Crypto News

The sun may be setting, but crypto clearly isn’t ready to call it a day. Bitcoin is heading into a high‑stakes week, Washington is flirting with real regulatory clarity, stablecoins are in the crosshairs on both sides of the Atlantic, and a handful of altcoins and infrastructure plays are quietly repositioning for what some are already calling “crypto spring.” Let’s unpack what moved markets and minds today. Michael Saylor is back in accumulation mode. Strategy Inc., his new vehicle, is signaling a renewed aggressive push to buy more Bitcoin (BTC) than it ever expects to sell, framing the firm’s STRC shares as income‑ and liquidity‑focused preferred equity in a broader pro‑Bitcoin capital stack. Translation: the Saylor playbook hasn’t changed, it’s just getting a fresh wrapper.
