Crucially, the Solana debut doesn’t mean $SHIB is leaving Ethereum. The original form of $SHIB is an ERC-20 token. Nor does it mean Shibarium is moving to Solana. Sunrise is simply bringing in the canonical Solana representation of the asset to be able to trade within Solana’s markets. Wormhole Labs-powered Sunrise is an asset gateway designed to bring assets from external ecosystems to Solana. This includes the creation/recognition of a canonical Solana token, provisioning liquidity, and integration with wallets, DEXs, and aggregators. That’s important to note because otherwise multiple unofficial versions of the same cryptocurrency can exist on a blockchain.…
Zacharia had traded at an implied probability of about 1% in the days before the news, the Journal reported. The Kalshi spokeswoman confirmed that the company was probing trades predicting her selection but declined to comment further. An investigation is not a finding that any trader used inside information. Settlement Is Not Withdrawal Kalshi’s exchange rulebook separates settlement from access to funds. Rule 6.4 permits withdrawal requests to be suspended or denied when Kalshi or its clearinghouse determines that the funds are relevant to a pending investigation. The exchange’s published insider-trading policy says accounts flagged for potential insider trading are…
For funds, market makers, proprietary trading desks and other institutional participants, the integration eliminates the need to switch to a separate OKX interface for routine execution and position monitoring. They can incorporate the exchange’s options into existing multi-venue trading and risk-management processes. Options Join the Existing Trading Workflow Talos clients can access streaming prices and order-book data for OKX options, submit and manage orders, view positions and monitor profit and loss in real time. “Talos is an important channel for our institutional clients to reach OKX, and this integration lets them bring OKX options into that same environment, ” said…
We just got a weaker than expected September jobs report, a 2-month downward revision of -60,000 jobs, and weaker than expected PCE inflation data. Meanwhile, the 10Y Note Yield can’t even hold a decline for more than one hour. The bond market is not messing around. However, looking closer at the situation, it becomes apparent that the relevance of Bitcoin on the macro level is far from being over. As seen on the chart below, the $BTC/XAU ratio is pushing higher and looks ready to break above a significant level, which would be the second time since the rotation started…
Ethereum already enforces some financial limits Uniswap v3 has a concrete safeguard today. Its swap router rejects an exact-input swap when the amount received is below the minimum receipt, amountOutMinimum. For an exact-output swap, it rejects spending above the maximum input, amountInMaximum. These are execution-time conditions supplied in the call parameters. The distinction between having a condition and choosing a sound value appears in Uniswap’s own single-swap guide. Its simplified example sets the minimum output to zero, explicitly warns that doing so is risky in production, and points developers toward a software development kit, a price oracle or another data…
By the Numbers Currently, sUSDS is positioned to attract considerable interest from both institutional and retail investors, particularly as the broader market shows signs of volatility. The current price is set at $0, reflecting its status as a stablecoin, while the lack of trading volume indicates a focus on strategic allocations rather than speculative trading. This allocation by Galaxy Digital signals a commitment to leveraging DeFi innovations for traditional finance applications. sUSDS is a yield-bearing stablecoin designed to provide returns on deposits through the Sky Protocol. Galaxy Digital plays a crucial role in the cryptocurrency ecosystem by acting as a…
There’s Major Confusion Surrounding Ethena (ENA) — Will 1.4 Billion or Just 171 Million ENA Be Unlocked Tomorrow?
Of the 171.88 million $ENA in question, 93.75 million is allocated to core contributors and 78.13 million to investors as monthly entitlements. CoinGecko similarly displays figures based on this old monthly calendar. However, on August 27, Ethereum changed the schedule for the remaining $ENA tokens allocated to investors, which were originally planned to be released monthly until March 2028. According to the new schedule, the remaining portion of the investor allocation is planned to be released in a single transaction starting October 5th. Since the project team has not disclosed the exact amount to be released in this transaction, platforms…
According to a Bloomberg report, key elements of the reporting framework include clarified parameters determining which individual and corporate crypto asset users fall under mandatory reporting requirements. The framework also provides technical instructions for platforms regarding customer identification numbers, transaction logs, and account balances. Additionally, it references international standard interpretations where specific technical scenarios are not explicitly addressed under national law. EU-Wide Implementation Further provisions exempt entities that have already registered and fulfilled reporting duties in another EU member state from duplicate filings in Lithuania. The updated reporting directives follow regulatory adjustments implemented earlier in the year governing stablecoins and…
The broader picture was equally stubborn. Bitcoin’s price closed near $84,000 on Sept. 26, fell toward $82,550 to $82,600 on Sept. 28, and then steadied around $83,500 to $83,650 into the month-end. An Oct. 1 bounce pushed it back toward the mid-$84,000s before Friday’s failed breakout. After all that commotion, bitcoin was up only about 0.7% across seven days and still remained roughly 30% below its October 2025 peak just above $126,000. A lot of motion. Not much distance. Polymarket Keeps Six Figures on the Table That hasn’t stopped Polymarket traders from wagering heavily on where bitcoin goes next. Its…
On the 4-hour TradingView chart, $ETH stood at $2,493.31 after falling 0.53% during the displayed period. Its recovery from the recent low had stalled near $2,500, while the latest candles remained below the chart’s falling moving average. Analyst Ella identified $2,500 as the first level buyers need to reclaim in an Oct. 9 post. She described Ethereum’s move from approximately $2,700 to a wick near $2,400 as a decline of close to 11%, with selling accelerating toward the end. Ella said a recovery above $2,500 could ease some of the panic, while failure to regain that level would leave the…
