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.

U.S. Core PCE Inflation Steady at 2.9% for August 2025

U.S. Core PCE Inflation Steady at 2.9% for August 2025

The post U.S. Core PCE Inflation Steady at 2.9% for August 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Points: The U.S. core PCE price index for August remained at 2.9%, matching forecasts. Market stability observed as no new interest rate changes are expected. Key crypto assets like BTC and ETH showed muted reactions. The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported on September 26 that the Core PCE price index remained unchanged at 2.9% in August 2025, matching market expectations. The stable inflation reading suggests no immediate Federal Reserve policy shifts, maintaining predictable monetary conditions favorable to risk assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. U.S. Inflation and Crypto Market Stability In Focus The core PCE index, the Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of inflation, remained at 2.9% in August 2025. This figure closely aligns with market predictions, indicating that inflationary pressures are consistent with previous months. Policymakers and market observers expected no shifts in monetary policy given the matching of expectations. The implications of this include a muted response from financial markets. No significant policy or market shifts occurred, suggesting stability in both traditional and digital asset sectors in the immediate term. This potentially reinforces existing economic strategies without necessitating adjustments to interest rates. On the day of the announcement, market indicators showed minimal volatility, with key figures across financial and crypto sectors maintaining the status quo. Commentary from economic policymakers and industry leaders was notably absent, indicating the expected market response did not prompt significant actions or statements. Bitcoin’s Performance Amid PCE Stability Did you know? When core PCE aligns with forecasts, major cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH typically experience stability, similar to when August 2022 saw the same result. As of September 26, 2025, Bitcoin’s price stands at $109,717.67 with a market cap of 2.19 trillion and a market dominance of 57.78%. Over the past 24 hours, trading volume was $58,025,871,478.04, down by 22.95%. Bitcoin’s price change in…

What Will the Bitcoin Price Be at the End of 2025? 10 Major Companies and Analysts Weigh In

What Will the Bitcoin Price Be at the End of 2025? 10 Major Companies and Analysts Weigh In

The post What Will the Bitcoin Price Be at the End of 2025? 10 Major Companies and Analysts Weigh In appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. With less than 100 days left until the end of 2025, leading figures and institutions in the cryptocurrency world are sharing eye-catching price predictions for Bitcoin (BTC). The largest cryptocurrency is currently trading at around $109,000, which is just 11% below its all-time high. The leading predictions are as follows: Bitwise: $200,000 Standard Chartered: 200 thousand dollars VanEck: $180,000 Matrixport: $160,000 Galaxy Digital: $185,000 Bernstein: $200,000 Anthony Scaramucci: $180,000–$200,000 Peter Brandt: $150,000–$280,000 Arthur Hayes: $250,000 Meanwhile, CoinGecko published its “Bitcoin Dominance in Cryptocurrency Portfolios” report, revealing retail investors’ perspectives on Bitcoin. According to the survey, nearly half of investors consider Bitcoin the most important asset in their portfolios. While 20.4% of respondents built their portfolios almost entirely on BTC, the most common strategy, at 28%, was to prioritize Bitcoin and hold small amounts of altcoins. This suggests that many investors are choosing to hold BTC before later diversifying into riskier altcoins. Conversely, approximately a quarter of investors consider Bitcoin less important. 17.3% of respondents distribute their portfolios equally between BTC and altcoins, while 10.2% allocate most of their funds to altcoins and a small portion to BTC. A more extreme 15.9% view Bitcoin as completely unimportant and invest solely in altcoins. This group believes BTC now has limited growth potential or is keeping its distance from the leading cryptocurrency for various reasons. *This is not investment advice.

Cardano Confirms Death Cross Amid $855 Million Crypto Market Crash, What’s Next?

Cardano Confirms Death Cross Amid $855 Million Crypto Market Crash, What’s Next?

The post Cardano Confirms Death Cross Amid $855 Million Crypto Market Crash, What’s Next? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cardano has created a death cross: the bearish technical pattern — which occurs when a short-term moving average falls below the long term MA — has appeared on the four-hour chart. Cardano fell alongside the rest of the markets at the start of the week, recording a sharp drop in Monday’s session from $0.888 to $0.788. Cardano has broadly declined since a high of $0.937 on Sept. 19, reaching a low of $0.754 on Thursday. ADA/USD 4-Hour Chart, Courtesy: TradingView In the last 24 hours, more than $855 million have been liquidated across various digital assets, according to CoinGlass data. Longs accounted for the majority of this figure, coming in at $721.54 million, while shorts came in at $133.22 million. Core inflation was little changed in August, according to the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge, likely keeping the central bank on pace for interest rate cuts ahead. The personal consumption expenditures price index rose 0.3% for the month, putting the annual headline inflation rate at 2.7%, the Commerce Department reported Friday. In the very short term, resistance will be watched at $0.86 ahead of $0.94, while support is envisaged at $0.735. Ouroboros upgrades to boost Cardano Ouroboros Leios is a major redesign of Cardano’s Ouroboros consensus, designed to achieve significant scalability and throughput, pushing Cardano well beyond its current limits. Input Output plans to roll out Leios in iterations, with Leios Lite as the first major step toward full deployment. Leios Lite is anticipated to bring about a 30-55x increase in throughput for Cardano. Ouroboros Omega is a proposed future version of Cardano’s consensus protocol. It aims to combine the benefits of previous Ouroboros variants with additional features like adaptive security and efficient storage. According to Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, “the road to Omega is full of challenges and surprises,…

Markets show signs of caution as risk-seeking traders pull back

Markets show signs of caution as risk-seeking traders pull back

The post Markets show signs of caution as risk-seeking traders pull back appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Stock markets remain near record highs and economic numbers keep beating expectations, but a closer look reveals traders are starting to step away from the riskiest bets that drove much of this year’s gains. Day traders who fueled rallies in everything from tech stocks to cryptocurrency are now pulling money out of the most speculative investments. This shift comes even as the Federal Reserve continues supporting markets and major indexes hover close to recent peaks.The clearest sign of this change shows up in leveraged exchange-traded funds, which use borrowed money to amplify daily stock moves by two or three times. These products, popular with individual investors seeking quick profits, have lost about $7 billion in September. According to Bloomberg Intelligence this is the biggest outflow since records began in 2019. The retreat doesn’t signal widespread panic. Instead, traders appear to be cashing in profits and preparing for possible bumps ahead after months of rewards for taking big risks. Chip fund loses $2.3 billion despite 31% gain Take the Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares fund, known by its ticker SOXL. Despite gaining 31% this month, investors pulled more than $2.3 billion from the fund. Similarly, TSLL, which triples exposure to Tesla stock moves, faces its largest monthly outflow ever with $1.5 billion already withdrawn, even as Tesla shares have been climbing. This careful approach may reflect concerns about upcoming events. A possible government shutdown could delay economic reports and shake investor confidence. Many see the pullback as healthy, given that stock and bond markets have reached levels rarely seen except during the most excited periods of the past twenty years. What stands out is who’s moving first. Individual investors – often called “dumb money” by Wall Street professionals for supposedly making poor timing decisions – have actually been ahead of…

JPMorgan Reveals Its Forecast on the Fed’s Interest Rate Cuts and Discusses the US Economy

JPMorgan Reveals Its Forecast on the Fed’s Interest Rate Cuts and Discusses the US Economy

The post JPMorgan Reveals Its Forecast on the Fed’s Interest Rate Cuts and Discusses the US Economy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Priya Misra, fixed income securities portfolio manager at JPMorgan Asset Management, commented on the US economy, interest rate outlook, and bond markets on the Squawk Box program on CNBC. Misra stated that current interest rates remain restrictive, saying, “I think the Fed will continue to gradually cut interest rates. There are differing opinions on where the neutral interest rate level is, but market data will guide the Fed.” Misra emphasized the strength of corporate balance sheets and the structurally sound environment, but noted that customs duties and high interest rates create cyclical pressure on growth. Therefore, he argued that investors should create diversified portfolios: “Fixed-income assets provide both returns and protection against a slowing economy.” Misra also shared his expectations for the bond market, stating that medium- and long-term, high-quality corporate bonds appear attractive, but caution is exercised against lower-grade, high-yield bonds. Misra noted that the US economy is still performing relatively strongly on a global scale, adding, “We need to hedge the US rather than sell it.” Misra noted that uncertainties regarding the labor market persist, adding that customs duties and possible government shutdowns could put pressure on employment, and that the Fed is therefore cautious about downside risks to employment. *This is not investment advice.

Cyber Hornet Seeks SEC Nod for S&P 500 and XRP ETF

Cyber Hornet Seeks SEC Nod for S&P 500 and XRP ETF

The post Cyber Hornet Seeks SEC Nod for S&P 500 and XRP ETF appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cyber Hornet has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) that combines exposure to the S&P 500 with XRP. The SEC filing also outlines two additional products under the same structure. Cyber Hornet Expands ETF Suite With XRP, Ethereum and Solana Products The SEC filing shows that the Cyber Hornet S&P 500 and XRP 75/25 Strategy ETF will trade under the ticker “XXX” if approved. The ETF aims to replicate the performance of the S&P 500 and the S&P XRP Futures 75/25 Blend Index. This benchmark places 75% of its assets in S&P 500 stocks and 25% in XRP futures traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. To maintain its exposure, the fund will also invest directly in XRP and may use exchange-traded products tied to the asset. The other two products are focused on Ethereum and Solana. The Cyber Hornet S&P 500 and Ethereum 75/25 Strategy ETF will trade under ticker “EEE.” However, the Cyber Hornet S&P 500 and Solana 75/25 Strategy ETF will trade under ticker “SSS.” Both funds follow the same design, combining equities with futures contracts for their respective cryptocurrencies. Ethereum exposure will be managed through Ether futures on the CME and direct holdings. In contrast, the Solana exposure will track the S&P Solana Futures Index. This filing comes as Solana investment products are already gaining momentum, with REX-Osprey’s Solana staking ETF recently hitting a new AUM high. The three Cyber Hornet ETFs will carry an annual management fee of 0.95%, with no shareholder transaction fees. Based on SEC estimates, a $10,000 investment would incur about $100 in fees after one year and $312 after three years. The funds will rebalance monthly to maintain the 75/25 allocation. However, Cyber Hornet reserves the option to adjust more often in…

Day traders pull $7 billion from high-risk leveraged ETFs in September, the biggest outflow since 2019

Day traders pull $7 billion from high-risk leveraged ETFs in September, the biggest outflow since 2019

Stock markets remain near record highs and economic numbers keep beating expectations, but a closer look reveals traders are starting to step away from the riskiest bets that drove much of this year’s gains. Day traders who fueled rallies in everything from tech stocks to cryptocurrency are now pulling money out of the most speculative investments. This shift comes even as the Federal Reserve continues supporting markets and major indexes hover close to recent peaks. The clearest sign of this change shows up in leveraged exchange-traded funds, which use borrowed money to amplify daily stock moves by two or three times.

According to Bloomberg Intelligence this is the biggest outflow since records began in 2019. The retreat doesn’t signal widespread panic.

This careful approach may reflect concerns about upcoming events. A possible government shutdown could delay economic reports and shake investor confidence. Many see the pullback as healthy, given that stock and bond markets have reached levels rarely seen except during the most excited periods of the past twenty years. What stands out is who’s moving first. Individual investors – often called “dumb money” by Wall Street professionals for supposedly making poor timing decisions – have actually been ahead of the curve this year. Their steady buying during the first six months helped drive a rally that many professional investors initially doubted. When markets fell in April due to tariff worries, retail traders were among the first to jump back into risky investments. For the week, the S&P 500 dropped 0.3%, marking its first decline in a month. The tech-focused Nasdaq 100 also posted its first down week since late August, falling 0.5%. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF slipped for a second straight week. Crypto crash wipes out $300 billion As Cryptopolitan reported, cryptocurrency markets added to the cautious mood this week. Digital assets lost roughly $300 billion in value as leveraged positions unwound, forcing sales that pushed Bitcoin and Ether sharply lower in one of the most volatile stretches since the summer. Though prices recovered by Friday, the magnitude of the decline and doubts about business interest could pressure individual investors who had accumulated substantial profits this year. Whether driven by gut feeling or exhaustion, the retreat may signal a broader rethinking of risk. But in markets this elevated, even small mistakes or poorly timed exits can prove costly. No signs point to a major downturn yet, but conditions appear more delicate than before. Money is flowing into safer investments – cash-like funds, gold, and volatility products – at the fastest pace in months. Together, these movements suggest markets are quietly adjusting, with speculative betting retreating even as core investments hold steady. Investment firms are making adjustments, too. Lido Advisors, which manages $30 billion, has added protective strategies like selling covered calls for income and buying put spreads as insurance against losses. This lets them stay invested while managing risk during uncertain times. “We’re teetering on that fine line, when does bad data become bad for the markets?” said Nils Dillon, the firm’s director of portfolio strategy and alternative investments. “And that’s the predicament that the market is finding itself in, particularly this week.” KEY Difference Wire helps crypto brands break through and dominate headlines fast
