About this episode

The episode discusses BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF milestone and recent developments in the crypto market.

BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF just hit a milestone that didn't exist 18 months ago. Meme tokens are up 35% in 7 days. Rollups up 31%. BTC sits at $78K — barely moving while everything around it runs. Today's key developments: • BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF just crossed a milestone that proves crypto went mainstream — and Coinbase is positioning itself as the only full-service prime broker that can actually serve the institutions showing up. • The CFTC sued New York to block a state crackdown on prediction markets. 38 attorneys general backed Massachusetts in the Kalshi case. And Brazil just banned Polymarket, Kalshi, and every other prediction platform outright. • Litecoin rewrote 13 blocks of its own history — roughly 3 hours of transactions — to undo its first major privacy layer exploit. Then it said the vulnerability wasn't a zero-day. GitHub commit history says otherwise. 📰 Read the full Daily Pulse: https://pulse.tokenmetrics.com/p/blackrock-s-bitcoin-etf-just-crossed-a-massive-milestone-apr-26-2026?utm_source=spreaker&utm_medium=audio&utm_campaign=daily_pulse_podcast 🔔 Subscribe for daily crypto market updates! ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only…
