AMLBot data shows USDT issuer Tether’s freezes were roughly 30 times larger than USDC by value and address count. A new on-chain study published by the AMLBot team shows that Tether has frozen more than $3.29 billion in USDT across the Ethereum and Tron blockchains between 2023 and 2025, blacklisting 7,268 addresses in the process.

(They didn’t.) Compare that to something like Blue Prince, an original puzzle game that barely anyone had heard of before it hit storefronts this spring.There are other games that seem to better fit the indie designation, like Clair…

A widening gap between VC pricing and public market caps signals a reset after narrative-driven optimism cooled. Crypto venture capital firms poured billions into early-stage tokens during 2025’s risk-on rebound, but many of those bets are now trading far below their headline fundraising values. The growing gap between private funding numbers and public market caps highlights a market reset after narrative-driven optimism cooled. Data recently shared by CryptoRank shows dozens of well-funded projects losing hundreds of millions, and in some cases nearly all, of their implied value once tokens reached open markets, raising fresh questions about pricing discipline during bull…

That sequencing places Hegota tentatively in the second half of the year, continuing a faster cadence of protocol upgrades than Ethereum has historically maintained.The decision reflects a relatively new approach to Ethereum development, with core contributors aiming to ship network changes more frequently rather than bundling large…
