The post Revolut Keeps USDT Outside EEA and Switzerland appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Revolut, a crypto-friendly digital banking platform, said its Tether USDt (USDT) delisting will not affect all customers globally. The delisting will affect Revolut customers in the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, while support for the stablecoin will continue in other markets, a spokesperson for the company told Cointelegraph. Revolut said the decision followed a review of its crypto services and risk considerations under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). “Revolut is discontinuing support for USDT for customers in the EEA following a periodic review of our cryptocurrency offering in light of the evolving EU regulatory framework under MiCA,” the spokesperson said. Revolut’s decision reflects a broader trend across the EU, where crypto platforms have continued to phase out USDT after Tether, the issuer of the $184 billion stablecoin, chose not to seek

Revolut is cutting off access to USDT for customers across the European Economic Area and Switzerland, with the full delisting scheduled to wrap up by August 31, 2026. The decision, driven by the EU’s sweeping Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), puts Revolut among a growing list of European crypto platforms quietly stepping away from the world’s largest stablecoin — and raises real questions for the millions of users caught in the middle. Key takeaways Revolut will delist USDT for customers in the EEA and Switzerland, with the process completing by August 31, 2026. The delisting follows a review under the EU’s MiCA framework; Tether chose not to seek MiCA authorization. USDT support continues unchanged on Revolut outside the EEA and Switzerland. The delisting of USDT already began on Revolut’s Revolut X trading platform for EEA customers before this announcement. Switzerland is in
The post Tether (USDT) Delisted by Revolut Across EEA and Switzerland by August 2026 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
USDT News Revolut is removing Tether (USDT) from its retail crypto offering for customers across the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, the company confirmed. The digital banking platform said support for the largest dollar-pegged stablecoin will continue for users in other regions, framing the move as a periodic review of its crypto services under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). Customers were notified that the token would leave the platform by Aug. 31, 2026. The decision narrows European access to USDT and adds Revolut to a lengthening list of EU-facing platforms retreating from the asset as the bloc’s licensing rules take hold. The retreat reflects a wider realignment in Europe, where trading venues have steadily phased out USDT after Tether declined to seek authorization under MiCA. Tether, issuer of the roughly $184 b

The post AscendEX Shuts Down as User Balance Payouts Remain Uncertain appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
AscendEX shut down after MiCA pressure, weak liquidity, and failed funding left operations unsustainable. Users face delayed manual withdrawals, with the exchange unable to guarantee full balance recovery. ZachXBT had flagged nearly empty hot wallets before the shutdown, including ETH, USDT, USDC, and SOL. The closure revives custody concerns after AscendEX’s 2021 breach, which caused about $78M in losses. AscendEX has shut down after regulatory, financial, and operational pressures pushed the crypto exchange into a controlled offboarding process. The platform ceased operations on July 1, then published a notice on July 6 explaining the decision.

The post ZCash price today Analysis: Neutral Outlook Ahead of Key Move appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
As of July 9, 2026, the ZCash price today hovers at $467.95 USDT — calm on the surface but carrying real tension underneath. ZEC trades above its 200-day EMA while the broader market flashes a Fear & Greed index of just 22, deep inside Extreme Fear territory. ZEC/USDT — daily chart with candlesticks, EMA20/EMA50 and volume. Key takeaways ZEC holds at $467.95 above all three stacked daily EMAs — a structurally constructive setup despite extreme macro fear. The Fear & Greed index at 22 combines with BTC dominance of 56.08% to suppress altcoin risk appetite across the board. Daily MACD histogram has swung to +8.60, signalling momentum recovery not yet reflected in price action. The ATR of 34.32 warns that daily swings can be sharp — tight stops remain vulnerable to whipsaws. A clean break above $473.69 or below $458.74 will likely determine the next directional move.

The post 001k.bot. Web Platform Review: From Telegram Bot To Full Crypto Management Interface appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Managing crypto income used to mean managing chaos. A freelancer receiving USDT from a foreign client needs to convert it, check the sender’s address, withdraw to a local card, and sometimes pay out to several people at once. Each of those steps used to require a separate tool — a wallet here, a P2P platform there, an AML service somewhere else. The 001k.bot web platform is built around the premise that all of this should happen in one place, without switching contexts or losing money to intermediary steps. That scenario points to something the market is only now catching up to: the next phase of crypto tools isn’t about swapping coins faster or cheaper. It’s about making everything around that swap — storage, transfers, compliance checks, payouts — easier to manage without juggling five different apps to get one thing done. 001k.bot started as a Telegram-f
