Bitcoin, Solana And MAGACOIN FINANCE Named September Standouts

Bitcoin, Solana And MAGACOIN FINANCE Named September Standouts

The post Bitcoin, Solana And MAGACOIN FINANCE Named September Standouts appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. September has opened with analysts reshuffling their watchlists as crypto markets transition into a new phase. Three names — Bitcoin, Solana, and MAGACOIN FINANCE — are consistently highlighted as defining this moment.  Each carries a distinct narrative: Bitcoin as the anchor asset in a volatile market, Solana as the fast-scaling challenger attracting institutional capital, and MAGACOIN FINANCE as the speculative presale drawing the boldest upside forecasts. Bitcoin — Accumulation Zone and Market Anchor Bitcoin continues to act as the market’s anchor, holding near historic highs despite a modest 2% dip at the start of September.  For many analysts, this pullback represents a classic accumulation window rather than a sign of deeper retracement. Institutional inflows remain consistent, with spot ETF allocations and corporate treasuries providing a reliable base of demand. The asset’s resilience in the face of short-term volatility reinforces its role as the ultimate store of value. While newer tokens may promise higher multiples, Bitcoin is viewed as the safest bet for long-term positioning.  Analysts suggest September’s corrective moves may prove attractive for investors seeking exposure before year-end momentum builds again. Solana — Scalability, Upgrades, and Institutional Momentum Solana remains at the center of analyst discussions, supported by strong fundamentals and growing institutional presence.  The recent Alpenglow upgrade has enhanced speed and efficiency, and developers continue to expand Solana’s DeFi and gaming ecosystems. The chain has already generated more than $1.3 billion in revenue, further cementing its position as a top-performing Layer-1. Price forecasts for Solana range widely, with targets between $250 and $420 by Q4 depending on how ETF applications progress and institutional demand scales.  With its ability to process millions of daily transactions at low cost, Solana is being positioned as the premier alternative to Ethereum. September’s analyst reports highlight it as a core allocation for those seeking…

‘Crypto going mainstream’ – Why SEC & CFTC’s statement sparked hype

‘Crypto going mainstream’ – Why SEC & CFTC’s statement sparked hype

The post ‘Crypto going mainstream’ – Why SEC & CFTC’s statement sparked hype appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways The joint guidance by the SEC and CFTC will expand spot crypto trading across traditional exchanges and brokerages. In a historic move, the U.S. regulators SEC and CFTC issued a joint statement noting that current laws don’t prevent exchanges from listing certain spot crypto trading.  Source: X Part of the guidance read,  “The Divisions’ coordination will promote trading venue choice and optionality for market participants within the United States.” Regulators, referencing the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets Markets (PWG) report, announced their readiness to assist securities exchanges in adding certain crypto assets to their trading platforms. “In line with these goals, the Divisions stand ready to support consideration by their respective agencies of exchange trading in certain spot crypto asset products.” Is spot crypto trading going mainstream? For crypto leaders and analysts, the joint guidance will make crypto mainstream.  According to ETF analyst Nate Geraci, the regulators’ greenlight meant that crypto trading will soon be available in top global exchanges and traditional brokerages afterward.  “Main takeaway? Crypto trading going mainstream. Will be on world’s largest venues. Think NYSE, Nasdaq, etc. Next stop after that? Every major traditional brokerage.” A similar stance was echoed by Matthew Sigel, Head of digital assets research at VanEck, noting that Bitcoin [BTC], Ethereum [ETH], and others will be traded in traditional exchanges.  Source: X For Sei’s [SEI] General Counsel, Gerald Gallagher, the update signaled an end to the ‘turf wars’ between the two regulators. “The turf wars are ending. The SEC & CFTC are rowing in the same direction. The U.S. just validated the importance of building high-performance crypto trading infrastructure.” According to CFTC Acting Chairman Caroline Pham, the move will empower users to trade cryptocurrencies freely, wherever and however they choose, through secure, registered exchanges. In addition, as part of implementing…

US Bancorp resumes bitcoin custody with ETF support

US Bancorp resumes bitcoin custody with ETF support

The post US Bancorp resumes bitcoin custody with ETF support appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US Bancorp has resumed bitcoin custody services for institutional clients, reopening a product it first launched in 2021 but suspended in late 2022 during heightened regulatory scrutiny. The move, originally reported by Bloomberg, follows new clarity from federal regulators on how banks can serve as qualified custodians for digital assets. The Minneapolis-based lender, the fifth-largest commercial bank in the United States, will now also provide custody for spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved last year after years of industry pressure. Data from Blockworks Research shows cumulative inflows into crypto ETFs remain dominated by bitcoin products, which account for nearly 70% of total flows. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) leads with $58.4 billion in assets and $72.9 million in recent net inflows, while Fidelity, Ark, and others also saw strong demand. Bancorp’s expansion to ETF custody reflects institutional demand for secure handling of bitcoin funds managed by firms like BlackRock and Fidelity, which have drawn billions of dollars in inflows since approval. The decision highlights a policy recalibration among regulators, including the SEC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), after years of tension over crypto banking. With the SEC’s rescission of Staff Accounting Bulletin 121 (via SAB 122), banks are no longer required to carry custodial crypto assets on their balance sheets, easing capital burdens. Custody services allow banks to securely store cryptographic keys for clients, a critical function for asset managers who must comply with fiduciary standards. US Bancorp’s reentry brings it in line with peers such as BNY Mellon and State Street, both of which also offer regulated digital asset custody. This is a developing story.

Bitcoin News: Gold Rallies 32% Threatening BTC’s ‘Digital Gold’ Status

Bitcoin News: Gold Rallies 32% Threatening BTC’s ‘Digital Gold’ Status

The post Bitcoin News: Gold Rallies 32% Threatening BTC’s ‘Digital Gold’ Status appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: Gold +32% YTD vs BTC +16% — 2× performance. Gold $3,500/oz — ~100× since 1971. Gold has outperformed BTC over multi-year spans. Puts pressure on the “digital gold” narrative. Bitcoin news —Gold has been the standout asset in 2025, rallying about +32% year-to-date while Bitcoin is up roughly +16%. One ounce of gold just hit all-time highs near $3,500 – a price level that represents a 100× increase since 1971, when the dollar left the gold standard. By contrast, Bitcoin has trended more modestly. It briefly topped $124,000 earlier in the year but is only about 16% higher than its January 2025 price. Bitcoin news —Gold’s Surge Doubles Bitcoin’s 2025 Gains Gold’s surge has multiple drivers. Mounting inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainty have pushed investors into safe havens. Analysts note that expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts are now priced into markets, lifting gold demand. Economic Times reports that central banks have been aggressively adding bullion: on average purchasing over 1,000 metric tons per year recently. This trend reflects reserve managers diversifying away from the dollar. Spot gold briefly hit $3,508.50/oz on Sep. 2, 2025. Gold ETFs saw record inflows as well – for example, the SPDR Gold Trust’s holdings climbed to 977.68 tons, the highest since 2022. By many measures, gold remains low-volatility relative to equities. It trades with only 14% correlation to the S&P 500, compared to Bitcoin’s 60%. In other words, gold is acting more like a traditional hedge again threatening the digital gold narrative. Over multi-year spans, gold has outperformed Bitcoin too. Since the November 2021 highs, gold is up 85% versus Bitcoin’s 61%. An  analysis by analyst Bob Elliott underscores this: gold has delivered similar returns to Bitcoin since early 2021 but with one-quarter the volatility and much smaller drawdowns. Bitcoin Underperforms Under…

Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded $332.7 million in net inflows on Tuesday, outpacing their Ethereum counterparts, which saw $135.3 million in net outflows, according to data from SoSoValue.

The reversal came after a strong August for Ethereum funds, which saw $3.87 billion in inflows compared with Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs’ $751 million outflows. Ether funds see outflows. Source: SoSoValue Related: How high can Bitcoin price go as gold hits record high above $3.5K? Bitcoin’s “digital gold” narrative regains momentum The renewed surge in spot Bitcoin ETFs comes as Bitcoin’s “digital gold” narrative is making a comeback. “Bitcoin is once again attracting institutional flows as its digital gold narrative regains traction,” Vincent Liu, the chief investment officer at Kronos Research, told Cointelegraph. “With gold at all-time highs, appetite for hard assets is clearly strengthening. In this environment of macro uncertainty, BTC is standing out against ETH, which appears to be entering a period of profit-taking,” he added. Liu said this trend could continue as long as global markets remain shaky, with investors favoring Bitcoin for its perceived stability and safe-haven appeal. Related: Uptick in Bitcoin spot trading hints at possible breakout to $119K Crypto funds rebound with $2.48 billion in weekly inflows As reported, crypto investment products rebounded last week, pulling in $2.48 billion in net inflows after the previous week’s $1.4 billion outflow.

Crypto Startup Utila Raises $22M as Stablecoin Infrastructure Demand Surges

Crypto Startup Utila Raises $22M as Stablecoin Infrastructure Demand Surges

The post Crypto Startup Utila Raises $22M as Stablecoin Infrastructure Demand Surges appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto infrastructure provider Utila raised $22 million in its latest fundraising round nearly tripling its valuation in the last six six months, the firm told CoinDesk. The round was led by Red Dot Capital Partners with Nyca, Wing VC, DCG and Cerca Partners among investors also participating, extending the March Series A funding round to $40 million. Founded in New York and Tel Aviv, Utila provides a digital asset operations platform tailored for enterprises working with stablecoins. The system handles payments, treasury and trading functions, while offering compliance and continuity features for businesses. The firm’s customers include payment providers, neobanks and asset managers, reflecting the growing use of dollar-pegged tokens in global finance. Stablecoins garnered attention this year from outside of crypto circles as the killer application of blockchain technology. The sector, currently a $270 billion market, have the potential to disrupt cross-border payments as a faster, cheaper alternative to traditional financial rails, proponents say. Major banks and global retailers like Walmart, Amazon are reportedly exploring using stablecoins. Payments firm Stripe acquiring stablecoin startup Bridge and USDC stablecoin issuer Circle’s IPO were the “bitcoin ETF moments” for stablecoin adoption, Bentzi Rabi, co-founder and CEO of Utila said in an interview with CoinDesk. Utila did not actively seek new funding, but received inbound offers as stablecoin demand spiked, Rabi said. Since March, the firm has doubled its customer base and now processes over $15 billion in monthly transactions. With most of its original Series A capital still unused, Utila opted to extend the round to accelerate its expansion into fast-growing markets such as Latin America, Africa and Asia-Pacific, where stablecoins are increasingly central to financial infrastructure.
