In an X post yesterday, the exchange said that only users who have verified their identity will have access to the platform and funds. Spot exchange users will be given priority, the exchange added.  Nobitex Users Urged To Avoid Using Old Wallet Addresses As the exchange starts to gradually give users access to the platform, Nobitex has urged users to not deposit funds to any of the exchange’s old wallet addresses.  “Due to the wallet system migration, previous addresses are no longer valid, and any deposits made to them may result in loss of funds,” Nobitex wrote in its post. Withdrawal, deposit and trading services remain disabled on the platform. Nobitex had previously said that it would enable withdrawals today, but did warn that this timeline was likely to change. ...

According to a UBS report, the US dollar index (DXY) fell to a three-year low in June. The dip came amid rising uncertainty over US tariffs and economic policies. The DXY has fallen 10% in 2025 as of June 16. According to the UBS CIO, it may be time to reduce and hedge US dollar exposure before the currency falls further. The developments have further fuelled the de-dollarization sentiment.

During the historically significant block size debate that raged through the Bitcoin userbase from 2015 to 2017, a key area of contention surrounded the idea of how bitcoin (BTC)-denominated payments will scale to a global userbase. While some major miners, exchanges, wallet providers, and other users wanted to see a hard fork to increase capacity for on-chain payments, the major contributors to Bitcoin Core and other users thought it would be a better idea to try to maximize use of the then-available block space limit before opting for a backwards incompatible change that could potentially split the network. The end result of this debate was the adoption of Segregated Witness (SegWit), which paved the way for the Lightning Network to develop as a secondary payments layer for the base Bitcoin blockchain. While there has been some adoption of this layer-two (L2) Bitcoin network in various forms, drivechain inventor and LayerT...
