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.

EUR/USD climbs to 1.1700 as ECB holds steady, US CPI reinforces Fed cut bets

EUR/USD climbs to 1.1700 as ECB holds steady, US CPI reinforces Fed cut bets

The post EUR/USD climbs to 1.1700 as ECB holds steady, US CPI reinforces Fed cut bets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Euro (EUR) reverses sharply against the US Dollar (USD) on Thursday, snapping a two-day losing streak and climbing back above the 1.1700 mark as traders digest the European Central Bank (ECB) policy announcement and US inflation data. The ECB maintained its key policy rates, including the Main Refinancing Rate at 2.15% and the Deposit Facility Rate at 2.00%, aligning with market expectations. The accompanying statement emphasized that inflation is currently around the 2% target, while the outlook remains “broadly unchanged.” The ECB now sees core inflation at 2.4% in 2025, before easing to 1.9% in 2026 and 1.8% in 2027, suggesting that underlying price pressures remain persistent in the medium term. On the growth front, the central bank lowered its 2026 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) projection to 1.0%, while keeping the 2027 forecast unchanged at 1.3%, signaling a more cautious stance on the recovery. Policymakers reaffirmed that future interest rate decisions will be data-dependent, based on the evolving inflation outlook, underlying dynamics, and incoming macroeconomic and financial data. In the US, the August Consumer Price Index (CPI) data came in broadly in line with expectations, though the monthly headline figure ticked higher. Headline CPI rose 0.4% MoM, up from July’s 0.2% and slightly above the 0.3% consensus. On a yearly basis, headline inflation rose to 2.9% from 2.7%, matching market forecasts. Core CPI, which strips out food and energy, held steady at 0.3% MoM and 3.1% YoY, matching forecasts. With core inflation holding steady and headline inflation showing a modest uptick, the report gave a mixed signal on US inflation trends. Markets reacted calmly to the report, with Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate-cut expectations firming slightly. According to CME’s FedWatch tool, the odds of a 25 basis point rate cut in December rose to 94%, up from 90% before…

Consumer Price Index rises 2.9% in August as expected

The post Consumer Price Index rises 2.9% in August as expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Annual inflation in the United States (US), as measured by the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), rose to 2.9% in August from 2.7% in July, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported on Thursday.

Follow our live coverage of the US inflation data and the market reaction. The core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, increased 3.1% on a yearly basis in August, matching July’s print and analysts’ estimate. “The index for shelter rose 0.4 percent in August and was the largest factor in the all items monthly increase,” the BLS noted in its press release. “The food index increased 0.5 percent over the month as the food at home index rose 0.6 percent and the food away from home index increased 0.3 percent. The index for energy rose 0.7 percent in August as the index for gasoline increased 1.9 percent over the month.” Market reaction to US CPI inflation data The US Dollar (USD) came under modest bearish pressure with the immediate reaction to the US CPI inflation data.

Bitcoin surpasses 1 ZH/s: historic record for hashrate

Bitcoin surpasses 1 ZH/s: historic record for hashrate

The post Bitcoin surpasses 1 ZH/s: historic record for hashrate appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin has surpassed the zettahash threshold: the 7-day moving average of the hashrate has risen above 1 ZH/s, with recent estimates around ~1.03 ZH/s. The data updated as of September 11, 2025 UTC was reported by Hashrate Index and also covered by industry outlets like CoinDesk. The downside is clear: the hashprice drops to about $53.10 per day per PH/s, down -8.39% on a monthly basis. In this context, the network is more robust and secure, but the increasing competition among miners compresses margins. According to data collected by Hashrate Index and verified by our analysis team, surpassing the threshold is attributable to new installations and fleet upgrades in North America and Asia. Industry analysts also note that many farms are pushing for efficiency through ASIC upgrades and energy procurement strategies. What does this hashrate record mean for the Bitcoin network? A hashrate above 1 zettahash per second indicates a more resilient and more decentralized network. The influx of new power – including farm renewals, ASIC upgrades, and energy optimizations – makes network attacks much more costly. That said, it also results in a broader distribution of rewards, with less generous unit revenues for each miner. Key Numbers: Trends and Sources Hashrate (7-day moving average): above 1 ZH/s with current estimates around ~1.03 ZH/s (data updated as of September 11, 2025; main source: Hashrate Index). Historic record: confirmed by surpassing the threshold of 1 ZH/s, as reported by industry publications including CoinDesk. Recent volatility: a brief dip followed by a swift recovery in the pace of computation. Note on the unit of measure: 1 ZH/s = 1,000 EH/s = 1,000,000 PH/s. The new peak, “over 1 ZH/s,” was achieved following the correct conversion, unlike some incorrect measurements reported previously. Difficulty: increase expected With medium blocks being mined more quickly, the…

US weekly Initial Jobless Claims rise to 263K vs. 235K expected

US weekly Initial Jobless Claims rise to 263K vs. 235K expected

The post US weekly Initial Jobless Claims rise to 263K vs. 235K expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Initial Jobless Claims in the US rose by 27,000 in the week ending September 6. The US Dollar Index stays in negative territory below 98.00. There were 263,000 initial jobless claims in the week ending September 6, according to data published Thursday by the United States (US) Department of Labor (DOL). This figure followed the previous week’s print of 236,000 (revised from 237,000) and came in worse than the market expectation of 235,000. Further details of the publication revealed that the advance seasonally adjusted insured unemployment rate was 1.3%. “The advance number for seasonally adjusted insured unemployment during the week ending August 30 was 1,939,000, unchanged from the previous week’s revised level,” the DOL noted in the press release. Market reaction The US Dollar Index pushes lower following the disappointing Jobless Claims data and was last seen losing 0.08% on the day at 97.70. Employment FAQs Labor market conditions are a key element to assess the health of an economy and thus a key driver for currency valuation. High employment, or low unemployment, has positive implications for consumer spending and thus economic growth, boosting the value of the local currency. Moreover, a very tight labor market – a situation in which there is a shortage of workers to fill open positions – can also have implications on inflation levels and thus monetary policy as low labor supply and high demand leads to higher wages. The pace at which salaries are growing in an economy is key for policymakers. High wage growth means that households have more money to spend, usually leading to price increases in consumer goods. In contrast to more volatile sources of inflation such as energy prices, wage growth is seen as a key component of underlying and persisting inflation as salary increases are unlikely to be undone.…

Sui Enhances Data Access with GraphQL RPC and Indexer Beta

Sui Enhances Data Access with GraphQL RPC and Indexer Beta

The post Sui Enhances Data Access with GraphQL RPC and Indexer Beta appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tony Kim Sep 10, 2025 18:39 Sui introduces GraphQL RPC and General-purpose Indexer in public beta, offering advanced tools for structured data access and interaction with blockchain data. Sui has launched a public beta of its GraphQL RPC and General-purpose Indexer, marking a significant upgrade in blockchain data access. This new system is designed to simplify and empower developers’ interaction with Sui data, according to Sui Foundation. A New Era in Blockchain Data Querying The introduction of GraphQL RPC offers a high-level query language that enhances developer productivity. This release allows for more scalable and expressive tools, enabling developers, indexer operators, and data providers to interact with blockchain data more efficiently. Unlike traditional JSON-RPC, which is tailored for low-level interactions, GraphQL RPC is optimized for declarative queries, joins, relationships, and powerful filtering. Advanced Features and Integration The beta version includes a GraphQL RPC server with a typed schema over various blockchain elements like transactions and events. It also features a General-purpose Indexer that processes Sui checkpoints into a Postgres-compatible database, and connectivity to an Archival Service for historical data lookups. These components collectively reduce the need for custom indexers, facilitating easier development with Sui data. Layered Data Access Approach Sui’s layered data stack begins with gRPC APIs, offering real-time streaming capabilities. Above this, the GraphQL RPC and Indexer provide structured access to onchain data, suitable for applications like wallets and explorers. Developers can further extend this stack using Custom Indexers for specific application or protocol logic. Real-World Applications and Future Plans Early adopters are already leveraging GraphQL RPC for more efficient data handling in wallets, dashboards, and explorers. The system’s open API layer benefits both application teams and RPC providers. Looking ahead, Sui plans to introduce proper SDK support, performance benchmarking tools,…

Bitcoin ETF’s beleven beste dag in maanden: einde correctie?

Bitcoin ETF’s beleven beste dag in maanden: einde correctie?

De bitcoin (BTC) koers zit al een paar weken in een slechte vorm. Maar de beursgenoteerde bitcoin-fondsen uit de Verenigde Staten zijn al veel langer de draad kwijt. Gisteren lieten de beursproducten wel weer een topdag zien. Is dit dan het startschot van een nieuwe sterke fase? Ruim $700 miljoen naar BTC-fondsen De elf fondsen die de bitcoin koers volgen, door daadwerkelijk bitcoins te kopen met het geld dat er binnenstroomt, noteerden gisteren een netto-instroom van 741,5 miljoen dollar. Dat blijkt uit data van Farside Investors. Het is het beste resultaat sinds 17 juli. Er zijn drie fondsen die we daar vooral voor mogen bedanken: het ARKB-fonds van ARK Invest en 21Shares (145,1 miljoen dollar), het IBIT-fonds van BlackRock (211,2 miljoen dollar) en het FBTC-fonds van Fidelity (299 miljoen dollar). Het was bovendien de derde positieve dag op rij. Nu is dat normaal gesproken niks bijzonders, maar de afgelopen tijd kiezen veel ETF-investeerders eieren voor hun geld. Vooral sinds de bitcoin koers verzeild is geraakt in een bloederige correctie.  Op 14 augustus bereikte bitcoin een nieuwe all-time high van 124.500 dollar, maar daarna is het voor twee weken lang bijna alleen maar gedaald. Deze maand is de koers bezig aan een herstel en gisteren werd daarin de belangrijkste stap gezet. Bitcoin sloot de dag namelijk af boven de 113.500 dollar. Daarmee werd voor het eerst in een maand tijd weer eens een higher high neergezet. De neerwaartse trend kan nu dus definitief achter ons gelaten worden. #BTC successfully reclaims $113.5k and has created a daily higher high thus ending the month long downtrend: pic.twitter.com/jRq25YplI7 — Matthew Hyland (@MatthewHyland_) September 11, 2025 Amerikaanse inflatiecijfers in de vorm van de producentenprijsindex (PPI) gaven gisteren het zetje dat bitcoin nodig had. De cijfers kwamen veel lager binnen dan verwacht, en op maandbasis was er zelfs sprake van deflatie (prijsdaling, van 0,1 procent).  Vandaag kwam de consumentenprijsindex zoals verwacht binnen op 2,9 procent en dat heeft vooralsnog weinig veranderd in de grafieken. De markt kan nu zonder zorgen uitkijken naar de eerste renteverlaging van de Amerikaanse centrale bank sinds december. Dat zou de koers naar de volgende halte van 117.000 dollar kunnen brengen. ETH breekt uit tegenover BTC De ethereum ETF’s hebben al een tijdje het nakijken op de bitcoin-fondsen. En ook gisteren scoorde ethereum een stuk minder goed met een totale instroom van 171,5 miljoen dollar. De ETH/BTC-grafiek beweegt ook al twee en een halve week naar beneden, wat simpelweg betekent dat ethereum waarde verliest ten opzichte van bitcoin. Bitcoin presteert dus beter. Maar vandaag staat ethereum er weer beter voor en is de grafiek boven een neerwaartse trendlijn gebroken. Dat zou kunnen betekenen dat ethereum de komende tijd weer de hoofdrol pakt. https://Twitter.com/SilverBulletBTC/status/1966058026315690372 Het bericht Bitcoin ETF’s beleven beste dag in maanden: einde correctie? is geschreven door Ivo Melchers en verscheen als eerst op Bitcoinmagazine.nl.
