The sale shows how Bitcoin miners are reshaping strategies as mining economics continue to deteriorate.

Bitcoin miner Cango has sold 4,451 Bitcoin on the open market, generating net proceeds of about $305 million it says were used to partially repay a Bitcoin‑collateralized loan and to strengthen its balance sheet. 

Bitcoin miner Cango sells $305M BTC to cut leverage and fund AI pivot

The company said Monday that the transaction, approved by its board after a review of “current market conditions,” is intended to reduce financial leverage and provide additional capacity to fund its planned expansion into artificial intelligence (AI) and high‑performance computing (HPC) infrastructure.

Cango said that the “strategic pivot” meant utilizing its “globally accessed, grid-connected infrastructure” to provide distributed compute capacity for the AI industry, and that the initiative would be implemented through a phased roadmap.

Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

The post Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Curve Finance has proposed a new protocol called Yield Basis that would share revenue directly with CRV holders, marking a shift from one-off incentives to sustainable income. Summary Curve Finance has put forward a revenue-sharing protocol to give CRV holders sustainable income beyond emissions and fees. The plan would mint $60M in crvUSD to seed three Bitcoin liquidity pools (WBTC, cbBTC, tBTC), with 35–65% of revenue distributed to veCRV stakers. The DAO vote runs from up to Sept. 24, with the proposal seen as a major step to strengthen CRV tokenomics after past liquidity and governance challenges. Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov has introduced a proposal to give CRV token holders a more direct way to earn income, launching a system called Yield Basis that aims to turn the governance token into a sustainable, yield-bearing asset.  The proposal has been published on the Curve DAO (CRV) governance forum, with voting open until Sept. 24. A new model for CRV rewards Yield Basis is designed to distribute transparent and consistent returns to CRV holders who lock their tokens for veCRV governance rights. Unlike past incentive programs, which relied heavily on airdrops and emissions, the protocol channels income from Bitcoin-focused liquidity pools directly back to token holders. To start, Curve would mint $60 million worth of crvUSD, its over-collateralized stablecoin, with proceeds allocated across three pools — WBTC, cbBTC, and tBTC — each capped at $10 million. 25% of Yield Basis tokens would be reserved for the Curve ecosystem, and between 35% and 65% of Yield Basis’s revenue would be given to veCRV holders. By emphasizing Bitcoin (BTC) liquidity and offering yields without the short-term loss risks associated with automated market makers, the protocol hopes to draw in professional traders and institutions.
