AMBCrypto reported that long-term holders have been taking profits. Selling pressure from this cohort could have contributed to the short-term correction. The good news for the bulls was that the $76k demand zone held, keeping hopes of a recovery alive. In the long-term, the $76k-$82k is a key battleground for both bears and bulls. 35% of the Bitcoin supply has been accumulated at this level or higher. Most importantly, the price correction was part of a broader market retreat. Higher oil prices spurred fears of inflation acceleration, and the U.S. Federal Reserve rate hike probability has reached 60.2%. The Bitcoin…

Anthropic Pre-Stock Open Interest (Source: CoinGlass) The contract does not represent Anthropic stock. CoinGlass shows no circulating supply or spot trading for the instrument, while Anthropic remains privately held. The price instead reflects derivatives markets attempting to value exposure to a company whose actual shares are not yet publicly available. That distinction has become increasingly important as crypto exchanges create markets around some of Silicon Valley’s most valuable private companies, effectively opening price discovery before traditional equity investors can buy the underlying shares. Anthropic confidentially filed a draft registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in June.…

He pointed to existing Cardano projects, including SNEK, DexHunter, and SundaeSwap, as examples of applications the community has generally embraced. However, he questioned why some community members appear resistant to Midnight despite its scale and growing prominence within the ecosystem. Moreover, Hoskinson warned that pushing back against successful projects could discourage other developers from building on Cardano. “If Cardano is going to succeed, Cardano needs to embrace the projects that make it succeed,” Hoskinson remarked. Hoskinson Calls for a More Welcoming Ecosystem Against this backdrop, Hoskinson argued that the Cardano community must foster an environment that encourages projects to grow…

What Stand With Crypto’s four million figure measures Armstrong’s statement marked the completion of an explicit Coinbase objective. In October 2024, the exchange committed to helping Stand With Crypto reach four million advocates before the 2026 midterm elections. Coinbase had already said it helped create the organization in 2023, making membership growth part of its policy strategy. Armstrong used “members,” while Stand With Crypto has also used “advocates.” After the Senate vote, the group described its US network as three million advocates. In May, it reported over 3.7 million members worldwide across six markets. The figures cover different dates and…

The Coinbase CEO explained why he believes the bottom might be in for Bitcoin, citing the Bitcoin price cycle: “If you follow crypto, it typically will go through these 4-year-ish cycles. There’ll be a run-up, some euphoria, there’ll be a down period. Most of the down periods last about a year. We’ve actually just come across the 1-year mark for this down period. I personally believe that the bottom is in on Bitcoin in this most recent cycle.” Armstrong added further basis for why he thinks Bitcoin might have hit a bottom in this current cycle, citing its sustained rise…

Hyperliquid [HYPE] and Chainlink [LINK] recorded smaller inflows of $1.03 million and $2.19 million, respectively. On the contrary, $XRP was the only asset with outflows of around $43.70K, hinting at relatively weaker flows for $XRP during the period. Source: SoSo Value Balchunas applauds ETFs’ success rate This surge in inflows also got Bloomberg’s Senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas saying, ETFs have now surpassed last year’s record flows of $1.5T with 3.5mo to spare. Source: Eric Balchunas/X To put that growth into perspective, Balchunas claimed that around 20 years ago, when he started covering ETFs, $100 billion in annual flows was…

The math behind the CLARITY Act 11-vote gap The Sept. 15 cloture vote needed 60 votes to succeed and got 49, with one senator not voting, leaving supporters 11 short. Losing any of the four senators identified in the amendment would raise that number. If all four switched to “No” on a future vote, the “Yes” total would fall to 45, and the gap would grow to 15. That scenario is a hypothetical built purely from the arithmetic, since signing an amendment records a policy position on paper. Moran and Susan Collins also appear on the amendment, and both already…

Shortly after the spin-off, Robinhood took an equity stake in OG.com as part of a multi-year deal to use its CFTC-regulated derivatives exchange and clearinghouse for prediction markets. Unlike traditional futures contracts, perpetual futures, or “perps,” have no expiration date, allowing traders to maintain exposure without periodically rolling into new contracts. The product was pioneered in crypto by BitMEX in 2016. Related: President Trump’s media company to terminate Crypto.com deal Perpetual futures push expands into US stocks Crypto trading platforms and prediction markets are increasingly looking to bring one of the digital asset market’s most popular derivatives products to US…

He Introduced a 256-Qubit Quantum Computer! At this point, IonQ, a US-based quantum computing company, introduced its “Superion 256” quantum computer with a 256-qubit processor in its latest report. However, it was clarified that Superion 256 is not at a level that could instantly compromise Bitcoin’s security. According to the company’s research, breaking the secp256k1 elliptic curve used by Bitcoin requires 19,397 physical qubits. In this case, a fault-tolerant quantum computer with approximately 19,397 physical qubits could break the secp256k1 elliptic curve used by Bitcoin in about 25.7 days. According to the study, for a quantum attack to practically translate…
