🔔 Hungary scraps crypto validator checks to align with MiCA framework

⚠️ Hungary has removed its controversial cryptocurrency validator requirement after lawmakers voted to repeal the rule, clearing the way for crypto firms including CoinCash to restore services under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework.Finance Minister Kármán András said the government decided to eliminate the requirement after the previous framework disrupted the domestic crypto market and led several companies to withdraw or suspend their services.

⭐️ The repeal removes an additional transaction approval layer that existed alongside MiCA while leaving the country’s licensing and compliance obligations for crypto asset service providers unchanged. The validator requirement originated under Hungary’s 2024 crypto assets law, which introduced a separate compliance process for selected cryptocurrency transactions.

⚡️ After the rules took effect on July 1, 2025, crypto-to-fiat and crypto-to-crypto conversions covered by the framework required approval from a licensed local validator before they could proceed. Validators had to examine the origin of digital assets, confirm wallet ownership, verify customer identities, and issue a compliance declaration before transactions could receive legal recognition.

🕯 How does Glimpse actually work? Here's the short version

Instead of buying or shorting Bitcoin, you pick the price range you think Bitcoin will land in. If the market settles inside your forecasted range, you earn a Bitcoin payout

💸 That means you can find opportunities whether Bitcoin rises, falls, or trades sideways!

That's it. No leverage, no liquidations to worry about, just your read on where price is headed.

A few things worth knowing:

🔸 Works in any market condition, trending or flat
🔸 Payouts are in Bitcoin, not points or credits
🔸 You can see the crowd's forecast too which provides useful context before you commit to yours
🔸 Deposits and withdrawals go through Lightning, so it's fast

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and Gold markets are all live now — with more assets on the way.

This type of market is very early. Understand it before it's everywhere.

📌 Galaxy says Ethereum, Solana may rethink token inflation models

⚠️ Galaxy Research Vice President Lucas Tcheyan said on Aug. 7 that Ethereum and Solana are confronting a similar policy question: how much token issuance is needed to pay for network security, and when does that security budget become more costly than useful? The debate is moving through proposal processes on both networks, but neither blockchain has approved an inflation change.

📣 One important update concerns Ethereum’s proposal number. Galaxy initially referred to the Tapered Issuance Burn proposal as EIP-8361. Ethereum’s EIP editors later assigned it EIP-8363 because EIP-8361 had already been allocated elsewhere. The EIP-8363 pull request remained open as of Aug. 9, and an editor requested changes on Aug. 6.

⭐️ EIP-8363 would burn a growing share of consensus layer validator rewards as Ethereum’s staking ratio rises. The burn fraction would reach 100% around a 50% staking ratio, removing new issuance as an incentive for additional staking beyond that level. The authors propose an 18 month transition because applying the full mechanism immediately would sharply reduce validator returns.

🌐 Coinbase, Ripple to join Aug. 19 White House crypto meeting

🔔 Coinbase and Ripple executives have been named among the expected attendees at an Aug. 19 White House meeting involving at least six crypto and prediction market companies. The report did not identify the individual executives who will represent each firm. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse have both supported the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, which remains stalled in the Senate after lawmakers left Washington for their August recess.

⚠️ CFTC Chairman Michael Selig and SEC Chairman Paul Atkins are also expected to participate, according to people familiar with the planning. Neither the White House nor the two regulators had published a formal agenda for the meeting at the time of writing. For Coinbase and Ripple, the meeting comes before a scheduled Senate test for legislation that could decide how the two main U.S. market regulators divide responsibility for digital assets.

‼️ The CLARITY Act would place spot markets for qualifying digital commodities under CFTC oversight while keeping crypto assets classified as securities within the SEC’s authority. It would also establish federal requirements for exchanges, brokers, dealers, advisers, and digital asset custodians. American investors could be directly affected by that division because a token’s regulatory status can determine where it may trade, which disclosures apply, and whether a platform must register with the SEC or comply with CFTC market rules.

🔔 Bitcoin Price Prediction: BlackRock Just Cut Its Bitcoin ETF Minimum by 96%

➡️ Bitcoin is sitting roughly 30% below where it started the year, a level that would normally trigger a negative price prediction. Instead, BlackRock is doubling down, and the details behind that conviction matter more than the headline drawdown. The asset manager’s latest framing treats Bitcoin’s slide from October’s $126,000 peak as a leverage unwind, not a verdict on the asset itself.

🔖 Roughly 80% of the $90 billion in crypto futures open interest near the top came from unregulated perpetual contracts, and when tariff shocks hit risk assets, that positioning liquidated fast. Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin ETPs just posted their strongest inflow week since mid-April, about $853 million, with BlackRock’s IBIT alone pulling in $693-854 million and adding over 9,000 BTC.

🌐 BTC is consolidating in a tight band, roughly $63,200 to $65,340, with price sitting near the lower-middle of that range. Volume has picked up alongside ETF inflow data, suggesting institutional buyers are stepping in near current levels rather than chasing strength. Sustained ETF inflows, combined with cooling CPI data, push BTC through $65,340 resistance and open a path back toward $70,000 as decoupling from equities strengthens.

⚡️ Bitcoin Forecasting: Accurate Range Calls Can Pay Out at 5X or More

💸 Most traders only profit when Bitcoin makes a decisive move in one direction. Glimpse works differently — instead of buying or shorting, you forecast the price range Bitcoin will trade in. The more accurate and precise your forecast, the higher the potential payout, with some markets offering 5X+ odds on a correct call.

🔖 That structure changes the incentive entirely. A tighter, more precise range means a bigger payout if you get it right, and the mechanism works whether Bitcoin is climbing, falling, or stuck in a narrow band — there's a forecast for every scenario, not just breakouts.

🌐 Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and Gold markets are all live now. Deposits and withdrawals run on Lightning, so payouts land fast, and Glimpse is licensed by the Bermuda Monetary Authority under the Digital Asset Business Act — positioning it as compliance-first as forecasting markets move into the mainstream.

📌 Vesu oracle incident triggers $3M in liquidations

🔖 Starknet lending protocol Vesu has reported that a faulty Pragma price feed triggered the abnormal liquidation of 47 positions holding $3 million in collateral on Sept. 4. Vesu said in a Sept. 5 incident disclosure that the liquidations occurred between 04:08 and 04:10 UTC on Sept. 4 after an upstream price source operated by Pragma supplied incorrect data.

📊 During the two-minute incident, the faulty prices reached several Vesu liquidity pools and made 47 borrowing positions appear eligible for liquidation. Automated liquidators then removed approximately $3 million in collateral before the feed returned to the correct value. According to the protocol, the price source corrected itself within two minutes and has operated normally since then. Vesu did not identify the affected assets or provide a pool-by-pool breakdown in its initial statement.

🔗 The company also did not disclose how far the incorrect prices differed from market rates, the amount of debt attached to the liquidated positions, or how much collateral liquidators retained. A technical report covering the incident is expected to provide more information about the affected markets and the sequence of on-chain transactions. Pragma has since worked with the relevant organizations to deploy a fix addressing the source of the error, Vesu said. Liquidity pool curators suspended affected pools as a precaution, with Vesu expecting them to remove the restrictions after reviewing the fix.

🔔 Nasdaq invests $100 million in Kraken parent Payward at $21 billion valuation

⚠️ Nasdaq has agreed to invest $100 million in Kraken parent Payward as the two companies expand their work on tokenized equities, market surveillance and blockchain-based settlement infrastructure. The companies are working toward a second-quarter 2027 launch for Nasdaq Equity Tokens, or NETs, while Payward will deploy Nasdaq’s market surveillance technology across trading venues covering crypto, equities, tokenized equities, futures and options.

🔖 The investment builds on a partnership announced in March, when Nasdaq and Payward began developing infrastructure designed to connect regulated equity markets with blockchain networks through Payward’s xStocks ecosystem. Nasdaq Ventures invests in technology and market infrastructure that the exchange operator sees as relevant to the development of global capital markets. Its $100 million Payward investment gives the relationship a financial component alongside the companies’ existing technology work.

📊 Payward confidentially submitted a draft S-1 registration statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in November 2025. The company has not publicly disclosed a proposed ticker, share price, number of shares or exchange for a potential listing. Its latest financial results showed adjusted revenue of $508 million for the second quarter, up 17% from a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA fell to $23 million from $80 million, while total platform transaction volume declined 18% to $310 billion.
