2025/10 Crypto and Blockchain Archives: NFTs, Exchanges, Airdrops, and Regulations

When you look at what happened in crypto, digital assets and decentralized systems that reshaped finance and ownership. Also known as blockchain technology, it didn’t just move prices—it changed rules. October 2025 brought sharp clarity to how crypto works in the real world: who’s getting licensed, who’s getting scammed, and who’s actually building something useful. This archive isn’t just a list of posts—it’s a snapshot of where the industry stood when regulations caught up with memes, and when NFT marketplaces had to prove they weren’t just digital trading cards.

One big theme? NFT marketplaces, platforms where digital art, collectibles, and virtual land are bought and sold using blockchain. Also known as crypto collectibles platforms, they got smarter. Posts broke down how to pick the right one in 2025—not by hype, but by fees, blockchain support, and security. OpenSea still mattered, but Magic Eden and Solana-based options were rising fast. At the same time, crypto exchanges, online platforms where users trade digital currencies. Also known as cryptocurrency trading platforms, they were under the microscope. Bitfinex’s BFX token legacy, PoloniDEX’s U.S. exit, and Lucent’s red flags showed how trust is harder to earn than a new token. Meanwhile, airdrops, free token distributions meant to reward users or grow a community. Also known as crypto giveaways, they turned into minefields. TRO airdrop? No such thing. MTLX? Real, but from 2021. TopGoal’s football campaign? Legit. The line between real and scam got thinner—and these posts showed you how to tell the difference.

Regulations didn’t wait. Crypto regulation became impossible to ignore. MiCA’s transition deadlines in Europe forced businesses to act or vanish. Dubai’s VARA rules laid out exact capital and AML steps for any virtual asset service. And countries like the U.S. and Spain were seizing crypto like cash—proving digital assets aren’t outside the law anymore. These weren’t theoretical debates. They were survival guides for anyone running a business or holding assets.

What you’ll find here isn’t fluff. It’s the kind of detail you need before you trade, invest, or even click "claim" on a free token. Whether you’re checking if a meme coin is safe, comparing DEX fees on Arbitrum, or trying to understand why a crypto exchange vanished overnight—this archive gives you the facts without the noise. No guesses. No hype. Just what happened, who it affected, and what you should do next.
