The immediate contest is between hourly buying momentum and nearby resistance. Price is already above the daily R1, so treating that level as an unbroken ceiling would miss the setup. The next question is whether the hourly advance can extend while the daily momentum deficit continues to narrow. Bitcoin dominance and a whale transfer frame the backdrop CoinGecko puts total crypto market capitalization at approximately $2.77 trillion and Bitcoin dominance at 60.18%. Those levels establish Bitcoin’s weight in the broader market, but they do not establish a change in capital allocation. Fear & Greed Index is not univocal here: one…
Token Metrics The broader crypto market is currently experiencing mixed signals, which could influence the adoption of Chainlink’s CCIP. However, the validation by Kamino is expected to attract more attention from traders looking for secure cross-chain solutions. As the interest in decentralized finance continues to rise, Chainlink’s developments could play a pivotal role in shaping market trends. Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network that enables smart contracts to securely interact with external data sources. Its CCIP is designed to facilitate cross-chain transactions, a feature increasingly sought after in the DeFi landscape. Kamino’s jurisdiction as a security review entity is critical…
The catch is that the number exists only because many strangers are wagering on who will govern you, a premise plenty of Americans now find pretty distasteful. A recent Ipsos poll Reuters published found that 69% of Democrats and 61% of Republicans opposed using prediction markets to bet on election results. They also opposed using prediction markets to bet on other things, like military actions and government policy decisions. The survey interviewed 4,506 US adults from Sept. 30 to Oct. 5 and measured approval of betting, so those answers don’t show whether people trust the forecasts or which objections drove…
Citi’s Striking Report on a Long-Established Altcoin! A Multi-Trillion Dollar Opportunity? Here Are the Details
$AAVE Stands Out with its Collateral Mobility! The report describes $AAVE as a decentralized ecosystem that enables collateral to be moved across the blockchain and used in various financial transactions. The bank’s approach focuses on the efficient use of digital assets in financial transactions, going beyond simply buying and selling them. In traditional financial systems, moving collateral between different institutions, custodians, and market infrastructures can be time-consuming and costly. Tokenization, however, under appropriate infrastructure and regulatory conditions, can enable faster asset transfers and more efficient liquidity management. According to the bank, protocols like $AAVE can offer faster and more efficient…
London’s trading industry is coming home! Revolut already offers crypto through Revolut Ltd in the UK and through Revolut Digital Assets Europe across the 30-country European Economic Area, under a MiCA license from Cyprus that reaches about 450 million people. The company said the Gibraltar unit will support its crypto business in what it calls key expansion markets. In May, Revolut named Michael Schroeder, formerly Coinbase’s head of risk for Europe, as global head of crypto expansion, a role he said includes licensing and market launches. Gibraltar Expects Three DLT Permissions This Week The government expects to issue three distributed…
The trader called the bearish mood “emotional and irrational” and added: “There are definitely times to be cautious of price action. But at this time, with this move, this is not one of them.” Ash Crypto struck a similar note around the same time: “If people are calling for a Black Monday, it probably won’t happen.” Markets rarely move the way everyone expects, the account added, pointing out that fear is a poor basis for decisions. Hours into the supposed crash, the Kobeissi Letter pointed to Nasdaq 100 futures up nearly 1% and an S&P 500 set to add $350…
Section 16 of the card issuer’s terms ensures users can claim their funds for six years after account closure, with processes managed by third parties. However, 1inch has stressed that these withdrawal processes are controlled by external parties, which may change their policies, timelines, or terms. The company noted that it does not have the ability to oversee or confirm these third-party processes. Roles of Crypto Life and issuer The final shutdown date for card functions is determined by Crypto Life and the card issuer. While December 18, 2026, is the last date recommended for withdrawals, 1inch cannot guarantee when…
The answer, as of 2026, is no, but OpenSea is a fundamentally different platform than the one that dominated 2021. OS2, its complete ground-up rebuild launched in February 2025, transformed it from an $NFT-only marketplace into a multi-chain digital asset hub trading both NFTs and fungible tokens. Marketplace fees dropped from 2.5% to 0.5% with OS2 and have been 1% on $NFT sales since September 2025. The SEC closed its investigation in February 2025 without enforcement action. And with over 467,000 monthly active users by May 2025, its highest since mid-2023, and $2.6 billion in October 2025 trading volume, OpenSea…
SEC tokenized stock framework faces issuer pushback as Broadcom, Verizon object to OKX-ICE listing
A Nasdaq spokesperson told the Wall Street Journal that the company does not want its shares trading on a venue that does not display best prices in real time or report to the consolidated tape, which aggregates stock-market trading data. Nasdaq is not among the nine issuers named in OKXICE’s notice. Path to onchain stock trading OKXICE announced on October 5 that it had notified the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of plans to launch the venue, initially targeting shares of 63 U.S.-listed companies. Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the venture’s co-chair, announced the move on X. The venue…
