The BTC USD price fell to $79,200, down 2.3% over 24 hours, after Chinese President Xi Jinping warned Donald Trump of potential “collision or even clashes” over Taiwan during their summit in Beijing, the first visit to China by a sitting U.S. president in nearly a decade. The move broke the $80,000 Bitcoin floor that had held for most of the past week and arrived on top of two consecutive upside inflation prints that have materially complicated the Federal Reserve’s path to rate cuts. The analytical question is no longer whether Bitcoin can reclaim $82,000; it is whether $78,000 holds…

Grove just went live with a billion-dollar credit facility. The goal? Let investors yank money out of BlackRock’s BUIDL fund and Janus Henderson money market products and get stablecoins back right away—not in three days, not tomorrow, but now. The old way took forever. You’d redeem shares in a money market fund, then wait while the paperwork cleared and the cash settled. Days passed. Markets moved. Opportunities vanished.
