- Wood said on Wednesday that bitcoin is "on sale" now and said that even after today's drop, the cryptocurrency is not necessarily at a bottom. She describes the market as "emotional" and says it is difficult to call the bottom.
- Bitcoin fell for a fifth-straight day, putting the largest cryptocurrency on track for its worst month in more than three years.
- During the interview, Wood briefly addressed Tesla CEO Elon Musk's environmental concerns on bitcoin mining, explaining that the adoption of solar energy in mining will accelerate dramatically.
- Wood said the prospects for a bitcoin exchange-traded fund approval in the U.S. this year have now increased because of the recent plunge in price. "The odds are going up now that we have had this correction," she said.
- At press time Wednesday, bitcoin was changing hands at around $40,753, a steep drop from the cryptocurrency's all-time high of $64,829.14 set in April.
- Earlier this month, Wood announced she had joined the board of Amun Holdings, the parent company of 21Shares, a Swiss-based firm that offers exchange-traded products that give investors an easy to way to gain exposure to crypto.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market
Tarafından sipariş edildiKuCoin
KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
Bilinmesi gerekenler:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
