Meanwhile, the spot XRP ETFs were slightly in the red on February 2 again, but it was nothing compared to last week’s massive withdrawals. After nearly a week of almost consistent price losses, Ripple’s cross-border token has finally rebounded, marking a 4% increase since yesterday to just over $1.60.

A decade-old email is reviving questions about whether projects like Ripple posed a threat to Bitcoin’s development or merely served as competitors that some BTC backers sought to exclude.The email, dated July 31, 2014, appears to show Austin Hill, then described as Blockstream’s chief executive, telling the late Jeffrey Epstein and other recipients that “Ripple, and Jed McCaleb’s new Stellar [were] bad for the ecosystem.” Blockstream is a Bitcoin-focused blockchain technology firm.The correspondence resurfaced after the US Department of Justice published millions of pages of records under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, a disclosure that includes emails, files, images, and…

📊No votes yet – Be the first to vote Finseta posted slower growth. The forex and payments company saw revenue hit £12.4 million for 2025, up from £11.4 million the year before, but that’s way down from the 26% jump they pulled off in 2024. The London-listed firm ended the year with 1,101 active customers, barely up from 1,059 in 2024. Customer growth pretty much stalled in the second half as global tariff fears spooked individual clients. Corporate business absolutely surged though, jumping 54% and now makes up 57% of total revenue compared to just 41% the previous year. High-net-worth…

Recently, trading volume in the Bitcoin spot market has decreased significantly. Tight liquidity and heightened market uncertainty have directly led to a substantial price decline.
