Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

IPO Genie Presale Launching Soon.

IPO Genie Presale Launching Soon.

The post IPO Genie Presale Launching Soon. appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Get ready for the IPO Genie presale; your gateway to the $3 trillion private market with $IPO tokens coming soon. The private equity market is worth $3 trillion globally, yet most investors never see these deals. While Bitcoin hovers around $112,000 and retail traders chase meme coins. A new crypto project promises to change everything. IPO Genie ($IPO) is preparing to launch its presale, opening access to private market deal flow that was once limited to Silicon Valley insiders. Market analysts are calling this upcoming presale one of the most significant opportunities in tokenized finance. The timing couldn’t be better for investors seeking the best upcoming crypto token with real utility beyond speculation. Coming Soon: IPO Genie Presale The IPO Genie presale represents a rare opportunity to enter tokenized private markets at ground level. Traditional venture capital requires minimum investments of $1 million or more, plus insider connections. IPO Genie eliminates these barriers by tokenizing access through its regulated hedge fund structure. Investors purchasing $IPO tokens at the lowest presale price gain immediate access to curated startup deals. These aren’t random projects; every opportunity is vetted by former executives from Uber, Coinbase, and Sequoia-backed funds. The platform has already secured partnerships with top-tier hedge funds managing regulated assets. Why This Presale Matters in October 2025 The October 2025 launch coincides with growing institutional adoption of tokenized securities. Security Token Offerings are projected to reach $10 trillion by 2030, making early positioning crucial. Current market conditions favor alternative investments as traditional assets face volatility. IPO Genie addresses a fundamental problem: wealth inequality in startup investing. While crypto markets democratized trading, private equity remained exclusive. This upcoming presale bridges that gap through blockchain transparency and compliance infrastructure. Smart investors recognize that tokenized private markets represent the next major evolution in…

Can money buy Ethereum? On power and protocol politics

Can money buy Ethereum? On power and protocol politics

The post Can money buy Ethereum? On power and protocol politics appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In the past few months, a new class of public companies has raced to amass billions in crypto. The largest, after Michael Saylor’s bitcoin-focused Strategy, is BitMine Immersion (BMNR) chaired by Wall Street strategist Tom Lee, which now holds about 3.75% of ETH’s supply, according to Blockworks Research data.  That begs the question: will digital-asset treasuries (DATs) turn their balance sheets into protocol leverage? In principle, DATs can garner real sway, suggests Ryan Watkins of Syncracy Capital, while skeptics counter that Ethereum’s governance process, client diversity and stubborn validator “social layer” make outright capture unlikely. While the issue quickly enters the speculative realm, one thing that is clear is BitMine is in a privileged position among DATs, according to Watkins, because of its trading volume.  “BitMine’s doing, on average, well over 10x the amount of volume [compared to SBET] every day,” Watkins told Blockworks. “So it can raise money the fastest to buy ETH, and it’s just going to continue to scale.” At this scale, other ETH DATs barely register | Source: Blockworks Research Where a DAT could matter It’s early days and DATs are still focused primarily on how to grow their treasuries. Watkins sketched a plausible arc for a well-financed DAT if the easy capital flywheel slows. “At a certain point, I do think that the mNAV alchemy will stop working as well, and then you’ll start to see BitMine getting more creative and aggressive, like deploying the ETH onchain and starting to be a bigger player in the Ethereum economy,” he said. Influence would accumulate indirectly, most likely affecting application governance first; if a DAT parks a nine-figure balance on Aave or a major liquid staking protocol, its views would carry weight.  “If you’re Aave and Tom Lee is 10–20% of your deposits, you might want his…

S&P Launches Digital Asset Index With Tokenized Access On The Way

S&P Launches Digital Asset Index With Tokenized Access On The Way

The post S&P Launches Digital Asset Index With Tokenized Access On The Way appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News S&P Dow Jones debuts the Digital Markets 50, combining cryptocurrencies and blockchain stocks. Tokenized access via Dinari aims to broaden global investor reach. MAGACOIN FINANCE continues to break record after record, attracting fresh capital as more investors look for early-stage growth while traditional finance opens new doors to crypto exposure. S&P Dow Jones Indices, the group behind the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average, has launched the S&P Digital Markets 50, a new benchmark that blends crypto assets with publicly listed blockchain companies. The idea is simple: give investors one clear view of the digital asset economy across tokens, exchanges, mining firms, infrastructure providers, and tokenization ventures. What the new index tracks The S&P Digital Markets 50 brings together 15 leading cryptocurrencies and 35 crypto-focused stocks inside a single, rules-based framework. By mixing coins and equities, the index shows how the sector is growing beyond pure token prices and into real, revenue-generating businesses. For investors who already use index products in stocks, this approach feels familiar. It also helps reduce the single-asset risk that comes with picking one coin at a time. Built with tokenization in mind S&P created the index with Dinari, a blockchain company that focuses on tokenized securities. Dinari plans to issue a tokenized version of the S&P Digital Markets 50 on its dShares platform by year-end. If delivered on schedule, investors will be able to hold or trade the index directly on-chain, without waiting for a traditional ETF listing in every region. This matters because many funds and high-net-worth investors want index-like exposure to crypto but need cleaner access, better auditing trails, and simple custody. Tokenized access for a global audience Dinari says the tokenized index is designed to work across borders and time zones. Instead of dealing with local market hours, clearing…

Bitcoin Dominance Exhaustion Sparks Altcoin Rally Momentum

Bitcoin Dominance Exhaustion Sparks Altcoin Rally Momentum

The post Bitcoin Dominance Exhaustion Sparks Altcoin Rally Momentum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin dominance is nearing a rejection point, hinting at possible altcoin rotation as capital flows shift. BTC support at $120K–$118K zone stays intact, reinforcing broader market stability. Solana (SOL) eyes $400, Cardano (ADA) targets $2, and Avalanche (AVAX) builds toward $80 as traders anticipate the next altcoin season 2025. Bitcoin dominance exhaustion now signals a shift in market momentum. The BTC.D index has reached a level that, in past cycles, marked the point where Bitcoin’s lead faded and altcoins began to take flow.  Analysts tracking capital movement said a break below this trendline often triggers liquidity rotation into high-beta assets such as Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and Avalanche (AVAX). $BTC.D | Bitcoin Dominance Approaching the 59.5% level I called out on October 4. The fifth wave is unfolding as an ending diagonal, not an impulsive move — signaling exhaustion in BTC.D. The upside move should be nearing completion. Alts should start to outperform. 🤝 https://t.co/2RF0QIfya3 pic.twitter.com/2uc0htJEw6 — Quantum Ascend (@quantum_ascend) October 9, 2025 Altcoin market capitalization excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum has pushed to a fresh monthly high, showing that new money is entering the broader crypto market. While Bitcoin holds firm above $120K, traders see a buildup of strength beneath the surface. Each rally attempt from here could draw more capital toward the assets that move faster once Bitcoin dominance weakens. The structure remains the same: Bitcoin provides stability; altcoins chase expansion. If dominance rejects this resistance as it did in 2021, the market could enter the first true altcoin season of 2025. Bitcoin Finds Support at $120K–$118K Zone On the weekly chart, Bitcoin remains well-supported even after its latest pullback. Strong demand sits between $120,000 and $118,000, creating a solid base for the next upward phase. There are several support layers, and the higher structure remains intact. This means…

Amazon October Prime Day Underwhelms Shoppers, Signaling Caution For Holiday 2025

Amazon October Prime Day Underwhelms Shoppers, Signaling Caution For Holiday 2025

The post Amazon October Prime Day Underwhelms Shoppers, Signaling Caution For Holiday 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Seattle, USA – Feb 10, 2020: Amazon Prime Now Delivery van and driver downtown on 4th avenue late in the day. getty Wearied by inflation and growing economic uncertainty, shoppers used Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, running October 7 and 8, to stock up on practical everyday essentials, having waited to make purchases until they went on sale. This, according to a tracking survey among over 5,000+ Prime Big Deal Days shoppers conducted by Numerator. “With half of consumers saying tariffs are affecting what they buy and how they shop during the event, they’re focusing their purchases on everyday essentials such as apparel, shoes, household items, and home goods,” shared Numerator analyst Shawn Paustian. After Amazon reported its July four-day Prime Day 2025 sales event was the company’s biggest ever – aggregated online spending totaled more than two Black Fridays during those four days, Adobe Analytics reported – it’s hoping to pull out another win for the follow-up October two-day sales event. However, early indicators are that its October Prime Big Deal Days’ performance was more ho-hum than the jolly ho-ho-ho hoped for. Comparing October And July Prime Days The top reasons for shopping Prime Big Deal Days were to purchase something they’ve been waiting to go on sale (45%), followed by purchasing everyday essentials (28%) and stocking up on sale items (25%). This tracks closely to the reasons they shopped July Prime Day, according to Numerator, which surveyed 5,000 Prime Day shoppers during and after the event. However, while 90% of shoppers were aware of Prime Big Deal Days ahead of time, it’s surprising that only 61% of July Prime Day shoppers returned to snag additional deals this October, though 19% said they couldn’t recall. In July, 88% of shoppers had participated in previous Prime Day events. After a…

Dow Jones retreats to one-week low amid prolonged government shutdown

Dow Jones retreats to one-week low amid prolonged government shutdown

The post Dow Jones retreats to one-week low amid prolonged government shutdown appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) knocked sharply lower on Thursday following a week-long meandering period. The Dow tumbled into the 46,300 region after opening the American market session near 46,600, knocking the major equity index down around 300 points at the time of writing. The US government’s ongoing shutdown has officially extended past the one-week mark, reaching its ninth day on Thursday. Investors initially showed little to no reaction to the shuttering of federal services, but market apprehension is slowly on the rise as the US Senate shows no signs of progress. Senate Republicans have rejected multiple budget bridging proposals from Democrats, as the two sides of the US government vote down party lines. US government tearing itself apart over healthcare The key hangup between the two sides is national healthcare provisions that are set to expire, which will remove millions of Americans from already-existing care programs. Democrats want a patchwork extension while the Trump administration works on its proposal to replace ‘Obamacare’, the moniker given to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), crafted and established under President Barack Obama. The Trump team has been promising a total revamping of the ACA since Donald Trump first hit the campaign trail during his first term. Fast forward to today, any semblance of an ACA replacement has yet to see daylight, but Republicans refuse to include any kind of extension to ACA coverage in the current federal budget, stating that they will only discuss it after the budget has been passed. The government shutdown has also clamped down on the release of official datasets, leaving markets to grapple with newly added emphasis on private datasets. This week’s key release will be the University of Michigan’s (UoM) Consumer Sentiment Index for October, slated for Friday. Aggregated consumer survey results are expected to ease…
