classic capitulation signal. It often appears near […] The post XRP ETF inflows collapse 93% as price capitulates, will this cause a reset or repair phase? appeared first on CryptoSlate.

A solo Bitcoin miner hit a rare jackpot of more than $200,000 after validating a block through $75 worth of rented hashrate. A solo Bitcoin miner notched a rare win by validating an entire Bitcoin block, securing a huge payday using a hobby-level mining operation and on-demand hashrate.  The miner earned the 3.125 Bitcoin (BTC) block reward, worth about $200,000 at current prices, after successfully mining block 938092, according to blockchain data and a post from Bitcoin mining firm Braiins. Braiins said the miner relied on on-demand hashrate, spending about 119,000 satoshis, about $75 at the time, to rent 1 petahash per second of computing power and paying a small solo-mining fee in the process. The miner used CKPool, a service that lets individual miners work independently while using a pool server to broadcast work and submit solutions, the company said. Read more

Ethereum is going back to its cypherpunk ethos with FOCIL—but it could create compliance issues down the line.

Arkham data shows the Ethereum co-founder’s attributed wallets fell from about 241,000 ETH to 224,000 ETH this month. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has reduced his Ether balance by about 17,000 ETH in one month after announcing plans to earmark $45 million worth of tokens for privacy projects. Buterin’s wallets tracked by Arkham held about 241,000 Ether (ETH) in early February, before a series of outflows reduced the combined balance to 224,000 ETH on Tuesday. The reduction comes amid continued selling by Buterin, including about 2,961 Ether worth $6.6 million over a three-day period earlier in the month. Onchain analysts reported that this accelerated recently as he sold $7 million worth of tokens in the past three days. Read more

Bitcoin has flashed rare bottom signals, but macro headwinds are keeping a sustained recovery at bay, analysts told Decrypt.

Ethereum remains under sustained downside pressure after the February liquidation cascade, with the price now stabilizing around the mid-$1,800s. The broader structure still reflects a cyclical correction rather than a completed bottom, but short-term momentum has cooled, and the market is attempting to build a base above a major higher-timeframe demand region.
