Alphabet is in focus after reports of sharply higher AI spending and ongoing computing‑capacity constraints: the company raised its capex outlook but posted its first negative free cash flow quarter as a public company. Berkshire Hathaway’s large stake is also noted.

Moscow Exchange included Yandex shares in the 'creation of shareholder value' index, as reported by Smart-lab and Finam. At the snapshot time the share price was $3,835, with a 24h decline of 1.45%.
Why it's notable
The stock’s inclusion in a new MOEX index made it notable in today’s news flow and could affect index-related inclusion and investor visibility; the inclusion was reported by Smart-lab and Finam.

Bitcoin trades around $64,649 with a small 24h gain; the press highlighted several market signals at once: large call positions in options, an overhaul of metrics by a major holder, and stress in the mining and treasury-company ecosystem.
Why it's notable
The news flow bundles competing signals — concentrated call accumulation on Deribit, changes to how a strategy reports bitcoin exposure, and bankruptcy of a large mining pool (Poolin) — making the market notable.
- •Snapshot price: $64,649; 24h change +0.4%; volume large (price/volume snapshot).
- •Nearly $5 billion of open interest accumulated in $70,000–$72,000 call strikes on Deribit, with calls outnumbering puts (CoinDesk, 2026-07-24).
- •Saylor’s team overhauled reporting to give shareholders a clearer view of net bitcoin exposure after preferred stock and convertible debt (CoinDesk, 2026-07-24).
- •Poolin, once a top mining pool, filed for bankruptcy owing $173 million and is selling assets (CoinDesk, 2026-07-24).
- •Reports say bitcoin treasury companies have been selling to repay debt and restructure operations (CoinDesk, 2026-07-24).
Risks: Alongside call accumulation, there are concrete stresses: Poolin’s bankruptcy and forced sales by treasury companies. Options positioning and changes in reporting methodology can produce mixed or transient signals.

CoinDesk reported a sharp rally in Shiba Inu that reached +36 intraday, with volume largely concentrated on South Korean venues and no official announcement. At the snapshot the price was $0.00000531 with a 24h change of +6.4%.
Why it's notable
The token drew attention due to a strong, partly unexplained trading impulse and a high share of volume from Korean venues, differing from the behaviour of other 'dog' tokens.
- •CoinDesk reported a 36% intraday rise in Shiba Inu that was not tied to an official announcement (CoinDesk, 2026-07-26).
- •Snapshot price: $0.00000531; 24h change +6.4%; volume 546,845,545 (price/volume snapshot).
- •Report noted that other dog tokens did not match the move and that Korean venues carried much of the volume (CoinDesk, 2026-07-26).
Risks: The rally appears venue‑concentrated and lacks a clear fundamental catalyst; high regional concentration of volume and absence of accompanying announcements increase the risk of a sharp reversal.

CoinDesk reported that crypto exchange BitMart will shut down after nine years of operation; the BMX token plunged (one headline noted a ~58% crash). At the snapshot BMX traded at $0.057523 with a 24h decline of -64.4%.
Why it's notable

Risks: The exchange shutdown creates uncertainty over liquidity and the ability to withdraw funds; the sharp one‑time crash in BMX and the operational withdrawal timeline increase the risk of further volatility and losses for holders.
