Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 12th March 2026, Chainwire

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, March 12th, 2026, Chainwire<a href="https://www.bybit.com/en/press" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Bybit</a>, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, today announced the integration of <a href="https://www.bybit.com/en/bybitpay/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Bybit Pay</a> into the <a href="https://www.mastercard.com/global/en/business/payments/consumer-payments/next-gen-payments/digital-asset-solutions/crypto-credential.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Mastercard Crypto Credential</a> network. The integration enables Bybit Pay users to send and receive digital assets using simple, verified aliases issued under Mastercard Crypto Credential standards – such as a phone number or an email address – while adding more governance requirements, therefore, an additional layer of trust and assurance to every transfer.Unlike traditional crypto transfers, which rely on long wallet addresses and limited visibility into the recipient, Mastercard Crypto Credential helps verify that both sender and recipient are legitimate, compliant participants under applicable standards before a transaction is initiated. This allows users to send crypto via an easy-to-remember alias, with greater confidence that the recipient’s wallet supports the selected digital asset and blockchain network – helping reduce the risk of errors or misdirected funds before any crypto is sent.<h2>Trust and assurance – built into every transfer</h2>Mastercard Crypto Credential is designed to bring greater clarity and consistency to crypto transactions. Before any transfer occurs, the solution confirms that the recipient is:<ul> 	<li>An enrolled user of Mastercard Crypto Credential</li> 	<li>Verified under applicable Mastercard Crypto Credential standards, supporting compliance requirements</li> 	<li>Technically compatible, meaning their wallet supports the selected cryptocurrency and blockchain network</li></ul>By performing these checks upfront, users gain greater confidence that funds are being sent to the right person, on the right network, under the right conditions — before any crypto leaves their wallet.The collaboration brings Mastercard's trusted global payments network and standards-based infrastructure to Bybit Pay, the next-generation payment solution designed to simplify transactions across fiat and cryptocurrencies. Together, Bybit and Mastercard aim to deliver more secure and user-friendly crypto transfers for users worldwide.<h3>Key features:</h3><ul> 	<li>Alias-based transfers: Send crypto using a Mastercard Crypto Credential alias, removing the need to share long wallet addresses.</li> 	<li>Pre-transaction verification: Confirms recipient enrollment and verifies asset and network compatibility before sending. If unsupported, the sender is notified and the transaction does not proceed.</li> 	<li>Global, multi-chain interoperability: Transact with other enrolled users across participating exchanges, wallets, and supported blockchains within the Mastercard Crypto Credential network.</li> 	<li>Built-in trust and assurance: Every transfer is validated before execution — reducing the risk of fraud, misdirected funds, and failed transactions.</li></ul><blockquote>"Crypto should be as easy to use as any other form of payment in our daily lives," said Sophie Chen, Head of Marketing at Bybit Card and Bybit Pay. "With Mastercard Crypto Credential on Bybit Pay, we're removing technical barriers that have kept digital assets feeling complicated. Now, sending crypto is as simple as texting a friend: just use their email or phone number, with security built in and zero learning curve."</blockquote><blockquote>“Mastercard is building the connective tissue that makes digital assets usable and trusted at scale,” said Raj Dhamodharan, executive vice president, Blockchain &amp; Digital Assets at Mastercard. “Bringing Bybit into the Mastercard Crypto Credential network expands that foundation, enabling more people to benefit from a consistent, secure way to interact across platforms. It’s another step toward a more unified and reliable digital asset ecosystem.”</blockquote><a href="https://www.bybit.com/en/press" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><img src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.cryptoknowmics.com/crypto/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/RpS2yNC_17732988600WNWxlvxSg.jpeg" /></a><h3>How it works on Bybit Pay</h3>Getting started with Mastercard Crypto Credential on Bybit Pay takes just three simple steps. First, users activate Bybit Pay through the Bybit App. Next, they may create their Mastercard Crypto Credential username using their email address or phone number and select their supported blockchain networks.Once enrolled, users can immediately send and receive crypto with other Mastercard Crypto Credential users across participating platforms using their alias, with added confidence that wallet compatibility and applicable verification checks occur before funds are sent.<h3>Building the Future of Payment, One Node at a Time </h3>Mastercard Crypto Credential connects a growing network of exchanges and digital asset service providers, helping bring more trust, interoperability, and simplicity to blockchain transactions. As a major global exchange partner, Bybit is helping expand Mastercard Crypto Credential's reach and bring its capabilities to millions of crypto-native users.Through <a href="https://uponly.larksuite.com/wiki/H3AvwTDV0iQ5S8kqib7uINBMsBf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Bybit Pay</a>, Bybit is building an organic ecosystem that makes digital assets part of everyday life. The integration of Mastercard Crypto Credential reinforces Bybit's commitment to delivering the simplicity and security users expect from modern financial services.On March 11, 2026, Bybit was among the first batch of industry leaders in <a href="https://www.mastercard.com/us/en/news-and-trends/stories/2026/mastercard-crypto-partner-program.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Mastercard's Crypto Partner Program</a>, a new global initiative bringing together more than 85 crypto-native companies to create a forum for meaningful dialogue and collaboration.For more information about the integration, users may visit: <a href="https://announcements.bybit.com/article/bybit-pay-now-supports-mastercard-crypto-cedential-for-username-based-crypto-transfers-blt0fbce674724bdc29/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Bybit Pay Now Supports Mastercard Crypto Credential for Username-Based Crypto Transfers</a>#Bybit / #CryptoArk / #IMakeIt<h2>About Bybit</h2>Bybit is the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, serving a global community of over 80 million users.

("Bitmine" or the "Company") a Bitcoin and Ethereum Network company with a focus on the accumulation of crypto for long term investment, today announced Bitmine crypto + total cash + "moonshots" holdings totaling $9.9 billion.As of March 1, 2026 at 2:00pm ET, the Company's crypto holdings are comprised of 4,473,587 ETH at $1,976 per ETH (NASDAQ: COIN), 195 Bitcoin (BTC), $200 million stake in Beast Industries, $14 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("moonshots") and total cash of $868 million. Bitmine's ETH holdings are 3.71% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).<blockquote>"Bitmine continues to methodically execute our Ethereum treasury strategy as we move our way through the later stages of this 'mini crypto winter.'

Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) Announces ETH Holdings Reach 4.474 Million Tokens, and Total Crypto and Total Cash Holdings of $9.9 Billion

Dubai, UAE, 27th February 2026, Chainwire

Dubai, UAE, February 27th, 2026, Chainwire<a href="https://www.bybit.com/en/press" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Bybit</a>, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, today revealed the comprehensive results of its 2025 Security Initiative. Bybit has implemented an industry-leading, multi-layered defense architecture that has successfully protected thousands of users and set a new benchmark for proactive security in the digital asset space. In 2025, $17 billion in cryptocurrency was lost to scams and frauds, according to a report by Chainalysis.<h2>Redefining Industry Standards: The Triple-Tier withdrawal Fraudulent Defense Framework</h2>To move beyond reacting to scams after the damage is done, Bybit has pioneered a Dynamic Risk-Based protection system that steps in before money is lost. The system divides potential scam situations into three levels of risk. Each level has a different response - designed to protect the withdrawal process of users while keeping the platform smooth for normal trading activity.Tier 1: Early Warning (Low Risk): Utilizing big-data heuristics to identify unusual patterns—such as mass withdrawals to a singular new address—Bybit deploys automated surveys. These insights allow the Risk Operations team to preemptively blacklist dangerous destinations.Tier 2: Real-time Alert (Medium Risk): For accounts flagged via credential stuffing databases(cross-referencing leaked data from the external web) or suspicious withdrawal addresses, Bybit triggers real-time alerts during withdrawal. The alert encourages users to pause and review the withdrawal, a step aimed at countering social engineering tactics that rely on urgency or emotional pressure.Tier 3: Immediate Blocking and Cooling-off (High Risk): For wallet addresses linked to confirmed scams, including so-called “pig butchering” investment schemes, Bybit implements Real-time Withdrawal Blocking paired with a mandatory One-Hour Cooling-Off Period, providing a vital window for users to regain composure and verify the transaction.2025 Impact &amp; Key Metrics: By the NumbersThe effectiveness of these measures implemented in Q4 2025 has yielded unprecedented results for user safety:<ul> 	<li>Scam Recovery &amp; Prevention in Q4: Out of $500 million in flagged withdrawals, Bybit successfully intercepted and recovered $300 million, protecting the life savings of over 4,000 users.</li> 	<li>AI-Driven Detection in Q4: Bybit’s proprietary AI algorithms identified 350 high-risk investment fraud addresses via on-chain data, shielding 8,000 users from potential withdrawal losses.</li> 	<li>Infrastructure Resilience in 2025: The platform successfully thwarted over 3 million credential stuffing (account takeover) attempts by hackers.</li> 	<li>On-Chain Vigilance in Q4: The system auto-labeled 350 addresses and manually tagged 600 addresses through ticket operations, saving $1 million in imminent fraud losses.</li></ul><h2>A Collaborative Fortress: Industry &amp; Government Synergy</h2>Bybit believes that security is not a competitive advantage but a collective responsibility. Our 2025 strategy focused heavily on External Intelligence Integration:<blockquote>"Our mission in 2025 was to transform risk control from a ‘silent shield’ into an active, intelligent guardian," said David Zong, Head of Group Risk Control at Bybit. "By integrating AI-driven on-chain monitoring with real-time intelligence from industry partners like TRM , Elliptic and Chainalysis, we not only just protect Bybit users, but also help map the DNA of fraudulent networks. We are sharing these standardized monitoring clues across the ecosystem because a safer industry for one is a safer industry for all."</blockquote><img src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.cryptoknowmics.com/crypto/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/66HsgHb_1772180222mnJXCkfbcW.jpeg" />#Bybit / #TheCryptoArk<h2>About Bybit</h2>Bybit is the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, serving a global community of over 80 million users.

This launch evolves artificial intelligence from a strategic vision into a high-performance "Intelligent Trading Partner," shifting the industry paradigm from emotional manual execution to a disciplined "Human + AI Collaboration" model for its 10 million users worldwide.Earlier this year, Phemex introduced its AI-Native Initiative, committing to integrate artificial intelligence across internal operations and external product architecture. The launch of AI Bot serves as a live demonstration of that strategy in practice, moving beyond conceptual transformation into user-facing applications.Utilizing advanced machine learning to analyze millions of data points in real-time, the Phemex AI Bot automates complex quantitative strategies across Futures Grid, Spot Grid, and Martingale systems. Engineered with a "Risk-Aware Intelligence" , the engine prioritizes capital preservation by dynamically adjusting leverage and parameters based on historical volatility.

Zug, Switzerland, 24th February 2026, Chainwire

Zug, Switzerland, February 24th, 2026, ChainwireInstitutional adoption of digital art is continuing to accelerate as blockchain technology reshapes how cultural assets are created, traded, and preserved. Among blockchain ecosystems, Tezos has emerged as one of the strongest and most established networks for digital art, supported by leading marketplaces such as objkt.com and a globally recognized creator community. Now, secure, regulated custodial infrastructure has become essential for professional collectors, galleries, and institutions entering the space.Blockfort, a Swiss-based digital asset custodian established in January 2025, provides institutional-grade storage, -staking, and crypto trading solutions. Built with security as its core priority, Blockfort operates under robust compliance standards, providing its clients with peace of mind when it comes to safeguarding their digital assets.Since 2021, the Tezos blockchain has become a leading platform for art and is home to a vibrant creator ecosystem. Supported by the Tezos Foundation, which promotes the long-term development and adoption of the protocol, the network has seen continued growth in major art initiatives and partnerships. Platforms such as objkt.com have helped establish Tezos as a culturally significant and technically mature environment for NFT-based digital art.“Blockchain-based art is a rapidly growing medium and collectors and institutions are beginning to realise the importance of securing their digital artworks. Tezos has earned its reputation as the leading blockchain for artists and creators, and until now institutional participants have lacked the regulated, secure infrastructure to engage with it confidently. Our Swiss Digital Art Fortress is designed specifically to change that — giving collectors, institutions and galleries the peace of mind they need to keep their art safe for future generations,” said Roman Schnider, CEO of Blockfort.Through its collaboration with the Tezos Foundation, Blockfort now enables secure NFT storage on Tezos via its newly launched Digital Art Fortress in Switzerland. Designed specifically for institutional participants, the solution combines a Swiss-regulated custody infrastructure, advanced security architecture, and audited operational controls. Blockfort’s online platform allows clients to store, visualize and manage their digital artworks. In line with its advanced suite of services, Blockfort also provides a white-glove NFT minting service, designed to guide creators who are new to the blockchain space through the process of minting their work on the blockchain. Together, these elements position Blockfort’s Digital Art Fortress as one of the most robust and institutionally suited storage solutions for high-value digital art assets.To learn more about Blockfort, visit <a href="https://blockfort.ch" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://blockfort.ch</a>&nbsp;<h5>Contact</h5>Sara Moricsara.moric@trili.tech

Bitmine's ETH holdings are 3.66% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).<blockquote>"In the midst of this 'mini crypto winter,' our focus continues to be on methodically executing our treasury strategy and steadily acquiring ETH and in turn, optimizing the yield on our ETH holdings," said Thomas "Tom" Lee, Chairman of Bitmine.</blockquote><blockquote>"We discussed this operational strategy in our latest Chairman's message (the link to his message is <a href="https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4624643-1&amp;h=596224143&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bitminetech.io%2Fchairmans-message&amp;a=here" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">here</a>). While crypto prices are attempting to find their respective lows, the three fundamental drivers for Ethereum continue to gain traction: (i) Wall Street and their efforts at tokenization; (ii) AI and agentic-AI using smart blockchains for both execution and for collecting payments and (iii) the emerging creator economy and their desire to use blockchains for verification," continued Lee.</blockquote><blockquote>"In the past week, we acquired 51,162 ETH," continued Lee. "Bitmine has been steadily buying Ethereum, as we view this pullback as attractive, given the strengthening fundamentals. In our view, the price of ETH is not reflective of the high utility of ETH and its role as the future of finance."</blockquote>As of February 22, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 3,040,483 ($6.0 billion at $1,958 per ETH). "Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world.
