AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoMarket Rout: Bitcoin slid toward $74,000 as the tech selloff and post-election regulatory worries pressured crypto; more than $1 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated in 24 hours, while spot Bitcoin ETFs saw heavy outflows. Ether and XRP also hit multi-month lows.

Trump defended his stake in World Liberty Financial after questions about a reported $500 million UAE investment. Security: The $6.3 billion Binance theft, which US authorities link to North Korean hackers, has prompted fresh scrutiny; Binance’s CFO has stepped down. Ecosystem Moves: TRON integrated with Backpack Wallet, adding self-custody access to TRON assets and apps. China, meanwhile, has halted Solana promotional events and opened a probe into the companies involved.
