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.

Key points: The Crypto Fear & Greed Index is back at levels not seen since Bitcoin traded at $83,000. Analysis wonders whether the BTC price “turning point” is already here.

New data from the Crypto Fear & Greed Index shows that “fear” now drives the mood.

Pizzino referred to the emerging divergence between price and sentiment.

Solana News: $245M Loss, Market Turns Against Top Treasury Firm

Solana News: $245M Loss, Market Turns Against Top Treasury Firm

The post Solana News: $245M Loss, Market Turns Against Top Treasury Firm appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Forward Industries has recorded a massive loss of $245 million on its Solana crypto investment in a latest news update. The firm recently bought over 6.8 million SOL at $232 each. With Solana trading near $194 this week, the strategy to build a major Solana treasury comes under pressure as prices fall and futures activity surges. Solana News: Forward Industries’ Big Bet Turns Risky Forward Industries has seen its large Solana investment lose value quickly. The company bought 6,822,000 SOL at an average of $232 per coin earlier this week. The deal cost about $1.58 billion with a plan to build what its leaders called the world’s largest Solana treasury company. In Solana news today, SOL price is close to $194. This means the value of the firm’s holdings has dropped by about $245 million. The sharp fall has raised questions about the company’s strategy. It also shows how fast conditions can change in the digital asset market. Over the past week, Solana’s price has fallen more than 18%. Among the top-20 cryptocurrencies, this is one of the steepest drops. Forward Industries Down on Solana Bet | Source: Lookonchain The decline has been linked to heavy activity in the futures market. Open interest, which measures outstanding futures contracts, has reached 71.8 million SOL. This equals about $14.5 billion. Analysts say the rise in open interest shows that traders are taking bigger positions. Funding rates have moved back into positive territory, showing that most traders are betting on the price to rise. However, because the market is still under pressure, this may set up the risk of a long squeeze. A long squeeze happens when a price drop forces many traders to close positions, pushing the price even lower. In further solana news, technical charts also suggest more risk. SOL price…

Top-Level FED Member Bowman Makes Critical Statements on Interest Rates and the US Economy

Top-Level FED Member Bowman Makes Critical Statements on Interest Rates and the US Economy

The post Top-Level FED Member Bowman Makes Critical Statements on Interest Rates and the US Economy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. FED member Michelle Bowman said in her assessments of monetary policy that the neutral interest rate is higher than before the pandemic. Bowman argued that the Fed’s inflation is within its target range, but that risks to the labor market outweigh the risks. Bowman stated that he favors a gradual approach to interest rate adjustments, saying, “It is critical to protect employment by taking decisive and proactive steps now.” He noted that the impact of monetary policy on the economy will be evident over time, emphasizing the importance of the central bank’s ability to make independent decisions. Bowman said the Fed should aim for the smallest possible balance sheet size in the long term. He argued that it would be healthier to keep reserves closer to scarcity than abundance, adding, “Allowing limited volatility in money markets allows us to better understand market functioning and risks.” Bowman stated that he strongly supports holding only Treasury bonds on the Fed’s balance sheet, saying that shifting to shorter-term bonds would give the Fed greater flexibility. He also added that the Fed should actively consider selling its mortgage-backed securities (MBS) holdings. Bowman stated that the impact of one-time tariffs should be ignored, while the revised wage data indicated that the Fed was at risk of “falling behind.” He emphasized the importance of a more forward-looking and proactive approach, saying, “Remaining rigidly dependent on data leads to a backward-looking perspective and condemns us to constantly reacting late to the current situation.” Bowman also noted that slowing population growth and an aging population will be factors that will lower the neutral interest rate in the long run. He also noted that technological advances could lead to a lasting increase in productivity. The governor said that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) may need to take “faster…

Pharma stocks drop despite limited impact from new U.S. drug tariffs

Pharma stocks drop despite limited impact from new U.S. drug tariffs

The post Pharma stocks drop despite limited impact from new U.S. drug tariffs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Major drug company shares declined Friday after President Donald Trump announced 100% tariffs on imported branded medications, though analysts believe most large pharmaceutical firms will escape serious financial damage from these trade policies. Indian drug manufacturers experienced stock price decreases even as industry specialists indicated the tariffs would barely affect their business operations. Share values for Sun Pharmaceutical dropped 2.5% while Divi’s Laboratories fell 3.5% on Friday. The sector benchmark Nifty Pharma Index dropped over 2%. According to Sudarshan Jain, an official at the Indian Pharmaceutical Alliance, who spoke with CNBC, Indian firms primarily export generic medications to the United States, which means the anticipated impact should be quite limited. Yet investor anxiety seems rooted in a wider pattern of mounting trade disputes rather than immediate operational concerns. Broader trade tensions with India escalate Speaking to CNBC, Ayush Abhijeet, director of investments at White Oak Capital Partners, noted that international market observers interpret these tariffs as another chapter in recent economic pressures on India. The United States first introduced 25% tariffs on India during August, then raised these to 50% while citing India’s Russian oil purchases. White House trade advisor Peter Navarro called Russia’s conflict in Ukraine “Modi’s war.” Trade barriers have most severely affected Indian businesses in textiles, gems and jewelry, plus marine products. However, given that India’s economy depends largely on domestic spending, the overall tariff effects stay constrained. Last week, President Trump introduced a single-payment $100,000 fee for new H-1B visa applications, a policy that may disproportionately impact Indian technology workers. This series of quick policy announcements has heightened investor anxiety, with many concerned about additional escalation from Washington. Gyanendra Tripathi, partner at risk advisory firm BDO Partners, believes these sequential U.S. measures could represent bargaining strategies designed to accelerate trade negotiations with India. At the same…

Above $110K; ETH, SOL, DOGE Rebound as Crypto Fear & Greed Sinks

Above $110K; ETH, SOL, DOGE Rebound as Crypto Fear & Greed Sinks

The post Above $110K; ETH, SOL, DOGE Rebound as Crypto Fear & Greed Sinks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto markets modestly bounced on Friday with BTC$109,491.48 back above $110,000. Ethereum’s ETH$4,017.18 outperformed with a 3.8% gain to cross $4,000, while DOGE$0.2317 rose 3.4% and SOL$202.13 added 2.5%. The cautious bid came as fresh inflation data landed squarely in line with forecasts. The Fed’s preferred measure of prices, the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index, rose 2.7% year-over-year in August, while core PCE excluding food and energy climbed 2.9%. The data report reinforced the Fed’s narrative of gradually easing price pressures, said Fabian Dori, CIO at Sygnum Bank, but it also leaves policymakers balancing sticky inflation with a softer labor market backdrop. “For investors, the implications are twofold: if inflation trends lower, risk assets may find support from confidence in the Fed’s easing cycle,” he said. “But any upside surprises in coming data could push back short-term rate cut expectations, weighing on equities and boosting the U.S. dollar.” Crypto sentiment turns fearful Meanwhile, sentiment in crypto remained fragile. The Fear & Greed Index, a well-followed sentiment indicator, plummeted to 28 on Friday, its most depressed level since mid-April signaling “fear” among traders. That reflected recent volatility after Thursday’s $1.1 billion liquidation wave wiped out leveraged long positions. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index sunk to its lowest since April’s correction. (Alternative.me) “In recent days, roughly $3 billion of levered longs have been liquidated,” noted Matt Mena, strategist at digital asset manager 21Shares. With excess leverage largely flushed out, he said positioning has swung to an extreme bearish, Mena noted: popular tokens such as BTC, SOL, and DOGE now show a long-to-short ratio of just one-to-nine. That, combined with the Fear & Greed Index at near extremes lows, “sets the stage for a potential short squeeze,” Mena argued. Paul Howard, senior director at trading firm Wincent, didn’t share to positive outlook…

According to Bloomberg, SoftBank and ARK are in talks to participate in Tether’s major funding round.

The Real Face Behind BlockDAG’s $410M Success

The Real Face Behind BlockDAG’s $410M Success

The post The Real Face Behind BlockDAG’s $410M Success appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 27 September 2025 | 00:30 Discover how Antony Turner, the founder of BlockDAG, is leading with execution — from a $410M presale and 3M+ mobile miners to a live Testnet and 19.5K+ hardware rigs. BlockDAG has a real face, and it’s delivering. In a space dominated by pseudonymous founders and faceless ventures, Antony Turner stands out as a name and face that carries weight. At a time when investor trust is fragile, Turner’s leadership brings something many crypto projects can’t offer: visible accountability and operational credibility. BlockDAG, under Turner’s direction, has raised over $410 million in presale funds, rolled out a live Testnet dubbed “Awakening,” shipped over 20k mining devices, and is powering more than 3 million mobile miners. Unlike founders who sell future potential, Turner is already delivering performance through real infrastructure and product rollouts. And this isn’t his first rodeo; his prior roles at Spirit Blockchain and SwissOne Capital established a track record of results in both public markets and regulated crypto investing. With Batch 30 now live, a current price of $0.0016, BlockDAG’s climb is driven by one thing: leadership that executes, not speculates. From Public Markets to Protocol Mechanics: Turner’s Road to BlockDAG Antony Turner didn’t appear out of nowhere. Long before the word “blockchain” became a marketing buzzword, Turner had already planted his roots in the financial and operational core of the industry. His role as Chief Operating Officer at Spirit Blockchain wasn’t symbolic; it was hands-on. He helped manage a publicly listed investment vehicle through volatile market conditions, ensuring transparency, regulatory reporting, and real capital allocation across blockchain-focused assets. This wasn’t about narratives. It was about managing investor money under compliance rules while building exposure to one of the world’s riskiest asset classes. Before that, Turner founded SwissOne Capital, a first-of-its-kind digital…

Can Ethereum Bounce Above $4,841 or Slide Toward $3,000?

Can Ethereum Bounce Above $4,841 or Slide Toward $3,000?

The post Can Ethereum Bounce Above $4,841 or Slide Toward $3,000? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum fell below $4,000 amid global uncertainty and market pressure. ETH support sits between $3,900 and $3,600 for short-term bottom. Upcoming PCE data may push Ethereum toward $4,100 or lower $3,000. The crypto market faced a sharp sell-off today, with Ethereum dropping under $4,000 for the first time in six weeks. The decline comes amid growing uncertainty in global markets, institutional activity, and broader macroeconomic risks. Related: Top 3 Mid-Cap Altcoins to Watch as Bitcoin Falls Below $109K, ETH $4K A Drop Below $3000 In Play? Ethereum’s latest drop coincides with reports that BlackRock sold more than 25,000 ETH in a single day. ETH is trading around $3,900 and sits at a critical point on the MVRV deviation bands. Analyst Ali Martinez has observed that ETH must break above $4,841 to reverse the current downtrend. A successful move higher could open the door to a run toward $5,864. If the price fails to clear resistance, a correction could follow with downside risk toward $2,750, a level that aligns with lower deviation support.  Are The Next 24 Hours Crucial For Ethereum? Immediate Support Levels For ETH Ethereum faces a crucial 24 hours as it tests support after its most bearish week since August. The coin has lost its uptrend against both the dollar and Bitcoin, signaling relative weakness. Important levels sit between $3,900 and $3,600, with $3,700–$3,800 seen as the most likely zone for a short-term bottom.  Upcoming Catalysts For ETH The release of the PCE price index today could act as a catalyst, and weaker-than-expected data may help Ethereum stabilize. A rebound toward $4,100 remains possible if support holds, but failure to do so could open the door to deeper losses toward $3,300 or even $3,000.  Geopolitical and Domestic Pressures Weigh on Markets Reports of U.S. jets intercepting Russian bombers…
