A crypto-backed PAC just dropped another $884,000 into Michigan’s 13th Congressional District race — and it’s not slowing down. Protect Progress PAC, tied directly to Ripple Labs and Coinbase, has now pushed its total media spend past $2 million in support of incumbent Representative Shri Thanedar, who faces Democratic challenger Donavan McKinney in the primary. The new Federal Election Commission filings show the $884,240 figure as a fresh injection, basically doubling what the PAC had already committed within a single week. That’s a fast escalation. On top of the pro-Thanedar ads, Protect Progress also dropped more than $150,000 on ads…

Bitcoin and Ethereum edged higher into July 31, while a small shift in market dominance suggested traders were again watching whether capital was rotating toward major altcoins. The validated notes show Bitcoin rising 0.29% to about $64,145.86, while Ethereum traded around the $1,890 to $1,920 range, briefly dipping below $1,900 before recovering. At the same time, BTC and ETH dominance slipped slightly, pointing to a modest move into other crypto assets. That is not enough to declare “altseason,” and it would be lazy to pretend otherwise. But it is enough to say the market is becoming more selective. Bitcoin and…

The U.S. Senate formally set aside the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act on July 28, 2026, redirecting its floor schedule toward a Russia sanctions bill and federal nominations, effectively foreclosing a vote before the chamber’s August 7 recess begins – and with it, any near-term statutory path to cementing XRP commodity classification in federal law. This is not simply a scheduling casualty. It is a structural inflection point for an asset class whose institutional buildout, custody products, bank balance-sheet treatment, and spot XRP ETF inflows – depends on legislative permanence that agency-level rulings cannot reliably provide.

Bitcoin was trading higher on Wednesday — but only slightly — after the Federal Reserve decided to keep interest rates still.  The leading cryptocurrency was recently priced at close to $64,402 per coin, after moving up by nearly 1% in the hour following the announcement.  As expected, the U.S. central bank left the federal funds rate in the 3.50%-3.75% range. Three of the 12 members of the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee “preferred” a quarter-percentage-point hike at this meeting.  Speaking to the press following the announcement, the Fed’s new Chair, Kevin Warsh, revealed little about where the central bank would…
