AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoETF Flows & Macro Jitters: Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw heavy outflows (~$465M over July 23–24) as rate-hike fears and CLARITY Act uncertainty kept momentum fragile, even as BTC held around the $65K area amid a brief risk-on lift after the U.S. and Iran paused strikes. Geopolitics Moves Markets: Oil slid more than 5% on de-escalation hopes, and crypto followed the calmer mood before retreating from the $67K zone. EU Sanctions Tighten the Net: The EU adopted its 21st Russia package, adding hundreds of targets and tightening rules affecting crypto networks and the shadow fleet; HTX was also sanctioned. Security & Custody Risks: Garden Finance took its app offline after a solver database compromise drained about $450K in USDT; Triple-A confirmed unauthorized access to treasury wallets (~$11.8M) with client funds unaffected. Exchange Shutdowns: BitMart began an orderly wind-down (trading ends Aug. 26), following BitMEX’s earlier closure plans—another reminder to watch counterparty risk. Regulation Watch: MiCA’s latest phase is pushing more mergers and partnerships, while U.S. CLARITY Act debate remains stuck near the August recess deadline. Stablecoin Adoption: Bitget Wallet topped 100M users, with Nigeria driving major stablecoin inflows.
