Polymarket suitgate: Zelenskyy’s NATO look divides crypto bettors

Polymarket, the cryptocurrency-based prediction market, has a market that was predicting whether or not Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy would “wear a suit before July.” This market was supposed to resolve positively if Zelenskyy “is photographed or videotaped wearing a suit between May 22 and June 30, 2025 ET.” This market has become extraordinarily controversial after Zelenskyy appeared at an event wearing a non-traditional suit. zelenskyy wears a suit while visiting germany. this is, technically, a suit, as a suit is just a garment where the jacket and pants have been cut from the same cloth pic.twitter.com/CjLXTzMMaA — derek guy (@dieworkwear) May 29, 2025 Read more: DOGE lies break Polymarket prediction market Zelenskyy attended a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) event on June 24 in a jacket and pants that appeared to be cut from the same fabric , though with a somewhat less traditional shape than classic Western ...

Ripple CEO on SEC case: ‘We’re closing this chapter once and for all’

Image
Blockchain firm Ripple is moving to formally conclude its long-running legal battle with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) following a series of recent setbacks. CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed that Ripple is dropping its cross-appeal, with the SEC expected to do the same, effectively bringing the case to a close, he said in an X post on June 28.  “Ripple is dropping our cross appeal, and the SEC is expected to drop their appeal, as they’ve previously said. We’re closing this chapter once and for all, and focusing on what’s most important – building the Internet of Value. Lock in,” he said.  This move comes just days after U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres rejected a joint motion from Ripple and the SEC that sought an indicative ruling to reduce a $125 million civil penalty.  The motion also aimed to overturn a prior finding that Ripple’s institutional XRP sales constituted unregistered securities offerings. XRP non-security status unchanged...

Barclays bans credit card crypto buying months after backing bitcoin ETF

Banking giant Barclays is prohibiting its customers from buying crypto using its credit cards this week, despite investing $131 million into BlackRock’s bitcoin (BTC) ETF holdings almost six months ago.  Barclays announced today that it will ban crypto transactions via Barclaycard on June 27 due to the “risks” of crypto, including its high volatility that can leave “customers finding themselves in debt they can’t afford to repay.”  It noted that crypto assets aren’t covered by UK compensatory schemes or the country’s Financial Ombudsman Service. The crypto ban comes just six months after Barclays decided to invest millions in buying shares in the iShares Bitcoin Trust on December 31. When asked to comment on the apparent change in attitude, Barclays told Protos, “Today’s move is specific to Barclaycard and our credit card customers.” BlackRock ETFs: Gold outperforms bitcoin in Trump’s second term Read more: BlackRock wants ...

Crypto Analyst Benjamin Cowen Predicts Multi-Month Correction for Bitcoin, Says Time To Rip Band-Aid Off for Altcoins

Image
A trader who continues to build a following with timely calls on Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins is issuing a warning on the broader crypto market. Crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen tells his 1 million followers on the social media platform X that he sees Bitcoin breaking support at $100,000. “Will likely see BTC back at its bull market support band soon, back in the mid-$90,000 range.” Source: Benjamin Cowen/X The bull market support band is formed by the 20-week simple moving average (SMA) and the 21-week exponential moving average (EMA). The analyst says his prediction is based on Bitcoin’s price action in the last two years, when Bitcoin started to roll over and gave up gains in the third quarter. “I’ve mentioned for a while on Youtube that Bitcoin would likely start exhibiting some weakness around mid-June as the Q3 weakness starts to present itself. The same thing happened the last couple of years. I think the next low is around Aug...

Best Altcoin Opportunities You Can Enter Today [2025 Breakout List]

Image
You and I both know this market doesn't move by logic alone. It moves by cycles, by headlines, and by noise. You’ve probably seen it too, one token no one’s heard of suddenly explodes in attention, and before you’ve had time to do real research, it’s already overhyped and overpriced. But here’s the thing most people ignore: the real momentum in crypto doesn't come from what's loud, it comes from what's quietly being built underneath . Think of it like urban development . The flashy billboards and luxury buildings go up last. But long before that, teams are laying down pipes, electricity grids, fiber optics. In crypto, the altcoins worth looking at are the ones laying digital infrastructure , not just pushing out announcements. We’re not talking about guessing who might pump next. We’re talking about understanding what’s already functional, what’s solving problems, and what’s designed to scale . These aren’t storie...
