  Did you know that even if a perp DEX checks almost every red flag, it doesn't necessarily mean you're going to get a bad airdrop? Meet Avantis. Before TGE, its average daily trading volume was below $100M. With those metrics today, it would be outside the top 15 perp DEXs by daily volume. Average OI before TGE was below $10M, which would put it outside the top 30 perp DEXs by OI today. They postponed the originally planned TGE and launched another season that lasted almost a year, significantly diluting the points supply among users. They also had some of the highest fees among perp DEXs, which made trading there much less attractive because farming points was simply too expensive. And only 12.5% of the token supply was allocated to the airdrop at TGE, while perp DEXs typically allocate around 20-30%. So with all these red flags, I think most of you would have written this project off long before TGE, with basically zero expectations of a generous airdrop. And yet, the Avantis team took advantage of the local crypto market euphoria when Bitcoin was trading above $120K in September 2025 and went into TGE with an ATH FDV of $2.3B. Because when the market enters a euphoric phase, projects can get massively re-rated. As a result, the airdrop was worth around $300M at the peak. I was one of the users farming points there back in 2024, and I was pleasantly surprised. I had spent $4.3K on fees and received tokens that were worth $166K at the $2.3B FDV. That's basically a 38x return on the money spent farming a perp DEX that I had already written off - yet it managed to surprise me at TGE. Of course, I sold the tokens much earlier, so my actual return was nowhere near 38x. But I was still very happy with the result. If I had held the airdrop until today, my final ROI would only be around +67%, since the token is currently trading at roughly a $100M FDV. That means my $4.3K in fees would have resulted in an airdrop worth around $7.2K today. So what's the point? Sometimes, you shouldn't focus solely on the metrics. You also need to look at who is behind the perp DEX, who is backing it, and whether the team has enough funding and support to keep the project alive for another year or two while waiting for better market conditions. Especially if they can survive long enough to catch another wave of market euphoria like we saw in September 2025. Avantis had all of that. The perp DEX had backing from Coinbase and Base, which gave it the ability to keep operating despite relatively weak metrics. And that's exactly why, despite all the red flags, they were still able to deliver a surprisingly generous airdrop. So don't write off a perp DEX just because its current metrics look weak. Of course, metrics play an important role, but sometimes it's worth digging a little deeper. You might find that glimmer of hopium for a perp DEX where you've already farmed a lot of points but have long since given up hope of a decent airdrop - just like I once did with Avantis. So, which tokenless perp DEXs come to mind that could surprise everyone at TGE the way Avantis did?

  Here is what actually bothers me about leaving $ETH on Coinbase. You cannot prove what happens to it. You hold a database entry in an app, they hold the keys, and their own SEC filings say that in a bankruptcy your coins can become property of the estate while you become an unsecured creditor. Every exchange that ever gambled with customer funds swore it never touched customer funds, right up until the withdrawal button grayed out. Maybe Coinbase is the honest one. But not your keys means you are trusting, not verifying, and this entire industry exists because trusting failed.

  jprince.sol (@redacted_j) reported 17 minutes ago

  @gizmothegizzer I think your product is especially interesting from a pmf perspective. You've got two groups - crypto people and normal people. It's like that classic question of what did it take to get a chain that could beat ETH? Something 10x better. Well, to get someone to stop using trad bonds and go to the trouble of: 1. Opening a Coinbase 2. KYCing 3. Figuring out what a hot wallet is and setting it up 4. Storing the hot wallet key on a post it in their vault in their house 5. Connecting to your website with the hot wallet and not some scam site by accident 6. Moving money from Coinbase to the Hot wallet and finally to USD* 7. Not thinking about the Ledger version of this: 7a. Ledger decides the version of ledger you bought is out of date, declares it null and void, and you need to buy another and re-set it up. You may have a superior yield to a bond, but only by 2x. Convincing my Dad to go to crypto took promises of 10x back in 2021 on BTC and SOL and on at least one of those I was right. That's why your marketing doesn't work for normies. For crypto OGs, it's the inverse problem. They are already here and have access to higher yield, higher risk options that sometimes have high dopamine events associated with them (like pack rips) and are not naturally interested in at-rest, low risk investing strategies. They aren't REALLY your demographic, you are quite literally selling lipstick to men. So how do you market something only 2x better to normal people when getting their money to you is like 5x harder than opening a Roth IRA? Focus on the pipeline - build that product instead. Maybe you already have, I haven't visited the USD* site in awhile, I'm just thinking out of my *** here. Moonpay kind of does this well, but getting approved by them is tough and you are doing stablecoin stuff but if you can get that working you'll have lowered friction significantly. It isn't really about the rate of return, I think it's about the friction. If you can't be 10x better, then make the friction go from 5x to 1.5x.

  Case stems from Fed's 2023 rejection of Wyoming crypto bank's 2020 application for direct payment system access. Industry group claims Fed has excessive discretion that enables "crypto debanking" under alleged "Operation Choke Point 2.0." Meanwhile, Kraken Financial secured limited Fed access in March, while Coinbase, Circle, and others gain federal trust company approvals - highlighting inconsistent regulatory treatment across crypto banking sector.

  Coinbase Put a Number on the Problem @quipnetwork Was Built to Solve Coinbase's Independent Advisory Board on Quantum Computing and Blockchain, researchers from Stanford, UT Austin, the Ethereum Foundation, and others, published their first position paper in April, then followed up in June with a harder number: roughly 7 million BTC currently sitting in quantum-vulnerable addresses, including 1.7 million in legacy P2PK addresses from Bitcoin's earliest days. That's not @quipnetwork's own marketing making that claim, it's the industry's own institutions confirming the exposure is real and already on-chain today, not a future hypothetical. Coinbase's board isn't calling it an emergency either, current quantum hardware can't break this cryptography yet, but they're explicit that migration planning needs to start well before that changes. That's the exact gap Quip's actual product sits in. While Bitcoin's own base-layer fixes (BIP-360, BIP-361) work through years of consensus and activation, Quip's cosigner wraps existing wallets, MetaMask, Ledger, Safe, in a second WOTS+ signature today, live on Ethereum, Solana, and Bitcoin through Arch Network. No migration, no waiting on a fork to land. Coinbase's board confirmed the scale of the exposure. Whether a wrapper like Quip's is the right stopgap while the protocol-level fix catches up is still the open question, but at least now there's an independent number attached to why that question matters.

  $SPCX Bulls seem to be taking a victory lap tonight, which I guess is understandable, it sure looks like X is amplifying this message, Given we have only begun this unlock journey and are seeing allot of vol and allot polarization, there still may be good entry points on either side coming soon The typical tech IPO path has structure, not drift: 1) First-day pop (that's the underwriter discount, ~10–20% on average, more in hot windows). 2) Then a fade or chop into the 180-day lockup expiration — this is the single most reliable mechanical event in year one. Supply from insiders and early VCs hits, and the stock frequently makes its year-one low in the weeks around it (Facebook, Snowflake, Rivian, Coinbase all bottomed or broke down near lockup windows). 3) After that, it trades on fundamentals — quarterly prints start mattering more than flow mechanics, and analyst coverage (post quiet period) and eventual index inclusion add demand. Could this take longer for SPCX given the unlock schedule runs until December? What are option markets telling us? the dominance flips as you go out in time: August (front) — calls dominate. Aug 14 has 424k calls vs 284k puts (P/C = 0.67); Aug 21 has 508k vs 396k (0.78). The tallest usable wall anywhere near the money is the Aug 21 $160 call wall (43k), backed by $150 (36k) and $200 (31k). The put side in August is big in raw numbers but sits at $90–$125 — below the market, stale from pre-rally positioning, and not really "defending" anything at current prices. Technically the single biggest wall in the whole chain is the Aug 14 $320 call block (132k), but at 2 days out and 2x spot it's dead weight, not a wall. September and beyond — puts take over. Sep 18 flips to put-dominant (390k puts vs 330k calls, P/C = 1.18), anchored by the $150 put wall (44k) — the largest at-the-money position in the entire chain. The put dominance strengthens further out: Nov P/C = 1.53, Dec = 1.41, Jan '27 = 1.40. Whole chain: a near-perfect draw — roughly 2.16M calls vs 2.16M puts across all 19 expirations. So the structure reads: short-dated speculation is all on the call side (the $150→$160 zone is the fight), while the standing, longer-dated money is net protective, with $150 as the insured floor from September on. Call walls dominate the trade; put walls dominate the investment. So, is $150 going to be the battleground price? disclosure- no positions or derivatives in SPCX, no correlation to Bitcoin

  📊【XWIN CAPITAL INDEX｜August 14, 2026】 Overall Score: 41 / 100 ・80–100 = Strong Bullish Environment ・60–79 = Bullish Bias ・40–59 = Neutral / No Clear Direction ・20–39 = Bearish Bias ・0–19 = Strong Bearish Environment 7-Day Moving Average: 48.86 → 14-Day Moving Average: 36.57 ↓ Market Direction: “Neutral, but weakening again in the short term.” The overall score is below the 7-day average but remains above the 14-day average. The sharp recovery seen in early August has temporarily stalled, and the market is now testing whether the broader recovery structure can be sustained. ――――――――――――――――――― Market Summary ・BTC has fallen back toward the $63,000 area and has been unable to decisively reclaim the Trader’s On-chain Realized Price near $65,600. Selling pressure remains strong around this key level. ・The most notable feature is that BTC has failed to rally despite an improving macro environment. Even as CPI and PPI data eased monetary-tightening concerns, spot capital inflows into crypto have remained insufficient. ・The S&P 500 remains near record highs while BTC continues to underperform. This suggests that the issue is not broad risk-off sentiment, but rather capital being allocated toward equities, AI, and semiconductors instead of crypto. ・BTC futures demand has improved, but spot demand remains weak. The market has yet to reach a structure in which both spot and derivatives demand are simultaneously supporting BTC. ・Total BTC trading volume has fallen to roughly $54.4 billion, one of the lowest levels since late 2023. This indicates not only weak price action but also declining market participation. ・Bitcoin’s 30-day price range has narrowed to just 5.6%, while 7-day BVOL has fallen to 2.86. Extreme volatility compression increases the probability of a larger move ahead. ・Publicly listed Bitcoin miners have sold approximately 28,000 BTC in 2026. Capital allocation toward AI and data-center investment is creating an additional source of BTC supply. ・The current structure is not outright bearish. Buyers remain present, but spot demand is still insufficient to absorb selling pressure and establish a sustainable upward trend. ――――――――――――――――――― On-Chain & Technical Trends ・The 7-day average net inflow into BTC ETFs has increased to approximately 1,895 BTC, while total ETF holdings have risen to around 1.1925 million BTC. Institutional ETF demand is showing signs of recovery. ・The Coinbase Premium Gap has improved from around -$133 in May to -$68.27 as of August 12. It remains negative, but U.S. spot demand is gradually recovering. ・Data also indicate increased BTC buying activity on Coinbase, potentially signaling improving U.S. investor demand. However, a move in the Coinbase Premium into positive territory would provide stronger confirmation. ・Binance BTC reserves have increased to approximately 667,500 BTC. More BTC available on exchanges means greater potential sell-side liquidity, creating a short-term supply headwind. ・The Binance Whale Ratio has risen from 0.44 to 0.50. Increased whale deposits during BTC’s rebound toward $65,000 suggest that large holders may be contributing to resistance. ・Supply in Profit has declined to 51.4%, meaning approximately 48.6% of BTC supply is currently held at an unrealized loss. This reflects weakness but is also consistent with conditions often seen near market-bottom formation phases. ・Open Interest has declined alongside price, indicating long-position liquidation and broader leverage reduction. While negative in the short term, this deleveraging can improve market structure over the medium term. ・Stablecoin signals remain mixed. Market capitalization on Tron increased by roughly $1 billion over seven days, while broader market data indicate renewed net outflows. A decisive recovery in deployable liquidity has yet to emerge. ――――――――――――――――――― Sentiment ・BTC’s failure to hold $65,000 and subsequent decline toward $63,000 have pushed short-term market psychology back toward caution. ・The decline in Supply in Profit, shrinking STH supply, and rising LTH share are increasingly resembling conditions often observed during the later stages of bearish phases or market-bottom formation. ・“Conviction Buyers,” representing stronger long-term holders, reportedly control around 4 million BTC and continue accumulating despite price weakness. ・Bitcoin active addresses have reportedly fallen to a seven-year low, highlighting weak network activity and limited retail participation. ・Web traffic to major crypto exchanges declined approximately 2.35% month over month in July, suggesting that retail participation has not yet meaningfully recovered. ・Bollinger Bands and realized volatility remain extremely compressed. Current sentiment is better characterized by low participation and hesitation than by outright panic. ・The divergence between record-high U.S. equities and weak BTC performance is weighing on crypto sentiment. Investors increasingly view the weakness as crypto-specific rather than a broader risk-asset problem. ・At the same time, regulatory progress involving the SEC, CFTC, and OCC, alongside increasing TradFi ETF exposure, continues to provide structural support for longer-term sentiment. ――――――――――――――――――― U.S. Traditional Markets ・July PPI rose 4.7% year over year and was flat month over month, coming in below market expectations. Core PPI increased only 0.2% month over month, indicating easing inflationary pressure. ・CPI came in at 3.4% year over year, in line with expectations. Taken together, CPI and PPI have reduced concerns over renewed inflation acceleration. ・Based on the provided market data, the probability of a September rate hike fell from roughly 55% to 32.1%. From a monetary-policy perspective, this is supportive for BTC and other risk assets. ・The S&P 500 remains near record highs, indicating that the broader U.S. market continues to operate in a risk-on environment. ・Approximately 75% of S&P 500 technology stocks are trading above their 200-day moving averages, suggesting that equity strength is becoming broader rather than remaining concentrated in only a handful of mega-cap stocks. ・Capital continues to flow toward AI and semiconductor stocks. Memory-related equities reportedly added approximately $115 billion in market capitalization, showing that AI-related assets currently have stronger capital momentum than crypto. ・The U.S. 30-year Treasury auction yield reached 5.216%, its highest level since 2001. Even with improving short-term inflation data, elevated long-term yields remain a significant constraint for risk assets. ・The U.S. July fiscal deficit reached approximately $432 billion, a record for the month. High interest costs are a near-term macro burden, but persistent fiscal expansion may reinforce Bitcoin’s longer-term scarcity and monetary-debasement narrative. ――――――――――――――――――― Overall Assessment The XWIN CAPITAL INDEX stands at 41 / 100. The broader recovery from 18 on August 1 remains intact, but momentum has weakened again after reaching 58 on August 10, with subsequent readings of 54 → 42 → 45 → 41. The score has fallen below the 7-day moving average of 48.86, signaling deteriorating short-term momentum. However, it remains above the 14-day average of 36.57, meaning the broader structural improvement from the extreme weakness of early August has not yet been fully reversed. Macro conditions, ETF flows, and Coinbase demand show signs of improvement, but weak spot demand, low trading volume, rising Binance reserves, and an elevated Whale Ratio continue to prevent a sustained bullish structure. The next meaningful improvement would require a shift from a futures-driven market toward one where spot, ETF, and derivatives demand are all aligned. Key Crypto Market Factors to Watch Today ・Whether BTC spot demand turns sustainably positive ・Whether U.S. spot BTC ETF net inflows continue ・Whether the Coinbase Premium Gap recovers toward zero or positive territory ・Whether the rise in Binance reserves and the Whale Ratio begins to reverse ・Whether BTC can reclaim the $65,600 area with stronger spot trading volume

  HyperAICharts daily newsletter – August 13, 2026 #Bitcoin remains near $63,800 as softer U.S. inflation data reduce pressure on the Federal Reserve—but still fail to produce a decisive crypto breakout. bitcoin:native is holding its range, $ETH remains below $1,900, institutional ETF demand has weakened, corporate Bitcoin treasuries are becoming more active, and leverage is expanding just as security and regulatory risks remain elevated. Market snapshot • BTC: approximately $63,800 • ETH: approximately $1,880–$1,900 • XRP: approximately $1.02 • Sentiment: Fear • BTC support: $62,000–$63,000 • BTC resistance: $65,000–$65,500 • ETH support: $1,850 • ETH resistance: $1,950–$2,000 Bitcoin traded around $63,833 on August 13 after July CPI showed annual inflation easing to 3.4% from 3.5%, while core inflation slowed to 2.5%. The follow-up inflation signal was also relatively benign: July producer prices were unchanged month over month versus expectations for an increase, while annual PPI slowed to 4.7%. Markets reduced expectations of a September Fed rate increase to roughly 35%. Ten developments that matter 1. Inflation is cooling—but Bitcoin still cannot break resistance July CPI came in at: • +0.1% month over month • +3.4% year over year • Core CPI: +0.2% MoM • Core CPI: +2.5% YoY Then July PPI came in flat month over month, below the expected increase. The combination of softer consumer inflation, weak July employment and benign producer-price data reduces the immediate pressure on the Fed to tighten policy again. That should normally be supportive for liquidity-sensitive assets. But BTC remains below $65,000–$65,500. That muted reaction matters: macro conditions have improved, but crypto-specific demand is not yet strong enough to convert favorable data into a confirmed breakout. A sustained move above $65,500–$66,000 would improve the structure. A loss of $62,000–$63,000 would shift attention back toward the lower end of Bitcoin’s recent range. 2. ETF flows are no longer providing consistent support U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded approximately $61.2M in net outflows on August 12. Fidelity’s FBTC accounted for roughly $46.8M of the outflow, while BlackRock’s IBIT lost approximately $14.3M. Ethereum ETFs moved in the opposite direction, recording approximately $7.4M of net inflows on August 12. The sequence matters. Bitcoin ETF demand surged during August 3–7, but subsequent sessions have been inconsistent. That means institutional demand has not disappeared—but it is no longer providing the same persistent marginal bid. For BTC, the stronger signal would be several consecutive positive ETF sessions combined with spot-market strength above resistance. 3. Strategy is actively managing its Bitcoin treasury—not simply accumulating Strategy sold 1,690 BTC for $108.6M between August 3 and August 9 at an average net sale price of $64,262. Its Bitcoin holdings fell to 840,447 BTC. The company’s aggregate Bitcoin purchase cost is approximately $63.36B, equivalent to an average acquisition price of $75,385 per BTC. The Bitcoin-sale proceeds funded the repurchase of approximately 1.15M STRC preferred shares. Strategy simultaneously sold approximately $653.1M of MSTR common stock, directing $650M of the proceeds into its U.S. dollar reserve. That reserve reached approximately $4.65B as of August 9 and is intended to support preferred-stock dividends and interest obligations. This is an important evolution in the corporate-Bitcoin thesis. Strategy now demonstrates that BTC can serve as: • A long-term treasury reserve • A source of corporate liquidity • A funding mechanism for security repurchases • Part of a broader capital-structure strategy Corporate Bitcoin holdings therefore should not automatically be treated as permanently illiquid supply. 4. Kraken has raised BTC/USD spot-margin leverage to 20x Kraken Pro now allows eligible traders in selected jurisdictions to use up to 20x leverage on BTC/USD spot-margin positions. The change applies specifically to BTC/USD margin—not every pair and not futures. Higher leverage improves capital efficiency. It also reduces the amount of adverse price movement required to create large percentage losses relative to posted collateral when traders use that leverage to increase position size. This matters because Bitcoin is currently trading inside a relatively narrow technical range. More leverage inside a compressed market can amplify: • Stop-loss cascades • Liquidations • Intraday volatility • Short squeezes • Long squeezes Leverage itself does not determine market direction. It increases the sensitivity of positioning to price movement. 5. Ethereum staking is reaching a structural inflection point Reported staking data indicate approximately 41.9M ETH is now locked—roughly one-third of circulating supply. That reduces immediately liquid ETH supply but has also reopened the debate around how much Ethereum should issue to validators. A new draft, EIP-8363 — Tapered Issuance Burn, proposes modifying Ethereum’s issuance curve by burning a portion of validator rewards as the staking ratio rises. The objective is to prevent an ever-growing percentage of ETH from becoming staked simply because staking continues to offer a persistent yield floor. The proposal is early-stage and has not been adopted. Potential benefits: • Lower future ETH issuance • Less dilution for unstaked holders • Reduced incentive for excessive staking concentration • Potentially stronger monetary scarcity Potential costs: • Lower validator yields • Reduced attractiveness for institutional staking strategies • Pressure on liquid-staking economics • Possible effects on validator decentralization For ETH investors, this is a monetary-policy debate—not an immediate network upgrade. 6. Coinbase is building a regulated tokenized-securities hub in Abu Dhabi Coinbase received Financial Services Permission from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Abu Dhabi Global Market. The authorization allows Coinbase to arrange investment transactions and provide custody in connection with tokenized securities. This extends a broader institutional trend: Traditional securities are increasingly being represented through blockchain infrastructure while retaining regulated ownership, custody and compliance systems. Potential advantages include: • Programmable ownership • Blockchain-based settlement • Extended operating hours • Integrated compliance • Faster collateral movement • Onchain servicing of traditional assets This is significant for blockchain adoption, but it should not automatically be interpreted as demand for BTC or ETH. The more important signal is that regulated capital markets are increasingly adopting blockchain infrastructure independently of cryptocurrency speculation. 7. ENS is formalizing its governance structure ENS tokenholders approved a governance restructuring that gives the ENS Foundation administrative control over an endowment worth approximately $65M in ETH and stablecoins. Protocol control remains with ENS tokenholders. The Foundation structure is intended to professionalize: • Staffing • Grants • Intellectual-property management • External relationships • Endowment administration The endowment also includes safeguards such as timelocks and Security Council intervention rights. This illustrates a broader DAO governance trend: As decentralized protocols grow, many are separating tokenholder governance from day-to-day legal and operational management. That can improve execution—but also creates legitimate questions about centralization, accountability and the practical meaning of decentralization. 8. FlightAware’s dispute with Kalshi ended almost as quickly as it began FlightAware sued prediction-market operator Kalshi over alleged unauthorized use of its flight-cancellation data and trademark. One day later, FlightAware voluntarily withdrew the lawsuit without publicly explaining the decision. The underlying issue remains important. Prediction markets increasingly depend on external data to settle contracts. That creates unresolved questions around: • Data licensing • Trademark use • Oracle integrity • Manipulation incentives • Who legally owns settlement data • Liability when market outcomes depend on third-party information The dispute may have been withdrawn, but the structural problem is likely to reappear as prediction markets expand into more real-world events. 9. Ravencoin demonstrates how dangerous a consensus-layer vulnerability can become Ravencoin disclosed a critical consensus vulnerability that caused vulnerable nodes to accept invalid blocks. The first known invalid block appeared at height 4,487,776 on August 7. Mining pools including 2Miners and RavenMiner began building a competing chain that excludes the affected branch, while exchanges suspended RVN deposits and withdrawals. This is more serious than a normal application exploit. A consensus-layer failure can affect: • Transaction finality • Chain history • Exchange deposits • Double-spend assumptions • Merchant settlement • Bridge accounting Recent transactions can become vulnerable to reorganization while network participants converge on a valid chain. The lesson is straightforward: Not all blockchain risk is smart-contract risk. Consensus implementation, node software and miner coordination remain fundamental security dependencies. 10. The Goliath case reinforces the oldest crypto warning: guaranteed returns are a red flag The CFTC charged Goliath Ventures and CEO Christopher Delgado in connection with an alleged crypto Ponzi scheme involving at least $397M from approximately 1,600 customers. Regulators allege that the company misappropriated customer funds, paid fictional profits to existing investors and issued statements showing returns that did not exist. Delgado had already pleaded guilty to federal criminal charges in June, and the SEC filed a parallel civil case on August 11. The core warning signs remain remarkably consistent: • Guaranteed principal • Guaranteed profits • Returns materially above market rates • Opaque investment strategies • Withdrawal delays • Additional payments demanded before withdrawals • Account balances that cannot be independently verified Blockchain technology does not eliminate Ponzi economics. Regulatory update: the SEC meeting was cancelled The SEC had scheduled an August 14 open meeting to consider whether to propose a tailored offering regime for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets. The SEC updated the meeting page on August 13 to mark the meeting Cancelled. Therefore, August 14 should no longer be treated as a confirmed regulatory catalyst. The proposed framework remains important, but the timetable is now uncertain. The same caution applies to claims of a fixed September 15 Senate vote on the CLARITY Act: absent a confirmed Senate schedule, regulatory progress should be treated as pending rather than as a binary event on a predetermined date. Market structure Bitcoin • Support: $62,000–$63,000 • Intermediate level: $63,500–$64,000 • Resistance: $65,000–$65,500 • Breakout confirmation: approximately $66,000 The constructive case requires BTC to convert favorable macro data into actual spot demand. Until that happens, the market remains range-bound. Ethereum • Support: approximately $1,850 • Resistance: approximately $1,950 • Major psychological resistance: $2,000 ETH is caught between: Constructive • Record staking participation • Reduced liquid supply • Expanding institutional blockchain adoption • Tokenization activity • Strong Layer 2 usage Risks • Weak price momentum • Inconsistent ETF flows • Debate over validator economics • Corporate treasury volatility • Layer 2 value-capture questions A sustained recovery above $2,000 would materially improve the technical structure. XRP The $1.00 area remains the critical psychological level. XRP continues to benefit from Ripple’s institutional expansion and growing tokenization infrastructure, but regulatory uncertainty and weak broader altcoin liquidity remain headwinds. Security radar Several events this week point to different layers of crypto risk: • Coldcard — key-generation and operational-security risk • Coreum — bridge-verification risk • Ravencoin — consensus-layer risk • Goliath — counterparty and fraud risk • Prediction markets — oracle and external-data risk • High-leverage trading — liquidation risk These risks are fundamentally different and should not be grouped under a generic label of “crypto security.” What to watch next • Whether BTC can reclaim $65,000–$65,500 • Whether ETF flows return to sustained positive territory • ETH’s response around $1,850–$2,000 • Strategy’s future BTC sales and capital-allocation decisions • Growth in leveraged BTC/USD positioning after Kraken’s 20x increase • Ethereum’s EIP-8363 issuance debate • Coinbase’s Abu Dhabi tokenization rollout • Ravencoin’s chain recovery and exchange reopening • ENS Foundation governance execution • The SEC’s rescheduling or next step on crypto investment-contract rules • Upcoming U.S. retail-sales and PCE inflation data The larger signal is increasingly clear: Crypto’s next phase is being driven by the interaction of macro liquidity, institutional infrastructure, leverage, governance and operational security—not by price alone. Bitcoin has received more favorable inflation data but has not broken out. Ethereum has record staking participation but remains below $2,000. Traditional financial firms are moving securities onchain while crypto-native protocols are redesigning their governance and monetary economics. At the same time, leverage is expanding and failures are occurring at every layer—from private-key generation to bridges and consensus software. The market is becoming more institutional. It is also becoming more complex. What matters most for the next move: BTC technicals, ETF demand, Fed policy, leverage, institutional tokenization or security risk? Informational only. Not financial advice.

  @rfaelcsarez @ItsAngelCirce It’s a numbers game. It’s usually the emails. You can buy database dumps on forums. They send out phishing emails and old people are like “Hmm it looks like Coinbase, must be Coinbase” and they willfully just enter **** in. When u send out 100k emails ur gonna get a few bites.

  three regulatory threads converging in 24 hours. Hawaii: full ban on crypto ATMs. October 1st. New York City: reviewing Kalshi, Polymarket, Coinbase for marketing practices. SEC: Regulation Crypto meeting. tomorrow. three different jurisdictions. three different mechanisms. one week. I want to point out the pattern. Hawaii’s approach: prohibition. the same approach that pushed activity into unregulated channels everywhere it’s been tried before. New York City’s approach: marketing scrutiny, not product bans. a narrower, more targeted concern. SEC’s approach: framework building. the same body that just confirmed most crypto isn’t securities. three regulators. three completely different philosophies. running simultaneously. this is what “unclear regulatory environment” actually looks like in practice. not one villain. a patchwork of jurisdictions each solving their own version of the problem. tomorrow’s SEC meeting matters more than the other two combined. because it’s federal. and federal frameworks eventually override the patchwork. that’s the whole point of the Clarity Act fight happening in parallel.

  @theblej @Vikingobitcoin9 @scottjduffy Bitcoin's original code excludes the genesis block's coinbase transaction from the UTXO set during initialisation, so nodes do not recognise the output as spendable despite the address holding it
