The Japanese Yen Risk for Bitcoin: The $150 Level Is Key!
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin, küresel likidite koşullarındaki değişimlere karşı hassas bir dijital varlık olmaya devam ediyor. Japon yenindeki güçlenme ise bu kez kripto para piyasası açısından yakından izlenmesi gereken bir gelişme olarak öne çıkıyor. Hedge fonlarının pozisyonları, dolar/yen kurunun yıl sonunda 150 seviyesinin altına inebileceğine, bazı uzun vadeli işlemlerde ise 140 seviyesine kadar gerileyebileceğine işaret ediyor.

Hedge Fonları Yen İçin Nasıl Pozisyon Alıyor? Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Group verileri, yatırımcıların yenin değer kazanacağı yönünde yoğunlaştığını gösteriyor. Salı günü dolar/yen paritesinde en aktif kontrat, kullanım fiyatı 142,86 olan kasım vadeli put opsiyonu oldu.

Yıl sonundan önce sona erecek put opsiyonlarının sayısı call opsiyonlarının üç katından fazla seviyeye çıktı. Put opsiyonları, doların yen karşısında değer kaybetmesi durumunda değer kazandığı için bu tablo yatırımcıların daha güçlü yen beklentisini ortaya koyuyor.

Dolar/yen kuru salı gününe kadar geçen bir haftada yaklaşık yüzde 5 geriledi. Parite daha sonra kayıplarının bir bölümünü geri alsa da hareket, yen üzerinden borçlanarak yatırım yapan yatırımcıların carry trade pozisyonlarını hızla kapatmasına neden oldu.

Yen Neden Bir Anda Güçlenmeye Başladı? Hareketin hızını anlamak için birkaç hafta geriye gitmek gerekiyor. Üç hafta önce dolar/yen kuru yaklaşık 159 seviyesinde bulunurken Japon yatırımcılar hâlâ carry trade işlemlerini artırıyordu.

15 Ağustos’a kadar olan iki haftalık dönemde Japon yatırımcılar 5 trilyon yenden fazla yabancı varlık satın aldı. Ancak Japonya’da yükselen enflasyon, piyasa beklentilerini tersine çevirdi.

Japonya Merkez Bankası Başkanı Kazuo Ueda ve yönetim kurulu üyesi Hajime Takata’nın daha şahin mesajlar vermesi, yen lehine hareketi hızlandırdı. Dolar/yen paritesi daha sonra, Japonya Maliye Bakanlığı’nın mayıs ayındaki müdahalesine rağmen korunan 155 seviyesinin altına indi.

Çarşamba günü parite yaklaşık 153,44 seviyesinde işlem gördü. Buna rağmen dolar karşısında yen yıl genelinde hâlâ yüzde 2,1 değer kaybetmiş durumda.

Güçlü Yen Bitcoin Fiyatını Neden Baskılayabilir? Bitcoin şimdilik bu hareketten ciddi şekilde etkilenmiş görünmüyor. BTC çarşamba günü 78.848 dolar civarında işlem görürken son 24 saatte yüzde 0,26 yükseldi. Ancak asıl risk, yen üzerinden finanse edilen pozisyonların çalışma mekanizmasından kaynaklanıyor.

Yatırımcılar düşük maliyetle yen borçlanıp bu kaynakları dolar bazlı kripto pozisyonlarında kullanabiliyor. Yen güçlendiğinde borcun geri ödeme maliyeti yükseliyor ve yatırımcıların riskli varlıkları elde tutma isteği azalabiliyor.

Japon tahvil getirilerinin yükselmesi de bu süreci destekliyor. Daha yüksek getiriler, yatırımcılar açısından yen cinsinden varlıkları daha cazip hale getirirken carry trade işlemlerinin avantajını azaltıyor.

Bitcoin İçin 150 Seviyesi Neden Kritik? Her iki hareket aynı anda hızlanırsa yatırımcılar carry trade pozisyonlarını zorunlu olarak kapatabilir. Böyle bir çözülme, Bitcoin ve diğer riskli varlıklarda satış baskısını artırabilir.

Nomura’nın verilerine göre makro fonlar şu anda dolar/yen paritesinde 150-152 bölgesine odaklanıyor. 12 aylık vadeye sahip bazı yapılandırılmış işlemler ise 140 seviyesine kadar uzanıyor.

Dolayısıyla Bitcoin açısından yalnızca fiyat grafiğini takip etmek yeterli olmayabilir. Japonya Merkez Bankası’nın eylül toplantısında yenin güçlenmesini destekleyen beklentileri doğrulayıp doğrulamayacağı kritik önem taşıyor.

Bu içerik kesinlikle yatırım tavsiyesi niteliği taşımamaktadır. Piyasalar yüksek risk içermektedir ve yatırım kararlarınızı almadan önce kendi araştırmanızı yapmanız önemlidir.

XRP Beats Solana (SOL), Hyperliquid (HYPE) and Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs as Only Spot Product With Inflows
BTC Bitcoin

Among the biggest cryptocurrency assets, XRP has had the best daily ETF flow result. It is now the only significant spot cryptocurrency ETF category to draw in new investment, while Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and Hyperliquid products all saw withdrawals.

XRP reaches breakthrough thresholdAccording to the most recent spot ETF data from September 8, the net inflows for XRP products were about $1.55 million. Although the amount is modest in absolute terms, it is noteworthy when compared to rival assets.

Source: Sosovalue HOT Stories

Bitcoin ETFs ended a three-day inflow streak with net outflows of $46.65 million. Ethereum followed with $24.29 million in outflows from spot products, while Hyperliquid ETFs experienced withdrawals of $12.96 million. A smaller $667,720 outflow was reported by Solana. As a result, XRP was the only asset among these five that had positive daily flows.

Additionally, the overall view is still positive. Five U.S. spot XRP ETFs have net assets of about $1.51 billion and cumulative net inflows of about $1.69 billion. In just the past 30 days, XRP products have brought in about $173 million.

Is XRP in pre-breakout territory?When compared to the underlying market, the divergence becomes especially intriguing. Following its significant August breakout, XRP is currently trading between $1.39 and $1.40 and is still above the long-term moving average at $1.35. Buyers have so far avoided a total reversal toward pre-breakout territory, even though the initial rally has cooled.

Though its ETF flows have gone negative for the day, Bitcoin is likewise consolidating around $79,000 following its swift recovery. Despite its ETF outflow, HYPE is still near its recent highs of $86, while SOL is holding around $104 following its surge toward $110.

However, a single successful session should not be taken as proof that institutional capital is firmly shifting to XRP. At about $55.59 billion, Bitcoin's total ETF inflows are still much higher.  

The current divergence may be a sign of relatively higher institutional demand if inflows continue while BTC, SOL, and HYPE products find it difficult to draw in capital. As of right now, XRP has emerged victorious in the daily ETF flow comparison; however, confirming a significant trend will require a few more positive sessions.

US Treasuries extended their decline after the repurchase announcement, with the market viewing the $6 billion cap as insufficient.

The U.S. Treasury Department said it will purchase between $40 billion and $60 billion in long-term government debt in the first operation of its expanded repurchase program, demonstrating Secretary Bessent’s resolve to curb the recent rise in borrowing costs. U.S. Treasuries extended their earlier decline following the announcement, indicating the program’s size fell short of some investors’ expectations. The success of the expanded purchase program remains to be seen. After the program was first announced last month, yields fell before rebounding later. The benchmark 10-year yield hit its highest level since 2023 last week. Economist Guha, a former staffer at the New York Fed, noted: “The challenge always lies in whether the impact of these interventions can persist without larger fundamental changes.” Moreover, the maximum size of the repurchase operation does not mean the Treasury will necessarily purchase that amount of Treasuries. However, in repurchases targeting long-term nominal debt, the department typically buys the full amount; since the program was relaunched in 2024, it has only failed to do so in two of 52 such operations.

Two-Way Scenario for Bitcoin (BTC) from a Chinese Founder: “First $84,000, Then…”
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Jiang Zhuoer, one of China’s most well-known cryptocurrency miners and the founder of BTC.TOP, has offered his current assessment of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Analysis from Jiang Zhuoer! Jiang Zhuoer, in a post from account X, stated that Bitcoin’s current uptrend has not yet ended, but a significant correction in the market may be on the horizon.

Jiang stated that Bitcoin could rise to the $83,000-$84,000 range before pulling back.

The renowned analyst also noted that Bitcoin is still moving within an upward channel. However, Zhuoer stated that a correction is possible following the current rise.

Zhuoer added that if the $82,300 level is the pre-correction peak, the pullback will be prolonged, followed by frustrating sideways trading with wide price fluctuations.

Watch Out for the $72,000 Level! Jiang states that his base scenario is for Bitcoin to first test the $83,000-$84,000 region, and then retreat to around $72,000. Indeed, Zhuoer had previously announced a few days ago that he closed his Bitcoin position at around $82,050 and considered the $83,000-$84,000 region a significant resistance area.

In conclusion, it should be remembered that this assessment is Jiang’s personal opinion and Bitcoin could move in a different direction.

Strategy CEO Phong Le aims to provide Bitcoin access to 8 billion people
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Phong Le has a modest goal: get every human on Earth access to Bitcoin. The Strategy CEO laid out his vision for the company to serve as a bridge between traditional capital markets and the world’s largest cryptocurrency, using the firm’s suite of securities products to bring Bitcoin exposure to all 8 billion people on the planet.

It’s the kind of ambition that sounds absurd until you look at what Strategy has already pulled off. The company, formerly known as MicroStrategy before its February 2025 rebrand, holds approximately 845,050 BTC on its balance sheet. That’s more than 4% of Bitcoin’s entire supply, locked inside one corporate treasury.

The securities play Strategy’s approach to Bitcoin isn’t just “buy and hold.” Under Le’s leadership since 2022, the company has built out a capital structure designed to give investors amplified Bitcoin exposure through traditional financial instruments.

Rather than simply tracking Bitcoin’s price, Strategy offers equity, preferred stock, and other securities that provide Bitcoin-linked returns. The firm’s STRC variable-rate perpetual preferred shares, for instance, give investors a way to earn Bitcoin-correlated yields without ever touching a wallet or exchange.

Le has described the company’s role in grand terms, likening Strategy to the “JPMorgan of the crypto economy.” Le has also stated that a core mission is delivering returns to shareholders that exceed Bitcoin’s own performance, a goal made possible by the company’s ability to raise capital through equity sales and redeploy it into BTC.

The key distinction Le draws is that his decisions around Bitcoin transactions hinge on cost of capital rather than spot price movements. Most retail Bitcoin holders obsess over daily price action. Le’s team thinks about whether selling equity or deploying BTC to fund preferred dividends makes more financial sense at any given moment.

How the math works in practice A recent example illustrates the approach. During the summer of 2026, Strategy sold roughly 7,000 BTC at prices between $60,000 and $65,000 to cover preferred dividend obligations. Later, the company turned around and purchased 4,603 BTC at an average price of approximately $80,318.

On the surface, selling low and buying higher looks counterintuitive. But Le’s framework prioritizes maintaining zero net debt and substantial cash reserves over timing the market. The sales funded obligations that would have otherwise required debt issuance, while the subsequent purchase reflected a strategic reallocation when capital conditions were favorable.

Making Bitcoin investable for everyone Le’s 8-billion-person ambition isn’t purely aspirational posturing. There’s a practical logic to it. Billions of people around the world have access to brokerage accounts or investment platforms that support equity and preferred stock purchases. Far fewer have the technical know-how or regulatory access to buy Bitcoin directly.

By packaging Bitcoin exposure into traditional securities, Strategy effectively bypasses the friction that keeps most of the global population out of crypto. You don’t need a hardware wallet, a KYC-verified exchange account, or any understanding of private keys. You just need the ability to buy a stock.

For institutional investors who face regulatory constraints around holding crypto directly, Strategy’s securities offer a compliant alternative. For retail investors in countries where Bitcoin exchanges are restricted or unreliable, the stock ticker provides a backdoor into the asset class.

DECRYPT: Mexican Musician and Family Killed Over Bitcoin Cold Wallet Believed to Hold Millions

In brief Prosecutors allege the suspects entered Meléndez’s home searching for a cold wallet they believed held “million-dollar amounts in Bitcoin.” Meléndez, his pregnant wife, their three-year-old daughter and a domestic worker were killed. The couple’s six-year-old son survived. Two men have been arrested, with prosecutors alleging one offered the other 2 million pesos, or about $118,000, if they obtained the crypto. Mexican prosecutors allege two men targeted the home of Camilo Séptimo keyboardist Jonathan Meléndez in search of a cold wallet they believed contained millions of dollars in Bitcoin, killing the musician and three others.

According to a report by IBTimes UK, Meléndez, his pregnant wife Ana Paula Barragán, their three-year-old daughter Sofía, and 21-year-old domestic worker Aleyda Romero were found dead at the family’s home in Atizapán de Zaragoza, State of Mexico, on September 1. The couple’s six-year-old son survived.

Authorities identified the suspects as Diego Sebastián and Gerardo, using “N” in place of their surnames in accordance with Mexican privacy rules for criminal proceedings. Diego Sebastián, a business associate of Meléndez, allegedly used their relationship to gain access and offered Gerardo 2 million pesos, about $118,000, to help obtain the crypto. Both were arrested on September 2.

Cold wallets don’t store Bitcoin itself; instead, they are typically devices also known as hardware wallets, like the popular Ledger, Trezor, or the air-gapped Coldcard, that store the private keys that control access to the funds. While cold wallets protect against many online attacks, they do not eliminate physical threats, as criminals can target holders directly to gain access to their wallets.

The killings are the latest in an increase in physical attacks targeting crypto holders. Blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis documented 46 violent crypto attacks through late June, with more than $30 million stolen during the first half of 2026. Home invasions accounted for 37% of documented incidents.

In June, two Texas brothers pleaded guilty to holding a Minnesota family at gunpoint for more than eight hours and forcing the father to transfer more than $8 million in cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin fails to reclaim $80K as Bessent fuels yen strength around 153 per dollar
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin (BTC) struggled below $80,000 on Wednesday as attention refocused on the Japanese yen.

Key points:

Bitcoin saw further macro headwinds as US-Iran strikes pushed Brent crude oil above $100 per barrel.The Japanese yen continued to trade around 153 per dollar, its highest levels since February as yen shorts stayed near record highs.US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted at further interventions in yen currency markets to come.Bitcoin lacks momentum as Iran strikes sour risk-asset moodData from TradingView showed the local upside in the BTC/USD pair reversing as it attempted to revisit the $80,000 mark. BTC is currently down by around 0.4% on the day.

US stocks also drifted lower at the Wall Street open, fueled by fresh US strikes on Iranian oil tankers. The tensions helped send oil prices to new three-month highs, building on gains from the day prior. 

At the time of writing, WTI crude traded above $96 per barrel, while Brent crude surged above $101 per barrel for the first time since late July.

Traders also eyed fresh developments in the yen as Japan’s currency hit its highest levels against the dollar since February. It is currently at $0.0065, up 6.5% since the start of August.

Previously, Cointelegraph reported on repeated joint interventions in foreign exchange markets by Japan and the US, which resulted in the rapid strengthening. The yen’s gains continued despite speculation that Washington may keep Japan from selling US Treasuries as part of future interventions.

Yen short interest lingers near record highsCiting data from Bloomberg on Wednesday, Barchart flagged record yen short positioning at the start of September, with the total hovering above 5 trillion yen.

In subsequent commentary, Charu Chanana, chief investment strategist at Saxo, told Reuters that the yen’s continued strength would have implications for these shorts as part of an unwinding of the yen carry trade. The USD/JPY pair is key for liquidity conditions that could ultimately impact crypto markets.

“The carry trade is vulnerable because this unwind is happening before the BOJ has even delivered its expected hike,” she said. 

“Some yen shorts have already been cut, but positioning still looks sizeable, so further yen strength can turn a gradual reduction in leverage into a much faster, self-reinforcing unwind.”

The risk was exacerbated by the Bank of Japan’s anticipated 0.25% interest-rate hike at its next meeting on Sept. 28.

Last month, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent suggested that the door was open to future yen intervention operations. This week, he doubled down on those hints, appearing to dare short traders to bet against central banks.

“When we intervene with the Japanese yen, I have pretty good insight into what the Bank of Japan is going to do, what Japanese policymakers are going to do. I have asymmetric information. I am the house now,” he said in an event at Southern Methodist University in Texas on Tuesday, quoted by the Financial Times.

Bitcoin collateral, not trading volume, will signal real bank adoption: fintech veteran
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Fintech veteran Wojciech Kaszycki has identified three tests for real bank adoption of Bitcoin: client custody balances, credit-funded spot trades and its use as loan collateral, following Standard Chartered’s launch of deliverable BTC and ETH trading for eligible UAE institutions.

Summary

Standard Chartered now offers institutional BTC/USD and ETH/USD trading through its existing electronic channels. Kaszycki said bank credit lines, custody, and back-office integration matter more than a familiar trading screen. Bitcoin-backed loans with published collateral haircuts would show that banks can price and manage the asset’s risk. Crypto-native venues may retain their advantage in weekend liquidity, derivatives, and trading outside banking hours. Standard Chartered has put Bitcoin trading on existing bank rails Standard Chartered said on Sept. 3 that eligible institutions can trade deliverable Bitcoin and Ether through its Dubai International Financial Centre branch, making it the first global systemically important bank to offer institutional digital asset spot trading in the UAE.

The service supports BTC/USD and ETH/USD trades through the bank’s existing electronic channels, including interfaces already used for foreign exchange. Clients can choose where their assets settle, either using Standard Chartered’s UAE custody platform or another custodian.

As crypto.news previously reported, the bank introduced the UAE service more than a year after launching the same trading model through its UK branch in July 2025. Standard Chartered had already begun offering regulated digital asset custody in the UAE in September 2024, initially supporting Bitcoin and Ether with Brevan Howard Digital as its first client.

Wojciech Kaszycki, founder and chairman of Mobilum and a strategy advisor to Warsaw-listed BTCS S.A., told crypto.news that placing digital assets on a bank’s foreign exchange interface only removes one small obstacle for institutions.

According to Kaszycki, treasury teams care more about the identity of their counterparty, internal risk approval, custody standards, auditor acceptance, and the way each trade enters the company’s accounting system.

“Nobody on a treasury team ever says: ‘I’d buy bitcoin if only it looked like my EUR/USD ticket.”

A meaningful system, in his view, would connect Bitcoin trades to the credit lines, limits, confirmations, and back-office processes that institutions already use for currencies. Such integration would let a treasury department treat crypto as a regular balance-sheet item instead of running it as a separate project.

“If it’s just a new ticker in the GUI and everything behind it is manual, it’s a demo,” Kaszycki said.

Drawing on his work with a listed Bitcoin treasury company and a Dubai family office, he added that trading against a bank credit line without sending funds to a venue in advance would make it easier to secure board approval.

Bitcoin collateral would offer a clearer adoption test Spot volume provides a poor measure of institutional adoption because trading activity can rise without showing whether companies or funds intend to hold digital assets, according to Kaszycki.

He instead pointed to custody balances held at banks for clients outside the crypto industry. Such balances would show that conventional companies, funds, and other institutions have chosen to hold Bitcoin through regulated banking relationships rather than merely trade it.

His second indicator is bank credit for spot purchases. Removing the need to prefund a trade would indicate that a bank’s risk department has assessed the asset, set exposure limits, and approved it within the institution’s credit framework.

Bitcoin entering bank lending books would provide the strongest signal, he said, especially if lenders disclose the haircuts applied to the collateral. A haircut reduces the value that a bank assigns to pledged property when calculating how much it will lend.

“When a bank has to price it, custody it, and liquidate it if needed, that’s adoption. Everything else is marketing,” Kaszycki said.

Banks in the United States have already started moving in this direction. An August report on JPMorgan collateral cited Bitcoin haircuts of 30% to 50%, meaning $1 million in pledged BTC could support between $500,000 and $700,000 in loan proceeds, depending on the borrower and loan terms.

According to the report, accepting Bitcoin as collateral also creates liquidation risk because a steep price decline could trigger margin calls and forced sales. Lenders therefore need rules for valuation, custody, collateral monitoring and liquidation before placing BTC alongside assets such as bonds, equities or gold.

Kaszycki also pointed to listed companies whose auditors approve Bitcoin holdings on their balance sheets. BTCS holds Bitcoin as a treasury asset on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, and he said the audit process requires more work than completing the trade itself.

Separate custody leaves a settlement problem Allowing clients to use their preferred custodian offers flexibility, but Kaszycki said splitting execution and custody creates a familiar settlement risk. One party may need to transfer first, prefund the transaction, or use an escrow provider trusted by both sides.

Deliverable spot trading requires the buyer to receive the underlying Bitcoin or Ether rather than a cash-settled contract linked to its price. When the digital asset and cash travel through separate systems, completion of one leg can occur before the other.

Kaszycki compared the setup with foreign exchange settlement in 2005. In his assessment, Bitcoin can reach final settlement in under an hour at any time, while the dollar transfer may remain tied to SWIFT processing, bank opening hours, and payment cutoffs.

“The slow leg is fiat,” he said.

Tokenized bank deposits or regulated stablecoins could place the cash and asset legs on compatible systems, allowing payment-versus-payment settlement in which both transfers complete together, according to Kaszycki. Custodians would also need conditional release functions instead of waiting to confirm receipt of a wire before releasing the crypto.

For transactions between several banks, he said a netting network modeled on CLS could reduce the gross amounts that counterparties exchange bilaterally. Without such a system, banks must rely on credit lines, approved wallet lists, settlement windows, and staff monitoring blockchain explorers.

Standard Chartered has already tested ways to separate exchange activity from asset storage. Under a collateral-mirroring arrangement introduced by OKX in April 2025, institutions can keep eligible assets with the bank while their value appears in an exchange trading account. The framework later added BlackRock’s BUIDL tokenized U.S. Treasury fund as eligible collateral in April 2026.

Banks could win regulated flows while exchanges retain liquidity Large banks can capture more institutional crypto trading because corporate treasuries, investment funds, insurers and Gulf sovereign institutions often prefer counterparties that already support their compliance and credit requirements, Kaszycki said.

Clients may accept a higher spread in return for access to a bank’s balance sheet, documentation, and established relationship. Kaszycki expects banks to source prices from crypto-native markets before adding a spread for institutional customers.

Crypto exchanges would retain several advantages under such a structure. Their markets operate continuously, including weekends, while banks remain organized around business hours and existing staffing models. Native venues also offer more assets and deeper derivatives markets, where much of crypto price discovery still occurs.

“At BTCS, we already do most of our size OTC with market makers rather than on order books, exactly for settlement flexibility,” he said. “Banks are just the next step in that same logic.”

U.S. rules now give national banks room to participate in several parts of the process. A December 2025 report on OCC guidance explained that national banks may conduct matched crypto transactions as riskless principals, provided they offset the exposure and comply with trading, anti-money laundering and third-party risk controls.

Earlier OCC guidance also confirmed that national banks can provide crypto custody and execution or outsource those functions to qualified providers. Banks remain responsible for managing the risks created by sub-custodians and other outside firms.

An August review of the U.S. custody market found that BNY, State Street, Standard Chartered, U.S. Bank, and Citi had launched or were preparing direct digital asset custody services. The report linked increased bank participation to the SEC’s January 2025 withdrawal of Staff Accounting Bulletin 121 and OCC letters confirming banks’ custody authority.

Kaszycki said banks extending spot credit would show that their risk teams had built formal models for Bitcoin, while disclosed collateral haircuts would reveal how lenders value its volatility. On the corporate side, he would count listed companies whose auditors approve Bitcoin holdings, a process BTCS has already completed for its Warsaw-listed treasury.

DECRYPT: While Bitcoin Devs Debate Next Moves, IonQ Unveils Superion 256 Quantum Computer
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
In brief IonQ is taking orders for Superion 256, with customer deliveries scheduled for 2027. The company says electronics built into its chips will help it manufacture more systems at lower costs. Its first chips and prototypes mark progress, but IonQ has not disclosed results demonstrating a complete 256-qubit computer’s performance. Publicly traded tech company IonQ unveiled its Superion 256 quantum computer Tuesday, opening orders for a system it expects to deliver in 2027 as it works to expand production.

The Maryland-based company builds quantum computers and offers access through cloud services. It also develops quantum networking, sensing, and security technology.

Myriad: How high will Nvidia trade in Sept? Click to make your prediction.“Superion is the result of two strategic acquisitions coming together to deliver this historic milestone,” IonQ Chairman and CEO Niccolo de Masi said in a statement. “Oxford Ionics enabled IonQ to control natural, trapped-ion qubits using standard electronics, and SkyWater unlocked the ability to manufacture at semiconductor costs and scale.”

IonQ says its chipmaking subsidiary, SkyWater, has fabricated the first 256-qubit processors, and teams have trapped the first ions in prototypes at several U.S. facilities. A qubit is a quantum computer’s basic unit of information.

An ordinary computer bit holds either a zero or a one. A qubit can be prepared in a combination of those states before measurement, a property that quantum computers use to approach certain calculations differently.

More qubits can support more complex calculations, but they are sensitive to disturbances that cause errors. A 256-qubit computer’s usefulness depends on how reliably those qubits work together. IonQ aims to manufacture these systems using established chipmaking methods, with electronics built into the chip to control the atoms.

“Quantum computing, like classical computing before it, ultimately scales most powerfully on a semiconductor foundation,” de Masi said. “Superion 256 is the first quantum computer platform designed to be built by the hundreds rather than one at a time. Every generation that follows will be designed, fabricated, and packaged similarly—creating unique upgradeability in our Superion platform.”

IonQ says SkyWater cut its chip design cycle from nine months to two. Superion 256 fits a standard server rack and will also be accessible through IonQ’s cloud. The company pre-sold its first system in early 2026, with deliveries planned for 2027. It is also developing Superion 10K, aiming to demonstrate error-resistant computing in 2027 and begin commercial production in 2028.

The news comes as researchers debate how soon quantum computers could threaten Bitcoin. A powerful enough machine could use an exposed public key to calculate the secret key needed to spend someone else’s Bitcoin.

Such an attack would require sustained, reliable calculations using error-protected qubits, and a 256-qubit machine does not automatically break 256-bit security because the numbers measure different things.

Preparations are nevertheless underway. Galaxy announced up to $5 million in funding for Bitcoin quantum-security work in July, including developer grants, research, and an advisory council.

Wintermute Highlights Bitcoin Resilience With Equity Investors Rotating Capital Into BTC
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin (BTC) is holding firm above key levels despite strong US payrolls data that boosted Federal Reserve rate-hike odds.

Wintermute says August payrolls printed 162,000 against a 53,000 consensus, lifting September hike odds near 60%.

Bitcoin reached $82,400 before pulling back but still closed last week above $80,000, up 3.45%. The crypto market maker also notes that Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded $987 million in inflows last week for a third straight positive week, nearing $3.8 billion over the run, while Ethereum ETFs added $215 million over the same time frame.

According to Wintermute, investor capital is rotating from exhausted equities and consolidating gold into BTC and ETH.

“Crypto held a hot payrolls print that equities and duration didn’t, and the money that left gold and stalled equities showed up in BTC and ETH. That is the equity exhaustion we’ve been waiting on as the precondition for a new cycle.”

Bitcoin’s roughly 50% drawdown from peak is shallower than the 75%+ seen in 2018 and 2022 at similar points, consistent with earlier institutional participation via ETFs.

“Breadth is improving and profits from one cohort are funding the next, which is how a young cycle looks. It breaks when a rotation lands on a cohort that doesn’t lift or the majors roll over without a new leader…

Glass half full. We’d revise on a clean break below $72,000 with ETF outflows turning meaningfully negative, faster if CPI pushes hike odds through 70%.”

Bitcoin Gives Back Its Overnight Gain As Brent Tops $100
BTC Bitcoin ZEC Zcash
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin reached $79,701.36 overnight and had round-tripped the move by midday in New York, leaving it flat over 24 hours. Ninety-three of the 123 largest non-stablecoin tokens are lower. Zcash holds a 56.3% weekly gain after DCG exchanged 85,705 ZEC for about $100 million of Grayscale's ETF, a swap disclosed in an 8-K filed Tuesday. U.S. spot bitcoin funds recorded their first outflow since Sept. 1.

Crypto's overnight advance did not survive the U.S. open on Wednesday. Bitcoin carried a gain out of the Asian and European sessions, gave all of it back in the first hours of New York trading, and by midday sat within $60 of where it closed on Tuesday.

The tape is waiting on two federal price releases. August producer prices publish Thursday and consumer prices Friday, both at 8:30 a.m. ET, and they are the last scheduled inputs before a Federal Open Market Committee meeting at which prediction-market traders now favor a rate increase. Zcash is trading on its own news, after Digital Currency Group put $100 million into Grayscale's listed fund on Tuesday.

Bitcoin last changed hands at $78,591.04, down 0.1% over 24 hours and up 2.4% over seven days, after trading between $78,308.42 and $79,701.36, CoinGecko data shows. Ether was at $2,497.54, down 0.2% on the day and up 4.1% on the week, on a range of $2,472.65 to $2,521.51.

XRP fell 1.2%, Solana fell 1.3%, BNB fell 2.1% and holds a 7.8% weekly advance.

Total crypto market value stood at $2.79 trillion, up 0.04% over 24 hours, on $87.67 billion of volume, with bitcoin dominance at 56.5%. Thirty of the 123 largest non-stablecoin tokens rose and 93 fell.

"Spot has traded in very tight ranges to start this week, with the market largely in a cautionary mode ahead of the inflation data on Thursday and Friday," the derivatives trading desk of Laser Digital wrote in commentary emailed to reporters on Wednesday. "BTC is back around the high of $70K area, while ETH is holding around the mid-$2,000 area." The firm asks that the commentary be attributed to the desk rather than to an individual.

Sold At The OpenBitcoin's 24-hour high of $79,701.36 came in the overnight window, above the $79,432.20 it reached on Tuesday. The low of $78,308.42 came after the U.S. open.

It is 37.7% below the $126,080 record it set on Oct. 6, 2025.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index read 66 on Wednesday, down from 69 on Tuesday and 74 on Sept. 4, according to Alternative.me. It has read above 60 every day since Aug. 29.

DeFi total value locked was $87.82 billion, down 0.17% over 24 hours, DefiLlama data shows. Stablecoin supply was $305.17 billion, up 0.54% over seven days and 1.55% over 30 days.

DCG Swaps Zcash For SharesZcash traded at $1,284.42, up 7.2% over 24 hours, 56.3% over seven days and 152.3% over 30 days, on $1.73 billion of volume against a $21.74 billion market value. It is the tenth-largest token and the only one of the 20 biggest higher by more than 2% on the day.

The fund disclosed the buyer behind part of that move. In an 8-K filed Tuesday, the Zcash ETF reported under Item 8.01 that "DCG acquired shares of the Trust having an aggregate value of approximately $100 million through an Authorized Participant, or its AP Designee, in exchange for 85,705.32563297 ZEC tokens."

The accompanying press release says the fund's assets under management have "grown to more than $500 million" two weeks after its Aug. 25 listing on NYSE Arca, with "cumulative inflows of more than $70 million in the two weeks since launching as an ETP." It describes the buyer as DCG International Investments Ltd. and states that ZCSH "is the only ETP in the world that allows investors to access ZEC exposure."

The exhibit also confirms the "launch of ZCSH options trading on NYSE Arca earlier today." The Defiant reported on Tuesday that Grayscale had announced the options listing without naming the venue, and that no corroborating exchange notice or SEC filing was retrievable at the time. Tuesday's 8-K is that document.

The swap is an in-kind creation rather than an open-market purchase: DCG handed over tokens it already held and received fund shares. DCG said in an amended filing last month that it was in non-binding talks to acquire about 200,000 ZEC. The Defiant covered Grayscale's original conversion filing in November 2025 and the Winklevoss disclosure of Cypherpunk Technologies' Zcash treasury.

A Hike Takes The LeadPolymarket put a quarter-point increase at the Sept. 15-16 meeting at 55% and no change at 45%, on $106.5 million of volume. A quarter-point cut and a half-point increase each trade at 1% or below. The same contracts read 53% and 47% at midday, 54.5% and 45.5% at Tuesday's close, and 30.5% and 67.5% on Aug. 24.

"September appears balanced, and with Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh making clear that he is not particularly concerned about the labour market, inflation is likely to decide the meeting," the Laser Digital desk wrote. "The FOMC comes before the next PCE release, leaving PPI and CPI as the key remaining inputs."

The desk said the order of this week's releases matters. "What could make this week interesting is the PPI coming before CPI," it wrote. "Normally the market tends to look through PPI because it prints after CPI and adds relatively little new information, but this time it should carry more weight as the first read on inflation ahead of the meeting."

Options positioning has not followed spot lower, according to the same note. "Front-end risk reversals have also repriced meaningfully in favour of calls, with the move appearing at least partly flow-driven," the desk wrote.

Brent Clears The HundredBrent crude traded at $100.74 a barrel at 7:31 a.m. ET, up 2.88% from Tuesday's settlement of $97.92, on a range of $98.83 to $100.96. It last settled above $100 on July 23, and settled at $99.31 on Tuesday, its highest close since that date.

Gold futures were at $4,471.40, up 0.73%, in morning trading. S&P 500 futures were down 0.3% at 7,657.75 shortly after the open.

The 10-year Treasury par yield closed Tuesday at 4.80% and the 30-year at 5.25%, against 4.78% and 5.24% on Sept. 4, according to Treasury data. U.S. equities closed lower Tuesday, with the S&P 500 down 0.58% at 7,673.52 and the Nasdaq Composite down 0.32% at 26,421.41.

ETFs Break The StreakU.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded $46.6 million of net outflows on Tuesday, their first negative session since Sept. 1, according to Farside Investors. The three sessions before it took in $1.01 billion combined, including $730.8 million on Sept. 3. Farside's ether table shows no net flow recorded for Tuesday, after $25.9 million of inflows on Sept. 4. Wednesday's rows publish after the U.S. close.

Monday was the Labor Day holiday and produced no ETF row.

Strategy holds 845,050 BTC as mNAV rises to 1.14x, Metaplanet trades at 0.97x
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Investors seeking exposure to Bitcoin often look beyond direct purchases and instead buy shares in publicly traded Bitcoin treasury companies. However, owning shares in such firms is fundamentally different from holding Bitcoin itself.

Understanding mNAV and Company ValuationA key metric for comparing these companies is mNAV, which measures how the market values a firm relative to its Bitcoin holdings. An mNAV of 1.0x indicates that the company’s valuation matches the market value of its Bitcoin. At 1.5x, the market values the company at $1.50 for each dollar of Bitcoin it owns, while 0.8x reflects a discount.

This measure has gained prominence as companies such as Strategy and Metaplanet, which hold sizeable Bitcoin treasuries, attract investors looking for alternative ways to access Bitcoin. Coinpaper, a digital asset market analysis platform, regularly ranks these firms by the scale and valuation of their Bitcoin reserves.

The formula for mNAV is not standardized. The simplest version divides a company’s equity market capitalization by the current value of its Bitcoin holdings. Some analysts prefer a broader enterprise value approach, adding debt and preferred stock and subtracting cash before comparing to the Bitcoin treasury.

For example, BitcoinTreasuries.net uses the enterprise-value version to evaluate treasury-focused companies:

mNAV = (Market cap + debt + preferred stock − cash) ÷ value of Bitcoin holdings.

Strategy, a prominent Bitcoin treasury company, adopts its own method. The firm calculates mNAV as its share price divided by Net Bitcoin Per Share, which factors in senior claims and U.S. dollar assets. According to Strategy, this approach differs from traditional NAV accounting.

Mini dictionary: Strategy is a publicly traded company known for its significant Bitcoin holdings and innovative treasury management, often issuing shares to finance Bitcoin purchases.

Treasury Premiums, Issuances, and RisksPremiums often exist because investors view these companies as vehicles for future Bitcoin acquisitions, not just their current holdings. When a treasury firm’s shares trade above NAV, it can issue new equity at this premium to raise fresh capital and acquire more Bitcoin. If managed effectively, this process can increase the underlying Bitcoin per share for existing shareholders.

Strategy has utilized this mechanism extensively, with Coinpaper highlighting repeated equity issuances to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. This approach has helped define the company’s model over time.

CompanyBTC HoldingsAcquisition CostAvg PricemNAVStrategy845,050 BTC$63.73 billion$75,4121.14xMetaplanetN/AN/AN/A0.97xAs of September 7, Strategy reported holding approximately 845,050 BTC, acquired at an average price of $75,412 per Bitcoin, with a total cost of $63.73 billion, according to its most recent SEC filing. The company’s mNAV recently stood at about 1.14x, reflecting a slight premium to its Bitcoin NAV. Metaplanet, another listed treasury-focused firm, recently traded near 0.97x mNAV, positioning its market value close to its Bitcoin reserves.

An mNAV below 1.0x does not automatically imply a bargain. Markets may price in possible risks such as corporate debt, preferred stock, dilution, management issues, or the chance that a company might liquidate its Bitcoin holdings.

Market Fluctuations and Strategic AdjustmentsPast collapses in treasury-stock premiums have resulted in losses for shareholders, particularly when investor sentiment or capital market support declines. Coinpaper has documented episodes where Bitcoin treasury premiums evaporated during less favorable market conditions.

To navigate these fluctuations, Strategy has expanded its financial playbook beyond direct Bitcoin purchases, including the use of debt, preferred securities, and the possibility of Bitcoin sales to maintain liquidity. These evolving tactics reflect the company’s adaptive approach to Bitcoin treasury management and were further detailed in Coinpaper’s recent analyses.

Sometimes, a treasury company’s share price rises above the value of its Bitcoin. This allows it to raise capital through new equity issuance, which can increase the Bitcoin per share backing if deployed efficiently.

Block Seeks OCC Charter for Uninsured Bitcoin and Stablecoin Custody Bank
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Builders Bank would operate under direct federal supervision without taking deposits or making loans, but the application still requires OCC approval.

Block has applied to establish Builders Bank & Trust, N.A., which, if approved, would be an uninsured national trust bank under direct federal supervision, the company said on Sept. 8.

The proposed bank would provide custody and related fiduciary services, including for bitcoin and stablecoins, under the supervision of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Block separately said the charter would establish a federal framework for certain custody and related activities it already offers.

Builders Bank would not accept deposits or make loans. It would also be uninsured, limiting the proposed institution to a different model from a conventional deposit-taking lender.

The filing remains at the application stage. Block said it is subject to OCC review and approval, and that Builders Bank would not begin operating until it receives the required regulatory approvals. At the reporting cutoff, the OCC's public digital-assets table listed applications received through Aug. 19 and did not yet include Builders Bank.

Block Enters the OCC Charter PipelineThe OCC table contained 11 pending digital-asset licensing applications received between Feb. 23 and Aug. 19. That list follows the agency's conditional approval of five national trust bank applications in December 2025: new charters for Circle's First National Digital Currency Bank and Ripple, and conversions for BitGo, Fidelity Digital Assets and Paxos.

Circle said in July that it had received final OCC approval to establish its trust bank, which would provide digital-asset custody and was designed to eventually manage USDC reserves, as The Defiant reported. Block is now seeking approval for its own federally supervised trust bank, with a stated focus on custody and fiduciary services including bitcoin and stablecoins.

The Bank Policy Institute, which represents large banks, has opposed a series of earlier limited-purpose national trust applications. BPI argued that companies should not receive trust charters unless they plan to operate genuine trust companies, and warned against using the charter as a lighter regulatory route for bank-like products.

BPI's objections predate Block's application and do not assess Builders Bank. Block's next step is the OCC review: the company said Builders Bank will not commence operations unless and until it receives the required regulatory approvals.

Crypto: Iran Eases the Use of Bitcoin and USDT for Trade
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
19h05 ▪ 6 min read ▪ by Lydie M.

Summarize this article with:

Iran loosens part of its currency controls and allows more room for crypto in its international exchanges. According to the Financial Times, exporters can now use their foreign revenues to directly finance imports and resort to bitcoin or USDT for certain cross-border settlements. Nearly 9.9 billion dollars of crypto activity had already been attributed to Iran in 2025. The Iranian Central Bank has not publicly commented on these new rules.

In brief Iranian exporters have more freedom to use their foreign revenue. Bitcoin and USDT can be used for certain cross-border payments, according to the Financial Times. Four sanctioned Iranian exchanges accounted for 78% of the crypto volume attributed to the country in 2025. Crypto: Tehran gives more leeway to exporters The change first applies to currencies. Iranian companies can directly use part of their foreign revenues to finance their imports. They no longer necessarily have to sell these currencies first on the government platform at the official rate.

Crypto is among the possible channels. Bitcoin and especially USDT can be used to settle certain transactions via Iranian exchanges. This opening comes one month after Washington sanctioned Shelbit and Aban Tether, two platforms accused by the US Treasury of facilitating financial circuits linked to Iran.

This is not a general legalization of all crypto flows. Tehran is mainly seeking to more easily recover revenues generated abroad while access to international banks remains heavily restricted.

The Financial Times also reports that authorities are still investigating export revenues that have not been repatriated. The Central Bank has not responded to Cointelegraph about the details of the arrangement. This point matters: the use of Bitcoin and USDT is reported by the Financial Times, but no official detailed text from the Central Bank has yet been made public in the consulted sources.

Nearly 10 billion dollars circulated in crypto in 2025 Iran already starts from a significant base. TRM Labs estimates at 9.9 billion dollars the crypto volume attributed to the country in 2025. Nobitex, Bitpin, Wallex, and Ramzinex alone represented about 7.7 billion, or 78% of the total. The four platforms were sanctioned by the OFAC on June 2.

Nobitex dominates widely. The US Treasury estimates that the exchange processed more than half of Iranian digital asset inflows in 2025. Wallex accounted for about 12%, Bitpin 10%. Ramzinex has processed more than 2.45 billion dollars since its creation.

Connections with foreign platforms are also documented. TRM Labs says it traced 3.84 billion dollars of flows between CoinEx and sanctioned Iranian entities over more than seven years. About 2.7 billion concerns Nobitex.

The same report identifies nearly 67 million dollars from the Iranian Central Bank arriving at CoinEx addresses between June 2025 and June 2026. The movements reportedly used several blockchains and intermediate steps before reaching the exchange. CoinEx denies any business relationship with the Iranian government or local platforms.

The case goes beyond CoinEx. An investigation covered this summer by Cointribune also identified 676 million dollars of transfers between Shelbit and Binance. However, Reuters did not establish that all these funds were directly controlled by Iranian authorities. The amounts are high. The circuits are also numerous.

Washington now puts the entire Iranian crypto sector under pressure The United States has expanded its response. On August 24, the US Treasury officially added digital assets to Iranian sectors that can be subject to sanctions. The arrangement allows OFAC to target foreign individuals or companies operating in this sector or providing certain services to it.

Washington specifically cites crypto among the means used by Iran to move money outside traditional financial circuits. On the same day, the Treasury sanctioned Ivan Obukhov, a broker based in the United Arab Emirates. The administration claims he processed more than 100 million dollars in cryptocurrencies since 2023 to facilitate oil sales benefiting the IRGC Qods Force.

Sanctions had already begun to directly target exchanges. Nobitex, Wallex, Bitpin, and Ramzinex in June. Shelbit and Aban Tether in August. Bitcoin and stablecoins allow the transfer of funds without using a US correspondent bank. This does not make transactions invisible.

Public blockchains leave traces. Centralized exchanges also keep customer data, and stablecoin issuers can block certain addresses. This is especially true for USDT.

For foreign companies, the risk remains concrete. Cointribune had already detailed the exposure to sanctions of companies paying Iran in crypto, notably in maritime transport. Tehran is therefore opening its commercial circuits to digital assets more as Washington precisely expands its means to monitor them. No need to speculate further. In 2025, nearly 10 billion dollars had already circulated in the Iranian crypto ecosystem. The new rules now seek to make part of this infrastructure more useful for foreign trade.

Prosecutors allege Camilo Séptimo member killed in search for Bitcoin cold wallet
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Prosecutors in Mexico have charged two men with targeting the home of Jonathan Meléndez, keyboardist for the well-known indie band Camilo Séptimo, in a violent attack allegedly aimed at obtaining a cold wallet believed to contain millions of dollars in Bitcoin. The suspects are accused of murdering Meléndez, his pregnant wife, young daughter, and a domestic worker during the home invasion.

Targeted attack on musician’s familyAuthorities reported that the attack took place in Atizapán de Zaragoza, State of Mexico, on September 1. Meléndez, his wife Ana Paula Barragán, their three-year-old daughter Sofía, and 21-year-old domestic worker Aleyda Romero were found dead at the scene. The couple’s six-year-old son survived the incident.

Investigators stated that the suspects entered the residence with the intent to find a cold wallet, a type of secure storage device for cryptocurrencies, which they believed held “million-dollar amounts in Bitcoin.”

State prosecutors described that the suspects sought the family’s cold wallet, thinking it stored assets worth millions in Bitcoin, which led to the fatal attack.

Arrests and motives detailed by officialsOfficials arrested two men in connection with the crime. According to the prosecution, one of the men allegedly offered his accomplice 2 million pesos, approximately $118,000, as a reward for obtaining the cryptocurrency wallet during the home invasion.

State officials contend that the pursuit of high-value crypto holdings has grown increasingly dangerous, with violent tactics used by perpetrators seeking access to digital assets stored offline.

Camilo Séptimo, the band for which Meléndez played keyboards, is recognized for its fusion of alternative rock and electronic music, with a strong following across Latin America.

Rising trend in physical attacks on crypto holdersA report from blockchain analytics company Chainalysis highlighted an increase in violent crimes against cryptocurrency holders. By late June, Chainalysis had documented 46 violent attacks linked to digital assets in 2026 alone, with more than $30 million reported stolen. Home invasions accounted for 37% of these incidents, underscoring the risks faced by individuals holding significant crypto assets.

Earlier this year, two brothers from Texas pleaded guilty to a similar crime in which they held a Minnesota family at gunpoint for over eight hours, forcing the father to transfer more than $8 million in cryptocurrency.

Chainalysis reported that $30 million in crypto was stolen in the first half of 2026, with home invasions representing more than a third of all incidents targeting digital asset holders.

Such attacks demonstrate that cold wallets, while secure against online theft, cannot protect against physical threats, making personal security a growing concern for those holding large amounts of cryptocurrency assets.

Mini dictionary: Cold wallet — A cold wallet is an offline cryptocurrency storage device that holds the private keys required to access and transfer digital assets. Hardware wallets like Ledger, Trezor, and Coldcard are common examples. These wallets provide strong protection from online threats but can still be vulnerable to physical theft or attacks on the owner.

Law enforcement continues to warn digital asset holders to take additional personal security measures, especially as high-profile incidents draw further attention to the risks involved in storing substantial funds in cryptocurrencies.

Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz says XRP more likely to surpass Bitcoin by surging
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz has asserted that XRP is more likely to overtake Bitcoin in market capitalization through its own price surge rather than a decline in Bitcoin’s value. Schwartz made these remarks during a recent discussion on X Spaces, drawing rapid attention from XRP advocates and wider crypto observers.

Schwartz discusses XRP’s prospectsDuring the live X Space, moderator ILLY opened the conversation by sharing his view that XRP could one day surpass Bitcoin by market cap. Schwartz responded by highlighting the importance of understanding the underlying causes that might drive such a shift.

He addressed whether this transition would result from an increase in XRP’s price or a significant drop in Bitcoin’s value. Schwartz then clarified his perspective, noting that an independent rally in XRP presents a more plausible scenario.

It is more likely that XRP flips Bitcoin due to a surge in the price of XRP rather than the collapse of Bitcoin.

Schwartz further added, “I honestly have to say, I think XRP surging is probably more likely than not,” emphasizing his view that growth on XRP’s side would be the main factor behind any potential overtaking.

Industry expertise shapes opinionThe significance of Schwartz’s comments lies in his pivotal role as an architect of the XRP Ledger. As a key developer behind the underlying technology, his insights carry additional weight compared to broader community speculation.

In previous appearances, Schwartz argued that current XRP prices do not reflect its potential, though he avoided specifying targets or forecasts. He underlined that a scenario where XRP gains ground through active growth, rather than Bitcoin falling away, aligns more closely with how market leaders typically change position in other industries.

Examples offered during the discussion included the possibility that Bitcoin could see some setbacks as XRP closes the gap, but Schwartz continued to highlight the more likely scenario being a positive run for XRP itself. Community members reacted both with agreement and surprise at his public stance.

Community and market responseThe XRP community was quick to engage. Some participants viewed Schwartz’s comments as confirmation of long-held expectations. One commenter described the discussion as an important moment, noting the rarity of such direct statements from Schwartz.

Schwartz’s direct engagement with the question of whether XRP can overtake Bitcoin has sent a clear signal to many in the community.

Others remarked on the openness of the remarks, considering them a rare public endorsement of XRP’s long-term potential to outpace existing market leaders. Schwartz refrained from making aggressive predictions, maintaining instead that the XRP ecosystem has the foundation to mount a strong challenge in the evolving cryptocurrency landscape.

As market participants monitor technical breakout patterns and seek smarter methods to track changing sentiment, many are consolidating their workflows using privacy-focused tools. In a market where a single Fed decision or an unexpected altcoin listing can instantly transform the environment, using apps like CryptoAppsy allows traders to manage charts, set intelligent price alerts, read coin-specific news, and access macroeconomic data all in one interface, often without the need for an account.

The source and its impactDavid Schwartz’s experience spans years of direct involvement with Ripple and the design of the XRP Ledger. His willingness to publicly state that an XRP price surge remains the likeliest route to a market capitalization flip brought cautious optimism to sections of the community.

Analysts note that while many have speculated about a shift in the market cap hierarchy, such opinions from foundational figures in digital asset development tend to focus attention and spark debate across the industry. Schwartz’s remarks represent a technical vote of confidence in XRP’s future prospects, delivered by one of its core creators.

Attention Bitcoin and Ethereum Investors! Germany is Changing its System! Here are the Details
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum
CoinGecko News
Original source text
As countries around the world continue to regulate cryptocurrencies, taxation stands out as one of the most important issues.

The latest notable regulatory effort on this issue comes from Germany.

A New Era in Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Earnings! Germany, one of Europe’s largest countries, is preparing comprehensive regulations to tax gains from cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin and Ethereum.

According to BlockBeats, a draft prepared by the German Ministry of Finance plans to subject cryptocurrency gains to a flat tax of 25 percent, similar to stocks and other capital investments.

The draft legislation is not yet enacted and will be submitted to parliament for approval after a review process within the government.

One Year of Tax Exemption is Ending! Under the current system, gains made by individual investors from selling cryptocurrencies held for more than a year are exempt from tax. However, the ministry wants to abolish this exemption, and the new regulation proposes removing this exemption and classifying cryptocurrencies as capital gains.

At this point, the new system is planned to be applied to cryptocurrencies acquired on or after January 1, 2027.

The draft also envisages preserving some important advantages for investors. The current annual tax exemption limit of €1,000 ($1,170) is expected to remain in effect. Furthermore, according to the report, the draft text also includes a provision allowing crypto investment gains and losses to be offset against gains and losses from other securities such as stocks.

Coinbase and Stanford Discuss Bitcoin Quantum Resistance: No Perfect Solution Yet, Migration May Be Phased
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
PANews, September 10 – Coinbase announced that it has co-hosted a "Post-Quantum Bitcoin Workshop" at Stanford University with Stanford cryptography professor Dan Boneh and Localhost Research. The closed-door working meeting brought together Bitcoin developers, cryptography experts, researchers, institutional custodians, and hardware wallet experts, focusing on how Bitcoin can prepare in advance for the cryptographic risks posed by future quantum computing.

Participants assessed the progress of quantum computing development, the current state of post-quantum cryptography, and the applicability of different post-quantum signature schemes in Bitcoin. They also referenced Ethereum-related plans to discuss institutional custody needs, Bitcoin output types, and potential post-quantum protection solutions. Additionally, the meeting covered discussions on hardware wallet limitations, signature scheme selection, and protective measures for assets that may not be migrated in time.

Coinbase stated that it is currently impossible to accurately predict when a quantum computer capable of breaking existing cryptographic systems will emerge. Therefore, rather than predicting a specific timeline, it is more important to establish well-researched and tested response plans in advance. Participants believe that quantum computing does not yet pose an imminent crisis, but taking early action can allow sufficient time for technical research, testing, and ecosystem coordination.

Currently, multiple post-quantum security solutions have attracted attention, but no perfect solution or clear consensus exists. Different solutions involve trade-offs in security, transaction size, hardware performance, key management, and user adoption difficulty. Participants believe that Bitcoin's quantum resistance cannot rely solely on protocol upgrades; it also requires consideration of how individual users, institutional custodians, wallets, and hardware devices generate, store, back up, and migrate keys and assets.

Coinbase pointed out that Bitcoin's migration to a post-quantum security system is more likely to be an ongoing, phased process rather than a one-time event. As post-quantum cryptography continues to evolve, future solutions may undergo constant iteration. Therefore, Bitcoin needs to retain space for adopting more mature technologies while advancing security upgrades. This workshop did not attempt to determine a final technical solution but rather aimed to identify key issues and promote further research and engineering testing. The company plans to continue organizing relevant discussions among Bitcoin developers, cryptography experts, institutional custodians, and other ecosystem participants, driving the gradual transformation of post-quantum security research into fully validated practical solutions.

iPhone 18 Launch Today: Here’s How Much Bitcoin and Ethereum It Actually Costs Today
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Apple unveils its iPhone 18 lineup today, September 9, at its “Surprise and Shine” event. The Wall Street Journal reports the iPhone 18 Pro is expected to start around $1,299, with the Pro Max around $1,399 in the US, both above last year’s Pro-tier pricing. Apple hasn’t confirmed official prices yet.

What That Costs in Crypto Today

With Bitcoin trading at $79,196.62 and Ethereum at $2,500.09, an estimated $1,299 iPhone 18 Pro would run about 0.0164 BTC or 0.52 ETH. The Pro Max, at an estimated $1,399, comes to roughly 0.0177 BTC or 0.56 ETH.

Breaking a Multi-Year Trend

According to CoinGecko research tracking iPhone launch prices against BTC and ETH since 2011, the amount of crypto needed to buy each new iPhone has fallen almost every year. The iPhone 4S required a staggering 162.25 BTC back in 2011. By last year’s iPhone 17, that number had shrunk to just 0.007 BTC, an almost uninterrupted decade-and-a-half decline as Bitcoin’s price climbed. Ethereum tells the same story: an iPhone cost 876.4 ETH in 2015, falling to just 0.18 ETH for the iPhone 17 last year.

This year looks different. Bitcoin’s price today sits well below where it was at last September’s iPhone launch, while Apple appears set to raise Pro-tier pricing by $150 to $200. Put those two forces together and the iPhone 18 Pro could require noticeably more Bitcoin than the iPhone 17 Pro did a year ago, a rare reversal after years of iPhones getting steadily cheaper in crypto terms.

Still Nothing Like 2011

Even with this year’s uptick, today’s price tag remains a tiny fraction of what early Bitcoin holders once paid. The gap between 162 BTC for a 2011 iPhone and roughly 0.016 BTC for a 2026 Pro model still reflects Bitcoin’s enormous rise in value over 15 years, this year’s move is a blip on an otherwise steep decline, not a reversal of the broader trend.

What’s Actually Launching Today

Beyond pricing, today’s event is expected to headline the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, both powered by Apple’s first 2-nanometer chip, the A20 Pro, alongside Apple’s first-ever foldable iPhone. Reports suggest the standard iPhone 18 and a budget iPhone 18e won’t arrive until spring 2027, splitting Apple’s usual single-launch calendar into two release windows for the first time in years.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Fall; XRP Gains Ahead of Key Inflation Data: Analyst Notes 'Another Strong Bullish Signal' for BTC
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Leading cryptocurrencies fell on Tuesday as traders awaited key inflation data for clues on the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy.

Crypto Market Sees Selling PressureBitcoin slid below $78,000 as trading volume jumped nearly 50% in the last 24 hours. Ethereum‘s advance stalled at $2,500, while Dogecoin fell sharply following Monday’s jump.

Cryptocurrency-related stocks also fell, with Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR) and Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc. (NYSE:BMNR) closing down 4.40% and 0.80%, respectively. Strategy made no Bitcoin purchases last week

More than $250 million was liquidated in the cryptocurrency market over the past 24 hours, including $163 million in long positions, according to Coinglass data.

Bitcoin’s open interest rose 0.70% in the last 24 hours to $53.45 billion. A rise in open interest combined with a falling spot price typically signals a short buildup, meaning new sellers are actively entering the market.

Market sentiment leaned toward “Greed,” according to the Crypto Fear & Greed Index.

Top Gainers (24 Hours) 

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stands at $2.70 trillion after declining 0.36% over the past 24 hours.

Key inflation data is due this week, with the producer price index out Thursday and the consumer price index on Friday.

Traders are currently pricing in a 59% chance of a rate cut at next week’s Federal Reserve policy meeting, according to the CME FedWatch tool.

‘Strong Bullish Signal’Ali Martinez, a widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader, said Bitcoin has reclaimed its “Warm Supply Realized Price,” interpreting it as a “strong bullish signal.”

The metric tracks the average acquisition price of Bitcoin that changed hands between a week and six months ago.

Martinez highlighted that the four prior major reclaims of this level preceded strong rallies, including 74% in October 2024 and 159% in October 2023.

On-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant noted that the Market Value to Realized Value indicator remains below Bitcoin’s 365-day moving average—a level that has historically marked a transition from “repair to expansion.”

CryptoQuant said reclaiming and holding the 365-day moving average remains a bull case, while a rejection at this level would signal weak aggregate profitability, keeping BTC in repair mode.

Iran Eases Currency Rules to Boost Crypto Trade Amid US Sanctions
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Iran is loosening its strict foreign exchange rules as U.S. sanctions make normal international payments harder. The new approach allows businesses to use Bitcoin, Tether, and other digital assets for cross-border trade. 

This comes as the U.S. and other nations have frozen or blocked around $1 billion to $1.47 billion in Iranian-linked crypto assets to date.

Iran Is Turning to Bitcoin and USDTThe move comes as Iran faces severe pressure on its currency and access to international finance. The Iranian rial has fallen to more than 2 million per U.S. dollar in the open market, while inflation has climbed sharply.

Traditional correspondent banking channels have also become increasingly difficult to use under U.S. sanctions.

🚨IRAN EASES FX RULES AND TURNS TO CRYPTO!

The Financial Times said Tehran has quietly loosened foreign-exchange controls so companies can keep trading under sanctions.

Officials have been pushing firms to bring money home through several routes, including settling deals on… pic.twitter.com/qQuN8CFjYc

— Crypto Banter (@crypto_banter) September 9, 2026 That has pushed crypto into a bigger role. Roughly $10 billion worth of cryptocurrency moved through Iran in 2025, according to on-chain data cited in the reference material.

Iran also accounts for around 4.5% of global Bitcoin mining activity, according to blockchain analytics firm Elliptic.

Who Benefits Most From Iran’s Easier Crypto Rules?Iranian exporters and importers are likely to benefit the most. The Central Bank of Iran has eased controls around foreign currency, allowing exporters to bring overseas earnings back through domestic crypto exchanges.

Businesses can also use their export earnings directly to pay for imported raw materials and goods instead of first converting the money through the government-controlled foreign exchange system.

This gives businesses more freedom to move money without relying as heavily on traditional banking channels. Crypto can also make cross-border payments easier when access to international banks is limited.

Tether’s USDT could play an important role because it is tied to the U.S. dollar. For Iranian traders, this offers a more stable option than holding the rapidly weakening rial.

U.S. Sanctions Could Target the Crypto RouteThe easing comes as Washington is also increasing pressure on Iran’s digital asset sector.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has warned that digital assets could become another target under the administration’s broader “Operation Economic Outcast.” In June, the Treasury also sanctioned Nobitex, Iran’s largest crypto exchange, accusing it of helping with sanctions evasion.

This creates a difficult balance for Iran.

Crypto can provide another route for trade when banks are blocked, but greater use of digital assets could also bring more attention from U.S. regulators and increase the risk of further sanctions on exchanges, banks, and intermediaries.

Iran approves Bitcoin and USDT for trade, US seizes $344 million in April
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Iran’s central bank has officially authorized companies in the country to use Bitcoin and USDT for international trade. This move follows recent efforts by regulators to ease foreign exchange restrictions, enabling commercial entities to channel export revenues through domestic cryptocurrency platforms.

Official support and practical changesA senior business figure affiliated with government circles confirmed that the central bank no longer questions how funds are transferred, signaling an acceptance of digital assets for settling export payments. Receiving foreign income via cryptocurrency has become routine for Iranian exporters.

The banking authority has promoted the repatriation of capital held overseas, leveraging crypto platforms within Iran’s borders. This policy shift aims to support domestic companies amid ongoing economic sanctions and currency volatility.

Rising crypto activity and mining capacityDuring 2025, digital asset transactions totaling $10 billion passed through Iranian networks. Elliptic, a blockchain intelligence firm, reported that Iran accounted for about 4.5% of global Bitcoin mining capacity.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps utilizes government-subsidized electricity for mining operations, transforming energy resources into financial assets less susceptible to international restrictions. Local analysts claim this strategy helps the country counter the impact of sanctions.

Elliptic estimated Iran’s digital asset infrastructure at $7.8 billion in the past year. Blockchain addresses associated with the Revolutionary Guard accounted for nearly half of all recorded transactions in the last quarter of 2025.

Approximately $4.18 billion in digital assets left Iran through 2025, a 70% increase over the previous year. Most of these funds moved through the Nobitex platform, which has handled around $3.84 billion in transfers since 2019.

State interventions and market responsesConfidential records reviewed by Elliptic revealed that Iran’s central bank acquired $507 million in USDT. Authorities deployed these reserves to manage currency volatility and stabilize the rial, which has lost nearly 90% of its value amid ongoing sanctions and inflation.

As blockchain-based platforms reshape capital flows, investors are also adopting new infrastructure. While traditional markets rely on complex brokers, a major transition is underway as institutions and retail participants choose Web3 solutions. Platforms such as 1stepSwap allow users to hold shares of major American companies, gold, and silver directly in their crypto wallets. Tokenizing real-world assets and finding the best prices automatically, these platforms remove intermediaries from the process.

Cryptocurrency transactions totaling $10 billion moved through Iranian networks in 2025, while Elliptic calculates Iran’s share of global Bitcoin mining at 4.5%—making it a significant regional player in the sector.

US actions and sanctions escalationIn 2026, American authorities increased enforcement measures targeting Iranian crypto activity. In April, Operation Economic Fury led to the seizure of $344 million in USDT from a Tron wallet linked to Iran.

By June, the US Treasury had sanctioned four Iranian trading platforms: Nobitex, Wallex, Bitpin, and Ramzinex. Nobitex alone manages around half of Iran’s crypto transactions and reports 11 million registered users.

OFAC updated its sanctions list in July, adding four central bank-related crypto wallets holding $165 million in stablecoins. Tether disabled access to $131 million connected to these wallets after the changes.

In August, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen classified digital assets as a sanctionable sector for Iran. US officials also targeted a Ukrainian intermediary accused of facilitating over $100 million in crypto-based petroleum deals for the Revolutionary Guard.

Iran reportedly uses cryptocurrency channels not only for oil sales and military equipment payments, but also for collecting transit fees from vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Domestic data shows roughly 20,000 individuals and companies still have not returned 94 billion euros in export earnings to the country, and an additional $100 billion remains undeclared inside Iran.

US authorities continue to collaborate with blockchain analytics firms like Chainalysis and Elliptic in efforts to identify, freeze, or seize digital wallets linked to sanctioned Iranian entities. Altogether, US enforcement actions have immobilized or confiscated more than $1 billion in Iranian crypto holdings during 2026.

Iran Eases Currency Rules as Bitcoin, USDT Gain Role in Cross-Border Trade: Report
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Iran has reportedly changed its foreign-exchange framework to give companies more options for bringing export income back into the country, with the new arrangements permitting digital assets in international payments amid tighter US sanctions.

According to a Wednesday report from the Financial Times, Iranian businesses can now use Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether’s USDt (USDT) to pay overseas counterparties, with transactions processed through domestic crypto exchanges.

Exporters have also gained more control over money they earn outside Iran. Rather than sending those proceeds through the state-run exchange system and converting them at government-set rates, companies can put the funds directly toward their own import costs.

US Targets Iranian Crypto Assets and Exchanges Washington has meanwhile targeted Iranian activity in the crypto sector through measures covering both trading platforms and digital assets. In early June, the Treasury sanctioned four Iranian crypto exchanges under its “Economic Fury” campaign.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said shortly before those sanctions were unveiled that the United States had gained control of Iranian digital assets valued at approximately $1 billion.

Bessent announced another action on July 14, saying US authorities had directed the freezing of crypto worth more than $130 million in wallets connected to Iran’s central bank.

Separate blockchain research has also revealed the extent of crypto activity involving sanctioned Iranian parties. TRM Labs said in June that transactions linking CoinEx to sanctioned Iranian entities totaled more than $3.8 billion over more than seven years.

CoinEx disputed suggestions that it maintained business ties with the Iranian state or crypto trading platforms based in the country. The exchange also said it had not helped sanctioned entities obtain financing.

Iran Turns to Crypto as Sanctions Tighten Further
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Iran's central bank has reportedly eased foreign currency controls to encourage businesses to bring overseas earnings home, including through cryptocurrency, amid tightening US sanctions. This includes using Tether's USDt ($USDT) and $BTC to settle cross-border transactions through Iranian cryptocurrency exchanges, according to the Financial Times.

Under the new arrangement, exporters can fund imports with overseas earnings without first selling their foreign currency at official government rates. USDT is reportedly the most commonly used cryptocurrency for Iranian cross-border commercial payments.

A Widening Crack in Sanctions EnforcementThe shift comes as US authorities have intensified pressure on Iran's financial networks. Operation Economic Fury, the Treasury Department's sanctions campaign targeting Iran's crypto-based financial infrastructure, had resulted in cumulative seizures of approximately $1 billion in Iranian crypto assets as of late May 2026. The campaign sanctioned four Iranian crypto exchanges in early June 2026 and has included a freeze of over $130 million on wallets linked directly to Iran's central bank.

Separately, Tether froze $344 million in USDT linked to sanctioned Iranian wallets during an April 2026 enforcement action. Blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs attributed approximately $9.9 billion in cryptocurrency volume to Iran during 2025, down from roughly $11.4 billion recorded in 2024.

The CoinEx ConnectionTRM Labs said CoinEx served as a gateway for the crypto sector in Iran, having traced more than $3.84 billion in flows between the exchange and sanctioned Iranian entities over the last seven years. TRM Labs said CoinEx became the single biggest trading partner of Iran's largest crypto exchange, Nobitex, which accounted for around $2.7 billion of those flows.

CoinEx denied having any commercial relationship with Iranian exchanges or government entities, saying it has begun exiting Iran-related business. The exchange further stated that it was blacklisted by the Iranian government in 2021 and has never established an operating entity in the country.

The broader picture points to a structural shift in how sanctioned economies interact with global financial markets. TRM said the sustained volume of Iranian crypto activity reflected structural demand rather than purely speculative trading. With Tehran now formally tolerating crypto for trade settlement, the gap between sanctions policy and enforcement on-chain appears to be growing.

Why Did Iran Turn to Cryptocurrency? Details on Tether and Bitcoin
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
İran, ABD yaptırımları ve savaş nedeniyle küresel finans sisteminden uzaklaşırken ticareti sürdürebilmek için kripto paralara daha fazla yöneliyor. Ülkedeki yetkililer, ihracatçıların paralarını ülkeye geri getirmelerini kolaylaştırmak için döviz kurallarındaki denetimi gevşetti.

Bu süreçte özellikle Tether (USDT) ve Bitcoin, sınır ötesi ödemelerde daha fazla kullanılmaya başladı. Peki İran neden kriptoya ihtiyaç duyuyor?

İran Neden Kripto Kullanıyor? İranlı ihracatçıların elde ettikleri dövizi ülkeye getirerek devletin belirlediği sistem üzerinden bozdurmaları gerekiyordu. Ancak resmi kurların piyasa fiyatlarının altında kalması, bazı şirketlerin gelirlerini yurt dışında tutmasına yol açtı.

Son dönemde kuralların gevşetilmesiyle ihracatçılar, elde ettikleri gelirleri doğrudan ithalat finansmanında kullanabiliyor. Kripto para da sınır ötesi ticarette kullanılan alternatif kanallardan biri haline geldi.

İran Ticarette Neden USDT Kullanıyor? İran’daki şirketlerin işlemlerinde özellikle USDT öne çıkıyor. ABD dolarına sabitlenmeye çalışan bu stablecoin, geleneksel bankacılık sisteminin dışında sınır ötesi transferlerde kullanılabiliyor.

İranlı bir yönetici, ihracat karşılığında kripto para alınmasının artık yerleşik bir uygulama haline geldiğini söyledi. İran Merkez Bankası ise konuya ilişkin yorum yapmadı.

İran’da Ne Kadar Kripto Para Kullanılıyor? TRM Labs verilerine göre 2025 yılında İran üzerinden yaklaşık 10 milyar dolarlık kripto para hareketi gerçekleşti.

Bu rakam, kriptonun ülkede yalnızca yatırım amacıyla kullanılmadığını gösteriyor. Küresel ödeme sistemlerinden uzun süredir dışlanan İran’da kripto, ticaret ve para transferleri için alternatif bir araç haline geliyor.

ABD İran’ın Kripto Kullanımını Engelleyebilir mi? Washington ise bu kullanımı yaptırımları aşma girişimi olarak değerlendiriyor. ABD Hazine Bakanlığı, İran’ın kriptoyu yaptırımlardan kaçınmak için giderek daha fazla kullandığını belirtti.

Tether da nisan ayında İran Merkez Bankası ile bağlantılı olduğu tespit edilen cüzdanlarda 344 milyon dolarlık USDT’yi dondurdu.

Buna rağmen İran’da kripto kullanımının sürdüğü görülüyor.

İran Bitcoin Madenciliğini de Kullanıyor İran’ın kripto hamlesi yalnızca transferlerle sınırlı değil. Elliptic’e göre küresel Bitcoin madenciliğinin yaklaşık %4,5’i İran’da gerçekleşiyor.

Ülkede üretilen Bitcoin ve diğer kripto varlıklar, ithalat ödemeleri ve uluslararası ticarette kullanılabiliyor.

İran’ın kriptoya yönelmesi böylece tek bir şirketin veya yatırımcının tercihi olmaktan çıkıyor. Yaptırımlar altında çalışan bir ekonominin geleneksel finans kanallarına alternatif arayışına dönüşüyor.

Ancak ABD’nin kripto işlemlerine yönelik baskısı devam ederken, İran’ın Tether ve Bitcoin üzerinden oluşturduğu bu alternatif ödeme sistemini ne kadar süre kullanabileceği önümüzdeki dönemin asıl sorularından biri olacak.

Iran accepts USDT and Bitcoin for exports amid US sanctions
BTC Bitcoin USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Iran has started allowing exporters to receive payments in cryptocurrency, including USDT and Bitcoin, as businesses face increasing difficulty accessing traditional banking channels due to intensified US sanctions. Iranian companies can now process cross-border transactions using digital assets, with USDT emerging as the most common choice for trade payments.

USDT gains popularity in Iranian tradeMarket participants state that receiving export payments in cryptocurrency has become a normal practice among Iranian exporters, particularly as sanctions cut the nation off from conventional international financial networks. USDT, issued by Tether, is favored because its value is pegged to the US dollar, reducing the risk of wild price fluctuations during transactions.

For accounts settled in USDT, the equivalence to the dollar means a company expecting $500,000 can generally anticipate that sum will retain its value by the time it is converted. In contrast, Bitcoin’s price volatility poses a risk for international trade, where price certainty is essential. Many businesses are choosing stablecoins over more unpredictable cryptocurrencies for this reason.

By combining the global reach of blockchain technology with the stability of established currencies, stablecoins offer an advantage for firms restricted from using the dollar through normal banking systems. This practical utility has made USDT one of the leading real-world applications for cryptocurrency in cross-border commerce.

Mini dictionary: Tether (USDT) is a stablecoin, a type of cryptocurrency designed to maintain a consistent value by being pegged to a fiat currency such as the US dollar. Tether is issued by the Hong Kong-based company Tether Limited.

Limits to crypto’s reach in Iran’s economyDespite these benefits, using USDT and other cryptocurrencies does not provide complete freedom for Iranian businesses. Tether retains the authority to freeze digital wallets associated with specific addresses, and blockchain-based payments are subject to monitoring. US authorities have also acted against crypto exchanges and networks involved in sanctions evasion linked to Iran.

The country’s domestic banking network continues to function within Iran, handling local settlements, payment of wages, and daily transactions in rials. However, international bank transfers remain highly restricted, leaving a gap that digital currencies can partially address. Cryptocurrency transactions allow exporters to bypass some obstacles, enabling payments without holding accounts at international banks.

Still, crypto is not a wholesale substitute for Iran’s banking sector. Exporters require access to local banks for essential services, and many logistics partners, insurance firms, and foreign suppliers remain dependent on the existing global financial system.

Iran reportedly processed $10 billion in crypto transactions during 2025, establishing digital assets as an alternative, but not a replacement, for the core functions fulfilled by traditional banking in the national economy.

Instead, cryptocurrencies provide one supplemental channel for cross-border payments amid restricted access to international finance. Domestic banking infrastructure remains indispensable for credit, deposits, and the broader needs of the Iranian economy.

The crypto community remains divided over whether Iran can genuinely bypass financial restrictions with digital assets. Some users argue that tokenized Bitcoin could theoretically underpin not just payments but also decentralized voting systems, potentially offering new tools to citizens and businesses facing local institutional barriers.

Others highlight the limitations of relying on stablecoins like USDT, noting that Tether can freeze funds at any time. One participant pointed out that Bitcoin’s fully decentralized nature distinguishes it from tokenized forms subject to central control, giving users greater freedom in choosing which transactions to accept during periods of conflict or political pressure.

Another perspective questions whether USDT ownership alone is sufficient if counterparties are unwilling to exchange stablecoins for local currency or goods, since these exchanges still take place in the regulated, real-world economy.

A notable viewpoint emphasized that the ability to hold USDT does not guarantee unrestricted commerce, as those facilitating conversion into rials or tangible goods may remain traceable within existing regulatory frameworks.

Crypto market reaction to geopolitical developmentsMeanwhile, geopolitical tensions have not dampened demand for digital assets, with both Bitcoin and XRP seeing price increases after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced claims of a missile strike targeting Amazon’s data infrastructure in Bahrain.

The events highlight the complex role cryptocurrencies play in countries subject to international sanctions, offering both new opportunities and persistent regulatory risks for participants.

US Treasuries extended their decline after the repurchase announcement, with the market viewing the $6 billion cap as insufficient.

The U.S. Treasury Department said it will purchase between $40 billion and $60 billion in long-term government debt in the first operation of its expanded repurchase program, demonstrating Secretary Bessent’s resolve to curb the recent rise in borrowing costs. U.S. Treasuries extended their earlier decline following the announcement, indicating the program’s size fell short of some investors’ expectations. The success of the expanded purchase program remains to be seen. After the program was first announced last month, yields fell before rebounding later. The benchmark 10-year yield hit its highest level since 2023 last week. Economist Guha, a former staffer at the New York Fed, noted: “The challenge always lies in whether the impact of these interventions can persist without larger fundamental changes.” Moreover, the maximum size of the repurchase operation does not mean the Treasury will necessarily purchase that amount of Treasuries. However, in repurchases targeting long-term nominal debt, the department typically buys the full amount; since the program was relaunched in 2024, it has only failed to do so in two of 52 such operations.

The Cryptocurrency Market Started the Day on an Upward Trend!
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum SOL Solana XRP Ripple
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Kripto para piyasası güne alıcılı başladı. Toplam piyasa değeri yüzde 0,66 yükselerek 2,70 trilyon dolara ulaşırken Bitcoin, TSİ 08:45 itibarıyla yüzde 0,38 artışla 78.980 dolardan işlem gördü.

Kripto Para Fiyatları Altcoin tarafında da pozitif hava dikkat çekti. Ethereum yüzde 0,78 yükselerek 2.500 dolara çıktı. XRP yüzde 2,55 değer kazanıp 1,42 dolara ulaşırken Solana yüzde 0,88 yükselerek 104,11 dolar seviyesini gördü.

Bitcoin Ve Ethereum ETF’lerinde Para Çıkışı Neyi Gösteriyor? Fiyatlardaki yükselişe karşın spot ETF’lerde sermaye hareketleri daha temkinli bir tablo ortaya koyuyor. 8 Eylül’de ABD’deki spot Bitcoin ETF’lerinden toplam 46,65 milyon dolarlık net çıkış gerçekleşti.

Ethereum ETF’leri de aynı gün 24,29 milyon dolarlık net fon çıkışı yaşadı. Bu durum, kripto para piyasasındaki kısa vadeli yükselişe rağmen kurumsal yatırımcı akışlarının henüz güçlü bir alım sinyali vermediğini gösteriyor.

Altcoin ETF’lerinde ise yönler birbirinden ayrıldı. XRP ETF’leri 1,55 milyon dolar, HBAR ETF’leri ise 431,18 bin dolar net giriş aldı. Buna karşılık HYPE ETF’lerinden 12,96 milyon dolar, Solana ETF’lerinden ise 667,72 bin dolar çıktı.

DOGE, BNB, LINK, LTC, AVAX ve DOT ETF’lerinde ise 8 Eylül’de herhangi bir fon akışı görülmedi.

Petrol Ve Jeopolitik Riskler Neden Önemli? Kripto para piyasası yalnızca dijital varlık haberlerinden etkilenmiyor. Brent petrolün varil fiyatının 100 dolara yaklaşması, küresel enflasyon beklentilerini yeniden gündeme taşıyor.

Kharg Adası çevresinde ABD’nin İran tankerlerine yönelik saldırılarının ardından gerçekleşen füze misillemesi ve Husilerin Suudi Arabistan’ın rafineri kapasitesini hedef alan saldırıları enerji piyasalarındaki jeopolitik riskleri artırdı.

Petrol fiyatlarındaki yükseliş, dünya genelinde enflasyon baskısının yeniden güçlenebileceği endişesini besliyor. Bu nedenle yatırımcılar para politikasının geleceğine ilişkin beklentilerini de yeniden şekillendiriyor.

Fed Faiz Beklentisi Kripto Piyasasını Nasıl Etkileyebilir? ABD tahvil piyasasındaki yüksek getiriler de riskli varlıklar üzerinde baskı oluşturabilecek unsurlar arasında yer alıyor. 10 yıllık ABD Hazine tahvilinin getirisi yüzde 4,8 civarında seyrederken iki yıllık tahvil getirisi yüzde 4,3’ün üzerinde bulunuyor.

Yüksek tahvil faizleri, yatırımcıların sermaye dağılımını yeniden değerlendirmesine neden oluyor. Piyasa şu anda Fed’in gelecek hafta faiz artırma ihtimalini yaklaşık yüzde 60 seviyesinde fiyatlıyor.

Wintermute OTC trader’ı Jasper De Maere, piyasanın giderek kriptoya özgü gelişmelerden çok faiz oranlarına odaklandığını belirtiyor. De Maere, 15-16 Eylül’deki FOMC toplantısına kadar açıklanacak makroekonomik verilerin volatiliteyi artırabileceğini ve Bitcoin açısından 75.000 ile 82.000 dolar seviyelerinin önemini koruduğunu ifade ediyor.

ÜFE Ve TÜFE Bitcoin İçin Hangi Sinyali Verecek? Fed toplantısı öncesindeki en kritik verilerden ikisini ABD’nin üretici ve tüketici enflasyonu oluşturuyor. Perşembe günü Üretici Fiyat Endeksi (ÜFE), cuma günü ise Tüketici Fiyat Endeksi (TÜFE) açıklanacak.

Piyasalar çekirdek enflasyonun yüzde 2,4 seviyesine gerilemesini bekliyor. Açıklanacak rakamlar, 15-16 Eylül’deki FOMC toplantısı öncesinde Fed’in faiz politikasına yönelik beklentileri doğrudan etkileyebilir.

Dolayısıyla Bitcoin’in 79.000 dolar çevresindeki hareketi yalnızca teknik göstergelerle açıklanamayabilir. ETF akışları, petrol fiyatları, tahvil getirileri ve enflasyon verileri birlikte değerlendirildiğinde daha kapsamlı bir piyasa analizi ortaya çıkıyor.

Bu içerik kesinlikle yatırım tavsiyesi niteliği taşımamaktadır. Piyasalar yüksek risk içermektedir ve yatırım kararlarınızı almadan önce kendi araştırmanızı yapmanız önemlidir.

Bitcoin Is Rebounding: The Real Surprise Came from This Altcoin!
BTC Bitcoin ZEC Zcash
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin fiyatı, 77.666 dolara kadar gerilemesinin ardından alıcıların yeniden devreye girmesiyle 79.000 dolar seviyesine doğru toparlandı. Lider kripto para birimi kısa süreli satış baskısını büyük ölçüde telafi ederken, yatırımcıların gözü yaklaşan ABD enflasyon verileri ve Fed faiz kararına çevrildi. Kripto para piyasasında Bitcoin yatay bir görünüm sergilerken, altcoin tarafında Zcash güçlü performansıyla öne çıktı. Haftalık bazda yaklaşık yüzde 43 değer kazanan ZEC, Grayscale’in 500 milyon doları aşan Zcash ETF’sine yönelik artan ilgiyle birlikte yatırımcıların odağına yerleşti.

Bitcoin 77.666 Dolardan Güçlü Tepki Aldı Bitcoin, Salı günü satış baskısının artmasıyla 78.000 doların altına gerileyerek 77.666 doları gördü. Ancak düşüş kalıcı olmadı. Asya işlem saatlerinde alıcıların yeniden piyasaya girmesiyle BTC fiyatı yaklaşık 78.900 dolara kadar toparlandı. Bitcoin’in 24 saatlik performansı büyük ölçüde yatay kalırken, haftalık yükselişi yüzde 2’nin altında gerçekleşti. Piyasada özellikle 75.000 ve 82.000 dolar seviyeleri, yaklaşan Fed faiz kararı öncesinde Bitcoin için kritik bölgeler olarak takip ediliyor.

İlginizi Çekebilir: Hangi Altcoinler 100 Kat Yükselebilir?

Bitcoin’de sınırlı hareket görülürken Zcash cephesindeki yükseliş dikkat çekti. Grayscale’in ZCSH koduyla işlem gören Zcash ETF’sinin büyüklüğü, NYSE Arca’da listelenmesinden yaklaşık iki hafta sonra 500 milyon doların üzerine çıktı. Grayscale verilerine göre fon, DCG International Investments tarafından gerçekleştirilen 100 milyon dolarlık yatırımın yanı sıra 70 milyon doların üzerinde giriş aldı. Fonun 550.000’den fazla ZEC tuttuğu belirtilirken, bu miktar yaklaşık 16,9 milyonluk dolaşımdaki Zcash arzının yüzde 3’üne karşılık geliyor. ZEC fiyatı 1.180 doların üzerinde işlem görürken günlük bazda yüzde 4’ün üzerinde değer kazandı. Haftalık yükselişin yaklaşık yüzde 43’e ulaşması, Zcash’i kripto piyasasının en fazla dikkat çeken varlıklarından biri haline getirdi.

Fed Kararı Öncesi Bitcoin İçin Kritik Seviyeler Kripto piyasasının yönü yalnızca ETF girişleriyle değil, ABD’den gelecek makroekonomik verilerle de şekillenebilir. Yatırımcıların odağında PPI, CPI ve 15-16 Eylül tarihlerindeki FOMC toplantısı bulunuyor. Wintermute OTC traderı Jasper De Maere, piyasadaki fiyatlamanın giderek kriptoya özgü gelişmelerden ziyade faiz oranlarına bağlı hale geldiğini belirterek şu değerlendirmeyi yaptı:

“Kayıt artık kriptoya özgü bir gelişmeden ziyade faiz oranlarına göre şekilleniyor. Haftanın sonuna doğru daha fazla volatilite bekliyoruz. 75.000 ve 82.000 dolar, FOMC toplantısına girerken takip edilen seviyeler olmaya devam ediyor.”

Bitcoin ve Zcash İçin Bundan Sonra Ne Olabilir? Bitcoin’in 77.666 dolardan hızlı şekilde toparlanması, 75.000 dolar bölgesinin üzerinde alıcıların hâlâ aktif olduğunu gösteriyor. Bununla birlikte 79.000 ve ardından 82.000 dolar seviyelerinin aşılması, BTC’de yükseliş momentumunun yeniden güç kazanması açısından önemli olabilir. Zcash tarafında ise ETF’ye yönelik güçlü sermaye girişleri ve fonun dolaşımdaki ZEC arzının önemli bir bölümünü bünyesine katması fiyat üzerinde takip edilmesi gereken bir faktör oluşturuyor. Önümüzdeki süreçte Bitcoin fiyatı, Zcash ETF girişleri, ABD enflasyon verileri ve Fed faiz kararı kripto piyasasının yönünü belirleyebilecek başlıca gelişmeler olacak.

Zcash ETF Launch Stabilizing the Markets as BTC Drops Below $79K
BTC Bitcoin ZEC Zcash
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin last traded at $78,900, up +0.5% today (September 9), after tumbling to lows near $77,600 in the prior session, before reclaiming $79,000 and then losing that key level again. The rebound came as renewed interest in crypto exchange-traded products, particularly Grayscale’s newly launched spot Zcash ETF, helped stabilize sentiment across crypto markets.

Bitcoin still sits well below the $ 82,000-plus level it touched the previous week, before stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs data reversed those gains.

Here is the tension running through this move: crypto-product demand is doing real work to support prices, but it is not the only force in play. Federal Reserve rate-hike expectations and oil prices near $100 a barrel are pulling in the opposite direction, and neither side has won out yet.

— BSCN (@BSCNews) September 8, 2026

What a Spot Zcash ETF Actually Adds Grayscale’s Zcash ETF, trading under the ticker ZCSH, is described in the primary reporting as the first exchange-traded product offering spot exposure to Zcash, meaning the fund holds the underlying ZEC token directly rather than derivatives or futures contracts tied to it.

That structure lets investors gain exposure to Zcash through a standard brokerage account, without needing a crypto wallet or exchange account.

The practical effect is expanded institutional access to a token that previously required more hands-on custody arrangements.

That’s the same basic mechanic driving renewed altcoin ETF inflows more broadly this year: regulated wrappers lowering the friction for traditional capital to access crypto assets.

Zcash ETF Demand Versus Macro Pressure Grayscale’s Zcash ETF surpassed $500M in assets just two weeks after its August 25 debut on NYSE Arca, coinciding with Bitcoin’s rebound from $77,600.

However, traders are increasingly betting on a Fed rate hike at its Sept. 15-16 meeting, spurred by strong employment data and inflation concerns, with a 58% probability of a hike and UBS forecasting two 25-basis-point increases this year.

Additionally, Brent crude oil prices rose to $99.68 per barrel amid escalating Middle East tensions, which could contribute to renewed inflation. Upcoming US producer-price and consumer-price data will be crucial in determining whether the likelihood of a September rate hike strengthens or weakens.

— Crypto Rover (@cryptorover) September 9, 2026

As the Zcash ETF props up the SEC and the broader market, three paths look plausible for BTC, each tied to the same inflation data due this week.

In the bull case, sustained exchange-traded-product interest paired with benign producer and consumer-price prints could let Bitcoin push back toward the above-$82,000 area it held last week, a scenario recent technical analysis around Bitcoin’s $77K support also flags as within reach.

In the base case, Bitcoin simply holds around the $79,000 mark while traders wait out Thursday’s and Friday’s inflation releases before committing further.

In the bear case, a hotter-than-expected inflation print, a further oil spike, or firming Fed-hike odds could send Bitcoin back toward the $77,600 low it just bounced from.

US Treasuries extended their decline after the repurchase announcement, with the market viewing the $6 billion cap as insufficient.

The U.S. Treasury Department said it will purchase between $40 billion and $60 billion in long-term government debt in the first operation of its expanded repurchase program, demonstrating Secretary Bessent’s resolve to curb the recent rise in borrowing costs. U.S. Treasuries extended their earlier decline following the announcement, indicating the program’s size fell short of some investors’ expectations. The success of the expanded purchase program remains to be seen. After the program was first announced last month, yields fell before rebounding later. The benchmark 10-year yield hit its highest level since 2023 last week. Economist Guha, a former staffer at the New York Fed, noted: “The challenge always lies in whether the impact of these interventions can persist without larger fundamental changes.” Moreover, the maximum size of the repurchase operation does not mean the Treasury will necessarily purchase that amount of Treasuries. However, in repurchases targeting long-term nominal debt, the department typically buys the full amount; since the program was relaunched in 2024, it has only failed to do so in two of 52 such operations.

NEXO: Bitcoin and gold: It's complicated and about to be tested
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
In this patch of your weekly Dispatch:The BTC-gold correlationG20 crypto regulationCPI before FOMCMarket cast

BTC: Momentum cools as weekly resistance holdsBitcoin's weekly chart remains capped below the 50-period SMA, which continues to prove a strong resistance on the way up. The RSI, a momentum oscillator, is neutral, and the Stochastic, another momentum oscillator, sits in overbought territory, with the coming weeks likely to show whether that momentum is starting to fade. The MACD, a trend and momentum indicator, keeps its histogram deep in positive territory.

The daily chart has entered a brief consolidation, trading range-bound with price sitting on the middle Bollinger Band, a volatility-based indicator, which now acts as dynamic support. Both the RSI and Stochastic are falling, and the MACD histogram has slipped slightly below the zero line, a sign momentum is turning more cautious on this timeframe.

Key levels to watch: on the downside, immediate support sits around $77,000, with the next level near $75,000 — the daily middle Bollinger Band also lends dynamic support in this zone. To the upside, resistance comes in around $80,000, followed by $82,000, with the weekly 50-period SMA also acting as dynamic resistance along the way.

The big idea

Is Bitcoin becoming the higher-beta gold trade?Bitcoin is beginning to trade on the forces that move gold – a $40 trillion debt load, dollar weakness, currency debasement – without inheriting gold's sensitivity to interest rates.If that holds, this dynamic gives market watchers two lenses on the same macro thesis: gold as the slower-moving anchor, Bitcoin as the higher-beta expression of it.

The upside is a function of scale. Gold's market is worth roughly $31 trillion; Bitcoin's is closer to $1.6 trillion. A modest shift in how investors divide their scarce-asset exposure lands far more forcefully on the smaller asset. August offered the clearest evidence yet, and every catalyst behind it was domestic. Washington tests the thesis next week.

The fiscal arithmetic that started it: Federal debt crossed $40 trillion in August, five months after passing $39 trillion. Net interest reached $628 billion in the first seven months of FY2026, more than the $588 billion spent on Medicare and more than defense. As long-dated yields climbed, with the 30-year above 5.2%, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stepped up purchases of longer-dated debt. Markets read that as a signal about how a $40 trillion obligation eventually gets carried. The dollar weakened. Gold added roughly 5% over the following week; Bitcoin added 22.4%, its largest weekly gain since March 2024, as US equities fell.

The BTC-Gold correlation says something specific: Bitcoin's 90-day correlation with gold sits near 0.59, its highest since 2020, while its correlation with the Nasdaq 100 has dropped to roughly 0.33 from above 0.60 in January. The more telling figure: gold's 90-day correlation with the US 10-year yield is -0.41, while Bitcoin's is barely negative at all. For an asset that has spent most of its life trading like duration-sensitive technology exposure, that is the consequential finding. BlackRock's Robbie Mitchnick has framed the same rally as Bitcoin's risk-off narrative reasserting itself – a fiscal hedge rather than risk appetite.

The signal: US spot Bitcoin ETFs took in roughly $3.8 billion over three weeks, their strongest stretch of 2026, including a single day of $731 million on September 3, the largest since January. Two qualifications: year-to-date flows remain around $1 billion negative after heavy first-half redemptions, and BlackRock's IBIT absorbed close to 70% of last week's total.

Bitcoin's 50-day moving average crossed above its 200-day this week, the same golden cross Ether produced recently. Only three of twelve prior instances held for a full year. Meanwhile $83,000 has held as resistance, and holders moved into net selling for the first time since early June.

Washington decides on September 16: Thursday's inflation data determines whether a rate increase stays live; hike odds have held near 58% since Warsh's Jackson Hole address. Tuesday, September 15, at 2:15pm ET, the Senate votes on cloture on the motion to proceed to the CLARITY Act – Republicans hold 53 seats, so at least seven Democratic or independent votes are needed for 60, and Polymarket puts 2026 enactment near 18%. Wednesday, September 16, at 2:00pm ET, the Fed announces, with a fresh dot plot.

September 16 is the clearer test. A hard asset less tethered to yields than gold should, in theory, handle a rate increase differently than a high-beta tech trade would — Wednesday's reaction should offer an early read on whether that's holding up.

TradFi trends

G20 sees crypto rules as a path to growthGlobal regulators don't usually rush to bless a new asset class. This time, they at least agreed to try.

Finance ministers and central bank governors from the G20 pledged to build clearer rules for digital assets, calling the innovation "broad-based economic growth" potential worth supporting rather than blocking. The statement, issued after a two-day meeting in Asheville, North Carolina, commits members to regulatory frameworks that preserve financial stability while establishing "clear pathways" for digital asset innovation. Officials also flagged upcoming Financial Stability Board findings on the cross-border risks of global stablecoin arrangements, and reaffirmed a push to expand operating hours for large-value payment systems. Several G20 members – including the US, EU, and Japan – already have frameworks in place; this is a commitment for the rest of the group to catch up, not a new policy itself.

Macroeconomic roundup

The macro data stack before the FedLast week's payrolls report blew past forecasts – 162,000 against expectations near 53,000, pointing to an economy strong enough for the Fed to keep holding the line on inflation, which is why bitcoin fell from $81,300 to $78,700 within hours. Yet September hike odds sit at 58%, almost exactly where they stood before the data landed. This week's inflation prints, not last week's jobs number, are what actually decide the Fed's next move.

10-Year Note Auction (Sept 9): A direct test of demand for long-dated government debt. Weak demand feeds the fiscal-stress narrative in this issue's lead; strong demand eases it.

Producer Price Index & Jobless Claims (Sept 10): The last data before Friday's headline release.

Consumer Price Index (Sept 11): The last inflation print before the Fed meets September 16. Hot pushes hike odds toward two-thirds; soft holds the current pricing.

CME FedWatch puts September hike odds at 58%, barely moved since before last week's jobs report. Friday's CPI is what actually changes that, and helps decide whether bitcoin's rally alongside gold is a coincidence or a pattern.

The week's most interesting data story

Reversal of the ETF moneyUS spot bitcoin ETFs just posted their strongest stretch of the year: $986.9 million last week, a third straight week of inflows, building on a $3.52 billion August that was the category's best month since September 2025. The single busiest day, $730.9 million on September 3, was the largest since mid-January. Turnover is quieter, though — daily trading volume has settled near $3 billion, below the activity that accompanied earlier expansionary phases. Worth watching rather than worrying about: inflows this concentrated in a handful of headline-driven days have, at times, marked short-lived peaks rather than sustained trends.

The numbers

The week’s most interesting numbers$218.4 million – Net inflows into US spot ether ETFs last week, a third straight positive week, part of the category's best August since 2025.

9% – Dogecoin's seven-day gain as of Tuesday, one of the strongest weekly moves among major crypto assets even as bitcoin cooled.

$81,700 – Bitcoin's intraday high last Thursday, reached after Fed Governor Waller signaled he's open to holding rates steady if inflation keeps cooling.

4.9% – Share of Ethereum's supply now held by Bitmine, after adding 28,086 ETH last week to reach 5,929,198 tokens worth $14.8 billion.

Bitcoin trades above $78,800, analyst sees $196,000 in 2029 after potential $40,000 bottom
BTC Bitcoin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Bitcoin price has shown signs of recovery, moving above a key on-chain cost basis despite lingering concerns from short-term technical indicators.

Analysts assess BTC recovery and future roadmapAt the latest available data, Bitcoin is priced near $78,856, representing a daily gain of 0.53%. Trading volume stands at almost $146 billion, and the market capitalization is close to $1.59 trillion as BTC maintains its dominant position among cryptocurrencies.

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez recently highlighted Bitcoin’s return to its “warm supply realized price.” This metric tracks the average acquisition price for BTC controlled by holders who bought their coins between one week and six months ago, offering insights into the mid-term investor landscape.

Historically, recoveries above the warm supply realized price have preceded notable rebounds. For example, in January 2023, after such recovery, Bitcoin climbed 69%. A similar move in October 2023 was followed by a 159% increase. More recent recoveries in October 2024 and April 2025 corresponded with rallies of 74% and 34%, respectively.

Previous instances of Bitcoin regaining its warm supply realized price were followed by significant rallies, but there is no certainty these trends will repeat according to analysts monitoring market history.

However, analysts have stressed that past performance is not a guarantee of future gains. The technical backdrop and broader market conditions remain influential factors for upcoming moves.

Another market analyst, Klarck, has taken a more cautious long-term approach. In a recent report published via KuCoin, Klarck outlined a scenario in which Bitcoin could fall from $69,000 to a cycle bottom near $40,000 before another significant bull run emerges. His forecast sets a long-term price target of $196,000 for 2029.

Klarck also referenced his earlier projections for the 2025 cycle, anticipating the next peak between $83,000 and $60,000.

Mini dictionary: KuCoin, a global cryptocurrency exchange known for its wide range of trading pairs and active analyst community, frequently publishes market updates and research from independent traders and researchers like Klarck.

Klarck’s roadmap envisions a period of downward movement before the next major uptrend: “$69K → $40K (Cycle Bottom) → New Bull Cycle → $196K by 2029. The final flush is closer than most traders realize…”.

Technical analysis and market levelsOn the technical front, Bitcoin’s price has reclaimed a position above the middle line of the Bollinger Bands, currently at $78,729. The upper band stands around $80,907, while the lower band is near $76,551. Movement above the middle band typically signals buyers may attempt to test the higher resistance level.

IndicatorCurrent LevelBTC Price$78,856Bollinger Band (Upper)$80,907Bollinger Band (Mid)$78,729Bollinger Band (Lower)$76,551MACD-452.41MACD Line2,676.23Signal Line3,128.65The MACD remains in negative territory at -452.41, with its primary line at 2,676.23 below the signal line of 3,128.65, highlighting persistent bearish momentum. A bullish crossover in these indicators could shift momentum in favor of buyers.

The short-term resistance zone lies between $80,000 and $81,000. A strong breakout above this range may encourage renewed optimism and further advances, while a drop below $78,700 could test the support near the lower Bollinger Band at $76,551.

Analysts are also monitoring the $69,000 level, cited as a critical threshold for a deeper bearish phase. Holding above this level would strengthen the case for continued recovery, while a loss might indicate an extended period of correction.

Despite the latest positive move and signals of strength above key price bands, traders are watching for confirmation above $80,000 before speculating on a sustained uptrend. Previous warm supply realized price recoveries have often preceded rallies, but there is no assurance this pattern will repeat in the current cycle.

Which Altcoins Could Rise 100-Fold?
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum LTC Litecoin UNI Uniswap ZEC Zcash
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Kripto para piyasasında geçmiş yıllarda görülen 100 katlık altcoin yükselişlerinin sona erip ermediği yeniden tartışılıyor. CoinMarketCap Araştırma Başkanı Alice Liu’ya göre üç haneli getiriler hala mümkün ancak fırsatlar artık piyasanın farklı alanlarında ortaya çıkıyor. Özellikle memecoinler ve yeni ekosistemlerdeki tokenlerin hızlı yükselişlerine dikkat çeken Liu, güçlü temellere sahip projelerde ise 10 ila 20 katlık potansiyelin hala yakalanabileceğini düşünüyor.

Memecoinlerde 100 Kat Yükseliş Hala Mümkün mü? Alice Liu, yüksek getirilerin tamamen ortadan kalkmadığını ancak yatırımcıların doğru piyasa trendlerini erken yakalaması gerektiğini belirtti. Liu, “Hala devam ediyorlar. Doğru partilere katılmamız gerekiyor” ifadelerini kullandı. Özellikle Justin Sun ile bağlantılı memecoinler ve Robinhood Chain üzerinde geliştirilen tokenlerdeki hareketliliğe dikkat çeken Liu, memecoin piyasasında sermayenin oldukça hızlı hareket ettiğini söyledi. Bununla birlikte güçlü temellere sahip daha köklü altcoinlerde 100 kat yerine 10 veya 20 katlık yükselişlerin daha gerçekçi olabileceğini ifade etti.

İlginizi Çekebilir: Bitcoin’de Dengeleri Değiştirecek İki Faktör!

CoinMarketCap Altcoin Sezonu Endeksi mevcut piyasanın henüz tam anlamıyla bir altcoin sezonuna girmediğini gösteriyor. Endeks, stablecoinler hariç en büyük 100 kripto paranın son 90 günlük performansını Bitcoin ile karşılaştırıyor.

Endekste öne çıkan seviyeler şöyle:

75 ve üzeri: Piyasanın güçlü bir altcoin sezonuna girdiğine işaret ediyor. 25 ve altı: Bitcoin’in piyasadaki hakimiyetinin güçlü olduğunu gösteriyor. Mevcut seviye 36: Altcoinlerin Bitcoin’in gölgesinden çıkmaya başladığı ancak henüz geniş çaplı bir altcoin sezonunun oluşmadığı anlamına geliyor. Liu’ya göre son dönemde tek bir altcoin rallisinden ziyade farklı anlatılar ve sektörler arasında hızlı sermaye geçişleri yaşanıyor.

Hangi Altcoinler Öne Çıkıyor? Son 90 günlük performansa bakıldığında launchpad projeleri ve yeni ekosistem tokenlerinin yatırımcı ilgisini güçlü şekilde çektiği görülüyor. Liu’ya göre özellikle Robinhood Chain üzerinde geliştirilen PONS, son dönemin öne çıkan projeleri arasında yer alırken Pump.fun da güçlü performans gösteren platformlardan biri oldu. Bu hareketlilik, yatırımcıların yeni anlatılara ve yüksek büyüme potansiyeli taşıyan projelere yönelmeye devam ettiğini gösteriyor.

Ancak sermaye akışı yalnızca yeni tokenler ve memecoinlerle sınırlı değil. Zcash ve Litecoin gibi daha köklü kripto paraların yanı sıra Uniswap ve Curve gibi DeFi projeleri de yatırımcıların radarında bulunuyor. Farklı kategorilerdeki projelerin aynı dönemde güç kazanması, piyasadaki sermayenin tek bir alanda yoğunlaşmak yerine farklı kripto sektörleri arasında hareket ettiğine işaret ediyor. Liu’ya göre bu hızlı rotasyon, olası bir altcoin sezonunda hangi projelerin öne çıkacağını belirleyebilecek önemli faktörlerden biri olabilir.

Altcoin Sezonu Başlayabilir mi? Liu’ya göre geniş çaplı bir altcoin rallisinin başlaması için Bitcoin’in mutlaka yeni bir tüm zamanların en yüksek seviyesine ulaşması veya 100.000 doları aşması gerekmiyor. Asıl önemli faktör Bitcoin’in güçlü ve istikrarlı bir yükseliş sergilemesi. Bitcoin’in 70.000 veya 80.000 dolar gibi önemli seviyeleri aşarak istikrar kazanması, piyasadaki likiditeyi ve yatırımcı güvenini artırabilir. Tarihsel olarak sermaye daha sonra Ethereum ve DeFi projelerine, ardından daha riskli altcoinler ve memecoinlere doğru hareket edebiliyor. CoinMarketCap Araştırma Başkanı Alice Liu, altcoinlerde büyük kazanç fırsatlarının tamamen ortadan kalkmadığını düşünüyor. Ancak Altcoin Sezonu Endeksi’nin 36 seviyesinde olması, piyasanın henüz geniş çaplı bir altcoin rallisine girmediğini gösteriyor. Bitcoin’in güçlü görünümünü koruması ve sermayenin altcoinlere yayılması halinde yeni fırsatlar ortaya çıkabilir.

Are Altcoins Really Surpassing Bitcoin? The Data Came as a Surprise
ADA Cardano AVAX Avalanche BNB BNB BTC Bitcoin DOGE Dogecoin ETH Ethereum LINK Chainlink SOL Solana XRP Ripple
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Altcoinlerin son dönemde Bitcoin’den daha iyi performans gösterdiği yönündeki yorumlar kripto piyasasında yeniden gündemde. Ancak bir analistin yaptığı basit karşılaştırma, bu görüşün tüm piyasa için geçerli olmayabileceğini ortaya koyuyor.

VirtualBacon adıyla bilinen trader Denis Liu, Bitcoin’in 22 Ağustos ve 9 Eylül’de neredeyse aynı seviyede olduğu iki günü karşılaştırdı. BTC bu iki tarihte sırasıyla 78.313 ve 78.440 dolar seviyesindeydi.

Peki Bitcoin yaklaşık aynı yerdeyken altcoinler ne yaptı?

Bitcoin Aynı Yerdeyken Altcoinler Ne Kazandı? Liu’nun karşılaştırmasına göre büyük altcoinlerin çoğu Bitcoin’deki hareketsizliğe rağmen güçlü bir ayrışma göstermedi.

Ethereum %1, XRP %2, Dogecoin %2, Tron %1 ve Cardano %3 gerilerken, büyük altcoinler arasındaki istisnalardan biri Avalanche oldu ve %2 yükseldi.

Liu’ya göre dokuz büyük altcoinin altısı, 22 Ağustos’taki seviyelerine yalnızca birkaç puan uzaklıkta kaldı. Bu da Bitcoin yükseldiğinde altcoinlerin de hareket ettiğini, ancak BTC yatay kaldığında bu kazançların önemli bölümünün geri verildiğini gösteriyor.

Buradaki temel soru ise şu: Altcoinler gerçekten Bitcoin‘i geride mi bırakıyor, yoksa yalnızca Bitcoin’in hareketlerini daha sert mi takip ediyor?

Hangi Altcoinler Bitcoin’den Daha İyi Performans Gösterdi? Karşılaştırmada tamamen ayrışan coinler de vardı.

Solana iki tarih arasındaki dönemde %10, BNB %9 ve Chainlink %5 yükseldi.

Ancak Liu, bu hareketlerin başka bir sorunu beraberinde getirdiğini düşünüyor. Bir coin yükselmeye başladıktan sonra hikâyesinin piyasada yaygın şekilde konuşulmasını beklemek, yatırımcının hareketin önemli bölümünü kaçırmasına neden olabilir.

Bu nedenle trader, daha güçlü performans gösteren altcoinleri takip etmek yerine Bitcoin’i elinde tutmayı tercih ettiğini söyledi.

Liu’nun yaklaşımı, altcoin rallisinin tamamını reddetmiyor. Asıl itirazı, birkaç güçlü performansın bütün piyasaya mal edilmesine.

Bitcoin’den sadece daha sert hareket eden bir coin, yine de Bitcoin’i takip ediyor.”

— VirtualBacon

“Altcoinler Bitcoin’i Geçiyor” Görüşü Neye Dayanıyor? Piyasada bunun tam tersini savunan analistler de bulunuyor.

Matthew Hyland, 100’den fazla büyük altcoinin farklı zaman dilimlerinde Bitcoin’den daha iyi performans gösterdiğini öne sürüyor.

Hyland, temmuz ayında yayımladığı değerlendirmesinde makro risk göstergelerinin 2016-2017 ve 2020-2021 dönemlerine benzer şekilde olumlu bir yapıya dönüştüğünü savunmuştu.

Analist ayrıca Total 2, Total 3 ve OTHERS gibi altcoin piyasasının genel performansını izleyen göstergelerin uzun vadeli düşüş trendlerini kırdığını belirtiyor.

Altcoin Sezonu Gerçekten Başladı mı? Hyland’in görüşünü destekleyen bir başka gelişme de vadeli işlem piyasasında yaşandı. Altcoin sürekli vadeli işlem sözleşmelerindeki açık pozisyon miktarı, Aralık 2024’ten bu yana ilk kez Bitcoin’in üzerindeki seviyeye çıktı.

Hyland bu gelişmeleri, şimdiye kadarki en büyük altcoin yükselişlerinden birinin hazırlığı olarak yorumluyor.

Ancak VirtualBacon’ın yaptığı fiyat karşılaştırması başka bir şey söylüyor: Bitcoin yaklaşık iki buçuk hafta boyunca aynı seviyelerde kalırken piyasanın en büyük altcoinlerinin çoğu belirgin bir şekilde ilerlemedi.

Dolayısıyla iki görüş aslında tamamen aynı soruya cevap vermiyor. Hyland gelecekte oluşabilecek daha geniş bir altcoin hareketine dikkat çekerken, Liu mevcut fiyat performansına bakarak bunun henüz piyasaya genellenemeyeceğini savunuyor.

Altcoinlerde Asıl Hareket Nerede? Veriler, “altcoinler Bitcoin’i geçiyor” ifadesinin şu aşamada bütün piyasayı kapsayan tek bir hikâye olmadığını gösteriyor.

Solana, BNB ve Chainlink gibi bazı altcoinler belirgin şekilde yükselirken büyük bölümün Bitcoin’e kıyasla sınırlı hareket ettiği görülüyor.

Bu nedenle önümüzdeki dönemde asıl izlenecek konu, birkaç altcoinin yükselmeye devam etmesi değil, bu performansın piyasanın geneline yayılıp yayılmayacağı olacak.

Bu içerik genel piyasa verilerine dayanır ve yatırım tavsiyesi değildir. Kendi araştırmanızı yapmanızı öneririz.

DCENT Unveils New Brand Identity Eight Years After Its Launch, Expanding Beyond Digital Asset Storage
BTC Bitcoin ETH Ethereum SOL Solana XLM Stellar Lumens XRP Ripple
CoinGecko News
Original source text
South Korea-based digital asset wallet company IoTrust, led by CEO Sangsu Baek, unveiled a new brand identity for DCENT on September 8, marking the first major rebranding since the brand was launched eight years ago.

As part of the rebranding, the English brand name has changed from “D’CENT” to “DCENT,” removing the apostrophe, while the Korean brand name remains unchanged.

The new slogan, “Own your future. At ease.”, reflects DCENT’s commitment to keeping ownership of digital assets in the hands of users while reducing the burden associated with storing and managing them. The new wordmark and signature color, “DCENT Lime,” visually represent this direction.

Beyond the Name: Expanding the Digital Asset ExperienceThe rebranding goes beyond changes to the brand name and visual identity. Hardware wallets have evolved from devices used primarily for asset storage into access points for approving transactions, participating in staking, and using a wide range of digital asset services.

In line with this evolution, DCENT is expanding into a brand that provides a comprehensive digital asset experience encompassing storage, backup, management, and utility.

The key phrase behind the rebranding is “Beyond Storage.” It represents DCENT’s commitment to making the entire digital asset journey more convenient—from secure storage to backup, recovery, management, and use.

Unveiled alongside the rebranding, DCENT X is a premium hardware wallet that embodies this direction through its product experience.

DCENT X is a cold wallet that allows users to clearly review what they are signing on its 2.4-inch AMOLED display and approve it with a single fingerprint. With the addition of the touchscreen- and fingerprint-enabled DCENT X, DCENT now offers a broader range of options suited to different storage preferences and usage environments, alongside its biometric hardware wallet and the card-style DCENT S.

DCENT S and DCENT X both feature a backup and recovery method using the Recovery Card. This approach reduces the inconvenience of manually writing down and storing a recovery phrase and allows users to manage their recovery information through a separate physical card, improving the convenience of digital asset storage.

From Personal Wallets to Enterprise and Institutional SolutionsDCENT is also expanding beyond individual users to provide digital asset management environments for businesses and institutions.

About DCENT EnterpriseDCENT Enterprise is an institutional solution designed to help businesses and institutions securely store and manage digital assets. It supports internal control mechanisms such as multi-level approvals, enabling organizations involving multiple authorized personnel to manage digital assets according to their internal policies.

Connecting personal hardware wallets and organization-level digital asset management solutions under a single DCENT brand represents the direction of the company’s business expansion through this rebranding.

“This rebranding marks the beginning of DCENT’s expansion beyond an asset storage device into a digital asset experience brand that connects backup, recovery, management, and utility,” said a representative of IoTrust. “We will continue to expand our business by broadening the options available to individual users through DCENT X and DCENT S, while supporting the digital asset management environments of businesses and institutions through DCENT Enterprise.”

DCENT currently supports more than 100 blockchain networks and over 10,000 tokens, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum, XRP Ledger, Solana, and Stellar (XLM).

US Treasuries extended their decline after the repurchase announcement, with the market viewing the $6 billion cap as insufficient.

The U.S. Treasury Department said it will purchase between $40 billion and $60 billion in long-term government debt in the first operation of its expanded repurchase program, demonstrating Secretary Bessent’s resolve to curb the recent rise in borrowing costs. U.S. Treasuries extended their earlier decline following the announcement, indicating the program’s size fell short of some investors’ expectations. The success of the expanded purchase program remains to be seen. After the program was first announced last month, yields fell before rebounding later. The benchmark 10-year yield hit its highest level since 2023 last week. Economist Guha, a former staffer at the New York Fed, noted: “The challenge always lies in whether the impact of these interventions can persist without larger fundamental changes.” Moreover, the maximum size of the repurchase operation does not mean the Treasury will necessarily purchase that amount of Treasuries. However, in repurchases targeting long-term nominal debt, the department typically buys the full amount; since the program was relaunched in 2024, it has only failed to do so in two of 52 such operations.

Eric Trump mocks Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden over the botched launch of the LAPTOP token, saying he should go back to painting.

US President Donald Trump’s second son Eric Trump reposted a post about the meme coin LAPTOP’s sharp price crash after its launch, commenting: “Hunter should go back to painting.” His remarks target Hunter Biden, son of former US President Joe Biden, who launched the meme coin LAPTOP. The reposted post notes that LAPTOP plummeted 98% within minutes of going live, adding that the project had originally planned to allocate a portion of its tokens to users who incurred losses from TRUMP-related transactions.

a16z Crypto releases open-source zkVM Lattice Jolt, with quantum-resistant capabilities.

a16z Crypto has announced the release of a new version of its open-source zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM), Lattice Jolt. The update switches the underlying cryptography from elliptic curves to lattice cryptography, making the system quantum-resistant, and boosts both prover and verifier speeds by 2 to 3 times. Its proof size currently stands at under 100KB, which a16z Crypto claims is the smallest proof of any post-quantum zkVM. Lattice Jolt uses a novel polynomial commitment scheme called Akita, built on the Module-SIS lattice hardness assumption, with a target 128-bit security level. Akita was developed by LayerZero’s research and engineering team in collaboration with teams from Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Southern California, and a16z Crypto. Performance-wise, Lattice Jolt can prove over 2 million RISC-V cycles per second on a CPU-only device; with Apple Metal GPU acceleration, it exceeds 10 million cycles on a MacBook. The prover’s memory footprint has also dropped from roughly 300 bytes per cycle to 200 bytes, supporting proof generation for millions of compute cycles on mobile phones. The project will add additional zero-knowledge functionality via an upcoming academic paper.

Vitalik: Hopes EIP-8288 will be included in the I-star Upgrade to significantly reduce the cost of quantum-secure transactions

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has published a post detailing the recursive STARK mempool proposal EIP-8288, which he aims to include in Ethereum’s I-star upgrade following the Hegota upgrade. The proposal cuts on-chain computation and data costs by offloading signatures and proofs from Ethereum’s core execution path and recursively aggregating STARKs within the mempool. Vitalik noted that the solution supports low-cost quantum-secure signatures and privacy protocols, with the cost of quantum-secure private transactions projected to drop from around 10 million Gas to tens of thousands of Gas. It is also compatible with new signature or proof schemes such as Falcon and ML-DSA without modifying the EVM, while enabling private account abstraction. Per the design, nodes will periodically aggregate transaction dependencies and generate recursive STARKs, and block builders will produce proofs for transactions slated for inclusion in blocks. Each block’s additional on-chain overhead is approximately a 100–300 KB STARK, plus 96 bytes of data per statement to be proven. The scheme may also drive Ethereum to adopt RISC-V as the standard instruction set for recursive STARKs.

Can DOGEBALL reach its stated $0.015 launch price? The target is possible, but not assured.

Summary

DOGEBALL is priced at $0.0077 in Stage 20, with more than $315,000 raised from over 1,080 participants. The project has set a $0.015 exchange launch price, nearly 95% above its current presale price. DOGEBALL plans to build token demand through DOGEPAY, gaming and its EVM compatible Layer 2 network. The team says 4 billion DOGEBALL tokens, equal to 20% of the original presale allocation, were burned in May. SUI has gained about 13% over seven days as interest in its price outlook and other crypto opportunities picks up. Crypto news today shows Bitcoin near $80,000 and Sui near $0.82, making Sui (SUI) price prediction and next popular crypto searches more active. DOGEBALL enters that conversation.

DOGEBALL launched as a presale ecosystem linking gaming, payments, and a custom Ethereum Layer 2. SUI has gained about 13% in seven days, while DOGEBALL reports Stage 20 progress. This report reviews price outlooks, market momentum, utility, risks, and upcoming product releases.

What is the SUI price forecast for 2026, 2027-2030? The SUI coin price is near $0.82, up about 3% over 24 hours and 13% over seven days. Recent SUI news shows stronger trading activity, but price still faces a key test near $1.05. Holding $0.66 matters. A break above $1.05 could improve the near-term SUI price forecast.

For SUI price prediction 2026, 2027-2030, one recent model puts 2026 between $0.563 and $3.51, then gives a 2030 range of $8.88 to $36. Those estimates are highly uncertain. Network growth may help, while higher token supply and broad market weakness could pressure price. It remains a high-risk asset.

DOGEBALL targets two real problems: slow crypto cash-outs and costly global payouts. DOGEPAY is designed so a sender uses crypto while the receiver gets fiat in a bank account. The project says it will support 30+ currencies, zero FX fees, and same-day or near-instant settlement. DOGEPAY is still marked “Coming Soon,” so delivery matters.

The $DOGEBALL token is meant to pay network fees across payments and gaming. If DOGEPAY and the game gain real users, repeated transactions could create token demand. That is why Sui (SUI) price prediction interest and the search for the next popular crypto may bring attention to DOGEBALL, but attention alone cannot support price.

DOGEBALL’s latest project figures put the presale at Stage 20, priced at $0.0077, with more than $315,000 raised and over 1,080 participants. The stated exchange launch price is $0.015. That sits about 95% above the presale price, but liquidity, selling pressure, and demand will decide whether the market holds it.

DOGEBALL MetricReported FigurePresale stage20Current price$0.0077Raised$315K+Participants1,080+Stated launch price$0.015BonusDB75 for 75% bonus tokens Supply changes matter too. The team says it burned 4 billion DOGEBALL tokens on May 11, 2026, equal to 20% of the original 20 billion presale allocation. Timed stages last up to seven days, and unsold tokens are set to be burned. Lower supply may help scarcity, but demand is still essential.

Key catalysts now include:

DOGEBALL V2 is planned for release on the website, with DB75 running until release. The game has a reported $1 million prize pool, including up to $500,000 for the top player. DOGEPAY is planned after exchange trading begins, with a specialist Web3 company expected to support exchange launches. DOGECHAIN also supports the price case. The project describes it as an EVM-compatible Ethereum Layer 2 built for fast, low-cost transactions. Its test network can already be added to wallets. The project also says Coinsult gave its smart contract a 100% audit score. An audit can reduce some code risk, but it never removes market or execution risk.

What is the DOGEBALL price prediction for 2026? A cautious DOGEBALL price prediction works best in scenarios. A weak launch could send price toward $0.004 to $0.008 if sellers dominate. A balanced case sits near $0.010 to $0.018 if liquidity stays stable. Strong game use, DOGEPAY delivery, and exchange demand could support $0.02 to $0.05. These are estimates, not promised outcomes.

Could Sui (SUI) price prediction trends and the next popular crypto search favor DOGEBALL? SUI has deeper liquidity and live trading history, while DOGEBALL is still in presale. SUI’s outlook depends on holding support and expanding network use. DOGEBALL’s outlook depends on product delivery, exchange liquidity, DOGEPAY adoption, and whether gaming activity turns into steady token use.

DOGEBALL has a clear utility plan, a reported token burn, and a busy product calendar. SUI has stronger market depth but faces price risk too. Both remain volatile. Community Members should verify contracts, audits, token terms, and launch details before making any financial decision.
