BlackRock’s 2026 AI Report Is Bullish on Digital Assets, Bearish on U.S. Economy

The surge in computing power to drive AI is already benefiting bitcoin miners, who are able to parlay their energy deals into new uses as surging demand for high-performance computing drives up the value of their infrastructure. The AI buildout is constrained not by chips, but by power, accordion the report. In fact, AI data centers could demand up to 20% of current U.S. electricity by 2030.

Several publicly traded mining firms reported increased revenue this year not just from mining, but from leasing out data center capacity to AI companies in need of power-hungry GPUs.

Grayscale debuts first US spot crypto ETPs with staking

The post Grayscale debuts first US spot crypto ETPs with staking appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Grayscale Investments has just launched the first US-listed spot crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) offering staking. The Grayscale Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHE) and Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ETF (ETH) now enable Ether staking, while the Grayscale Solana Trust (GSOL) has activated staking capabilities ahead of its proposed uplisting as a spot Solana ETP. The move provides traditional brokerage investors with access to staking rewards — previously confined to native crypto platforms — through regulated vehicles. The products are not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, meaning they operate outside the framework governing traditional mutual funds and ETFs. Staking, the process of locking up tokens to secure proof-of-stake blockchains like Ethereum and Solana in exchange for rewards, introduces yield potential but also adds operational and network risks.  Grayscale said staking will be managed through institutional custodians and diversified validator networks to reduce single-party risk. This marks the first time US investors can access staking yield through exchange-traded exposure to Ethereum and Solana, expanding upon regulatory acceptance that began with spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024 and spot Ether ETFs in July 2024.  Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg called the initiative “first mover innovation,” underscoring the firm’s role in shaping institutional crypto access.

Spot XRP ETFs Nears $1B AUM Milestone as Streak of No Outflows Continues

The post Spot XRP ETFs Nears $1B AUM Milestone as Streak of No Outflows Continues appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The U.S. Spot XRP ETFs is now near the $1 billion mark of assets under management in less than a month since their launch. This follows from the product maintaining consistent inflows with no single outflow recorded yet. XRP ETFs See Continuous Inflows Since Launch Since its first launch on November 14, spot XRP funds have seen continued inflows. According to data from SoSoValue, the total inflows into these funds have now risen to $881.25 million. The funds attracted $12.84 million of new money yesterday. The daily trading volumes remained stable at $26.74 million. Source: SoSoValue Reaching nearly $1 billion in less than 30 days makes the product among the fastest growing crypto investment products in the United States. Notably, Spot Solana ETFs also accumulated over $600 million since their launch. On the other hand, Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs are holding about $58 billion and about $13 billion in assets under management respectively.

It saw more than $59 million in first-day trading volume and $245 million in net inflows. Shortly after Canary’s launch, firms like Grayscale, Bitwise, and Franklin Templeton introduced their own XRP products.

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
