Bitcoin analyst PlanC argues that forecasts of a Q4 price peak are driven more by psychological bias than by proper statistical analysis, making time-based predictions unreliable.

He recommends focusing on fundamentals and data-driven methods—incorporating volatility, trading volume and investor sentiment—rather than relying on simple historical timing.

PlanC also warns that collective expectations can produce self-fulfilling moves, but stresses the importance of rigorous analysis over following crowd predictions.

Bitcoin held up after a major US nonfarm payrolls miss, which added 210,000 jobs versus the 303,000 forecast, and erased a $113,400 intraday surge.

The weak jobs print has increased expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut, but the cryptocurrency has failed to attract fresh buying, leaving bulls largely on the sidelines.

Heightened volatility and mixed investor sentiment are keeping traders cautious as markets digest macro signals and possible policy changes.

Technically, Bitcoin lacks clear direction—market participants are watching for a decisive breakout above resistance or a breakdown that could signal the next trend.

TRON founder and BitTorrent CEO Justin Sun publicly urged WLFI to unlock his frozen pre-sale allocation after it was unexpectedly restricted, calling the move "unreasonable" and urging a prompt resolution.

WLFI, a DeFi platform linked to the Trump family that offers token trading, lending and borrowing, now faces scrutiny over its handling of token freezes and its commitment to fairness.

The incident has ignited debate in the crypto community about investor protection, platform transparency and the reputational risks WLFI faces if it does not address these concerns.

Real-World Assets (RWAs) tokenize physical assets—like real estate, infrastructure, and commodities—onchain, turning illiquid ESG opportunities into accessible digital investments.

By providing an institutional "trust" layer with transparency, immutability, and security, RWAs help address greenwashing and reporting challenges, giving investors greater confidence in tokenized ESG projects.

Scaled adoption of RWAs could unlock billions for climate and sustainable finance, bridging traditional capital markets and blockchain to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Cryptocurrency exchange BitMart has withdrawn its application for a virtual asset service provider (VASP) license in Hong Kong, halting its bid for formal regulatory approval in the territory.

The company did not give detailed reasons, but industry observers point to growing regulatory scrutiny and uncertainty in Hong Kong as likely factors behind the decision.

BitMart said it remains committed to compliance and providing a secure platform, while continuing to pursue business and licensing opportunities in other jurisdictions with clearer regulatory frameworks.

The move highlights the broader challenges exchanges face navigating evolving crypto rules and increased oversight from global regulators.

BlackRock reversed a four-day outflow streak with a $287 million inflow into spot Ether ETFs, marking a major move in the crypto investment space.

Spot Ether ETFs now hold about 6.42 million ETH, valued at roughly $27.66 billion, equal to about 5.31% of Ether's circulating supply.

The surge highlights growing institutional interest in Ether as investors seek diversification amid market volatility and signals potential further inflows and mainstream adoption.

Commerce official Howard Lutnick has been buying shares in firms expected to benefit from the Trump administration's tariffs while also allocating part of his portfolio to Bitcoin during recent market turbulence.

Bitcoin slid toward the $112,000 level as investors braced for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole, with markets seeking clues on the timing of interest rate cuts.

The drop highlights short-term volatility and nervous sentiment, with traders watching key technical support levels that could determine whether the decline continues or a rebound occurs.

Federal Reserve policy signals and regulatory developments remain primary drivers of price action, causing many investors to adopt a cautious, wait-and-see approach.

Despite near-term uncertainty, some market participants remain focused on Bitcoin’s long-term potential while emphasizing diversification and risk management.

Cardano (ADA) is trading above the key $1 level, and analysts say a decisive breakout could trigger a rapid move toward $2 or higher. The upcoming Alonzo upgrade, which enables smart contracts, is a central catalyst expected to draw users and developers to the network.

Cardano’s emphasis on scalability, sustainability, and interoperability — along with growing institutional interest and a strong community — has strengthened bullish sentiment, especially as Bitcoin and Ethereum regain momentum.

Despite the optimism, price gains depend on sustained momentum above $1 and remain exposed to risks like regulatory changes, market volatility, and technical setbacks. Traders will be watching closely to see if ADA can maintain its breakout.
