Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

75% Volume Spike, Four (FORM) Dips, Bears Grip Tighter: Is the Bottom Near?

75% Volume Spike, Four (FORM) Dips, Bears Grip Tighter: Is the Bottom Near?

The post 75% Volume Spike, Four (FORM) Dips, Bears Grip Tighter: Is the Bottom Near? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. FORM is hovering around the $3 range. Trading volume has surged by over 75%. The bearish wave in the crypto market has triggered a majority of the assets to enter the red zone. As the tokens lose momentum, along with the largest assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), are currently hovering at $109.4K and $4.4K. Notably, the altcoin, Four (FORM), has become the top loser of the day.  FORM has reported a steady loss of over 21.12%. In the early hours, the asset traded at a high range of $3.81. With a potential bearish shift, the price has slipped toward a low of $2.82. If the bears do not take a rest, the price might see more downside.  As reported by CoinMarketCap data, the negative outlook has triggered the FORM price to trade within the $3.05 range. Meanwhile, the asset’s market cap has reached $1.17 billion, with Four’s daily trading volume has increased by over 75.05%, touching the $149.06 million mark.  Is There a Floor for FORM’s Price? When FORM’s both the Moving Average Convergence Divergence line and the signal line are found below the zero line, it implies an overall bearish grip in the market. Also, if the MACD rises above the signal line, the trend is still weak until both lines climb above zero.  Moreover, the Chaikin Money Flow indicator of Four at -0.38 points to a strong selling pressure with the bearish sentiment and weak accumulation in the market. The negative CMF value shows that the money is leaving the asset’s market.  The four-hour price chart exhibits the bear hold, and the price could fall and test the nearby support at $2.98. With the death cross, the downside correction of FORM strengthens, sending the price toward $2.91. Upon a reversal, the asset’s price might climb to the…

Nobel Prize-Winning Economist Warns About Stablecoins: ‘A Collapse Could Happen in a Possible Financial Crisis!’ Details Here

Nobel Prize-Winning Economist Warns About Stablecoins: ‘A Collapse Could Happen in a Possible Financial Crisis!’ Details Here

The post Nobel Prize-Winning Economist Warns About Stablecoins: ‘A Collapse Could Happen in a Possible Financial Crisis!’ Details Here appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jean Tirole, who won the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2014, said that current regulations for stablecoins are inadequate and that governments may have to prepare billions of dollars in rescue packages if these digital assets collapse during a possible financial crisis. Nobel Prize-Winning Economist Warns About Stablecoins: “Inadequate Regulation Could Lead to Government Bailouts” Speaking in an interview, Tirole emphasized that stablecoins are seen as “completely safe deposits” for ordinary users, but in reality, they can lead to serious losses. According to him, if trust in stablecoins is shaken, there could be a mass outflow of deposits, making government intervention inevitable. Tirole also highlighted US Treasury bonds, which stablecoin issuers frequently use as reserve assets. The economist noted that these low-yielding bonds could lose their appeal in the long run, and that companies may be more likely to turn to riskier assets in search of higher returns. This could exacerbate systemic risks. Economic circles frequently point out that despite the stablecoin market’s rapid growth, regulation is slow. Tirole’s statements have reinforced calls for stricter regulations in this area. According to experts, a potential crisis in the stablecoin market could impact not only the crypto ecosystem but also the broader financial system. Tirole’s warning reiterates the need for governments to address potential risks in advance. *This is not investment advice.

Holding steady in August – UOB Group

Holding steady in August – UOB Group

The post Holding steady in August – UOB Group appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) business surveys improved marginally in August while the private sector RatingDog China manufacturing PMI unexpectedly returned to expansion at 50.5 in August (Bloomberg est: 49.8, July: 49.5). The CFLP PMIs which tend to relate more closely with the broader economy, indicate the lack of new growth catalysts as domestic and external demand continue to face headwinds. Earlier data in July showed a broad-based slowdown in industrial production, retail sales, fixed assets investment and surveyed jobless rates, UOB Group’s economist Ho Woei Chen notes. China PMIs show tepid August recovery “The CFLP manufacturing PMI rose 0.1 pt to 49.4 in August (Bloomberg est: 49.5, July: 49.3). This marked the fifth consecutive month that the index is in contraction (reading<50) since the US President Trump’s announcement of the reciprocal tariffs in Apr.” “Within the manufacturing PMI, production (50.8 from 50.5 in July) expanded at a faster pace. New orders (49.5 from 49.4 in July) and new export orders (47.2 from 47.1 in July) inched up 0.1 pt but remained in contraction. Despite a pickup in manufacturing activity, employment (47.9 from 48.0 in July) weakened slightly in August. By enterprise size, the large-sized enterprises (50.8 from 50.3 in July) continued to outperform. The outlook for medium-sized enterprises (48.9 from 49.5 in July) and small-sized enterprises (46.6 from 46.4 in July) stayed in contraction in August.” “The CFLP non-manufacturing PMI added 0.2 pt to 50.3 in August (Bloomberg est: 50.2, July: 50.1). Improvements in the services index (50.5 from 50.0 in June) cushioned the slump in the construction index (49.1 from 50.6 from in July) which registered its first contraction in seven months, with weakness contributed by the adverse weather conditions.” Source: https://www.fxstreet.com/news/china-holding-steady-in-august-uob-group-202509010925

Famous CEO Praises This Altcoin! “After Bitcoin, It’s Become the Most Known Altcoin on Wall Street! A Tough Rival for Ethereum Is Coming!”

Famous CEO Praises This Altcoin! “After Bitcoin, It’s Become the Most Known Altcoin on Wall Street! A Tough Rival for Ethereum Is Coming!”

The post Famous CEO Praises This Altcoin! “After Bitcoin, It’s Become the Most Known Altcoin on Wall Street! A Tough Rival for Ethereum Is Coming!” appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. After Bitcoin and Etheruem received ETF approval from the SEC, it is expected that altcoins such as XRP, Solana and Litecoin (LTC) will also receive approval this year. While the subsequent debate focuses on how much inflow the XRP ETF can attract, some analysts predict large inflows, while others predict weak inflows. The final comment at this point came from Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg, who also filed a spot XRP ETF application. In a recent interview with Paul Barron’s, Steven McClurg stated that XRP ETFs could attract substantial inflows. The renowned CEO even argued that XRP could rival Ethereum’s market capitalization. “XRP ETF could attract $5 billion in inflows in first month and surpass ETH.” The famous CEO noted that the SEC is very likely to approve XRP ETFs because XRP futures are already offered on Coinbase and CME. At this point, the famous CEO stated that XRP ETFs are one of the strongest candidates to receive approval and pointed to the end of the year at the latest. “If I had to guess, I’d predict XRP will get ETF approval this year, along with Litecoin, possibly HBAR, and Solana. I believe those will happen in 2025.” Canary Capital CEO McClurg recently added that XRP is the most well-known cryptocurrency after Bitcoin in Wall Street and financial circles. *This is not investment advice.

BRC20 Enables EVM-Style Smart Contracts With ‘BRC2.0’

BRC20 Enables EVM-Style Smart Contracts With ‘BRC2.0’

The post BRC20 Enables EVM-Style Smart Contracts With ‘BRC2.0’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin token protocol BRC20 has taken a step toward enabling Ethereum-style smart contracts. The Bitcoin token protocol has integrated Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) into its core logic as of Bitcoin block 912,690, according to an announcement shared with CoinDesk on Monday. BRC20 is a token standard for issuing fungible tokens on the Bitcoin blockchain via the Ordinals protocol, which allows data to be inscribed on individual satoshis (the smallest denomination of BTC, equivalent to one hundred millionth of a bitcoin). EVM is the operating system on Ethereum that allows the execution of smart contracts, making tokens programmable and removing the need for centralized governance. The upgrade, dubbed BRC2.0, was executed by Ordinals developer Best in Slot alongside BRC20’s pseudonymous creator Domo. “Bitcoin meta-protocols like Ordinals, Runes and BRC20 run on indexers, which function like simple calculators. We upgraded this ‘calculator-style’ indexer with EVM, making BRC20 Turing complete,” Best in Slot CEO Eril Binari Ezerel said in the announcement. The advent of the Ordinals protocol at the start of 2023 provided much of the impetus for subsequent developments of greater utility on Bitcoin, such as allowing smart contract capabilities akin to those inherent to Ethereum and other networks. “The holy grail is combining the two gold standards: Bitcoin as the most decentralized and secure network, and the EVM as the most proven virtual machine,” Domo said. “The aim is to give users the Ethereum experience of composability and programmability, but secured by Bitcoin.” Source: https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2025/09/01/bitcoin-token-protocol-brc20-enables-evm-style-smart-contracts-with-brc2-0

Only 12 Out of 100 Tokens Fit SEC Fast-Track ETF Approval Plan: Galaxy

Only 12 Out of 100 Tokens Fit SEC Fast-Track ETF Approval Plan: Galaxy

The post Only 12 Out of 100 Tokens Fit SEC Fast-Track ETF Approval Plan: Galaxy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The race to bring more crypto assets to the stock market as ETFs may leave most stuck on the sidelines, Galaxy Digital found. Efforts to speed up crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF) approvals in the United States may actually sideline most tokens in the foreseeable future, Galaxy Digital’s research associate Lucas Tcheyan revealed in a recent report. The new research estimates that only 12 of the top 100 assets by market capitalization beyond BTC and ETH would make the cut. In late July, Cboe’s BZX Exchange, Nasdaq, and NYSE Arca all filed 19b-4 forms with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to propose listing standards for crypto ETFs that would replace today’s case-by-case system. The applications come as the SEC faces a pileup of 91 pending crypto ETF requests covering 24 tokens and several index products, per Galaxy’s report. And while the agency’s final possible deadline for a verdict is March 27, 2026, Tcheyan thinks the call will likely come earlier, due to a “friendlier SEC attitude toward crypto.” Short List For now, only 10 tokens qualify under the fast-track criteria: Dogecoin (DOGE), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), Chainlink (LINK), Stellar (XLM), Avalanche (AVAX), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Polkadot (DOT), Solana (SOL), and Hedera (HBAR), according to the Galaxy Digital report. Cardano (ADA) and XRP are also expected to join them in September and October respectively, once the two assets pass the required six months of regulated futures trading, Tcheyan writes. “We view these as more likely to see ETF launches given their qualification under the proposed fast-track rule, and very likely if the rule is accepted,” Tcheyan wrote, referring to the above assets. Tokens listed on Coinbase derivates and that meet ETF fast-track requirements. Source: Galaxy Digital Of those, nine tokens already have ETF applications on file, making them front-runners…
