The new ASSX fund offers 2x daily exposure to Strive shares, giving traders a leveraged way to bet on the Bitcoin treasury company.

In brief Over five days in August, Bitcoin rose 24.6% while coin-denominated open interest fell 12.6%, meaning the rally ran on unwinding short positions rather than fresh bullish bets. The options market flipped after 361 straight days of puts pricing richer than calls, and the front of the futures curve repriced while the long end held—signs of a one-off event, not a regime change. The data comes from a joint Glassnode-Bybit with numbers through August 23, covering four crypto-native venues, excluding CME. Bitcoin’s most violent rally of its two-year drawdown wasn’t powered by fresh bullish bets. It was powered by…

In brief The Senate failed to advance the Clarity Act in a 49-50 vote, with Democrats voting as a bloc and three Republicans joining them; the breakdown sparked finger-pointing, though seven negotiating Democrats called it “a setback, but not the end.” With industry fatigue mounting, attention has shifted from Congress to regulators, with figures like the Solana Policy Institute’s Kristin Smith calling agency guidance “the more viable path forward right now.” Both agencies are moving: SEC Chair Paul Atkins tied a new tokenized-stock innovation exemption to the bill’s failure, while the CFTC issued no-action relief and sent a broader crypto…

Bitcoin touched a high in October 2025 of $126,080 but was recently trading 40% lower than that, at $75,701.  “So the fair value of bitcoin today, based on…

Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chair Mike Selig has said that the top regulator will go ahead and use its powers to advance crypto legislation despite the Clarity Act being blocked.  In a Wednesday statement released on X, Selig said that the regulator would still help U.S. President Trump “get the job done.”  Lawmakers blocked the Clarity Act on Tuesday in a procedural vote, with the long-awaited legislation missing the 60 votes needed to advance it. The bill aims to formally divide oversight between regulators, distinguishing which digital assets are securities, commodities or stablecoins.  “Americans deserve regulatory clarity, legal certainty, and…

His bank is a reported lead underwriter on Anthropic’s coming stock market listing. Simkowitz spoke to CNBC on Wednesday and declined to discuss individual deals. AI Demand and Financing Will Keep Moving Spending on compute and chips is not stopping, he said. Nor is the financing behind that build. “I think the pause or the slowing of release on the frontier really doesn’t change the core dynamics,” Simkowitz…
