📰 MEGA cuts 20% of staff amid shift to AI products

On November 13, 2026, MEGA co-founder Shuyao Kong announced a 20% staff reduction following a reorganization. The changes affected employees working on the MegaETH network, the wallet, and ecosystem development. The founders and key engineering team are continuing their work.

Earlier, the MegaETH Foundation changed its name to MEGA and announced that it would allocate $30 million from its existing reserves to develop new products. Plans include a marketplace for AI model execution services; its launch has only been planned, not yet completed.

The staff cuts and change in strategy do not mean that the MegaETH blockchain is shutting down. The company has not disclosed the exact number of employees laid off.

📰 Two Old Bitcoin Addresses Become Active After 16 Years

On November 13, 2026, analytics services recorded activity on two Bitcoin addresses that had remained dormant for about 16 years. Each held 50 BTC—a total of 100 BTC, valued at approximately $6.9 million at the time of the report.

The addresses date back to 2010, when the reward for mining a Bitcoin block was 50 BTC. Activity on one of the wallets included a transfer; the fact that coins moved does not mean they were sold on an exchange.

The reasons for the transactions and the owners of the addresses have not been identified. Data on the movement of old coins does not allow for reliable predictions of BTC’s future price.

📈 Hyperliquid overtook Bybit, Kraken and OKX in open interest

On November 13, The Block published its third-quarter 2026 results: Hyperliquid’s open interest reached about $16.8 billion by the end of September, up nearly 80% from the end of June. By this measure, the platform surpassed Bybit, Kraken and OKX among the exchanges examined.

Hyperliquid’s share of the combined open interest across itself and eight major platforms rose from 9.6% to 11.7%. Protocol revenue for the quarter increased by about 22% to $191 million, but remained below its level a year earlier.

These are historical quarterly figures, not the current volume of open positions. Rising open interest does not, by itself, guarantee an increase in the price of the HYPE token.

💰 Possible Tesla-SpaceX merger draws renewed attention to their bitcoin holdings

On November 13, 2026, CoinDesk reported on discussions about a possible merger between Tesla and SpaceX. According to the publication, together the companies control around 30,000 BTC, worth approximately $2.1 billion at the time of publication. This is an estimate of their combined reserves, not an announcement of a coin transfer or a new purchase.

Tesla’s board of directors formed an independent committee to evaluate the potential deal. A possible merger would require the relevant corporate approvals and, if necessary, shareholder approval. No deal has been reached, and its terms have not been approved.

📉 Bitcoin fell below $70,000 for the first time since August

On November 13, BTC broke below the $70,000 mark and fell to around $67,770 during trading — its lowest level in nearly 12 weeks. Ethereum also dropped to around $1,900, while the crypto market came under pressure from a sell-off in risky assets.

Factors included a strengthening dollar and expectations of tighter US Federal Reserve policy. According to CoinDesk, liquidations of crypto positions exceeded $1.6 billion. This is an estimate for the publication’s observation period, not a guaranteed daily total.

⚖️ Thailand proposes daily limit on stablecoin transactions

On November 13, 2026, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand put a draft set of limits on stablecoin transactions out for public consultation. The proposal would cap each client’s daily deposits and withdrawals on any one regulated platform at 5 million baht — about $148,000.

The draft also provides for stablecoin transfers only between accounts or wallets belonging to the same person. The initiative aims to reduce money-laundering risks. This is currently a regulatory proposal, not a ban that has taken effect; the final rules may change following the consultation.

💰 Nakamoto’s debt to Kraken exceeded the company’s market value

On November 13, CoinDesk reported that bitcoin-accumulating company Nakamoto owes the exchange Kraken 165 million USDT. Meanwhile, Nakamoto’s market capitalization was estimated at around $104 million at Thursday’s close. The company postponed the remaining payments until 2027.

Around 70% of its bitcoins are pledged as collateral for a loan. At the time of publication, the pledged BTC were valued at approximately $208 million—more than the debt, though a further fall in the price of bitcoin could reduce this collateral buffer.

This is not a report of bankruptcy or collateral liquidation; it concerns debt burden and risks if the market declines.

📰 Bithumb Announces Delisting of MANTRA and RECALL

On November 13, 2026, South Korean crypto exchange Bithumb announced its decision to end trading support for two tokens — MANTRA and RECALL. According to Kriptofoni, the exchange believes these assets no longer meet its listing standards.

Delisting means that trading of these assets will end on Bithumb specifically; it does not mean that the corresponding blockchains will stop operating or that the tokens will automatically be removed from other platforms. Holders should check the exchange’s official notice for the deadlines to stop trading and withdraw funds; the dates are not provided here to avoid sharing unverified information.

📉 Outflows from U.S. Bitcoin ETFs in 2026 reach $1.56 billion

On November 13, CoinDesk reported that, according to SoSoValue, the cumulative net flow into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs since the start of 2026 had fallen to minus $1.56 billion. As recently as October 29, the year-to-date balance was positive at around $1.01 billion.

Through Thursday this week, the funds lost $643.6 million in net assets, following losses of $1.28 billion the previous week. This shows a sharp reversal in demand for exchange-traded products, but does not mean that every investor sold their bitcoins. The data reflect a published snapshot of flows, not the completed 2026 calendar year.

📰 Anchorage Digital and Lydian agree on payment infrastructure for stablecoins

On November 13, 2026, The Paypers reported a partnership between Anchorage Digital Bank and payment company Lydian. Lydian connected to banking infrastructure for issuing and redeeming stablecoins, as well as holding related digital assets.

Lydian’s payment model allows merchants to accept payments in digital assets and receive proceeds in local currency. The partners are also considering making Anchorage a settlement hub for a broader flow of such payments, but this stage is still under consideration and no launch date has been announced.

🚀 SoFiUSD launches on Polygon’s payments infrastructure

On November 12, 2026, SoFi and Polygon announced that SoFiUSD, a dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by SoFi Bank, is now available on Polygon Open Money Stack. The token was already operating on the Ethereum and Solana networks.

The integration enables SoFiUSD to be used within Polygon’s transfer and settlement infrastructure. The token is designed to be redeemable one-to-one for US dollars, but it is not a bank deposit and is not FDIC-insured. This expands an existing product; it is not a promise of a future launch.

⚖️ U.S. Justice Department and CFTC sue Arkansas over Kalshi

On November 13, 2026, The Block reported that the U.S. Justice Department and CFTC had filed a lawsuit in federal court against Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin. The lawsuit, filed on November 12, challenges the state’s attempt to restrict the operations of Kalshi, a regulated prediction contracts platform.

The federal agencies argue that regulation of such derivatives falls under the CFTC’s exclusive jurisdiction. They are seeking to block the state’s measures. The court has not yet issued a ruling on the merits: this is the plaintiffs’ position, not a finding by the court.

📰 Lugano expands its crypto project with Tether

The Swiss city of Lugano continues to develop its Plan B initiative with Tether. According to the Financial Times on November 13, nearly 500 local businesses accept Bitcoin, USDT, or the city’s LVGA token. Some municipal fees can also be paid with digital assets.

Tether has allocated another 5 million Swiss francs to continue the project, which brings together payments, education, and support for crypto businesses. However, the widespread onboarding of businesses does not mean widespread use: at one store, crypto payments accounted for just 0.02% of sales.

📉 Mass liquidations of long positions in the crypto market: hundreds of millions of dollars

As Bitcoin and Ethereum declined on November 12–13, 2026, exchanges forcibly closed leveraged traders’ positions. According to a CoinGlass snapshot published on November 13 and cited by BeInCrypto, around $681 million in positions were liquidated over the preceding 24 hours, of which approximately $599 million were long positions. This figure relates to a specific rolling 24-hour window and changes over time.

BTC accounted for around $325 million in liquidations, and ETH for around $106 million. A separate Bitcoin.com snapshot from November 12 also recorded more than $650 million in total liquidations, confirming the scale of the volatility, but not that the time intervals were identical. A liquidation is the forced closure of a position, and does not necessarily mean traders lost the entire stated amount of their own capital.

📉 About $145 million flowed out of US Ethereum ETFs on November 11

According to SoSoValue, US spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds recorded net outflows of about $145 million on November 11, 2026. The largest contribution to the decline came from BlackRock's ETHA fund, at approximately $130 million.

Outflows mean that redemptions exceeded new investments in these funds during the trading session. This is an indicator of demand for exchange-traded products, not proof that all ETH holders are selling their coins. The data refers specifically to November 11, not the current trading session.

🚀 Jupiter launches USDGO lending market on Solana

On November 12, 2026, the Jupiter platform announced the launch of a dedicated lending market for the USDGO stablecoin in the Jupiter Lend protocol. Users can lend USDGO to earn variable returns or borrow it against crypto assets, including SOL, JLP, and BTC.

USDGO is issued by Anchorage Digital Bank, with OSL Group acting as its operator and distributor. The market is also integrated into Bitget Wallet. According to Jupiter, outstanding loans on Jupiter Lend exceed $1 billion—this figure applies to the entire platform, not just the USDGO market.

Returns depend on borrower demand and are not guaranteed. This was the launch of a lending market on November 12, not a repeat of October’s launch of USDGO trading liquidity.
