RWA

RWA (Real World Assets) refers to the tokenization of tangible assets—such as real estate, private credit, and government bonds—on the blockchain. By bringing traditional financial instruments on-chain, RWA protocols like Ondo and Centrifuge provide DeFi users with stable, real-yield opportunities. In 2026, the RWA sector is a multi-trillion-dollar bridge between TradFi and DeFi, enabling fractional ownership and global liquidity for previously illiquid assets.

Markets expect Lisa Cook to hold seat at the Fed with support from her team

Markets expect Lisa Cook to hold seat at the Fed with support from her team

The post Markets expect Lisa Cook to hold seat at the Fed with support from her team appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump said Monday from the White House that Lisa Cook was being removed from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, effective immediately. He claimed Lisa may have faked documents tied to a mortgage application. She hasn’t been charged. No court. No trial. No sentence. But Trump says the accusations are enough. Lisa, through her lawyer, responded just hours later, saying she’s not stepping down, and the Fed team is standing by her. “No cause exists under the law,” she said in a statement shared by attorney Abbe David Lowell. “I will not resign. I will continue to carry out my duties to help the American economy as I have been doing since 2022.” According to information in the initial legal filing, Lisa was reappointed in 2023 to a full term that’s supposed to run through January 2038. Lowell warned they will take “whatever actions are needed” to stop Trump’s “attempted illegal action.” Trump tries legal clause to kick Lisa out Trump used a section from the Fed’s original charter that lets a president remove a governor “for cause.” He claims the mortgage fraud accusations meet that threshold. Legal experts disagree, calling the move shaky. The clause hasn’t been tested like this before. If this works, it opens the door for Trump to remove more board members, and replace them with loyalists. Trump’s been slamming the institution for years. His target now is Lisa, but his pressure already broke through last week when Chair Jerome Powell gave in and signaled a future rate cut. Now, with Lisa in his sights, investors expect another wave of Trump picks, likely more dovish voices. Tony Sycamore, market analyst at IG in Sydney, called out the pressure. “Trump’s removal of Cook, following his relentless pressure on Fed Chair Jerome Powell that saw the…

“I Haven’t Been Right Yet” – Tim Draper Doubles Down on $250K Bitcoin Call

“I Haven’t Been Right Yet” – Tim Draper Doubles Down on $250K Bitcoin Call

The post “I Haven’t Been Right Yet” – Tim Draper Doubles Down on $250K Bitcoin Call appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin Tim Draper is once again making headlines for his ambitious Bitcoin outlook. In a recent interview, the veteran investor acknowledged that his long-standing call for Bitcoin to soar to $250,000 hasn’t come true yet. Instead of shying away, Draper laughed at the miss and emphasized that Bitcoin sitting at nearly half that mark is already a major achievement. A Prediction That Refuses to Die Back in 2018, Draper stunned markets with a bold claim: Bitcoin would hit $250,000 within four years. That timeline has long passed, yet he continues to stand by the target, simply moving the deadline forward as the market evolves. Previous crashes, most notably the 2022 collapse that dragged Bitcoin to $16,000, derailed the forecast but did not shake his conviction. Why He Still Believes For Draper, Bitcoin’s role is clear – it’s a hedge against economic mismanagement. He argues that mounting global uncertainty only strengthens the case for a decentralized asset that can operate outside of government control. “This is still the right time to hold Bitcoin,” he remarked, highlighting its resilience compared to traditional assets. He also compared Bitcoin’s position in crypto to a dominant operating system in tech: the base layer on which countless other innovations are being built. That expanding ecosystem, he says, creates a natural pull that keeps Bitcoin at the center of the industry. Market Reality vs. Forecast With Bitcoin currently trading around $111,000, Draper’s quarter-million target looks distant but not impossible. He has been right before – back in 2014, he correctly projected that Bitcoin would break $10,000 within three years. Whether history repeats itself on a much larger scale remains to be seen. Looking Ahead Despite competitors like Ethereum gaining ground, Draper believes Bitcoin’s appeal has only grown stronger compared to earlier market cycles. His optimism remains tied…

LILPEPE’s $22M buzz vs BlockDAG’s $383M presale power

LILPEPE’s $22M buzz vs BlockDAG’s $383M presale power

The post LILPEPE’s $22M buzz vs BlockDAG’s $383M presale power appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. As presales crowd the market, the split between hype and hard delivery is becoming obvious. Stage 11 is wrapped, bringing in more than $22 million. For a meme coin, that’s impressive traction. But alongside it, BlockDAG (BDAG) is operating on another level entirely. The project has raised over $383 million, moved 25 billion coins, and sits at $0.0276 in Batch 29, highlighting scale beyond meme-driven runs. LILPEPE thrives on cultural buzz, but BlockDAG pushes forward with tech that’s built to last. Its framework is about performance, speed, and real-world utility, qualities that matter when memes lose momentum. One is selling a story, the other is delivering architecture and output. As presales crowd the market, the split between hype and hard delivery is becoming obvious. LILPEPE grows fast, but utility still absent The LILPEPE presale is attracting plenty of chatter, raking in more than $22 million and releasing billions of coins during Stage 11. It’s anchored in Ethereum and draws heavily from the cultural force of Pepe fandom, giving it a strong brand push. Still, tangible utility is absent. There’s no functional mining app, no live dashboards, and no tech layer ready for user interaction. At present, its momentum is built more on clever branding and internet culture than actual infrastructure. That doesn’t erase the buzz; it simply highlights the gap between speculative fire and proven systems.   Meme projects are unpredictable: some…

Grid Batteries Are Now The Grid’s MVP

Grid Batteries Are Now The Grid’s MVP

The post Grid Batteries Are Now The Grid’s MVP appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. HOUSTON, TEXAS – AUGUST 16: Jupiter Powers battery storage complex is seen, Friday, Aug. 16, 2024, in Houston. The energy developer recently brought online the city’s first energy storage complex. (Jason Fochtman/Houston Chronicle via Getty Images) Houston Chronicle via Getty Images As the global energy system adds more intermittent renewables, one fact is becoming increasingly clear: Affordable, large-scale energy storage remains the enabling holy grail for these clean energy sources. Solar and wind are providing exponentially growing amounts of zero-carbon electricity, but they are still beholden to the weather and the rotation of the earth. The sun sets and the wind dies down, but the grid must still hum along at perfect balance. That’s where grid-scale battery storage steps in. The reality is that power must be dispatchable. A megawatt-hour generated at noon on a sunny day in California isn’t nearly as valuable if it can’t be shifted to power homes at 7 p.m., when demand peaks and solar output plunges. Battery storage makes that possible. Although the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law on July 4, 2025, actively phases out several clean energy tax credits, the OBBBA cements the federal Investment Tax Credit for standalone energy storage well into the 2030s. What Is Grid-Scale Storage? Grid-scale battery energy storage systems are not like Tesla Powerwalls for homes. They are massive installations—sometimes the size of football fields—capable of storing hundreds or thousands of megawatt-hours of electricity. Positioned at the heart of the grid, they: Balance supply and demand across regions Smooth renewable peaks and valleys Provide ancillary services like frequency regulation and voltage support Reduce reliance on costly, carbon-heavy peaker plants Most of today’s systems are lithium-ion, but alternatives like sodium-ion, flow batteries, and iron-air designs are emerging to extend storage from hours to days—critical for true…

How To Choose A College In Trump’s America

How To Choose A College In Trump’s America

The post How To Choose A College In Trump’s America appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Along with academic fit, cost, and career outcomes, students now need to consider the impact of the federal assault on research funding, foreign students and “woke” colleges. There’s no sugar coating it: This is a particularly stressful time to be a high school student (or the parents of one) selecting a college. In addition to weighing academic fit, net cost (after school aid) and the career prospects of graduates, you need to consider a college’s financial condition and which of its programs might be at risk from a wave of cost-cutting that could become a tsunami. Politics are increasingly a consideration, too, both in terms of how President Donald Trump’s assault on “woke” colleges, federal research funding and foreign students might affect a specific school and in terms of how comfortable a student (or parents) feel with a particular community or state in these polarized times. “No Florida. No Texas.” That’s what veteran Atlanta-based college counselor Mark Stucker, founder of School Match 4U, has been hearing more often from progressive families. Even before Trump reclaimed the White House, they were turned off by those two states’ high-profile Republican governors and their meddling in state university affairs. Meanwhile, Stucker’s clients from Ohio, Texas and other red states worry about protests getting out of control on “woke” blue state campuses. While politics are playing a growing role, Stucker also neatly puts them in perspective: Over the last 15 years he has seen growing student interest in “football and fun and warm weather” and parental interest in whether, after college, students “will be gainfully employed with a good salary.’’ As we prepared Forbes’ new America’s Top Colleges list, we looked at the numbers and talked to experts, to come up with useful pointers on how to choose a college. Most are tried and…

XRP Price Prediction: Analyst Who Called Ripple’s Pump From $0.50 Is Now Eyeing This

XRP Price Prediction: Analyst Who Called Ripple’s Pump From $0.50 Is Now Eyeing This

The post XRP Price Prediction: Analyst Who Called Ripple’s Pump From $0.50 Is Now Eyeing This appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The XRP price prediction story is changing. Analysts who nailed Ripple’s run from $0.50 are now looking at a new contender: Layer Brett. This Ethereum Layer 2 memecoin is stealing the spotlight with its presale, promising huge rewards and pulling in both retail and institutional investors.  Some are even calling it the next 100x altcoin, thanks to its mix of meme culture, real blockchain use, and a lightning-fast Layer 2 setup. Why Layer 2 gives Layer Brett the edge over XRP, Shiba Inu, and Brett Ripple (XRP) has long leaned on its global payment network, but Layer Brett (LBRETT) is taking a different approach. Built on Ethereum Layer 2, it delivers near-instant confirmations and gas fees that cost pennies instead of the $10 or more you’d usually pay on Ethereum’s mainnet.  That’s a huge advantage over memecoins like Shiba Inu, Pepe, Bonk, Dogecoin, and Brett on Base, which don’t offer real Layer 2 scaling or advanced utility. Key details of the Layer Brett crypto presale: Token price: just $0.005 per $LBRETT, making it easy to get in early Payment options: ETH, USDT, or BNB through MetaMask or Trust Wallet Staking rewards: currently at 1,870% APY for early adopters Token supply: 10 billion with transparent tokenomics XRP price prediction: Why investors are shifting focus to Layer Brett Analysts still see XRP aiming for $3.84, its all-time high, with positive developments like tokenized assets and biometric identity tools boosting sentiment. But XRP’s path forward is slowed by regulatory battles and gradual innovation.  Meanwhile, Layer Brett’s presale is surging with a $1 million giveaway and more than $1,500,000 already invested, many see LBRETT rivaling giants like Shiba Inu and Brett. That growth, paired with massive staking rewards, is why many Dogecoin, Pepe, and Bonk holders are moving funds into this Layer 2 project.…

Gojira Planning New Album For 2026

Gojira Planning New Album For 2026

The post Gojira Planning New Album For 2026 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CONCORD, CALIFORNIA – APRIL 20: (R-L) Joe Duplantier and Mario Duplantier of Gojira perform at Concord Pavilion on April 20, 2023 in Concord, California. (Photo by Steve Jennings/Getty Images) Getty Images Gojira’s next studio album has been a hot topic in the metal world over the last few years, and it seems the band has finally confirmed its release window. This summer the band has been extensively touring and headlining festivals over European markets, which have included some of the band’s biggest headlining shows to date. Recently, Gojira headlined the UK’s Bloodstock festival, and prior to the show drummer Mario Duplantier did an interview with Bloodstock TV, where he discussed the band’s highly anticipated upcoming LP: “We already did record some drums and guitars and basses,” Duplantier stated. “It took us a long time. We needed that time, I think, just to make sure we are all on the same page, make sure what Gojira is bringing next is strong enough. Also, we don’t have that much pressure. We are not a young band anymore… We’ve been a band for 30 years, so Gojira is already an established band. It doesn’t mean that we can be lazy — it doesn’t mean that — but it’s very crucial to take the time to bring something fresh and new and powerful.” Duplantier then went on to confirm that the band is planning for a 2026 release: “For the new songs, we took so much time just to make sure everything is fine and powerful enough and — I don’t know — smart enough as well. But it’s on the way, it’s on the way. 2026, for sure.” In the weeks prior to this news, Mario Duplantier had stated in a separate interview that the band’s next album was going to be a…
