Bitwise Asset Management says ETH$4,187.66 is rapidly cementing its place as a treasury asset. Digital asset treasuries (DATs), once largely bitcoin-centric, are now allocating to ether at scale, creating structural demand that exceeds net new supply, the firm said in a Monday report. “ETH treasuries are no longer a side story. They are becoming a structural pillar in crypto’s capital markets,” analyst Max Shannon wrote. According to Bitwise, that demand is reinforced by real yield from transaction fees and maximal extractable value (MEV), which deepens ether’s scarcity narrative. The largest five treasuries, the firm says, reflect a diverse set of…

Centralized crypto exchanges could disappear within the next decade as decentralized finance (DeFi) aggregators take over, according to 1inch co-founder Sergej Kunz. In an interview with Cointelegraph at Token2049 in Singapore, Kunz predicted that exchanges will slowly transition into frontends for decentralized exchanges (DEXs). “I think it will take like five to 10 years,” he said. Kunz argued that while centralized exchanges are isolated markets, 1inch and its aggregator act as a global liquidity hub. His comments came as 1inch announced a deal with major US crypto exchange Coinbase, integrating its service to provide DEX trading to its users. Kunz…

Ethereum price today is trading near $4,148, extending its decline after breaking below the $4,250–$4,300 support zone. The rejection at the descending trendline and the cluster of EMAs above $4,350 has reinforced bearish pressure, with traders now eyeing the $4,100 and $4,000 levels as the next critical defenses. Ethereum Price Slides Toward Key Support ETH Key Technical Levels (Source: TradingView) The 4-hour chart shows Ethereum trapped inside a descending channel, with repeated lower highs confirming seller control since the mid-September peak near $4,750. The breakdown through $4,255, aligned with the 20 and 50 EMAs, triggered a decisive change of character,…

US broker-dealer Alpaca has launched an Instant Tokenization Network (ITN) that allows institutions to mint and redeem tokenized US stocks directly, a move that could help boost onchain liquidity in a segment of the tokenization market still constrained by structural barriers. The ITN enables institutions to tokenize portfolios with a single API call and redeem tokens in-kind for the underlying shares without settlement delays, Alpaca disclosed Wednesday. The service operates beyond traditional market hours, offering 24/7 access. By allowing in-kind redemptions — directly exchanging tokens for their underlying assets rather than settling in cash first — the network aims to…

Ethereum has struggled to register meaningful upward movement in recent days despite strong investor activity. The altcoin king’s price is being pulled by two opposing forces: heavy accumulation from retail and institutional players, and continued selling pressure from long-term holders. This clash has kept ETH rangebound. Ethereum Exchange Supply Falls Ethereum’s supply on exchanges has steadily declined for months, now sitting at a nine-year low. This signals investors are withdrawing tokens from centralized platforms, a move often linked to long-term accumulation strategies rather than short-term speculation. In just the past month, more than 2.7 million ETH, valued at over $11.3…

After a recent beta, OVERTAKE has flipped the switch on its official marketplace, and this time it’s leaning hard on Sui and a dash of AI to make buying and selling in-game items actually pleasant.

A New York State Senator just introduced a bill to impose new taxes on Bitcoin mining firms. If passed, it would levy progressive taxes, putting the highest obligations upon the largest businesses. The bill focuses on two issues: broader climate goals and consumer electricity prices. Taxes collected from miners would go to subsidize ordinary citizens’ utility bills. New York’s Bitcoin Mining Bill Although NYC’s crypto enthusiasts are cautiously optimistic about Zohran Mamdani’s approach to the industry, the state legislature is a completely different animal. It has enacted hostile laws before, and may do so again. Today, policy watchdogs discovered a…
