Cathie Wood is adding to her crypto-themed stock bets. This week, she put about $31 million into Jack Dorsey’s Block as demand for Bitcoin ETFs picked up again. According to an official announcement on X, ARK Invest bought $30.9 million in Block shares on Monday. The position was spread across three of its funds: ARKK, ARKW, and ARKF.

The ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) recorded roughly $76.4 million in net inflows on Monday, the strongest single-day haul among BTC funds. US spot bitcoin ETFs have now posted gains for three straight days. (Source: Farside Investors) The market also…

The GBP/USD pair traded differently on Tuesday than the EUR/USD pair, even though both pairs have shown similar dynamics in recent days, weeks, and months. Therefore, the reasons for the decline of the British currency should have been sought within the UK. It is worth noting that there were no macroeconomic reports or significant events scheduled for Tuesday in the EU, the UK, or the U.S.. Thus, the search took a while and was not focused on the economy. The cause of the new drop in the British pound was a statement from the "politician of the hour" – Rachel Reeves, the head of the UK Treasury. As mentioned earlier, Reeves has already triggered at least two significant d…

The EUR/USD currency pair remained practically motionless on Tuesday. In general, nearly every day, numerous experts, analysts, and forecasters share their opinions, using expressions like "the dollar has appreciated" or "why is the dollar falling?" We also use such epithets and phrases. But it is essential to understand that a 10-pip rise in the pair is also a decline in the value of the American currency. Conversely, a drop of 10 pips signifies the dollar's growth. But should we treat these price changes as actual growth or decline? From our perspective, when market volatility is minimal, it makes little sense to speak of increases or decreases at all. Essentially, all …

Analysis of GBP/USD 5M The GBP/USD pair fell sharply on Tuesday, like a stone. This was certainly justified, as in recent weeks we have observed average volatility of around 50-60 pips. Yesterday, the British pound lost about 120 pips during the day and only slightly recovered by the evening. The unexpected collapse of sterling was another unfortunate statement from UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves, who is already known for her regular negative impact on the British currency. This time, Reeves hinted that leaving the EU was a mistake for Britain and that the current government is diligently working to restore ties with the Alliance. Additionally, this evening, the FOMC mee…

Analysis of EUR/USD 5M The EUR/USD currency pair traded with minimal volatility on Tuesday, although it received some support from the British pound. The British currency plummeted yesterday due to another unfortunate statement from Chancellor Rachel Reeves, which also caused the euro to begin falling. However, the euro quickly rebounded as traders recalled that the UK's problems pertain to the British pound, not the euro. As a result, we first saw a sharp drop in quotes followed by an equally sharp rise. However, this "sharp drop" was only 40 pips, and practically all movements for the day occurred within the range of 1.1604-1.1666. The macroeconomic background in th…

The Dogecoin price is fighting to hold the psychological $0.20 support as large investors continue offloading holdings and leveraged traders exit the market. The Dogecoin price briefly traded above $0.21 earlier this week, but has since slipped by more than 2%, highlighting the mounting selling pressure in the market. Related Reading: Is The Dogecoin Bull Run Over? Analyst Predicts When DOGE Rallies Again According to on-chain data, whales have sold over 500 million DOGE tokens in the past week, fueling fears of further downside. The selloff coincides with a sharp 61% drop in futures open interest, plunging from $5.03 billion to $1.95 billion, signaling widespread posit…

The U.S. just saw something new. Spot ETFs tracking Solana, Litecoin and Hedera hit the market and together racked up around $65 million in trading volume on their very first day. The clear leader was the Solana fund, which pulled in the bulk of that figure and set the tone for how these altcoin ETFs might perform moving forward. Solana Steals the Show Right Away Within the first hour, the Solana ETF brought in close to $10 million. Hedera’s fund followed with around $4 million, and the Litecoin ETF lagged with just $400,000. The difference in volume paints a clear picture of investor interest, and Solana is way out front. What makes the Solana fund stand out even more i…

Western Union is stepping into the stablecoin space with plans to launch a US dollar–backed token called USDPT on Solana. The token will be issued by Anchorage Digital Bank and is expected to go live sometime in the first half of 2026. It’s a big move for a company that has spent decades operating in the traditional finance world. Fast, Cheap Transfers Are the Main Goal At the core of this decision is a simple goal: make cross-border money transfers faster and cheaper. Instead of waiting days for transactions to settle through old banking networks, Western Union wants to offer near-instant transfers using blockchain. Solana’s low fees and fast speeds are part of what mak…

An analyst has explained how Solana could decide its next big move after rising to $210, the resistance level of a Parallel Channel. Solana Has Been Trading Inside A Parallel Channel Recently In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about how the trajectory of Solana is looking from the perspective of a technical analysis (TA) pattern. The pattern in question is a Parallel Channel, which forms whenever an asset’s price trades between two parallel trendlines. The upper line of the channel is considered a source of resistance, meaning that tops can be probable to appear on retests of it. Similarly, the lower level is assumed to provide support to the price, hel…

The Solana decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem just gained another powerful addition with the launch of SolsticeFi. This innovative new platform is poised to introduce a much-needed layer of risk-controlled yield generation, directly addressing one of the primary concerns for users venturing into the safety of their deposited capital. SolsticeFi is reimagining how investors earn on Solana by introducing a defensively engineered approach to yield, one that directly protects the value of user deposits. According to crypto commentator Madissa’s post on X, one of SolsticeFi’s most compelling features is its ability to allow users to continue earning staking rewards while …

Continuing the comparison between Italy, Greece, and the U.S., the IMF also notes that the national debt of the former two countries will decrease due to strict control over spending and taxes. The U.S. Congressional Budget Office agrees, stating that the country's national debt will not only grow until 2030 but also in the subsequent decades. It is clear that Donald Trump will not be in power in ten years, but the fact remains that there are currently no signs of a budget deficit reduction that could lead to a decrease in U.S. national debt. In America, the Trump administration has achieved significant reductions in spending and increases in revenue through import tariff…

With Donald Trump taking office for a second time, America has claimed to be setting a course to reduce spending, cut the budget deficit, and lower the national debt. In theory, that is. In practice, we are witnessing yet another "shutdown," caused by the ongoing lack of funding for federal agencies and the government. If there were no budget deficit, there would be no shutdown. It is clear that once again, Trump's administration cannot reach an agreement with the Democrats, but this is far from the only sign of unmet goals set by Trump. I want to remind you again that Trump has repeatedly criticized the Biden administration (as well as many other presidents and Democrats…

On Tuesday, bulls for the Japanese yen maintain control. The price failure near the monthly high around 153.25, followed by the subsequent drop, requires caution for bulls in the USD/JPY pair. However, positive oscillators on the daily chart indicate the emergence of buyers at the dip near the round figure of 152.00, from the 151.75 level. A confident breakthrough of the latter would negate the positive outlook, opening the way for deeper losses towards the zone of 151.15–151.00, with intermediate support around 151.50–151.45. On the other hand, the range of 152.83–153.00 now serves as the nearest resistance before the target zone near the monthly high around 153.25–153.3…

The market has a short memory. When the U.S. dollar began to strengthen in mid-September, this was attributed to the escalation of the trade conflict, a reassessment of market views on the fate of the federal funds rate, a split within the Fed, and the political crisis in France. Investors seem to have forgotten that one of the primary reasons for the USD index's 10% decline in the first half of the year was the White House's desire for a weaker dollar. Donald Trump's visit and his team's trip to Asia served as a reminder of this. Scott Bessent, in a meeting with his colleague Satsuki Katayama, emphasized that the Bank of Japan must adhere to a reasonable monetary policy.…

The Cardano (ADA) price is flying under the radar amid growing accumulation by large-holders (“whales”) and a technical formation that traders seldom ignore, a symmetrical triangle. With ADA currently trading around $0.66, after briefly reaching $0.69 earlier in the week, the stage appears set for a breakout, or a breakdown. Analysts suggest that if the bullish scenario prevails, ADA could target $1 and beyond, potentially even reaching $5 or more in a longer-term move. Whale Accumulation Signals Long-Term Confidence Despite short-term price softness, on-chain data reveal that wallets holding large quantities of ADA are steadily increasing their positions. According t…

On Tuesday, gold sales do not weaken for the third consecutive day, as signs of easing trade tensions between the U.S. and China—the two largest economies in the world—continue to undermine demand for traditional safe assets. However, expectations of a possible further reduction in interest rates by the U.S. Federal Reserve continue to exert pressure on the dollar, keeping it at low levels and contributing to a moderate increase in gold, which recently reached more than two-week lows. According to CME Group's FedWatch tool, market participants are fully prepared for the upcoming two-day meeting on Wednesday, where the Fed is expected to lower rates by 25 basis points, an…

October 29 is an important day for the Canadian dollar. The Bank of Canada will hold its next meeting. Most analysts believe the result of the October meeting will be a 25-basis-point interest rate cut due to the slowdown in the Canadian economy. However, some experts do not rule out the possibility that the central bank will adopt a wait-and-see position or implement a "hawkish cut." This scenario is not out of the question, given the inflation growth data published last week in Canada. To remind, the overall consumer price index rose by 0.1% month-on-month in September. Despite pessimistic forecasts, the index emerged from negative territory (down 0.1% in August), re…

Bitcoin is showing early signs of strength as it attempts to reclaim the $115,000 level. After weeks of mixed sentiment and heavy selling pressure, momentum appears to be turning slightly bullish. The recent weekly close above $114,500 has confirmed a reclaim of the Short-Term Holder (STH) Realized Price, a key on-chain threshold currently sitting near $113,000. This metric represents the average cost basis of recent market participants and often serves as a pivotal line separating bullish from bearish sentiment. Top analyst Darkfost shared that this reclaim is an encouraging signal, reflecting renewed buyer confidence after a volatile October. However, he also cautione…

Dogecoin (DOGE) is facing a steep market cooldown after weeks of heightened trading activity in early October. Data from CoinGlass shows that both Open Interest (OI) and trading volume for DOGE futures have crashed, indicating a sharp decline in the meme coin’s momentum. The latest figures reveal a significant pullback in derivatives activity and spot market participation, suggesting that traders may be retreating from speculative positions as volatility eases. Dogecoin Open Interest Crashes Over 60% Dogecoin’s Open Interest has plunged dramatically from its October highs, reflecting a rapid exodus of leveraged traders from the market. According to CoinGlass, total exch…

The XRP price recently saw a sharp drop that was very scary for many traders, and some in the crypto market think the chart looks weak now. However, an analyst on X, Cryptoinsightuk, disagrees. The analyst explains that XRP is not bearish right now, even after the 50% flash crash, and the price can still move higher when liquidity returns. Low Downside Liquidity And Weekly Chart Still Looks Fine For The XRP Price Cryptoinsightuk says that XRP has “no downside liquidity.” The analyst explains that sellers are not strong, so there is very little liquidity sitting below the current price level. It does not mean the XRP price will stay still, although it may move up and down…

Most Read: Alphabet (GOOG) Q3 2025 Earnings Preview: The $100 Billion Milestone and the CapEx Imperative Gold prices saw a sharp decline in early trade today breaching the $3900/oz handle and touching a three-week low. The selloff this week is down to a host of factors but the main one being increasing hopes of a US-China trade deal which has led to a risk-on environment. There is also potential profit taking, a slightly stronger US Dollar and the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting which could all be contributing towards Gold's recent pullback. The precious metal has risen around 1.5% since the European session lows to trade around the $3960/oz handle at the time of writing…

The wave pattern on the 4-hour chart for EUR/USD has changed — and, unfortunately, not for the better. It's still too early to conclude that the upward section of the trend has been canceled, but the recent decline in the euro has made it necessary to adjust the wave markings. We now see a series of three-wave structures (a–b–c), which could be part of a larger global wave 4 within the overall upward trend. In this case, wave 4 has taken on an unnaturally extended form, though the general integrity of the wave pattern remains intact. The upward trend construction continues, while the news background still provides little support for the dollar. The trade war initiated by …

Uniswap (UNI) has been consolidating since the October 10 market crash, with price action stabilizing but volatility still lingering. The decentralized exchange (DEX) token has struggled to regain its previous momentum, reflecting the broader uncertainty across the altcoin market. Analysts remain divided on its short-term outlook — some view Uniswap as a key driver of Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem and a potential leader in the next recovery phase, while others caution that lingering liquidity stress and waning trader activity could spark more turbulence ahead. Despite this cautious backdrop, new on-chain data suggests a shift may be underway. According to CryptoQuant insigh…

A recent debate on the social media platform X has drawn attention to XRP’s long-term price outlook after an XRP enthusiast, Crypto Bitlord, proposed a rather wild scenario where the cryptocurrency teleports to $500 instantly. His post, which imagined XRP being used by the US government to pay off its $35 trillion debt, caused some reactions across the XRP community. In response, well-known crypto analyst ChartNerd stepped in to temper expectations, explaining that while XRP’s future is bright, such a leap to $500 is far from realistic this market cycle. ChartNerd’s Take On Realistic XRP Targets ChartNerd’s comments immediately stood out for their grounded tone, especi…
