Australia’s July 1 AML/CTF deadline has turned regulated crypto transfers into a data workflow for exchanges and other virtual asset service providers.Users can still hold and move crypto in self-custody. The friction begins when funds pass through a reporting entity, where a transfer instruction can trigger identity, wallet, counterparty, secure-messaging, and record-keeping checks before assets move or become available.AUSTRAC’s transitional rules deferred some AML/CTF obligations for new registrable virtual asset services until July 1, 2026, including the rules covering transfers of value involving virtual assets.The agency’s guidance says those deferred services were not required to comply with Travel Rule obligations…
Ripple’s XRP is having quite the opposite experience in 2026 as opposed to 2025. The asset climbed to an all-time high of $3.65 in July of last year, but has since dipped by more than 71%.

XRP seems to have some support at the $1 mark, but a fall below its current support could pull prices to the 50 cent mark, a level last traded at in November 2024.

June felt different. The bid that hoovered up every dip in Q1 suddenly looked thin, and the tape stopped forgiving hesitation. By month end, a chart doing the rounds told the story in one line: institutions were no longer catching the falling knives for everyone else. The number that stuck: U.S. spot ETFs offloaded roughly 71,600 BTC in June, while corporate treasuries bought only about 7,500 BTC. Add steady miner issuance and the market faced an implied gap of around 77,000 BTC, or about $4.4 billion of supply hunting for buyers CoinDesk. That is how an overhang forms. Not because…
