Crypto markets delivered a packed 24 hours: a near-billion-dollar Bitcoin ETF inflow day, the NYSE-Blockchain.com tokenized stock pilot moving forward under the SEC's Innovation Exemption, and a $9.4M governance attack on Neutron that exposed a chain-level design flaw.

The New York Stock Exchange and Blockchain.com have formally partnered to build twenty-four-seven tokenized US stock trading on blockchain, backed by the SEC's first-ever Innovation Exemption. That's the signal that separates this week from the years of tokenization talk that came before it.
While tokenization headlines dominated, a quieter story carried a sharper warning. The Neutron blockchain suffered a governance attack that drained nine point four million dollars from ten smart contracts in under twenty-five minutes.
XRP futures open interest jumped four point one billion dollars in twenty-four hours, hitting a nine-month high. Price moved seven percent to one dollar sixty-two, driven by short liquidations totalling three hundred and forty-five million dollars.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in just under one billion dollars in net inflows on Monday, the largest single-day total since October and the ninth-largest day since these products launched. That's a clear signal of institutional appetite returning.
The European Central Bank, alongside EU national banks, has formally requested that MiCA's stablecoin deposit requirements be scrapped. The current rules mandate that thirty to sixty percent of stablecoin reserves sit in bank deposits.
Three things to track from here. First, whether the NYSE-Blockchain.com partnership moves toward a confirmed launch structure or stalls in regulatory process.
