Bitcoin Hits New $126,000 Record While Retail Engagement Sleeps
Bitcoin surged past $126,000 to a new all-time high, driven by institutional inflows despite muted retail participation and heavy short liquidations.Corporate investments and ETF inflows suggest a structural market shift, challenging traditional crypto cycle theories and long-term models.Analysts warn that institutional dominance could redefine Bitcoin’s predictability, testing assumptions about market behavior and investor sentiment.Bitcoin reached a new all-time high, breaking $126,000 despite an apparent lack of engagement from retail traders. Corporate inflows overwhelmed a huge volume in short positions, creating an unusual situation.
If institutional investors really are directing the valuation of BTC, it might invalidate years of data on crypto price cycles. The future may be harder to predict than ever before.

Bitcoin’s Unusual All-Time HighBitcoin hit an all-time high yesterday, but this apparently hasn’t slowed the train down one bit. Throughout 17 years of price data, new heights typically recede somewhat, with records manifesting as brief spikes on an upward trend.
Profit-taking and other hedging activities often cause this, pulling prices back despite fierce enthusiasm.
Today, however, has been a little different. BTC did recede a little after yesterday’s all-time high, but investment continued, causing massive liquidations among short positions.
Ethereum is also flirting with a new record price level, but Bitcoin’s rise to $126,000 is causing the biggest impact:
Bitcoin and Altcoin Liquidations. Source: CoinglassAlthough this should ostensibly be bullish, Bitcoin’s newest all-time high is causing a little consternation among analysts. Some experts have feared that corporate inflows are powering this growth, representing a broader narrative shift from expectation of future gains to monetary panic.
Today’s new data seems to further corroborate these concerns. Bitcoin ETF investment is flourishing, and digital asset treasuries reported $1.3 billion in acquisitions last week.

This impressive figure doesn’t even include MicroStrategy or Metaplanet. Meanwhile, how is retail sentiment reacting to Bitcoin’s new all-time high?
A New Price Cycle?These pieces of information, especially when paired with the liquidation data, could present a concerning sign. “Concern” might be an overstatement; it’s hard to be outright bearish when Bitcoin hits an all-time high.
Still, today’s market raises an interesting question: how can we predict future price moves in these unprecedented circumstances?
Ever since the SEC approved BTC ETFs in 2024, analysts have been wondering if institutional inflows will permanently break well-established price dynamics.
Bitcoin hit two all-time highs in two days without much retail participation, which seems like an aberration if ever there was one. Where do we go from here?
If the rules really have changed forever, we’ll need to independently verify each time-tested industry truism to see if it still applies in 2025. Is Bitcoin actually a good inflation or recession hedge?
Can we continue trusting that crypto winters will always end, even if it takes multiple years? Your guess might be as good as mine.
That sort of chaos could be very unsettling and have deleterious impacts on investor confidence. Hopefully, we’ll get some answers soon.

Following a 3.57% daily rise, Solana price has regained upward traction amid renewed institutional interest and steady technical resilience. The asset continues to hold firm near its ascending support structure, reflecting sustained demand despite broader market fluctuations. Meanwhile, Solana Company’s recent purchase has reinforced growing investor confidence in the project’s long-term value proposition.
Solana Price Action Suggests a Strong Breakout Structure Forming Toward $300
The current Solana market price trades at $236.46, with buyers showing renewed confidence after holding above key support zones. The daily chart indicates an ascending trendline that has provided consistent structure since mid-year, offering a solid foundation for further advances.
Immediate resistance lies around $238, a crucial zone that could open the way for a test of $251 once breached. If Solana price sustains movement beyond this level, the next technical target sits near $300, aligning with a potential 56% rebound projection.
Notably, the Fibonacci extension highlights key retracement levels where consolidation could occur before continuation. The 0.618 level around $238 remains pivotal, while the 0.786 level near $252 could attract renewed buy-side volume.
Conversely, failure to hold above $227 may trigger a retest of lower support at $209, though the broader ascending trendline continues to provide strong structural backing.
SOL/USDT 1-Day Chart (Source: TradingView)
As recently highlighted by CoinGape, the consistent formation of higher lows underlines an active accumulation phase, positioning Solana for a potential breakout if buyers maintain pressure above short-term resistance.
The report also noted that breaching the $251 resistance could open a path toward the projected $360 target, aligning with a broader long-term Solana price prediction that envisions sustained growth from its current structure.
Solana Company’s $530M Acquisition Reinforces Institutional Backing
The announcement that Solana Company added $530 million worth of SOL to its treasury has strengthened optimism about institutional demand. The Nasdaq-listed firm’s allocation represents one of the largest corporate Solana purchases to date. It also signals increasing trust in the network’s efficiency and scalability among large investors.
Such institutional involvement tightens supply and supports the Solana price by reducing selling pressure. This move fits into a wider trend of corporate diversification into blockchain assets, especially those offering speed and cost advantages.
Meanwhile, Grayscale’s Solana Trust (GSOL) has also enabled staking, a move that could further strengthen institutional engagement once its regulatory uplisting to an ETP is approved.
To sum up, Solana price continues to demonstrate strength, supported by solid technicals and rising institutional exposure. The ascending support remains a key level to monitor, defining near-term market structure. A close above $251 would likely confirm continuation and open the path toward $300 and beyond. With Solana Company’s $530M buy and fresh staking exposure through Grayscale, the market outlook for Solana remains firmly bullish.

Dogecoin Price Vs. M2 Global Money Supply: The Trend That Points To $1 And $100s Of Billions In Market Cap
The Dogecoin price action is now being closely examined through the lens of M2 Global Money Supply trends, with a new analysis pointing to a powerful bullish setup. Charts comparing Dogecoin and the M2 global liquidity curve suggest that the meme coin could soon make a decisive move toward $1. At the same time, long-term technical patterns suggest a potential rise toward a market capitalization in the hundreds of billions of dollars.
Dogecoin Price And M2 Global Money Supply Signal $1 Breakout
On October 4, crypto analyst Bull Bear Spot on X social media highlighted a striking correlation between Dogecoin’s price and the growth of the M2 Global Money Supply. His accompanying chart showed that as M2 liquidity expands worldwide, DOGE tends to follow in tandem, forming a bullish trajectory. The overlay suggests that the meme coin, currently trading around $0.25, may be gearing up for a renewed push toward the $1 milestone, representing a significant surge of approximately 289%.
Furthermore, the analyst’s projection and logic are rooted in liquidity cycles. Typically, as central banks and global economies increase their money supply, risk assets, such as cryptocurrencies, often benefit from the spillover of excess capital. Dogecoin’s price structure over time has mirrored these macroeconomic liquidity waves, with previous peaks coinciding with surges in M2 growth, as seen in the chart.

According to Bull Bear Spot, DOGE’s current bullish setup indicates that it could “pump at any time,” possibly taking the market by surprise. While Dogecoin is often dismissed as a speculative meme coin, the connection between its price action and global liquidity offers a unique perspective—one where the cryptocurrency could experience one of its most explosive rallies in years if historical patterns repeat.
Dogecoin Market Cap Could Hit Hundreds Of Billions
Adding to the bullish outlook, crypto market expert EtherNasyonal presented a long-term technical analysis indicating a significant increase in market capitalization. His chart illustrates Dogecoin completing a textbook Cup and Handle formation, a bullish continuation pattern often seen before major upward moves.
In his analysis, Dogecoin has already broken above a key resistance line, a level that had capped its price action for months. After the breakout, the meme coin successfully retested this resistance as new support —a critical step in confirming the strength of the breakout. This technical validation sets the stage for what EtherNasyonal calls a potential “DOGE season,” where the coin’s market capitalization could surge toward “$100 billions.”
With Dogecoin’s current market cap hovering just under $40 billion, such a move would represent an exponential increase, bringing the meme coin into the same leagues as leading altcoins like Ethereum and Solana. EtherNasyonal’s chart indicates that a confirmed Cup and Handle breakout signals continued momentum that may drive DOGE well beyond previous highs.

Bitcoin All-Time High At $125,700 Was A Trap, Warns Analyst
Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure
Bitcoin’s dramatic weekend spike to a fresh all-time high of $125,700 lacked real spot demand and was largely the product of leveraged speculation in thin conditions, according to crypto analyst Maartun, who characterized the move as a classic fakeout rather than a durable breakout. “Bitcoin prints a brand new all-time high, $125,700… But hold on a second. The price almost immediately reversed,” he said, framing the question that followed: “Was that move for real?”
The Truth Behind Bitcoin’s Weekend Surge
Maartun argues the answer sits in the futures market. Open interest—capital tied up in outstanding derivatives positions—“didn’t just go up, it absolutely exploded,” rising by more than $2.1 billion during the rally. In his telling, that surge came “over a weekend, which is a time when there are way fewer buyers and sellers around,” amplifying the impact of leveraged positioning in a low-liquidity window. “This whole move was driven by futures, by bets,” he said, adding that the jump in open interest, roughly 5%, turned the market into “a house of cards ready to fall over at the slightest touch.”
Equally important, Maartun says, is what did not happen: an influx of committed spot buyers to underpin the advance. Earlier in the week, he notes, Coinbase showed aggressive spot demand, trading about $110 above other venues—evidence of “real buyers… snapping up Bitcoin.” During the weekend push, that premium vanished. “The gamblers were placing their bets,” Maartun said, “but the investors, the people actually buying Bitcoin, they were sitting this one out.”
With those two “clues”—a derivatives-led surge and the absence of spot confirmation—Maartun’s verdict is unambiguous. “You can call it a fake out, you can call it a swing failure pattern, or you can even call it the head of a head and shoulders pattern… It was a trap. A move that was designed to look like the real deal, but had absolutely no substance behind it.” After the brief print at $125,700, price swiftly retraced “right back down to where the whole move started,” he added.
From here, Maartun identifies a single inflection point: $123,000. “This is the level… that is going to tell us whether the bulls or the bears take control from here,” he said. On confirmation criteria, he is explicit: “What we need to see is a strong, confident close above that $123K mark. That would signal acceptance… and a true breakout is probably coming.”
Failure to reclaim and hold that area, in his view, likely hands momentum back to sellers with an initial drawdown target around $117,500. He also cautions against expecting a repeat head-fake at the same level: “Fakeouts don’t usually happen twice in a row. The second attempt to break a level like this is very often the real deal one way or the other.”
The broader context to Maartun’s assessment is the unusual timing and texture of the move. Weekends in crypto “are normally kind of sleepy,” he said, yet this one delivered “the best weekend performance we’ve seen in four whole months”—a signal, in his analysis, not of rekindled spot enthusiasm but of how quickly leverage can dominate price in quiet order books. Without renewed spot leadership—such as a return of the Coinbase premium or other evidence of net spot accumulation—he sees the market “on a knife’s edge” at the $123,000 line in the sand: “Break out or pull back?”
At press time, Bitcoin held above $124,216.

Plume Network Becomes SEC-Regulated Transfer Agent, Accelerating Onchain Securities
Plume Network, a modular Layer 2 blockchain focused on real-world assets (RWAs), has officially registered as an SEC-regulated transfer agent—marking a major step toward bridging decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional finance (TradFi). Following the announcement, Plume’s native token (PLUME) surged 25%, and daily trading volume jumped 186%, according to CoinMarketCap.
As a registered transfer agent, Plume now facilitates the issuance, transfer, and management of tokenized securities directly onchain, ensuring interoperability with the U.S. Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) settlement network. This regulatory milestone allows Plume to manage shareholder records, streamline digital securities issuance, and cut tokenization timelines from months to weeks through smart contract automation.
CEO and Co-Founder Chris Yin emphasized the platform’s mission to combine investor protection with blockchain efficiency. “With this fully onchain transfer agent protocol, we’re streamlining the issuance of digital securities while maintaining regulatory oversight,” Yin said. The initiative positions Plume as a critical infrastructure layer for institutions like BlackRock, Fidelity, and Apollo exploring compliant digital asset solutions.
Plume’s transfer agent service mirrors traditional roles such as maintaining shareholder records and processing ownership changes—but leverages blockchain for transparency and security. The company’s registration follows active collaboration with regulators and contributions to the GENIUS Act discussions.
Plume’s regulated infrastructure is already operational, and its first product rollout—featuring Nest protocol vaults—is scheduled for Q1 2026. Nest enables fund managers to create vaults backed by regulated assets, offering investors permissionless yield opportunities.
With growing interest from SEC-registered 40 Act funds, Plume is also pursuing additional licenses, including Alternative Trading System (ATS) and broker-dealer registrations, aiming to establish a fully compliant onchain capital market for tokenized securities. This move positions Plume at the forefront of the transition to compliant onchain finance.

Cardano Surges Monday as the Large-Cap Token Nears $1 Once Again
ETF anticipation is once again behind today's moves in Cardano.
While still quite a ways off from its pandemic-era highs of more than $3 per token, cryptocurrency Cardano (ADA 4.54%) is once again on the move. On Monday, Cardano saw its native token ADA surge more than 5% as of 4:30 p.m. ET. That's a 24-hour move, though this token has really been on quite the rally in recent weeks.
With Cardano now trading around $0.88, investors betting on a move toward the $1 level do have some key catalysts to rely on, outside the broadly bullish macro picture underpinning this sector.
Bullish bets on SEC ETF approval spurring demand
As one of the largest (and oldest) Layer-1 networks in the market, Cardano benefits from name recognition and solid positioning from large investors, or so-called whales. Indeed, that's one of the key metrics many traders and speculators rely on for whether a specific point in time is a buying or selling opportunity for tokens like Cardano.
Image source: Getty Images.
Right now, bullish momentum appears to be heating up, as many market participants appear to be looking to get ahead of an upcoming spot ETF approval by the SEC. As most investors are well aware, the SEC has starkly changed its position on the cryptocurrency sector, largely viewing these digital assets as investment-worthy (but that's really up to each individual to determine).
If Cardano is among the next major networks to receive the go-ahead for a spot ETF, I'd expect liquidity to surge on this network. Additionally, developers looking to build out new applications may choose to do so on a network with even greater perceived stability.
We'll have to see if this rally can be sustained. After all, Cardano has bounced off the $1 level a couple of times over the past few months. But it does appear investors are looking to get in front of what could be a big rally, so this token is one that will certainly be fun to watch.

Bee Maps Secures $32M to Expand Decentralized Mapping Network on Solana
Bee Maps, a decentralized mapping platform built on the Hivemapper network, has raised $32 million in fresh funding to accelerate its global expansion and strengthen its AI-driven mapping infrastructure. The investment round was led by Pantera Capital, LDA Capital, Borderless Capital, and Ajna Capital, marking one of the largest financings in the decentralized physical infrastructure (DePin) sector in 2025.
Bee Maps leverages Hivemapper’s AI-powered dash cams to crowdsource real-time road data. Drivers equipped with these devices contribute street-level imagery and updates such as new road signs, construction zones, and detours. In return, contributors are rewarded with Bee Maps’ native token, $HONEY, making it one of the fastest-growing decentralized data ecosystems on Solana. This model ensures constantly updated maps without relying on centralized entities like Google Maps or Apple Maps.
The new funding will be used to deploy more devices, enhance AI models, and boost contributor incentives. Co-founder Ariel Seidman emphasized that demand is high and the main challenge lies in scaling supply. To attract more participants, Bee Maps is introducing a Bee Membership plan that lowers the entry barrier—reducing upfront costs from nearly $600 to just $19 per month. The plan bundles hardware, software, and contributor benefits, making it easier for new users to join and earn rewards.
Bee Maps’ recent collaborations with Lyft and Volkswagen’s robotaxi program highlight growing industry confidence in decentralized mapping solutions. As Bee Maps expands, it aims to redefine how mapping data is collected, maintained, and monetized, proving that AI and blockchain can transform real-world infrastructure through community-driven innovation.

Filecoin (FIL) Price Rises 2% as Bulls Break Key Resistance at $2.37
Filecoin (FIL) surged 2% over the past 24 hours, climbing from $2.37 to $2.42, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model. The model highlights a strong support level at $2.31, reinforcing bullish confidence in the decentralized storage token.
The latest rally began when FIL broke through the critical $2.37 resistance level on heavy trading volume, totaling 6,938,918—nearly three times its daily average. This sharp increase in volume points to strong institutional participation, signaling a renewed investor interest in Filecoin and validating its bullish momentum toward the $2.42 peak.
At press time, FIL was trading around $2.415, up approximately 1.7% in recent sessions. The broader crypto market followed suit, with the CoinDesk 20 Index rising by 2%, reflecting improved sentiment across digital assets.
Technical indicators show a solid foundation for FIL. The $2.31 support level appears to be holding firm, suggesting that downside risk remains limited in the short term. Meanwhile, the asset’s successful penetration of the $2.37 resistance zone suggests buyers are regaining control. Analysts, however, caution that a new resistance area has emerged around $2.43, where reduced volume indicates potential hesitation as the market consolidates.
Filecoin’s recent price action underscores increasing optimism around decentralized storage solutions, as investors anticipate broader blockchain adoption and potential regulatory clarity in the U.S. Despite macroeconomic uncertainties and ongoing debates about crypto legislation amid potential government slowdowns, FIL’s technical strength hints at continued resilience and upward potential in the near term.

PEPE Surges Over 2.5%, Outshines Memecoin and Broader Crypto Markets
Meme-inspired cryptocurrency PEPE has seen a strong rally, climbing more than 2.5% in the past 24 hours, outperforming both the CoinDesk Memecoin Index (CDMEME), which rose 2.24%, and the broader CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index, up 1.8% in the same period.
According to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model, PEPE’s price jumped from $0.00000969 to $0.00001027, with over 314 billion tokens traded during a late surge in trading activity. Analysts observed significant trading within the $0.00001000 to $0.00001003 range, establishing a short-term support level, while resistance formed near $0.00001007. This pattern suggests accumulation, a sign that investors are building long-term positions rather than taking quick profits.
The rally is also being fueled by whale accumulation. Data from Nansen shows that the top 100 PEPE holders on Ethereum increased their holdings by 4.28% over the past 30 days, while exchange balances dropped 2.15%, indicating large investors are moving tokens off exchanges for long-term storage.
Meanwhile, open interest in PEPE futures has surged, reaching nearly $645 million, according to CoinGlass. This growing derivatives activity signals heightened trader confidence and increased speculative interest in the token’s price action.
The combination of whale buying, rising open interest, and strong price momentum suggests PEPE’s bullish trend could continue in the near term. As investor sentiment strengthens around meme coins, PEPE’s performance positions it as one of the most closely watched assets in the memecoin sector—potentially setting the stage for further upside if accumulation persists.

HBAR Price Surges 3% as Market Optimism Builds Amid U.S. Government Shutdown Concerns
Hedera Hashgraph’s native token, HBAR, showcased strong bullish momentum between October 5 and 6, climbing from $0.22 to $0.23 within a 24-hour period. The cryptocurrency’s intraday volatility reached 5.47%, highlighting heightened trading activity and renewed investor interest. After rebounding from lows near $0.21, HBAR managed to post higher highs above $0.23, marking a notable shift in sentiment as buying pressure intensified.
This rally came amid broader market uncertainty fueled by fears of a potential U.S. government shutdown, which spurred increased demand for alternative assets like cryptocurrencies. HBAR’s trading volume surged to 55 million, significantly above its 39.85 million daily average, reflecting strong market participation and short-term optimism. The token’s ability to hold gains despite traditional market pullbacks underscores investor confidence in its near-term outlook.
Technical indicators point toward sustained strength. HBAR established solid support at $0.21, confirmed by substantial trading volume. The token successfully broke through multiple resistance levels—first at $0.22, then $0.23—during periods of high-volume trading exceeding 43 million. Notably, a sharp breakout around 13:37 triggered a 2.87 million volume spike, pushing the price through successive resistance zones and reaching its session high of $0.23.
Despite a lighter final-hour volume of 5.56 million, HBAR maintained consolidation around its peak, signaling stability after a strong upward move. With increasing investor participation, favorable technical momentum, and rising interest in digital assets during macroeconomic uncertainty, HBAR’s bullish trajectory appears poised to extend further, provided it sustains support above the $0.21–$0.22 range.

Altcoin prices rise as USDT dominance falls: Is ‘altseason' here?
USDT dominance dropped as a key altcoin market capitalization metric rose to $1.18 trillion, hinting that a cautiously brewing altseason could be brewing.

Key takeaways:
TOTAL3 market cap hit a record $1.18 trillion, signaling accelerating momentum within the altcoin cohort of the crypto market.
USDT dominance dropped sharply, hinting at capital rotation into risk assets.
TradingView ticker, TOTAL3, which tracks the market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies excluding Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH), reached a new all-time high of $1.18 trillion on Monday. The metric also marked its highest weekly close on Sunday, surpassing its peak market capitalization from 2021.
TOTAL3 market cap. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewTraders use the TOTAL3 chart as an indicator of altcoin market health because its combined valuation provides insight into capital rotation patterns and the strength of the broader altcoin ecosystem.
Adding fuel to the altseason speculation, USDT dominance has plummeted by 11.8% over the past week, dropping to 4.18% from 4.74%. This sharp decline in Tether’s market share typically signaled that investors are rotating capital away from stablecoins and into riskier assets, seeking higher returns as market confidence builds. A drop below 4% would match its lowest USDT dominance since January 2025.

Source: XData points to a slowly brewing “Altseason” A deeper look at performance data among the top 100 crypto assets highlighted the growing strength and the complexity of this emerging altcoin cycle.
The data revealed a decisive acceleration in altcoin momentum over the past three months, with cumulative returns outpacing Bitcoin’s by more than sixfold. This shift suggested that while Bitcoin continues to anchor the market, capital is increasingly rotating into riskier assets, which is an indicator of an “altseason” in formation.

Average returns for the top 100 crypto assets show that only 60% of gains currently stemmed from altcoins, below the 80% to 90% threshold that typically defines an established altseason.
At the same time, the altcoin season index has climbed to 69%, closing in on the critical 75% line that would confirm widespread altcoin dominance.
Adding a layer of caution, CryptoQuant reported that since Sept. 22, exchanges have seen a $4 billion net outflow in ERC-20 stablecoins, with Binance driving $3 billion (75%) of the total. Its combined stablecoin reserves have fallen to $42 billion from $45 billion.

Stellar Lumens (XLM) surged 3% within a 23-hour period ending October 6, climbing from $0.40 to $0.41 amid a significant spike in institutional activity exceeding 71 million tokens. The price rebound from $0.39 marks a technical recovery, with traders capitalizing on strong demand during peak trading hours to push the token through key resistance levels.
XLM’s ability to maintain levels above $0.41 — a former resistance zone — highlights growing institutional confidence in Stellar’s long-term role as a foundational blockchain for financial infrastructure. Analysts point to persistent corporate buying pressure as evidence of the network’s increasing recognition among enterprise users, especially for payment and settlement solutions.
Technical data confirms this institutional accumulation. Support was firmly established at $0.39, where corporate trading volume reached 62.57 million tokens on October 5. Multiple resistance tests occurred at $0.41 before a decisive breakout fueled by heavy institutional buying. At 13:38, trading activity peaked with 2.86 million tokens exchanged, validating the breakout and setting the tone for continued upward momentum.
The ascending price trend from the $0.39 base suggests steady corporate accumulation, further reinforced by consistent higher closes during the final trading hours. Daily trading volumes well above the 24-hour average of 25.43 million tokens indicate a new phase of institutional interest in XLM.
Market strategists regard Stellar Lumens as one of the most undervalued payment-focused cryptocurrencies trading below $1.00. Many forecast potential gains toward the $1.00 level in the next wave of institutional adoption, driven by the expansion of blockchain-based payment systems across global finance.

XRP Beats BlackRock in Market Cap as Price Targets New ATH
With the crypto market remaining in a bullish state since the beginning of the month, leading cryptocurrencies have been in the spotlight.
XRP has been trading steadily on the upside, and its market capitalization has now surged high enough to surpass BlackRock’s $181 billion valuation.
According to data from CoinMarketCap, XRP’s market capitalization has increased by 2.12% over the last 24 hours, reaching $182.02 billion, overtaking the world’s largest asset manager by more than $1 billion.
HOT Stories
The milestone positions the Ripple-associated cryptocurrency as a major contender to Wall Street, amid growing optimism that XRP is poised for a sustainable and extended rally.
XRP up 6.94% in UptoberAmid renewed institutional interest and widespread market optimism, XRP appears to be leading the “Uptober” bull run with strong upward momentum.
Since the October rally began on Wednesday, XRP has recorded an impressive 6.94% surge in less than a week. Maintaining a consistent close above the $3 mark for most of its trading sessions, XRP’s price performance in early October suggests that traders are preparing for a significant breakout.
The sustained surge in XRP’s price has been driven by the anticipated launch of the spot XRP ETF, expected to debut this month.
Additional catalysts include Ripple’s recent filing for a national trust banking license in the U.S., several strategic partnerships, growing DeFi adoption of the XRP Ledger, and a series of pro-crypto regulatory developments favoring Ripple and its ecosystem.
XRP to hit ATH after 20% surgeWhile analysts have set high expectations for XRP before the “Uptober” rally concludes, data indicates that the altcoin would need to rise by approximately 20% from its current price near $3.05 to retest its previous all-time high of $3.84, last reached in early 2018.
Given its recent performance and strong market sentiment, analysts are increasingly confident that XRP is on track to set a new record high after seven years of consolidation.

Strategy reported $3.89 billion in unrealized gains on Bitcoin (BTC) during the third quarter of 2025, propelling the company to surpass Coinbase’s market cap.
The company’s holdings surpassed $80 billion in value for the first time as Bitcoin trades above $125,000. As of press time, bitcoin traded at $125,420.83, valuing the company’s digital asset portfolio at approximately $80.26 billion based on current market prices.

As of Oct. 6, Strategy holds 640,031 BTC acquired at an aggregate purchase price of $47.35 billion with an average cost basis of $73,983 per BTC.
The company recorded an unrealized gain of $3.89 billion during the quarter ended Sept. 30, partially offset by a deferred tax expense of $1.12 billion.

Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High Amid U.S. Government Shutdown Uncertainty
Bitcoin has once again set a new all-time high (ATH), surpassing $126,000, as traders continue to bet on the cryptocurrency amid the ongoing U.S. government shutdown. According to TradingView data, BTC climbed more than 2% in the past 24 hours, breaking above its previous record of $125,500. The rally marks a continuation of the bullish momentum that began at the start of October, with Bitcoin now up nearly 10% this month.
Analysts attribute this surge to the so-called “debasement trade,” as investors flock to Bitcoin as a hedge against economic instability and government inaction. The shutdown, which began on October 1, has halted key economic data releases, further fueling market uncertainty. As traditional markets face potential disruptions, Bitcoin’s appeal as a safe-haven asset has strengthened, leading to significant inflows into crypto-focused investment vehicles.
Data from Polymarket indicates that there’s a 72% chance the U.S. government shutdown could extend beyond October 15. Despite this, Bitcoin ETFs saw a massive turnaround last week, recording $3.24 billion in inflows—their second-largest weekly increase ever—signaling renewed institutional confidence.
Financial institutions are also bullish. Standard Chartered forecasts that Bitcoin could surge to $135,000 in the short term, with a year-end target of $200,000, driven by growing ETF demand and macroeconomic uncertainty. Meanwhile, prediction market odds show a 68% chance of BTC hitting $130,000 this month, a 38% chance of reaching $135,000, and a 9% chance of climbing to $150,000—a historic milestone.
Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto echoed this optimism, noting that Bitcoin’s price pattern suggests a continued uptrend toward the $135,000 mark before October ends. As global uncertainty persists, Bitcoin’s role as digital gold continues to solidify, reaffirming its position as the market’s ultimate risk hedge.

Solana Price Builds Toward $300 as Institutional Demand Strengthens
Solana (SOL) has regained bullish momentum, rising 3.57% in a day and reclaiming strong technical footing amid growing institutional interest. The cryptocurrency is trading at $236.46, holding firmly above its ascending support structure — a pattern that has underpinned steady price recovery since mid-year. This structure signals sustained demand despite broader market volatility, setting the stage for a potential breakout.
Technical analysis shows key resistance around $238, a crucial barrier that, once cleared, could pave the way toward $251. Sustained movement beyond this level may validate a bullish continuation targeting $300, marking a possible 56% rebound. The Fibonacci retracement levels highlight potential consolidation zones, with the 0.618 level near $238 acting as a pivot point and the 0.786 level around $252 drawing attention from buyers. However, a dip below $227 could lead to a retest of lower support at $209, though the broader ascending trend remains intact.
Market optimism has been reinforced by Solana Company’s recent $530 million SOL purchase, one of the largest corporate acquisitions in the network’s history. This move underscores growing confidence among institutional investors in Solana’s long-term scalability and efficiency. By tightening circulating supply, such large-scale buys reduce selling pressure, strengthening SOL’s market position. Additionally, Grayscale’s Solana Trust (GSOL) now enables staking, potentially boosting institutional engagement once its regulatory approval as an ETP is finalized.
Overall, Solana’s technical resilience combined with robust institutional participation paints a bullish outlook. A decisive close above $251 could confirm an upward breakout, propelling the asset toward $300 and beyond. With increasing corporate adoption and fresh staking opportunities, Solana continues to solidify its position as one of the strongest performers in the crypto market.

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin ETF Nears $100B Milestone, Becomes Firm's Most Profitable Fund
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is on the verge of making financial history, standing just shy of the $100 billion assets under management (AUM) mark — less than two years after its debut. According to Bloomberg data, IBIT has become BlackRock’s most profitable exchange-traded fund (ETF), generating an impressive $244 million in annual revenue and surpassing all of the firm’s other ETFs in profitability.
Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas described IBIT’s rapid rise as “absurd,” emphasizing its unprecedented pace compared to BlackRock’s legacy funds such as the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and iShares MSCI EAFE ETF (EFA), which took over two decades to reach similar profitability. Balchunas noted that IBIT achieved this remarkable feat in just 435 days — far faster than any of BlackRock’s long-standing ETFs.
If IBIT surpasses the $100 billion milestone, it will become the fastest ETF in history to reach that level, breaking the record previously set by Vanguard’s S&P 500 ETF (VOO), which took 2,011 days to do so. The Bitcoin ETF’s exceptional growth underscores the accelerating demand for digital asset exposure among institutional investors seeking regulated and accessible entry points into cryptocurrency.
IBIT’s $244.5 million in annual revenue outpaces major funds like IWF and EFA, both at around $219 million. The surge highlights a significant shift in investor behavior as Bitcoin becomes more integrated into traditional finance. Analysts at Standard Chartered predict Bitcoin could hit $200,000 by year-end, fueling further optimism.
As Bitcoin’s rally continues, IBIT’s success signals a broader acceptance of crypto-based investment vehicles. With institutional inflows showing no signs of slowing, BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF is redefining how digital assets shape the future of global investing.

XRP and Solana ETFs: Wall Street Validation or Decentralization Death Sentence?
A new proposal to overhaul Polygon’s tokenomics is gaining momentum on the project’s governance forum and across social media, as investors voice frustration over POL’s steep underperformance compared to the broader crypto market.
The proposal, authored by activist token investor Venturefounder, calls for major revisions to Poilygon’s (POL) supply model, including the elimination of its 2% annual inflation rate and the introduction of a treasury-funded buyback or burn program to reduce ongoing sell pressure.
“These changes are intended to align the supply dynamics of POL with its current technological and strategic reality, reinforce investor confidence, and prevent further token devaluation and network stagnation,” Venturefounder wrote in the forum post.
Under the current model, Polygon’s 2% annual inflation adds roughly 200 million new POL tokens to the market each year — a factor the author argues has created persistent downward pressure on price. The proposal suggests either moving to a 0% inflation target to establish a fixed supply or adopting a tapering schedule, reducing inflation by 0.5% per quarter until it reaches zero.
The author cites BNB (BNB), Avalanche (AVAX) and Ether (ETH) as examples of tokens that have benefited from deflationary or fixed-supply models, arguing that a similar approach could strengthen POL’s value proposition.
The proposal follows a widely circulated manifesto posted by Venturefounder on X, which has garnered over 25,000 views. In that post, the investor described POL’s 46% decline over the past year, and its current trading level below 2022 bear-market lows, as “inexcusable” during what many consider a crypto bull market led by Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether.
Source: Venturefounder“These excuses are NOT VALID,” Venturefounder wrote. “There is nothing wrong with the market, there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with POL, and it’s DOWN BAD.”
In addition to the inflation issue, the manifesto criticized a series of strategic missteps by the Polygon team since 2022, while urging more transparent communication and faster delivery of key infrastructure like Agglayer.
The proposal has drawn positive engagement from within the Polygon ecosystem. Brendan Farmer, Polygon co-founder, reacted to the discussion, and Polygon Labs CEO Marc Boiron acknowledged the proposal on social media.
POL’s dismal price performance. Source: CointelegraphThe forum thread remains open as community members debate the feasibility of funding validator rewards without inflation, the sustainability of buybacks and the overall impact on network security.
Polygon faces confidence challenges as competition intensifiesOnce one of the most highly touted Ethereum scaling solutions, Polygon built its reputation on strong technical innovation, from its zkEVM rollout to the ambitious AggLayer framework designed to unify multiple chains. Yet despite these advancements, investor confidence has waned, and competition from newer layer-2 ecosystems such as Arbitrum, Optimism and Base has intensified.
In 2024, Polygon began migrating its native token from MATIC to POL as part of a broader governance and tokenomics overhaul intended to enhance community participation and secure the network. The transition introduced a 2% annual emissions schedule to fund validator rewards and ecosystem incentives.
Despite its recent struggles, Polygon retains a strong developer community, particularly among builders seeking technical maturity and enterprise-grade infrastructure.
As Cointelegraph recently reported, citing a study across Mexico, Brazil, Peru and Bolivia, Latin American developers continue to favor Polygon and Ethereum over newer protocols for deploying decentralized applications.
Polygon has also doubled down on the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs). In a recent example, AlloyX, a tokenization infrastructure provider, launched a tokenized money market fund on Polygon. This growing RWA activity has helped fuel broader onchain engagement, including a milestone where Polygon’s NFT sales surpassed $2 billion.

Owning Bitcoin, not a home, is the real ‘American Dream' after BTC hits $126K
Key Takeaways
Why is Bitcoin being called the new American Dream?
Home prices are up 50% since 2020 but down 90% in BTC terms, with BTC hitting a new ATH of $126K.
What’s driving BTC’s momentum?
Strong holder sentiment, renewed ETF inflows, and historical Q4 strength are fueling expectations.
Bitcoin [BTC] hit a new all-time high of $126,296 on 06 October. However, its real story isn’t about another record, it’s about what that record means.
As home prices rise and affordability declines, BTC’s surge is rewriting the definition of the American Dream. In an economy where owning a home has become unattainable for millions, holding BTC now offers the kind of financial freedom real estate once symbolized.
Homes soar in USD, collapse in BTC
According to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Index, U.S home prices have climbed by over 50% since 2020. However, Bitcoin’s value has risen more than 500% over the same period.
And yet, when home prices are measured in BTC, they’ve fallen by about 90% – Meaning that it takes far fewer Bitcoins to buy a home today than it did five years ago.
Source: X
In 2020, a typical U.S home cost around 40 BTC. Today, it costs fewer than 5 BTC.
Such a divergence highlights the growing wealth gap between traditional asset holders and crypto investors. It also means that Bitcoin, not real estate, may now be the more attainable “dream” for the digital generation.
BTC holders stay bullish at record highs
Analysis of TradingView data revealed that Bitcoin climbed to a high of $126,296, before consolidating above $125,000 at press time. This, on the back of bullish momentum building throughout late September.
Source: TradingView
The Holders’ Sentiment index, which recently flipped to positive (6.77), seemed to confirm growing investor confidence after weeks of neutral-to-bearish conditions at press time.
The strong rebound from the $110,000-zone, coupled with increasing volume, is evidence of renewed institutional inflows following ETF accumulation and broader market optimism. If momentum holds, Bitcoin could attempt a move towards the next resistance near $130,000–$135,000, marking the start of a new price discovery phase.
From bricks to bytes – Shifting the wealth paradigm
The idea that Bitcoin could replace homeownership as the foundation of financial security was once unthinkable. However, as housing affordability erodes and asset inflation widens generational divides, digital property has emerged as a modern alternative to physical real estate.
For millennials and Gen Z, Bitcoin offers liquidity, borderless ownership, and yield opportunities through financial products like ETFs and staking derivatives — Features that real estate cannot match in an era of high interest rates and declining purchasing power.
Analysts eye strong Q4 performance
As Bitcoin enters the final quarter of 2025, market analysts remain broadly bullish. In fact, historical data suggests that Q4 has consistently been Bitcoin’s strongest stretch, with October and November delivering some of the highest average monthly returns in previous cycles.
Source: X
While some traders are anticipating a cooling period after the ongoing rally, others believe that BTC could hit $150,000–$180,000 by year-end if institutional momentum continues.

Uniswap, Aave lead DeFi fee rebound to $600 million as protocols embrace buybacks and fundamentals
Insider sales are common in public companies, but investors shouldn't ignore them, especially when unusually high. This may signal insiders view shares as overvalued, a bearish sign. Still, employees and large shareholders need to sell stock for cash. Investors must analyze each sale to understand its true message; not all are bearish.
Below, we’ll detail two of the market's most talked-about artificial intelligence (AI) stocks that have recently seen insider sales spike. Should investors truly worry about these sales, or are they simply distractions amid the big-time rallies in these stocks?
CRWV’s Hedge Fund Investor Massively Increased Sales in September
CoreWeave Today
$133.85 -0.94 (-0.70%)
As of 04:00 PM Eastern
52-Week Range$33.51▼
$187.00Price Target$127.64
First up is CoreWeave NASDAQ: CRWV, the NVIDIA NASDAQ: NVDA-backed neo cloud company that has seen its shares go on an incredible run. Since going public in March, shares are up by approximately 237%. The company has announced several deals with AI hyperscaler firms, leading to its huge gains. It also saw revenues rise by 207% last quarter and posted a backlog of $30.1 billion.
However, one of the company’s top investors is now moving out of the stock in a big way. Since Sept. 15, MarketBeat has tracked approximately $1.4 billion worth of insider selling from Magnetar Financial LLC, a hedge fund manager and one of the largest owners of CoreWeave shares. Magnetar's recent sales are notable for several reasons. First, all these sales are discretionary, not under a predetermined plan. They provide a much clearer bearish signal than planned sales.
Additionally, Magnetar’s CoreWeave sales in a span of less than three weeks amount to more than all the company’s insiders' sales in its history. That clearly amounts to a massive spike and should be a warning sign to investors. Lastly, Magnetar sold these shares at an average price of around $129. That’s around 4% below CoreWeave’s Oct. 2 closing price of nearly $135, further amplifying the bearish signal of Magnetar's sales. The firm was willing to sell billions in CoreWeave stock, even when it was trading lower than it currently is.
Broadcom's Insider Sales Soar, But How Much Trouble Do They Truly Spell?
Broadcom Today
$335.49 -2.88 (-0.85%)
As of 04:00 PM Eastern

$374.23Dividend Yield0.70%
P/E Ratio85.58
Price Target$357.22
Semiconductor giant Broadcom NASDAQ: AVGO has also performed very impressively in 2025. Overall, shares have provided a total return of 47%, driven by robust demand for the firm’s custom AI chips. However, Broadcom has also seen insider sales balloon recently. In September alone, the company saw around $226 million worth of insider sales. That’s slightly more than the $222 million Broadcom saw from April to August, demonstrating the big uptick in selling. Given the stock’s huge appreciation, investors could view this as a red flag. However, it is also important to note that around $125 million, or 55% of these sales, were non-discretionary. This significantly mutes the bearish signal implied by the recent insider sales at Broadcom.
Broadcom’s discretionary sales in September average out to a price of around $340. With Broadcom shares trading at around $338, insiders may not see much more near-term upside in the stock. Despite insider sales, Broadcom remains a strongly growing, highly profitable, and technologically advanced company, maintaining solid long-term prospects. Chief Executive Officer Hock Tan’s long-term AI-driven compensation plan further supports this idea.
CRWV & AVGO: A Tale of 2 Different Insider Sale Signals
Based on the nature of their insider sales, those coming from CoreWeave insiders are much more worrisome than those from Broadcom insiders. Magentar’s sales aren’t overly surprising, given that CoreWeave shares have gone on an absolutely massive run. Overall, investors may want to consider whether smart money is noticing that CoreWeave shares are being driven too much by hype and not enough by fundamentals.
Notably, the firm’s capital expenditures were $2.9 billion last quarter, around 2.4 times higher than its revenue of $1.2 billion. CoreWeave will eventually need to flip this dynamic over the next few years or risk the market changing its tune on this stock. Still, it is very possible that the market will keep rewarding this name for growth in the short term.

U.S. Stocks, Gold Touch Records on Rate-Cut Optimism
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. (“Solaris”) (NYSE: SEI) today announced its intention to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “notes”) in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Solaris also expects to grant the underwriters of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $90,000,000 principal amount of notes solely to cover over-allotments.
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Santander US Capital Markets LLC are acting as the book-running managers for the offering.
The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Solaris, will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears and will mature on October 1, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Noteholders will have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Solaris will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A common stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of its Class A common stock, at Solaris’s election.
The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at Solaris’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after October 2, 2028 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Solaris’s Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” occur, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Solaris to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.
The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at the pricing of the offering.
Solaris intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the cost of entering into the capped call transactions described below. Solaris expects to use the remainder of the net proceeds to purchase from Solaris Energy Infrastructure, LLC (“Solaris LLC”), its operating subsidiary, a subordinated convertible note to be issued by Solaris LLC with substantially similar economic terms as the notes (also taking into account the effect of the capped call transactions), and Solaris LLC expects to use such net proceeds to (i) repay the outstanding principal amount of $320.9 million (plus accrued and unpaid interest and any make-whole or other prepayment premium) under and terminate the Term Loan Agreement and (ii) fund growth capital for additional power generation equipment, including new natural gas turbines and complementary “balance of plant” electrical equipment, to support customer activity (which Solaris expects will include the funding of a turbine expansion opportunity to purchase approximately 80 MW of new turbine capacity to be delivered late in the fourth quarter of 2025).
If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional notes, then Solaris intends to use a portion of the additional net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions as described below and will transfer the remainder to Solaris LLC in exchange for an increase to the note it previously issued to Solaris.
In connection with the pricing of the notes, Solaris expects to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with one or more of the initial purchasers or their affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected to cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the notes, the number of shares of Solaris’s Class A common stock that will initially underlie the notes.
The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to Solaris’s Class A common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset any potential cash payments Solaris is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be, upon any conversion of the notes, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If, however, the market price per share of Solaris’s Class A common stock, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, exceeds the cap price of the capped call transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the capped call transactions. If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional notes, then Solaris expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties.
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into cash-settled over-the-counter derivative transactions with respect to Solaris’s Class A common stock concurrently with, or shortly after, the pricing of the notes, including with certain investors in the notes, and may unwind these derivative transactions and purchase shares of Solaris’s Class A common stock following the pricing of the notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of Solaris’s Class A common stock or the notes at that time.
In addition, the option counterparties and/or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to Solaris’s Class A common stock and/or purchasing or selling Solaris’s Class A common stock or other securities of Solaris in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the notes and prior to the maturity of the notes (and are likely to do so (x) following any conversion of the notes, any repurchase of the notes by Solaris on any fundamental change repurchase date or any redemption date, (y) following any other repurchase of the notes if Solaris elects to unwind a corresponding portion of the capped call transactions in connection with such repurchase and (z) if Solaris elects otherwise to unwind all or a portion of the capped call transactions). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of Solaris’s Class A common stock or the notes, which could affect the ability of noteholders to convert the notes, and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of notes, it could affect the number of shares and value of the consideration that noteholders will receive upon conversion of the notes.
In a separate press release, Solaris also announced that Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, acting on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates (in such capacity, the “delta offering underwriter”), intends to offer, in a separate, underwritten offering, a number of shares of Solaris’s Class A common stock borrowed from third parties (the “concurrent delta offering”), to facilitate hedging transactions (whether physical and/or through derivatives) by some of the purchasers of the notes. The number of shares of Solaris’s Class A common stock subject to the concurrent delta offering will be determined at the time of pricing of the concurrent delta offering and is expected to be no greater than commercially reasonable initial short positions of such hedging investors in the notes. The completion of the offering of notes is contingent on the completion of the concurrent delta offering, and the completion of the concurrent delta offering is contingent on the completion of the offering of notes. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any Class A common stock in the concurrent delta offering.
The offering of notes is being made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The offering will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus. An electronic copy of the preliminary prospectus supplement, together with the accompanying prospectus, is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, copies of the preliminary prospectus supplement, together with the accompanying prospectus, can be obtained by contacting: Morgan Stanley, 180 Varick Street, 2nd Floor, New York, New York 10014, Attention: Prospectus Department, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, 200 West Street, New York, NY 10282, Attention: Prospectus Department, by email at [email protected] or by telephone at 866-471-2526 and Santander US Capital Markets LLC, 437 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10022, Attention: ECM Syndicate, by email at [email protected] or by telephone at 833-818-1602.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities referred to in this press release, nor will there be any sale of any such securities, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.

US court rejects Novo Nordisk's challenge to Medicare drug pricing plan

SummaryCompaniesCourt upholds Medicare's drug price negotiation powerNovo Nordisk's constitutional challenges rejected by 3rd CircuitMultiple drugmakers' lawsuits against Medicare program have failed in appellate courtsCHICAGO, Oct 6 (Reuters) - A federal appeals court on Monday rejected Novo Nordisk's
(NOVOb.CO), opens new tab challenge to the U.S. government’s program that gives its Medicare health insurance plan the power to negotiate lower drug prices, the latest in a barrage of lawsuits brought by drugmakers to fail.
The Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court’s ruling dismissing the Danish drugmaker’s challenge to the program and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' selection of six of its insulin products for price negotiations.
Sign up here.
A unanimous three-judge panel rejected Novo’s constitutional challenges to the program, which was part of Democratic former President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act, and said the law specifically bars courts from reviewing the drugs selected.
A Novo Nordisk spokesperson said the company was assessing its options to appeal the ruling.

President Donald Trump has put pressure on drugmakers to lower their prices in recent months, as Americans pay more for pharmaceuticals than any other nation.

Novo is among several pharmaceutical companies to challenge the program, claiming it violated its constitutional rights to due process and free speech. Nearly all have failed.
In May, the 3rd Circuit upheld a lower court’s ruling dismissing AstraZeneca's
(AZN.L), opens new tab challenge, saying the company had no protected constitutional right to sell its drugs to the government at a price higher than what it wants to pay. In September, the court ruled similarly in challenges brought by Bristol Myers Squibb

(NOVN.S), opens new tab, court records show.
Monday’s ruling, authored by Circuit Judge Thomas Hardiman, an appointee of Republican President George W. Bush, pointed to the court’s earlier precedents to reject Novo’s constitutional challenges.
Hardiman was joined on the panel by Circuit judges Peter Phipps, who was appointed by Trump, and Arianna Freeman, a Biden appointee.
