🗞️ This Week in Crypto — July 25, 2025 - Our weekly round-up of the top news in crypto

Welcome to this week’s Crypto & Blockchain Weekly Round Up — July 25th!

Every week we provide some of the top crypto news of the week.

‍

🌍 Crypto is rapidly becoming part of the financial mainstream. This week’s headlines made that clear:  

  • Square launched bitcoin payments
  • JPMorgan is offering bitcoin-backed loans
  • Coinbase partnered with PNC to bring crypto to 12M customers  
  • Christie’s is accepting bitcoin for luxury real estate
  • The GENIUS Act is pushing U.S. regulation forward.  

From payments to property, adoption is accelerating — and this is only the beginning.

Let’s dive into what happened this week 👇

🤝 Another win for crypto banking integration.
Coinbase has officially partnered with PNC Bank, a $325 billion financial institution, to bring bitcoin and digital assets to over 12 million customers. ‍

This partnership is another clear signal that major banks are no longer just exploring crypto — they’re integrating it directly into customer-facing services.

With one of America’s largest banks now working alongside one of the biggest crypto exchanges, the onboarding ramp to Bitcoin just got a lot wider.

Crypto is no longer niche — it’s becoming mainstream infrastructure.

🏦 TradFi meets bitcoin... again.
JP Morgan, the $4 trillion banking titan, is making headlines by announcing plans to offer bitcoin-backed loans.  

This move signals a powerful shift: Wall Street is no longer on the sidelines — it’s building with bitcoin.

Collateralized lending using crypto isn’t new, but seeing one of the world’s largest financial institutions embrace it is a clear validation of digital assets as credible financial infrastructure.

As institutional adoption accelerates, the lines between traditional finance and crypto continue to blur. This is not just about innovation, it's about integration.

🏠 Luxury real estate meets bitcoin.
Christie’s International Real Estate, one of the largest US luxury brokerages, has launched a new division to exclusively handle property sales made in bitcoin and crypto.

This bold move marks a major milestone in the integration of digital assets into high-end real-world markets. From art to real estate, crypto is no longer on the fringe — it’s becoming a serious vehicle for high-value transactions.

As regulatory clarity improves and crypto adoption grows, expect more industry leaders to follow Christie’s lead.

A new chapter in luxury is being written on-chain.

📰 Mainstream media is waking up to crypto’s transformation of finance.
This week, The Economist published a headline piece: “Crypto’s Big Bang Will Revolutionize Finance.”

Key points:

  • The GENIUS Act signed by Trump brings much-needed regulatory clarity for stablecoins.
  • Stablecoins already have $263B in circulation — with Standard Chartered projecting a $2T market in 3 years.
  • Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev says crypto tech can become the "backbone of the global financial system."
  • Tokenized shares could enable 24/7 markets, near-zero transaction costs, and instant (T+0) settlement.

The pace of adoption is accelerating—and regulators now need to catch up.

🚨 Big move in bitcoin adoption!
Jack Dorsey's Square is now allowing merchants to accept bitcoin starting today

This shift could accelerate real-world usage and drive more mainstream acceptance of bitcoin as a payment rail — not just a store of value.

Dorsey has long been one of the most vocal bitcoin advocates in tech — and now he's putting that vision into practice.

Another major step toward a more open, decentralized financial system.
