Scroll, one of Ethereum's best-known Layer-2 networks, is proposing a radical change of direction. A proposal posted to the Scroll DAO forum on November 3, 2026, and reported on November 4, would turn the permissionless, general-purpose zkEVM network into a permissioned, application-specific privacy-AI network. As part of the same plan, the network's SCR token would migrate to Ethereum mainnet,...
Brazil's biggest exchange has suffered one of the largest crypto thefts of the year, and the numbers are still moving. Mercado Bitcoin was breached in the early hours of November 2, 2026, with the largest outflows occurring between 06:19 and 06:53 UTC. Deposits and withdrawals were paused, and they remain suspended with no reopening date announced.
The exchange itself has put the loss at...
Bitcoin is trading at about $80,768 on November 5, up 0.4% since midnight UTC, in a day range of $80,217 to $80,890. That calm surface hides a sharp rejection and a sharp recovery. Sellers pushed price below $76,000, swept CME futures lows at $75,795, with spot lows at $76,260 to $76,450, and still failed to hold the breakdown. Futures then closed at $77,905, and price ran back to $81,460....
On November 3, 2026, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission opened a door Wall Street and crypto have both been knocking on for years. CFTC Chairman Michael Selig said perpetual futures on individual stocks — which the agency calls "Equity Perps" — can begin trading on US-regulated exchanges for the first time. The announcement does not, by itself, put a single new contract on...
AppLovin did almost everything right in the third quarter of 2026 — and still missed the number Wall Street was watching. The advertising-technology company posted record results: net income up 72% year on year to $1.44 billion, on revenue of $2.18 billion, up 55% year on year, with industry-leading 66% net margins. Basic and diluted earnings per share came in at $4.31 and $4.30, narrowly...
Gold reclaimed $4,000 — then pushed past $4,100. It rose 3.63% from Tuesday's close of $3,921.34 to $4,063.84, its first close above $4,000 since October 29, after a low of $3,914.40 and a high of $4,070.43. Friday's close had been $3,875.18, so the round trip — below $4,000, then back above it in a single session — is a sharp reversal. By the Asian session on November 5, gold...
Buying Bitcoin in Pakistan in 2026 does not work the way it works in the US or Europe. There is no local rupee on-ramp on a major exchange, no bank card that buys BTC directly, and no State Bank protection if a deal goes wrong. What Pakistan does have is one of the world's busiest peer-to-peer markets: ordinary people buying USDT with JazzCash and Easypaisa, then swapping it for Bitcoin. This...
Memecoins are the highest-risk asset class in all of crypto. Estimates put the share of memecoins that eventually go to zero at 95-99%, and the survivors can still drop 50% in an afternoon. Yet people keep trading them, because the upside is real too. The difference between traders who last and traders who get rekt is rarely the coin they pick — it is the process around the trade. This...
Providing liquidity to a decentralised exchange sounds like free money: deposit two tokens, earn a share of every trade's fee, and watch the yield roll in. Many first-time liquidity providers get a shock instead — they withdraw less value than they would have had by simply holding the same tokens in their wallet. That gap has a name: impermanent loss. It is the single most misunderstood...
