Bitcoin Volatility Incoming as BTC Price Forms This Key Technical Pattern – $38K or $48K Next? 🪙 Bitcoin (BTC) chart analysis suggests the price has formed a key short-term technical pattern that could be a harbinger of extreme volatility ahead, with quick dump to $38,000 or pump towards $48,000 possible depending on how the pattern is broken. 🟡 Amid its consolidating back from the year-to-date highs near $45,000 it hit earlier this month, the BTC price has formed a pennant structure, characterized by the price being gradually squeezed by higher lows and lower highs. 🟡 These patterns often form in periods of market consolidation (like we have seen over the course of the past week) and usually proceed a meaningful breakout to the upside of downside. 🔶 If BTC was to break its pennant structure to the downside, which would also mark a break below its 21DMA, a quick test of the $40,000 level would be very likely due to technical selling.

Yearn.finance Ask Traders to Return Gains Following $1.4 Million Multisig Error- What’s Going On? 🌐 In a Dec 11 GitHub post, the protocol’s contributor, “dudeshan” disclosed that during a fee token conversion, the multi-signature mishap caused the company’s treasure balance of 3,794,894 lp-yCRVv2 tokens to be swapped. 🔗 Although it was revealed that the tokens swapped solely affect the protocol’s treasury without users, the revelation sparked diverse reactions amid the recent attack on bridges on other forms of cryptocurrency platforms incidents. 🔗 “This amount was strictly protocol-owned liquidity (POL) belonging to Yearn’s treasury and does not contain any user funds. This amount comprised a large portion of the Curve pool, and therefore incurred significant slippage which arbed back to the normal price by the market shortly after.” 💬 The platform’s liquidity pool plummeted 62% relative to the spot price after it suffered massive slippage following a receipt of 779,958 DAI yVauly tokens.

Binance Withdraws Application for Abu Dhabi License, Reassessing Compliance Needs 🔶 Binance has officially withdrawn its application for a financial license in Abu Dhabi, according to Reuters. This move is indicative of the exchange’s ongoing reassessment of its global operations and licensing requirements. 🟡 The application, submitted by BV Investment Management, a Binance unit, aimed to manage collective investment funds as per the details on the regulator’s website. According to a spokesperson for Binance, the move to retract the application was a strategic decision to align with the company’s reassessed compliance needs. 🟡“When assessing our global licensing needs, we decided this application was not necessary,” said the spokesperson. 🔶 This application, filed a year ago and officially retracted on November 7th, signals a potential shift in Binance’s operational focus and global strategy.

3 Out of Every 4 Web3 Games Have Met Their Demise: CoinGecko Report 🪙 Three out of every four Web3 games launched in the past five years have met their demise, presenting a bleak outlook for GameFi industry. In a recent report, CoinGecko analyzed the launch and success rates of 2,817 games between 2018 and 2023. 🔑 Shockingly, only 690 games managed to maintain a somewhat active player base, while a staggering 2,100 games have ceased operations, which translates to an alarming annual failure rate of 80.8% for Web3 games during this period. 🔑 The failure rate was calculated by comparing the number of failed games to the total number of games launched. CoinGecko defines a failed Web3 game as one that experiences a 99% drop in active users based on a 14-day moving average from its peak. 💰 The discouraging outlook is surprising considering the initial acclaim Web3 gaming received within the crypto community, offering users the ability to earn substantial rewards and tangible value from their gaming experiences.

Will Bitcoin Futures ETFs Crumble After Spot ETF Approval? Interview With ProShares 🪙 As Bitcoin (BTC) surged passed $38,000 in November, the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO) has tapped a new all-time high for assets under management (AUM). On Tuesday, the fund’s Bitcoin futures contracts reached a record $1.47 billion in value. That’s up from $1.1 billion at the start of the month, and $544 million at the start of the year. 🟡 “The flows have been really strong,” said Simeon Hyman, Global Investment Strategist at ProShares, to CryptoNews in an interview. “It hasn’t all been [BTC] appreciation, there have been very strong inflows.” 🟡 As of November 30, BITO has absorbed $470.9 million in net flows year-to-date. It’s also averaged $160 million in daily trading volume, putting it in the top 5% of all U.S. ETFs. November was one of the fund’s best-performing months aside from its inception in October 2021, when it became the first Bitcoin ETF to launch in the United States. It marked its previous all-time high AUM at $1.44 billion just weeks later on November 10, when BTC itself reached its all-time high of $69,000. 🔶 Ironically, both BTC and BITO’s stellar performance has been largely driven by growing excitement for a U.S. Bitcoin spot ETF – a theoretical competitor to BITO in the arena of institutional Bitcoin investment options.

Shaun Connell, the Executive Vice President of Power at Houston-based tech company Lancium, also contributed to the research.

Nigerian Politician Arrested for $246,153 Theft from Patricia Technologies’ Crypto Wallet 🇳🇬 The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has announced the arrest of a politician in connection with the theft of over 200 million naira (approximately $246,153) from Patricia Technologies’ crypto wallet. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), the NPF said the arrest of Wilfred Bonse was made following an investigation conducted by the NPF’s National Cybercrime Center. ➡️ According to Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the force’s public relations officer, Bonse is accused of collaborating with hackers to launder 50 million naira (around $61,538) from the stolen funds. The charges against him include criminal conspiracy, unauthorized alteration of computer systems and network data, and the illicit diversion of funds exceeding 200 million naira. 💲 The statement issued by the NPF revealed that Bonse was apprehended for his alleged involvement in the theft, conversion of cryptocurrency wallets, and unauthorized fund diversion from Patricia Technologies.

KyberSwap Exploited in $46 Million Attack Due to ‘Infinite Money Glitch’ 🚨 Colkitt explained that the attacker exploited a distinctive implementation of KyberSwap’s concentrated liquidity feature, manipulating the contract to believe it possessed more liquidity than it actually did. To explain the intricacies of the attack, and with the attacks following similar strategies employed by the attacker across other pools, Colkitt focused on the first attack, which targeted the ETH/wstETH pool. ⏸ The process began with a flash loan of 10,000 wstETH, valued at $23 million at the time. Subsequently, 2,800 wstETH (equivalent to $6 million) was swapped into the pool to alter the price from 1.05 ETH to 0.0000152. Unlike typical flash loans, the goal here was not to manipulate an oracle but to move the pool price to an area on the concentrated liquidity curve with zero existing liquidity. 🔵 This precise manipulation of Kyber’s concentrated liquidity math created an opportunity for the attacker to exploit the system. The attacker generated 3.4 wstETH of liquidity in a specific price range and then inexplicably burned 0.56 wstETH of liquidity, possibly to align subsequent numerical calculations perfectly.

Coinbase CEO Sees Binance Settlement as Chance for Industry Renewal 💰 Coinbase CEO, Brian Armstrong says the Binance settlement is a chance for the industry to prioritize compliance and rule clarity to prevent regulators from slamming huge fines on companies. Armstrong wrote on X (Twitter) shortly after Binance’s settlement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) was announced explaining the need for rule compliance and Coinbase roadmap since 2012. 🔘 In a recent interview with Bloomberg, the CEO stated Coinbase couldn’t move as quickly as others in terms of expansion and onboarding new products in the markets due to the complaint approach stressing that it was the right decision. 🔘 Armstrong also charged regulators to make the proper rules for the sector to flourish in the United States rather than the persistent court cases and sanctions levied on multiple projects. He added that Americans should but have to look elsewhere to get benefits from crypto through unregistered exchanges because the US democratic economy should always get it right. 🔷 In recent months, Coinbase has led the push for rule clarity in U.S. courts and in Congress following the renewed regulatory onslaught on the market. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed charges against the company for acting as an unregistered broker of securities which it has denied with promises to defend itself vigorously.
