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.

Altcoin Season Index Hits Record High

Altcoin Season Index Hits Record High

The post Altcoin Season Index Hits Record High appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Altcoin Season Index hits 84 as ETH, SOL, DOGE, and XRP surge, surpassing Bitcoin’s gains and signaling a strong market shift. The Altcoin Season Index has surged to 84, signaling a shift in market momentum as Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin, and XRP lead the charge. This marks the start of altcoin season, with these cryptocurrencies outperforming Bitcoin in the current cycle. Altcoin Season Index Reaches 84 The Altcoin Season Index has climbed to 84, confirming that altcoins are dominating the market. This is a significant jump, as it reflects a broader trend where altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin, which has been the leader for months.  The 75% threshold was surpassed, indicating a strong shift towards riskier assets offering potentially higher returns. This change suggests that many investors are rotating their capital from Bitcoin into altcoins, driving up their market value. The shift has been reinforced by positive price movements in popular altcoins such as Ethereum, Solana, and Dogecoin. According to Blockchain Center, the Altcoin Season Index is calculated based on the performance of altcoins relative to Bitcoin. When the index surpasses 75, it signals a full-blown altcoin season. The current momentum supports this view, with altcoins like XRP seeing significant gains. Altcoin Leaders Drive the Rally Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin, and XRP are leading the rally as the Altcoin Season Index hits new heights. XRP has surged by 12% in the past week, trading above $3.15. Ethereum is holding strong above $4,690, continuing its upward trend. Dogecoin recently broke above $0.30 after a 10% daily rise, while Solana maintains its position near $240 despite slight fluctuations. This market shift is supported by buying pressure from institutional investors and digital asset treasury companies. As these assets gain momentum, the capital rotation from Bitcoin to altcoins is becoming more apparent. With the Altcoin Season…

Crypto Market Rally Faces FOMC Test: Will Momentum Continue This Week?

Crypto Market Rally Faces FOMC Test: Will Momentum Continue This Week?

The post Crypto Market Rally Faces FOMC Test: Will Momentum Continue This Week? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Welcome to the Asia Pacific Morning Brief—your essential digest of overnight crypto developments shaping regional markets and global sentiment. Monday’s edition is last week’s wrap-up and this week’s forecast, brought to you by Paul Kim. Grab a green tea and watch this space. The crypto market finally saw significant momentum last week. As of Sunday at 4:00 PM UTC, Bitcoin’s price had jumped 4.78%. Altcoins soared even higher, with ETH climbing 7.72% and SOL skyrocketing by 22.65%. Sponsored Sponsored Rising Rate Cut Hopes Drive Rally The primary driver behind the recent surge in crypto and other risk assets is growing anticipation of US interest rate cuts. This expectation intensified after the August US non-farm payrolls (NFP) figures were released on September 5. Following that report, markets priced in a 0.75 percentage point cut by the end of 2025 and 1.5 percentage points by September of the following year. However, the Federal Reserve has hesitated to cut rates unilaterally, as consumer inflation remains stubbornly high, holding steady at around 3%—well above its target. The market’s recent surge was primarily triggered by encouraging inflation data. On Wednesday, the August US Producer Price Index (PPI) was announced to have dropped by 0.1% month-over-month, falling short of the anticipated 0.3% increase. This marked the first decline in producer prices in four months. A closer look at the data revealed a notable detail: corporate profit margins in wholesale and retail trade declined, particularly for machinery and vehicles. This suggests that companies absorb some of the cost increases rather than pass them entirely to consumers. Experts interpreted this as a sign that inflationary pressures are easing more than expected. The US August Consumer Price Index (CPI) met market expectations on Thursday. While the uptrend in inflation held, the market was relieved that the pace was not accelerating. In response, Bitcoin’s…

US household net worth surged by $7.1 trillion in Q2, adding $79 billion every day for 3 months

US household net worth surged by $7.1 trillion in Q2, adding $79 billion every day for 3 months

The post US household net worth surged by $7.1 trillion in Q2, adding $79 billion every day for 3 months appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US household net worth exploded by $7.1 trillion in Q2 2025, averaging a gain of $79 billion every single day for three months straight, according to the latest Federal Reserve Z.1 report. Total wealth rose to a record $176.3 trillion, the largest jump since late 2020 during the COVID rebound. This is not normal. It’s rare as hell. And it comes while inflation’s above 3%, rates are being cut, and the job market is struggling. But the money’s flowing, just not to everyone. The numbers show the wealth gap is ripping wider. And most of this windfall? It came straight from Wall Street. The S&P 500 just pulled off a 30% rally in five months, starting in April. Only five times since 1975 has that happened. The last two were in 2020 and 2009. Stock boom hands top 1% a $40 trillion lead This stock run didn’t lift all boats. It supercharged the yachts. The top 1% now hold $40 trillion more than the bottom 50% combined. That lower half owns just 2.5% of the nation’s net worth. Meanwhile, the wealth-to-GDP ratio shot up to 581%, the highest since Q1 2022. That stat means asset owners, basically the rich, are getting richer at a speed that leaves wage earners far behind. Rate cuts are coming. And they’re not waiting for inflation to cool. For the first time in more than three decades, the Fed is set to lower rates with PCE inflation above 2.9%. Jerome Powell and his team will point to a soft labor market as the reason. But the impact is lower rates fuel higher asset prices. And those without assets, they’re just stuck watching. The top 10% of Americans, who already own most of the investable wealth, are set to benefit again. A survey shows 70% of…

Underperforming Altcoins Are Confusing Treasury Narrative

Underperforming Altcoins Are Confusing Treasury Narrative

The post Underperforming Altcoins Are Confusing Treasury Narrative appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Companies adding underperforming altcoins to their balance sheets are muddying the broader treasury narrative, says Bitcoin treasury company Nakamoto CEO, David Bailey. “The treasury company moniker itself is confusing,” Bailey said in an X post on Sunday.  “Toxic financing, failed altcoins rebranded as DATs, too many failed companies with no plan or vision. It’s totally muddled the narrative,” Bailey said. David Bailey says the sector is “being tested” Bailey emphasized that “the core strategy is to build and monetize your balance sheet.” “If you can do it well, you will grow your assets over time; if you do it poorly, you will trade at a discount and be consumed by someone who can do it better,” he said. “The bitcoin treasury company of the fiat system is a bank. Today we are building Bitcoin Banks. If you’re afraid of that term, call them Bitcoin financial institutions.” Bailey said that the entire treasury sector is “being tested.” His comments come as publicly-listed companies are starting to look beyond Bitcoin (BTC) and down the risk curve for other crypto assets to add to their treasuries. On Aug. 2, it was reported that Nasdaq-listed Mill City Ventures III may raise another $500 million under an equity agreement to fund its recently announced Sui treasury strategy. Source: Jeff Park Narrative-driven theses are driving firms to expand their treasuries beyond Bitcoin, Galaxy Digital said in a July 31 report. Ether (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP (XRP), BNB (BNB), and HyperLiquid (HYPE) are among the cryptocurrencies gaining traction outside of Bitcoin. Bitcoin held in publicly-traded companies is approximately $117.91 billion at the time of publication, according to BitcoinTreasuries.NET. Ether is gaining traction as an alternative because it can also be staked for annual returns, making it a store of value and a source of income. Approximately 3.14%…

$17.5 billion in catastrophe bonds under threat as EU mulls retail fund ban

$17.5 billion in catastrophe bonds under threat as EU mulls retail fund ban

The post $17.5 billion in catastrophe bonds under threat as EU mulls retail fund ban appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Asset managers across Europe and the U.S. are on alert after the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) told the European Commission that catastrophe bonds, tied to extreme natural disasters, don’t belong in funds sold under the UCITS label. The warning puts $17.5 billion worth of bonds at risk, all of it currently sitting inside funds meant to be safe enough for retail investors. The decision now sits with the Commission, and if they go along with it, fund managers could be forced into a fast and messy selloff. The catastrophe bond market is worth around $56 billion, and about one-third of that is now wrapped up in UCITS products. Over the past year alone, about $5 billion more was added to these funds, according to Plenum Investments. This is all happening during the U.S. hurricane season, which is when many of the most active cat bonds get triggered. The potential fallout is serious, especially for retail-heavy portfolios. Neuberger and PGGM flag liquidity risks and exposure gaps Peter DiFiore, managing director at Neuberger Berman in New York, warned that the idea that these bonds are untouchable during market turmoil is a dangerous myth. “We’ve not yet seen a big liquidity event,” Peter said. “The case for liquidity is much higher than it was before.” His firm manages $1.3 billion in cat bonds, none of which are in UCITS products. But he’s watching closely. If retail-heavy funds are forced to unwind quickly, it could create what Peter called “buying opportunities in the secondary market.” These bonds work like this: an insurance company wants to spread risk in case something like a hurricane wipes out a city. So they issue a catastrophe bond, and if nothing bad happens, the investors earn big. But if disaster hits, literally, investors can lose most or…

Pakistan Opens Doors to Global Crypto Firms with New Licensing Program

Pakistan Opens Doors to Global Crypto Firms with New Licensing Program

The post Pakistan Opens Doors to Global Crypto Firms with New Licensing Program appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pakistan has made a major move in the crypto world. The country is now asking global cryptocurrency companies to apply for licenses to operate there. This marks a huge shift from Pakistan’s earlier stance against digital currencies. On September 14, 2025, the Pakistan Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (PVARA) announced it wants international crypto exchanges and service providers to submit applications. The move shows Pakistan is serious about becoming a player in the digital money space. New Rules and Requirements PVARA was created under the Virtual Assets Ordinance 2025, which became law in July. The authority follows standards set by major international groups like the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), International Monetary Fund (IMF), and World Bank. Only certain companies can apply. They must already have licenses from well-known regulators like the US Securities and Exchange Commission, UK Financial Conduct Authority, or similar agencies in the EU, UAE, or Singapore. Companies wanting to operate in Pakistan need to provide detailed information. This includes their company background, current licenses, what services they offer, their security measures, and how much money they manage. Most importantly, they need a specific business plan for Pakistan. Bilal bin Saqib, who leads PVARA and serves as Pakistan’s minister of state for crypto and blockchain, said this invitation aims to build a “transparent and inclusive digital financial future for Pakistan.” Pakistan’s Growing Crypto Market The numbers show why global companies might be interested. Pakistan has over 40 million crypto users with annual trading worth more than $300 billion. The country jumped to third place in Chainalysis’ 2025 Global Crypto Adoption Index, moving up six spots from the previous year. This growth happened even though crypto operated in a legal gray area for years. Pakistan initially banned Bitcoin trading in 2018 but slowly softened its position. Now the government…

Aurora Could Appear in These 15 States Tonight

Aurora Could Appear in These 15 States Tonight

The post Aurora Could Appear in These 15 States Tonight appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The northern lights will be more visible than previously expected Sunday night, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s updated space weather forecast, as minor geomagnetic storm effects could lead to more aurora activity across the northern United States. Minor geomagnetic storm effects could cause the aurora to appear brighter Sunday night. Getty Images Key Facts Forecasters at NOAA predict a Kp index of five out of nine, meaning a potentially “brighter” aurora with “more auroral activity (motion and formations).” A G1-level geomagnetic storm could affect Earth’s magnetic field, forecasters said, due to the impacts of coronal hole high speed streams—solar winds that escape from ”cooler, less dense” regions of the sun. Which States Could See The Aurora? The aurora could be viewable in states along the U.S.-Canadian border, according to NOAA. These include all of North Dakota and Minnesota, along with nearly all of Wisconsin, most of Michigan, South Dakota, Montana and Washington. The Northern Idaho panhandle could also see auroral activity, as well as northeastern Wyoming and northern Iowa. On the East Coast, the northern lights could be visible in northern Upstate New York, northern Vermont, northern New Hampshire and northern Maine. Additionally, the aurora could appear over Alaska, with a large portion of the state within the “high likelihood” range to see the lights Sunday, according to NOAA. What’s The Best Way To View The Northern Lights? Prospective northern lights viewers should move away from bright city lights and toward the Earth’s magnetic north pole. Viewers should also seek a vantage point with an “unobstructed view toward the north,” NOAA forecasters say. The northern lights are most active within two hours before and after midnight, according to NOAA. Lights could still be present before and after this time period, though they may be less appealing.…

Dogecoin koers breekt uit driehoekspatroon: Kan DOGE naar $0,45?

Dogecoin koers breekt uit driehoekspatroon: Kan DOGE naar $0,45?

Connect met Like-minded Crypto Enthusiasts! Connect op Discord! Check onze Discord   Dogecoin heeft een duidelijke technische uitbraak laten zien. De munt steeg de afgelopen week met ruim 30% en noteert nu rond $0,29. Kan de Dogecoin koers deze stijgende lijn doorzetten? Enkele analisten zijn in ieder geval positief over DOGE. Technische niveaus bepalen richting van de Dogecoin koers Analisten zien verschillende koersdoelen voor Dogecoin. Een eerste zone ligt rond $0,45, waar de bovengrens van een meerjarige structuur samenkomt. Een verder scenario richt zich op $0,60, wat aansluit bij de projectie van de driehoek. De Relative Strength Index (RSI), een indicator die meet of een munt overgekocht of oververkocht is, laat nog geen extreme waarden zien. Hierdoor is er ruimte voor verdere beweging voordat de markt tekenen van oververhitting toont. Dogecoin cycle 3 loading.$DOGE cycle | Memecoin cycle pic.twitter.com/X3Yo5QflmP — EᴛʜᴇʀNᴀꜱʏᴏɴᴀL (@EtherNasyonaL) September 13, 2025 Naast de grafieken zijn ook de on-chain data positief. Een belangrijke graadmeter is de MVRV Z-Score. Deze vergelijkt de huidige prijs met de gemiddelde aankoopprijs van holders. Bij hoge waarden boven 7 ontstaat vaak risico op overwaardering. Toen Dogecoin in 2021 bijna $0,74 bereikte, liep de Z-Score zelfs op tot boven 20. Op dit moment ligt de waarde rond 1,35. Dat betekent dat de meeste holders geen buitensporige winsten hebben en dat er nog ruimte is voor verdere koopdruk. Lage waarden wijzen meestal op een markt die niet is overbelast en waar nog ruimte voor groei aanwezig is.

Fed-voorzitter Jerome Powell heeft aangekondigd dat de rentes binnenkort zomaar eens omlaag zouden kunnen gaan, en tegelijkertijd blijft BlackRock volop crypto kopen, en dus lijkt de markt klaar om te gaan stijgen.

In november 2023 maakte Dogecoin in korte tijd een stijging van meer dan 200%. De huidige combinatie van technische patronen en on-chain gegevens vertoont overeenkomsten met dat moment. Ook nu zien analisten een kans op een versnelling, mede doordat er nieuwe beleggingsproducten komen zoals Dogecoin ETF’s. Deze producten maken het voor traditionele beleggers eenvoudiger om blootstelling aan DOGE te krijgen. Afgelopen vrijdag stond de lancering van de Rex-Osprey DOGE ETF gepland als een mogelijke historische mijlpaal. Eric Balchunas, senior ETF-analist bij Bloomberg, meldde echter een dag eerder dat de introductie is uitgesteld, vermoedelijk tot aanstaande donderdag. Ondanks dit uitstel zette de Dogecoin koers zijn opmars voort. Volgens analisten zien beleggers regulatoire hobbels steeds vaker als normale stappen binnen het goedkeuringsproces. Het uitstel past in de strategie van de SEC om extra tijd te winnen. De toezichthouder heeft te maken met een ongekende achterstand van meer dan 90 aanvragen voor crypto-ETF’s. Recente vertragingen bij onder andere de Bitwise Dogecoin ETF en de Grayscale Hedera ETF, die beiden zijn doorgeschoven naar 12 november, laten deze zien dat veel aanvragen worden uitgesteld. Wat kunnen we van de DOGE koers verwachten? Als de huidige trend doorzet, ligt $0,45 binnen bereik. Bij een sterke voortzetting kan ook $0,60 in beeld komen. De technische patronen, het volume en de on-chain gegevens ondersteunen deze mogelijkheid. Belangrijk blijft dat de RSI niet te snel richting overbought verschuift. De combinatie van technische kracht en een gezonde on-chain situatie wijst erop dat Dogecoin nog niet aan een eindfase van zijn rally zit. De munt heeft bewezen dat hij onverwachte bewegingen kan brengen, vaak los van de bredere markt.

Analysis Firm Says “XRP at Critical Turning Point,” Unveils the Level to Watch

Analysis Firm Says “XRP at Critical Turning Point,” Unveils the Level to Watch

The post Analysis Firm Says “XRP at Critical Turning Point,” Unveils the Level to Watch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cryptocurrency analysis firm Egrag Crypto has published a compelling assessment of XRP. The analyst points to historical chart patterns, stating that XRP could enter a “historic turning point” in the coming period. Egrag Crypto stated that five separate body candles formed new highs on the two-month timeframe chart, while the parabolic skew presented an unprecedented structure. According to the analyst, even if the XRP price falls below $2, this period could be compared to the days when Bitcoin was $200, and those who bought at this level could be labeled “early whales” in the future. The analyst, stating that his strategy is based on a “buy low, sell high” approach, argued that users can buy and sell with a small portion of their portfolio (approximately 10-20%), but that the primary goal should be long-term gains from a macro perspective. Egrag recalled his buy calls when XRP was below $1, stating that he remained resolute despite intense criticism during this period and “persisted until the end for a mission.” On the technical analysis side, the analyst stated that a full-bodied close above $3.70 on the two-month chart for XRP could be a “go-to-space moment” and could usher in a new era for XRP users. *This is not investment advice.
