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.

Bitcoin Advances While Washington Gridlock and Soft Labor Numbers Stir Anxiety

Bitcoin Advances While Washington Gridlock and Soft Labor Numbers Stir Anxiety

The post Bitcoin Advances While Washington Gridlock and Soft Labor Numbers Stir Anxiety appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Bitcoin jumps on shutdown jitters and weak jobs data as attention shifts to BullZilla’s fast-moving presale. Simple metrics. Clear risks. Actionable context.   Markets moved fast on October 1, 2025. The United States government shut down. A soft private payrolls backdrop amplified the shock. Bitcoin climbed as investors weighed rate cuts and safe-haven flows. Gold hit records. Bitcoin reacted fast. Price spiked as traders bet on fresh rate cuts. Gold set a record. Stocks wobbled. The setup revived the “Uptober” script and pushed digital assets back into focus. Reports tied the move to falling ADP payrolls, rising odds of near-term cuts, and a risk-on wave that often follows soft data. Now the attention turns to altcoins. One name in presale, Bull Zilla, is drawing outsized interest. It sits in the slipstream of Bitcoin momentum yet runs a separate playbook. It mixes progressive pricing, live on-chain burns, staking, and referrals. The project markets itself as an Ethereum memecoin with a multi-chapter presale. Community growth and staged supply cuts aim to build scarcity as price steps up across the chapters. Bitcoin Today, The Macro Break, And Why It Matters For Altcoins Bitcoin rallied as shutdown headlines landed. Futures implied a higher chance of near-term cuts. Equities slipped. The dollar softened. Gold set new highs. In past cycles, similar mixes favored Bitcoin over risk assets with weaker liquidity. That dynamic can lift altcoins later if flows broaden out. In this tape, whales have been active as well, adding to both Bitcoin and Ethereum positions into weakness. That behavior can form a base for a wider crypto bid if macro data keeps easing. The labor link has been tight. ADP’s weak print helped drive a September slide below $110,000. A day later, a softer Bureau of Labor Statistics read shook the tape…

These 10 States Could See Aurora Borealis Thursday Night

These 10 States Could See Aurora Borealis Thursday Night

The post These 10 States Could See Aurora Borealis Thursday Night appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline Nearly a dozen states in the northern U.S. could have a chance to observe the northern lights on Thursday, as some geomagnetic storms are expected to bring the phenomenon farther south, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Some geomagnetic storms are expected to persist into early Friday morning. Lehtikuva/AFP via Getty Images Key Facts NOAA forecast a Kp index of four on a scale of nine for Thursday night, suggesting the northern lights could be seen as far south as Minnesota’s border with Iowa. Thursday night’s auroral forecast follows a period of geomagnetic storms late Wednesday and early Thursday morning, increasing the forecast’s kp index to nearly seven amid the effects of high-speed winds from a cooler, less dense spot on the sun’s surface. Minor geomagnetic storming is likely to persist into early Friday morning, and similar auroral activity is expected Friday night, according to NOAA’s three-day outlook. Where Will The Northern Lights Be Visible? A higher chance of viewing the northern lights is forecast across northern Canada and Alaska, where the phenomenon may become visible once the sun sets in the state. A lesser, yet still possible likelihood of viewing aurora borealis is forecast in parts of Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Maine. (See map below.) Thursday’s view line. NOAA What’s The Best Way To See The Northern Lights? The northern lights are best seen throughout the winter months as the sun sets earlier in the day, though they can be viewed year-round, depending on solar activity. NOAA recommends traveling to a north-facing, high vantage point away from light pollution sometime between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. for observation. What’s The Best Way To Photograph The Northern Lights? Photography experts have recommended using a wide-angle lens, an aperture or F-stop…

Litecoin, Stellar Lead Altcoin Rally Following Bitcoin ‘Uptober’ Bounce

Litecoin, Stellar Lead Altcoin Rally Following Bitcoin ‘Uptober’ Bounce

The post Litecoin, Stellar Lead Altcoin Rally Following Bitcoin ‘Uptober’ Bounce appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Litecoin surged 10% to $118, while Stellar gained 9% to $0.40. Short liquidations topped $480 million in 24 hours, as sentiment flips sentiment from fear to greed. Traders are rotating into older coins with Bitcoin rising more than 8% since September 28. The “Uptober” effect is in full swing.  Kicking off what has historically been Bitcoin’s strongest month, the original crypto has sparked a broad market rally, with capital rotating into older altcoins.  The forceful move has caught many traders off guard, triggering a massive wave of short liquidations and flipping overall market sentiment from fear to greed in a matter of days.  Litecoin has taken the lead among the top cryptocurrencies, surging 10% over the last 24 hours to trade at $118. Litecoin’s outsized gains come amid hopes of a spot ETF approval, with the Canary Litecoin ETF facing its final Securities and Exchange Commission decision deadline on October 2.  While a U.S. government shutdown continues to weigh on investors’ minds, particularly as delays at the regulator have been put on hold, some are optimistic the issue will be resolved swiftly. Stellar has followed closely with a 9% gain, reaching $0.40. “Macroeconomic factors such as the U.S. government shutdown concerns and a drop in private sector employment are pushing investors toward safe-haven assets like Bitcoin and Gold.” Balaji Srihari, Vice President at CoinSwitch, told Decrypt. As a result, capital is rotating into “dino coins,” Srihari said, referring to the 2017-launched Layer 1 tokens.  That surge has led to short liquidations exceeding $480 million in a 24-hour period, according to CoinGlass data. Compared to just $110 million in long liquidations, the disproportionate culling of bears hints at the magnitude of outsized buying pressure. As a result, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has shifted from fear to…

CME Group eyes 24/7 crypto derivatives trading expansion

CME Group eyes 24/7 crypto derivatives trading expansion

The post CME Group eyes 24/7 crypto derivatives trading expansion appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group, the leading US derivatives exchange, announced it will begin offering 24/7 trading for cryptocurrency futures and options in early 2026, pending a regulatory review. Under the plan, CME’s cryptocurrency products will trade continuously on the CME Globex platform with only a two-hour weekend maintenance period. Transactions executed during holidays or over weekends will carry the following business day’s trade date, with clearing and settlement also processed on that timeline. “While not all markets lend themselves to operating 24/7, client demand for around-the-clock cryptocurrency trading has grown as market participants need to manage their risk every day of the week,” said Tim McCourt, Global Head of Equities, FX and Alternative Products at CME Group. “Ensuring that our regulated cryptocurrency markets are always on will enable clients to trade with confidence at any time.” The potential expansion comes on the heels of record volumes in CME’s crypto segment. In its latest market statistics, also published today, CME reported a record average daily volume of 340,000 cryptocurrency contracts in Q3 2025, representing about $14.1 billion in notional value. Ether futures reached a quarterly record of 236,000 contracts, while Micro Ether futures set a record of 209,000 contracts. In September alone, cryptocurrency ADV hit 309,000 contracts, with Micro Ether futures surging 472% year over year. These gains underscore the deepening role of digital assets within CME’s broader portfolio, which also saw strong growth in US Treasury, equity index, and metals trading. If implemented as planned, the shift will reduce traders’ reliance on offshore venues for weekend and overnight risk management. It also signals CME’s intent to capture a greater share of institutional crypto derivatives activity within regulated US markets, though the change will require infrastructure adjustments in clearing, margin, and settlement to handle continuous operations. This is a developing story. This article…

Prices Top $119K as U.S. Government Shutdown Takes Effect; Options Look Cheap

Prices Top $119K as U.S. Government Shutdown Takes Effect; Options Look Cheap

The post Prices Top $119K as U.S. Government Shutdown Takes Effect; Options Look Cheap appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin BTC$119,694.22 jumped to its highest in over two months as the U.S. government shut down operations, likely setting the stage for a positive fiat liquidity impulse. The leading cryptocurrency has risen nearly 4% in the past 24 hours, with prices briefly rising to $119,455 for the first time since mid-August, CoinDesk data show. Other major tokens such as ether ETH$4,413.04, XRP$2.9804, solana SOL$226.53 and DOGE$0.2546 have risen 4% to 7%. The CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) has jumped 5% to 4,217 points. The rally follows a U.S. government shutdown on Wednesday after a deeply divided Congress prevented officials from reaching a funding deal. The shutdown could delay Friday’s nonfarm payrolls report, the official monthly jobs figure, which would eventually set the stage for a positive liquidity impulse or expansion of liquidity in the financial system. This often results in easier access to funding, reduces cost of borrowing and encourages economic growth and risk-taking in financial markets. “If ADP is a leading signal and the BLS print is delayed, the Fed is likely to deliver a 25 bp cut in October and pair it with guidance that keeps a second cut on the table by December, alongside an early nod toward tapering quantitative tightening (QT). That mix should pull real yields lower and soften the dollar into Q4, with a mild bear-steepening in the curve and gold staying bid. Net effect: a positive liquidity impulse that historically supports BTC,” Matt Mena, Crypto Research Strategist at 21Shares said in an email. Wednesday’s ADP private payrolls report painted a bleak picture of the labor market, strengthening the case for continued rate cuts by the Fed. The central bank cut rates by 25 basis points last month, while hinting at additional easing in the coming months. Mena added that BTC’s price gain in the…

Why Gossiping to All Peers Might Be the Smartest Move for Small Networks

Why Gossiping to All Peers Might Be the Smartest Move for Small Networks

This article breaks down three smart optimizations for improving node synchronization in blockchain and distributed systems. First, gossiping to all peers accelerates sync when networks are small and latency predictable. Second, reducing timestamp index size works when no duplicate timestamps exist, cutting storage overhead. Third, replacing public keys with compact bitmap encoding minimizes replication traffic, as nodes share identical key sets. Together, these techniques streamline bandwidth usage, reduce latency, and make replication faster and more efficient.
