Bitcoin (BTC) hit a record high against the Japanese yen (JPY) on Monday, leaving behind the bitcoin-dollar pair as Japan's newly elected Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae voiced support for a return to the pro-stimulus "Abenomics" strategy Abenomics was an economic strategy introduced by former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in late 2012 and early 2013 to revive the country's economy by ending decades of deflation-led stagnation. It involved the use of three arrows: aggressive monetary easing, high public spending and cheap borrowing and structural reforms to boost investment and growth potential. Speaking at a press conference Saturday, Sanae made it clear that the government would lead fiscal and monetary policy setting, echoing the growing fiscal dominance worldwide aimed at prioritizing demand reflation. She said that the government and the central bank must work closely to achieve "demand-driven inflation backed by rising wages and corporate profits." The ...

Dogecoin bounced sharply in early Sunday trade, recovering from Saturday’s slide to reclaim the $0.26 handle. The move higher came after a mid-session flushout drove price to $0.248 on heavy volume, clearing weak longs before buyers stepped in.

Bitcoin (BTC) surged during the Asian session on Sunday, rallying from $122,000 to $124,289 within minutes, pausing short of the record high of $124,429 reached in August. The break above $124,000 followed a massive demand for U.S.-listed spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs). which collectively registering a net inflow of $3.24 billion last week.

Haven demand BTC's rally arrives against the backdrop of a continued U.S. government shutdown, which analysts say has heightened safe-haven demand for the top cryptocurrency. Jeff Dorman, Chief Investment Officer of Arca, noted just before the shutdown began, "The only time I buy BTC is when society loses faith in governments and local banks. $BTC likely a good buy here ahead of yet another U.S. government shutdown." Beyond polit...

Floki (FLOKI), a cryptocurrency project that started as a memecoin and has since evolved with its own ecosystem, has seen its price jump nearly 23% in the last 24 hours after the launch of its first exchnage-traded product (ETP) in Europe. The new offering, called Valour Floki SEK ETP, launched on Oct. 3 on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market, making Floki the first BNB Chain ecosystem token to secure an ETP besides BNB itself. Developed by Valour, a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies, the product is designed for both retail and institutional investors who want exposure to the FLOKI token without holding crypto directly. Floki, which exists on both the Ethereum and BNB chains, has an ecosystem that includes a play-to-earn non-fungible token (NFT) game, a DeFi asset locker, an NFT marketplace, and a crypto education platform. The launch coincides with renewed momentum in BNB Chain projects. BNB itself surged past $1,150 this week to a new all-time high, before seeing a correction to just ...

Traditional investment firms all have the same mantras: “time in the market beats timing,” “move slowly,” and “big money is in the waiting.” It’s an action plan that made sense 20 years ago, but today, it’s a sure strategy for getting steamrolled by forces most of these firms refuse to acknowledge. The uncomfortable truth is that markets no longer run on just earnings reports and balance sheets; they run on stories, memes, and cultural ideas that gain momentum through social communities like X and Reddit and move faster than analysts can reliably keep track of. As much as we want to call GameStop a glitch, it’s only a preview of how markets now work. Crypto investors had an outsized role in driving this shift that spilled over into traditional markets. And now, retail investors have evolved from spectators to active market movers and makers, armed with platforms that let them coordinate, analyze, and act upon market intelligence at scale and unprecedented speed. While not every retai...

Bitcoin (BTC) has ripped about 13% this week, surging Friday to just shy of a new record of $124,500. With that ceiling nearly cleared, a quick move to $135,000 could be in the cards, according to Standard Chartered head of digital asset research Geoffrey Kendrick. In a note published on Friday, Kendrick argued that the U.S. government shutdown is playing a bigger role in markets than in past episodes supporting bitcoin's rally. During the 2018-2019 shutdown, BTC traded in a different context. Now, the largest crypto has been closely correlated with U.S. government risk, measured by the U.S. Treasury term premiums, a relationship that suggests the uncertainty around the shutdown acts as a bullish driver this time. Traders on prediction marketplace Polymarket currently give more than a 60% chance that the shutdown lasts 10–29 days. Kendrick forecasted BTC will continue to rise throughout that period. Kendrick also highlighted a coming shift in ETF investor behavior. While gold...

Ethereum’s next major network upgrade, Fusaka , could reshape how users experience the blockchain by lowering costs and boosting efficiency, according to asset manager VanEck. In its September crypto market recap , VanEck’s research team said Fusaka, expected to go live in December , is designed to tackle one of Ethereum’s biggest hurdles: data availability for rollups, the scaling solutions that bundle many transactions together before settling them on Ethereum. Why Fusaka matters The centerpiece of the upgrade is a technique called Peer Data Availability Sampling (PeerDAS). Instead of requiring every Ethereum validator to download all transaction data, PeerDAS allows them to verify blocks by sampling smaller pieces. VanEck explained that this reduces bandwidth and storage demands, making it possible to safely raise Ethereum’s “blob” capacity — the data slots used by rollups — without putting strain on the network. This matters because Ethereum developers have already doubled bl...

BNB’s push above $1,100 has shifted attention to the BNB Chain’s native names, with investors rotating into protocols that capture fees and on-chain activity. Activity on the network has risen partly due to Binance founder Changpeng Zhao’s recent endorsements of BNB Chain projects, bringing newfound attention to the fifth-ranked token by market capitalization. Crypto market participants often tend to allocate to an ecosystem when the base asset climbs higher, with liquidity tending to remain inside that sector. Protocols that collect fees and route orders tend to move first, followed by memecoins and then lesser-known fundamental plays. PancakeSwap’s CAKE jumped nearly 30% over the past 24 hours, a move that usually coincides with deeper liquidity on core pools and tighter spreads across major pairs. Newer tokens are catching bids as well: ASTER rose about 18%, reflecting the search for higher beta exposure as BNB advances. By contrast, meme tokens such as FLOKI and Simon’s Cat (C...

Bitcoin demand has been quietly expanding since July, setting the stage for what could be another late-year rally to over $200,000 Apparent demand has grown at a rate of roughly 62,000 BTC per month, according to CryptoQuant, a backdrop similar to Q4 of 2020, 2021 and 2024 when prices staged sharp moves higher. Sustained growth in demand has historically served as one of the backdrops for price rallies to occur, Much of that expansion is being driven by whales and ETFs. Large-holder balances are rising at an annualized pace of 331,000 BTC, a stronger trend than the 255,000 BTC recorded in Q4 2024, the 238,000 BTC at the start of Q4 2020, and a sharp contrast to the 197,000 BTC contraction that marked the weaker market in 2021. ETFs could add another layer as the products bought 213,000 BTC in Q4 2024, a 71% jump in holdings, and may be positioned to increase allocations into year-end. For that demand to translate into another breakout, momentum on the price side is still critical....

A new thesis from DeFi analyst Patrick Scott argues that despite losing market share to rivals, Hyperliquid remains the most investable decentralized exchange for perpetual futures. Perp DEX market in flux Perpetual futures — or perps — are crypto derivatives that allow traders to speculate on prices without an expiry date. The decentralized platforms that host them, known as perp DEXes, have surged in popularity as traders move activity away from centralized exchanges (CEXes) such as Binance. Scott noted that perp DEXes have expanded from less than 2% of CEX perpetual trading volume in 2022 to more than 20% last month. Hyperliquid, which issues the HYPE token, has been a key driver of that growth. Still, recent shifts have raised questions. Hyperliquid’s share of perp DEX volume fell from 45% to just 8% in recent weeks, while Binance-affiliated rival Aster ballooned to more than $270 billion in weekly trades. Other upstarts such as Lighter and edgeX also posted triple-digit per...

XRP surged to fresh highs after Japan’s SBI unveiled an institutional lending initiative, igniting volumes above 160M and lifting price through key resistance.

The breakout accelerated at 08:00 Oct. 1, as XRP ripped from $2.86 to $2.92 on 164.5M tokens — more than double the daily average. Subsequent consolidation held $2.93 support t...

SINGAPORE — The most important story in crypto right now is tokenization and it’s coming fast to disrupt traditional finance, according to Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev. Tenev told the crowd at the Token2049 conference in Singapore that tokenization is a “freight train” barreling toward the heart of traditional finance. “Crypto and traditional finance have been living in separate worlds, but they’ll fully merge. In the future, everything will be on-chain in some form, and the distinction will disappear,” he said. With Robinhood now offering tokenized stocks in Europe as well as private shares in some of the hottest non-public startups like OpenAI , the firm is betting big on a future where assets trade 24/7, on-chain, and globally. “In the same way that stablecoins have become the default way to get digital access to dollars, tokenized stocks will become the default way for people outside the U.S. to get exposure to American equities," Tenev said on stage. "That’s why we laun...

Bitcoin (BTC) jumped to its highest in over two months as the U.S. government shut down operations, likely setting the stage for a positive fiat liquidity impulse. The leading cryptocurrency has risen nearly 4% in the past 24 hours, with prices briefly rising to $119,455 for the first time since mid-August, CoinDesk data show. Other major tokens such as ether (ETH), XRP (XRP), solana (SOL) and dogecoin (DOGE) have risen 4% to 7%. The CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) has jumped 5% to 4,217 points. The rally follows a U.S. government shutdown on Wednesday after a deeply divided Congress prevented officials from reaching a funding deal. The shutdown could delay Friday's nonfarm payrolls report, the official monthly jobs figure, which would eventually set the stage for a positive liquidity impulse or expansion of liquidity in the financial system. This often results in easier access to funding, reduces cost of borrowing and encourages economic growth and risk-taking in financial markets....

Ripple’s longtime chief technology officer David Schwartz said Tuesday he will step back from daily responsibilities after more than a decade at the company, moving into a board role as “CTO emeritus.” Schwartz, one of the original architects of the XRP Ledger, announced the transition in a X post. He said the decision will allow him to spend more time with family while staying active in the XRP community. “I’m not going away from the XRP community. You haven’t seen the last of me (now, or ever),” he posted. “The last few months I’ve been tinkering on the side – spinning up my own XRPL node and publishing its output data, researching other use cases for XRP (besides what Ripple is focused on), and more.”“I truly enjoy this part — getting my hands dirty, talking to builders, coding for the pure love of it — and I’m really excited to get back to that. More to come on this very soon, I’m sure<�” Schwartz added.Ripple confirmed that Dennis Jarosch, the firm’s senior vice president of ...

Swiss digital asset bank Sygnum has launched a new investment vehicle designed to generate yield on Bitcoin without reducing investors’ exposure to its price movements. The BTC Alpha Fund, developed in partnership with Athens-based Starboard Digital, uses arbitrage strategies to target net annual returns of 8%-10%, which are paid directly in Bitcoin. The fund is domiciled in the Cayman Islands and caters to professional and institutional investors. By converting arbitrage gains into bitcoin, participants can increase the number of coins they hold while still benefiting from bitcoin’s long-term price appreciation. Sygnum said the product has already drawn strong interest from clients looking for institutional-grade yield options in digital assets. The fund comes as institutional investors are looking to go beyond just holding bitcoin in their portfolio and use decentralized finance (DeFi) to generate more income from their BTC holdings. The bitcoin DeFi has gained popularity and has...

MEXC Ventures has doubled down on its investment in the Ethena ecosystem, bringing its total exposure to $66 million, according to a press release shared with CoinDesk. The latest move includes a $14 million investment in ENA, the governance token of the Ethena protocol, building on a $16 million ENA purchase and $20 million acquisition of USDe made earlier this year. USDe is a synthetic stablecoin designed to track the value of the dollar without holding traditional reserves. Instead, it uses a combination of collateralized stablecoins and futures contracts. The stablecoin’s market capitalization has nearly tripled since early July from around $5.3 billion to now stand at $14.65 billion. Traditional stablecoins backed by cash and cash equivalents, including U.S. Treasurys, remain dominant, with the leader USDT having a $174.7 billion market capitalization. MEXC Ventures, the press release says, has already invested over $100 million in 40 investment projects. It has provided “enh...
