White-label ETF issuer HANetf is set to launch a Europe-focused defence ETF as military spending pledges ramp up across the continent.
The ETF, which is yet to be named, will be listed on European exchanges and will take the EQM Future of Defence index as a base but will apply additional ex-US screens.
The resulting basket will provide higher exposure to European companies while screening out companies with high revenue exposure to controversial weapons.
The launch comes shortly after WisdomTree launched the WisdomTree Europe Defence UCITS ETF (WDEF), though this offers pure exposure to just European defence stocks.
HANetf’s Future of Defence UCITS ETF (NATO) helped push the white labeller to attract a total $1bn inflows in 2024, accounting for well over half its annual inflows.
Many investors dismiss BNB as simply "the Binance coin," but that designation fails to recognize its broader value unlocks. While BNB was initially launched as the native token of the Binance Chain (now the BNB Smart Chain), and its early token burns were tied to Binance’s quarterly profits, BNB is evolving into a decentralized asset with multiple use cases and reasons for economic value.
While BNB may enjoy some value accrual from the expansion of Binance, its token supply model and the development of the BNB Chain offer two independent sources of value. First, BNB serves as a store of value through quarterly and fixed-ratio BNB burning mechanisms. Second, it powers smart contract functionality via the BNB Smart Chain, which has become a growing hub for DeFi and gaming applications.
This is for anybody who wants to sell some Bitcoin but is still bullish crypto.
It’s also if you’re neutral on crypto but think Bitcoin is overvalued vs other tokens.
It’s also just if you’re just interested to see a way to apply a pairs trading strategy.
In case you’ve been hiding under a rock, Bitcoin just broke over $100k - No more waiting for the HODLRS!!
Naturally after hitting this massive milestone, some traders are going to be thinking about taking profits. And if they’re thinking it, some of them are going to be doing it.
But let’s forget about selling for a moment, are you really buying more BTC when it just hit $100k and it's up ~150% this year?
So even if there is not more active selling interest, there’s probably less buying interest.
Starting today, March 21, 2025, Binance has introduced a “Vote to Delist” feature, an initiative that would allow its community members to participate in deciding which tokens should be removed from the platform
Notably, Binance users will be voting on cryptocurrencies included in Binance’s monitoring zone. Tokens listed in this category are at risk of delisting due to poor liquidity, inactivity, or other red flags.
Binance Exchange, the world’s largest digital currency trading platform, will not list Pi Network among the first cohort of projects featured in its “Vote to List” initiative. This inaugural campaign, which clearly boycotts the Pi Network, featured nine projects with growing community hype. Per the update, Binance users will now determine the assets that will make the full listing on the exchange.

Why Did Binance Exempt Pi Network for Listing?
The top trading platform unveiled the decentralized listing initiative earlier this month. The initiative empowers the community to decide which tokens can be listed on the platform.
For clarity, Binance stated that the Vote to List campaign is only open to projects hosted on the BNB Smart Chain network. This automatically disqualified the Pi Network, which operates on its own blockchain.
The question of Binance listing of Pi Coin dates back to early February. At the time, Binance launched a community vote to determine whether users within its ecosystem wanted the coin, or not. Despite the level of support for Pi Network, speculation around a Binance listing remains to this day.
This development has fueled a backlash for the trading platform in the community, with many noting the dominance of memecoins as projects are put up for voting.

Binance and the Favored Projects to List
As detailed by the exchange, only two will ultimately win the listing of the nine projects it put up for voting.
The trading platform listed BANANAS31 (Banana For Scale), BID (CreatorBid), Broccoli (Broccoli), Broccoli (CZ’S Dog), KOMA (Koma Inu), SIREN (SIREN), Mubarak (Mubarak), TUT (Tutorial), and WHY (why).
Each of these tokens has its respective ecosystem with associated celebrity hype. For instance, mubarak lead memecoin frenzy recently after Binance Founder CZ acquired the token. Other tokens like Broccoli also have their dedicated communities.

One trader decided to use AIXBT as a source of copy-trading, a common tactic among memecoin traders looking to imitate the strategy of top-performing investors. The trader decided to pick the new tickers AIXBT mentioned and invest a small sum in each one.
Popular AI bot and influencer AiXBT fell victim to a security breach that resulted in the loss of 55.5 ETH—around $105,000 worth at the current price of Ethereum.
The funds were allegedly taken by the creator of a since-deleted X (formerly Twitter) account called FungusMan, which was able to queue malicious X replies into AiXBT’s autonomous response system, generating a tip of 55.5 ETH from the agent’s Simulacrum wallet—a wallet that allows users to generate on-chain actions via social media posts.
In now-deleted posts outlining the heist, AIXBT replied to a post from FungusMan utilizing the Simulacrum tipping feature, sending 55.5 ETH on Ethereum layer-2 network Base to the malicious actor’s address.
The altcoin’s daily trading volume tripled to around $1.12 billion while its market cap neared $760 million.
The rally coincided with a strong interest from derivative traders. CoinGlass data shows that open interest shot up 73% over the past day to $96 million, more than tripling from $30 million seen at the start of 2025.
Pancakeswap’s (CAKE) gains today come amid investor hype as Pancakeswap became the most active decentralized exchange by daily trading volume for two straight days.
Data from DefiLlama shows that PancakeSwap hit nearly $1.64 billion in 24-hour trading volume on Tuesday, March 18, surpassing Uniswap and Raydium, which saw $1.021 billion and $334.98 million, respectively.
PancakeSwap now holds over 30% of the decentralized exchange market share for that period.
PancakeSwap’s impressive performance is being driven by a few key factors. One big reason is Binance’s decision to delist Tether usdt-0.01%Tether and eight other stablecoins for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) set for March 31 due to compliance with the EU’s MiCA regulations.
Because of this, many Binance users seem to have moved their USDT to PancakeSwap, leading to a surge in trading volume. The DEX processed over $352.4 million in USDT trades in 24 hours, making up about 31% of its total volume.

Over the past month, stablecoins have been on the tip of every crytpocurrency tongue. From Solana’s record stablecoin supply to the introduction of legislation that provides regulatory clarity to the industry in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, stablecoins are hot.
In an X.com post on Monday, Lookonchain, an analytics platform that uses AI to analyze on-chain data for cryptocurrencies, highlighted a $4.5 billion surge in stablecoin activity on Ethereum and Tron blockchains, marking a significant shift in market dynamics and further highlighting the growing importance of stablecoins in the crypto ecosystem.
Jan. 30, bitcoin was worth over USD 105,000 after a blistering post-election rally, now it is hovering around USD 90,000. What happened?

While Trump’s election triggered the move above the key USD 100,000 level, investors may have overestimated the impact of his presidency on the asset class, says Adrian Fritz, head of research at 21Shares, a specialized provider of crypto ETPs. This selloff comes as a realization that reforms will take longer than expected, he says; the latest decline may also be a healthy correction.
“Immediately after the US election, the price of bitcoin quickly rose, which makes a correction almost inevitable and helps the price of the asset to rise in a structured way, removing the speculative component.”
