Trump Media Plans $6.42 Billion CRO Token Push, But There’s A Caveat

Trump Media Plans $6.42 Billion CRO Token Push, But There’s A Caveat

The post Trump Media Plans $6.42 Billion CRO Token Push, But There’s A Caveat appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Reports indicated that Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the company behind Truth Social, is reportedly moving forward with a strategy to acquire $6.42 billion worth of CRO digital tokens. However, new revelations provided more clarity, suggesting that not all is as it seems. Details on Trump Media and CRO Deal: All You Need To Know Fresh reports suggest that the group is not immediately purchasing $6.42 billion worth of CRO tokens. Instead, the company will begin with approximately $200 million in cash and a token position equal to about 19% of CRO’s market cap, obtained at nearly a 50% discount through prior deals. The filing notes that additional purchases will depend on available credit lines and warrants, making the scale of future acquisitions contingent on financing capacity rather than a guaranteed multi-billion-dollar outlay. This adjustment significantly reframes market expectations, shifting the narrative from an upfront $6.42 billion mega-purchase to a phased, conditional strategy.

5% Bounce on Spot LINK ETF Filing by Bitwise

5% Bounce on Spot LINK ETF Filing by Bitwise

The post 5% Bounce on Spot LINK ETF Filing by Bitwise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Digital asset manager Bitwise is preparing to launch a spot-based exchange traded fund (ETF) focused on holding the native token of Chainlink LINK$24.04, a first in the U.S. According to the S-1 registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, the Bitwise Chainlink ETF aims to provide investors with direct exposure to LINK and named Coinbase Custody as the proposed custodian for the tokens. The filing fits into a broader trend of asset managers seeking to launch altcoin-focused spot ETFs in the U.S. as regulatory headwinds receded under the Trump administration, following the success of bitcoin BTC$109,829.54 and ether (ETH) vehicles. LINK bounced 5% from the overnight lows on the news, but was still down 1.6% over the past 24 hours, per CoinDesk data. Despite the rebound, CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model suggested sustained bearish pressure for LINK as the crypto market is going through a consolidation period. LINK encountered substantial downward pressure over the past 24 hours, falling from a session peak of $24.81 to a low of $22.90. A notable recovery effort surfaced during 10:00-11:00 UTC, coinciding with the ETF filing, as the price rallied from $23.02 to $23.54 on heightened volume of 3.35 million units, indicating possible consolidation above the crucial $23.00 psychological threshold. The model suggested that reclaiming the $24.00 level is key to halting the bearish momentum, while the recent rebound implies oversold conditions may be attracting value-seeking investors. Technical indicators point to downward momentum Price declined 4.67% from $24.61 to $23.46 during the last 24-hours from Aug. 25 12:00 to Aug. 26 11:00 UTC. Trading range of $1.84 between a maximum of $24.81 and a minimum of $22.90. Volume surged to 6.58 million units, significantly above 24-hour average of 2.29 million. Strong resistance established around $24.30 with support near $23.00.…

How BlackRock and Goldman Sachs are bringing Wall Street’s hottest asset class to 401(k)s

How BlackRock and Goldman Sachs are bringing Wall Street’s hottest asset class to 401(k)s

The post How BlackRock and Goldman Sachs are bringing Wall Street’s hottest asset class to 401(k)s appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wall Street’s largest firms are championing a new cause. They are bringing alternative assets — once reserved for the ultra-wealthy — to the portfolios of individual investors. Chief among the proponents are BlackRock and Goldman Sachs. But, as is usually the case in investing, the potential of greater returns comes at a risk. “The alternative market is becoming less alternative,” said Jon Diorio, head of alternatives for wealth at asset management giant BlackRock. Alternatives are assets outside of stocks, bonds, and cash — including private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, cryptocurrencies, and more. “It’s growing very rapidly as public markets are shrinking,” Diorio told CNBC in a recent interview. Interest has been fueled by shrinking public market opportunities and a softening regulatory environment. President Donald Trump signed an executive order earlier this month that paved the way for alternative assets in 401(k) retirement accounts — an idea vehemently opposed by the Biden administration. Diorio, who also leads product strategy for BlackRock’s U.S. wealth advisory business, said that giving more investors exposure to alternatives — which have traditionally been part of the portfolios of ultra high net-worth individuals, hedge funds, and pension funds — can improve returns over the long run. “In some cases, you can get enhanced diversification [and] amplify return streams,” he added. Giving individual investors the same access to different asset classes as the pros has been championed as further democratizing Wall Street. However, it also comes with its own risks. These assets are not publicly traded, which means they are more difficult to value and less liquid. BlackRock’s Diorio and peers at other major financial firms are acutely aware of this and strive to make sure investors are, too, as they challenge the decades-old focus on the traditional retail portfolio split of 60% stocks and 40%…

Bitwise Files for First U.S. Spot Chainlink ETF

Bitwise Files for First U.S. Spot Chainlink ETF

The post Bitwise Files for First U.S. Spot Chainlink ETF appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Quick Highlights Bitwise filed with the SEC for the first U.S. spot Chainlink ETF The ETF will invest directly in LINK and use Coinbase Custody Chainlink jumped 2.3% after the ETF filing announcement Bitwise Files for First U.S. Spot Chainlink ETF Bitwise has submitted a proposal to the U.S. SEC to launch a Chainlink (LINK) spot ETF — marking the first such product in the U.S. market. The move signals growing institutional interest in Chainlink and altcoins more broadly, just as regulators begin to warm up to more crypto-based financial products. According to the filing, the Bitwise Chainlink ETF will invest directly in LINK, giving investors exposure to the token without the need to hold it themselves. This structure classifies it as a spot ETF, meaning it tracks the actual price of Chainlink, not futures or derivatives. How the ETF Will Work The fund’s custodian will be Coinbase Custody Trust Company, while the exchange (still undisclosed) will act as the primary agent. Shares in the fund will be issued and redeemed in cash, mirroring the process used by other spot ETFs. Although the filing does not include details on staking, the SEC has previously clarified that staking does not necessarily violate securities regulations. This leaves the door open for possible future updates. Notably, the exchange name and product ticker have not been revealed, but that hasn’t stopped investor speculation from heating up. LINK Price Reacts to the News Following the announcement, Chainlink’s price rose 4.02% on the daily chart. Source: TradingView While modest, the price action reflects optimism around increased institutional access to Chainlink through regulated investment products. If approved, this ETF could mark a major milestone in the asset’s evolution. Meanwhile, in Europe, the 21Shares Chainlink ETP, currently the largest LINK-based fund, has $49.5 million in assets under management.…

SharpLink’s $252M ETH buy pushes Treasury towards 800,000 tokens

SharpLink’s $252M ETH buy pushes Treasury towards 800,000 tokens

Gaming turned Ethereum treasury company SharpLink Gaming has added over $252 million worth of ETH over the past week, and simultaneously raised roughly $360.9 million through its at-the-market equity program.SharpLink has quickly become one of the biggest names among publicly traded treasury companies, and currently sits as the third largest in the market.According to the latest information disclosed via a Tuesday update, that stash is worth a whopping $3.7 billion.On top of this, the company is holding an additional $200 million in cash that has been earmarked for more ether purchases, which would contribute towards the company’s goal of “building long-term value” for its stakeholders and also “support the broader Ethereum ecosystem,” according to Co-CEO Joseph Chalom.SharpLink keeps buying ETH near all-time highsBased on the company’s actions since its pivot as an ETH treasury firm back in May this year, it is evident that ShapLink is betting big on the second-largest cryptocurrency.Ethereum had been steadily climbing since SharpLink first started acquiring the token, and hit an all-time high of $4,946 late last week. However, the company hasn’t waited for dips and has consistently expanded its treasury via several periodic purchases.Last week, the company picked up ETH at an average price of $4,462, adding 56,533 new tokens to its vault.This approach has paid off handsomely so far. From staking alone, SharpLink has generated 1,799 ETH in rewards, a passive stream of yield that continues to grow with each fresh allocation.Since unveiling its Ethereum strategy, the Minneapolis-based firm has gone from a niche player in the sports gaming space to a heavyweight in crypto corporate treasuries. In just over two months, its ETH stack has ballooned from 438,000 to nearly 800,000 tokens. That’s not just aggressive, it’s one of the fastest accumulation sprees in public market history, rivaling even the early days of MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin pivot.Ethereum Treasury market heats upZooming out, SharpLink’s rise marks a notable shift in the Ethereum treasury landscape. Once dominated by private funds and foundations, the market now sees a corporate arms race playing out in real time. BitMine Immersion Technologies still holds the top spot with 1.72 million ETH, but SharpLink is closing in quickly. If the pace continues, the gap could narrow further before the year’s end.Then there’s Strategy, Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin-first juggernaut. While its treasury still revolves around BTC, the rise of ETH-focused treasuries like SharpLink and BitMine signals institutions are taking notice of the entire industry.The momentum has also strengthened inflows into Spot Ethereum ETFs, which have seen billions in inflows over recent weeks. That backdrop lends credibility to corporate strategies like SharpLink’s, positioning ETH not only as a growth asset but as a yield-generating store of value, something even Bitcoin doesn’t currently offer.The post SharpLink’s $252M ETH buy pushes Treasury towards 800,000 tokens appeared first on Invezz
