DEX

DEXs are peer-to-peer marketplaces where users trade cryptocurrencies directly from their wallets via Automated Market Makers (AMM) or on-chain order books. By removing central authorities, DEXs like Uniswap and Raydium prioritize privacy and user sovereignty. The 2026 DEX landscape is dominated by intent-based trading, MEV protection, and cross-chain liquidity aggregation.

Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up

Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up

The post Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: HeavenDEX became the 3rd-largest revenue protocol on Solana after launch. YZY token launch pushed throughput to 4,298 TPS in August. Rising tokenization could drive new demand for SOL and impact the price. The Solana network recorded rising activity in August 2025 as memecoin launchpads expanded on mainnet. The newly launched platform, HeavenDEX, ranked as the third-largest protocol by revenue, while the YZY token launch pushed throughput above 4,000 TPS. The developments raised questions about whether SOL price could move toward another all-time high soon. Solana Memecoin Launchpads Drive Competition A new memecoin launchpad called HeavenDEX became the third-largest revenue generator on Solana within days of its debut. Data from DeFiLlama on August 21, 2025, showed that HeavenDEX earned $1.02 million in 24-hour revenue. Pump.Fun topped the chart with 1.57 million, while Axiom Pro followed with 1.5 million. Jupiter and Phantom completed the top five. Solana HeavenDEX Launchpad in Spotlight | Source: SolanaFloor The sudden rise of HeavenDEX reflected growing interest in Solana-based launchpads. This trend is similar to earlier activity in January, when Solana reached its all-time high price following the launch of the TRUMP token. Similarly, heavy demand for new tokens helped lift SOL to record levels at the time. Activities are once again increasing on-chain as the YZY token went live. According to MartyParty, a market observer, Solana handled 4,298 transactions per second during the launch. He suggested this was a sign of what might come if larger token sales were carried out on the network. Solana Steps Up Amid YZY Token Launch | Source: MartyParty The impact of these launches is notably beyond individual tokens. Each new memecoin project required SOL for trading, fees, and liquidity, creating new demand for the native coin. With multiple launchpads now competing for attention, token creation on Solana is…

$70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion

$70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion

The post $70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol with $70 billion in net deposits, has launched on Aptos, a layer-1 blockchain founded by former Meta employees. The move may deepen stablecoin and liquid staking token liquidity on the blockchain, two asset classes subject to regulation in 2025. According to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Aave will support four coins native to the blockchain at launch: stablecoins USDC (USDC) and USDt (USDT), Aptos (APT), and Ethena Staked USDe (sUSDe). The Aptos Foundation will provide users with rewards and liquidity incentives to promote the use of Aave on the Aptos blockchain. The arrival of Aave could deepen stablecoin liquidity on the blockchain, as the fiat-pegged cryptocurrencies are experiencing a breakthrough and are one of the industry’s most-discussed use cases. On Aptos, the stablecoin market cap has surged in 2025, jumping to $1.27 billion on Thursday from $627.8 million on Jan. 1. Stablecoin market cap on Aptos. Source: DefiLlama The launch comes as Aave positions itself to take advantage of “new collateral markets,” such as liquid staking tokens (LSTs). LSTs are a type of token given to users who stake assets, contributing to network security. These tokens can be used for DeFi activities such as lending or trading. “By expanding to Aptos, Aave increases access to lending, borrowing, and savings to a new, fast-growing community,” an Aave spokesperson told Cointelegraph. Currently, Aptos has a total value locked of $857 million, according to DefiLlama. Aave enters an ecosystem with few DeFi protocol competitors. Of the top five protocols listed by DefiLlama, only one has a total value locked of over $1 billion: PancakeSwap at $2.1 billion.

Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens

Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens

The post Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase has started introducing decentralized-exchange (DEX) trading inside its main platform, giving customers direct access to every token issued on Base, the company’s Ethereum layer-2 network Coinbase has started introducing decentralized-exchange (DEX) trading inside its main platform, giving customers direct access to every token issued on Base, the company’s Ethereum layer-2 network. Chief Executive Officer Brian Armstrong and Base lead Jesse Pollak announced the rollout during a livestream on Thursday, saying the step aligns with Coinbase’s aim to let users trade “everything you want to trade.” The feature, which routes orders through on-chain smart contracts rather than Coinbase’s centralized order book, is already available to roughly 5% of the exchange’s customers and will be expanded in stages, according to remarks made during the event. Integrating Base’s on-chain liquidity is intended to shorten listing times for new tokens and deepen trading volumes while allowing Coinbase to earn fees from wallet interactions. The move underscores Coinbase’s broader shift toward on-chain services as it diversifies revenue streams amid heightened regulatory scrutiny of its conventional exchange business. Base, launched last year, has attracted a growing ecosystem of developers; tighter integration with Coinbase’s 100-million-plus user base could accelerate adoption of the network.

The market holds its breath as the world watches Powell's speech at Jackson Hole

The market holds its breath as the world watches Powell's speech at Jackson Hole

Key Highlights: Event focus: The Jackson Hole economic policy symposium will be held from August 21 to 23, 2025, and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will speak at 14:00 GMT on Friday. Rate cut expectations: The market expects an 83% chance of a 25 basis point rate cut on September 17, down from 94% last week. Dollar impact: Lower interest rates tend to weaken the dollar and boost risky assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies. Powell's tone matters: a dovish Powell could drive a breakout in EUR/USD; a hawkish tone could trigger profit-taking. EUR/USD Setup: The EUR/USD pair has rallied 13% year to date and is trading near 1.168, just below the key resistance level of 1.182. Neutral technicals: Flat MACD and RSI at 50 reflect market indecision ahead of Powell’s speech. Macro Background The Jackson Hole Symposium, hosted annually by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Wyoming, has become one of the most anticipated macroeconomic events of the year. While a gathering of global central bankers, economists, and academics gathers, this year's market focus is on one figure: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, who will deliver a speech at 2:00 PM GMT on Friday. The stakes are high. The Fed will announce its next interest rate decision on September 17th, and investors are eager for forward guidance. US interest rates are currently at 4.5%, and the market is pricing in an 83% chance of a cut to 4.25%. Just a week ago, that probability was as high as 94%, highlighting the heightened uncertainty. Why is this important for traders? Lower interest rates reduce the appeal of US dollar savings and US Treasury yields. This typically leads to capital flows into riskier assets such as technology stocks, cryptocurrencies, and non-US currencies like the euro, yen, and franc. Conversely, higher interest rates can boost the US dollar and put pressure on stocks and commodities. Beyond interest rates, the Jackson Hole symposium is likely to address broader macro themes: Trade policy: Continued tariff uncertainty involving Europe, Japan, and China Geopolitics: US, Russia hold peace talks on Ukraine Labor market: The employment situation is weak, with the latest non-farm payroll data showing a slowdown in hiring and an increase in the unemployment rate. Over the past few years, the market has reacted strongly to Powell's comments: On August 26, 2022, Powell delivered a hawkish speech, hinting at a rate hike. The US dollar surged, and the S&P 500 index sold off. Source: TradingView On August 23, 2024, Powell delivered dovish remarks, triggering a rise in stock markets and a general decline in the US dollar. Source: TradingView Given the current level of uncertainty, another outsized move could occur this Friday. Technical analysis: EUR/USD The EUR/USD pair is a key barometer of sentiment toward the US dollar. When the dollar weakens, the EUR/USD ratio tends to rise, and vice versa. So far in 2025, EUR/USD has risen 13%, supported by expectations of easing US monetary policy and a more proactive fiscal stance in the Eurozone. Increased military investment across the EU, coupled with tariff-driven supply chain shifts, has also supported the euro. Currently, the pair is trading around 1.168, having peaked at 1.182 on July 1st. The short-term outlook depends largely on Powell's tone: a dovish scenario: a break above 1.182 could quickly target the psychological 1.2 level. If 1.2 is broken, the next targets include the May 2021 high of 1.227 and the January 2021 peak of 1.235. Hawkish scenario: The dollar could strengthen if Powell signals no immediate rate cut. A break below 1.16 could see a drop towards 1.14, which was a key support level earlier this year. The momentum indicator currently has no clear bias: An RSI of 50 indicates a neutral stance, often the “calm before the storm.” The MACD is flat with no crossover or momentum divergence, confirming indecision. For the RSI to reach overbought or oversold levels, EUR/USD would need a strong move, as the RSI indicator is neutral at 50. On the daily chart, resistance lies precisely at 70. Therefore, to reclaim this level, EUR/USD would likely need to break through the resistance level of 1.182 from July 1st. On the daily chart, EUR/USD's move down to RSI 30 was even more powerful, well below 1.14. From a technical perspective, a decline to 1.10 is possible. This technical picture aligns with fundamental uncertainty, as traders remain on the sidelines awaiting signals. Traders should also note the following: Volatility Setup: The probability of a sharp breakout increases due to narrow technical range and known macro catalysts. Leverage sensitivity: EUR/USD trading often comes with leverage, and even small fluctuations can result in high profits (or high risks), depending on the position size. Profit-taking risk: A surprising hawkish move could trigger broad-based buying of the dollar and liquidate EUR/USD longs that profited earlier this year. Source: TradingView Jackson Hole compared to previous years This year is unique in the divergence between data and market sentiment. Inflation is softening and the job market is cooling, which typically suggests more accommodative policy. However, geopolitical risks and trade frictions are fueling inflationary pressures, and the Fed may be reluctant to cut rates too quickly. This is why Powell's policy guidance on Friday is crucial. Even subtle hints from the Fed regarding its views on tariffs, unemployment, and/or global economic growth could influence interest rate expectations for the rest of the year. The market is currently divided among the following possibilities: Two rate cuts before the end of the year brought the Fed's interest rate down to 4.0%. Three rate cuts will bring the interest rate to 3.75% by 2025 Only cut rates once if inflation and/or geopolitics worsen The more dovish Powell's comments are, the more likely the dollar will weaken. But if he emphasizes risk and patience, traders may flock back to the dollar. in conclusion The Jackson Hole Symposium is always important, but this year it could be decisive for the US dollar and global markets. Traders should note: Powell's speech at 14:00 GMT on Friday EUR/USD breaks through 1.182 or falls below 1.16 Changes in the probability of a September rate cut Cross-asset reaction, particularly cryptocurrencies, stocks, and gold Positioning remains underweight as momentum indicators are neutral. However, volatility could surge once Powell speaks. Traders should be prepared for range breaks, dollar volatility, and headline-driven price action, which could set the tone for the remainder of 2025.
