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.

Hacker Attack on Shiba Inu (SHIB) Network: Developers Issue Statement

Hacker Attack on Shiba Inu (SHIB) Network: Developers Issue Statement

The post Hacker Attack on Shiba Inu (SHIB) Network: Developers Issue Statement appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Shiba Inu (SHIB) has frozen 4.6 million BONE tokens after it was revealed that they were linked to a security breach in Shibarium, the protocol’s Layer-2 scaling solution. The Shiba Inu team has issued an official statement regarding suspicious activity flagged by PeckShield. The project team announced the launch of a comprehensive investigation involving both internal security staff and external partners. According to the update, the details of the hack are as follows: The attacker temporarily gained validator voting power by purchasing 4.6 million BONE in the same block with funds obtained from the bridge hack. This power was used to sign a malicious “state” on Shibarium. The transaction was repaid using 224.57 ETH and 92.6 billion SHIB, similar to a flash loan. Importantly, it was stated that BONEs cannot be withdrawn because they are delegated to validators. Investigations showed that signing keys for 10 out of 12 validators were compromised. The attacker attempted to sell approximately $700,000 worth of KNINE, but all attempts failed because the K9 Finance DAO multisig address was blacklisted. The LEASH, ROAR, TREAT, BAD, SHIFU tokens affected by the attack have not been moved yet. However, the developers reported that they have taken precautions regarding the hack attack: Staking/unstaking operations have been halted to protect community assets. The forensic analysis process was initiated with Hexens, Seal911 and PeckShield. *This is not investment advice.

Sellers hold control below 20- and 50-day SMAs

Sellers hold control below 20- and 50-day SMAs

The post Sellers hold control below 20- and 50-day SMAs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. USD/CHF up 0.12% but trades below 20- and 50-day SMA confluence at 0.8019/23, keeping sellers in control. RSI bearish but flat, suggesting near-term consolidation unless breakout above 0.8000 or drop below 0.7900 occurs. Upside targets include 0.8025 and 100-day SMA at 0.8109; downside risks point to yearly low at 0.7872. USD/CHF advanced during the North American session, yet it remains consolidating at around the 0.7950-0.8000 range ahead of the next week Federal Reserve’s monetary policy meeting. The pair trades at 0.7966 up 0.12%. USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook The USD/CHF daily chart shows that price action is poised to test yearly lows. Spot prices remain below the 20 and 50-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) confluence at 0.8019/23, an indication that sellers remain in charge. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bearish, but flatlined. This means that the USD/CHF could be directionless in the short-term, unless the pair clear key support/resistance levels. On the upside, if USD/CHF climbs above 0.8000, the next ceiling level would be 0.8025, before aiming towards the 100-day SMA at 0.8109. Conversely, a drop below 0.7900 would sponsor a test of the yearly low of 0.7872.

Tesla and Micron are rallying into overbought zones with S&P at all-time high

Tesla and Micron are rallying into overbought zones with S&P at all-time high

The post Tesla and Micron are rallying into overbought zones with S&P at all-time high appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tesla and Micron are running hot as the S&P 500 locks in another record, ending the week at 6,600.21. That move followed higher unemployment claims and a drop in wholesale prices, pushing traders to fully expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 0.25 percentage points next week. The index rose 1.6% this week. But that rally has shoved certain stocks into overbought territory, and two of the loudest names on that list are Tesla and Micron. Data from CNBC flags S&P 500 names with gains above 5% and relative strength indexes (RSI) over 70. That threshold is where traders usually get twitchy, anything above 70 often signals too much buying too fast. Micron now holds an RSI of 81.2, while Tesla is sitting at 75.6. That makes both stocks extremely vulnerable to sudden reversals, especially if investors decide to cash out. Micron hits 2020-level gains as analysts raise targets Micron’s stock surged 20% this week, the biggest five-day jump for the chipmaker since March 2020. That move followed a price target upgrade by Citi on Thursday, which bumped their estimate to $175, an 11% gain from Friday’s close. In a note, Citi analyst Christopher Danely wrote: “Micron will report F4Q25 results on September 23 after market close. We expect the company to report in-line results and guide well above consensus driven by higher DRAM and NAND sales and pricing. We believe the continued memory upturn is being driven by limited production and better than expected demand, particularly from the data center end market (55% of Micron revenue).” Micron’s gains were not isolated. The rally was part of a wider $14 trillion rise across equities since April. But its extreme RSI shows it may be peaking, at least for now. Traders holding these gains might book profits ahead of…

Is It Time For A New Hurricane Scale? A Florida Expert Thinks So

Is It Time For A New Hurricane Scale? A Florida Expert Thinks So

The post Is It Time For A New Hurricane Scale? A Florida Expert Thinks So appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SPRING LAKE, NC – SEPTEMBER 17: Bob Richling carries Iris Darden as water from the Little River starts to seep into her home on September 17, 2018 in Spring Lake, North Carolina. Flood waters from the cresting rivers inundated the area after the passing of Hurricane Florence. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images) Getty Images For the last few years, I have opined about the inadequacy of the Saffir — Simpson scale for conveying the full impacts of hurricanes. Harvey (2017), Milton (2024) and Helene (2024) are examples of hurricanes that altered landscapes and entire regions because of extreme rainfall, storm surge and tornadoes. Yet, the Saffir — Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale was designed to emphasize one hazard, wind. A professor at the University of South Florida and her team think it is time for a new scale. Dr. Jennifer Collins and her collaborators recently published a paper in the journal Scientific Reports that proposed replacing the Saffir — Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale with something called the Tropical Cyclone Severity Scale. The TCSS accounts for wind, storm surge, and rainfall. Collins, a professor and hurricane researcher in USF’s School of Geosciences, is an international expert versed in the physical and societal aspects of tropical cyclones. HOUSTON, TX – AUGUST 30: Flooded homes are shown near Lake Houston following Hurricane Harvey August 30, 2017 in Houston, Texas. The city of Houston is still experiencing severe flooding in some areas due to the accumulation of historic levels of rainfall, though the storm has moved to the north and east. (Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images) Getty Images In a USF press release issued in August, she said, “Frequently, people use the storm’s category to decide whether to evacuate, that’s incredibly dangerous because if they hear it’s only a tropical storm or Category 1, too…
