Resolution Minerals Doubles Drilling at Horse Heaven stocknewsapi
RLMLF
Resolution Minerals Ltd (ASX:RML, OTC:RLMLF) earlier this week announced an expansion of its drilling program at the Horse Heaven Project in Idaho. US CEO Craig Lindsay joined Proactive to explain.

Highlights

Resolution Minerals is doubling its drilling program at the Horse Heaven Project in Idaho.
An amendment to the plan of operations allows drilling to continue until the end of October.
The company expects to complete an additional 8–10 holes and 8,000–10,000 feet of drilling.
Drilling results to date show mineralization similar to Perpetua Resources’ Stibnite mine.
Expanded drilling will feed into a resource estimate planned for 2024.
Resolution Minerals is also acquiring 600 more acres in the Yellow Pine mining district.
The land position now covers 59 km², fully owned by the company.
Upcoming milestones: 20,000 feet drilled, drill results from 20 holes, plus sediment and metallurgical test results.
Commodity backdrop supportive, with gold at $1,700/oz and antimony demand rising.

Drilling Program Doubled Following Encouraging Early Results
US CEO Craig Lindsay said the company secured an amendment to its plan of operations with the US Forest Service, extending the drill season through October. It highlighted that this will allow an additional 8,000 to 10,000 feet of drilling across 8 to 10 more holes. They had originally planned 8,000 feet, meaning the revised program will double the planned work.

Lindsay told Proactive that the decision was driven by encouraging early results. He said the core being recovered showed similarities to mineralization seen at Perpetua Resources’ nearby Stibnite mine. He added that the additional work would contribute to a resource estimate that Resolution Minerals aims to release next year.The company is also consolidating its land position in the Yellow Pine mining district. It has agreed to acquire a further 600 acres, bringing its total holding to 59 square kilometres. Lindsay said the district is becoming increasingly competitive, with several companies seeking ground. He noted that the company had been selectively staking areas considered prospective for gold, antimony, and tungsten.

 

Next Steps
Looking ahead, Lindsay outlined three milestones expected over the coming months. The company aims to complete 20,000 feet of drilling by October. Drill results from 20 holes are expected to start being reported in about four weeks, with updates continuing into the new year. In addition, results from stream sediment sampling and metallurgical testing are anticipated.

Lindsay said the company was working in favourable conditions, with gold at about $1,700 per ounce and antimony in focus as a critical metal in the United States. He described the current period as an active phase with multiple developments underway.

Resolution Minerals has full ownership of its land position and said it is well placed in a district it views as emerging as a significant exploration play.

ETHZilla to Deploy Approximately $47 Million in ETH to Puffer stocknewsapi
ETHZ
Partnership will include integration of Puffer’s validator stack with ETHZilla’s treasuries to restake ETH under the Puffer model

GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands, Sept. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Puffer Finance, the leading innovator in Ethereum infrastructure and based rollups, has announced a strategic partnership with ETHZilla, which will see ETHZilla deploy approximately $47 Million in ETH to Puffer.

The partnership is geared towards setting a new standard for institutional participation in Ethereum, focusing on restaking with an emphasis on security and performance.

ETHZilla selected Puffer for its unique framework, which delivers high yield via restaking, anchored by Puffer’s 2 ETH validator bond, which works as an active insurance layer against validator failures or malicious behaviour. Looking ahead, the partnership will include the integration of Puffer’s validator stack with ETHZilla’s treasuries to restake ETH under the Puffer model, alongside the continued roll-out of Puffer’s vertical infrastructure (LRT, UniFi rollup, Prefconf AVS) in coordination with institutional partners.

Puffer’s offering extends from its Liquidity Restaking Token (LRT) platform, which enhances capital efficiency, to its UniFi-based rollup, delivering composability, and its Prefconf AVS solution, enabling high throughput and settlement scalability. By combining these products, Puffer offers a complete infrastructure stack built for high yield, speed, and effortless composability.

ETHZilla, a publicly traded firm, is rapidly positioning itself as a significant force in Ethereum treasury management. The company has accumulated over 100,000 ETH (≈$450 million in holdings) and is deploying capital into liquid restaking protocols as part of its treasury strategy.

Institutions and treasuries have traditionally had to choose between yield and security. Puffer’s 2 ETH validator bond changes that equation, boosting restaking returns while maintaining strong safeguards. The partnership with ETHZilla underscores a maturing market where security is no longer an afterthought but a core requirement.

“Our collaboration with ETHZilla demonstrates how security and yield can go hand in hand,” said Amir Forouzani, Founder and CEO of Puffer Finance. “By combining ETHZilla’s forward-looking treasury strategy with Puffer’s permissionless validator architecture, we are setting a new standard for DATs and Institutions’ participation in Ethereum restaking, one that prioritises both safety and performance.”

ETHZilla Corporation (Nasdaq: ETHZ) has rebranded from 180 Life Sciences Corp and shifted its focus from biotech to become a leading Ethereum treasury vehicle. The company has accumulated roughly 100,000 ETH at an average purchase price of $3,900–$4,000, now valued at about $450–$460 million. Backed by approximately $425 million raised through a private placement with more than 60 institutional and crypto-native investors, including Electric Capital, Polychain Capital, and GSR, ETHZilla deploys its capital through restaking, staking, liquidity provisioning, lending, private agreements, and yield optimization in collaboration with Electric Capital. It is publicly traded on Nasdaq under the ticker ETHZ (ETHZW for warrants), highlighting its transformation into an Ethereum-focused treasury company.

About Puffer Finance

Puffer Finance is building a vertical infrastructure stack that empowers restaking at scale without compromising on security. With its 2 ETH validator bond model, LRT for capital efficiency, UniFi-based rollup for composability, and Prefconf AVS for high throughput and settlement scalability, Puffer is designed to serve Digital Asset Treasuries, Institutions, and restakers who demand both performance and safety.

hVIVO CEO on growth plans and human challenge trials - ICYMI stocknewsapi
OPORF
hVIVO PLC (AIM:HVO) chief executive Yamin ‘Mo’ Khan talked with Proactive about the company’s unaudited results for the first half of 2025 and its outlook for the remainder of the year.

Khan explained that revenue for the period came in at just over £24 million, supported by a diversified mix of services, therapeutics, and clients.

He added that EBITDA of around £3 million was “helped by the postponement and cancellation fees that we recognised in the first half of this year, together with some of the operational efficiencies that we have already put in place and disciplined cost management.”

Cash at 30 June 2025 stood at just over £23 million, while the weighted contracted order book was about £40 million.

He noted that the broader CRO industry has faced macroeconomic and sector headwinds, particularly in the vaccine field, which has led to postponements, cancellations, and longer sales cycles.

Despite this, Khan said he believes human challenge trials remain highly relevant and could see stronger adoption as drugmakers look to develop medicines faster and at lower cost.

The integration of CRS and Cryo Store has progressed well, delivering cross-selling opportunities and annualised savings. Looking ahead, hVIVO expects to deliver about £47 million in revenue for 2025, with a small single-digit EBITDA loss, and aims to return to growth in 2026.

Proactive: Hello, you’re watching Proactive. I’m joined by hVIVO chief executive Mo Khan. Mo, very good to speak with you this morning. You’ve released your unaudited results for the first half of 2025. Could you give us a high-level overview of the results, please?

Yamin ‘Mo’ Khan: Of course. The results are very much in line with the July trading update we provided two months ago. Revenue for the first half of 2025 was just over £24 million, with a strong mix of services, therapeutics, and client base. This reflects our ongoing diversification strategy.

On EBITDA, we reported around £3 million, helped by postponement and cancellation fees recognised in the first half, alongside operational efficiencies and disciplined cost management. Cash at 30 June 2025 stood at just over £23 million. Our weighted contracted order book was about £40 million. We report weighted numbers as they are more realistic, since we assign probabilities to projects based on their likelihood to proceed.

Proactive: The CRO industry has faced macroeconomic and sector-specific headwinds. How has this affected hVIVO and your 2025 delivery?

Khan: The broader CRO industry has been impacted by macroeconomic and sector-specific headwinds, and we’re not an exception. The vaccine field, in particular, has faced challenges, especially with changes in the US. As a result, we’ve seen postponements, cancellations, and lengthening of sales cycles, especially for human challenge trials. Clients are taking a wait-and-see approach before committing further investment.

That said, human challenge trials remain robust and highly relevant. I believe they will make a stronger comeback, driven by global pricing pressure on medicines. Manufacturers are looking to develop drugs faster and cheaply. For vaccines and antivirals, human challenge trials offer both speed and cost advantages compared to classical methods.

In the non-challenge trial sector, we’ve seen good growth in our clinical services with CRS and our site services in London, as well as in hLab services.

Proactive: One of the major highlights from the first half was the acquisition of CRS and Cryo Store. How is the integration going, and how is hVIVO positioning itself going forward?

Khan: Both integrations are going really well. CRS, a German-based phase one CRO with sites in Mannheim and Kiel, has an excellent, motivated team that has already delivered strong sales. Cryo Store, a smaller enterprise in London, has helped expand our biobank capabilities.

The main aim was to bring people.le, processes, and systems together. Most of that has been achieved, with systems integration ongoing. We expect most integration costs to be finalised by year-end. We’ve already identified about £1 million in annualised savings and achieved about £3 million in cross-selling opportunities.

Proactive: You recently welcomed non-executive chairman Shaun Chilton. How does his experience support the board, and what is the status of the new independent non-executive director?

Khan: I’m very pleased to have Shaun on the board. His experience and expertise are second to none. He previously led a pharmaceutical contract service provider to rapid growth across nearly 100 countries. That experience, plus his board and AIM market expertise, made him an ideal candidate. We believe his input will support our mid- and long-term growth goals.

Proactive: What should we expect from hVIVO for the remainder of 2025 and beyond?

Khan: As we said in July, we expect to recognise about £47 million in revenue for 2025. EBITDA loss should be a small single-digit number, which is an improvement from earlier guidance. I also expect an increase in our sales pipeline across all service lines. We’ve already seen evidence of new sales in both clinical and hLab lines. With normalisation of the human challenge trial market, we’re guiding towards returning to growth in 2026.

Proactive: Mo, thank you very much for speaking with us.

DOW INVESTOR NOTICE: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces that Dow Inc. Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Securities Class Action Lawsuit stocknewsapi
DOW
, /PRNewswire/ -- The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Dow Inc. (NYSE: DOW) securities between January 30, 2025 and July 23, 2025, inclusive (the "Class Period"), have until Tuesday, October 28, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Dow class action lawsuit. Captioned Sarti v. Dow Inc., No. 25-cv-12744 (E.D. Mich.), the Dow class action lawsuit charges Dow, The Dow Chemical Company, a Dow subsidiary, as well as certain of Dow's top executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Dow class action lawsuit, please provide your information here:

https://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases-dow-inc-class-action-lawsuit-dow.html  

You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected].

CASE ALLEGATIONS: Dow, through its subsidiaries, provides various materials science solutions for packaging, infrastructure, mobility, and consumer applications.

The Dow class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Dow's ability to mitigate macroeconomic and tariff-related headwinds, as well as to maintain the financial flexibility needed to support its lucrative dividend, was overstated; and (ii) the true scope and severity of the foregoing headwinds' negative impacts on Dow's business and financial condition was understated, particularly with respect to competitive and pricing pressures, softening global sales, and demand for Dow's products, as well as an oversupply of products in Dow's global markets.

The Dow class action lawsuit further alleges that on June 23, 2025 BMO Capital downgraded its recommendation on Dow to "Underperform" from "Market Perform" while also cutting its price target on Dow's stock to $22.00 per share from $29.00 per share, citing sustained weakness across key end markets and mounting pressure on Dow's dividend. Following this news, Dow's stock price fell by more than 3%, the complaint alleges.

Then, the complaint further alleges that on July 24, 2025, Dow reported a second quarter of 2025 non-GAAP loss per share of $0.42, significantly larger than the approximate $0.17 to $0.18 per share loss expected by analysts and net sales of $10.1 billion, representing a 7.3% year-over-year decline and missing consensus estimates by $130 million, "reflecting declines in all operating segments." Dow's CEO, defendant Jim Fitterling, blamed these disappointing results on "the lower-for-longer earnings environment that our industry is facing, amplified by recent trade and tariff uncertainties," while providing a dour outlook marked by "signs of oversupply from newer market entrants who are exporting to various regions at anti-competitive economics," it is alleged. Dow also revealed that it was cutting its dividend in half, from $0.70 per share to only $0.35 per share, citing the need for "financial flexibility amidst a persistently challenging macroeconomic environment," the Dow class action lawsuit further alleges. Following this news, Dow's stock price fell by more than 17%, the complaint alleges.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Dow securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Dow class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Dow class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Dow class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Dow class action lawsuit.

ABOUT ROBBINS GELLER: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP is one of the world's leading law firms representing investors in securities fraud and shareholder litigation. Our Firm has been ranked #1 in the ISS Securities Class Action Services rankings for four out of the last five years for securing the most monetary relief for investors.

Ethereum Spot ETFs Receive S-1 Amendment Filings from Major Firms cryptonews
ETH
2 mins mins

Key Points:

Major firms file amendments for Ethereum spot ETFs, eye approval.Potential ETF approval anticipated within two weeks.Moves signal growing institutional interest in Ethereum.
Nate Geraci announced the submission of S-1 amendments for spot Ethereum ETFs by Franklin, Fidelity, and others on September 27, 2025, signaling a potential market shift.

These amendments, expected to be approved soon, indicate regulatory progress and could catalyze significant institutional interest in Ethereum, potentially affecting broader crypto market dynamics.

Institutional Push: S-1 Amendments Point to Ethereum ETF Surge
A series of S-1 amendments from notable financial firms like Franklin Templeton and Fidelity have been submitted for spot Ethereum ETFs. Geraci identified this on his social media platform, marking a potential turning point in cryptocurrency asset management frameworks. These amendments, viewed as positive for institutional players, specify collateralization − an often favorable condition for regulatory approval.

Anticipation grows as approval is expected within two weeks. Such a timeline suggests regulatory processes may be well underway, reinforcing market interest in Ethereum and signaling potential shifts in its valuation. Should these ETFs gain approval, Ethereum may witness increased demand, driven by institutional participants eager to capitalize on the potential of digital assets.

“A series of S-1 amendments for spot Ethereum ETFs were submitted today, including from Franklin, Fidelity, CoinShares, Bitwise, Grayscale, VanEck, and Canary.” — Nate Geraci, President, The ETF Store
Market Anticipation Hinges on Approval Timeline and Price Impact
Did you know? When the first Bitcoin ETFs gained approval, it led to major price movements in just weeks, hinting at similar outcomes for Ethereum if approved.

As of the last update, Ethereum (ETH) is priced at $4,027.79 with a market cap of $486.17 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. Recent trends indicate a 3.18% price increase over 24 hours, yet a 9.84% decrease over the last week, underscoring market volatility.

Insights from the Coincu research team suggest that successful ETF launches could catalyze significant market shifts. Increased regulatory compliance and entry of traditional financial players into the space are expected to drive Ethereum’s growth potential and broaden its adoption across diverse sectors, despite recent price fluctuations.

Aave Founder Stani Kulechov Sells $2.38M Ethena Tokens cryptonews
AAVE ENA
3 mins mins

Key Points:

Stani Kulechov’s 4 million ENA transfer to Galaxy Digital.Token sale valued at $2.38 million on September 27.Transfer from Ethena wallet indicates institutional involvement.
Stani Kulechov, Aave founder, transferred 4 million ENA tokens (valued at $2.38 million) to Galaxy Digital, an institutional platform, following their unlock from an Ethena-owned wallet six hours ago.

This token transfer highlights potential institutional liquidity actions, reflecting common strategies for large-scale investors after token unlocks, which may influence Ethena’s market dynamics and investor perceptions.

Stani Kulechov Transfers $2.38M ENA to Galaxy Digital
Stani Kulechov, founder of Aave and investor in Ethena, has reportedly moved 4 million ENA tokens to digital asset platform Galaxy Digital. The transfer aligns with past patterns of founder or investor token unlocks, which often signal increased liquidity and potential market impacts. This action reflects a movement towards institutional-grade custody or market-making strategies.

Galaxy Digital’s involvement emphasizes institutional interest in Ethena’s ENA tokens. Token transfer from a linked Ethena wallet suggests potential broader market distribution or trading actions. This large sale of ENA tokens shifts former long-term holdings into potentially tradable assets, underlining changes in market dynamics.

“Very nice overview of the Aave V4 feature… Interestingly, the Reinvestment Module wasn’t part of our original design a couple of years ago when we laid down the protocol architecture. It actually emerged later as an unexpected, but exciting, last-minute addition.” – Stani Kulechov, Founder, AaveAmidst ongoing speculation, Stani Kulechov has not formally commented on the transaction. Community speculation on forums and social media persists, though no official response has emerged from Aave or Ethena regarding the institutional significance of this transfer.

ENA’s Market Response to Institutional Engagement
Did you know? Following founder token unlocks, DeFi tokens like UniSwap’s UNI often experience price volatility and liquidity changes. The ENA activity signals potential similar short-term adjustments.

Ethena’s ENA token is currently valued at $0.60. With a market cap of $4.11 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $336.55 million, the token shows a recent 3.75% price increase, yet a 11.01% decrease over seven days. Data from CoinMarketCap indicates further fluctuations may occur.

The Coincu research team suggests that institutional engagement, such as Galaxy Digital’s involvement, could lead to increased ENA liquidity and secure trading systems. Market responses typically depend on token-specific dynamics and broader investor sentiment.

Major institutions submitted Solana ETF amendments after SEC demands on staking terms.Speculation on expedited approval grows.Potential positive impact for Ethereum ETFs.
Leading asset managers, including Fidelity and Franklin Templeton, amended S-1 filings for spot Solana ETFs, potentially paving the way for approval following SEC review requests.

This could boost market liquidity and staking dynamics, signaling positive impacts on Solana and possibly Ethereum ETFs, affecting institutional investment flows significantly.

Solana ETF Stakes: Revisions Spark Approval Speculation
A noteworthy submission of S-1 amendments for spot Solana (SOL) ETFs occurred, involving Franklin Templeton, Fidelity, CoinShares, and Bitwise. These actions are based on SEC feedback focused on in-kind redemptions and staking solution mechanics.

This development could signify an expedited process for Solana ETFs approval. Such actions are anticipated to open opportunities for Ethereum ETF products. Institutional asset managers control vast assets, amplifying the market expectation about the launch of staking-inclusive ETFs.

Nate Geraci, ETF Store President, highlighted on X that amendments for Solana were filed and that an approval decision might arrive shortly. James Seyffart, Bloomberg analyst, pointed to positive exchanges between the issuers and regulators.

Solana’s Path Forward: Price Metrics and Market Outlook
Did you know? The February launch of SOL futures on CME mirrored procedures from previous BTC and ETH ETF launches, reinforcing expectations for upcoming Solana products.

According to CoinMarketCap, Solana (SOL) has a price of $204.27 with a market cap of 111,022,141,071.00 and a market dominance of 2.94%. The 24-hour trading volume stands at 10,006,084,706.00, showing a 3.84% increase within the day, but a notable 14.81% decline over the week. The current circulating supply is 543,511,304, with no max supply. This data was last updated on September 27, 2025, at 01:25 UTC.

The Coincu research team suggests that these ETF moves could indicate a shift toward mainstream adoption, showcasing consistent regulatory progress. ETFs opened for staking might become a structural next step for crypto, granting long-term investment opportunities in digital currencies.

Synchronized updates likely just indicate positive back and forth between these issuers and the SEC. – James Seyffart, Bloomberg

SoftBank Group and Ark Investment Management are in preliminary discussions with Tether Holdings SA regarding a significant funding round, potentially valuing Tether at $500 billion as of September 27, 2025.

This funding could elevate Tether’s market position, enhance institutional legitimacy, and impact the stablecoin landscape significantly, affecting cryptocurrencies like USDT, ETH, and BTC.

Institutional Investors Eye Tether’s $500 Billion Valuation
Bloomberg has reported that SoftBank Group and Ark Investment Management are in preliminary discussions with Tether Holdings SA for a significant financing initiative. If materialized, this could become Tether’s most substantial funding round, envisioning a valuation of $500 billion.

The proposed investment is anticipated to reshape Tether’s market standing, enhancing its competitive edge. USDT’s market capital position could be strengthened, influencing the broader stablecoin market dynamics and deployment in digital finance.

Market analysts observe a cautious yet optimistic stance, awaiting further announcements. Katherine Doherty from Bloomberg noted the implications for wider investor interest, indicating that such movements could bolster USDT’s role in both DeFi and institutional finance.

XRP News Today: Bulls Eye $3 as ETF Flows and Vanguard U-Turn Lift Sentiment cryptonews
XRP
Fast forward two years, and Vanguard’s sudden interest in the digital asset space could reflect investor demand, given BlackRock’s success in the crypto-spot space and the floodgates opening for crypto-spot ETFs.

If Vanguard grants access to crypto ETFs, it may also consider launching an XRP-spot ETF, particularly if BlackRock shies away from launching an iShares XRP Trust. The presence of the two largest US asset managers could redraw the crypto landscape for retail and institutional investors.

For context, the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) have combined net inflows of a whopping $74.22 billion. Fidelity’s BTC-spot and ETH-spot ETFs have combined inflows of $14.46 billion, a distant second and a gap that Vanguard may attempt to fill.

Price Action & Technical Analysis: Breakout or Breakdown as October Looms
XRP gained 1.51% on Friday, September 26, partially reversing the previous session’s 6.22% slide to close at $2.7867. The token tracked the broader market (+1.55%) toward key resistance levels. Traders are watching the following technical levels:

Support: $2.7 and $2.5.
Resistance: $3, $3.2, $3.335, and the all-time high at $3.66.

In the near term, several key events could drive price action:

XRP ETF demand.
Spot ETF developments: Approval or delays of XRP-spot ETFs and BlackRock and Vanguard’s positions on XRP-spot ETF filings.
Adoption of XRP by blue-chip companies as a treasury reserve asset.
Regulatory milestones: Ripple’s application for a US-chartered bank license, the Market Structure Bill, and SWIFT-related news may also influence sentiment.

Catalysts & Scenarios
The balance of ETF flow trends, regulatory developments, and institutional demand could determine whether XRP breaks below support levels or breaks above resistance.

Bearish Scenario

GDLC, BITW, and XRPR ETFs report weak inflows or outflows, and BlackRock and Vanguard downplay plans for XRP-spot ETF filings.
SEC rejects XRP-spot ETF applications.
Legislative setbacks or slow progress on crypto-friendly regulations.
Blue-chip companies avoid XRP as a treasury reserve asset.
OCC delays or rejects Ripple’s US-chartered bank license.
SWIFT retains market share in global remittances, limiting Ripple’s market access.

These bearish events could push XRP toward $2.7. If breached, $2.5 would be the next key support level.

Bullish Scenario

BITW, GDLC, and XRPR report robust inflows.
BlackRock and Vanguard file for XRP-spot ETFs, and the SEC approves XRP-spot ETFs.
Blue-chip companies adopt XRP for treasury purposes, and more payment platforms integrate Ripple technology.
Ripple secures a US-chartered bank license, and the Senate passes the Market Structure Bill.
SWIFT gives up market share of global remittances to Ripple.

These catalysts could send XRP above $2.8, with $3 as the next key target. A sustained move through $3 could pave the way toward $3.2.

$154 Million XRP Short Appears on Hyperliquid, Here's Worst Scenario cryptonews

A high-risk play has appeared on Hyperliquid after a trader known for large bets returned with $4.2 million USDC. This was put to work straight away. The account went into leveraged shorts, targeting both Bitcoin and XRP, drawing most attention to the latter.

According to Lookonchain, the trader put together a short position worth 2.78 million XRP — that is about $7.5 million in margin, but they went for 20x leverage, which means the total notional exposure ended up being more than $154 million. 

The average entry was around $2.71 per token, just as XRP tested the lower end of its recent trading range.

What's liquidation price?The liquidation data makes it pretty obvious where the danger zone is. If XRP goes up to $3.06, the position will have to close, which could wipe out millions in collateral. 

HOT Stories

The size of this bet is made even bigger by the background: XRP has been all over the place since it hit $3.70 in August, dropping to $2.70 in September but still way up from earlier in the year. With liquidation only 13% away from spot, there is not much margin for error.

The same wallet is also shorting 1,366 BTC with 40x leverage, but it is XRP where the squeeze potential looks brutal. If it goes beyond $3, it will be a total disaster. Thus, traders all over the market are keeping an eye on this high-risk player to see if they can make it through or if they will end up in the liquidation headlines.

Bitcoin's ‘biggest bull catalyst' may be the next Fed chair pick: Novogratz cryptonews
BTC
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz said Bitcoin’s price could see a significant rally if the next US Federal Reserve chair nominee to replace Jerome Powell is exceptionally dovish.

“That’s the potential biggest bull catalyst for Bitcoin and the rest of crypto,” Novogratz said in an interview with Kyle Chasse published to YouTube on Friday.

“Fed’s cutting when they shouldn’t be, and you put in a massive dove,” Novogratz said, adding that may lead to “your blow-off top” moment for Bitcoin (BTC).

“Can Bitcoin get to $200K? Of course it could…Because it becomes a whole new conversation if that happens.”Novogratz emphasized that while the potential scenario of aggressive rate cutting would be bullish for crypto, it would come at a steep cost. “Do I want it to happen? No. Why? Because I kind of love America,” he said.

Novogratz says it will not be a good scenario for the US“It would be really shitty for America,” he said, adding that it is possible the Fed is going to lose independence.

A dovish stance from the Federal Reserve is generally anticipated to weaken the US dollar. However, it is often perceived as a bullish catalyst for Bitcoin and other risk assets, as traditional assets such as bonds and term deposits become less lucrative to investors.

Bitcoin is trading at $109,450 at the time of publication. Source: CoinMarketCapEchoing a similar sentiment to Novogratz, Daleep Singh, vice chair and chief global economist at PGIM Fixed Income, recently said, “There’s a very decent chance that the FOMC looks and acts quite differently” after Powell’s term expires in May 2026.

“On a cyclical basis, I think the risks to the dollar are skewed to the downside,” Singh added.

Novogratz says it may trigger an “oh shit moment”Novogratz warned that if Trump follows through on his pledge to appoint “a dove,” it could trigger an “oh shit moment.”

“Gold skyrockets…Bitcoin skyrockets,” Novogratz said.

“It was priced in that he was going to pick somebody dovey, but no one is quite sure,” he added.

Novogratz said the potential scenario probably won’t be reflected in the market until the decision is officially announced. “I don’t think the market will buy that Trump’s going to do the crazy, until he does the crazy,” Novogratz said.

Trump has reportedly narrowed his shortlist for the next Federal Reserve chair to three candidates: White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller and former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh.

“You could say those are the top three,” Trump told reporters at the Oval Office on Sept. 6.

The Fed delivered its first rate cut of 25 basis points in September, a move largely anticipated by the market, but Waller had been urging for a rate cut in July.

XRP ETF Approval Odds Surge to 99%, but Expert Says ‘ETFs Will Be Irrelevant in 5 Years' cryptonews
XRP
XRP is making headlines again as investors look ahead to a possible green light from the SEC and the launch of an ETF. On prediction site Polymarket, traders now place the odds of a Ripple ETF being approved in 2025 at more than 99 percent. With expectations running high, one expert has stepped in with an unexpected take.

Crypto ETFs have been praised as a gateway for traditional investors, but one industry voice says their relevance will not last long. Hugo Philion, co-founder of the Flare Network, said he expects ETFs to be “irrelevant” within five years.

On the Paul Barron Podcast, Philion explained that older generations, including baby boomers and Gen X, control most wealth today. They prefer familiar financial products such as ETFs, which helps explain the strong demand for spot crypto funds. But he argued that younger generations are more comfortable holding assets directly on blockchains, and that shift will reshape how money flows into crypto.

He added that broader economic pressures could speed up the move away from ETFs. Unfunded retirement liabilities, growing government debt, and financial uncertainty may push investors to adopt blockchain-based finance more quickly than expected.

According to Philion, the market’s celebration around ETF approvals is short-sighted. He said that the future lies in direct on-chain ownership, not traditional wrappers. If his view proves correct, today’s enthusiasm for ETFs could look outdated within a few years.

“I think the rejoicing around ETFs is hilarious because I think in five years, ETFs will be irrelevant,” Philion said.

Solana Freefall Ahead? SOL Price Risks Drop To $150 If This Critical Support Fails cryptonews
SOL
After hitting a one-month low, Solana (SOL) has bounced from a critical support zone and is attempting to reclaim a crucial psychological barrier before potentially resuming its bullish rally. However, some analysts suggested that the cryptocurrency could retest new lows if the market volatility persists.

Solana Price Retest Major Support
On Thursday, Solana lost the $200 level as support after closing the day below this level for the first time in nearly a month. The cryptocurrency has been trading inside the $120-$220 price range since early February, finally breaking out of this range in mid-September.

A week ago, the market’s bullish momentum and strong corporate treasury purchases pushed SOL’s price to an eight-month high of $253, leading many investors to anticipate the long-awaited rally to higher levels.

However, this week’s pullbacks have sent most cryptocurrencies below crucial levels, with Bitcoin and Ethereum dropping to $108,000 and $3,800, respectively. Meanwhile, Solana has seen a 20% decline in the weekly timeframe, losing the $200 level.

Analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems asserted that SOL was “in freefall after that nasty deviation back into the range.” If Solana fails to hold the current $190-$200 range, the analyst considers it would be “very difficult” to find strong support before the demand zone around $150, a level not seen since the start of July.

Similarly, market watcher Wise Crypto also noted that Solana could be in a make-or-break retest, as it retests a critical support zone and the overall market still shows some signs of weakness.

According to the post, SOL has been trading within an ascending channel since April, bouncing between the upper and lower boundaries throughout this period.

If the market’s recent volatility continues, the cryptocurrency could retest the channel’s support zone, around the $177-$188 levels. “If this zone breaks, the next major support is down below $150 — so caution is key,” they added.

SOL Bounce Eyes $200 Reclaim
Despite the volatility, Wise Crypto also signaled that “Stochastic RSI is signaling oversold conditions, suggesting a potential bounce could be on the horizon.” As a result, if SOL holds this support area, a move toward the $250 barrier could follow.

As Solana approached its major ascending trendline, Crypto Batman noted that SOL has bounced from this level each time it has retested it, suggesting that “In the midst of chaos, you have to look at things from a different perspective.”

Notably, SOL bounced from the recent lows on Friday Morning and is currently attempting to break above the $200 psychological barrier.

Nonetheless, the cryptocurrency must daily close above this key level and continue to hold it over the weekend to transform the pullback into a downside wick deviation in the weekly timeframe.

Ted Pillows added that if this level is reclaimed, the $208-$210 area, near the 10-day Moving Average (MA), would be the next target.

According to the market watcher, reclaiming and holding above that level would be the first bullish sign, which could potentially push Solana’s price toward $216–$220, near the 30-day MA.

As of this writing, SOL trades at $199, a 1.4% increase in the daily timeframe.

Klarna Shares Drop Below IPO Price Amid Widespread Tech Slump stocknewsapi
KLAR
By

PYMNTS
 | 
September 26, 2025

 | 

Klarna’s shares reportedly dropped below their initial public offering price for the first time Friday (Sept. 26) amid a widespread weakening of technology stocks.

The company’s stock fell as low as $38.31 Friday, below the $40 IPO price on its Sept. 10 trading debut, Bloomberg reported Friday.

This week saw a slowdown in technology stocks after a record-setting rally, according to the report, and Bloomberg attributed this to some economic data that suggested the Fed might not make further interest rate cuts.

Shares of FinTech companies Affirm and Block were also down Friday, per the report.

“FinTech stocks, including Klarna, are sensitive to macroeconomic factors like interest rates and regulatory developments,” Diksha Gera, a Bloomberg Intelligence analyst, said in the report. “Although the Fed started cutting rates in 2025, any hint of slower-than-expected cuts or yields rising could pressure valuations and sentiment as higher yields can increase their borrowing costs.”

PYMNTS reported Friday that the Fintech IPO Index declined 3.5% this past week, erasing some of its recent gains.

Circle’s shares shrank 11.2%, DeFi Development’s shares lost 15.7%, Flywire’s stock gave up 1.9%, Sezzle shares lost 5.9% and nCino’s stock declined 7.8%.

It was reported Thursday (Sept. 25) that there was also a widespread cryptocurrency rout that wiped out more than $140 million in market value since the beginning of the week.

As of Thursday, the price of ether had dropped by as much as 4.7% to its lowest point in almost seven weeks, while bitcoin fell 1.7%. Ether is the second most popular cryptocurrency, and bitcoin is the most popular form of crypto.

Rachel Lucas, a crypto analyst at BTC Markets, said ether’s downturn came as “institutional inflows cooled” with “technical signals pointing to short-term pressure.”

When Klarna went public on Sept. 10, its shares opened at about $52, peaked near $57 and ultimately settled around $45.82, a 15% gain over its IPO price.

The company reported Thursday that more than 1 million Americans had signed up for its Klarna Card in the 11 weeks since its July 4 launch in the United States. The card gives users the choice of paying in debit or pay later mode.

In the settlement filed in the U.S. District Court in South Carolina, Boeing agreed to pay at least $50,000 to Barnett's mother, who agreed to drop her claims that the company contributed to her son's death by suicide on March 9, 2024.

FTNT INVESTOR DEADLINE: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces That Fortinet, Inc. Investors With Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Class Action Lawsuit stocknewsapi
FTNT
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Fortinet, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTNT) common stock between November 8, 2024 and August 6, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), have until November 21, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Fortinet class action lawsuit. Captioned Oklahoma Firefighters Pension and Retirement System v. Fortinet, Inc., No. 25-cv-08037 (N.D. Cal.), the Fortinet class action lawsuit charges Fortinet as well as certain of Fortinet’s top current and former executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Fortinet class action lawsuit, please provide your information here:

https://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases-fortinet-inc-class-action-lawsuit-ftnt.html

You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected].

CASE ALLEGATIONS: Fortinet provides cybersecurity and convergence of networking and security solutions.

The Fortinet class action lawsuit alleges that: (i) defendants knew that the refresh cycle would never be as lucrative as they represented, nor could it, because it consisted of old products that were a “small percentage” of Fortinet’s business; (ii) defendants misrepresented and concealed that they did not have a clear picture of the true number of FortiGate firewalls that could be upgraded; and (iii) while telling investors that the refresh would gain momentum over the course of two years, Fortinet misrepresented and concealed that it had aggressively pushed through roughly half of the refresh in a period of months, by the end of the second quarter of 2025.

The Fortinet class action lawsuit further alleges that on August 6, 2025, Fortinet revealed during its earnings call that Fortinet was already “approximately 40% to 50% of the way through the 2026 upgrade cycle at the end of the second quarter [of 2025].” The complaint also alleges that defendants: (i) admitted that “it’s hard[] for us to predict” the total number of FortiGates requiring an upgrade; (ii) suggested customers had “excess [firewall] capacity from [purchasing firewalls in] prior years” and therefore did not need to upgrade; and (iii) revealed that the refresh could not have had “much business impact” as it consisted of only a “small percentage” of Fortinet’s business because the products were “12 to 15 years” old and had been sold at a time when Fortinet’s business was 5-10 times smaller, meaning that the total number of FortiGates eligible for an upgrade was inherently limited. On this news, the price of Fortinet common stock fell more than 22%, according to the complaint.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Fortinet common stock during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Fortinet class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Fortinet class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Fortinet class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Fortinet class action lawsuit.

On May 1, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") filed a False Claims Act complaint against the Company, alleging that, "[f]rom 2016 through at least 2021" it had received "tens of millions of dollars" in "illegal kickbacks" from health insurance companies in exchange for steering Medicare beneficiaries to enroll in the insurers' plans, and that, in exchange for kickbacks, the Company engaged in a conspiracy with major insurers to illegally discriminate against beneficiaries deemed to be less profitable, including those with disabilities. The DOJ further alleged that the Company made materially false claims by stating it offers "unbiased coverage comparisons" when in fact it "repeatedly directed Medicare beneficiaries to the plans offered by insurers that paid them the most money, regardless of the quality or suitability of the insurers' plans."

On this news, the price of SelectQuote's shares fell $0.61, or 19.2%, to close at $2.56 per share on May 1, 2025, on unusually heavy trading volume. 

The case is Pahlkotter v. SelectQuote, Inc., et al., No. 25-cv-06620.

Choice Hotels International: Shares Look Cheap Amid Soft Domestic Demand stocknewsapi
CHH
Shares of Choice Hotels International have been relatively soft this year, underperforming peers on the back of soft demand in the important U.S. market. Like several of its peers, Choice has downgraded 2025 guidance, with revenue per available room now seen falling this year. Choice can still lean on other drivers of earnings growth, including room count and royalty rate expansion, not to mention share buybacks.

LNTH INVESTOR DEADLINE: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces that Lantheus Holdings, Inc. Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Investor Class Action Lawsuit stocknewsapi
LNTH
, /PRNewswire/ -- The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Lantheus Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNTH) securities between February 26, 2025 and August 5, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), have until Monday, November 10, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Lantheus class action lawsuit. Captioned Margolis v. Lantheus Holdings, Inc., No. 25-cv-07491 (S.D.N.Y.), the Lantheus class action lawsuit charges Lantheus and certain of Lantheus's top executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Lantheus class action lawsuit, please provide your information here:

https://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases-lantheus-holdings-inc-class-action-lawsuit-lnth.html  

You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected].

CASE ALLEGATIONS: Lantheus develops, manufactures, and commercializes diagnostic and therapeutic products that assist clinicians in diagnosis and treatment of heart, cancer, and other diseases worldwide. According to the complaint, Lantheus's key Radiopharmaceutical Oncology product is Pylarify, a PET imaging agent used to assist in both diagnosing and subsequently treating prostate cancer.

The Lantheus class action lawsuit alleges that defendants created the false impression that they possessed reliable information pertaining to Lantheus's projected revenue outlook and anticipated growth while also minimizing risk from competition and pricing dynamics, seasonality, and macroeconomic fluctuations. In truth, according to the complaint, Lantheus's optimistic reports of Pylarify's sales growth potential and pricing normalization fell short of reality and Lantheus, despite defendants' claims, did not have an accurate understanding of the pricing and competitive dynamics of Pylarify's market.

The Lantheus class action lawsuit further alleges that on May 7, 2025, Lantheus reported its first quarter 2025 results, disclosing that Pylarify sales had decreased year-over-year due to an alleged "temporal competitive disruption." The complaint alleges that defendants further reduced their previous full-year projections due to Pylarify's shortfall, reducing the "year-over-year range to flat-to-low single-digit percent growth for the full year versus our prior view of low-single-digit to mid-single-digit growth." On this news, the price of Lantheus stock fell more than 23%, according to the complaint.

Then, on August 6, 2025, the Lantheus class action lawsuit further alleges that Lantheus again announced disappointing results and significantly reduced growth expectations for Pylarify, which had fallen 8.3% year-over-year, and slashed fiscal year 2025 growth projections further. On this news, the price of Lantheus stock fell nearly 29%, according to the complaint.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Lantheus securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Lantheus class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Lantheus class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Lantheus class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Lantheus class action lawsuit.

SWIFT Taps Linea for Blockchain Messaging Pilot cryptonews
LINEA
The pilot reflects a push to balance innovation, compliance, and operational scale.SWIFT and major banks including BNP Paribas and BNY Mellon are testing Linea for on-chain messaging.Executives say the industry has moved beyond experiments and must address legal finality.SWIFT, the global financial messaging network, is working with over a dozen banks to test on-chain messaging using Linea, the Ethereum layer-2 platform developed by ConsenSys.

Institutions including BNP Paribas and BNY Mellon are participating in the initiative, which is also considered a stablecoin-like settlement token.

SWIFT and Global Banks Begin Linea Blockchain Messaging Trial
A source within one bank said the project could mark “a technological transformation for the international interbank payments industry,” though development will take several months before outcomes become clear.

SWIFT connects over 11,000 financial institutions, transmitting payment instructions but not funds. Its centralized model depends on intermediaries and legacy rails, which critics argue add complexity and delay. The pilot seeks to determine whether Linea’s zk-rollup architecture—designed for faster, scalable transactions with privacy-focused cryptography—can streamline messaging and settlement while meeting regulatory standards.

The initiative follows SWIFT’s broader blockchain efforts. The network recently announced new rules for retail cross-border payments to increase speed and predictability. Global banks plan to trial live digital asset transactions on their infrastructure from 2025.

Earlier pilots showed blockchain interoperability, with UBS and Chainlink helping SWIFT complete tokenized asset transfers. The network also explored global digital asset transaction frameworks and considered integration with the XRP Ledger.

Linea, which launched its token this year to support a $72 billion decentralized finance ecosystem, positions itself as an enterprise-ready environment for banks seeking compliance and scalability.

In a recent panel discussion, SWIFT executives also addressed the pilot and the broader digital asset shift, and executives stressed that the industry is moving into a new phase.

We’re beyond experiments now. The question is how to scale—regardless of whether the instrument is a tokenized deposit, a CBDC, a stablecoin, or a tokenized fund. It comes down to what exactly we’re connecting and where the value shows up.

Tom Zschach, SWIFT
Scaling Blockchain Messaging Faces Legal and Compliance Hurdles
Supporters argue blockchain messaging could enhance settlement efficiency, programmability, and transparency. However, hurdles remain. Banks face steep integration costs, operational risks, and regulatory scrutiny around token issuance and transaction data. One critical obstacle is legal certainty.

Settlement is a legal construct, not a technical one. We need to align a blockchain’s confirmation model with legal finality. Without that alignment, scaling will be difficult.

Tom Zschach, SWIFT
The comment highlights why standards, rulebooks, and jurisdictional clarity are essential for recognizing on-chain settlement in court.

While full adoption is uncertain, the pilot signals SWIFT’s intent to align its infrastructure with emerging digital asset markets. The outcome could determine whether blockchain becomes embedded in global interbank communication.

Tether Eyes $500B Valuation Amid Explosive Stablecoin Market Growth cryptonews
USDT
Tether eyes $20 billion funding at a massive $500 billion valuation from institutional giantsStablecoin market cap explodes past $275B, driven by high institutional adoption and utilityRapid adoption of stablecoins creates financial risks, challenging central bank interest rate controlThe global stablecoin market is surging in 2025, with institutional giants like SoftBank and ARK Investment pursuing investments in infrastructure players like Tether.

While Tether and other stablecoins continue to expand, analysts warn that rapid adoption carries financial risks, particularly to central banks’ ability to control interest rates and maintain exchange rate stability.

Tether’s Expansion and Investor InterestSponsored

Tether is reportedly exploring a $20 billion funding round, which could value the company at around $500 billion, potentially placing it among the world’s most valuable private firms. Tether aims to use the capital to diversify beyond its core stablecoin business, which currently supports a USDT supply exceeding $170 billion.

SoftBank has been steadily expanding its cryptocurrency investments, while ARK Invest, led by Cathie Wood, has pursued multiple high-profile crypto funding deals in recent years.

If completed, the round would mark Tether’s most extensive search for external capital yet. Cantor Fitzgerald, a shareholder in Tether, is advising on the potential transaction. Market observers say the move reflects the stablecoin issuer’s dominant position and growing institutional confidence in digital asset infrastructure.

SoftBank and Ark Investment Management are in talks to join a major funding round for Tether Holdings. The deal could value the company at up to $500bn, w/Tether aiming to raise $15–20bn by selling ~3% of the firm. Backing from SoftBank and Ark would give Tether fresh momentum &… pic.twitter.com/LF7bc8v8Sl

— Holger Zschaepitz (@Schuldensuehner) September 26, 2025

Supported by large US Treasury holdings and a growing Bitcoin reserve, Tether has emerged as one of the most profitable firms in crypto. In Q2 2025, it posted $4.9 billion in net income, up 277% from a year earlier.

Institutional Cash Pours In as Market Explodes
The stablecoin sector is undergoing an explosive growth phase in 2025, driven by unprecedented institutional adoption and emerging regulatory clarity worldwide. According to analysis cited in Coinbase’s August report, the total market capitalization of stablecoins has surged, reaching over $275 billion. Some analysts project the market could reach $1 trillion by 2028.

This growth is fueled by the stablecoins’ utility in cross-border payments, which are used for over 43% of B2B transactions in Southeast Asia. This year marks an inflection point where institutions are actively integrating stablecoins; a Fireblocks survey indicated that 90% of surveyed institutions are now taking action on stablecoin integration, embracing them for treasury management and international settlement.

Sponsored

Beyond Tether’s ambition, other major players are reshaping the landscape: nine major European banks (including ING, UniCredit, and Danske Bank) have joined forces to launch a MiCA-compliant euro-denominated stablecoin, and companies like Finastra have partnered with Circle to integrate stablecoins into bank payment flows.

The movement is gaining momentum in Asia as well. South Korea’s major financial institutions are deeply engaged in preparing for the stablecoin era, aggressively pursuing a “Two-Track Strategy” involving both internal development and strategic partnerships to launch their own Korean Won-backed stablecoins.

For example, a group of at least eight major banks, including KB Kookmin Bank and Shinhan Bank, is reportedly forming a consortium to create a joint venture and infrastructure specifically for the co-issuance of a Won-backed stablecoin. Furthermore, leading banks are meeting directly with foreign stablecoin issuers, such as the US company Circle (USDC issuer), to discuss cooperation, while simultaneously establishing internal task forces to conduct Proof-of-Concept (PoC) testing for real-world settlement using their own digital currency systems.

Rising Stablecoin Use Poses Financial Risks
A new report from Moody’s Ratings, published on September 25, warns that digital currency ownership has surged globally, reaching 562 million people by 2024, up 33% from the previous year. Emerging markets in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America are leading adoption, often using cryptocurrencies for inflation hedging, remittances, and financial inclusion.

The rapid expansion of stablecoins introduces systemic vulnerabilities. Widespread use could reduce central banks’ control over interest rates and currency stability, a trend termed “cryptoization.” Banks may experience deposit erosion as savings shift into stablecoins or crypto wallets, and underregulated reserves could trigger liquidity runs requiring government intervention.

Cryptocurrency adoption carries different risks in different markets / Source: Moody’s Ratings
However, uneven regulatory frameworks leave countries exposed. Advanced economies are beginning to regulate stablecoins more rigorously, with Europe implementing MiCA and the US passing the GENIUS Act, while Singapore applies a tiered framework. In contrast, many emerging markets lack comprehensive rules, and fewer than one-third of countries have full-spectrum regulation in place.

Crypto Suffers Nearly $1 Billion In Liquidations As Bitcoin Extends Decline cryptonews
BTC
The cryptocurrency derivatives market has been hit hard by the latest bearish continuation in Bitcoin and others as mass liquidations have hit exchanges.

Crypto Liquidations Have Neared $1 Billion Over The Last 24 Hours
According to data from CoinGlass, a massive amount of liquidations have occurred in the cryptocurrency derivatives market during the past day. A “liquidation” occurs when an open contract exceeds a certain loss threshold defined by the exchange and undergoes forceful closure.

Due to the volatility that Bitcoin and other assets have experienced over the last 24 hours, a huge amount of contracts have crossed this threshold. Below is a table that breaks down the relevant numbers related to these liquidations.

Looks like longs have been hit the heaviest in this squeeze | Source: CoinGlass
As is visible, cryptocurrency liquidations have totaled at $967 million inside this window, which is a pretty significant amount. Since the price action in the past day has majorly been in the bearish direction, the positions most affected would be the bullish bets. And indeed, as the data shows, $849 million of the liquidations, representing almost 88% of the total, involved long investors.

Ethereum has recently been dominating speculative activity in the market, and it seems the asset has topped the charts during this derivatives flush as well, with $309 million in liquidations. Bitcoin has come second with around $246 million.

The breakdown of the liquidations by symbol | Source: CoinGlass
A mass liquidation event like this latest one isn’t a rare occurrence in the cryptocurrency sector, mainly due to two reasons: coins can be volatile on the regular and extreme amounts of leverage can be easily accessible. Such an event, where a cascade of liquidations occurs, is known as a squeeze.

As longs were the party most seriously affected in the latest squeeze, the event would be termed as a long squeeze. This is the second long squeeze that the market has suffered this week, with the other one arriving during Bitcoin’s Monday plummet to $112,000.

Here is a chart shared by on-chain analytics firm Glassnode that shows how the previous long squeeze compared against this latest one for Bitcoin:

According to Glassnode, the two large long squeezes could actually help prevent more such events in the near future. “This flush of leverage reflects a broad deleveraging event, often resetting market positioning and easing the risk of further cascades,” explains the analytics firm.

It now remains to be seen whether the liquidations will be enough to bring a calm to the market, or if there is more volatility ahead for Bitcoin and others.

Bitcoin Price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $109,200, down more than 6% over the last week.
