Shiba Inu (SHIB) could be on the cusp of a major lift-off following a groundbreaking partnership with Chainlink (LINK), a leader in blockchain interoperability.

Announced on Thursday, this collaboration marks a pivotal moment for the Shiba Inu ecosystem, with its Shibarium network now integrating Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).

Notably, this integration establishes CCIP as the “canonical cross-chain infrastructure” for the Shiba Inu ecosystem, allowing SHIB, BONE, and

Bitcoin (BTC) whales are buying assets in large volumes following the recent dip in the crypto market. These large volumes mostly come off Binance as whales seek to move assets to other custodians, which signifies long-term holdings. Generally, the market’s reaction is bullish, with BTC’s price shaking off previous exits to regain $100K.

Bitcoin (BTC) has flipped a major milestone: $100,000. BTC, after crossing this price threshold on 5th December 2024, made 14,211 new millionaires as well as 4 new billionaires.

A study spearheaded on December 5th sought to analyze more than 17,000 Bitcoin wallets.

Solana (SOL), the sixth-largest crypto by market capitalization, continued to show lackluster performance Thursday, extending its month-long downward trajectory within a narrow price channel.

This comes after a significant rally from September to a new all-time high of $263.83 in mid-November. However, SOL has now revisited the previous March high of $205, a level analysts see as critical support, hinting at a potential reversal.

In a recent tweet, analyst MartyParty highlighted a recurring pr

Veteran economist and trader Peter Schiff has issued a stark warning for Cardano (ADA), predicting a “car crash” for the cryptocurrency as a strong bearish technical pattern emerges.
