XRP’s large holder cohort, specifically addresses holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP, has shifted from accumulation in the second half of August to significant dumping at the start of September. On-chain data from analytics platform Santiment reveals a sharp reversal in holdings, both in terms of circulating supply percentage and the number of coins held by this cohort. This change raises concerns about the sustainability of XRP’s price, which has been facing rejections above $2.8, and whether September could be a bearish month for the token. XRP Millionaires Start September With A Selloff XRP millionaire wallets, which are addresses holding between 10 mill…

Vale (NYSE: VALE) has officially reopened the Capanema iron ore mine in Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, after a 22-year halt, as part of an investment strategy worth R$ 67 billion ($12.2 billion) through 2030. The reactivated Capanema unit, which received about R$ 5.2 billion ($950 million) in investments, will operate without using water in processing, generating no tailings and removing the need for dams. The shift toward dry processing has been a central goal for Vale following the deadly collapses of two tailings dams in Minas Gerais in 2015 and 2019, disasters that killed hundreds of people and caused widespread environmental devastation. The majority of Vale’s…

US President Donald Trump’s war against the Federal Reserve may send gold prices to as high as $5,000 an ounce by driving down investor confidence in the dollar, says Goldman Sachs Group. In a note published Thursday, the bank’s analysts warned that Trump’s attempt to interfere with the US central bank could further erode trust in dollar-denominated assets, thereby adding to gold’s safe-haven appeal. The note, first seen by Financial Times, comes just a day after gold rallied to a new all-time high above $3,560 an ounce. Bullion has now risen by 35% so far this year, as investors and central banks piled into the metal as a hedge against political uncertainty and U…

The British pound has edged lower on Thursday. In the North American session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.3177, down 0.19% on the day. The pound has been busy and moved higher on Wednesday, with gains of 0.42%. This followed massive losses of 1.1% a day earlier, after UK gilts surged to a 27-year high. Bank of England Governor Bailey testified before the Treasury Committee hearings on Wednesday. Bailey said that he expected interest rates would continue to move "downwards gradually over time" but that there was "considerably more doubt" as to when the BoE would lower rates. Members of the BoE's Monetary Policy Committee are split over monetary policy. MPC member Alan Ta…

The Swiss franc has edged lower on Thursday. In the North American session, USD/CHF is trading at 0.8052, down 0.13% on the day. Swiss CPI declines in August Swiss inflation declined in August for the first time since January. CPI slipped 0.1%, following the July reading of zero and the market estimate of zero. Yearly, CPI rose 0.2%, unchanged from July and in line with the market estimate. The soft inflation report could support the case for the Swiss National Bank to return to negative interest rates. The SNB had a negative rate policy in effect for eight consecutive years until 2022, when high inflation forced the bank to sharply tighten policy. The markets widely e…

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong announced on Wednesday that he aims to have 50% of the cryptocurrency exchange’s daily code generated using artificial intelligence by October 2025, stating that the platform is already operating at 40% AI coding. The Coinbase stock, COIN, is down 0.5% today, according to Yahoo Finance, potentially signaling a poor reception by investors regarding Armstrong’s comments yesterday. The concept of “vibe coding” has gained popularity this year, thanks in part to computer scientist Andrej Karpathy, who is the former senior AI director at Tesla and the founder of Eureka Labs. In his explanation, vibe coding refers to relinquishing active overs…

Cardano’s mood music has flipped. Even as ADA has rebounded about five percent from its late-August lows, on-chain analytics firm Santiment says the asset’s typically optimistic retail crowd has swung to its most negative stance in five months. In an X post accompanying its sentiment chart, the firm wrote: “Cardano has quietly seen its normally optimistic crowd start to turn bearish. After the lowest sentiment recorded in 5 months, $ADA’s price is +5%. Patient holders and dip buyers during this three week downswing should root for this trend of bearish retailers to continue.” Santiment framed that shift in classic contrarian terms. “Prices typically move the opposite di…

Gem Diamonds (LON: GEMD) is buckling under the weight of a worsening diamond market, reporting on Thursday an attributable loss of $11.7 million for the six months ended June 30. The Africa-focused miner took a $10.7 million goodwill impairment as rough diamond prices continue to fall, supply outpaces demand, and lab-grown stones gain ground. The results mark a sharp reversal from the $2.1 million profit posted in the same period of 2024. At its flagship Letšeng mine in Lesotho, Gem Diamonds assessed the recoverable amount of the operation and recorded the impairment to bring the carrying value in line with the market reality. “The industry continues to face s…

Bitcoin is entering a fragile stage after days of selling pressure and uncertainty pushed the price into consolidation around the $110,000 level. Bulls are working to defend this key area, but momentum has clearly faded. The market now finds itself in a holding pattern, with investors cautious about whether Bitcoin will stabilize or break lower in the sessions ahead. Despite the weakness, there are no clear signals yet of a deeper correction. Historically, retracements within ongoing bull markets often serve as resets rather than trend reversals, but the pressure on Bitcoin has nonetheless sparked debate about its short-term direction. Holding above current levels is be…

Overview: The US dollar is firm against the G10 currencies today but is mostly trading inside yesterday's ranges. After yesterday's disappointing JOLTS report attention turns to the ADP estimate today, ahead of tomorrow's BLS report. The lack of follow-through selling after yesterday's losses may be encouraging some short-term momentum traders to move to the sidelines. The greenback is also mostly higher against emerging market currencies, though a few Asia Pacific currencies bucking the move, including a small gain for the Chinese yuan. The pullback in yields seen yesterday is continuing today. Steady demand at Japan's 30-year bond auction helped JGBs rally. European be…

Bitcoin is clinging to $110,000 amid the boring crypto market, while Ethereum Layer-2 like Arbitrum is making news today. The total crypto market cap sits at $3.9 trillion, but the 24-hour volume is recorded at a huge $124 billion. People are now waiting for September, as August is historically bad for crypto. ARB ▼-0.86% updates is stealing the news headline today as an ex-Ripple engineer thinks that its dual-speed transactions can reshape crypto Layer-2 market dynamics. Layer-2 comes with cheaper fees and lightning fast transaction speed which pull more liquidity into it.

BTC USD and the wider markets are bracing for a busy Thursday of economic releases. August ADP Nonfarm Employment, Initial Jobless Claims, the ISM Services PMI, and the S&P Global Services PMI are all due. These reports will shape expectations for whether the Federal Reserve moves forward with a September rate cut. The anticipation follows weaker labor market signals and a stunted crypto market and BTC ▼-0.37%. The JOLTS report showed job openings fell to 7.18M in July, missing forecasts of 7.38M and marking the lowest reading since 2021. “The jobs number showed that we are seeing more of a slowdown in the labour market in the US,” said Shaun Osborne, chief currency…

Is Trump getting rid of the income tax? President Donald Trump says tariffs could eliminate income taxes for most Americans. Economists disagree, but Trump is adamant that his tariff policy could wipe out income taxes for most households. “When tariffs cut in, many people’s income taxes will be substantially reduced, maybe even completely eliminated,” Trump said Wednesday. Trump says his policy would focus on Americans and investors making less than $200,000. Census Bureau data shows only 14.4% of U.S. households earned above $200,000 in 2023. If Trump’s proposal were true, most Americans would no longer pay federal income taxes. Is Trump Getting Rid of the Income …

Matthew Mežinskis, the analyst behind Porkopolis Economics and co-host of the “crypto_voices” podcast, told Marty Bent on TFTC that Bitcoin’s late-cycle upside remains larger than most models imply, arguing that price action continues to track a long-standing “power trend” that has governed every prior boom. Anchoring his view in percentile “bands” around that trend, he contends the market can still deliver a two-to-three-times move into year-end, placing a $250,000 to $375,000 range in play. Bitcoin 4-Year Cycle Still In Play? Mežinskis frames the thesis in stark, testable terms. “Bitcoin has traditionally during the booms very easily gotten above the 80th percentile ea…
