Oracle

Oracles are essential infrastructure components that feed real-time, off-chain data (such as price feeds, weather, or sports results) into blockchain smart contracts. Without decentralized oracles like Chainlink and Pyth, DeFi could not function. In 2026, oracles have evolved to support verifiable randomness and cross-chain data synchronization. This tag covers the technical evolution of data availability, tamper-proof price feeds, and the critical role oracles play in ensuring the deterministic execution of complex decentralized applications.

Robert Kiyosaki goes after Warren Buffett for gold and silver skepticism

Robert Kiyosaki goes after Warren Buffett for gold and silver skepticism

The post Robert Kiyosaki goes after Warren Buffett for gold and silver skepticism appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kiyosaki said he wants to “vomit” after hearing the exiting Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett touting investments in gold and silver after bashing the precious metals for decades. According to the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, this means the market is about to crash. Warren Buffett has been bearish on gold since he took the reins at the Omaha-based multinational holding conglomerate in 1970, saying it is “neither of much use nor procreative.” During a shareholder meeting in 2005, the Oracle of Omaha said precious metals were “down on his store of value list,” adding that he would rather invest in a “hundred acres of land near Nebraska, or an apartment house, or an index fund.” Twenty years later, according to Robert Kiyosaki, Buffett is now touting the benefits of investing in the two assets, as spot gold rose 0.4% to reach $3,872 per ounce. In contrast, US gold futures for December delivery climbed 0.7% to $3,901. Silver is up $47.27 per troy ounce, a 15.55% uptick over the past month and 48.43% higher than the same period a year ago, according to CFD trading data tracking the benchmark market. “I want to vomit: getting nauseous, listening to Buffett tout the virtues of gold and silver… after he ridiculed gold and silver for years,” Kiyosaki wrote on X. “That means the stock and bond markets are about to crash. Depression ahead?” Buffett did not like gold In a 2011 interview with CNBC, Buffett called gold investments “a way of going along on fear.” He proposed that its value was largely based on sentiment, explaining that when people were fearful, gold demand and prices rose. At the same time, calmer conditions led to a decline in demand and, eventually, a drop in prices. Despite his long-standing criticism, Berkshire Hathaway briefly…

‘Depression Ahead?’: ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ Author Kiyosaki Slams Bitcoin Critic Warren Buffett

‘Depression Ahead?’: ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ Author Kiyosaki Slams Bitcoin Critic Warren Buffett

The post ‘Depression Ahead?’: ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ Author Kiyosaki Slams Bitcoin Critic Warren Buffett appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Robert Kiyosaki, the bestselling author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” launched a fresh attack on Warren Buffett after the billionaire investor made a rare case for gold and silver. Kiyosaki says Buffett’s change in attitude should be seen as a warning, and he has even hinted that a depression could be on the horizon. For decades, Buffett mocked precious metals as “dead weight.” In his view, unlike farmland or businesses that can generate profits, gold does not earn income or create anything useful.  I WANT TO VOMIT: getting nauseus, listening to Buffet tout the virtues of gold and silver…. after he ridiculed gold and silver for years. That means the stock and bond market are about to crash. Depression ahead? Even though Buffet shit on gold and silver investors like me… — Robert Kiyosaki (@theRealKiyosaki) October 1, 2025 This is why Buffett’s recent praise of gold and silver is so surprising. Kiyosaki believes the shift is so dramatic that it signals serious problems brewing in stocks and bonds.  And even though he said Buffett’s words make him “want to vomit,” they also make it clear that investors should not ignore the signs.  Instead of trusting the traditional system, Kiyosaki argues that it is time to hold defensive assets. For him, that means not only gold and silver but also Bitcoin and Ethereum, which he considers essential hedges for the future. Bottom line This clash reveals two very different approaches to interpreting the market. Despite his reputation, the “Oracle of Omaha” is moving toward assets he once dismissed. Kiyosaki, true to form, takes this as proof that the old rules no longer apply. For everyday investors, the message is clear: when even Buffett starts praising gold, a big change may be on the horizon.

Will institutions follow Bitcoin onto other chains?

Will institutions follow Bitcoin onto other chains?

The post Will institutions follow Bitcoin onto other chains? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The success of spot Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and major BTC treasury companies marked another step in the institutional adoption of crypto. US-traded spot Bitcoin ETFs captured $518 million on Sept. 29 and have accumulated $57.3 billion in net flows since their launch in January 2024, according to Farside Investors data. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) crossed $80 billion in assets by July 2025, becoming the fastest ETF to reach that threshold in just 374 trading days. Adding to the stellar performance, names such as Harvard Management Co. and the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund Mubadala disclosed investments in Bitcoin through IBIT. The digital asset treasury movement expanded in tandem with the adoption of ETFs. Strategy increased its Bitcoin holdings to 649,031 BTC worth $72.67 billion as of Sept. 29. Meanwhile, Metaplanet up-sized its share offering to $1.4 billion in September to fund aggressive Bitcoin acquisitions, targeting 210,000 BTC by 2027. Institutions now face a choice between cold storage and yield generation. Max Gokhman, deputy CIO at Franklin Templeton Investment Solutions, noted that yield is a major driver for institutional adoption of crypto. And the SEC is clearing pathways for yield through regulated products. On Aug. 6, a staff statement confirmed that liquid staking tokens do not constitute securities by default, while the Sept. 17 generic listing standards expedited crypto ETF approvals. As more altcoin ETFs are set to launch in the US, potentially offering yields through staking, institutions will gain exposure to the returns that crypto has to offer. This change might impact how Wall Street sees Bitcoin. Bitcoin options fragment across chains Bitcoin is scattered across 365,958.79 BTC in synthetic forms totaling $41.8 billion as of Sept. 30, according to Bitcoin Layers. As Bitcoin does not have native smart contract capabilities, the idea of a synthetic token, commonly referred…

Chainlink And UBS Collaborate With SWIFT To Advance Tokenized Fund Workflows

The post Chainlink And UBS Collaborate With SWIFT To Advance Tokenized Fund Workflows appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sep 30, 2025 at 20:48 // News The project enables financial institutions to manage tokenized fund subscriptions and redemptions directly from their existing systems. The latest crypto news by Coinidol.com. Chainlink, the decentralized oracle network, announced a landmark technical solution developed in collaboration with global financial giant UBS and the global financial messaging network SWIFT. This may become a crucial step in bridging the gap between TradFi (traditional finance) and DeFi (decentralized finance). It provides a “plug-and-play” solution that allows major financial players to access the speed and efficiency of blockchain without fully overhauling their existing technology stacks, accelerating the institutional tokenization trend. SWIFT integration Institutions can now trigger tokenized fund workflows using the same SWIFT messaging (ISO 20022) infrastructure they have used for decades. By utilizing the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE), the solution eliminates a critical technical barrier, allowing traditional finance to seamlessly interact with complex on-chain processes. Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink, commented in the official press release: “UBS is demonstrating how the use of smart contract-based technologies can be used by financial institutions to more readily explore new types of product lifecycle composability.” This breakthrough specifically targets the multi-trillion-dollar global fund industry, reducing operational friction, automating compliance, and paving the way for the large-scale adoption of tokenized real-world assets.

Nvidia stock rose nearly 3% Tuesday, pushing its market cap above $4.5 trillion

Nvidia stock rose nearly 3% Tuesday, pushing its market cap above $4.5 trillion

Nvidia stock hit a new record on Tuesday, rising almost 3% and lifting the company’s market value above $4.5 trillion. The shares have now climbed 39% since the start of the year. This gain comes as the company accelerates its deal-making, placing itself firmly in the middle of the global artificial intelligence race. Investors continue to move money into Nvidia, keeping it the most traded name in the market this year. The AI buildout driving Nvidia’s surge gained more weight last week. OpenAI confirmed that Nvidia would take an equity stake worth up to $100 billion in the AI firm. It also said it would spend hundreds of billions of dollars on new data centers stacked with Nvidia GPUs. OpenAI and Oracle then announced plans for five new mega data centers. They said these facilities would hold hundreds of thousands of GPUs and cost $500 billion under what they call the “Stargate” project.  According to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, the company’s chips now make up about 70% of spending on new AI data centers. Citi lifts Nvidia target as AI deals expand Analysts reacted quickly to the news. Citi raised its price target on Nvidia from $200 to $210 on Tuesday. The bank cited a bigger forecast for AI infrastructure spending after the OpenAI announcements. “We believe OpenAI came to Nvidia asking for help as Nvidia has a very compelling product, and as the number of users and compute being consumed per user basis is growing,” wrote Citi analyst Atif Malik in a note reported by Cryptopolitan. Beyond Nvidia, Wall Street itself showed unexpected strength for September. Stocks closed higher Tuesday as investors brushed aside fears of a U.S. government shutdown. The S&P 500 closed up 0.41% at 6,688.46, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.30% to finish at 22,660.01. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 81.82 points, or 0.18%, to close at 46,397.89, a fresh closing high. The federal government is due to run out of funding at midnight. President Donald Trump said Tuesday about a possible shutdown that “nothing is inevitable, but I would say it’s probably likely.” Nvidia leads as indexes post strong September gains Software stocks struggled during the day. Paychex slipped 1% after its quarterly results and Salesforce fell 3%. Nvidia was a bright spot, climbing in sympathy with CoreWeave, which is backed by Nvidia. Cryptopolitan reported that CoreWeave announced a $14.2 billion artificial intelligence cloud infrastructure deal with Meta Platforms, adding another reason for traders to pile into Nvidia stock. Despite these mixed moves, all three major U.S. indexes are on track for strong monthly gains as September ends. The S&P 500, which has averaged a 4.2% drop in September over the last five years, has risen 3% this month. The Dow is up 1%. The Nasdaq outperformed with a 5% gain in September. Tuesday also marks the end of the third quarter. Quarter to date, the S&P 500 is up 7%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq is set to notch an 11% quarterly gain. The blue-chip Dow has climbed 5% since June, making it five straight quarterly advances. Some analysts also pointed to other AI-related moves. BTIG analyst Marvin Fong wrote in a note that Etsy’s partnership with OpenAI’s ChatGPT puts the e-commerce platform “at the leading edge of agentic commerce.” He raised his price target on Etsy by $9 to $81, suggesting about 9% upside from the most recent close of $74.34. “Investors are clearly paying for more than just the immediate impact of this transaction,” Fong wrote. “Furthermore, we see ChatGPT’s scale, the [total addressable market] unlock, future agentic innovation and the fact we viewed ETSY as undervalued to begin with as justifying today’s price action.” If you're reading this, you’re already ahead.
