Market Signal Briefing

Bitcoin (BTC) storms back above $106,000 to start the week as US government reopening excitement takes over.

Bitcoin joins risk assets in rebounding amid hopes that the US government will end its record shutdown this week.

US inflation data could also return, providing key insight into future Fed policy.

US President Donald Trump’s pledge to give most Americans $2,000 rekindles COVID-era stimulus enthusiasm.

Bitcoin derivatives traders remain cautious, with little interest in betting on new highs.

Bitcoin whales are on the radar as consistent sellers throughout 2025.

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView also confirms BTC/USD preserving a key nearby support trend line — its 50-week exponential moving average (EMA).

What a weekly candle close.

Are we ready for a green week on the markets?

“Keep an eye on $GOLD & $BTC 4H trend,” trader Skew told followers in one of his latest posts on X.

The US government shutdown marks a pivotal event for market sentiment, affecting both cryptocurrency and the broader risk-asset landscape.

Data from monitoring resource CoinGlass shows the amount of liquidity at stake, even from a relatively small BTC price move. 24-hour cross-crypto liquidations, meanwhile, stood at nearly $350 million at the time of writing.

Discussing support and resistance levels, trader CrypNuevo had a clear line in the sand in mind.

“Another confluence is the short liquidation cluster at $105.5k. Price will likely target that zone,” he wrote in an X thread.

Plenty of caution remained, with various market participants warning that the uptick to local highs near $107,000 could easily reverse.

Shutdown talk brings CPI week into focusWith talk of the US government shutdown coming to an end imminently, inflation data is back on the menu for the Federal Reserve — and risk-asset traders.

BREAKING: The US Senate votes 60-40 to advance a bill in a major breakthrough to end the US government shutdown.

— The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) November 10, 2025
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) print is notionally due for release on Thursday, along with initial jobless claims, followed by the Producer Price Index (PPI) a day later.

The absence of the shutdown would provide a key window into the state of the economy, including the impact of US trade tariffs.

These currently face Supreme Court scrutiny, and any announcements related to them could inject fresh volatility into the market.

“Amid the data blackout, the Fed is cutting rates and market volatility is returning,” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter summarized Monday.

Kobeissi referred to expectations of further interest-rate cuts in 2025, with the Fed’s December meeting anticipated to produce another 0.25% decrease, per data from CME Group’s FedWatch Tool.

With stocks bouncing back on the improved US outlook, trading resource Mosaic Asset Company argued that the current market trend could be the “most hated bull market ever.”

“While the impact of the government shutdown and speculation over its longevity is driving headlines, private sector data points to an economic backdrop that’s still supportive of the earnings outlook,” it noted in the latest edition of its regular newsletter, “The Market Mosaic.”

Mosaic also referenced “excessive levels of fear,” as reported by several market sentiment gauges.

“If the stock market climbs a ‘wall of worry,’ then this recent leg of the stock market rally could be unprecedented in terms of investor fear relative to market gains,” it added.

Tied to Trump’s international trade tariffs, the payout was revealed in a post on Truth Social.

“A dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone,” it stated.

Source: Truth Social
Reacting, Kobeissi quickly likened the move to the COVID-19 era stimulus checks.

“Stimulus checks are officially back,” it wrote on X.

As Cointelegraph reported at the time, the repeat issuance of the checks sparked bullish crypto market price action due to their implied impact on the US money supply. $1,200 checks from April 2020 invested in Bitcoin at the time are now worth around $20,000.

This time around could be no different, analysts told Cointelegraph last week, as they eyed an “additional liquidity catalyst.”

Both US and international liquidity increases have buoyed the crypto bull case throughout the year. Global broad money supply now stands at $142 trillion — a new record.

“Year-to-date, money supply has jumped +9.1%, driven by China and the US,” Kobeissi reported, describing the supply as being “through the roof.”

The tariff scheme, meanwhile, hangs in the balance as the US Supreme Court decides on its legality.

Options traders are on the alertBitcoin derivatives traders have “little trust in a bottom” around $100,000 as open interest rebounds.

Research from onchain analytics platform Glassnode warns that “fear” remains the driving force on Bitcoin options markets in particular.

Analyzing put-call volumes late last week, Glassnode had little good news for bulls.

“Put–call volumes show little trust in a bottom. Put activity surged during the drop, then calls spiked as traders played the rebound near $100k,” it wrote in an X thread. 

“Even then, puts rose again, markets expect a retest and remain hedged.”Bitcoin options volume put/call ratio. Source: Glassnode
Data further shows that traders lack a long-term mindset when it comes to Bitcoin, even shunning the odds of a rebound to $120,000.

“Options data show the market remains in fear mode, with little confidence in a lasting bottom,” the thread stressed.

Open interest, which had seen a significant decline as the price tumbled, has already started creeping higher.

As Cointelegraph reported, bulls may thus end up taking longer to stabilize price and stage a rebound of their own.

Bitcoin whale selling becomes standardBitcoin whales dominate the headlines during the BTC price dip as relentless selling makes traders nervous.

As Cointelegraph reported, 2025 as a whole has been marked by long-term whales reducing their BTC exposure. On average, whales have sold over 1,000 BTC per day.

Zooming out, however, the picture changes when it comes to Bitcoin accumulation. In one of its “Quicktake” blog posts on Sunday, onchain analytics platform CryptoQuant gave several reasons to be bullish.

“Today, these early large holders can finally exit the market more easily, and it’s essential that this distribution phase takes place,” contributor Darkfost argued. 

“Now, if we zoom out and look at the bigger picture, whales are still accumulating in this cycle. Here we can see that the 1-Year Change in Whale Holdings has been increasing since 2023.”BTC whale holdings one-year change. Source: CryptoQuant
An accompanying chart confirms that for the past two years, the one-year change in whale holdings has remained positive. 

Even in recent months, the trend has stabilized — pointing to a brighter outlook for prices.

“After a strong month of August, whale holdings dropped sharply from 398,000 BTC down to 185,000 BTC in October, just as BTC was breaking above $123,000. Since then, accumulation has resumed, and their holdings climbed back up to 294,000 BTC as of November 7,” the post continued. 

“So even though some whales seem to be exiting the market, we’re seeing new ones arrive, and existing players are continuing to accumulate as well.”Bitcoin accumulator wallets added a giant 50,000 BTC to their total holdings in a single day as BTC/USD revisited sub-$100,000 levels.

“Over the medium to long term, a portion of whales are still increasing their exposure, and the current trend looks nothing like the distribution phase that unfolded at the end of the 2021 cycle,” Darkfost concluded.

Hold Your Horses, BTC Bulls: Bessent Says Tariff ‘Dividend’ Could Be Tax CutsIndirect measures like tax cuts may not have as much bullish impact as direct checks.Updated Nov 10, 2025, 9:18 a.m. Published Nov 10, 2025, 9:18 a.m.

The cryptocurrency market lit up on Sunday, with social media erupting in cheers as users hoped for new bull runs in bitcoin BTC$106,156.47 and tokens like XRP and DOGE fueled by stimulus checks, following President Donald Trump's announcement of a tariff dividend for low-income Americans on Truth Social.

But the reality, as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent later clarified, is more complicated.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

Bessent explained that the President's tariff dividend might be delivered through the tax cuts from his major economic policy bill earlier this year.

"The $2,000 dividend could come in lots of forms, in lots of ways. It could be just the tax decreases that we are seeing on the president’s agenda — no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security – deductibility on auto loans," Bessent told ABC’s This Week when asked by Trump's social media post.

These indirect measures, as mentioned by Bessent, may not trigger the same immediate surge in bitcoin, altcoins, or consumer spending as direct stimulus checks typically do. That’s because checks provide quick, tangible cash inflows that can rapidly boost demand, while tax cuts tend to distribute benefits more gradually.

It's the case of a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush — the certainty of direct cash inflow generally carries more immediate market impact than the uncertain promise of indirect measures.

Bessent's clarification followed euphoric assumption that the announced dividend would come in the form of stimulus checks, drawing parallels to the COVID-era payments that were closely linked to unprecedented rallies in cryptocurrencies – particularly altcoins.

The narrative lifted market valuations. Bitcoin BTC$106,156.47 rallied from roughly $103,000 to $105,000 on Sunday, extending gains to over $106,500 at one point during Monday's Asian hours.

The leading cryptocurrency has gained 4% in the past 24 hours, with altcoins such as XRP, WLFI, PUMP, UNI, and ZEC rising 8% to 25%, respectively. The CoinDesk 20 Index has gained over 5% to 3,469 points. The rally, however, stalled at around 8:00AM UTC.

It's also worth noting that drawing parallels with 2021 doesn’t quite hold up. Back then, inflation was well below the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, and interest rates were pinned near zero, both factors encouraging increased risk-taking and market exuberance. Today, rates stand around 4% following recent cuts, and inflation remains at least a full percentage point above the Fed’s target.

This raises a crucial question: whether recipients of the tariff dividend—whether through direct payments or indirect measures like tax cuts—will channel those funds into crypto trading or opt to save them instead.

Diageo has appointed Dave Lewis as chief executive officer, after the beverage company parted ways with its former CEO Debra Crew in July.

Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF) has strengthened the value proposition of its Phalaborwa project in South Africa after updating its mineral resource estimate to include yttrium, a heavy rare earth element (REE) that has been under Chinese export controls since April.

The update confirms Phalaborwa as a near-term, strategic source of both medium and heavy REE, including dysprosium, terbium, samarium, europium, gadolinium and yttrium, alongside the critical light elements neodymium and praseodymium.

All have been designated as critical minerals by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in its 2025 list, published on 6 November.

Rainbow said that although its current economic models account only for neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium, it plans to update the valuation as part of its forthcoming Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) to reflect growing demand for the full suite of valuable rare earths.

The company noted that its test work had confirmed Phalaborwa’s capability to produce a mixed rare earth carbonate (MREC) product containing the complete range of medium and heavy REE, referred to as SEG+.

Yttrium and gadolinium have seen a sharp increase in demand since the introduction of Chinese export restrictions earlier this year.

George Bennett, chief executive, said: “Since the imposition of export controls by China in April 2025, we have seen growing interest in securing supply of the full range of restricted REE, where shortages have already developed in the market.

"This includes yttrium and gadolinium, which are increasingly recognised as key REE required by the U.S. and other aligned nations for important strategic uses, including for defence applications.

“Phalaborwa is a unique project in that it hosts commercial quantities of the full gamut of economically important rare earths, including the medium and heavy REE.

"We will therefore look to incorporate the value of the full range of strategic REE into our economic model for the project as part of the DFS.”

China’s export controls have targeted seven REE, samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium and yttrium, as well as permanent magnets containing them.

These restrictions have disrupted global supply chains, affecting sectors from electric vehicles and robotics to defence and aerospace.

While Beijing’s proposed extension of the controls has been delayed for at least a year, the measures have spurred Western governments to accelerate efforts to develop independent supply sources.

Rainbow believes both Phalaborwa and its Uberaba project in Brazil, which is currently undergoing economic assessment, will play key roles in meeting that demand.

At full production, Phalaborwa is expected to deliver around 1,817 tonnes of neodymium and praseodymium oxide per year at 99.5% purity, along with 1,159 tonnes annually of a SEG+ MREC product containing 719 tonnes of total rare earth oxides.

For Immediate ReleasesChicago, IL – November 10, 2025 – Zacks.com announces the list of stocks featured in the Analyst Blog. Every day the Zacks Equity Research analysts discuss the latest news and events impacting stocks and the financial markets. Stocks recently featured in the blog include Caterpillar Inc. (CAT - Free Report) , Komatsu (KMTUY - Free Report) and Terex Corp. (TEX - Free Report) .

Here are highlights from Monday’s Analyst Blog:Should You Buy, Sell or Hold Caterpillar Stock Post-Q3 Earnings?Caterpillar Inc. a mixed performance in the third quarter of 2025, marking a return to revenue growth after six consecutive quarters of declines. The industrial giant reported higher sales across all segments, driven by strong volume growth, though earnings were pressured by rising costs linked to tariffs.

Both the top and bottom-line figures beat the respective Zacks Consensus Estimate. CAT shares have gained 8.6% post results.

The company has gained 57% year to date, outperforming the industry’s 54.9% growth. In comparison, the Zacks Industrial Products sector has gained 7% and the S&P 500 has risen 16%.

Meanwhile, peers Komatsu and Terex Corp. have gained 23.3% and 0.1%, respectively.

Before addressing the critical question of how investors should position themselves regarding the stock, let us dig deeper into the third-quarter results and evaluate CAT stock’s fundamentals.

CAT’s Q3 Highlights: Record Revenue & Backlog, Margins DipCaterpillar posted revenues of around $17.6 billion, an all-time quarterly record. The top line increased 9.5% year over year, supported by a 10% increase in sales volume, a favorable currency impact of 1% and somewhat offset by unfavorable price realization of 1.3%.
Growth was broad-based, up across all regions and segments. Both the Resource Industries and Construction Industries segments returned to volume growth in the quarter.

Cost of sales increased 16% year over year on higher manufacturing costs, including the impact of tariffs. Adjusted operating profit was down 4% to $3.05 billion. Adjusted operating margin was 17.5% compared with 20% in the third quarter of 2024.

Earnings per share stood at $4.95, down 4% from the year-ago quarter owing to tariffs. For more details, read: CAT Q3 Earnings & Revenues Beat Estimates on Higher Volumes.

Operating cash flow was $8.15 billion in the first nine-month period of 2025 compared with $8.64 billion in the prior-year period. Caterpillar ended the quarter with an all-time high backlog of $39.9 billion.

Caterpillar Lifts 2025 Revenue View, Margin Pressure RemainsCAT now expects 2025 revenues to be “modestly” higher compared with 2024, an improvement from its prior projection of “slightly” higher revenues.
Net incremental tariffs are projected at $1.6-$1.75 billion for 2025. Considering this impact, Caterpillar expects the adjusted operating margin to be near the bottom of its target range.

The company maintains its revenue projection at $42-$72 billion, and margins are anticipated between 10% and 22%, per the respective revenue levels.

Caterpillar expects ME&T free cash flow in 2025 to be above the midpoint of its targeted range of $5-$10 billion.

CAT Sees Upward Estimate Revision ActivityEarnings estimates for CAT have moved up for both 2025 and 2026 over the past 60 days.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 indicates a year-over-year decline of 16.26%. The same for 2026 implies 18.8% growth.

How did Caterpillar’s Industry Peers Perform in Q3Terex reported revenues of $1.39 billion, 14.4% higher than last year’s quarter, mainly led by acquisitions. Organic growth was a negative 10%. Adjusted EPS was up 2.7% year over year to $1.50 per share. Revenues missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate, while earnings beat the same.

Komatsu reported adjusted earnings per share of 63 cents, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Earnings were down 6% year over year. Revenues were $6.66 billion, lower than $6.78 billion in the year-ago quarter.

The broader U.S. manufacturing sector has been in a prolonged downturn, contracting for 26 months through December 2024. After a brief expansion in January and February 2025, the ISM Manufacturing Index has been below 50 for eight straight months. The Index registered 48.7% in October, signaling continued contraction. Rising concerns over tariffs led customers to scale back orders.

Caterpillar’s Premium ValuationCAT is currently trading at a forward 12-month P/E of 26.87X, at a premium compared with the industry’s 24.57X. Its Value Score of D suggests a stretched valuation at this moment.

Meanwhile, Komatsu and Terex are cheaper options, trading at a forward 12-month P/E of 11.70X and 8.6X, respectively.

CAT’s Long-Term Growth Drivers Remain IntactCaterpillar’s long-term outlook is supported by expected increases in U.S. infrastructure spending and growing demand for mining equipment due to the energy transition. As miners are increasingly relying on autonomy to increase productivity and efficiency and improve safety, CAT has been focusing on enhancing its autonomous fleet.

In Energy and Transportation, the increased focus on sustainability and the establishment of data centers will drive the demand for Caterpillar’s equipment. CAT has been seeing growth in aftermarket parts and service-related revenues, which generate high margins. The company is on track to double its service revenues from $14 billion in 2016 to $28 billion in 2026.

How Should Investors Approach CAT Stock?Caterpillar’s premium valuation, industry pressures and the projected decline in earnings for the current year suggest caution for new investors.
Existing shareholders should stay invested in Caterpillar’s stock to benefit from its solid long-term demand prospects, backed by infrastructure spending and energy-transition trends, as well as its focus on growing service revenues. The company currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), which supports our thesis.

For Immediate ReleasesChicago, IL – November 10, 2025 – Zacks.com announces the list of stocks featured in the Analyst Blog. Every day the Zacks Equity Research analysts discuss the latest news and events impacting stocks and the financial markets. Stocks recently featured in the blog include Rigetti Computing (RGTI - Free Report) , IonQ (IONQ - Free Report) , and D-Wave Quantum (QBTS - Free Report) .

Here are highlights from Monday’s Analyst Blog:Rigetti Pre-Q3 Earnings Analysis: Buy, Sell or Hold?Rigetti Computing is slated to release third-quarter 2025 results on Nov. 10, after market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for loss per share and revenues is pegged at 5 cents and $2.39 million, respectively.

The earnings estimate, which has remained stable over the past 60 days, indicates 37.5% growth year over year. However, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues suggests a year-over-year modest growth of 0.4%.

The consensus mark for 2025 revenues is pegged at $8.7 million, implying a decline of 19.7% year over year, and the same for loss per share is pinned at 9 cents, suggesting year-over-year growth of 75%. RGTI surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate once, missed once, and met expectations twice in the trailing four quarters, resulting in an average earnings surprise of negative 10.8%.

Q3 Earnings Whispers for RigettiPer our proven model, a stock with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy), or 3 (Hold), along with a positive Earnings ESP, has higher chances of beating estimates. This is not the case here, as you can see below.

Earnings ESP:RGTI has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they are reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.

Zacks Rank:The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.

Factors to Note Ahead of RGTI’s Q3 ResultsRigetti Computing’s third-quarter 2025 earnings performance is likely to remain shaped by continued U.S. public-sector funding uncertainty, with the expiration of the National Quantum Initiative and pending congressional reauthorization keeping federal demand uneven. While bipartisan support suggests that approval is only a matter of time, near-term national lab and agency spending may stay muted. Still, early project execution or new awards could provide a modest revenue lift, and management’s close engagement with DOE and DoD stakeholders is likely to help sustain pipeline momentum as funding decisions move forward.

RGTI’s third-quarter results are likely to reflect early benefits from the rollout of Cepheus-1-36Q, the industry’s largest multichip quantum system. Its strong technical gains, including 99.5 percent median two-qubit gate fidelity and a meaningful step-down in error rates, combined with access through Rigetti QCS and expected near-term availability on Azure, could encourage increased experimentation among commercial and research customers.

This may translate into incremental platform activity during the quarter. With more than $570 million in cash and no debt, Rigetti is positioned to continue scaling system development, while a measured expense outlook suggests stable margin execution.

International and defense-linked programs are likely to emerge as additional Q3 catalysts. Progress under U.K. initiatives, including system upgrades and optical-interconnect development, continues to advance Rigetti’s modular roadmap. At the same time, DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative is expected to narrow Phase 2 candidates before year-end, offering potential upside for Rigetti’s chiplet-based leadership to secure advancement.

Together, these initiatives may improve late-2025 revenue visibility. Overall, the third quarter is likely to remain pressured by federal-timing dynamics, but continued platform adoption, disciplined spending and strengthening government and commercial engagement are likely to position Rigetti favorably into 2026.

RGTI Price Performance & ValuationOn a year-to-date basis, shares of RGTI, IonQ and D-WAVE QUANTUM have gained 125.1%, 37.4% and 237.9%, respectively. The broader Internet Software industry has advanced 10.2% over the same period.

In terms of valuation, RGTI trades at a Price-to-Book (P/B) ratio of 20.13, higher than IonQ (16.93) and D-Wave Quantum (13.99). Despite IONQ and QBTS offering lower multiples, RGTI’s premium reflects stronger growth expectations.

Long-Term Visibility for RGTIRigetti’s recent second-quarter 2025 transcript underscores a focused trajectory toward quantum-scale systems. Management reiterated the goal of delivering a 100+ qubit chiplet-based system with approximately 99.5% two-qubit gate fidelity before the end of 2025, citing its recent rollout of a multi-chip 36-qubit system as a stepping-stone. They further project being “3 to 4 years away” from an approximately 1,000-qubit system at approximately 99.9% fidelity with less than 50 ns gate speeds, when quantum advantage could be achieved.

While this roadmap offers long-term visibility as chiplet-based scaling and fidelity improvements progress, Rigetti builds toward commercially meaningful quantum workloads. The investors should focus on fidelity metrics, qubit counts, system deliveries and commercial uptake rather than only near-term revenues.

On the systems front, Rigetti’s on-premises offering, the Novera QPU, is showing encouraging signs of market adoption. A recent purchase-order announcement revealed $5.7 million in orders for two upgradeable 9-qubit Novera systems, to be delivered in the first half of 2026: one to a major Asian tech manufacturer and one to a U.S. startup focused on hardware/error-correction research.

While not yet a large revenue driver, these sales validate demand for quantum systems beyond government labs, moving into commercial R&D and private sector use. Over the long term, as qubit counts and fidelity improve, the Novera line could transition from niche R&D installations to broader enterprise adoption, offering a scalable hardware revenue stream alongside the cloud business. The visibility of upgradeability and commercial use-cases helps strengthen the hardware growth narrative.

Rigetti is also leveraging major partnerships to bolster its long-term position. A notable example is the strategic collaboration with Quanta Computer Inc., announced in February 2025, which commits more than US $100 million from each partner over five years and includes Quanta’s US $35 million investment in Rigetti. This partnership supports manufacturing scale, chip development and system commercialization.

Concurrently, a recent integration of Novera with NVIDIA Corporation’s DGX Quantum platform underscores Rigetti’s push into hybrid quantum-classical workflows and system-level compatibility. These collaborations suggest Rigetti is not just building chips, but building an ecosystem, one that could accelerate time-to-market and broaden the addressable quantum surface. For long-term investors, this means Rigetti’s success is increasingly tied to and supported by major players in manufacturing and cloud infrastructure.

Should You Buy Rigetti Stock Ahead of Q3 Results?Rigetti’s third-quarter results are likely to reinforce steady progress on its chiplet-based roadmap rather than mark a major financial turning point, supporting a hold view. The company continues to push ahead with its next milestone, a 100+-qubit system with approximately 99.5% fidelity by year-end, and has begun broadening access to its latest Cepheus-1-36Q platform through Rigetti QCS and, soon, Microsoft Azure. These steps strengthen long-term positioning, but near-term revenue will likely remain uneven as U.S. public-sector funding works through reauthorization and commercial use cases scale gradually.

Rigetti’s balance sheet provides a meaningful cushion to continue investing through this development phase, while progress under U.K. NQCC initiatives and the potential move to Phase 2 of DARPA’s benchmarking effort offer incremental upside. Still, visibility into larger, repeatable commercial demand is limited, suggesting current shareholders may remain patient, while prospective investors may prefer to wait for clearer momentum on contract wins and revenue scaling before initiating positions.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 10, 2025) - Questcorp Mining Inc. (CSE: QQQ) (OTCQB: QQCMF) (FSE: D910) (the "Company" or "Questcorp") completed the first tranche of its non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") on October 24, 2025. In connection with closing of the first tranche, the Company issued 14,000,334 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of $2,100,050. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Share") and one-half-of-one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, an "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire an additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.20 until October 24, 2027, subject to accelerated expiry in the event the closing price of the Shares is $0.50 or higher for ten consecutive trading days.

A portion of the Units issued under the first tranche the Offering, representing $2,000,000 are held pursuant to a sharing agreement entered into with an institutional investor, Sorbie Bornholm LP ("Sorbie") and the Company (the "Sharing Agreement"). Funds deposited under the Sharing Agreement are secured in escrow with a third-party. The Sharing Agreement provides that the Company's economic interest will be determined in twenty-four monthly settlement tranches as measured against the Benchmark Price (as defined herein). Unless subject to adjustment, each monthly settlement tranche will total $79,792.

If, at the time of settlement, the Settlement Price (determined monthly based on a volume-weighted average price for twenty trading days prior to the settlement date) (the "Settlement Price") exceeds the benchmark price of $0.1949 (the "Benchmark Price"), the Company shall receive more than one-hundred percent of the monthly settlement due, on a pro-rata basis. There is no upper limit placed on the additional proceeds receivable by the Company as part of the monthly settlements. If, at the time of settlement, the Settlement Price is below the Benchmark Price of $0.1949, the Company will receive less than one-hundred percent of the monthly settlement due on a pro-rata basis. In no event will a decline in the Settlement Price of the Units result in an increase or decrease in the number of Units being issued to Sorbie, but it could result in the Company receiving less than the full amount of the subscription received from Sorbie or in the Company receiving a nominal amount for a particular month.

As an example, the following are the monthly settlement amounts the Company would receive based on varying Settlement Prices:

Settlement PriceMonthly Settlement Amount$0.2449$100,262$0.1949 (Benchmark Price)$79,792$0.1449$59,322For further information concerning the Offering, readers are encouraged to review the news release issued by the Company on October 27, 2025.

What to do next: To join the DexCom class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=28133 https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=45913mailto:or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 29, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) DexCom had made material design changes to the G6 and G7 continuous glucose monitoring ("CGM") systems that were unauthorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"); (2) the foregoing design changes rendered the G6 and G7 less reliable than their prior iterations, presenting a material health risk to users relying on those devices for accurate glucose readings; (3) accordingly, defendants' purported enhancements to the G7, as well as the device's reliability, accuracy, and functionality, were overstated; (4) Defendants downplayed the true scope and severity of the issues and health risks posed by adulterated G7 devices; (5) all the foregoing subjected DexCom to an increased risk of heightened regulatory scrutiny and enforcement action, as well as significant legal, reputational, and financial harm; and (6) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Rumble, the video platform behind Truth Social, will acquire Germany’s Northern Data for about $767 million in shares, swapping 2.0281 new Class A Rumble shares for each Northern Data share, a 12.99% discount to Friday’s close.

The all-stock structure means no cash changes hands; Northern Data holders will own 30.4% of Rumble when the deal completes, expected in the second quarter of 2026, after which Northern Data will delist.

The package includes a $150 million graphics-processing-unit (GPU) leasing agreement with Tether, Rumble’s 48% shareholder and planned anchor customer, plus $200 million of tax-liability support from Rumble.

Rumble will add 22,400 Nvidia GPUs. Northern Data may pay $200 million to shareholders if it sells its Corpus Christi data centre pre-closing.

Bitcoin nears $106,000 as US shutdown deal lifts sentiment.CPI and jobless data may decide Bitcoin’s $110,000 breakout.Fed remarks on QE could trigger fresh crypto liquidity.Multiple US economic events are on the calendar this week, and could either hinder the Bitcoin price’s path to $110,000 or be the tailwinds that drive it further north.

The influence of US economic signals on Bitcoin and crypto remains significant in 2025, with associated sentiment becoming a critical factor in short-term price action.  

US Economic Signals to Watch This WeekWith increasing optimism about a deal to end the longstanding US government shutdown, the Bitcoin price is already showing strength and has climbed above the $105,000 threshold. However, whether it extends further north or retracts may hinge on the following headlines this week.

US Economic Events This Week. Source: MarketWatchFed SpeechesA long list of Federal Reserve (Fed) officials is expected to speak this week. Fed governor Michael Barr speaks on Tuesday, while New York Fed President John Williams, Philadelphia Fed President Anna Paulson, Fed governor Chris Waller, Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic, Fed governor Stephen Miran, and Boston Fed President Susan Collins speak on Wednesday.

Sentiments from these Fed officials, among others, in the week could influence investor sentiment, influencing the Bitcoin price’s directional bias.

US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell recently stated that the Fed will soon expand its balance sheet again. This signaled preparation for a new phase of quantitative easing (QE). 

“Our long-stated plan has been to stop balance sheet runoff when reserves are somewhat above the level we judge consistent with ample reserve conditions,” Fed Chair Jerome Powell said at a recent press conference. “Signs have clearly emerged that we have reached that standard in money markets,” he added.

The news sent crypto investors into a frenzy in anticipation of a surge in fresh liquidity. At the same time, skeptics warned that it could inflate a dangerous bubble.

Against this backdrop, further indications or statements regarding QE down the road could further influence sentiment.

Initial Jobless ClaimsAnother key US economic event to watch this week is the Initial Jobless Claims, which reports the number of US Citizens who filed for unemployment insurance the previous week.

This metric serves as a leading indicator of labor market health. As such, lower-than-expected claims signal economic strength and stability, while higher-than-expected claims indicate weakness, potential layoffs, and increased recession risks.

Higher-than-expected jobless claims are Bullish for Bitcoin, as they signal potential Fed rate cuts. Conversely, lower-than-expected claims are bearish, often signaling delays or cuts.

Notably, however, the release of this data point, or its absence, depends on whether the US government shutdown will have ended by Thursday.

“After 40 days, the Senate unlocked a path to reopen the government. Final vote: 60-40. I voted for the 15th time to end the Schumer Shutdown… I’m frustrated that Oklahomans have faced almost six weeks of unnecessary hardship, travel delays, and missed paychecks. Still, after this important vote, I’m optimistic the Schumer Shutdown will soon come to an end,” said Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin.

Reportedly, eight Democrats voted with Republicans to reach the necessary 60-vote threshold to end the filibuster. This vote has failed 14 times in the past 40 days.

CPIThe October CPI (Consumer Price Index) data may also be released this week, on Thursday, to show how prices rose in October. Like the initial jobless claims, however, this schedule is contingent on the government shutdown ending.

It follows the September CPI, which came in below expectations, showing inflation rose at an annual rate of 3% year-over-year in October.

“We’ve got 4 days until CPI. The narrative leading into it will shape what comes next, another local top or a local bottom,” crypto analyst Killa stated.

As long as inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% target, it keeps monetary policy restrictive, delaying aggressive rate cuts. This is mildly bearish for Bitcoin, which thrives on liquidity.

If CPI rises from the 3.0% seen in September, the persistent inflation could force the Fed to pause or hike, draining risk appetite. Conversely, a drop below the 3.0% would confirm disinflation, boosting rate-cut expectations.  

PPIThe PPI is also contingent on the end of the US government shutdown, as it measures wholesale inflation or the cost that producers pay for goods before they reach consumers.

“This week is all about inflation + politics. Markets are bracing for a double-header: CPI on Thursday and PPI + Retail Sales on Friday, a full read on inflation and consumer strength. These prints will set the tone for risk assets into year-end,” analyst Mark Cullen stated.

Based on these tentative US economic events, the US government shutdown drama remains a crucial factor in the Bitcoin price’s directional bias this week.

Key Takeaways
What is the significance of rising transaction volumes?
Litecoin’s all-time high on-chain volume, combined with whale accumulation, underlined conviction from Litecoin network users.

What can be expected from LTC’s price action?
Price-wise, a rally to $118 and possibly $132 could ensue this month. However, further gains might be difficult.

Litecoin [LTC] bulls could be making another attempt at establishing an uptrend. The rally in July and August took LTC’s price only as far as $134.2, before the bears took over. However, LTC has now reclaimed the $100-psychological level.

This was the first time since the 10/10 crash that LTC moved beyond $100. In fact, the altcoin was trading at $109 at the time of writing. With Bitcoin [BTC] recording a 4% bounce within 24 hours to hit $105.7k, could it be that market sentiment is making a U-turn?

Litecoin recovery imminent?
A post on Santiment Insights recently pointed out that the whale count for LTC has risen lately. There has also been a 6% uptick in wallets holding more than 100k LTC over the past three months – A sign of accumulation from big holders.

That’s not all though as Litecoin’s on-chain volume climbed to $15.1 billion in daily volume. This was an all-time high. The combination of whale conviction and rising on-chain activity could be indicative of the fact that LTC’s rally has room to expand.

At press time, other on-chain metrics seemed to disagree with the strength of the bulls though. Its latest move could face pressure from profit-taking activity soon. Especially as the 180-day MVRV climbed into positive territory for the first time since 10/10.

The mean coin age saw a sizeable drop towards the end of October. Its trend since August did not indicate widespread on-chain accumulation. Rather, it was more neutral than bullish, and the drop below $90 recently gave way to a wave of panic selling.

This might not be a sign of conviction from on-chain participants. The development activity was at zero since the first week of September too.

Together, it didn’t seem to be a wholly bullish trend.  And, it might be safer to be cautious of LTC’s rally, than seeing it as a sign of strength.

Finally, the Fixed Range Volume Profile for 2025 showed that the Value Area High and Low (dotted blue) for LTC were at $131.85 and $94.9, respectively. The Point of Control (red) was at $118.2, with all three emerging as key horizontal levels for traders to keep an eye on.

The press time market structure of Litecoin was bullish, and there has been above-average buying volume in recent days. However, the resistances from $118-$132 will remain formidable obstacles.

Solana rebounds with $137M ETF inflows and a bullish TD Sequential signal, hinting at a potential move toward $200.

 Solana’s price recovery appears to be gathering pace after weeks of choppy trading. The token, which recently slipped below key levels, is now showing signs of stabilization supported by renewed investor confidence. 

Following a week marked by outflows in major crypto ETFs, Solana stood out with strong inflows, suggesting growing institutional interest. Between November 3 and November 7, spot Solana ETFs attracted $137 million, while Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded heavy outflows of $1.22 billion and $508 million, respectively. This divergence highlights Solana’s resilience amid broader market caution.

Analysts Signal Buy as Solana Holds Key SupportAccording to analyst Ali Martinez, the TD Sequential indicator has flashed a buy signal on Solana’s daily chart. This pattern often appears near exhaustion points after extended declines, suggesting that selling pressure may be fading. 

Price action has stabilized around $161, with a tight consolidation range forming between $157 and $165. Maintaining support near $150 remains crucial for confirming a potential rebound. If buyers manage to defend this level, the setup could validate a bullish continuation pattern.

The indicator’s alignment with oversold conditions strengthens the likelihood of an upward reversal. A breakout above $170 would likely encourage further gains, signaling that bullish momentum has returned. However, a slip below $150 could extend the correction toward $142. Consequently, this zone remains a key pivot for short-term traders and institutional participants watching Solana’s technical structure.

Breakout on Lower Timeframes Hints at Stronger MomentumAnalyst curb.sol noted that Solana is breaking out on lower timeframes, targeting a move back to $200 or higher. The token recently cleared resistance around the $160–$165 zone, confirming a reversal structure. 

This shift suggests renewed confidence among buyers and may set the stage for a sustained rally. Sustaining price action above $165 could reinforce the bullish outlook, while strong volume on retests would validate the breakout’s strength.

Market Data Reflects Renewed StrengthSolana trades at $167.45 as of press time, marking a 5.91% daily gain despite a 5.67% decline over the week. Its market capitalization stands at $92.68 billion, supported by a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $5.3 billion.

Latest Solana (SOL) News Today

Zenrock's wrapped Zcash token, zenZEC, has achieved $15 million in trading volume on the Solana blockchain since its launch on Oct. 31. Nov 10, 2025, 6:58 a.m.

Unified custody layer Zenrock's wrapped Zcash ZEC$665.59 token, known as zenZEC, has recorded approximately $15 million in total trading volume since its debut on the Solana blockchain on Oct. 31.

While the number is undoubtedly paltry compared to blockbuster crypto tokens that routinely trade in billions, it signals something more pivotal: the introduction of privacy as a feature in decentralized finance (DeFi), currently leveraging the Solana network, which is known for its faster speed than Ethereum.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

It reflects a growing appetite among traders and institutions for solutions that strike a balance between usability and privacy and security.

Aditya Dave, co-founder of Zenrock, put it best: "Privacy is so core to the ethos of crypto. Over the past two years, tradfi has come in and taken over via stablecoins, acting as institutional buyers of majors. As a result, privacy as a tenet of crypto has been sacrificed."

"Zenrock brought ZEC over to Solana via zenZEC to combine Solana's speed and access with zCash's privacy," he told CoinDesk.

zenZEC, backed 1:1 by native ZEC, is Zcash wrapped via Zenrock’s decentralized multi-party computation (MPC) network. This network generates multiple independent secret shares from the private key, which are then distributed across a network of nodes mostly operated by independent third parties.

In other words, the private key never exists in full anywhere; instead, it is mathematically split, and these distributed nodes collectively sign transactions or generate public keys without exposing the complete key to any single party.

This eliminates single points of failure and significantly enhances overall security. Because it operates off-chain and independently of any specific blockchain, Zenrock’s MPC network is highly compatible with cross-chain (omnichain) applications.

zenZEC is therefore built to integrate seamlessly with Solana’s decentralized exchanges and yield protocols, providing Zcash holders with real on-chain DeFi exposure for the first time in over seven years.

On-chain incentives are already at work on Orca, one of Solana’s leading decentralized exchanges, driving liquidity and adoption. Dave has stated that zenZEC users will soon be able to deploy the token as collateral across decentralized finance protocols on Solana.

ZEC has been on a tear since September, notching a 16-fold rally to $659, according to data source CoinDesk.

Key Takeaways
What’s driving Ethereum’s revenue surge?
Mostly stablecoin transactions, led by Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC. 

Will ETH’s value benefit from the traction?
Tom Lee believes so, but Coinbase analysts still think BTC could dominate in the mid-term.  

Ethereum [ETH] is in the news today after it scored a record high in application revenue.

According to Growthepie’s data, the Ethereum mainnet captured $48 million per day on 14 October from apps, surpassing the previous value of $41 million hit in 2022. 

On the contrary, the L2s captured 14% of the revenue share, starkly contrasting the view that the sidechains are massively eating into Ethereum’s market share. 

Reacting to the update, analyst Joseph Young linked the revenue growth to Ethereum’s “positive flywheel” of scaling. He added, 

“It’s a positive flywheel working: high throughput → low fees → more usage → more value. Ethereum isn’t just scaling. It’s accelerating as an economic machine.”

At the time of writing, however, Ethereum’s revenue had slumped to $35 million per day, amid a broader market cool-off. 

Ethereum revenue vs other chains
A deeper look into the key growth drivers revealed that half of the revenue came from stablecoin swaps, translating to approximately $46 billion in volume in October alone.

When zoomed out on the broader blockchain ecosystem, Hyperliquid [HYPE] appeared to be still punching above its weight on the app revenue front. In the last 30 days, Hyperliquid netted 30% of the total network revenue, while Ethereum took in 21.5%, according to Blockworks data. 

Binance [BNB] came in third place at 16% while Solana [SOL] and Tron [TRX] were tied at fourth with 11%.

On the protocol level, Ethereum’s revenue has been dominated by Tether, Circle, and Sky (formerly Maker). 

Will ETH’s price benefit?
Well, the traction and dominance of stablecoins further validates Fundstrat CIO Tom Lee’s bet on Ethereum’s price upside potential via treasury firm BitMine. The firm currently holds 3.4 million ETH to capture the expected growth in stablecoins and tokenization. 

However, Coinbase analysts have poured cold water on bullish bets for ETH in the mid to long-term. In their monthly outlook, the analysts noted that the post-October crash could focus on BTC before another rotation occurs. 

“We thus anticipate a gradual increase in Bitcoin dominance over the next 2-3 months, which may exert downward pressure on ETH/BTC and alt/BTC pairs before an eventual market rotation.”

Most of the crypto market is well in the green today, but XPR exceeds.

The cryptocurrency market’s revival from the past 12 hours or so has benefited some altcoins more than others. Aside from the massive double-digit gainers from the mid-tear club, XRP stands out as the top gainer from the largest 10 alts.

So, why is this, and can the asset sustain its upward move?

ETF-Driven Hype?
Citing information from Glassnode, we reported yesterday that XRP has shown some warning signs in terms of profit-taking divergance from previous cycles, as long-term holders were disposing of their tokens during price corrections this time, not just rallies. This, aligned with whales selling off XRP en masse, spelled trouble for the underlying asset, which had already retraced to under $2.20 at the time.

However, what took place in the following 12 hours was quite different. On the heels of Trump’s $2,000 dividend promise and his hopeful statement that the US government might reopen soon, XRP jumped by more than 7% and neared $2.50 earlier this morning.

This makes it the top performer from the largest 15 altcoins, according to CoinGecko data. Perhaps a large portion of those gains are due to the latest developments on the ETF front. Numerous issuers continue to update their XRP ETF filings, and those from Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, Canary Capital, and CoinShares have now found a spot on the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s (DTCC) listings.

If the US government’s shutdown indeed ends soon, it could open the doors for a speedy approval of these applications. However, even if it’s not, many of them removed the “delayment amendments” part, which could essentially guarantee that they will launch within the next few weeks unless the SEC formally objects. The first can see the light of day in just three days.

CRYPTOWZRD also outlined XRP’s “slightly bullish” close, especially against BTC. The analyst said another move higher could follow once the XRP/BTC pair starts pushing above the daily lower high trend. This is possible when bitcoin’s dominance starts to decline again.

XRP extended its bullish breakout on Tuesday, soaring 6.2% to reach $2.40 amid a surge in institutional trading activity. The cryptocurrency decisively broke above the key $2.35 resistance level on 169% higher-than-average volume, marking its strongest single-day gain in over a week. XRP briefly hit new cycle highs near $2.43 before consolidating just below its intraday peak.

Market excitement intensified after Canary Capital, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, and 21Shares filed amended S-1 registration statements for spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These filings, now listed on the DTCC, introduced standardized listing language to expedite SEC review under Section 8(a) procedures. Analysts say this alignment could fast-track approval, mirroring the momentum seen during the Bitcoin and Ether ETF cycles earlier this year. The coordinated effort underscores growing institutional appetite for XRP exposure as the network’s fundamentals continue to strengthen.

From a technical standpoint, XRP rallied from $2.26 to $2.40 through three strong impulse waves, producing a $0.19 intraday range. The breakout triggered at midnight UTC when trading volume spiked to 119.6 million tokens. Despite brief profit-taking, XRP maintained structural integrity above the 1-hour 50-EMA, signaling solid underlying demand. Momentum indicators remain bullish, with RSI steady near 64 and MACD showing positive divergence.

Traders are now watching the $2.39–$2.395 support zone, a key pivot for recent breakouts. Sustained closes above $2.40 could propel XRP toward the $2.50 extension and potentially into the $2.54–$2.80 range if ETF approvals materialize. However, failure to defend current support could lead to a pullback toward $2.34–$2.31. With ETF speculation and institutional inflows driving sentiment, XRP’s bullish momentum may continue through the quarter.
