Renowned crypto investment firm Fidelity has continued to expand its crypto portfolio, adding more Bitcoin amid growing demand for its ETF product.
Apart from its Bitcoin fund, the firm also issues both Ethereum and Solana ETFs, and it has recorded modest purchases for both over the same period.
Fidelity buys $354 million of Bitcoin Latest onchain data from Arkham Intelligence shows that Fidelity has purchased a total of $438.9 million worth of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana through its ETF products over the past 20 trading days.

While this signals continued buying activity across the three major crypto assets, it shows that the firm has seen sustained demand for nearly all its crypto ETF offerings, especially Bitcoin.

Nonetheless, the data shows that the firm saw more demand for its Bitcoin product, as the Fidelity spot Bitcoin ETF recorded the largest purchases.
As such, FBTC has accumulated up to $354.1 million worth of BTC over the stated period. Meanwhile, it acquired only lesser amounts of ETH and SOL.
More specifically, Fidelity has bought $66.6 million worth of Ethereum and another $18.2 million worth of Solana over the same period.
Bitcoin loses momentum While the massive Bitcoin purchase from Fidelity signals sustained institutional demand for the leading crypto asset over the past week, Bitcoin has suddenly witnessed a sharp price reversal.
Retracing from a high of around $87,000 back to its multi-week low of around $81,000, Bitcoin appears to be facing increased sell-off pressure from traders, especially retail traders.
With momentum on the leading asset currently down, it remains uncertain whether Fidelity and other major Bitcoin funds will be able to sustain their Bitcoin buying spree for much longer.
CROWDFUNDINSIDER: Arthur Hayes Says SpaceX ($SPCX) and AI Data-Center Boom Will Waste Trillions Before Bitcoin, Ethereum, Other Digital Assets Soak Up the Bailout
Analysis: AI leading stocks pushed the S&P 500 index up 117% during the bull market, with mounting market concentration risk.
Market analysis notes that since October 2022, the S&P 500 index has risen 117% cumulatively, driving the total market capitalization of U.S. stocks to increase by nearly $40 trillion, with the rally mainly fueled by AI-related stocks. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index has underperformed its market-cap weighted counterpart by 52 percentage points, hitting the widest gap in history—underscoring this bull market’s reliance on a small number of large tech stocks. Nvidia’s share price has surged more than 1900% cumulatively over the same period, while U.S. Treasury yields have recently risen to 5.34%, further stoking market concerns about valuation pressures. Investors are closely monitoring whether corporate earnings growth can sustain this bull market.

Injective Releases INJ and Proposed ETF Operational Guidelines, Detailing Token Economic Model and On-Chain Financial Applications
Injective has published a post explaining the relationship between its blockchain network, native token INJ, and the proposed Canary Staked INJ ETF (ticker: INJC). The blockchain serves as a transaction settlement infrastructure for financial applications, while INJ is used to pay network fees, stake to maintain network security, and participate in governance. If approved, INJC will offer investors exposure to INJ price movements and staking yields via traditional securities accounts. On the token economic front, Injective distributes staking rewards through protocol issuance and reduces circulating supply via token burns. Its Community BuyBack mechanism ties ecosystem revenue to INJ burns: participants receive a proportional share of an ecosystem asset basket based on the percentage of INJ they commit, while their committed INJ is burned. Regarding the ETF, Canary Capital has filed a related application with the U.S. SEC, naming BitGo Bank & Trust as the proposed custodian for INJ. Per the application documents, the fund plans to stake at least 90% of its INJ under normal conditions, with staking rewards typically reinvested. The product remains a proposal and is pending regulatory approval.

An iPhone version of Doubao mobile assistant has emerged? Developer demonstrates controlling an iPhone using Opus 5.5
Beating AI Express: Developer Finn Voorhees has demonstrated an AI agent capable of directly operating an iPhone. He only sent one prompt asking the agent to find the cheapest Ryanair flight to London for the next day. The agent then opened Ryanair on its own, input the destination, selected the date, checked fares, and finally returned to the chat interface to report the result—no computer was involved throughout the process. This agent runs in PiChat, an iPhone chat app developed by Voorhees. It leverages his previously open-sourced PiDurableKit at its core, running the Pi Agent on the iPhone via Apple’s JavaScriptCore to handle model calls, tool execution, and task management. The video uses Claude Opus 5.5, with model inference still running in the cloud. To enable the agent to continue working after switching to other apps, PiChat also uses Apple’s background task mechanism and saves execution progress via SQLite for easy resumption after interruptions. The most critical cross-app control code has not been made public. When activating iPhone Control in the video, the system required entering the lock screen password to enable XCTest UI automation. XCTest is Apple’s UI testing framework that can simulate taps, swipes, and text input. The open-source project TouchSynthesis leverages XCTest’s private interfaces to let iPhones generate touch events on their own, eliminating the need for real-time computer control. However, Voorhees has not confirmed whether he used this approach.

SK Hynix Chairman: Chip Demand Far Exceeds Expectations, New Gwangju Campus to Commence Construction as Soon as Possible
SK Group Chairman Choi Tae-won said today that chip demand is expected to continue growing rapidly, so SK Hynix will accelerate the construction of its semiconductor campus in Gwangju, South Korea as much as possible, and plans to release a specific timeline soon. Choi noted that SK Hynix has brought forward the completion target of its Yongin semiconductor campus from 2045 to 2033, but future production capacity may still fall short of demand, and the company does not rule out advancing the construction of both the Yongin and Gwangju campuses simultaneously. The planned scale of the Gwangju campus is about two-thirds that of the Yongin campus, and it may be expanded later. Currently, the specific start date of the Gwangju project has not been finalized, and construction progress still requires coordination with the government for supporting infrastructure such as water and electricity. Choi added that even if some supporting facilities are not yet in place, the company may proceed with piling works first, but will not slash construction costs to rush the project.
Bitcoin price hovered at $83,000 on Friday as cryptocurrencies recovered from Thursday’s selloff following a week of losses. Ethereum price rose to over $2,500, and XRP recovered to $1.40 as the larger market began to stabilize.
The recovery was accompanied by President Donald Trump telling off other American attacks on Iran before the November 3 midterm elections.
The Fear and Greed Index stood at 59 in the Greed territory on Friday, compared to 64 the previous day.
CMC data
Trump Eases Iran Fears Ahead of US Midterm Elections Trump announced on Thursday that Washington would not be attacked again before the vote, as reported by the Associated Press. He also reported making progress with Tehran, indicating that diplomacy still went on despite previous failures.
His words provided a better roadmap following weeks of warnings of the possibility of military escalation after the elections. Trump has already suggested that a solution might appear soon before or after Americans vote. Seven months on, the war is still going on way beyond Trump initial predictions of military operations taking several weeks.
His announcement was a temporary halt, with the future of a permanent agreement still uncertain. The pledge did not indicate which military decisions would be made by Washington after the November elections.
This was met with apprehension during negotiations that Trump turned down an Iranian proposal on the Strait of Hormuz late last month. The strategy by Tehran would have opened the shipping route within seven days had Washington accepted some conditions.
President Trump said Thursday the U.S. will not attack Iran ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections.

The US has issued a counterproposal to Iran in form of diplomatic exchanges, which continued last week with Iran saying it has counterproposed. Thursday saw the Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi tell that Tehran anticipates giving its official answer within days.
In the meantime, American military movements had not been halted, as provided by Trump in his social media post. The USS Theodore Roosevelt and other supporting ships, according to the officials of the U.S., would arrive in the area at the end of October.
Can Bitcoin Price Hold $82,000 and Extend Its Recent Rebound? The BTC price stands at $83,103 after recovering from below $82,000.
The Chaikin Money Flow indicator has a value of 0.14 after crossing the zero-line indicating a fresh accumulation in the recent recovery.
The MACD line is at -657.44, which is higher than its -689.24 signal line and the histogram has gone positive at 31.80. The crossover indicates a downward pressure but the MACD is below zero and the broader trend is under strain.
BTC/USDT 4-hour chart: TradingView The recovery will be reinforced with a four-hour close above $84,000 and put the next marked resistance of $86,000 in the spotlight for the Bitcoin long-term prediction.
Nonetheless, further rejection around 84,000 might expose Bitcoin to another test of faith at about 82,000. A four-hour close below 82,000 would undermine the recovery and the psychological 80,000 zone would become a potential point of downside.
Bitcoin ETF Outflows Reach $244M With Only Franklin Drawing Inflows On October 8, the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF market registered net outflows amounting to $244 million, as per sosovalue data. The Bitcoin ETF EZBC by Franklin was the only fund that registered a net inflow.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs See $244 Million in Net Outflows on October 8
On October 8 (ET), U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded total net outflows of $244 million, with only the Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC) reporting a net inflow. Spot Ethereum ETFs saw total net outflows of $72.544 million, marking their eighth consecutive day of net outflows.
— Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) October 9, 2026
There were also net outflows in Spot Ethereum ETFs, and the withdrawals in the form of ETFs were more than deposits in the form of ETFs, at 72.544 million. The numbers were the eighth day of net outflows of Ethereum.
Bitcoin dropped to about 80400 dollars on Thursday evening, triggering a cascade of liquidations across the entire crypto market. Nearly 1.19 billion dollars of positions were closed within 24 hours, before a BTC rebound above 82000 dollars.
In Brief Bitcoin falls to 80400 dollars triggering nearly 1.19 billion dollars of crypto liquidations in 24 hours. Long positions account for over one billion dollars of forced losses. ETH records 356 million dollars of liquidations, compared to 298 million for Bitcoin. Tensions with Iran, US rates, and ETF outflows increase market nervousness. Bitcoin rebounds above 82000 dollars, but 83000 and 80000 dollar thresholds remain critical. Crypto Liquidations Hit Buyers Most The drop surprised a market heavily exposed to the upside. Traders had accumulated leveraged positions while bitcoin oscillated between 83000 and 87000 dollars. Breaking this zone triggered automatic chain closures.
A liquidation occurs when a trader’s losses consume the collateral deposited to maintain their position. The platform then closes the bet, often by selling the asset in an already bearish market, which temporarily intensifies the drop.
Data over 24 hours show the scale of the movement :
About 1.19 billion dollars of crypto positions were liquidated ; More than one billion came from long positions betting on an increase ; Ether accounted for nearly 356 million dollars of liquidations ; Bitcoin followed with about 298 million dollars ; Solana represented 71 million dollars, compared to 34 million for XRP ; The largest liquidated position reached nearly 20 million dollars on Hyperliquid. An initial estimate counted 1.02 billion dollars and 164899 traders affected. The total later increased as platforms updated their data. So the billion does not concern only bitcoin, but all followed crypto derivatives.
Ether Suffers Disproportionate Purge Liquidations on Ether exceeded those of bitcoin, although its market cap represents less than a fifth of BTC’s. Relative to the size of each asset, the purge hit ETH positions about six times harder.
Ether recorded nearly 1.2 million dollars of liquidations per billion dollars of capitalization. Bitcoin’s ratio was around 180000 dollars. This difference reveals particularly high leverage on ETH-related products.
Ether’s price fell to about 2410 dollars before rising toward 2490 dollars. Bitcoin hit 80400 dollars then recovered above 82400 dollars. XRP rebounded from 1.32 to about 1.40 dollars, while Dogecoin remains near 0.085 dollar.
These recoveries do not immediately offset the losses of liquidated traders. A forced closure is final, even if the market regains its previous level a few hours later.
Rates, Iran, and ETF Outflows Weigh on Market The break occurred in an already unfavorable macroeconomic environment. Brent crude exceeded 104 dollars a barrel, while the yield on US ten-year bonds approached 5.3%.
Rising oil feeds inflation concerns. The Federal Reserve minutes also showed that most officials still considered another rate hike before year-end. High yields generally reduce the appeal of risky assets.
Tensions with Iran increased market nervousness. Reports mentioned military options prepared by the Pentagon, without deciding a new US strike. Bitcoin then rebounded when Donald Trump ruled out intervention before midterm elections.
The ETFs added extra pressure. US spot bitcoin funds recorded 487.07 million dollars of net outflows on Wednesday. Ether ETFs lost about 160.8 million dollars. These withdrawals do not prove they triggered the drop, but signal weaker institutional demand during the session.
Bitcoin rebound liquidates sellers in turn Bitcoin’s return toward 82200 dollars quickly trapped short positions opened after the drop. About 25 million dollars were liquidated in four hours, 78% of which came from traders betting on a continued decline.
This reaction illustrates volatility created by an overleveraged market. Long positions first amplified the drop, then short positions fueled the rebound when they were automatically closed.
Trader Scott Melker considers falling below 82800 dollars as a “potentially healthy retest” that does not necessarily invalidate medium-term structural improvement. However, he identifies the 50-week moving average, around 77000 dollars, as a possible next support.
83000 dollars now constitutes the first resistance to reclaim. Staying above this level would reduce the risk of a new cascade. Conversely, a sustained loss of 80000 dollars could bring the market back toward 77000 dollars, without guaranteeing that this level will actually be reached.

MAJURO, Marshall Islands, Oct. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Remittix has opened its PayFi platform to 1,000 invited RTX holders, marking a major product milestone ahead of the project’s scheduled November 24, 2026 token launch.
Invited users can test EUR and USD payment routes while Remittix prepares additional currencies, assets and networks. The rollout moves the project into real-user validation ahead of wider availability.
The milestone arrives as Bitcoin price prediction models stretch toward $175,000 and Dogecoin bulls revive the $1 target. Those forecasts demonstrate the scale of the market’s ambitions, while Remittix offers an earlier entry into the payment sector through a platform approaching its first public-market cycle.
Remittix Takes Crypto-to-Bank Payments Into Testing
Remittix is designed to simplify one of crypto’s most persistent problems: moving value from digital assets into ordinary financial life. Its PayFi model allows a sender to fund an eligible transfer with crypto while the recipient receives fiat through a compatible bank account.
The first 1,000 invited holders can test crypto-to-fiat and fiat-to-crypto functions using EUR and USD. Supported assets include USDT and USDC across Ethereum, Celo, Base and Polygon, with broader currency and network coverage planned.
This structure is intended for freelancers, overseas suppliers, family remittances and crypto withdrawals. Instead of requiring recipients to navigate wallets and exchanges, Remittix aims to make settlement feel familiar.
One Platform Connects Payments, Trading and Earning
The Remittix ecosystem extends beyond PayFi. Its iOS wallet has surpassed 10,000 downloads, while an Android release is awaiting approval. A planned wallet rebuild will bring the project’s expanding product suite into a more unified experience.
Its trading platform, Remittix Markets, is already widely used by traders, offers hundreds of perpetual pairs and has processed more than $50 million in volume. Remittix Earn is also approaching release, with advertised yields of up to 22% APY on eligible holdings.
Connecting payments, storage, trading and earning could create several sources of recurring RTX activity. A payment customer could also become a wallet user, trader or Earn participant.
Bitcoin Price Prediction and Dogecoin Outlook Turn Ambitious
Bitcoin recently traded in the low-$80,000 range after gaining more than 30% over the preceding three months. A $175,000 Bitcoin price prediction would represent more than a doubling from that region, supported by an aggressive institutional-adoption case involving ETFs, corporate treasuries and Bitcoin’s fixed supply.
Dogecoin has recently traded near $0.09. Reaching $1 would require an increase of more than tenfold, placing the target inside a powerful retail-led bull scenario. Recent Dogecoin ETF inflows and a break above a long-term descending trendline have helped keep the $1 discussion active.
Both targets require enormous new capital. Remittix starts from a much earlier stage, with a utility product entering testing before RTX reaches public exchanges.
RTX Enters Its Final Pre-Launch Window
Remittix has raised more than $32 million from over 40,000 participants toward its $36 million hard cap. RTX is currently available at $0.23, while $0.46 is the announced final presale price and planned minimum exchange launch price.
With testing active and the November 24 date confirmed, the remaining presale period is the last opportunity to access RTX before open-market trading begins. PayFi, Markets, the wallet and Earn give Remittix multiple growth engines capable of turning one token launch into a much broader crypto-finance story.
About Remittix
Remittix is developing a connected PayFi ecosystem for crypto-to-bank and bank-to-crypto transactions. Its products include international payment settlement, a mobile wallet, Remittix Markets and the forthcoming Remittix Earn service.

Kripto piyasasında son 24 saatte 1,19 milyar dolarlık kaldıraçlı pozisyon tasfiye oldu. En büyük darbeyi Ethereum aldı. Ethereum pozisyonlarında 356 milyon dolarlık tasfiye yaşanırken Bitcoin tarafındaki rakam 298 milyon dolarda kaldı.
Ethereum‘un piyasa değeri Bitcoin’in beşte birinden daha küçük olmasına rağmen yaşadığı tasfiye miktarı Bitcoin’i geçti. Piyasadaki satış baskısını faiz beklentileri, İran gerilimi ve yapay zekanın kripto cüzdanlarına yönelik oluşturabileceği riskler artırdı. Bitcoin ise ABD Başkanı Donald Trump’ın İran’a yönelik olası saldırıyla ilgili açıklamasının ardından yeniden 82.000 doların üzerine çıktı.
Ethereum’de Tasfiyeler Neden Bitcoin’i Geçti? Ethereum, son 24 saatte tasfiye edilen pozisyonların toplam değeri bakımından Bitcoin’i geride bıraktı. Ethereum’de yaklaşık 356 milyon dolarlık pozisyon kapanırken Bitcoin’de bu rakam 298 milyon dolar oldu.
Ancak piyasa değerine oranlandığında fark daha da belirginleşiyor. Kaynağın aktardığı hesaplamaya göre her 1 milyar dolarlık piyasa değerine karşılık Ethereum’de yaklaşık 1,2 milyon dolarlık tasfiye yaşandı. Bitcoin’de ise aynı oran yaklaşık 180.000 dolar seviyesinde kaldı. Böylece Ethereum’un piyasa değerine göre tasfiye etkisi Bitcoin’in yaklaşık altı katına ulaştı.
Ethereum fiyatı bu süreçte %3’ten fazla gerileyerek yaklaşık 2.490 dolara inerken Bitcoin’in kaybı %1 civarında kaldı. Fiyatlardaki bu ayrışma, kaldıraçlı işlem yapan Ethereum yatırımcılarının daha ağır bir darbe aldığını gösterdi.
Kripto Piyasasında 1,19 Milyar Dolarlık Tasfiye Nasıl Gerçekleşti? Kripto piyasasındaki toplam tasfiye miktarı 1,19 milyar dolara ulaştı. Bunun 1 milyar doların üzerindeki kısmı yükseliş bekleyen yatırımcıların pozisyonlarından geldi. Bu yatırımcılar, Bitcoin ve diğer kripto varlıkların yükseleceği beklentisiyle işlem açmıştı.
Kaldıraçlı işlemlerde yatırımcılar, teminatlarının karşılayamayacağı büyüklükte pozisyonlar açabiliyor. Fiyat beklenen yönün tersine hareket ettiğinde borsa pozisyonu otomatik olarak kapatıyor. Bu işlem, özellikle fiyatların hızla düştüğü dönemlerde yeni satış baskısı yaratabiliyor.
Günün en büyük tekil tasfiyesi, merkeziyetsiz kaldıraçlı işlem platformu Hyperliquid üzerinde yaklaşık 20 milyon dolarlık Ethereum pozisyonunda yaşandı.
Diğer altcoinlerde de önemli kayıplar görüldü. Solana pozisyonlarında 71 milyon dolar, XRP’de 34 milyon dolar ve NEAR’da 25 milyon dolar tasfiye gerçekleşti. Diğer tokenların toplam tasfiye miktarı ise yaklaşık 119 milyon dolara ulaştı.
Bitcoin 82.200 Dolara Neden Yükseldi? Bitcoin, perşembe günü yaklaşık 83.200 dolardan 80.400 dolara kadar geriledi. Ancak ABD Başkanı Donald Trump’ın ara seçimlerden önce İran’a saldırı düzenlenmeyeceğini açıklamasının ardından fiyat yeniden toparlandı ve yaklaşık 82.200 dolara çıktı.
Bu toparlanma, düşüşün devam edeceğine oynayan yatırımcıları da zor durumda bıraktı. Son dört saatte tasfiye edilen yaklaşık 25 milyon dolarlık pozisyonun %78’ini Bitcoin fiyatının düşmesini bekleyen yatırımcılar oluşturdu.
Son bir saatte de yaklaşık 13 milyon dolarlık tasfiye yaşandı. Bunun yaklaşık 12 milyon doları kısa pozisyonlardan geldi. Fiyatın yükselmesiyle düşüş yönünde açılan işlemlerin kapanması, toparlanmanın hız kazanmasına katkıda bulundu.
Ancak Bitcoin henüz perşembe günkü satışların başladığı 83.000 dolar seviyesini geri kazanamadı. Kaynaktaki verilere göre fiyat, bu seviyenin yaklaşık 800 dolar altında bulunuyordu.
Fed ve İran Gerilimi Kripto Fiyatlarını Neden Baskıladı? Bitcoin’deki sert düşüşün arkasında birden fazla gelişme vardı. Fed toplantı tutanakları, yetkililerin çoğunun yıl sonundan önce yeni bir faiz artışı beklediğini gösterdi. Bu beklenti, riskli varlıklara yönelik iştahı zayıflatırken İran’da çatışmaların yeniden başlayabileceğine ilişkin haberler petrol fiyatlarını yukarı itti.
Ethereum araştırmacısı Justin Drake’in yapay zekaya ilişkin uyarısı da piyasadaki tedirginliği artırdı. Drake, yapay zekanın kripto cüzdanlarını koruyan kriptografik sistemleri beklenenden daha erken tehdit edebileceği konusunda uyardı.
Üstelik yatırımcılar hafta boyunca Bitcoin 83.000-87.000 dolar aralığında hareket ederken kaldıraçlı pozisyonlarını artırmıştı. Fiyat bu aralığın altına gerileyince çok sayıda pozisyon tasfiye oldu ve düşüş baskısı yoğunlaştı.
10 Ekim 2025’teki Büyük Tasfiye Yeniden Gündemde Piyasadaki sert hareketler, 10 Ekim 2025’te yaşanan tarihi tasfiye dalgasını da yeniden gündeme getirdi. O gün kripto piyasasında yaklaşık 19 milyar dolarlık pozisyon tek günde tasfiye olmuştu. Perşembe günü kaydedilen 1,19 milyar dolarlık miktar, bu tarihi toplamın yaklaşık 16’da birine karşılık geliyor.
Aradan geçen bir yıla rağmen kaldıraçlı işlemlerin fiyat hareketlerini büyütebilmesi, piyasadaki temel risklerden biri olmayı sürdürüyor. Bitcoin’in 83.000 dolar seviyesini yeniden kazanıp kazanamayacağı ve spot talebin güçlenip güçlenmeyeceği, kısa vadeli görünüm açısından önem taşıyor.
Ethereum tarafındaki 356 milyon dolarlık tasfiye ise tek başına kalıcı bir düşüşün başladığını kanıtlamıyor. Ancak piyasa değerine oranla yaşanan ağır tasfiye, kaldıraçlı pozisyonların fiyat hareketlerine ne kadar duyarlı hale gelebildiğini gösteriyor.

Kripto para piyasası üzerindeki satış baskısı sürerken Bitcoin, gün içinde 80.300 dolar seviyesine kadar geriledikten sonra yeniden 82.000 doların üzerine yükseldi. ABD Başkanı Donald Trump’ın İran’a yönelik olası askeri adımlarla ilgili açıklamaları, piyasalardaki toparlanmanın önünü açtı. Buna rağmen Bitcoin ve diğer büyük dijital varlıklar, son 24 saatlik performanslarında kayıplarını tamamen telafi edemedi.
Toplam piyasa değeri yüzde 1,10 azalarak 2,79 trilyon dolara geriledi. Bitcoin’in yeniden yükselmesi kısa vadeli satış baskısını hafifletse de Ethereum ve Solana gibi önde gelen altcoinlerde daha belirgin düşüşler görüldü. ETF piyasasındaki para çıkışları da yatırımcıların temkinli tutumunu ortaya koydu.
Bitcoin 80.300 Dolardan Nasıl Toparlandı? Bitcoin, günün erken saatlerinde 80.300 dolara kadar düşerek dikkat çekti. Ardından gelen alımlarla yükselen BTC, TSİ 08.47 itibarıyla 82.358 dolara ulaştı. Bu toparlanmaya karşın lider kripto para, 24 saatlik dönemde yüzde 0,54 değer kaybetti.
Diğer büyük kripto paralarda da benzer bir tablo oluştu ancak kayıpların büyüklüğü farklılaştı. Ethereum yüzde 3,06 düşerek 2.490 dolara gerilerken XRP yüzde 0,56 kayıpla 1,39 dolara indi. Solana ise yüzde 4,31 değer kaybederek 110,34 dolara düştü.
Gün içindeki toparlanma, piyasadaki bütün varlıkların yükselişe geçtiği anlamına gelmiyor. Veriler, bazı kripto paraların dip seviyelerinden uzaklaşmasına rağmen genel görünümün negatif kaldığını gösteriyor.
Trump’ın İran Açıklaması Piyasayı Nasıl Etkiledi? Bitcoin’deki yükseliş, Donald Trump’ın İran konusunda yaptığı açıklamaların ardından belirginleşti. Trump, ABD’de 3 Kasım’da yapılacak ara seçimlerden önce İran’a saldırı düzenlemeyeceklerini söyledi. İran’la yürütülen görüşmeleri verimli olarak nitelendiren ABD Başkanı, buna rağmen deniz ablukasının tüm gücüyle devam edeceğini belirtti.
Açıklamaların ardından Bitcoin’in 80.300 dolar civarındaki düşüşü durdu ve fiyat kademeli şekilde 82.000 doların üzerine çıktı. Ethereum, XRP ve Solana da gün içinde kaybettikleri değerin bir kısmını geri kazandı.
Jeopolitik gelişmeler, yatırımcıların risk alma isteğini kısa sürede değiştirebiliyor. Ancak açıklamaların ardından gelen toparlanma, satış baskısının tamamen ortadan kalktığını kanıtlamıyor. İran’la görüşmelerin seyri ve ABD’nin sonraki adımları, piyasaların yönü açısından izlenmeye devam edecek.
Altcoinlerde En Çok Yükselen Ve Düşenler Hangileri? Büyük kripto paralardaki kayıplara rağmen bazı altcoinler pozitif ayrıştı. Starknet (STRK), son 24 saatte yüzde 40,10 yükselerek dönemin en fazla değer kazanan varlığı oldu. Near Protocol (NEAR) ise yüzde 10,51 düşüşle en fazla değer kaybeden kripto para olarak öne çıktı.
Bu farklılaşma, genel piyasa düşüşünün bütün projeleri aynı ölçüde etkilemediğini gösteriyor. Yine de kısa vadeli yükselişler, tek başına kalıcı bir trendin başladığı anlamına gelmiyor. Yatırımcıların fiyat hareketlerini işlem hacmi ve piyasanın genel yönüyle birlikte değerlendirmesi gerekiyor.
Kripto ETF’lerinden Ne Kadar Para Çıktı? 8 Ekim tarihli fon verileri, spot Bitcoin ve Ethereum ETF’lerinde çıkışların sürdüğünü ortaya koydu. Spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinden 244,13 milyon dolar, spot Ethereum ETF’lerinden ise 72,54 milyon dolar net çıkış gerçekleşti.
Altcoin odaklı fonlarda ise farklı yönlerde akışlar görüldü. XRP ETF’leri 8,17 milyon dolar, NEAR ETF’leri 4,04 milyon dolar ve AVAX ETF’leri 2,52 milyon dolar net giriş aldı. Buna karşılık SOL ETF’lerinden 3,32 milyon dolar, ZEC ETF’lerinden 18,66 milyon dolar ve HYPE ETF’lerinden 9,70 milyon dolar net çıkış yaşandı.
BNB, TRX, DOGE, LINK, LTC, HBAR ve DOT ETF’lerinde ise herhangi bir fon akışı kaydedilmedi. Bu tablo, yatırımcı ilgisinin dijital varlıklar arasında farklılaştığını gösteriyor.

Bitcoin (BTC), kripto para piyasasındaki dalgalanmalarla birlikte kritik fiyat seviyelerinde işlem görmeye devam ederken Bitfinex analistlerinden dikkat çeken bir değerlendirme geldi. Analistler, Bitcoin’in kısa vadeli yönünü belirleyebilecek en önemli seviyenin 84.000 dolar olduğunu vurguladı. Bu bölgenin korunması halinde 90.000 dolara doğru yükseliş ihtimali gündeme gelebilirken desteğin kaybedilmesi, satış baskısının derinleşmesine neden olabilir. Yatırımcıların odağında ise Bitcoin ETF akışları ve kritik destek seviyeleri bulunuyor.
Bitfinex Bitcoin İçin 84.000 Dolar Seviyesine Dikkat Çekti Kripto para borsası Bitfinex tarafından yayımlanan analize göre 84.000 dolar seviyesi, Bitcoin fiyatının gelecekteki hareketleri açısından önemli bir eşik olarak öne çıkıyor. Analistler, yaklaşık 769.000 BTC’nin 84.000 ile 84.500 dolar aralığında satın alındığını ve bu varlıkların toplam değerinin yaklaşık 64 milyar dolara ulaştığını belirtiyor. Bu yoğun maliyet bölgesi, Bitcoin’in yeniden toparlanabilmesi açısından kritik görülüyor. BTC fiyatının 84.000 dolar üzerinde kalıcılık sağlaması, alıcıların güç kazanmasına ve yükseliş beklentilerinin desteklenmesine yardımcı olabilir.

Bitfinex analistleri, Bitcoin’in 84.000 dolar desteğini kaybetmesi durumunda fiyatın ilk etapta 82.600 ile 81.300 dolar arasındaki destek bölgesine gerileyebileceğini değerlendiriyor. Özellikle 81.300 dolar seviyesi, mevcut piyasa yapısının korunması açısından önemli bir sınır olarak gösteriliyor. Bitcoin’in bu bölgeden destek bulması halinde yeniden toparlanma ihtimali gündemde kalabilir. Ancak 81.300 doların altında kalıcı fiyat hareketleri görülmesi, satış baskısının artmasına ve 77.400 dolar seviyesinin yeniden test edilmesine yol açabilir.
Bitcoin 90.000 Dolara Yükselecek mi? Bitfinex, Bitcoin’in önümüzdeki dönemde izleyebileceği fiyat hareketlerini üç farklı senaryoyla değerlendiriyor.
İlk senaryoda BTC’nin 84.000 dolar üzerinde tutunması, spot Bitcoin ETF girişlerinin pozitif kalması ve kısa vadeli yatırımcıların satış baskısını artırmaması halinde 87.700 dolar direncinin aşılması bekleniyor. Bu durumda 90.000 dolar seviyesi yeniden gündeme gelebilir. İkinci senaryoda 84.000 doların kaybedilmesine rağmen 81.300 dolar desteğinin korunması, toparlanma ihtimalinin devam ettiği bir görünüm olarak değerlendiriliyor. Üçüncü senaryoda ise 81.300 doların kırılması ve ETF çıkışlarının hızlanması halinde düşüşün 77.400 dolara kadar derinleşebileceği belirtiliyor. Bitfinex analistleri, Bitcoin’de yaşanabilecek yeni bir satış dalgasının altcoin piyasasında daha sert fiyat hareketlerine neden olabileceği konusunda da uyarıyor. Özellikle Bitcoin’in 81.300 dolar desteğini kaybetmesi ve yatırımcıların riskli varlıklardan uzaklaşması, Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP ve diğer altcoinler üzerinde ek baskı oluşturabilir. Buna karşılık Bitcoin’in 84.000 dolar seviyesini yeniden kazanması ve 87.700 dolar direncini aşması, kripto para piyasasında risk iştahının toparlanmasını destekleyebilir. Bu nedenle yatırımcıların Bitcoin fiyatının yanı sıra ETF girişlerini ve genel piyasa hacmini de yakından izlemesi önem taşıyor.
Değerlendirme Bitfinex’in Bitcoin analizine göre 84.000 dolar seviyesi, kısa vadeli yükseliş ve düşüş senaryolarının merkezinde yer alıyor. Bu seviyenin üzerinde kalıcılık sağlanması, 87.700 ve 90.000 dolar hedeflerini gündeme getirebilirken 81.300 dolar desteğinin kaybedilmesi, 77.400 dolara doğru geri çekilme riskini artırabilir. Önümüzdeki süreçte Bitcoin ETF akışları, yatırımcı davranışları ve kritik teknik seviyeler, BTC fiyatının yönü açısından belirleyici olabilir.

New bitcoin lending system is set to debut. (Shubham Dhage/Unsplash)Summary
Layer-1 blockchain Sui is launching Hashi, an institutional protocol allowing holders to use Bitcoin as collateral without moving it off the Bitcoin network.The system is debuting with $500 million in capital commitments from a coalition of over 20 industry partners to ensure deep day-one liquidity.Hashi’s mainnet will roll out in phases, targeting a massive pool of roughly $1 trillion in dormant, institutional Bitcoin.Bitcoin BTC$82,582.92-backed finance is about to get a massive, well-funded liquidity boost.
Layer-1 blockchain Sui is set to launch Hashi, a new institutional network that allows holders to use Bitcoin as collateral for lending without moving it off the Bitcoin ledger. The mainnet is slated to roll out in phases later this month.
To back the ecosystem, the initiative has already secured $500 million in capital commitments from a coalition of over 20 industry partners.
While these are commitments rather than immediate deposits, the pre-pledged capital ensures that when the system debuts, markets can open with deep liquidity instead of starting empty.
“Hashi is launching with serious capital and a coalition of industry leaders because institutions want to put Bitcoin to work without giving up the protections they require,” Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Mysten Labs, the original creator of Sui, said in an official announcement.
The primary target for this capital is a massive pool of dormant wealth. Sui estimates that roughly $1 trillion worth of Bitcoin is currently sitting idle. Until now, institutional and corporate balance-sheet holders have lacked a compliant, transparent ecosystem to safely deploy their native Bitcoin in decentralized finance (DeFi).
This launch comes amid a broader shift in Bitcoin-backed finance, where borrowing is moving far beyond speculative crypto trading. Bitcoin holders now use bitcoin-collateralized loans to cover real-world expenses like university tuition, real estate acquisitions, and corporate working capital.
"Public companies and institutions hold enormous amounts of Bitcoin, but their ability to use that capital has been constrained by the technology available to them," said Nathan McCauley, CEO and co-founder of Anchorage Digital, a day-one launch partner that also plans to supply stablecoin liquidity to the network.
"Connecting our institutional clients with Hashi represents a complete paradigm shift,” McCauley added.
Here’s how the system overcomes these institutional constraints. Instead of bridging across blockchains, users securely lock their BTC in a vault address directly on the Bitcoin blockchain. A 2-of-2 multisig secures this address, requiring cryptographic sign-off from both Hashi’s validators. Hashi also has a separate, independent guardian layer designed to monitor and slow suspicious collateral movements.
While the real bitcoin stays safely frozen on the Bitcoin network, Hashi mints hBTC, a digital voucher token on Sui, backed directly by that deposit. This is where the lending action begins. Apps on Sui can use these hBTC vouchers to fuel lending, borrowing, credit markets, and real-world asset trading. When a user wants to exit, the hBTC voucher is permanently burned on Sui, which triggers the multisig to safely unlock and release the original bitcoin back to the user on the Bitcoin network.
To meet strict institutional compliance and security standards, Hashi has undergone rigorous vetting. Security firm Certora formally verified Hashi's smart contracts, while another firm, CommonPrefix, reviewed the cryptography of its multi-party computation (MPC) protocol.

9 October 2026 | 12:02 Sui’s Hashi is preparing a phased mainnet rollout later this month with more than $500 million in committed capital. Anchorage Digital has joined the launch coalition, adding custody-based and self-custody routes for institutions that want to use Bitcoin as collateral.
Key Takeaways Hashi plans a phased mainnet launch later in October. More than $500 million has been committed across its launch coalition. Deposited BTC supports hBTC, the collateral token used in Sui applications. Anchorage offers qualified-custody and self-custody access routes. Mainnet will show whether committed capital becomes usable liquidity The Sui Foundation said Hashi will begin a phased mainnet rollout later in October. Its coalition includes more than 20 partners, with Aftermath, Concrete and Fluid among the providers expected to run vaults. Hashi supplies the infrastructure, while third parties create the lending, borrowing and other financial products that users will actually access.
The coalition had already expanded with Cumberland, Fluid and SwissBorg ahead of Hashi’s July global testnet. Mainnet now moves that work into a setting where lenders need to supply assets, borrowers need to accept the terms, and vaults need to function under live conditions.
Depositing Bitcoin creates a controlled collateral position Hashi begins with a Bitcoin deposit. A user sends BTC to a Hashi-generated Bitcoin address; after the required confirmations and delay, the system mints an equivalent amount of hBTC on Sui. That hBTC can then serve as collateral in a lending or other financial application.
BTC stays on the Bitcoin ledger, while hBTC gives the depositor a usable position inside Sui applications. Releasing that BTC requires authorization through Hashi’s MPC committee and Guardian layer, according to the project’s technical documentation. The arrangement moves control away from a single ordinary wallet and into a shared signing structure.
Participation in the committee requires Sui validators to separately register and operate the necessary services; it does not automatically include the entire validator set. On withdrawal, the matching hBTC is burned on Sui before the committee and Guardian authorize a Bitcoin transaction back to the user’s chosen address, less network fees.
Once BTC is represented by hBTC, the next question is who can use that collateral under their own custody rules. Anchorage’s role addresses that part of the launch.
Anchorage offers two routes into Hashi Institutions do not all work under the same custody model. A public company may require regulated collateral arrangements, while a crypto-native fund may prefer to manage its own wallet and interact with applications directly.
Anchorage Digital has set out two ways for clients to reach Hashi. Atlas, its settlement and tri-party collateral infrastructure, is designed for organizations operating under qualified-custody and compliance requirements. Anchorage says assets can remain in qualified custody while being mobilized as collateral.
Its institutional self-custody wallet, Porto, provides the other route for clients seeking direct access to Hashi and the applications built around it. Those choices broaden the range of potential participants, yet the custody path alone does not establish the rate, collateral ratio or liquidation terms of a future loan.
$500M is committed capital, not a live lending balance
Confirmed: Hashi says more than $500 million has been committed across its launch coalition.
Still unknown: how much reaches mainnet at launch, which assets are supplied to each market and how much liquidity borrowers can access.
Borrowers need liquidity in the assets they want Committed capital does not automatically become borrowable liquidity. A borrower needs lenders to supply the asset they want to borrow, whether that is a stablecoin or another token. The Sui Foundation has not published a partner-by-partner allocation or a timetable for deploying the committed capital.
That leaves several practical questions for the first live markets: which assets are available, how much collateral they require, what interest rates apply and how liquidations work when Bitcoin’s price falls. The answers will differ between applications because the financial products are being created by independent providers.
Sui says access will expand as launch partners complete their integrations. The resulting loan terms and liquidity depth will show whether the network can serve Bitcoin holders who want financing without selling their holdings.
The institutional case rests on the terms after launch Hashi is aimed at holders that want to use Bitcoin without moving it onto another blockchain or abandoning the custody controls that govern their balance sheets. Its mainnet design combines Bitcoin-held collateral, Sui-side hBTC and different access routes for regulated institutions and self-directed market participants.
For those users, the size of the coalition is only a starting point. Borrowing costs, collateral requirements, withdrawal reliability and stablecoin depth will determine whether Bitcoin-backed finance on Sui becomes a practical treasury tool.

ABD’de işlem gören spot Bitcoin ETF‘lerinde (borsa yatırım fonları) sermaye çıkışları hız kesmeden devam ediyor. Kripto para piyasasında dalgalanmalar sürerken 8 Ekim işlem gününde fonlardan 244,1 milyon dolarlık net çıkış gerçekleşti. Böylece Bitcoin ETF’lerindeki negatif fon akışı üst üste ikinci işlem gününe taşınırken son beş günlük toplam net çıkış 510,1 milyon dolara ulaştı. Özellikle Fidelity fonunda yaşanan yüksek miktarlı çıkışlar, kurumsal yatırımcıların Bitcoin’e yönelik kısa vadeli yaklaşımını yeniden gündeme getirdi.
Bitcoin ETF’lerinden 244 Milyon Dolarlık Çıkış Gerçekleşti ABD spot Bitcoin ETF piyasasında satış baskısı devam ederken 8 Ekim tarihinde toplam 244,1 milyon dolarlık net sermaye çıkışı kaydedildi. Bir önceki işlem gününde yaşanan 484,9 milyon dolarlık çıkışın ardından negatif akışın ikinci güne taşınması, yatırımcıların riskli varlıklara yönelik temkinli yaklaşımını ortaya koydu. Son beş işlem günü değerlendirildiğinde ise Bitcoin ETF’lerinden toplam 510,1 milyon dolarlık net çıkış gerçekleşti. Bu gelişme, kurumsal yatırımcı talebinin kısa vadede zayıfladığına yönelik değerlendirmeleri artırdı.

Fon bazındaki verilere bakıldığında en yüksek sermaye çıkışının Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) tarafında gerçekleştiği görülüyor. Fidelity’nin spot Bitcoin ETF’sinden tek işlem gününde 197,1 milyon dolarlık net çıkış kaydedildi. Aynı dönemde ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) 20,3 milyon dolarlık, Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) ise 17,7 milyon dolarlık net çıkış yaşadı. Özellikle Fidelity fonundaki yüksek tutarlı hareket, Bitcoin ETF piyasasında yaşanan sermaye çıkışlarının önemli bir bölümünü oluşturdu.
Spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinde Toplam Net Giriş 57 Milyar Doları Aştı Kısa vadede yaşanan sermaye çıkışlarına rağmen ABD spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinin piyasaya sürüldükleri tarihten bu yana elde ettiği toplam net giriş güçlü seviyelerde kalmaya devam ediyor. Açıklanan verilere göre fonların kümülatif net sermaye girişi 57 milyar 157 milyon dolar seviyesinde bulunuyor. Bu tablo, son günlerdeki negatif fon akışına rağmen Bitcoin ETF’lerine uzun vadede önemli miktarda sermaye yönlendirildiğini gösteriyor. Bununla birlikte yeni çıkışların devam etmesi, toplam net giriş miktarının azalmasına ve piyasa duyarlılığının zayıflamasına neden olabilir.
Spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinde üst üste yaşanan sermaye çıkışları, Bitcoin fiyatının kısa vadeli hareketleri açısından yakından takip ediliyor. Özellikle kurumsal yatırımcıların fonlardan para çekmeye devam etmesi, BTC üzerindeki satış baskısını artırabilecek faktörler arasında değerlendiriliyor. Buna karşılık ETF girişlerinin yeniden pozitife dönmesi, piyasa güveninin toparlanmasına ve Bitcoin talebinin güçlenmesine katkı sağlayabilir. Yatırımcılar, önümüzdeki işlem günlerinde Fidelity, BlackRock ve diğer büyük fonların sermaye hareketlerini takip ederek Bitcoin piyasasının yönüne ilişkin yeni sinyaller arayacak.
Değerlendirme ABD spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinden son beş işlem gününde 510,1 milyon dolarlık net çıkış yaşanması, kripto para piyasasında kurumsal fon akışlarının önemini bir kez daha ortaya koydu. Fidelity fonundaki 197,1 milyon dolarlık çıkış dikkat çekerken toplam kümülatif net girişlerin 57 milyar doların üzerinde kalması, uzun vadeli sermaye birikiminin sürdüğünü gösteriyor. Önümüzdeki süreçte Bitcoin ETF giriş ve çıkışları, BTC fiyatı ve genel piyasa duyarlılığı açısından önemli göstergeler arasında yer almaya devam edecek.

Bitcoin 85.000 doların altına yeniden geriledi ve fiyat 83.000 dolar bölgesine çekildi. Glassnode verileri, son yükselişin düşük işlem hacmiyle geldiğini ve piyasaya yeni para girişinin sınırlı kaldığını gösteriyor. Santiment ise borsalardan son aylardaki en yüksek Bitcoin çıkışlarından birini kaydetti.
Bu iki veri seti farklı sinyaller veriyor. Glassnode, 81.000 doları aşağıdaki en önemli alım bölgesi olarak izlerken, borsa çıkışları satış için hazır Bitcoin miktarının azaldığına işaret ediyor.
Bitcoin Neden 85.000 Doların Altına Geriledi? Bitcoin, 85.000 doların üzerinde günlük kapanış yaptıktan yalnızca birkaç gün sonra bu seviyenin altına indi. Glassnode, hareketin düşük hacimle gerçekleştiğini belirtiyor.
Spot ve ETF işlemlerindeki toplam hacim, yedi günlük ortalamada günlük yaklaşık 6,8 milyar dolar seviyesinde kaldı. Bu rakam, Ocak 2024’ten bu yana görülen günlerin 10’da 9’undaki seviyeden daha düşük.
ABD tarafındaki talep de güçlü görünmüyor. Coinbase Premium Endeksi -0,056 seviyesinde. Bu gösterge Bitcoin’in Coinbase’de Binance’e kıyasla daha düşük fiyattan işlem gördüğünü ifade ediyor. Endeks eylül başından bu yana sıfırın altında kalıyor.
Yeni sermaye girişi de yükselişin gerisinde kaldı. ETF akışları, stablecoin büyümesi ve şirketlerin Bitcoin alımları 5 Ekim’e kadar geçen 30 günde yaklaşık 4,9 milyar dolar yeni para getirdi.
Aynı dönemde Bitcoin’in Realized Cap değeri yaklaşık 12,8 milyar dolar arttı. Glassnode, yeni paranın bu artışın beşte ikisinden daha azını karşıladığını hesapladı.
Bu fark önemli. Realized Cap yükselirken piyasaya giren yeni para sınırlı kalıyorsa, hareketin büyük bölümünü zaten piyasada bulunan yatırımcıların daha yüksek fiyatlardan yaptığı işlemler oluşturuyor.
Glassnode’a göre 2024 ve 2025 rallilerinde de benzer bir yapı görüldü ancak o dönemlerde yeni para girişleri çok daha büyüktü.
Bitcoin’i Kim Satıyor? Bitcoin’in 4 Ekim’de 85.000 doların üzerinde ilk günlük kapanışını yapmasının ardından bazı yatırımcılar satışa geçti. O gün borsalara giren Bitcoinlerin yaklaşık %86’sı 155 günden kısa süredir tutulan coinlerden oluştu.
Glassnode, son bir yılda hiçbir günde bu kadar yüksek bir orana ulaşılmadığını belirtiyor. Bu durum, son dönemde BTC alan yatırımcıların fiyat yükselince kâr alma eğiliminin arttığını gösteriyor.
Vadeli işlemlerde de iştah azaldı. Analist MAC_D’nin verilerine göre Bitcoin açık pozisyonları 22 Eylül’den bu yana yaklaşık %10 düşerek 28,8 milyar dolardan 26 milyar dolara geriledi.
Buna karşılık Santiment’in borsa verileri farklı bir tablo ortaya koyuyor. Platform, 5 Ekim’de borsalardan 24.073 BTC net çıkışı kaydetti. Bu, 1 Mart’tan bu yana görülen en yüksek günlük net çıkış oldu.
Borsalarda tutulan Bitcoin’in toplam arzdaki payı da yaklaşık %6,50’ye geriledi. Santiment bunu yükseliş açısından olumlu değerlendiriyor çünkü borsalarda daha az Bitcoin bulunması, hemen satışa gelebilecek arzın azalması anlamına geliyor.
Dolayısıyla piyasada iki ayrı hareket aynı anda yaşanıyor: Kısa vadeli yatırımcılar yükselişlerde satış yaparken, Bitcoin’in bir bölümü borsalardan çekilmeye devam ediyor.
81.000 Dolar Seviyesi Bitcoin İçin Tutunma Noktası Olabilir mi? Glassnode’un 7 Ekim’e kadar olan Binance emir defteri verilerinde 81.000-81.250 dolar aralığı aşağıdaki en büyük alış bölgesi olarak öne çıkıyor. Bu emirler 3 Ekim’den bu yana piyasada bulunuyor.
Fiyatın hemen altında başka bir risk daha var. 81.700-83.300 dolar arasında yoğun bir tasfiye kümesi bulunuyor. Bitcoin bu bölgeye gerilerse kaldıraçlı long pozisyonların zorunlu kapanışları düşüşü hızlandırabilir.
Bir sonraki tasfiye kümesi ise yaklaşık 75.000 dolarda.
Yukarıda ise önce 85.500 dolar izleniyor. Glassnode’a göre bu seviyenin üzerinde gerçekleşecek bir günlük kapanış, Bitcoin’in hafta içinde kaybettiği bölgeyi yeniden kazanmasını sağlayabilir.
Ardından 86.500-86.750 dolar arasında yoğun satış emirleri bulunuyor. Bunun üzerinde ise 87.100-95.900 dolar arasında short tasfiye bölgesi yer alıyor. En yoğun alan yaklaşık 92.000 dolar civarında.
Bitcoin bu seviyelerin üzerine çıkarsa short pozisyonların kapanması yükselişi hızlandırabilir. Aşağıda ise 81.000 dolar civarındaki alışların fiyatı taşıyıp taşıyamayacağı daha önemli hale geliyor.
Bir sonraki büyük makro gelişme 14 Ekim’de açıklanacak ABD TÜFE verisi olacak. Fed ise 27-28 Ekim’de toplanacak. Bu tarihlere kadar tahvil getirileri, ETF akışları ve Bitcoin’in 81.000-85.500 dolar arasındaki hareketi piyasanın yön arayışında belirleyici olabilir.

Bitcoin (BTC), ABD ile İran arasında artan askeri gerilimin etkisiyle satış baskısı yaşayarak 80.000 dolar seviyelerine kadar geriledi. Ancak ABD Başkanı Donald Trump’ın İran’a yönelik askeri operasyonlara ilişkin açıklamalarının ardından yeniden yükselişe geçen Bitcoin, 82.000 dolar seviyesine ulaştı. ABD ile İran arasındaki gerilimin azalabileceğine yönelik beklentiler, küresel piyasalarda risk iştahını artırırken petrol fiyatlarındaki gerileme de kripto para piyasasındaki toparlanmayı destekledi. Bitcoin’in yükselişiyle birlikte Ethereum (ETH), XRP ve Solana (SOL) gibi önde gelen altcoinlerde de alımlar hız kazandı. Yatırımcıların odağında ise Bitcoin’in kritik destek ve direnç seviyeleri yer alıyor.
Trump’ın İran Açıklaması Bitcoin Fiyatını Yükseltti ABD Başkanı Donald Trump, 3 Kasım’da gerçekleştirilecek ara seçimlerden önce İran’a yönelik herhangi bir askeri saldırı düzenlenmeyeceğini açıkladı. İran ile yürütülen görüşmeleri “verimli” olarak nitelendiren Trump, buna rağmen ABD tarafından uygulanan ablukanın tam güçle devam edeceğini vurguladı. Trump’ın açıklamaları, Orta Doğu’da artan jeopolitik gerilime ilişkin endişelerin hafiflemesine katkı sağlarken kripto para piyasasında da olumlu bir hava oluşturdu. Açıklama öncesinde 80.300 dolar civarında işlem gören Bitcoin (BTC), satış baskısının azalması ve alımların güçlenmesiyle yeniden yükselişe geçerek 82.000 dolar seviyesine ulaştı.

ABD ile İran arasında yeniden yükselen askeri gerilim, küresel enerji piyasalarında sert fiyat hareketlerine neden oldu. Özellikle olası bir askeri çatışmanın petrol arzını olumsuz etkileyebileceğine yönelik endişeler, WTI ham petrol fiyatlarının 89 dolardan 93,20 dolara kadar yükselmesini tetikledi. Ancak ABD Başkanı Donald Trump’ın İran’a yönelik açıklamalarının ardından piyasalardaki tansiyon kısmen düşerken petrol fiyatları 90,69 dolar seviyesine geriledi. Jeopolitik risklerin hafiflemesi, kripto para piyasasında da toparlanmayı destekledi. Bitcoin’in yeniden yükselişe geçmesiyle birlikte Ethereum (ETH), XRP ve Solana (SOL) gibi önde gelen altcoinlerde de alımlar güç kazandı.
Kripto Piyasasında Bunker Modu Endişeleri Tartışılıyor Ethereum Vakfı araştırmacısı Justin Drake’in gündeme getirdiği “bunker modu” önerisi, kripto para sektöründe dijital varlıkların güvenliğine ilişkin yeni tartışmaları beraberinde getirdi. Söz konusu yaklaşım, yapay zeka destekli matematiksel gelişmelerin mevcut kriptografik sistemler üzerinde oluşturabileceği potansiyel risklere karşı kripto varlıkların daha güvenli cüzdan adreslerine taşınmasını öngörüyor.
Ancak Coinbase’in önde gelen kriptograflarından Yehuda Lindell, bu endişeleri “FUD” olarak nitelendirerek eliptik eğri kriptografisinin güvenliğinin zayıfladığına dair somut bir kanıt bulunmadığını savundu. Ethereum kurucu ortağı Vitalik Buterin ise yapay zekanın kriptografik güvenlik üzerindeki olası etkilerinin ciddiye alınması gerektiğine dikkat çekti.
Hindistan merkezli kripto para borsası Giottus’un CEO’su Vikram Subburaj, Bitcoin (BTC) fiyatının kısa vadeli hareketleri açısından 81.000 dolar seviyesinin kritik bir destek noktası olduğunu belirtti. Subburaj’a göre Bitcoin’in yükseliş momentumunu koruyabilmesi için öncelikle 83.300 dolar direncini aşması, ardından 85.500 dolar seviyesine doğru ilerlemesi gerekiyor. Ancak 81.000 dolar desteğinin kaybedilmesi durumunda satış baskısının yeniden güçlenebileceği ve fiyatın ilk etapta 80.000 dolara, ardından 77.200 dolar civarındaki önemli zincir üstü destek bölgesine gerileyebileceği ifade ediliyor.
Değerlendirme Bitcoin’in (BTC) yeniden 82.000 dolar seviyesine yükselmesi, küresel jeopolitik gelişmelerin kripto para piyasası üzerindeki etkisini bir kez daha ortaya koydu. ABD ile İran arasındaki gerilimin hafiflemesi ve petrol fiyatlarındaki geri çekilme, yatırımcıların risk iştahını desteklerken Bitcoin ve önde gelen altcoinlerde toparlanma yaşandı. Ancak analistler, piyasadaki belirsizliklerin tamamen ortadan kalkmadığına dikkat çekiyor. Önümüzdeki süreçte Bitcoin’in 81.000 dolar desteğini koruyup koruyamayacağı ve 83.300 ile 85.500 dolar dirençlerini aşıp aşamayacağı, fiyatın kısa vadeli yönü açısından belirleyici olabilir. Yatırımcılar ise ABD-İran ilişkileri, petrol fiyatları ve kripto para piyasasındaki gelişmeleri yakından takip etmeyi sürdürüyor.

The company has built its identity around holding and financing Bitcoin at a scale no other listed operating company has matched. Its quarterly results now function as a window into how the corporate Bitcoin treasury model behaves through different market conditions.
Investors will be watching several things.
The obvious one is the size and value of Strategy‘s BTC position at the end of the quarter.
But the more important questions increasingly sit around the financing machinery used to build that position.
Strategy has used common equity, convertible debt and several classes of preferred securities to raise capital for Bitcoin purchases. That means its results are as much about capital structure as they are about the price of BTC.
The company has also promoted metrics intended to show whether its Bitcoin holdings are growing faster than the dilution required to finance them.
Those measures have become a central part of management’s argument that Strategy is not simply a passive holding vehicle.
October’s results will therefore give investors a chance to assess how the model performed during a quarter in which Bitcoin prices, funding conditions and institutional flows all moved considerably.
The call also matters beyond Strategy shareholders.
A growing number of public companies have copied parts of the Bitcoin treasury approach, often with much smaller balance sheets and less access to capital.
Strategy remains the benchmark against which those businesses are compared.
When its premium to underlying Bitcoin holdings expands, the company can often raise capital more efficiently. When that premium contracts, the economics become more challenging.
That feedback loop is one reason the quarterly balance sheet matters so much.
Michael Saylor‘s company has spent years arguing that Bitcoin can be used as the primary treasury reserve asset of a public corporation.
The market has largely moved past debating whether Strategy itself is committed to that idea.
The question is how the financial structure performs over time.
October 29 will provide the next detailed answer.
Strategy said a replay of the webinar will be available through its investor relations site shortly after the event.
For Bitcoin investors, it will be one of the few corporate earnings calls where the underlying cryptocurrency is likely to matter as much as the operating business.

Bitcoin software company Breez reported a sharp increase in demand for its developer tools following the mainstream adoption of AI coding agents, with partnership inquiries rising approximately 14 times their previous level. Breez highlighted that this demand has accelerated as both human developers and AI agents seek to integrate bitcoin payments into a broad range of applications.
AI agents reshape developer landscapeThe company linked this spike in interest to the release of Claude Code, an AI code generation tool launched by Anthropic in early 2025. Initially rolled out as a research preview and then made widely available three months later, Claude Code has enabled both experienced and novice developers to incorporate bitcoin functionality more easily into products and services.
Prior to the launch of Claude Code, Breez noted that its typical partners were predominantly established bitcoin advocates, cryptocurrency developers, or fintech firms focused on digital assets. However, the recent wave of requests originates from a more diverse set of sectors, including fitness and travel apps, messaging platforms looking to enable peer-to-peer payments, and even a project focused on mushroom identification.
Breez described how many newcomers are attracted by the speed of bitcoin integration. Unlike traditional payment systems—which can require lengthy onboarding, bank setup, and regulatory procedures—Breez claims that developers can implement its software development kit (SDK) for bitcoin payments in just minutes.
Breez stated, “Bitcoin is agnostic about whether the code of its current owner and user is composed of DNA base pairs or weights in a neural net.”
A notable trend identified by Breez is the rising proportion of requests initiated directly by AI coding agents, which develop apps and seek payment integration on behalf of companies. The company explained that these agents prefer bitcoin due to its permissionless nature, enabling global app deployment without the barriers of traditional finance, such as opening a bank account or undergoing compliance checks.
Breez is a technology firm specializing in SDKs that allow developers to add bitcoin payments to their applications, with a focus on fast integration and user-friendly solutions.
Mini dictionary: Claude Code: A specialized AI coding agent developed by Anthropic, designed to generate, audit, and integrate code into a wide range of applications. Its widespread adoption since 2025 has enabled automation of complex software development tasks, including the integration of cryptocurrency payment systems.
Potential regulatory scrutinyAlthough this shift in the software development landscape has increased the accessibility of bitcoin payments, regulatory authorities have long voiced concerns regarding the lack of identity verification in permissionless systems. Financial regulators continue to emphasize the importance of customer verification in traditional payment systems, an area where bitcoin payment platforms operate differently.
Breez addressed the technical challenge of handling increased volume by highlighting its newest SDK, which leverages Spark, a scaling protocol aimed at facilitating higher transaction throughput on the Bitcoin network. The company reported that this implementation accommodated the recent influx of integration requests smoothly.

Broader industry implicationsBreez characterized this transition as an evolution of investor Marc Andreessen’s 2011 thesis that software would come to dominate traditional industries. According to the company, AI-driven software agents are now at the forefront, using bitcoin as a foundational infrastructure element comparable to electric sockets or subsea cables. This development could signal a new phase for digital payment adoption across multiple industries.

OpenAI’s recent release of hundreds of machine-generated mathematical results has prompted a senior blockchain researcher to urge the industry toward a cautious defensive posture.
On October 7, 2026, Justin Drake, a researcher associated with the Ethereum Foundation whose work also addresses Bitcoin security assumptions, publicly called on holders and institutions to begin planning what he termed “bunker mode.”
The trigger was OpenAI’s October 6 publication of a large batch of findings produced by an internal frontier model.
Reporting on the release described roughly 722 manuscripts spanning about 372 families of results, covering areas such as number theory, geometry, combinatorics, and theoretical computer science.
OpenAI indicated that the model had been evaluated on thousands of problems, that many proofs were accompanied by machine-checkable formalizations, and that the average result consumed compute comparable to a few hours of advanced reasoning time.
Earlier related work had included challenges to long-standing conjectures and rapid progress on difficult open problems.
Drake interpreted the pace as evidence that mathematical capabilities are advancing faster than many cryptographic timelines assumed.
In a public post, he recommended a controlled migration of assets toward fresh addresses whose public keys remain concealed behind a hash until they are used.
Large and sophisticated holders, he suggested, should move the bulk of funds to addresses that have never signed a transaction.
After any spend, remaining balances should be shifted again to a new unused address, potentially derived from the same seed.
He stressed that the step does not require new wallets or novel cryptography and should be carried out without haste or panic, because a rushed transfer could itself cause losses.
Today I call upon the blockchain industry to calmly begin planning for "bunker mode". My personal recommendation is to set in motion a controlled mass migration of assets to fresh addresses, i.e. addresses whose pubkeys remain hidden behind a hash.
Holders, starting with large…
— Justin Drake (@drakefjustin) October 7, 2026
Drake argued it is now reasonable to prepare for the possibility that the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA)—the scheme securing most Bitcoin and Ethereum transactions—could be broken before practical quantum computers arrive.
In his worst-case framing, fast private key recovery from an exposed public key, on the order of a week using available hardware such as a large GPU cluster, might occur in months rather than years.
He noted that elliptic curves contain algebraic structure that could, in principle, admit unexpected classical attacks, unlike hash functions designed to minimize such structure.
OpenAI’s materials did not claim any attack on ECDSA or RSA; the short timeline remains Drake’s conjecture, not a demonstrated break.
He pointed to trackers of already-exposed Bitcoin public keys and singled out major custodians as candidates to harden cold storage first.
Smaller wallets, he added, retain partial cover from the large set of early exposed addresses.
Critical signers such as oracles could rotate keys or combine signatures with hash-based schemes.
Longer term, he favored moving toward cryptography that relies on hashes rather than structured mathematical assumptions.
The episode fits a wider unease among security professionals.
As AI systems are adopted across research, operations, and infrastructure, assumptions about how long current digital platforms and financial services will remain safe are being reexamined ahead of 2027 and beyond.
Exposed keys, long-lived signatures, and reliance on algebraic hardness are receiving fresh scrutiny even where no immediate exploit has been shown. Drake’s call is therefore best read as a precautionary operational suggestion amid accelerating mathematical automation, not as confirmation that existing wallets have already been compromised.

TL;DR: PowerCompute mined 8.1 BTC in September, up 37% from a year earlier. Its month-end Bitcoin holdings fell to 63.7 BTC after the company used 267.4 BTC to help retire a $22.45 million Bitcoin-backed credit facility, leaving most of its secured debt eliminated.
PowerCompute’s latest mining update is a useful reminder that a corporate Bitcoin treasury can serve more than one purpose.
The Nasdaq-listed miner produced 8.1 BTC in September, a 37% increase from the 5.9 BTC it mined in the same month last year and slightly above August production.
At the same time, its Bitcoin holdings fell sharply.
PowerCompute ended September with 63.7 BTC, down from 323.02 BTC at the end of August.
The reason was debt.
The company used 267.4 BTC to help settle principal and accrued interest on a Bitcoin-backed credit facility with Arch, eliminating approximately $22.45 million of obligations and releasing the collateral attached to the loan.
That reduced secured debt from roughly $23.7 million to $1.25 million.
The remaining borrowing is not secured by Bitcoin.
For public miners, that trade-off is significant.
Bitcoin holdings are often presented as a measure of financial strength, particularly when a company’s market value is compared with the BTC sitting on its balance sheet.
But debt changes the picture.
A large treasury that is pledged against borrowings is not as flexible as unencumbered Bitcoin, and leverage can become particularly painful when BTC prices or mining economics turn against the company.
PowerCompute chose to shrink the treasury substantially in exchange for removing most of that leverage.
Management has framed the decision as using Bitcoin to retire debt rather than carrying the financing cost.
The operational side of the update was more positive.
September production of 8.1 BTC was also up from 7.9 BTC in August.
The company operates 26 megawatts of interconnected power infrastructure across facilities in Oklahoma and Mississippi, while also exploring a broader shift toward high-performance computing and AI-related infrastructure.
PowerCompute also generated about $89,000 from selling electricity back to the grid during periods when seasonal heat made curtailment more attractive than mining.
That illustrates another part of modern mining economics.
A miner with access to flexible power is not always maximizing revenue by running machines continuously. At certain times, the electricity itself can be worth more than the Bitcoin the same power would produce.
PowerCompute said energy sales totaled roughly $312,000 across the three months ended September.
The company’s strategy therefore now sits across several moving pieces: Bitcoin production, power-market economics, debt reduction and potential data-center expansion.
None of them is as eye-catching as simply announcing another BTC purchase.
But the September figures show why balance-sheet quality matters.
PowerCompute owns far less Bitcoin than it did a month earlier.
It also owns that Bitcoin with dramatically less secured debt hanging over it.
EDX Markets, the institution-only digital asset venue backed by Wall Street trading and venture capital firms, will list Verified Bitcoin (vBTC) for institutional spot trading, the company announced on October 8. Under the partnership with VerifiedX, EDX will also join the VerifiedX network as a validator, extending its role from trading venue into the infrastructure that secures the token. The move deepens Wall Street’s push into tokenized Bitcoin, letting institutions put BTC to work across trading, lending, and decentralized finance without surrendering the underlying asset.
A 1:1-Backed, Programmable Bitcoin vBTC is a tokenized form of Bitcoin built on VerifiedX‘s layer-2 protocol. Each token is collateralized one-to-one by native BTC, with Taproot addresses embedded in every token and a direct redemption path back to Bitcoin. VerifiedX positions vBTC as self-custodial and non-synthetic, targeting institutional workflows such as price discovery, cross-market arbitrage, treasury and balance-sheet mobility, and borrowing and lending. Rather than creating economic exposure to Bitcoin without a direct path to the underlying asset, vBTC is built around continuous ownership, utilization and redemption. A canonical EVM representation, vBTC.b, extends the same redemption path to supported Ethereum-compatible environments.
EDX Takes a Validator Role Rather than simply listing a new asset, EDX Markets will validate transactions and participate in governance on the VerifiedX network. The arrangement is designed to let institutions keep direct control over the threshold-signing environment securing their Bitcoin instead of relying on a public signing pool, while EDX’s central clearinghouse reduces bilateral counterparty exposure for institutional participants. “Institutional adoption of digital assets increasingly depends on giving sophisticated market participants greater flexibility in how they trade, move and deploy capital,” said David Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer of EDX Markets.
What Changes for Institutions “Bitcoin does not need another financial abstraction. It needs infrastructure that allows the asset itself to do more,” said Jay Pollak, Head of Strategy at the VerifiedX Foundation. For allocators, the listing bridges EDX’s institutional market structure with programmable Bitcoin infrastructure, preserving native ownership and a direct redemption path. EDX said additional details on vBTC availability will be announced in the coming weeks, and that its products remain available only to institutions in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions.

Thailand has issued new regulatory rules for crypto ETFs, with the first phase only allowing such ETFs to invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has released 11 regulatory rules concerning cryptocurrency ETFs, which will take effect on October 16. The first phase restricts ETF investments to Bitcoin and Ethereum, requiring a passive investment strategy. The annual average net exposure to a single crypto asset must not fall below 80% of the fund’s net assets, with assets held by regulated digital asset custodians. Additionally, the new rules permit mutual funds and private funds to invest in local Thai crypto ETFs, but bar securities firms from providing margin financing for such purchases. In the first phase, securities firms are prohibited from offering overseas crypto ETF investment services to clients other than institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

Bernstein projects TSMC's third-quarter revenue will reach 1.49 trillion New Taiwan Dollars, 3% higher than the market consensus.
Bernstein noted that sustained growth in artificial intelligence (AI) demand and resilient demand for high-end smartphones may continue to drive revenue growth for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM.N, TSMC). Calculated from monthly revenue figures, TSMC’s third-quarter revenue hit NT$1.49 trillion, 3% above the market consensus forecast. Bernstein projects TSMC’s U.S. dollar-denominated revenue will rise 41% this year. TSMC is poised to release its full third-quarter earnings report shortly, with investors closely monitoring its 2nm process capacity expansion, potential further expansion in the U.S., and its outlook for 2027. Bernstein’s prior forecast of 30% annual revenue growth for TSMC in 2027 and 2028 has upside potential.

ByteDance's TRAE merges two AI tools, TraeWork to cease services on October 23.
Beating AI News – ByteDance has announced the official merger of its AI office tool TraeWork and programming tool TraeCode into a new product named TRAE. The two previously separate clients will be unified under a single entry, offering two modes: Agent and IDE. The Agent mode enables AI to automatically advance tasks, while the IDE mode retains full code editing and debugging capabilities. The new Agent mode supports managing multiple projects simultaneously, scheduling multiple AI agents to work in parallel, and connecting to SSH remote development environments. Users can have AI handle end-to-end workflows from requirement analysis to page design, coding, testing and delivery, and switch to the IDE mode at any time for manual code modifications. Existing features including scheduled tasks, template libraries and office capabilities are also integrated, with cross-device support for desktop, web and mobile. ByteDance stated that chat history, account information, local data, login status and business points will be automatically migrated after the upgrade. TraeWork users need to manually initiate the upgrade in the client, while TraeCode users will receive automatic updates. The official documentation clarifies that TraeWork will be discontinued on October 23, and users who fail to upgrade by then will no longer be able to access it. However, some developers have expressed dissatisfaction with the new version. Users in TRAE’s official community have reported that the software now defaults to the Agent workspace; the previously commonly used IDE mode requires manual switching, and there is currently no option to adjust the default startup mode.

Doubao adds water, electricity, and gas utility bill payment services; is the prototype of a super app taking shape?
News flash from Dong察 Beating AI: Doubao App has added a new "Life Payments" feature. When users type "pay electricity bill" or "pay water bill" in the chat box, Doubao will pop up a service card; clicking it leads to the page for settling water, electricity, and gas bills, eliminating the need to look for payment entry points in other apps. However, the feature is not available in all regions yet. Even if the service is accessible in their city, users still need to link their account number, confirm, and complete the payment – it does not support automatic deduction with just a single command. A source close to Doubao told The Paper that the app is gradually expanding service capabilities for daily affairs, including travel booking and life payments. Previously, Doubao had already integrated services such as flight tickets, train tickets, and ride-hailing.

Cardano Founder Refutes Vitalik: Lattice-Based Cryptography Should Not Be Abandoned Over AI Concerns
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has published a post refuting Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s views on post-quantum cryptography shared two days ago. Buterin argued that AI-driven advances in mathematical research could weaken the concrete security of lattice-based cryptography (including ML-DSA and FHE), adding that Ethereum’s lean roadmap is shifting to pure hash signatures as a result. He also recommended roughly doubling the key length for lattice-based schemes, and advised privacy protocols to place encrypted notes off-chain as much as possible. Hoskinson countered that this judgment lacks verifiable attacks and cost models. He noted that number field sieve methods cannot be simply analogized to lattice problems; the parameters of ML-KEM and ML-DSA have already accounted for decades of sieve and enumeration attacks, and quantum attacks on ideal lattices have not yet affected current modular lattice schemes. On the contrary, hashes like Ethereum’s Poseidon have stronger algebraic structures. Hoskinson further argued that abandoning the already deployed hybrid ML-KEM before any attacks emerge would instead keep traffic on classical cryptography longer, exacerbating the "steal now, decrypt later" risk.

More than two years after US spot Bitcoin ETFs won regulatory approval, getting one through a financial advisor still depends heavily on where you bank.
A May 2026 analysis from crypto asset manager Bitwise finds that five major US wealth platforms restrict access to Bitcoin exchange-traded products (ETPs). Another 18 allow only unsolicited trades.
Three tiers of access Bitwise sorted US wealth platforms into three buckets based on how they treat Bitcoin ETPs: Restricted, Unsolicited Only, and Solicited.
On a Solicited platform, advisors can actively recommend Bitcoin ETPs to clients. They can bring the idea up in a portfolio review, discuss allocation, and treat it like any other approved product.
According to Bitwise, firms in this group include Morgan Stanley, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Vanguard.
On an Unsolicited Only platform, advisors cannot pitch the product. They will execute a Bitcoin ETP trade only when the client asks for it. The burden of initiative sits entirely with the investor.
Bitwise places JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and UBS in this camp. In total, 18 platforms fall into the Unsolicited Only category.
Then there are the Restricted platforms. These five firms actively limit Bitcoin ETP investment opportunities for clients. Bitwise names HSBC, T. Rowe Price, and American Express among them.
A slow, uneven rollout since 2024 The backdrop here is the January 2024 approval of US spot Bitcoin ETFs. That decision gave traditional investors a regulated, brokerage-friendly way to hold Bitcoin exposure without managing wallets or private keys.
Bitwise’s findings show how unevenly that process has played out. Some firms have moved all the way to letting advisors make recommendations. Others have settled into a middle ground, while a handful remain closed off.
What this means for investors and the industry If an advisor cannot raise Bitcoin ETPs, a large share of clients may simply never consider them. Access technically exists, but distribution does not.
According to the research, the move toward broader solicited access could catalyze greater adoption and heightens the potential for significant capital inflows into Bitcoin ETPs.
The research also notes that full mainstream integration is contingent on further regulatory clarity and continued due diligence at wealth platforms. The prize, as the analysis frames it, is trillions of dollars in client assets currently under management that remain largely out of reach.
For investors, the practical takeaway is straightforward. If you want Bitcoin ETP exposure through an advisor, your platform’s policy shapes the conversation you can have. At a Solicited firm, your advisor can walk you through it. At an Unsolicited Only firm, you will need to request it yourself. At a Restricted firm, you may need to look elsewhere entirely.
For now, Bitwise’s map shows a wealth management industry that has accepted Bitcoin ETPs in principle. In practice, how freely clients can reach them still depends on which firm holds their account.

Meanwhile’s total funding to date exceeds $180 million.
MONACO, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crypto news is heating up around AlphaPepe as the countdown to its fifth CEX partnership reveal enters its final days. Four exchange partnerships have already been announced, and online communities are increasingly asking whether Binance or another Tier 1 venue could be the next name revealed.
That speculation is landing while the presale has crossed $2.92 million raised and 12,400 holders, giving the exchange story a much larger retail audience than it had earlier in the campaign. Bitcoin, meanwhile, has slipped below $83,000 as surging oil prices, higher Treasury yields and fresh crypto-security fears hit risk appetite.
AlphaPepe CEX Countdown Puts Binance Rumors in Focus
AlphaPepe says its fifth CEX partnership will be revealed in only a few days. That gives buyers a clear near-term catalyst after four exchange partnerships have already been announced.
The hidden identity is what is creating the buzz. Online communities have been discussing whether Binance or another Tier 1 exchange could be next, especially as AlphaPepe moves closer to its first public-market cycle.
The stronger part of the story is that exchange expansion is already happening before the chart exists. AlphaPepe is not waiting until after launch to start building distribution. The fifth CEX reveal is arriving while retail can still enter through the presale.
Why the Fifth CEX Reveal Matters More Now
The same exchange headline carries more weight when the crowd behind the token is already growing. AlphaPepe has crossed 12,400 holders and more than $2.92 million raised, so the next CEX announcement will land in front of an established presale community.
That gives the coming reveal a different feel from an early-stage rumor with no traction behind it. Four CEX relationships are already public, while the fifth name remains the missing piece retail is trying to guess.
If the reveal turns out to involve a major exchange, the announcement would arrive before $ALPE enters open-market price discovery. That is the timing advantage buyers are watching.
AlphaSwap Adds Substance Behind the Listing Hype
The exchange speculation is also backed by a product story. AlphaSwap Early Access is already live, and Auto-Trade registration is open before $ALPE reaches exchanges.
AlphaPepe is being built by an ex-Shibarium developer, giving the project a stronger technical background than many meme-led presales. That matters because a larger exchange footprint becomes more valuable when there is an ecosystem behind the token rather than listing hype alone.
With the fifth CEX reveal only days away, AlphaPepe now combines a near-term listing catalyst with a live AI DEX product while the token is still in presale.
Bitcoin Price Prediction Eyes $200,000 After Fresh Selloff
Bitcoin has been hit by a sharp risk-off move, falling below $83,000 as oil prices surged above $100 per barrel and Treasury yields climbed. Rising energy costs have revived inflation fears, which matters for crypto because higher inflation can keep interest rates elevated and drain demand from risk assets.
Another layer of anxiety arrived from the security side. Europol warned that crypto wallets are a primary area of exposure to future quantum attacks, while Ethereum researchers and Vitalik Buterin have also urged the industry to take AI-accelerated threats to cryptography seriously. Those warnings were not the main cause of Bitcoin’s drop, but they added a fresh fear narrative while the market was already under pressure.
For bulls, the selloff does not kill the larger-cycle thesis. A $200,000 Bitcoin target would require a powerful recovery, renewed liquidity and another institutional accumulation wave, but sharp shakeouts have historically been part of major crypto cycles.
AlphaPepe Turns the CEX Reveal Into the Immediate Catalyst
Bitcoin traders are debating whether the latest drop is another reset before a larger move. AlphaPepe buyers have a much nearer event to watch: the fifth CEX partnership reveal is only days away.
Four exchange partnerships are already announced, while Binance and Tier 1 speculation is spreading across online communities. Add 12,400+ holders, a live AlphaSwap Early Access product and an ex-Shibarium developer, and the next listing update has more behind it than a rumor alone.
The presale is still open at $0.03269 before $ALPE enters public price discovery. That leaves retail positioned ahead of the reveal rather than reacting after the next exchange name hits the market.

Trading giant @RobinhoodApp has purchased $25 million worth of Bitcoin for its own corporate balance sheet, marking the first time the Nasdaq-listed brokerage has put company capital directly into the asset it has long offered to retail customers. The move was flagged by on-chain analytics platform @arkham and later confirmed by Robinhood executives.
A Signal, Not a Treasury Program The disclosure came from Johann Kerbrat, Robinhood's Senior Vice President and General Manager of Crypto and International, speaking at the Digital Asset Summit Asia on October 7, 2026.
Deep in Crypto, but Only Now Holding Bitcoin The purchase comes at a time when @RobinhoodApp has been making aggressive moves across the crypto landscape under CEO @vladtenev.
Despite this deep crypto integration, this $25 million purchase represents the very first time Robinhood has held $BTC on its own books.

Thailand has issued new regulatory rules for crypto ETFs, with the first phase only allowing such ETFs to invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has released 11 regulatory rules concerning cryptocurrency ETFs, which will take effect on October 16. The first phase restricts ETF investments to Bitcoin and Ethereum, requiring a passive investment strategy. The annual average net exposure to a single crypto asset must not fall below 80% of the fund’s net assets, with assets held by regulated digital asset custodians. Additionally, the new rules permit mutual funds and private funds to invest in local Thai crypto ETFs, but bar securities firms from providing margin financing for such purchases. In the first phase, securities firms are prohibited from offering overseas crypto ETF investment services to clients other than institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

Bernstein projects TSMC's third-quarter revenue will reach 1.49 trillion New Taiwan Dollars, 3% higher than the market consensus.
Bernstein noted that sustained growth in artificial intelligence (AI) demand and resilient demand for high-end smartphones may continue to drive revenue growth for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM.N, TSMC). Calculated from monthly revenue figures, TSMC’s third-quarter revenue hit NT$1.49 trillion, 3% above the market consensus forecast. Bernstein projects TSMC’s U.S. dollar-denominated revenue will rise 41% this year. TSMC is poised to release its full third-quarter earnings report shortly, with investors closely monitoring its 2nm process capacity expansion, potential further expansion in the U.S., and its outlook for 2027. Bernstein’s prior forecast of 30% annual revenue growth for TSMC in 2027 and 2028 has upside potential.

ByteDance's TRAE merges two AI tools, TraeWork to cease services on October 23.
Beating AI News – ByteDance has announced the official merger of its AI office tool TraeWork and programming tool TraeCode into a new product named TRAE. The two previously separate clients will be unified under a single entry, offering two modes: Agent and IDE. The Agent mode enables AI to automatically advance tasks, while the IDE mode retains full code editing and debugging capabilities. The new Agent mode supports managing multiple projects simultaneously, scheduling multiple AI agents to work in parallel, and connecting to SSH remote development environments. Users can have AI handle end-to-end workflows from requirement analysis to page design, coding, testing and delivery, and switch to the IDE mode at any time for manual code modifications. Existing features including scheduled tasks, template libraries and office capabilities are also integrated, with cross-device support for desktop, web and mobile. ByteDance stated that chat history, account information, local data, login status and business points will be automatically migrated after the upgrade. TraeWork users need to manually initiate the upgrade in the client, while TraeCode users will receive automatic updates. The official documentation clarifies that TraeWork will be discontinued on October 23, and users who fail to upgrade by then will no longer be able to access it. However, some developers have expressed dissatisfaction with the new version. Users in TRAE’s official community have reported that the software now defaults to the Agent workspace; the previously commonly used IDE mode requires manual switching, and there is currently no option to adjust the default startup mode.

Doubao adds water, electricity, and gas utility bill payment services; is the prototype of a super app taking shape?
News flash from Dong察 Beating AI: Doubao App has added a new "Life Payments" feature. When users type "pay electricity bill" or "pay water bill" in the chat box, Doubao will pop up a service card; clicking it leads to the page for settling water, electricity, and gas bills, eliminating the need to look for payment entry points in other apps. However, the feature is not available in all regions yet. Even if the service is accessible in their city, users still need to link their account number, confirm, and complete the payment – it does not support automatic deduction with just a single command. A source close to Doubao told The Paper that the app is gradually expanding service capabilities for daily affairs, including travel booking and life payments. Previously, Doubao had already integrated services such as flight tickets, train tickets, and ride-hailing.

Cardano Founder Refutes Vitalik: Lattice-Based Cryptography Should Not Be Abandoned Over AI Concerns
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has published a post refuting Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s views on post-quantum cryptography shared two days ago. Buterin argued that AI-driven advances in mathematical research could weaken the concrete security of lattice-based cryptography (including ML-DSA and FHE), adding that Ethereum’s lean roadmap is shifting to pure hash signatures as a result. He also recommended roughly doubling the key length for lattice-based schemes, and advised privacy protocols to place encrypted notes off-chain as much as possible. Hoskinson countered that this judgment lacks verifiable attacks and cost models. He noted that number field sieve methods cannot be simply analogized to lattice problems; the parameters of ML-KEM and ML-DSA have already accounted for decades of sieve and enumeration attacks, and quantum attacks on ideal lattices have not yet affected current modular lattice schemes. On the contrary, hashes like Ethereum’s Poseidon have stronger algebraic structures. Hoskinson further argued that abandoning the already deployed hybrid ML-KEM before any attacks emerge would instead keep traffic on classical cryptography longer, exacerbating the "steal now, decrypt later" risk.
Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday finalized rules allowing crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to list on Thailand’s main stock exchange, limited initially to Bitcoin and Ether.
The regulator said the rules will take effect on Oct. 16, 2026. Crypto ETFs must be listed for trading exclusively on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Products linked to foreign crypto ETFs, such as depositary receipts, will not be permitted initially, while Thai brokers will remain barred from facilitating investments in overseas crypto ETFs for retail investors outside institutions and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.
“We have previously seen examples in the United States where the launch of the Spot Bitcoin ETF and Spot Ethereum ETF created new avenues for institutional and retail investors to easily access digital assets,” Attakrit Chimphlapibul, co-founder of Bitkub Group, told Money and Banking on Thursday.
The framework opens a new route for Thai investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin and Ether through the stock market. The SEC also amended its rules to allow mutual funds and private funds to invest in Thai-established crypto ETFs, whereas previously they could invest only in foreign crypto ETFs.
The framework also prohibits brokers from providing margin loans to purchase crypto ETFs and requires fund assets to be held with SEC-regulated digital asset custodians. Investors must receive information about the products and confirm that they understand the risks before trading.
Crypto ETFs must be managed as a passive investment vehicle seeking to track the price of the crypto asset in which it invests. It must maintain net exposure to a single cryptocurrency averaging at least 80% of net asset value over each accounting year.
The SEC consulted on the proposed principles in April and May and on draft regulations in August and September. Most respondents supported the proposals, the regulator said.

A post on X made a short and alarming claim: Fidelity sold $197.09 million worth of Bitcoin.
Nothing in the available record confirms that a sale happened. Research into the claim points to a familiar culprit. On-chain transfers and ETF flow data were read as something they are not.
That distinction matters because Fidelity is not just another wallet on the blockchain. Through Fidelity Digital Assets, the firm provides institutional custody, and it also operates the Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, better known by its ticker FBTC.
What the on-chain data actually shows The biggest movement tied to this episode came on September 29, 2026. On-chain trackers flagged 12 transfers totaling 3,568 BTC, worth approximately $297 million, leaving wallets linked to Strategy, Michael Saylor’s company.
Arkham Intelligence later clarified that those transfers were internal operations within Fidelity Custody, not sales. They were standard reallocations, consistent with Fidelity managing client deposits.
Strategy’s own activity around that time also undercuts the sell-off story. The company bought 1,665 BTC, worth approximately $142.7 million, between September 21 and September 27, 2026.
That purchase lifted Strategy’s total holdings to 847,666 BTC at an average cost of $75,437 per coin.

Where the $197 million figure may come from The ETF side of the ledger tells a separate story. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $197.4 million in net inflows for the week ended July 11, 2026.
FBTC was among the funds that showed offsetting outflows during that same period. So the sector as a whole took in money, while some individual funds, including Fidelity’s, saw cash leave.
The $197.09 million figure in the X post and the $197.4 million inflow total are close neighbors. Whatever the origin of the claim, those two numbers describe very different things. One is money coming into ETFs, not coins leaving Fidelity’s balance sheet.
Then came early October 2026. FBTC posted $50.7 million in net outflows amid broader selling across Bitcoin ETFs.
Those outflows are attributed to investor redemptions. When ETF shareholders cash out, the fund shrinks because its clients want their money back, not because the fund manager decided to bail.
The research is direct on the core question: Fidelity has not executed a corporate-level sale of $197 million in Bitcoin.
Why custody keeps getting mistaken for selling Custodians hold assets on behalf of other people. Fidelity Digital Assets does this for institutional clients, which means large amounts of Bitcoin sit in wallets tied to Fidelity without belonging to Fidelity itself.
Public blockchains make every transfer visible. They do not, however, explain why a transfer happened or who asked for it.
In this case, the clarification from Arkham arrived after trackers had already flagged the Strategy-linked transfers. That gap between the raw data and the explanation is where rumors tend to take root.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs add another layer of confusion. Flow figures show how much money entered or left a fund, but those numbers reflect the choices of thousands of shareholders rather than a single decision made at headquarters.
What this means for investors The immediate takeaway is simple. There is no verified evidence that Fidelity, as a company, sold $197 million in Bitcoin.
What did happen is less dramatic. Strategy-linked coins were reshuffled inside Fidelity’s custody system, Strategy kept buying, and FBTC saw a mix of inflows and outflows driven by its own investors.
For anyone tracking institutional behavior, the more useful signal is the $50.7 million in FBTC outflows in early October. Those numbers reflect actual investor decisions amid broader ETF selling, which says something about how some holders were positioning at the time.
Strategy, sitting on 847,666 BTC, will keep drawing scrutiny every time its coins move through a custodian. A practical habit for traders: wait for attribution from an analytics firm such as Arkham, or from the companies involved, before reading a large transfer as a trade.

Thailand now has a finished rulebook for crypto exchange-traded funds. On October 8, 2026, the country’s Securities and Exchange Commission issued 11 notifications that set out how ETFs built on digital assets will work.
The framework takes effect on October 16, 2026.
The opening lineup is short. Only Bitcoin and Ethereum qualify as underlying assets in this first phase, and the funds can trade only on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).
No crypto ETF has actually launched yet. Asset managers are still finishing their setups and seeking the approvals they need from the SEC before anything reaches a trading screen.
What the rules actually require Every fund has to be passive and track a single asset. A Bitcoin ETF follows Bitcoin, and an Ethereum ETF follows Ethereum.
Each fund must keep an average net exposure of at least 80% of its net asset value to its tracked crypto over each accounting year.

The underlying crypto must sit with onshore digital asset custodians that the SEC supervises.
The funds trade only on the SET.
Investors cannot use margin lending to buy them.
The SEC also put investor protections around the products. These include risk education, suitability assessments, and a confirmation process meant to make sure buyers understand what they are getting into.
How Thailand got here Earlier in 2026, the SEC held consultations on the principles and structure for these products, collecting input before turning the ideas into binding notifications.
Previous measures included limited institutional exposure to foreign crypto products, which meant exposure ran through overseas vehicles and was open to a restricted group of investors.
The new rules point in a different direction. Instead of relying on foreign wrappers, Thailand is building a domestic product that trades on its own exchange, uses its own supervised custodians, and falls under its own investor-protection regime.
What this means for investors, issuers, and custodians For investors, the main change is access through a regulated, familiar channel. Owning an ETF on the SET means no self-managed wallets, no seed phrases, and no need to judge whether an offshore exchange is trustworthy.
For asset managers, with every fund required to be passive, single-asset, and maintaining at least 80% exposure to its underlying crypto, issuers may end up competing on execution, costs, and how quickly they clear the approval process.
For custodians, the onshore requirement is a clear business opportunity. Every coin held by a Thai crypto ETF has to sit with an SEC-supervised local custodian, so demand for that service follows directly from any fund inflows.
Several things are worth watching from here. The first is which asset managers secure approval and how fast their products reach the SET after the October 16, 2026 effective date.
The second is whether the list of eligible assets grows. The SEC describes Bitcoin and Ethereum as the assets allowed in the initial phase, which leaves room for a wider lineup later, though the regulator has not committed to any expansion.
The third is how the investor-protection process works in practice. Risk education, suitability assessments, and confirmation steps are required under the framework.

Bitcoin’s market dominance has surged to 60.05%, registering its highest level in a month as alternative cryptocurrencies faced renewed selling pressure. This uptick in dominance indicates that investors are increasingly gravitating toward Bitcoin amid heightened volatility across the broader crypto landscape.
Altcoins hit hard amid Bitcoin’s dominance surgeOver the past month, Bitcoin dominance experienced significant turbulence. After hovering above the 60% mark earlier, the metric dipped to 59% before rebounding with more than a 1% gain from its recent low. This latest move highlights Bitcoin’s relative strength compared to the broader market, pushing other digital assets further into decline.
The shift comes after a sharp correction in the digital asset market on Thursday, October 8, which saw altcoins recording substantial losses. Ethereum declined by 6% to approximately $2,413, while XRP dropped 7.4% to $1.33. Bitcoin itself is trading just below $80,580, reflecting a 3.3% decrease over the past 24 hours.
Liquidations ramped up during this period, totaling almost $900 million and impacting more than 150,000 traders. This widespread clearing of positions marked one of the largest single-day shakeouts in recent weeks.
Factors driving the latest crypto selloffAccording to market analysts, the recent downturn stems from a combination of macroeconomic pressures, waning institutional participation, and a wave of cascading liquidations. No single catalyst can be pinpointed, but several developments contributed to the rapid market shift.
A sharp rise in oil prices triggered by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East has sent additional shockwaves through financial markets. Brent crude surged above $105 per barrel on Thursday as investors reacted to increasing threats of military action by the US against Iran alongside concerns over energy supply disruptions.
These global events are seen as amplifying risk aversion across asset classes, with cryptocurrencies particularly vulnerable due to their high volatility and speculative nature.
Market volatility and the role of trading toolsIn periods marked by sudden price swings and technical breakdowns, traders are focusing on real-time information and rapid response strategies to manage risk. As a single Federal Reserve decision or an unexpected altcoin listing can dramatically shift the landscape within moments, efficiently accessing critical data has become crucial. Many investors now turn to privacy-first solutions such as CryptoAppsy, allowing them to monitor charts, set price alerts, track portfolios, and receive coin-specific news and macroeconomic data—all without creating an account. This streamlines the trading process and minimizes opportunity loss during volatile sessions.
Bitcoin dominance has returned to above 60% after dipping below this threshold earlier in the month, signaling a shift in capital flows back toward the leading cryptocurrency as the altcoin market contends with steep losses and liquidations surpassing $900 million in a single day.
PANews reported on October 9 that, according to SoSoValue data, crypto market sectors fell across the board, with 24-hour declines generally ranging from about 2% to 6%. The AI sector dropped 5.09%, with Bittensor (TAO), Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL), and Venice Token (VVV) falling 7.27%, 8.34%, and 10.24% respectively, while SoSoValue (SOSO) bucked the trend with a 13.11% gain.
In other sectors, the Layer 2 sector fell 1.47% over 24 hours, but Starknet (STRK) rose 21.98%; the PayFi sector dropped 3.90%, with Zcash (ZEC) down 9.71%; the DeFi sector fell 3.97%, with Uniswap (UNI) down 7.94%; the CeFi sector dropped 4.23%, with OKB down 5.93%; the Meme sector fell 4.58%, with Binance Life (币安人生) relatively resilient, surging 7.15% intraday; and the Layer 1 sector dropped 4.96%, with NEAR Protocol (NEAR) down 12.46%.
Crypto sector indices reflecting historical sector performance showed that the ssiAI, ssiMeme, and ssiNFT indices fell 7.15%, 5.41%, and 4.89% respectively.

Scott Melker in a podcast with Nick Ducoff, Head of Institutional Growth, Solana Foundation highlighted that crypto industry is entering a tokenization super cycle, driven by stablecoin payments, institutional adoption and tokenized securities.
Despite its prolonged bear market, Ducoff remains bullish on Solana amidst continued institutional development and more than $1 billion in assets under management for a U.S. Solana ETF.
Melker argued that Bitcoin’s decline below $82,800 is a potential healthy retest and does not necessarily invalidate its emerging bullish structure.
The 50-week moving average of $77,000 represents another possible downside target that he would not consider particularly concerning.
Melker believes Bitcoin’s recent higher high and recovery above major moving averages suggest the broader bearish trend may be ending.

Bitcoin, haftaya 87.000 dolar seviyesinde yeniden durdurularak başladı. Fiyat bir süre 85.600 doların üzerinde tutundu ancak ardından 30 dakikadan kısa sürede yaklaşık 2.000 dolar geriledi. Sert hareket, kripto piyasasında tasfiyeleri de hızla artırdı.
Son 24 saatte tasfiye edilen pozisyonların toplam değeri 550 milyon doları aştı. Bunun yaklaşık 430 milyon doları yalnızca son dört saat içinde gerçekleşti ve tasfiyelerin neredeyse tamamını long pozisyonlar oluşturdu.
Peki satışın arkasında ne vardı? Piyasada özellikle iki ihtimal öne çıktı.
Bitcoin, 87.000 doları yeniden aşamayınca 85.600 doların üzerinde bir süre yatay kaldı. Ardından satış baskısı hızlandı ve fiyat yarım saatten kısa sürede yaklaşık 2.000 dolar geriledi.
Bu hareket kaldıraçlı işlemlerde zincirleme tasfiyeleri tetikledi. CoinGlass verilerine göre son 24 saatte 100.000’den fazla traderın pozisyonu kapandı.
En büyük tekil tasfiye işlemi Binance’te gerçekleşti. 26 milyon dolar değerindeki işlem ETH/USDC paritesinde açılan bir pozisyona aitti.
Bitcoin’deki düşüş altcoinlere de yayıldı. Ethereum yaklaşık %4 değer kaybederek 2.600 doların altına indi. XRP, HYPE, DOGE ve ADA ise son 24 saatte %6’ya varan kayıplar yaşadı.
ABD Hükümeti Bitcoin Satmış Olabilir mi? Düşüşün ardından dikkatler ABD hükümetinin cüzdan hareketlerine çevrildi. Lookonchain, ABD hükümetinin elindeki kripto varlıkların bir bölümünü taşıdığını bildirdi.
Verilere göre toplam 834 BTC, yaklaşık 71,56 milyon dolar değerle Coinbase Prime’a gönderildi. Bunun yanında 40.285 BNB de transfer edildi.
Coinbase Prime’a yapılan BTC transferi, piyasada satış ihtimalini gündeme getirdi. Ancak bu hareket tek başına ABD hükümetinin Bitcoin sattığını kanıtlamıyor.
Dolayısıyla söz konusu transferi doğrudan Bitcoin’deki düşüşün nedeni olarak göstermek için yeterli veri bulunmuyor. Kaynak da bu gelişmeyi yalnızca olası nedenlerden biri olarak ele alıyor.
Bitcoin has dropped below $84,000.
Just before the market dropped, 4 newly created wallets deposited 1M $USDC into #Hyperliquid and opened 40x shorts on 148.49 $BTC ($12.5M).
Düşüşten Önce 40x Short Açan Cüzdanlar Kim? Daha dikkat çekici ikinci gelişme ise yeni oluşturulan dört cüzdanla ilgili.
Lookonchain’in güncellemesine göre dört yeni cüzdan, düşüşten yalnızca birkaç dakika önce Hyperliquid’e toplam 1 milyon USDC yatırdı. Ardından yaklaşık 150 BTC, yani 12,5 milyon dolar değerindeki pozisyon üzerinde 40x short açtılar.
İşlemlerin zamanlaması dikkat çekiyor. Cüzdanların pozisyon açmasının hemen ardından Bitcoin sert biçimde geriledi.
Ancak bu veriler, söz konusu cüzdanların düşüşü önceden bildiğini ya da hareketin arkasında olduğunu kanıtlamıyor. Yalnızca açılan short pozisyonların zamanlamasını gösteriyor.
Bitcoin’de Tasfiye Baskısı Nereye Kadar Sürebilir? Bitcoin’deki yaklaşık 2.000 dolarlık düşüş, yüksek kaldıraç kullanımının piyasadaki etkisini bir kez daha gösterdi. Son dört saatteki 430 milyon dolarlık tasfiye, özellikle long pozisyonların ne kadar hızlı sıkışabileceğini ortaya koydu.
Ethereum tarafındaki yaklaşık %4’lük düşüş de tasfiyeleri büyüten unsurlardan biri oldu. Altcoinlerdeki kayıpların Bitcoin’den daha sert gerçekleşmesi, satış dalgasının yalnızca BTC ile sınırlı kalmadığını gösterdi.
Bu noktada piyasada iki ayrı ihtimal konuşuluyor: ABD hükümetine ait varlıkların Coinbase Prime’a taşınması ve düşüşten hemen önce açılan yüksek kaldıraçlı short pozisyonlar. Ancak mevcut veriler, bu gelişmelerden herhangi birinin tek başına satışın kesin nedeni olduğunu göstermiyor.

Bitcoin (BTC) fiyatı, yaklaşık bir aydır devam eden yükseliş trendinin ardından sert bir dönüş yaptı. 87.000-91.000 dolar aralığında oluşan yoğun satış duvarı, boğaların yükseliş çabasını durdururken BTC birkaç dakika içinde 84.000 doların altına geriledi. Düşüşün arkasında kaldıraçlı işlemler, ETF çıkışları, long tasfiyeleri ve ABD hükümetinin olası satışları öne çıktı.
Bitcoin Neden Dakikalar İçinde Düştü? Sert hareketin öncesinde Hyperliquid üzerinde dikkat çekici bir işlem gerçekleşti. Yeni oluşturulan dört cüzdan toplam 1 milyon USDC yatırdıktan sonra 148,49 BTC değerinde, yaklaşık 12,5 milyon dolarlık pozisyonu 40x kaldıraçla shortladı.
Söz konusu dört pozisyonun her biri yaklaşık 2,50 milyon veya 2,60 milyon dolar büyüklüğündeydi. İşlemlerin hemen ardından Bitcoin’de görülen sert düşüş, piyasa katılımcıları arasında olası içeriden bilgi kullanımı tartışmalarını gündeme getirdi. Ancak bu işlemlerin doğrudan düşüşü başlattığını kesin olarak kanıtlayan bir veri bulunmuyor.
Bir diğer dikkat çekici gelişme ABD hükümetinin kripto varlık transferleri oldu. Hükümet, yaklaşık 71,56 milyon dolar değerinde 834 BTC ile 31,63 milyon dolar değerinde 40.285 BNB’yi transfer etti. BTC’lerin Coinbase Prime’a gönderilmesi potansiyel satış ihtimalini gündeme getirse de zincir üzerindeki veriler henüz satışın gerçekleştiğini doğrulamadı.
Bitcoin ETF Çıkışları Satış Baskısını Artırdı Mı? Bitcoin düşüşünden hemen önce spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinde de negatif net akış görüldü. En büyük çıkış ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF’sinden gerçekleşti ve fondan 994 BTC ayrıldı.
Tüm spot BTC ETF’leri toplandığında yaklaşık 1.059 BTC, yani 91,72 milyon dolar değerinde Bitcoin piyasadan çıktı. Buna rağmen haftalık toplam net akış yaklaşık 93 milyon dolar pozitif kalmayı sürdürdü.
Bu ayrım önemli. Günlük ETF çıkışları kısa vadede satış baskısını artırırken haftalık net akışın pozitif olması kurumsal talebin tamamen ortadan kalkmadığını gösteriyor. Dolayısıyla kripto para piyasasındaki hareketi değerlendirirken tek bir günlük ETF verisine odaklanmak yanıltıcı olabilir.
Long Tasfiyeleri Düşüşü Nasıl Hızlandırdı? Bitcoin’deki gerileme sırasında kaldıraçlı long pozisyonlarda büyük çaplı tasfiyeler gerçekleşti. Son 24 günlük dönemde 358 milyon doların üzerinde long pozisyon silindi.
Toplam 425 milyon dolarlık long tasfiyesinin yüzde 84’ünü bu pozisyonlar oluşturdu. Buna karşılık BTC tarafındaki short tasfiyeleri yalnızca 5,67 milyon dolar seviyesinde kaldı.
Bu tablo, düşüşün kendi kendini hızlandırdığı bir long squeeze ortamına işaret ediyor. Fiyat geriledikçe kaldıraçlı long pozisyonların kapanması yeni satışlar yaratırken, satışlar da Bitcoin’in daha aşağı seviyeleri test etmesine neden oldu.
Bitcoin İçin 85 Bin Dolar Neden Kritik? 15 dakikalık grafiklerde Bitcoin’in kısa vadeli yapısı, yalnızca 20 dakika içinde yaklaşık 2.000 dolar kaybettikten sonra ayıların kontrolüne geçti. Fiyat düşerken Aggregated Open Interest’in yükselmesi de yatırımcıların yeni short pozisyonlar biriktirdiğine işaret etti.
Negatif Coinbase Premium da bu görünümü destekledi. Söz konusu gösterge, ABD merkezli yatırımcıların ve hükümet bağlantılı işlemlerin Bitcoin üzerinde satış veya short yönlü baskı oluşturduğu şeklinde yorumlandı.
Bu tabloda Bitcoin’in kısa vadeli düşüş görünümünü geçersiz kılması için 85.000 doları yeniden güçlü bir destek haline getirmesi gerekiyor. BTC bu seviyeyi geri alamazsa 80.000 dolar ve daha düşük bölgeler sonraki hedef haline gelebilir.

Kripto piyasasında çarşamba günü başlayan satış dalgası hız kesmedi. Bitcoin 82.200 dolara gerileyerek 17 günlük dip seviyeyi gördü. Toplam kripto piyasa değeri de 36 saat içinde 2,92 trilyon dolardan 2,81 trilyon dolara indi. Bu, yaklaşık 110 milyar dolarlık değer kaybı anlamına geliyor.
Bitcoin’in düşüşü altcoinlere de yayıldı. ZEC %6 gerilerken XRP, HYPE ve LINK yaklaşık %3-4 değer kaybetti. Buna karşın bazı altcoinler satış dalgasına direnerek çift haneli yükselişler kaydetti.
Bitcoin 82.200 Dolara Neden Geriledi? Bitcoin, geçen haftanın sonunda açıklanan ABD istihdam verisinin ardından kısa süreli bir yükseliş yaşadı. Verinin beklentilerden zayıf gelmesiyle BTC hızla yükselerek 87.250 dolara çıktı.
Ancak bu hareket uzun sürmedi. Bitcoin birkaç saat içinde 3.000 doların üzerinde geriledi ve 84.000 doların altına indi. Fiyat burada destek buldu ve cumartesi günü yeniden 84.000 doların üzerine çıktı.
Pazar akşamı ve pazartesi sabahı alıcılar yeniden 87.000 dolar bölgesini denedi. Bitcoin yine bu seviyeyi aşamadı ve yaklaşık 85.000 dolara çekildi.
Kısa süreli toparlanmayla fiyat 86.700 dolara kadar çıksa da ikinci reddedilme daha sert oldu. Bitcoin yalnızca 20 dakika içinde 2.000 dolar kaybetti ve ilk toparlanma 84.300 dolarda durdu.
Satış baskısı bugün de devam etti. BTC 82.200 dolara kadar gerileyerek 17 günün en düşük seviyesini gördü. Fiyat daha sonra 83.000 dolar civarında dengelenirken Bitcoin’in piyasa değeri yaklaşık 1,66 trilyon dolara düştü.
Bitcoin dominansı ise yaklaşık %59 seviyesinde kaldı.
Altcoinlerde En Çok Hangi Coinler Düştü? Bitcoin’deki satış baskısı altcoinlere de yayıldı. Ethereum 2.700 doların üzerindeyken 2.560 dolara kadar geriledi. ETH son 24 saatte %1,6 değer kaybetti. XRP ise 1,50 dolardaki direnci aşamayınca 1,41 dolara çekildi. Solana 115 dolar seviyesine inerken HYPE da 90 doların altında kaldı.
En sert kayıp Zcash’te görüldü. ZEC %6 gerileyerek 1.240 dolara düştü. DOGE, LINK, RAIN, BCH, LTC, UNI, ENA, PUMP ve SKY de günü kayıpla geçirdi.
Ancak satış dalgası piyasadaki tüm coinleri sürüklemedi. BTW %11’in üzerinde yükseldi. JUP, RAY, CRV ve ALGO da çift haneli kazanç sağlayan altcoinler arasında yer aldı.
Kripto Piyasasının Toplam Değeri Ne Kadar Düştü? CoinMarketCap verilerine göre toplam kripto piyasa değeri son 36 saatte 2,920 trilyon dolardan 2,810 trilyon dolara geriledi.
İki değer arasındaki fark yaklaşık 110 milyar dolar. Kaynak bu düşüşü “100 milyon doların biraz üzerinde” olarak ifade etse de verilen 2,920 trilyon ve 2,810 trilyon dolarlık değerler yaklaşık 110 milyar dolarlık kayba denk geliyor.
Bitcoin tarafındaki ardışık reddedilmeler, satış baskısının altcoinlere yayılmasıyla birleşince piyasa genelinde değer kaybı hızlandı. BTC’nin 82.200 dolardan gelen tepkisinin devam edip etmeyeceği ve 87.000 dolardaki dirençle yeniden karşılaşıp karşılaşmayacağı, kısa vadeli görünüm açısından önemini koruyor.
Altcoinlerde ise XRP’nin 1,50 doların altında kalması ve Ethereum’un 2.700 dolar bölgesini yeniden kazanamaması, toparlanmanın henüz güçlenmediğini gösteren seviyeler arasında.
Bu içerik genel piyasa verilerine dayanır ve yatırım tavsiyesi değildir. Kendi araştırmanızı yapmanızı öneririz.

Bitcoin hovered between $81,000 and $82,000 in Thursday trading, slipping further after losing the $83,000 support level that had provided stability in recent sessions. The broader cryptocurrency market remains under pressure as Ethereum dropped below $2,500, and Solana approached $110, leaving both altcoins facing steeper declines than Bitcoin itself.
Altcoins face greater volatilityEthereum’s fall beneath $2,500 returns the leading smart-contract platform to a key technical and psychological level. This marks a reversal after the network saw multiple failed attempts to rally above this threshold. Ethereum had recently appeared vulnerable to volatile swings, with analysts previously noting that continued upside for the token relies heavily on robust institutional inflows and improved market liquidity.
Solana recorded an even sharper drop amid the latest selloff. This reflects a frequent market pattern: higher-beta altcoins, such as Solana, tend to experience larger percentage losses during periods of heightened risk aversion, while Bitcoin generally proves to be more resilient.
Solana’s sharper decline highlights how risk-off sentiment often hits higher-volatility cryptocurrencies with more force than Bitcoin.
Macro environment pressuresSeveral macroeconomic factors contributed to the latest downward move in the crypto market. Brent crude oil surged above $105 per barrel as geopolitical tensions involving attacks on shipping routes and production outages in the United States reignited fears about the security of global energy supplies. Simultaneously, global Treasury yields rose as investors reassessed inflation risks stemming from the oil price spike.
These factors have direct implications for speculative assets, including cryptocurrencies.
Higher yields on US government debt increase the appeal of lower-risk investments, potentially drawing capital away from digital assets like Bitcoin. At the same time, continued increases in energy prices raise the prospect of persistent inflation, which could lessen the chance of central banks easing monetary policy in the near term.
In the past, the interplay between macroeconomic trends and digital assets has worked differently. Bitcoin’s earlier rally linked to crude oil fluctuations occurred during periods when oil prices were dropping and expectations for easier financial conditions were rising.
The combined effect of higher energy prices and rising bond yields introduces additional challenges for Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies.
Mini dictionary: Brent crude is a major trading classification of crude oil that serves as a global benchmark price for purchases of oil worldwide. Its price movements often have a direct impact on financial markets, including cryptocurrencies, due to their influence on inflation and investor sentiment.
Dünyanın önde gelen kredi derecelendirme kuruluşlarından Moody’s, eski adı MakerDAO olan Sky Protocol için dikkat çeken bir değerlendirme yayımladı. Kuruluş, merkeziyetsiz finans (DeFi) projesine yüksek kredi riski taşıyan B3 notunu verirken kredi notu görünümünü durağan olarak belirledi. Eylül 2026 itibarıyla yaklaşık 10 milyar dolarlık varlığı yöneten Sky Protocol’ün yalnızca 90 milyon dolarlık özsermayeye sahip olması, değerlendirmede öne çıkan önemli unsurlardan biri oldu.
Moody’s, Sky Protocol İçin B3 Kredi Notunu Açıkladı Moody’s, kripto para ve merkeziyetsiz finans sektörünün önemli projelerinden Sky Protocol’e B3 kredi notu verdi. Bu derece, yatırım yapılabilir seviyenin altında bulunan ve yüksek kredi riski taşıyan spekülatif kategoride yer alıyor. Kuruluşun kredi notu görünümünü durağan olarak açıklaması ise mevcut risk değerlendirmesinde kısa vadede önemli bir değişiklik beklenmediğine işaret ediyor. Moody’s tarafından yapılan bu inceleme, DeFi projelerinin geleneksel finans kuruluşlarının risk değerlendirme süreçlerinde giderek daha fazla yer bulduğunu gösteriyor.

Moody’s tarafından yayımlanan değerlendirmede, Sky Protocol’ün finansal yapısına ilişkin önemli veriler paylaşıldı. Eylül 2026 itibarıyla protokolün yönetim altındaki varlıklarının yaklaşık 10 milyar dolar seviyesinde olduğu belirtildi. Buna karşılık projenin özsermayesinin yaklaşık 90 milyon dolar olması, finansal dayanıklılık açısından dikkat çeken bir unsur olarak değerlendirildi. Yönetilen varlıkların büyüklüğüne kıyasla sınırlı özsermaye bulunması, olası piyasa dalgalanmaları ve finansal riskler karşısında protokolün sermaye yapısının önemini artırıyor.
Sky Frontier Foundation’dan Moody’s Açıklaması Sky Protocol ekosisteminin geleneksel finans kuruluşlarıyla ilişkilerini geliştirmeye odaklanan Sky Frontier Foundation, Moody’s tarafından verilen kredi notunu kamuoyuyla paylaştı.
Vakıf yöneticisi Greg Feibus, Moody’s tarafından gerçekleştirilen bağımsız incelemeden ve değerlendirme sürecinden memnuniyet duyduklarını ifade etti.
Kredi derecelendirme sürecinin vakfın talebiyle başlatılmış olabileceği değerlendirilirken bu konuda resmi bir doğrulama bulunmuyor. Söz konusu inceleme, Sky Protocol’ün kurumsal finans dünyasındaki görünürlüğünü artırabilecek gelişmeler arasında değerlendiriliyor. Sky Protocol, uluslararası kredi derecelendirme kuruluşlarının değerlendirmelerine ilk kez konu olmuyor. Ağustos 2025’te S&P Global Ratings de projeye B- kredi notu vermişti. S&P Global ve Moody’s tarafından verilen notlar, Sky Protocol’ün kredi risklerinin geleneksel finans standartları çerçevesinde değerlendirildiğini ortaya koyuyor.
Değerlendirme Moody’s tarafından Sky Protocol’e verilen B3 kredi notu, projenin yüksek kredi riski taşıdığını ortaya koyarken DeFi sektörünün geleneksel finans kuruluşları tarafından daha yakından incelendiğini gösteriyor. Yaklaşık 10 milyar dolarlık yönetilen varlığa karşılık 90 milyon dolarlık özsermaye bulunması, protokolün finansal yapısına yönelik değerlendirmelerde öne çıkıyor. Önümüzdeki dönemde Sky Protocol’ün risk yönetimi, sermaye yapısı ve kurumsal finans dünyasıyla geliştireceği ilişkiler yakından takip edilecek.

BTC price remains under pressure as fresh Bitcoin news points to another large movement of crypto linked to the U.S. government. Arkham data shows that government wallets have moved more than 12,260 BTC, worth roughly $1.1 billion. The transfers have raised fresh concerns about possible selling pressure across the market.
Bitcoin News: US Government Moves Over 12K BTC In the latest Bitcoin news, the latest US government activity has caught the attention of crypto market traders. Arkham data indicates that government-linked wallets have moved more than 12,260 BTC in total. At current valuations, the stash is worth about $1.1 billion.
Meanwhile, the development comes after another major transfer on October 7, 2026. On-chain data showed the government moved around $103 million in seized crypto assets that day, and the transaction involved 833.6 BTC worth nearly $71.56 million.
The same movement also included 40,285 BNB, while that portion was valued at approximately $31.63 million. According to Bitcoin news, the size of these transfers has intensified discussions about the government’s intentions.
Notably, large wallet movements often attract attention because they can precede changes in market liquidity. However, moving coins does not automatically mean that the assets have entered the open market.
Can This Impact BTC Price? According to Bitcoin news, traders are now assessing whether the latest transfers could eventually translate into selling activity. A direct sale could increase available supply and potentially add short-term pressure on BTC.
On the other hand, the BTC price has continued to stay in the red, falling around 2% in the last seven days to around $82.5k. Still, the Bitcoin news transfer itself does not confirm an immediate selloff.
Government-held crypto can move between wallets for custody, administrative, or liquidation-related reasons. Investors therefore need to distinguish wallet activity from confirmed exchange deposits or executed sales.
Despite that, investors should exercise due diligence, given the ongoing topsy-turvy scenario in the market. In addition, the ongoing Fed rate hike concerns, after the latest US FOMC, could further impact the sentiment of the broader financial sector, let alone the crypto market.
The US government moved approximately $1.01 billion in Bitcoin on October 8, raising fears of a major sell-off as the cryptocurrency market continued to decline.
Arkham data shows two outgoing transfers from a wallet holding Bitcoin seized in the Bitfinex hack. Lookonchain traced the larger transfer to two new addresses, holding approximately 6,000 BTC and 6,267 BTC.
Neither destination was identified as an exchange.
Bitcoin Price Falls Amid Government Transfer FearsBitcoin was trading near $81,300 on Thursday, down approximately 3% today.
The Bitcoin price chart shows a broader decline already underway. Rising US Treasury yields and oil prices have pressured risk assets, making it difficult to attribute the latest losses directly to the government transfers.
Is the US Government Preparing to Sell?The origin of the funds offers an important clue.
The Bitcoin came from the 2016 Bitfinex hack, when nearly 120,000 BTC were stolen. Federal investigators recovered more than 94,000 BTC in 2022.
Interestingly, Arkham’s September 2026 research identified a separate recovery of approximately 12,267 BTC, almost exactly today’s transferred amount.
The movement could represent a custody reshuffle or preparation for another transfer.
There is precedent. In December 2024, the government moved $1.92 billion in Bitcoin, initially sending a $100 test payment before transferring 10,000 BTC to Coinbase Prime.
Today’s large transfer has no confirmed exchange destination.
Another explanation involves restitution. In January 2025, US prosecutors argued that seized Bitcoin should be returned to Bitfinex.
Trump’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve order also prohibits selling Bitcoin deposited into the reserve, while permitting certain court-ordered distributions and victim restitution.
Overall, the $1 billion transfer is real. The evidence currently points to movement between wallets, with no confirmed sale.
Custody changes and possible restitution remain plausible explanations. Further transfers or official disclosures are needed to establish the government’s intentions.
In brief U.S. government-linked wallets moved 12,267 BTC, worth about $1.01 billion, from the Bitfinex hack seizure to a new, unlabeled address on Thursday, per Arkham. The transfer followed Wednesday flows of about $119 million in USDT and roughly 2,574 BTC to Coinbase Prime, which also offers custody, so a sale isn't confirmed. A March 2025 executive order directs forfeited Bitcoin into a reserve that won't be sold. The government still holds about $24.85 billion in Bitcoin. The U.S. government just shuffled more than $1 billion worth of Bitcoin tied to one of crypto's most notorious hacks.
A wallet that blockchain analytics firm Arkham labels as holding the Bitfinex hacker's seized funds sent 12,267 BTC, worth about $1.01 billion, in a single transaction at 9:33 a.m. ET on Thursday. Nearly all of it landed at a new, unlabeled address, while 0.0012 BTC went to a second wallet.
Myriad: How low will Bitcoin go? Click to make your prediction.The coins didn't go to an exchange, and moves between wallets aren't necessarily a sign of a sale. Arkham's data does mark both outputs as already spent, though, meaning the coins have since moved again.
The Bitcoin is part of roughly 94,000 BTC the government seized in 2022 from Ilya Lichtenstein, who orchestrated the 2016 Bitfinex hack, and his wife, Heather "Razzlekhan" Morgan. As Decrypt reported in April, the government also moved a small batch of about 8.2 BTC from the same seizure to Coinbase Prime.
US government Bitcoin moves. Image: ArkhamThursday's transfer follows other similar, recent moves. On Wednesday, government-linked wallets sent about $119 million in USDT to Coinbase Prime, along with roughly 2,574 BTC, worth about $215 million, routed through intermediary addresses, according to Arkham.
In July, it shifted $288 million in seized crypto to Coinbase Prime. Because Coinbase Prime also offers custody, deposits there don't confirm a sale.
The activity raises fresh questions about what Washington plans to do with its stash. President Donald Trump's March 2025 executive order directed forfeited Bitcoin into a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve that wouldn't be sold. That August, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent walked back comments suggesting the government wouldn't buy more Bitcoin, saying it would explore budget-neutral ways to add to the reserve.
Before the order, a federal court in January 2025 cleared the way for the sale of $6.5 billion in Bitcoin seized from Silk Road.
The government still holds about 306,795 BTC, worth roughly $24.85 billion with Bitcoin trading near $81,000, according to Arkham.

TLDR US Government wallets transferred 12,267 Bitcoin worth approximately $1.01 billion to unidentified addresses. Arkham data showed no confirmed exchange deposit or sale linked to Thursday’s Bitcoin transfer. Galaxy Research tracked another $770 million in Bitcoin transfers to Coinbase Prime over two days. Government-linked cryptocurrency movements approached $1.87 billion, including transfers involving seized Bitcoin and USDT. Bitfinex restitution proceedings and Strategic Bitcoin Reserve rules remain relevant to the ownership of seized assets. Wallets linked to the US Government transferred 12,267 Bitcoin, worth about $1.01 billion, on October 8. Blockchain tracker Arkham traced the funds to Bitcoin recovered from the 2016 Bitfinex hack. The transfers reached unidentified addresses, not exchange deposit wallets.
US Government Sends Bitcoin to New Addresses Arkham recorded 12,267.02 BTC leaving a wallet holding seized Bitfinex funds. The coins reached new addresses without public ownership labels. A small additional transaction appeared around the same time.
The addresses do not identify their owners. Blockchain records show movement between addresses but cannot establish the purpose. No confirmed sale accompanied Thursday’s transfers.
The activity followed an earlier movement of seized Bitcoin and BNB reported on October 7. That transfer included approximately 833.6 BTC worth $71.56 million sent to Coinbase Prime. Another 40,285 BNB moved through separate addresses.
Coinbase Prime Received Earlier Transfers Galaxy Research tracked roughly 9,261 BTC, worth $770 million, entering Coinbase Prime across October 6 and 7. The researchers linked many coins to past government seizures. They also identified 2,456 BTC from wallets not previously labeled as government holdings.
Coinbase Prime handles custody and trading, so deposits cannot confirm sales. FTX-linked wallets sent about $94.15 million in USDT to Coinbase Prime. Combined transfers reached approximately $1.87 billion over three days.
The transfers came as US Bitcoin ETFs recorded heavy withdrawals on October 7. The funds posted approximately $485 million in net outflows, their largest daily loss since June. Bitcoin traded near $82,000 on Thursday.
Bitfinex Restitution Complicates Bitcoin Sale Claims The 2016 Bitfinex hack involved nearly 120,000 stolen Bitcoin. US authorities later recovered more than 94,000 BTC linked to the theft. In 2025, prosecutors sought to return recovered funds to the exchange.
Those proceedings distinguish recovered customer property from Bitcoin that the government can retain. A March 2025 order established the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and restricted sales of forfeited Bitcoin held there. It does not automatically cover coins awaiting restitution.
A separate Bitfinex-linked Bitcoin transfer reached Coinbase earlier this week. That movement involved approximately 265 BTC, valued near $23 million. Authorities have not confirmed that Thursday’s larger transfer formed part of the same process.
Arkham estimates that government-linked wallets still hold about $25.5 billion in cryptocurrency. The latest activity remains visible on the blockchain, but the final destination and purpose remain unknown.

TL;DR: US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $484.9 million in net outflows on October 7, according to Farside Investors. BlackRock’s IBIT led the withdrawals with $207.7 million leaving the fund, while Fidelity and ARK also posted nine-figure outflows.
A day after Bitcoin ETF inflows appeared to recover, institutional money moved sharply in the other direction.
US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded $484.9 million in combined net outflows on October 7, according to updated data from Farside Investors.
The redemptions were broad rather than concentrated in one legacy product.
BlackRock‘s IBIT, normally the strongest source of positive flow in the group, lost $207.7 million.
Fidelity’s FBTC recorded another $105.1 million of net outflows, while ARK’s ARKB lost $101.7 million.
Bitwise’s BITB posted $27.6 million of outflows, Grayscale‘s GBTC lost $39.3 million and VanEck’s HODL shed $3.5 million.
The scale of the reversal stands out because the group had recorded $118.8 million of net inflows just one session earlier.
BlackRock itself had taken in $122 million on October 6 before becoming the biggest source of redemptions the following day.
That is a useful reminder of how quickly ETF flows can change.
Large creations and redemptions do not necessarily represent a permanent institutional view on Bitcoin. Funds are used for tactical trades, portfolio rebalancing, arbitrage and longer-term exposure, all of which can produce significant daily swings.
Still, nearly half a billion dollars leaving the products in one session is difficult to ignore.
The composition matters.
GBTC was once routinely responsible for most of the sector’s negative flow as investors exited the higher-fee legacy trust after its conversion to an ETF.
October 7 looked different.
The largest withdrawals came from products run by BlackRock, Fidelity and ARK, indicating that the selling pressure reached funds that have historically attracted substantial new capital.
Bitcoin was trading in a more difficult macro environment at the same time, with risk assets under pressure and investors watching interest rates, energy prices and geopolitical developments.
ETF flows cannot prove why a market moved, but they offer a direct view into how one of Bitcoin’s largest regulated investment channels is behaving.
That channel has become increasingly important since spot products opened the market to investors who do not want to hold BTC directly.
One bad session does not break that structural story.
But October 7 was not a marginal pullback either.
For the first time in several sessions, the strongest message from the ETF market was not accumulation.
