Executive scan
Today in Crypto closed with exchange security back in focus after Bitget said Bitcoin withdrawals were open following its reported $387 million hack, while ETH and USDT withdrawals still had to wait. Separate coverage tracked the D’CENT wallet breach spilling beyond XRP into Bitcoin and Ethereum, keeping incident response and cross-chain exposure on desks.
The policy and market-structure tape was just as active. A Senate report put Tether’s USDT at the center of Iran shadow-banking allegations, while Tether said it helped freeze nearly $550 million in Iran-linked USDT during 2026. Institutional plumbing kept expanding: Bybit accepted Franklin Templeton tokenized funds as collateral, Goldman brought a $100 billion Treasury fund into crypto connectivity, and Spark allocated $210 million for BTC-backed institutional loans with Anchorage Digital.
