TD Cowen lowered its price target on the strategy by about 35% to $260 from $400, maintaining a Buy rating and describing the company’s newly announced digital credit capital framework as “incrementally constructive” for credit visibility and capital flexibility. Analysts led by Lance Vitanza and Jonnathan Navarrete made it clear that the target cut stemmed from their revised Bitcoin (BTC) price forecast rather than Strategy’s framework announcement on Monday. TD Cowen’s price target implies an upside of more than 200% from Strategy’s $92.68 closing price on Monday, a gap that analysts acknowledged “may seem out of context” given the scale…
The Bank of England systematically abandoned the proposed private holding limit for sterling stablecoins and instead moved the issuer-level limit to £40 billion. With MiCA on the verge of full implementation in the EU, the UK is positioning itself as a more flexible alternative. The question now is whether this approach can regulate stablecoins without undermining their usefulness as a payment and settlement infrastructure. The Bank of England’s latest proposals for stablecoins, the UK’s central bank, represent a clear step back from its previous more restrictive stance and could make the country a more hospitable environment for cryptocurrency businesses. Previously,…

Bitcoin continues to show signs of building a strong foundation after successfully maintaining weekly closes above the $63,000 level for three consecutive weeks. Since hitting local lows near $59,000 earlier this year, BTC has managed to defend key supports while gradually stabilizing its structure. From a market cycle perspective, this type of price action is often historically similar to the initial stages of a bottoming process that occur before a larger trend reversal occurs. The market is starting to show signs of absorbing selling pressure and allowing stronger hands to accumulate positions, rather than continuing the aggressive downtrend. Several important…
