TeraWulf’s Q4 losses hit $1.66 per share as mining revenue fell, but AI and high-performance computing contracts worth $12.8 billion set up potential 2026 growth. TeraWulf, a publicly listed US digital infrastructure company, missed fourth-quarter earnings estimates as its mining revenue dropped amid falling Bitcoin prices in late 2025. TeraWulf (WULF) released 2025 earnings on Thursday, reporting a fourth-quarter loss of $1.66 per share, compared with a loss of $0.21 per share a year earlier. Analysts surveyed by Yahoo Finance had expected a $0.16 loss.

MARA reported a $1.71 billion quarterly loss as Bitcoin fair‑value markdowns hit earnings and the company laid out a major push into AI and high‑performance compute. MARA Holdings (MARA) reported a fourth quarter 2025 net loss of $1.71 billion, or $4.52 per diluted share, compared with net income of $528.3 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, in the same period a year earlier. Its shareholder letter filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said revenue in Q4 fell 6% to $202.3 million from $214.4 million in the year-earlier period, as a lower average Bitcoin (BTC) price outweighed the impact of a higher hashrate. For the full year 2025, MARA booked a net loss of $1.31 billion, compared with net income of $541 million in 2024, even though its revenue rose to $907.1 million from $656.4 million. Read more -

The AI bug hunter scanned the Ripple blockchain codebase to catch the vulnerability before it was deployed, enabling engineers to patch it. XRP Ledger Foundation has confirmed it patched a critical vulnerability found in a yet-to-be-enabled amendment of Ripple’s XRP Ledger, averting a potentially major exploit. On Feb.19, a security engineer at cybersecurity firm Cantina, Pranamya Keshkamat, and the Cantina AI security bot identified a “critical logic flaw” in the signature-validation logic of Ripple’s blockchain, XRP Ledger, reported the XRP Ledger Foundation on Thursday. The vulnerability in the signature validation code batch amendment would have allowed an attacker to execute transactions from victim accounts, including draining funds, without ever having the victim’s private keys.

Self-managed super funds are becoming a vehicle for Australians to invest in digital assets as traders search for ways to diversify their holdings. Australia's crypto market is making progress in user growth and regulatory reforms, but there are still a range of issues to iron out in the sector, crypto executives told Cointelegraph. On the sidelines of the XRP Australia 2026 event in Sydney on Friday, Coinbase APAC managing director John O’Loghlen said the country has seen positive regulatory momentum and growing expertise among those tasked with policing the industry. O’Loghlen also said institutional interest and access are growing through products like crypto exchange-traded funds. Australia’s first ETF, which holds Bitcoin (BTC) directly, went live in June 2024. An Ether (ETH) ETF followed in October 2024. Read more -

In a shareholder letter, Dorsey said he expects other companies to follow suit soon and reduce headcount in the wake of AI advancements. Update (Feb.27, 1:25 Am UTC): This article has been updated to include more information on Block’s job cuts and earnings results. Jack Dorsey’s payments company Block is set to cut around 40% of its staff in a major shake-up, a decision the co-founder attributed to the rapid acceleration of AI at the company. “We're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company, and that's accelerating rapidly,” wrote Dorsey in a letter to the company, which he shared on X.

Key takeaways: Bitcoin derivatives show persistent fear despite the current rally toward $70,000, as seen by futures premiums being pinned well below neutral levels. The markets’ cautious stance stems from broad risk-aversion and lingering concerns over institutional BTC liquidations and Bitcoin network security. Read more -

The industry-supported Promoting Innovation in Blockchain Development Act could be a solution by Congress to push back against criminalizing writing code. A bipartisan group of lawmakers in the US House of Representatives has introduced legislation aimed at halting prosecution of software developers who do not have custody or control of others’ crypto assets. In a Thursday notice, Representatives Scott Fitzgerald, Ben Cline and Zoe Lofgren said that they would be sponsoring the Promoting Innovation in Blockchain Development Act in an effort to change how to handle criminal cases potentially involving blockchain developers. The bill would clarify that Section 1960 under US federal law, on the “prohibition of illegal money transmitting businesses,” would apply only to actors with control of others’ digital assets.

ETH bulls briefly pressed the price above the $2,000 to support, but will a positive funding rate and increase in holder profitability generate sufficient momentum to hold the level? Ether (ETH) price reached a weekly high of $2,150 on Thursday, which is a key level for large ETH holders, but volatility in the crypto and stock markets continues to catalyze corrections below $2,000. A daily close above $2,100 remains important because that level aligns with the cost basis and realized price of wallets holding 100,000 or more ETH. Realized price tracks the last moved price of coins, offering a profitability gauge rather than a spot reference. Since 2020, Ether has traded below this whale cohort’s realized price only a handful of times, most notably during the 2022 bear market. The chart shows that the price has regularly recovered after the realized price level was tested as support. Read more -

The proposal would allow a US exchange to trade shares of a fund holding JitoSOL, representing the first SEC exchange filing for a liquid staking token ETP. Nasdaq has filed a proposed rule change to list the VanEck JitoSOL ETF, a fund designed to hold the Solana-based liquid staking token JitoSOL. Liquid staking allows users to stake tokens to help secure a proof-of-stake network while receiving a transferable token in return that represents the staked assets and accrued rewards. Jito Foundation president Brian Smith told Cointelegraph that if the fund is approved, staking rewards would not be distributed separately but instead reflected in the fund’s net asset value.

Bitcoin trades below most holders’ cost basis, but a rally above $74,500 could change everything. Can the bulls pull it off? Bitcoin (BTC) has rebounded 7.45% over the past two days after dropping to $62,400 on Tuesday, below a key onchain price support. Despite the bounce, holders who bought six months to two years ago remain at an average cost of $74,500, a level that now stands as a potential inflection point. As BTC moves higher, the concentration of supply around $74,500 stands as a key test for the current trend; a decisive reclaim of that level may signal demand and a shift in short-term market structure. Bitcoin’s realized price tracks the average onchain acquisition cost for a given UTXO age band. For coins aged 18 to 24 months, that level stands near $64,200. Read more -

Bloomberg and Kaiko aim to embed licensed financial data directly on blockchain networks, targeting institutional tokenized Treasurys and repo markets. Bloomberg is collaborating with Kaiko, a Paris-based digital asset market data provider, to make Bloomberg’s licensed financial data accessible directly within blockchain environments rather than through traditional offchain databases. The companies said Thursday that the initiative is designed to address the challenge of inconsistent data across tokenized markets. In many tokenized asset ecosystems, companies may rely on different versions of pricing data, security identifiers or reference information, increasing the risk of discrepancies and operational inefficiencies.

Bitcoin institutional flows are cooling while its long-term holders and network participants absorb the supply. In a range-bound regime, these are the key signals to watch. Since dropping by 35% from Jan. 14 to Feb. 5, Bitcoin (BTC) has consolidated in a range from $60,000 to $70,000 over the past 22 days. At the same time, several BTC adoption-linked metrics are moving in different directions across exchange-traded funds (ETFs), whales, miners and corporate Bitcoin treasuries. These divergences highlight steady capital commitment beneath muted price action and how each signal fits into the bigger picture. The 90-day rolling average of US spot Bitcoin ETF net flows has dropped to -$2.18 billion. Over the past two years, the metric has turned negative only twice: from March to May 2025, and in the current stretch that began on December 11, 2025. In both instances, Bitcoin followed with a corrective phase. Read more -

As US policymakers scrutinize prediction markets platforms, many Polymarket users won bets over speculation as to which insider trading an online sleuth had exposed.

In a Thursday X post, ZachXBT said Axiom employee Broox Bauer and others allegedly were responsible for insider trading activity at the company “since early 2025.” According to the pseudonymous onchain investigator, Bauer allegedly used internal tools “to lookup sensitive user details to insider trade by tracking private wallet activity.” Read more -

AI and crypto-linked issuers are paying up to 9% for debt as lenders demand higher returns than traditional utilities. The AI and data center boom partly driven by Bitcoin miners is increasingly being financed through high-yield bond issuance, underscoring how lenders are pricing both risk and opportunity in the sector. According to TheEnergyMag’s latest newsletter, companies tied to AI data center development have raised about $33 billion in long-term senior notes over the past 12 months, excluding convertible debt — bonds that can later be converted into equity and typically carry different risk dynamics. The interest rate spread is notable: While regulated utilities and traditional energy companies generally borrow at 4% to 5%, AI- and crypto-linked issuers pay closer to 7% to 9%. Read more -

Amid reports that the White House will not consider a presidential pardon, the convicted former FTX CEO continues his efforts in court. Lawyers representing the US government in the case against Sam “SBF” Bankman-Fried have two weeks to respond to the former FTX CEO’s motion for a new criminal trial. In a Wednesday filing in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, Judge Lewis Kaplan said that the US government shall respond by March 11 to SBF’s motion for a new trial. The former FTX CEO, who was convicted of seven felony counts in 2023 and later sentenced to 25 years in prison, requested a new trial earlier this month, claiming that new witness testimony could help bolster his case. Bankman-Fried, once revered by many as one of the most prominent faces representing the crypto and blockchain industry, was at the center of the controversy around the collapse of FTX. He stepped down as CEO in November 2022, later facing criminal charges in the US for the misuse of user funds. Read more -

In an interview with Cointelegraph, CEO Nic Puckrin breaks down the forces behind Bitcoin’s bear market and what could come next in 2026. In an exclusive Cointelegraph interview, crypto YouTuber and CEO of Coin Bureau Nic Puckrin says he expects 2026 to play out as a “tale of two crypto markets” — institutional conviction on one side, and near-total retail apathy on the other. While headlines have been dominated by exchange-traded funds, policy shifts and big-money adoption, he argues that the everyday investor isn’t showing up the way they did in previous cycles — and he explains why that matters for what comes next. He also revisits the debate around Bitcoin’s “four-year cycle.” Many traders declared the old playbook dead after an unusual run-up before the halving and the absence of a classic blow-off top. However, Puckrin outlines why recent price behavior has forced even skeptics to reconsider their views. Read more -
