The Numbers Currently, Base has not reported any trading volume or price action, indicating a focus on internal development rather than market fluctuations. This aligns with the broader crypto environment, which has shown mixed signals across various assets. The emphasis on building and developer engagement on Base suggests that the platform’s growth may not be immediately reflected in market metrics but could contribute to long-term value creation. Base is a layer-2 blockchain solution designed to enhance Ethereum’s capabilities, focusing on scalability and usability for developers. This recent announcement comes amid a competitive landscape for blockchain platforms, highlighting Base’s commitment to…

As newly mined supply becomes increasingly insignificant relative to the existing market, Woo argued that the halving’s ability to dictate $BTC’s broader price cycle weakens. Instead, the asset may begin moving more closely with TradFi’s six-to-eight-year short-term debt cycle. The halving framework worked remarkably well for much of bitcoin’s history. Now, though, the market structure has changed dramatically, perhaps mostly from the US spot Bitcoin ETFs. Current data shows that these financial products hold close to 1.3 million $BTC, which is over 6% of the circulating supply. Public companies with at least 1,000 $BTC currently own over a million units.…

As Cryptopolitan reported, reflection tokens were one of the new trends that caused a wave of launches. Along with the Robinhood chain, Solana was the main venue for memes reflecting other assets. The recent rise in launches boosted the revenues of the Raydium DEX, as well as the emerging StonkFun launchpad. Unlike regular memes, the new wave of reflection tokens seeks multiple types of pairings, including tokenized stock, RWA perpetual futures, other tokens, NFTs, and blue-chip crypto assets. This new model was adopted quickly and seems to be entering an even more active stage of user FOMO, automation, and competition.…

What the Data Shows Despite the overall market showing mixed signals, Solana’s continuous innovation through tools like the AI Copilot positions it favorably for developers seeking efficiency. The current lack of trading volume may suggest a cautious market, but the enhancements to developer tools indicate a forward-looking approach that could attract new projects and investment as the ecosystem matures. Solana’s unique architecture, combining Proof of Stake and Proof of History, further supports its attractiveness in the competitive blockchain arena. Solana is a high-performance blockchain that integrates Proof of Stake with Proof of History, enabling faster and cheaper transactions. The jurisdiction…

Each of those approaches enters the price-prediction contest against a very shallow, dumbed-down opponent: naive forecasts that use only current market information. A price forecast can use today’s price, a return forecast can use zero, and a direction forecast can use a random walk. Much of the academic literature has struggled to beat it once a model leaves the period in which it was designed. A May 2026 preprint reviewing Bitcoin prediction research by Carlos Baquero of the University of Porto reached a pretty sobering conclusion: across the peer-reviewed record, no model had demonstrated durable superiority over the appropriate naive…

Across all spot $XRP ETFs, total net assets stood at approximately $1.77 billion. Cumulative historical net inflows reached about $1.79 billion, while $XRP represented approximately 1.80% of the funds’ net asset value according to the reported data. $XRP ETF inflows extend recent buying Trend The latest inflows follow another positive session on Sept. 23, when spot $XRP ETFs attracted approximately $18.04 million. Bitwise again accounted for the largest share, receiving about $11.54 million during the session. That brought its cumulative inflows to approximately $649 million at the time. Franklin’s $XRP ETF recorded another $6.50 million in inflows, taking its cumulative…

According to the post below, the Cardano network has officially integrated the x402 codebase via a working implementation. This implies that x402 payments are now supported on Cardano’s mainnet, preprod and preview testnet, putting the network at a key position as blockchain-based payments continue to evolve. Source: X Naturally, the question is asked: Why does this matter? A recent report from AMBCrypto showed that Solana leads the field in terms of x402 payments by volume. Notably, almost 80% of x402 payments occurred on the network. Solana had recently overtaken Base as the largest blockchain for x402 Transactions. Cardano’s implementation gives…

How Orbit works Orbit operates across three phases. During the participation phase, users interact with selected dApp contracts on Neo N3 MainNet as they normally would. All activity is monitored on-chain, and no registration is needed. Once the participation phase ends, the claiming phase begins. Users visit nDapp.org, connect their wallet, and navigate to either the “Orbit” page or the “My Orbit Overview” on the “My Wallet” page to claim rewards. Each user’s share is proportional to their transactions on participating contracts. A user responsible for 10% of a round’s transactions receives 10% of that round’s reward allocation. In the…

Monday accounted for nearly $1 billion of the Bitcoin funds’ $2.39 billion weekly total. IBIT received $381.4 million that day, while ARKB took in $289.1 million and FBTC added $238.8 million. Tuesday brought another $350.3 million to IBIT and $257.4 million to FBTC. The pace slowed later in the week, but the combined funds remained positive through Friday. IBIT posted an inflow on every trading day. The weekly total also exceeded the prior week’s roughly $6.1 million net inflow, which included sharp withdrawals on Sep. 15 and 16 before flows recovered. Bitcoin’s price moved above $87,000 earlier in the week…

A list of ETF options registered for US sale, explicitly highlighting $XRP Evolve ETF and $XRP Purpose ETF, Source: CDCC via SEC Form 8-K filing The legal groundwork was laid by notices published in the U.S. Federal Register: the SEC and CFTC classified $XRP as a qualifying digital commodity. This gave U.S. institutions direct access to trading the asset’s volatility through familiar and protected Canadian exchange-traded contracts. Canadian banks do not like crypto. But they adopted $XRP anyway The regulatory shift coincided with the first public filings from Canada’s largest banks, which have begun cautiously adding $XRP exposure to their…
