The post Crypto Majors Chop ahead of NVDA earnings! Kraken raises $800M! Fidelity launch SOL ETF! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto Majors Chop ahead of NVDA earnings! Kraken raises $800M! Fidelity launch SOL ETF! Crypto majors were slightly green ahead of tonight’s major NVDA earnings call, with BTC hovering around $91,300, ETH up 2% at $3,090, BNB up 1% at $922, and SOL also up 1% at $139. Among top movers, MYX (+38%), STRK (+30%), and ZEC (+10%) led the pack. Bitcoin’s latest 30% drawdown unfolded far more rapidly—over 42 days—compared with the previous two drawdowns in Summer 2024 (147 days) and April 2025 (77 days). Kraken raised $800M at a $20B valuation in a round led by Jane Street, DRW, Oppenheimer, and a $200M stake from Citadel. The Ethereum Foundation outlined new goals for its upcoming Interop Layer, designed to unify all EVM L2s and make them function as “one chain.” In regulatory news, the OCC said national banks may hold and spend crypto in certain cases, such as paying for gas or testing applications. New Hampshire launched the first Bitcoin-backed municipal bond, while Mt. Gox moved 10,608 BTC—nearly $1B—from a cold wallet to new addresses, renewing expectations of imminent creditor repayments. Meanwhile, Tether made a strategic investment in Ledn to expand bitcoin-backed lending.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
