Robinhood reported its Q3 earnings on Tuesday evening, and the headline numbers missed. Revenue hit a record $1.42 billion, just under the $1.43 billion analysts expected. Earnings per share came in at $0.51 against a $0.55 forecast. Crypto revenue fell 55% year over year to $120 million.Yet the call told a different story. Vlad Tenev said Robinhood Chain has outrun every internal forecast, and Robinhood now plans to ramp up its investment in the chain. HOOD stock dropped around 7%, while Robinhood Chain tokens jumped 20% to 60% overnight.Yesterday we covered the Ripple and Robinhood partnership and flagged the earnings…

The FOMC October 28 decision drops today at 2:00 PM ET (18:00 UTC). Markets expect the Fed to hold rates at 3.75% to 4.00%. CME FedWatch prices that hold at roughly 90%, while a December hike sits near 73%. Kevin Warsh starts his press conference at 2:30 PM ET.So the decision itself is unlikely to move much. Instead, the real trade is the tone. I covered the full week calendar on Monday in the Bitcoin 79K post. Today is about the decision itself: why Fed days get so volatile, what to watch, three Bitcoin scenarios, and where my longs stand.What…

Exit liquidity in crypto is the money from late buyers that lets early holders and insiders sell their tokens at a profit. When someone says “you are the exit liquidity,” they mean your buy order is what allows them to cash out. In other words, the term describes people, not a pool.It is one of the most useful ideas in meme coin trading. Once you understand it, a lot of hype starts to look different. You will also find it in our meme coin glossary with the other holder terms.Why Big Holders Need YouSelling a large bag is harder than…

Cobie, real name Jordan Fish, is a British crypto trader, angel investor, co-founder of Lido, co-host of the UpOnly podcast, and founder of the fundraising platform Echo. Coinbase bought Echo in October 2025 for around $375 million and in July 2026 put him in charge of the Base app and its whole trading product suite. He started as a professional online poker player who put a couple of hundred dollars into Bitcoin in 2013.That last line is why this profile is personal for me. This one covers how he went from grinding poker to running product at a public company,…

Ripple and Robinhood announced a strategic partnership on October 27. The deal makes Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin a key dollar token across Robinhood’s crypto business. RLUSD is already live on Robinhood Chain and Bitstamp by Robinhood. Next, it should reach the main Robinhood app later this year.That is the short answer. However, the deal goes deeper than one stablecoin listing. Robinhood will also run parts of its own treasury on Ripple software and expand financing through Ripple Prime. Here is what changed, and what it actually means for XRP.What Ripple and Robinhood AnnouncedThe partnership has three parts. First, RLUSD becomes a…

Kraken HIP-3 is the short name for a plan that just got real. On October 26, Hyperliquid named Payward, Kraken’s parent company, as its intended first CFTC-regulated deployer on HIP-3*. In plain terms, Payward wants to run US-regulated perp markets that match trades on Hyperliquid’s onchain order book. However, there is still no regulatory approval, no launch date and no HIP-3* mainnet.We first covered this story in August, when Bloomberg broke the talks. That first chapter lives in our Hyperliquid Bitnomial deal post. Since then, the plan has gone from rumor to press release to an official co-sign. Today’s news…

Keystone just confirmed a security incident on its official website. Customer names and home addresses leaked. Worse, the attacker also walked away with the key Keystone uses to prove its devices are genuine.Short answer: The Keystone data breach exposed 25,964 buyer records from its Shopify store, plus 12,873 unpaid checkout records. Names, contact details and shipping addresses leaked. The attacker also stole the WebAuth key behind Keystone’s device authenticity check. Recovery phrases and private keys stayed out of reach, so your coins are not directly at risk.Below, I cover what leaked, which devices need a second check, and the scams…

Lose to earn is an airdrop meta where a protocol mints its token to traders who lose money on it. The loss funds the platform, the loser gets tokens, and staking those tokens pays out a share of future losses. PaperTrade invented the term in October 2026, and nine days later its stakers had collected more than $52 million in USDC. That speed is why I think it spreads.Every meta starts as one weird project. Points were a Blur experiment before every protocol copied them. Lose to earn is at that same stage now. This post covers what it is,…
