Connecticut's Banking Commissioner issued a temporary cease-and-desist order on March 9, suspending Bitcoin Depot's money transmission license in the state. The company later warned that 2026 core-business revenue could fall 30% to 40% and said its shares were down 56% year-to-date, alongside reported layoffs.

US spot Bitcoin ETFs extended inflows to seven straight days, adding about $1.2 billion in total as $199.4 million came in on Monday. Trading volume slipped to $2.6 billion and assets under management rose to $96.7 billion, but the streak remains far smaller than the roughly $6 billion seen across nine days in October 2025. Altcoin funds also improved, with Ether leading inflows and XRP ETFs posting their first daily gains since March 4.
