Bitcoin Price USD Will Dip to $97K Before Possible Surge to $130K

The post Bitcoin Price USD Will Dip to $97K Before Possible Surge to $130K appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Bitcoin is flashing bullish signals once again—and a major breakout could be just around the corner. After posting a solid 29.2% gain in Q2 so far, BTC might be gearing up for its next leg up, according to crypto analysts on X. Bitcoin Price Performance in Q2 2025 Q2 Growth: 29.2% so far April Return: 14.2% May Return: 11.1% June Return (so far): 1.90% In May, Bitcoin climbed from $94,177.90 to touch a monthly high of $111,704 on May 22. But after hitting that peak, BTC retraced 9.11% between May 23 and June 5. A brief rebound of 8.61% followed between June 6 and 10—but the price couldn’t break the previous swing high. Between June 11 and 22, Bitcoin dipped again by 8.46%, only to bounce 1.2% in the last 24 hours—hinting at possible renewed momentum. Bullish Flag Pattern Forming: Analyst Insight Crypto analyst Caption Faibik , in a recent post on X, revealed that Bitcoin is forming a classic bullish flag pattern—a continuation setup that often signals the next leg of a bull run. “Before the next surge, BTC may briefly dip to the $97K–$98K range,” says Faibik. “Once it breaks past the $108K resistance, the rally toward $130K is likely.” The bullish flag pattern features: A strong upward move (the flagpole) A slight downward or sideways consolidation (the flag) A breakout above the flag’s upper boundary signals continuation of the trend Bitcoin’s Key Levels to Watch Support Zone: $97,000–$98,000 Breakout Level: $108,000 Midterm Target Post-Breakout: $130,000 Experts agree that a strong daily close above $108K will confirm the bullish breakout and could open the doors to the much-anticipated six-figure surge. BTC Community Reacts: Dip Before the Rocket? Crypto analyst Chainbull and several BTC enthusiasts echo Faibik’s prediction, believing that the current dip is a healthy consolidation before the next leg up. If Bitcoin follows the expected pattern, a breakout to $130K could become the dominant narrative going into Q3.The charts suggest Bitcoin isn’t done yet. A short dip could lead to a major breakout—and BTC could be heading to $130K sooner than expected. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Bluebird Mining secures Bitcoin funding as Philippine gold deal nears completion

Bluebird Mining is accelerating its pivot to digital assets with a £2 million funding facility to buy Bitcoin, timed just as it finalizes a gold profit-sharing agreement in the Philippines. On June 25, Bluebird Mining Ventures Ltd, a London-listed gold miner, has secured a £2 million funding facility, with £1 million available immediately, to begin implementing its Bitcoin Treasury strategy. The facility is structured as a zero-interest loan, maturing on 31 Dec. 2026, with the option for the lender to convert the debt into Bluebird shares at 2 pence per share. The funds will be used to purchase Bitcoin ( BTC ), marking the company’s entry into digital asset holdings alongside its core business in gold mining.

Under the deal, the company will receive a 10% profit share and bonus royalty payments. This aligns directly with Bluebird’s recently stated strategy to convert future gold revenues into Bitcoin. As the company announced on June 5, it plans to combine income streams from its gold mining projects and recycle those revenues into a proactive Bitcoin-in-Treasury management approach, while maintaining minimal corporate overhead.

Crypto Stocks Soar as Iran-Israel Ceasefire Holds – Best New Crypto to Buy

US crypto stocks are rallying following US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a phased ceasefire between Iran and Israel. The pause in fighting was initially set to begin June 24, but the truce was broken within an hour: Iran allegedly fired missiles, while Israel launched strikes near Tehran. Trump quickly stepped in, blasting both nations to stand down. So far, the two sides appear to be toeing the line, and with easing geopolitical tensions, crypto stocks like Coinbase and Riot have surged. Now may be an opportune time to explore new crypto to buy, and we’ve found some hot picks. World War 3 Cancelled, Coinbase Stocks Jump 12.10% Tensions between Iran and Israel flared on June 13 after Israel struck Iranian nuclear sites. In response, Iran fired missiles at Israel. The US then joined the conflict, launching major airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities on June 22. Iran retaliated by striking a US base in Qatar the following day. Iran and Israel then launched new attacks on each other, going against Trump’s orders for a ‘peace agreement’ – a phased truce brokered by the US and Qatar. The US president wasn’t impressed, stating both countries ‘don’t know what the f**k they’re doing.’ While tentative, the ceasefire appears to be holding and has been enough to boost market risk appetite. Since yesterday, Coinbase stocks have jumped 12.58% . Meanwhile, crypto mining firm Riot Platforms has surged 8.09% , and Marathon Digital Holdings is up by 4.94% . This could make now a timely moment to buy into the next crypto to explode . Our top choices right now include Snorter Token ($SNORT) , Maple Finance ($SYRUP), and Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) . 1. Snorter Token ($SNORT) – Crypto Trading Bot on Telegram Boasting Ultra Low Fees (Just 0.85%!) If you’re looking for hot crypto opportunities as investors shift back toward riskier assets, Snorter Token ($SNORT) is worth eyeing. $SNORT is the native token of Snorter Bot, a Telegram-based crypto trading bot getting set to launch in Q3 2025. Built for speed and affordability, it’ll help you sniff out trending tokens, set stop-loss and take-profit limits, and avoid scams. For more information, check out our What is Snorter guide . Currently focused on Solana, boasting the lowest bot fees on the network at just 0.85%, it plans to expand across all major Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chains. Beyond premium features and low fees, $SNORT also gives you access to staking rewards (currently at a 260% APY), plus voting rights. Having a say in the platform’s governance means you can share your ideas on future developments to help boost its sustainability. $SNORT is already gaining serious traction. It’s raised over $1.2M on presale, with a helping hand from three major whales who injected $40K , $10.8K , and $10K into the project. You can buy $SNORT for as little as $0.0961. After being listed on crypto exchanges, it’s expected to hit $0.94 . So, if you act now, you could position yourself for 879% returns. 2. Maple Finance ($SYRUP) – Decentralized Corporate Credit Market Built on Solana & Ethereum Maple Finance ($SYRUP) is up 18.16% since yesterday, following the easing of the risk of a larger, wider Israel-Iran war. Put simply, Maple Finance is a decentralized corporate credit market. Operating on Solana and Ethereum, it offers an efficient bridge for borrowers to access unsecured capital while providing lucrative yield opportunities for lenders. The entire lending process, from loan origination to repayment, is recorded on-chain to ensure transparency and accountability. $SYRUP, previously known as $MPL, is a utility and governance token that powers the Maple Finance ecosystem. Upon buying the token, it can be staked to earn a portion of the revenue generated from loan originations and interest payments. Plus, you can participate in critical decisions regarding free structures and new product rollouts. You can buy $SYRUP on some of the best crypto exchanges , including Binance and MEXC , for roughly $0.60. 3. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Layer 2 to Boost Bitcoin’s Speed, Scalability & dApp Power $HYPER is the utility token of Bitcoin Hyper, an innovative Layer 2 (L2) network designed to solve the Bitcoin network’s biggest challenges – limited scalability, slow transactions, and high fees. Also launching in Q3 2025, it will integrate the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to enable lightning-fast smart contracts and scalable dApps on top of Bitcoin’s secure base layer. To connect seamlessly with Bitcoin’s mainnet, the network will use a canonical bridge . This means you’ll be able to wrap and transfer $BTC into the Hyper ecosystem. What’s more, the protocol operates on its own Proof-of-Stake (PoS) validator network. It’s being built to handle transactions and smart contracts with high efficiency and sustainability. Considering that $HYPER sets 30% of its total token supply to development, the L2 should materialize as promised and only improve over time. $SNORT is already attracting significant attention, raising $1.6M in its presale. Early whale buyers of $74.9K , $54.1K , and $53.9K have added to the buzz. Right now, you can buy $HYPER on presale for just $0.012025. You can also stake it at a sizable 481% APY. You can also anticipate possible gains of up to 2,561%, as its price might reach $0.32 following the L2’s launch this year. New Crypto to Buy Amid Geopolitical Uncertainty While the Iran-Israeli truce remains fragile, the crypto market is responding positively to the ceasefire, even though it may only be temporary. As fears of a full-scale war ease, investors are once again turning their attention to risk-on strategies. In turn, this has fueled a rebound in crypto stocks, making now a favorable time to invest in crypto. Are you interested in a new crypto trading bot, passive income through interest payments, or unlocking Bitcoin’s full potential? If so, $SNORT , $SYRUP, and $HYPER each have high-profit potential. This isn’t investment advice. Always do your homework and only invest what you can afford to lose.

Ripple Was Born Before Bitcoin? 2004 Evidence Shocks Crypto Community

The post Ripple Was Born Before Bitcoin? 2004 Evidence Shocks Crypto Community appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News A newly surfaced document shared by XRP community member SMOQE has caught the crypto world by surprise – suggesting that Ripple’s roots go all the way back to 2004, four years before Bitcoin was created. The document includes a 2014 email exchange between several industry insiders, including tech journalist Reutzel Bailey. In it, Bailey points out that Ripple’s concept existed even before Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin whitepaper in 2008, raising new questions about who really started the digital finance revolution. 2014 E-mails confirm: “Ripple is older than Bitcoin.” pic.twitter.com/9c8cOF4065 — SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) June 24, 2025 Ripple’s Early Days According to Bailey, it was Ryan Fugger who first came up with Ripple in 2004. He created a platform called RipplePay to let people move value peer-to-peer, without relying on banks. However, it was Chris Larsen, now Ripple’s co-founder, who later took the project to the next level. Bailey believes Larsen tapped into the growing hype around Bitcoin to reframe Ripple as a cryptocurrency. “Larsen pushed this [Ripple] as a cryptocurrency to catch attention because the platform itself was not really about cryptocurrency at all,” Bailey said. Debunking the Copycat Myth The email conversation also dismantles claims that Ripple mimicked Bitcoin. Industry voice Jeffrey Cliff firmly stated , “Ripple predates Bitcoin,” countering concepts of Ripple as a “ copycat math-based currency .” Furthermore, Ripple’s concept emerged in 2004, and its cryptocurrency, XRP, was launched in 2012, which was four years after Bitcoin’s 2008 debut. This timeline firms Bitcoin as the first cryptocurrency, even as Ripple claims an earlier ideological spark. From RipplePay to the XRP Ledger In 2011, developers Jed McCaleb, Arthur Britto, and David Schwartz began building the XRP Ledger (XRPL). They aimed to create something more efficient than Bitcoin, especially by avoiding its energy-heavy proof-of-work system. McCaleb reached out to Fugger and convinced him to turn RipplePay into a crypto network. That led to the creation of NewCoin in 2012, which was soon renamed OpenCoin , and later simply Ripple . The XRPL creators gave 80 billion XRP to Ripple. McCaleb personally received 9.5 billion XRP, which he sold off gradually – completing his exit in 2022. After leaving Ripple, he went on to co-found Stellar. Meanwhile, Chris Larsen stayed on and still serves as Ripple’s chairman today. A Legacy Beyond Bitcoin While Bitcoin may hold the title of the first true cryptocurrency, Ripple’s earlier origins show that the idea of decentralized value transfer was already taking shape years before. Today, as Ripple continues to innovate in cross-border payments, this rediscovered history adds depth to its role in the crypto world, reminding us that Ripple wasn’t just another Bitcoin competitor, but possibly one of the first to imagine a world beyond banks.

ProCap BTC’s Bold Move: Anthony Pompliano’s Firm Files SEC 8-K for Monumental Public Listing and $1 Billion Bitcoin Acquisition

BitcoinWorld ProCap BTC’s Bold Move: Anthony Pompliano’s Firm Files SEC 8-K for Monumental Public Listing and $1 Billion Bitcoin Acquisition The cryptocurrency world is buzzing with anticipation as a significant development unfolds, signaling a deepening convergence between traditional finance and the burgeoning digital asset space. At the heart of this excitement is the latest move by ProCap BTC , a firm founded by the influential American entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano , which has officially initiated steps to become a publicly traded entity. This strategic maneuver promises to reshape the landscape of institutional crypto investment, bringing a prominent Bitcoin advocate’s vision to the public markets. Understanding the Significance of This SEC Filing : What Does an 8-K Mean? An 8-K filing is a crucial document submitted by public companies to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It’s essentially a ‘current report’ that companies must file to announce major events that shareholders should know about. For ProCap BTC, this 8-K filing is not just a formality; it’s a declaration of intent, outlining their strategic merger with Columbus Circle Capital Corp. This move is a pivotal step towards establishing ProCap Financial as a new publicly traded entity, set to list under the ticker symbol CCCM. This type of filing is typically used for significant corporate events, such as changes in control, acquisitions, or in this case, a definitive merger agreement that paves the way for a public listing. The SEC’s oversight in such mergers ensures transparency and investor protection. While the crypto space often operates with a degree of decentralization, any entity seeking to bridge into traditional capital markets must navigate stringent regulatory frameworks. ProCap BTC’s proactive engagement with the SEC demonstrates a commitment to legitimacy and compliance, which could set a precedent for other crypto-native firms eyeing public markets. This regulatory dance is complex, given the SEC’s evolving stance on digital assets. For a company primarily focused on Bitcoin, which the SEC generally considers a commodity, the path might be clearer than for those dealing with tokens deemed securities. Nevertheless, the entire process, from initial filings to eventual listing, demands meticulous adherence to corporate governance and disclosure standards. This adherence to regulatory processes is vital for building trust among institutional investors and the broader public, who may still view the crypto market with skepticism. It signifies a maturation of the industry, moving from niche speculative assets to mainstream financial instruments. The very act of filing an 8-K signals a company’s readiness to open its books and operations to public scrutiny, a level of transparency often missing in the earlier, less regulated days of crypto. It also provides a foundational legal document for the upcoming public listing, outlining the terms and conditions of the merger and the future operational structure of ProCap Financial. Who is Anthony Pompliano and Why Does His Vision for ProCap BTC Matter? Anthony Pompliano, widely known as ‘Pomp,’ is a prominent figure in the Bitcoin and broader cryptocurrency community. A former Facebook and Snapchat product manager, Pomp transitioned into venture capital and became a vocal advocate for Bitcoin. His influence stems from his engaging content, including his popular ‘Pomp Podcast’ and his active presence on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter). He has consistently championed Bitcoin as a store of value, a hedge against inflation, and a revolutionary technology capable of disrupting traditional financial systems. His early and consistent support for Bitcoin, even during bear markets, has cemented his reputation as a thought leader in the space, earning him a loyal following among crypto enthusiasts and traditional investors alike. ProCap BTC, under Pompliano’s leadership, was established with a clear vision: to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the digital asset economy. The firm has consistently emphasized strategic investment in Bitcoin, reflecting Pompliano’s long-held belief in the cryptocurrency’s long-term potential. This public listing isn’t just about capital; it’s about amplifying ProCap BTC’s mission and making institutional-grade Bitcoin exposure more accessible to a wider array of investors. It’s a move that aligns with his broader narrative of Bitcoin’s inevitable integration into mainstream finance, demonstrating a tangible step towards that future. Pomp’s involvement lends significant credibility to ProCap BTC’s endeavors. His ability to articulate complex crypto concepts to a broad audience, combined with his network in both tech and finance, positions ProCap BTC uniquely for this ambitious public offering. His personal brand is intrinsically linked to the firm’s identity, attracting both retail and institutional interest. When a figure like Pompliano, with his track record and conviction, throws his weight behind such a significant corporate action, it resonates deeply within the crypto community and beyond, signaling confidence in the asset class and potentially inspiring others to follow suit. How Will ProCap BTC Navigate Its Journey to a Public Listing ? The planned merger with Columbus Circle Capital Corp. is the chosen vehicle for ProCap BTC’s public debut. Mergers with existing public shell companies or Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) have become a popular route for private companies to go public faster than a traditional IPO. While specific financial terms of the merger are still being finalized and will be detailed in subsequent filings, the strategic alignment with Columbus Circle Capital Corp. suggests a synergy aimed at leveraging existing public market infrastructure. Columbus Circle Capital Corp. likely brings a pre-existing public shell, potentially streamlining the listing process and reducing the time and cost associated with a traditional initial public offering (IPO), which can often be a lengthy and expensive undertaking. Upon finalization, the combined entity will operate under the name ProCap Financial, a strategic rebranding that reflects its broader financial ambitions beyond just Bitcoin. This new name signals a potential expansion into other digital asset classes or related financial services in the future, positioning the company as a comprehensive player in the evolving financial landscape. The choice of CCCM as the ticker symbol for the Nasdaq or NYSE listing is a crucial identifier, providing investors with a clear, accessible way to trade shares of the new company. This transition from a private firm to a publicly traded entity introduces new layers of scrutiny, reporting requirements, and corporate governance. Public companies are subject to quarterly and annual reporting, stricter auditing, and greater transparency requirements, which ultimately benefit investors by providing more comprehensive information and accountability. The benefits of going public for ProCap Financial are multi-faceted and extend beyond just raising capital. They include: Enhanced Capital Access: Public companies can raise significant capital through stock offerings, which can fuel growth, expansion, and large-scale investments like the planned Bitcoin acquisition. This capital can also be used for research and development, hiring top talent, or acquiring other businesses, providing a robust financial foundation for future endeavors. Increased Visibility and Credibility: A public listing brings greater public awareness and legitimacy, attracting a wider range of investors, including institutional funds that often have mandates to invest only in publicly traded entities. This increased profile can also enhance business partnerships and customer trust, opening doors to new opportunities. Liquidity for Early Investors: Going public provides an exit strategy for early investors and employees, allowing them to convert their stakes into liquid assets. This liquidity is a strong incentive for venture capitalists and angel investors who typically seek a clear path to realizing returns on their investments, making future fundraising easier. Talent Attraction: Publicly traded companies can offer stock options and other equity incentives, making them more attractive to top talent in a competitive market. The ability to offer publicly traded stock as compensation can be a powerful recruitment tool, helping to build a strong and experienced team. Improved Governance: Public companies typically adopt more robust corporate governance structures to comply with regulatory requirements, which can lead to better decision-making and accountability. This often results in a more disciplined and professionally managed organization. The Audacious Plan: A $1 Billion Bitcoin Acquisition Strategy One of the most compelling aspects of ProCap BTC’s public offering is its previously stated ambition to acquire up to $1 billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC). This is not merely a passive investment; it’s a strategic move that underscores the firm’s conviction in Bitcoin’s role as a long-term store of value and a hedge against inflation. Such a substantial acquisition would position ProCap Financial as a significant institutional holder of Bitcoin, alongside major players like MicroStrategy, various Bitcoin spot ETFs, and other corporate treasuries that have added BTC to their balance sheets. This scale of investment reflects a strong bullish outlook on Bitcoin’s future price performance and its increasing acceptance as a legitimate asset class, signaling confidence in its digital gold narrative. The methods for this acquisition could vary, potentially including direct spot purchases from exchanges, over-the-counter (OTC) deals to minimize market impact, or even strategic investments in Bitcoin mining operations. Given the scale, a diversified approach is likely to manage execution risk and price volatility. The firm might also explore options like dollar-cost averaging (DCA) to mitigate volatility risks over time, or structured products to gain exposure without directly holding the underlying asset, though direct holding seems to be the stated intent. OTC desks are often preferred for large institutional buys to prevent significant price slippage that could occur from placing large orders on open exchanges, ensuring a more efficient and less disruptive acquisition process. A $1 billion Bitcoin acquisition by a publicly traded entity like ProCap Financial would send a strong signal to the market. It reinforces the narrative of institutional adoption, demonstrating that sophisticated investors are increasingly comfortable allocating significant capital to digital assets. This influx of capital could provide substantial buying pressure for Bitcoin, potentially influencing its price trajectory and overall market sentiment. It also serves as a validation for other corporations and institutions considering similar moves, further legitimizing Bitcoin as a treasury asset and an integral part of modern investment portfolios. The long-term implications for Bitcoin’s market capitalization and liquidity are substantial. Key Aspects of $1B BTC Acquisition Description Purpose Strategic long-term holding, balance sheet asset, institutional exposure to digital gold. Potential Methods Direct spot purchases, OTC deals, investments in mining infrastructure, structured products. Market Impact Increased institutional demand, potential price support, enhanced legitimacy for BTC, reduced supply on exchanges. Risk Factors Price volatility, evolving regulatory landscape, operational security for large holdings, market liquidity for such large buys. What are the Broader Implications for the Crypto Market and Beyond? ProCap BTC’s move is a microcosm of a larger trend: the increasing convergence of traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). As more crypto-native companies seek public listings and more traditional financial institutions offer crypto products, the lines between these two worlds blur. This integration brings both opportunities and challenges, including the need for robust regulatory frameworks that can accommodate innovation while protecting investors. The success of Bitcoin spot ETFs in the U.S. has already opened the floodgates for institutional capital, and ProCap Financial’s direct public listing takes this integration a step further, providing another regulated pathway for exposure. The SEC’s role is critical here. While they have been cautious with certain crypto products, particularly those deemed securities, their engagement with firms like ProCap BTC seeking public listing through traditional routes indicates a willingness to oversee and regulate legitimate operations. This could pave the way for clearer guidelines and more predictable pathways for other crypto businesses looking to enter mainstream finance. The ongoing dialogue between regulators and industry participants is crucial for fostering an environment where innovation can thrive within a secure and compliant framework. This public offering could serve as a case study for future crypto firms contemplating a similar path, potentially accelerating the mainstream adoption of digital assets. This development could inspire a wave of similar initiatives. We might see more crypto investment firms, blockchain technology companies, and even DeFi protocols exploring traditional public markets as a means to scale and attract broader capital. This maturation of the industry is crucial for its long-term sustainability and widespread adoption. It signifies a shift from the fringes of finance to its core, as digital assets become an undeniable part of global investment portfolios. The ripple effect could lead to greater liquidity, deeper markets, and ultimately, more stability for the entire crypto ecosystem, fostering a more robust and resilient digital economy. Challenges and Opportunities While the prospect of ProCap Financial’s public listing and substantial Bitcoin acquisition is exciting, it’s essential to consider both the potential hurdles and the vast opportunities that lie ahead: Challenges: Regulatory Scrutiny: Navigating complex and evolving SEC regulations, especially concerning crypto assets, remains a dynamic challenge. Market Volatility: The inherent volatility of Bitcoin can impact the company’s balance sheet, profitability, and investor confidence, requiring sophisticated risk management strategies. Competition: A growing number of Bitcoin investment vehicles and public companies in the crypto space means ProCap Financial will operate in a competitive environment. Operational Security: Ensuring the secure custody of a substantial Bitcoin holding is paramount and requires cutting-edge security protocols and practices. Public Perception: Managing public perception and educating traditional investors about the value proposition of digital assets will be ongoing tasks. Opportunities: First-Mover Advantage: Potentially establishing itself as a leading publicly traded Bitcoin investment vehicle, attracting early institutional capital. Institutional Inflow: Attracting significant capital from institutions seeking regulated exposure to Bitcoin without directly managing the complexities of crypto custody. Market Education: Helping to legitimize Bitcoin further in the eyes of mainstream investors and corporations, fostering broader acceptance. Innovation: Using public capital to fund further innovations in crypto financial products, services, and blockchain technology, driving future growth. Diversification: Offering a unique investment opportunity for portfolios looking to diversify into digital assets through a traditional stock market vehicle. Actionable Insights for Investors For investors interested in the crypto space but preferring traditional investment vehicles, ProCap Financial (CCCM) could offer a new avenue for exposure to Bitcoin. Here are some actionable insights: It’s crucial to conduct thorough due diligence on the company’s financial health, management team, and specific investment strategies once more details become publicly available through subsequent SEC filings (e.g., S-1 or F-1 registration statements). Monitor the broader regulatory environment for digital assets, as changes can significantly impact companies operating in this sector. Stay informed about SEC announcements and legislative developments. Consider the company’s long-term vision for its Bitcoin holdings and how it plans to manage volatility and security risks. Understand their approach to custody and risk mitigation. Evaluate the competitive landscape. How does ProCap Financial differentiate itself from existing Bitcoin ETFs or other publicly traded companies with significant Bitcoin holdings? As with any investment, consider your own risk tolerance and investment objectives before allocating capital to a company like ProCap Financial. The journey of ProCap BTC, from a visionary firm led by Anthony Pompliano to a publicly traded entity known as ProCap Financial, marks a significant milestone in the ongoing integration of digital assets into the global financial landscape. The ambitious plan for a $1 billion Bitcoin acquisition, coupled with the rigorous process of an SEC filing and public listing, underscores a growing confidence in Bitcoin’s enduring value and the maturation of the crypto industry. This development is not just a win for ProCap BTC; it’s a powerful testament to the transformative potential of cryptocurrency, paving the way for more institutional adoption and mainstream recognition. As ProCap Financial prepares to list under CCCM, the eyes of both the crypto and traditional financial worlds will be watching closely, anticipating the next chapter in this exciting narrative, and the profound impact it may have on the future of finance.

Google’s Quantum Computing Could Threaten Bitcoin Encryption, Warns NYDIG

The post Google’s Quantum Computing Could Threaten Bitcoin Encryption, Warns NYDIG appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Every time quantum computing advances, one question echoes across the crypto world: Is Bitcoin still secure? Google’s latest announcement has reignited that fear. The tech giant revealed a major leap in quantum capabilities, slashing the number of qubits needed to break RSA encryption from 20 million to just 1 million. That’s a massive jump, and it has sparked urgent debate about the future safety of Bitcoin’s cryptographic foundation . Table of contents What’s Happening with Quantum Computing? Understanding the Threat to Bitcoin Why RSA and Bitcoin’s Encryption Could Be at Risk Is Bitcoin Safe Right Now? Can Post-Quantum Cryptography Save Bitcoin? Conclusion: No Immediate Panic, But Urgent Preparation Needed FAQs What’s Happening with Quantum Computing? Quantum computing is no longer theoretical. Using principles like superposition and entanglement, these machines can process data in ways traditional computers can’t. Today’s quantum computers can operate with over 100 qubits, and advancements in error correction are making them increasingly stable and practical. The field is accelerating, and with it comes a looming concern: Can this tech break encryption standards like RSA—and eventually Bitcoin’s? Understanding the Threat to Bitcoin Bitcoin doesn’t use RSA. Instead, it relies on ECDSA and increasingly, Schnorr signatures, for cryptographic security. These offer multiple advantages: Smaller keys with equivalent security Faster processing Multi-signature aggregation for enhanced privacy But here’s the catch: According to a new report by the New York Digital Investment Group (NYDIG), these systems are not immune. As quantum computing progresses, even Bitcoin’s current cryptography may become vulnerable. Why RSA and Bitcoin’s Encryption Could Be at Risk RSA encryption is widely used and considered secure because it relies on the difficulty of factoring large numbers. That security was challenged in 1994 when Peter Shor introduced an algorithm capable of cracking RSA, if run on a sufficiently powerful quantum computer. Back then, such a machine didn’t exist. Today, we’re getting closer. With Google’s quantum milestone, that theoretical threat is beginning to look like a real-world problem. Is Bitcoin Safe Right Now? For now, yes. Bitcoin’s current cryptographic protections are strong enough against both classical and existing quantum computers. But the landscape is changing: Quantum hardware is improving rapidly Error correction is advancing Hybrid quantum-classical systems are being developed The clock is ticking. Bitcoin may be safe today—but without upgrades, that may not hold true in the next decade. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : She Thought It Was Love… Then Lost $430K in a Crypto Scam , Can Post-Quantum Cryptography Save Bitcoin? There is ongoing work in the field of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)—algorithms specifically designed to resist quantum attacks. But NYDIG’s report highlights some challenges: Larger keys and signatures Slower transaction speeds Reduced performance across the Bitcoin network This means that integrating PQC into Bitcoin is possible, but not without trade-offs in speed, efficiency, and scalability. Conclusion: No Immediate Panic, But Urgent Preparation Needed Bitcoin is not under threat today, but complacency is not an option. The takeaway from NYDIG and Google’s announcement is clear: the crypto industry must act now to ensure long-term security. Whether that means adopting post-quantum cryptographic standards or developing new protocols, the future of decentralized finance may depend on it. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

NYSE Breaks New Ground: Trump Media’s Crypto ETF Eyes Listing

NYSE Arca has officially submitted a rule change proposal (SR-NYSEArca-2025-45) to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), seeking approval to list the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF. The dual-asset fund, introduced last week by Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), seeks to provide direct exposure to both Bitcoin and Ether within a single investment vehicle. Source: NYSE The application, filed via SEC Form 19b-4 , represents the next step following the ETF’s initial prospectus submission, which proposed a 3-to-1 value allocation favoring Bitcoin over Ether. If approved, the ETF would trade under NYSE Arca Rule 8.201-E, which governs commodity-based trust shares. NYSE Seeks Rule Change to List Trump Media’s Bitcoin-Ethereum ETF As outlined in the filing, the fund is sponsored by Yorkville America Digital, LLC, with digital asset custody managed by Foris DAX Trust Company. Notably, pricing transparency will be provided through benchmark rates supplied by CF Benchmarks, a standard provider used in other SEC-approved ETFs. And also, the daily NAV, total holdings, and intraday indicative values will be published, with updates every 15 seconds during market hours. Trump Media filed with the SEC to launch a Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, while the Trump Organization unveiled a $499 U.S.-made smartphone. #trump #etf https://t.co/tFTibnN0lg — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) June 16, 2025 The fund’s creation and redemption process will occur in-kind, in blocks of 10,000 shares through authorized participants. This model allows the trust to deliver and receive Bitcoin and Ether directly, reducing potential tax implications and improving pricing efficiency. To meet SEC expectations for investor protection, NYSE Arca emphasized its membership in the Intermarket Surveillance Group (ISG) and cited reliance on market data from CME’s Bitcoin and Ether futures markets for pricing accuracy and fraud detection. The exchange also reaffirmed that it can apply existing market safeguards such as trading halts and compliance monitoring. NYSE Arca further emphasized that existing frameworks are sufficient to detect and prevent potential fraud or manipulation in the crypto markets. The proposed rule change must now go through the SEC’s formal review process. Once published in the Federal Register, the agency will open a comment period. The SEC will then decide to approve, reject, or extend the review timeline. If granted, the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum Trust would be one of the first U.S.-listed ETFs to offer simultaneous exposure to both Bitcoin and Ether. The move follows the SEC’s earlier approval of single-asset Bitcoin or Ethereum ETFs from BlackRock, Fidelity, and others. Trump Media Expands with Crypto ETF Ambitions Trump Media is moving closer to launching its Truth Social Bitcoin ETF, but the fund faces steep competition and trust hurdles in a crowded market. #TruthSocial #BitcoinETF https://t.co/oBIWgcH4CX — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) June 4, 2025 This is not the only ETF in development.
