According to PANews, Polygon has generated over $1.7 million in transaction fees and burned more than 12.5 million POL tokens since early 2026. The increase in fees is largely attributed to Polymarket's introduction of a fee feature for its 15-minute prediction market, which brought in over $100,000 in revenue for Polygon in a single day. Following the launch of the Dandeli hard fork, the chain's throughput increased to 20 mgas/s, effectively alleviating gas pressure.

Key TakeawaysGoogle’s 2025 algorithm updates have reshaped crypto news discovery and trustCrypto media now fragments by intent: data, policy, DeFi, tradingBinance News aggregates trusted sources into a single market-focused feed In late 2025, parts of the crypto media landscape quietly but materially changed. Following Google algorithm updates, several long-standing crypto news sites experienced sharp declines in organic search visibility. Industry analysts have linked the drop to Google’s stricter enforcement of its “Site Reputation Abuse” policy—a framework designed to penalize websites that host low-quality, unrelated, or reputation-piggybacking content—particularly in high-risk sectors like finance and crypto.One widely discussed case was Cointelegraph, which saw a dramatic reduction in search traffic and, according to SEO professionals, temporarily struggled to rank even for branded queries. While the outlet continued publishing as usual, discovery via search became significantly harder.This episode has highlighted and accelerated a shift already underway: users are actively looking for new, trustworthy places to get signal without noise.Below is a practical guide to navigating that shift. Why Google’s “Site Reputation Abuse” Policy Matters for Crypto ReadersGoogle’s 2025 enforcement wave focused on a simple idea: well-known domains should not rent out their trust to unrelated or low-quality content.In crypto, this often shows up as:News sites hosting betting, casino, or coupon subfoldersSudden explosions of SEO-driven listicles unrelated to crypto fundamentalsThin “news rewrites” optimized for clicks rather than insightFor readers, the takeaway is about filtering for credibility in an environment where discovery via search is no longer guaranteed. What Do You Want From Your Crypto News? Match the Source to Your IntentNot all crypto readers want the same thing. Some want data. Some want policy context. Some want DeFi narratives. Some want actionable market signals.Here’s how leading crypto media outlets tend to specialize:By Reader IntentThe Block: Market data, institutional flowsCoindesk: Policy, regulation, and macroeconomic contextBinance News: Market signals and aggregated newsDecrypt: Developer and protocol updatesNo single outlet does everything perfectly, but some are better positioned than others in a fragmented discovery environment. Signal vs. Noise: A Comparative ViewOutletPrimary StrengthSignal-to-Noise RatioBest ForThe BlockProprietary data, institutional reportingHigh signalFunds, analysts, serious market researchCoinDeskPolicy, regulation, macro framingHigh signalUnderstanding governments & institutionsBinance NewsAggregated signals + market contextHigh signalTraders, active users, all-in-one feedDecryptClear explainers, product coverageAverage signalNew protocols, ecosystem updatesBanklessDeFi narratives, long-form opinionsAverage signalDeFi-native users, thought leadershipLegacy SEO-heavy sitesHigh volume, mixed qualityHigh noise Casual browsing (with caution)This ranking is based on editorial focus, consistency, and relevance for high-intent crypto readers, rather than traffic volume. Why You Should Read Binance NewsBinance News functions as an in-app news ecosystem, pulling in curated feeds from other news outlets, alongside original market updates and data-driven insights.For users, the advantage is structural:No reliance on Google search rankingsOne feed combining prices, breaking news, and analysisDirect context next to markets and trading toolsIf you are a retail trader in need of a “Bloomberg Terminal”, Binance News centralizes signal where decisions are actually made. How to Spot a “Compromised” or Low-Trust Crypto SiteIf you’re evaluating a new source, here are simple red flags to watch for:Odd SubfoldersURLs like /betting/, /casino/, /promo/, or /coupons/ on a news siteUnrelated Sponsored ContentGambling, payday loans, or generic finance offers embedded in “news”Volume Over InsightDozens of shallow articles per day with no original sourcingNo Clear Editorial IdentityHard to tell who the audience is, or why an article exists The Bottom LineCrypto media is not disappearing, rather, it is re-sorting.As Google tightens trust requirements and search becomes less reliable as a discovery layer, readers are gravitating toward:Fewer, more intentional sourcesAggregated ecosystems over single outletsClear alignment between intent and contentFor high-intent readers looking for a new home, the winning strategy is not chasing rankings—it is choosing signal, structure, and context—and this is where the next phase of crypto media is heading.

매트릭스포트가 오늘 차트를 발표하며 금값이 강세를 이어가며 이전 저항 구간을 효과적으로 돌파했다고 전했다. 2023년 여름 금값이 2,000달러 관문을 재차 위협했을 때 우리는 이미 경고한 바 있다: 주요 가격대 근처에서 돌파 동력이 축적되고 있으며 중기 상승 기회가 주목할 만하다고. 트럼프와 미국 법무부가 연방준비제도(Fed) 의장 파월에게 대배심 소환장을 발부함에 따라 시장의 Fed 독립성에 대한 우려가 더욱 고조되고 있다. 기관 신뢰도 훼손은 여전히 금의 구조적 지지 요인으로 작용하며, 각국 중앙은행의 달러 의존도 감소와 외환 보유고 다각화를 가속화할 수 있다. 상대적 비교에서 금은 비트코인 대비 우수한 성과를 보이고 있다: 지난 1년간 약 80%의 상대적 우위를 기록했다. 현재 모멘텀은 여전히 강세를 유지하며, 추세 구조는 여전히 상승 우위를 보입니다. 추세 추종 전략은 여전히 유리한 위치에 있습니다.

이더리움의 목표는 금융, 거버넌스 또는 기타 분야를 막론하고 신뢰가 필요 없는(trustless) 또는 신뢰를 최소화한(trust-minimized) 애플리케이션의 본거지가 되는 것입니다.
