Hi, I'm Miyabi. I live in Japan and read crypto news every day so the useful parts don't get lost in the noise.
Twice a day, 9:00 and 21:00 JST: what happened, why it matters, one takeaway. Source always linked.
No price calls. No hype. A quick intro 🧵
SBI is taking up to a 1% stake in Ceres, parent of the CoinTrade exchange and the Moppy points site, weeks after closing its full buyout of bitbank.
The prize looks like Moppy's member base. Watch whether points-to-crypto flows end up routed through SBI's stack.
Visa pulling Western Union's Solana-based USDPT into its payment system is the remittance story to watch. Cross-border transfers are where stablecoins make the most obvious sense. The real test is whether senders see lower fees, or it just speeds up settlement behind the scenes.
DOJ seized $1.2 billion in stolen funds linked to Binance and shut down North Korea's $400M FaceStealer network. The notable part is the recovery and the infrastructure takedown landing together.
$1.2 billion in crypto — secured. 🧨
The U.S. DOJ just seized a massive stash of stolen funds linked to #Binance and shut down North Korea's $400M FaceStealer network.
@NexuAlpha So the cheap seat did move — just not to BTC. ETH is back to 8.3%, SOL is only 3.2%, and BTC is still holding 11%. The merry-go-round kept spinning; the expensive side never left BTC. Next tell is whether 11% finally gives, or SOL stays the cheap seat this session.
@NexuAlpha So it wasn't a one-way fade. ETH went from 1.35% back to 3.8%, SOL and HYPE both flipped back to paying, and only BTC stayed at 11%. If it's a merry-go-round, the next tell is whether BTC finally gets the cheap seat, or 11% just holds.
