The post Vanguard Digital Assets Lead New Strategy Shift appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
For years, Vanguard was the firm that wouldn’t budge on crypto — the giant that blocked customers from buying spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs while rivals raced to launch their own. Now, the Vanguard digital assets story is moving in a very different direction. Key takeaways Vanguard is actively searching for a head of digital assets to build and lead its strategy on tokenization, stablecoins, blockchain infrastructure, and client-facing products. The new executive will develop a multi-year digital asset roadmap and represent Vanguard in regulatory and industry discussions. As recently as August 2024, CEO Salim Ramji stated Vanguard would not launch crypto ETFs, calling it a matter of not copying competitors. In December 2025, Vanguard quietly reversed course on access, allowing brokerage clients to trade crypto ETFs and mutual funds on its platform. Vanguard manages approximately $12.5 trillion i
The post Here’s why XRP’s RWA market is now 4x larger than its entire ETF sector appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Institutional positioning around Ripple appears to be taking a different path. The key takeaway is that this isn’t the usual whale accumulation or strategic buyback designed to create scarcity and fuel a sudden parabolic move. Instead, the focus seems to be shifting toward growing conviction in XRPL’s infrastructure, with tokenization momentum increasingly becoming the main theme. As the chart below shows, around $4 billion in tokenized RWAs are now live on XRPL, spanning more than 500 products. More importantly, there are already early examples of institutional usage. Earlier this year, a treasury redemption involving JPMorgan Chase, Ondo Finance, and Mastercard was settled on XRPL in roughly four seconds, according to the companies involved.

The post After His Gold Blunder, Robert Kiyosaki Issues a Surprising Recommendation appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Robert Kiyosaki issued a fresh recommendation amid ongoing market turbulence, steering attention away from traditional safe havens like Bitcoin and commodities. Instead, he wants followers to study big systemic change. Here is what the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad now recommends, why he shifted his focus, and how critics are reacting. What Robert Kiyosaki Recommends Instead of Bitcoin and Gold The recommendation is not an asset but a book about financial collapse and wealth transfer. In a recent post on X, Kiyosaki highlighted “The Entropy Trap” by Mickey M. Maini as the essential read for this moment in history. The book carries a foreword by Jim Rickards, a name Kiyosaki often cites. Furthermore, he explained that it reveals how trust-dependent assets could collapse as faith in traditional financial systems steadily erodes worldwide. Follow us on X to get the latest

The post Ethereum is losing ownership of crypto payments as Base moves $565B in stablecoins appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Stablecoin activity is becoming a contest over which blockchains move the most tokenized dollars. Visa Onchain Analytics showed that the adjusted stablecoin transaction volume reached about $1.79 trillion in June, surpassing its February high and rising sharply from May. The key network split was tight: Base ranked first at about $565 billion in adjusted volume, just ahead of Ethereum at roughly $562 billion. While the edge Base might have over Ethereum might be small, it’s still a significant achievement. Base is a layer-2 network built around cheaper, faster Ethereum activity. When it rises to the top of an adjusted stablecoin flow table, it shifts attention from token supply to payment distribution: wallets, fees, app integrations, and settlement availability. Visa’s dashboard separates adjusted and unadjusted activity because raw blockchain volume can inc

The post New Hampshire Bitcoin Bond Nears Final Vote, But There is a Catch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
New Hampshire’s Executive Council is holding a public hearing this Wednesday on $100 million in bonds financing private Bitcoin (BTC) purchases. Approval would clear the last governmental hurdle for the first municipal bond collateralized by Bitcoin. However, Bitcoin’s winter drawdown cut its price by more than half. This deal enters mandatory liquidation after a roughly 12.5% slide. That gap, rather than the vote, may decide how the experiment ends. Bitcoin Price Performance. Source: BeinCrypto New Hampshire Bitcoin Bond Takes the Conduit Route The New Hampshire Business Finance Authority (BFA) requested the hearing under state statute RSA 162-I. Executive Director James Key-Wallace asked Governor Kelly Ayotte and the five-member council to determine whether the project is feasible and beneficial. If approved, the BFA will issue taxable conduit revenue bonds, meaning the sta
