Dogwifhat (WIF) Gains 9% While Top Solana Memes Suffer Double-Digit Losses
Solana meme tokens led the recent market downturn, with top coins like Fwog, MOODENG, GOAT, and PNUT losing up to 22% in 24 hours.

FCA Announces UK Crypto Regulation Roadmap.
The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has unveiled a roadmap to fully regulate crypto assets by 2026, aiming to create a “safe, competitive, and sustainable” market.
