While coverage of 13-F filings tends to focus on individual celebrity investors such as Michael Burry or Warren Buffett, or major banks, another important actor in the business world provided an update for its stock portfolio in early May: Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL). The document showed that between the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2025 and Q1 of 2026, Google increased the value of its holdings by as much as $1.5 billion despite decreasing the number of company stocks held by 3: from 29 to 26. Simultaneously, it showed that the balance within the portfolio changed significantly, with an entirely new equity taking the top spot and accounting for as much as 26% of the total.

The post Quantum-Proof Wallets: Crypto Firms Race to Secure Digital Assets Ahead of Protocol Upgrades appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
TLDR: Crypto firms are upgrading wallets to post-quantum MPC signatures before blockchain protocols make the same shift. NIST-approved algorithms like ML-DSA are being evaluated for distributed signing compatibility across wallet systems. Institutions with existing MPC infrastructure can migrate to quantum-resistant wallets through a simple code upgrade. Wallet-level upgrades alone cannot fully protect users if underlying blockchain networks do not follow with protocol changes. Quantum-proof wallets are becoming a priority for crypto companies as the threat of quantum computing draws closer. Firms are now upgrading their wallet infrastructure faster than blockchain networks can update their core protocols. The concern stems from estimates suggesting a “Q-Day” scenario could arrive as early as 2030. One recent report by Project Eleven warns that quan
The post Dogecoin Volumes Drop 50% as Price Faces Key Test at $0.10 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Dogecoin’s trading volume has declined in a quiet trading session following the weekend. In the last 24 hours, Dogecoin volume was down nearly 50% to $669 million according to CoinMarketCap data. Crypto markets often see a “quiet” weekend, marked by lower trading volumes and liquidity which can result in slower price action and volatility from fewer trades. Volume can be lower than on weekdays, creating a thinner market. At the time of writing, Dogecoin was down 0.48% in the last 24 hours to $0.108, a level most analysts are watching closely.

The post Why Tokenized Gold Trading Crossed $90B in Q1 2026 (And What It Means for DeFi) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Tokenized gold trading volume reached $90.7 billion in Q1 2026 alone, exceeding the $84.6 billion recorded across all of 2025. The figure comes from CoinGecko’s Q1 2026 RWA Report, which documented tokenized commodities (overwhelmingly gold-backed) growing 289% from $1.43 billion to $5.55 billion in market capitalization over fifteen months. The numbers point to a category that crossed an inflection point sometime in late 2025. Tokenized gold is no longer a side experiment in DeFi; it’s a measurable segment of on-chain activity with volume comparable to mid-cap altcoins. This article looks at what drove the surge, how the category breaks down structurally, and what the volume signals for DeFi yield in the rest of 2026.
