Bitcoin Munari will conclude its BTCM presale on December 23 before listing the token on the public market on December 28. The team advanced this schedule after completing internal launch milestones ahead of time, keeping the fixed supply at 21 million BTCM and moving initially as a Solana SPL token with a later Layer-1 transition planned. The final presale round runs at a fixed price of $0.015 and includes an allocation without vesting, with remaining tokens reserved for validators, liquidity, the core team, and ecosystem growth.

On 21 December 2025, XRP exchange-traded funds had already accumulated about $1.12 billion in assets under management during a broadly weaker crypto market. Asset managers argue this trajectory differs from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, with institutions testing XRP for its perceived infrastructure role and diversification potential rather than pure cycle-driven speculation.

NIGHT surged 24% in the past day, with trading volume hitting $5.03 billion as its airdrop, expected to distribute roughly 4.5 billion tokens, began on December 10. According to Artemis, privacy tokens showed a 0.5% decline overall, while Bybit and Binance accounted for $3.33 billion and $1.16 billion, respectively.

XRP is trading around $1.93 as sustained spot ETF inflows and clearer US regulatory status underpin institutional interest. Spot XRP ETFs have attracted about $1.07bn in net inflows and hold over $1.2bn in assets, while price tests a key $1.93–$1.98 resistance area on the 4-hour chart. A confirmed move above $2.00 could open a path toward the $2.11–$2.17 region, while failure keeps focus on supports near $1.85 and $1.77.

According to U.Today, developer Ed Hennis filed XRPL Amendment idea #420 to let XRP Ledger accounts rotate a single-use signing key on every transaction. On December 20, 2025, Vet noted the "Quantum Safe" draft, which assumes XRPL's validation speed could limit attackers even if a public key is briefly exposed. Proposed field names include "SingleUseKey" and "QuantumSafeKey", and the feature is positioned as an optional security upgrade.

Spot XRP ETFs launched on Nov. 13 and have posted 32 straight trading days of net inflows. As of Dec. 19, total net assets stood at about $1.21 billion, with cumulative net inflows at $1.07 billion. On Dec. 20, Sentora said inflows have surpassed $1 billion, underscoring steady demand across Canary, 21Shares, Grayscale, Bitwise and Franklin Templeton funds.

With the launch of spot XRP ETFs, the XRP network is experiencing sharp jumps in on-chain payment volumes, including single-day transfers above 1 billion XRP and temporary surges of up to 1,000%. Historically, the price has lagged these bursts in activity before moving higher, and current market structure suggests that thin liquidity and rising transactional demand could enable rapid, outsized moves, even as any long-term rally remains uncertain.

According to the article, Shiba Inu remains in a pronounced downtrend as the token trades below major moving averages and struggles to sustain any recovery. Around 81.5 trillion SHIB reportedly sit on exchanges, creating heavy potential sell pressure and limiting the impact of rallies despite a modest 500 billion SHIB reduction in reserves over the last year. The analysis suggests that, unless exchange balances fall sharply or demand strengthens, SHIB's price may continue to face early-ending rebounds and risk another downside move.
