The XRP price has jumped 9% in the past week and 1.4% in the last 24 hours to trade at $2.65 as of 4 a.m. on a 3% increase in trading volume to $4.69 billion. That increase comes as the odds of a Fed rate cut on Wednesday soared to 97.8%, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch gauge. 🇺🇲 97.8% chance for 25 BPS rate cut at tomorrow's #FOMC 🔥 What di you think will happen after that? pic.twitter.com/D7tgj97mIN — Crypto Seth (@seth_fin) October 28, 2025 The rate decision looms amid a government shutdown that has delayed key jobs and inflation reports, leaving Fed Chair Jerome Powell and policymakers “flying blind,” using private data and market signals instead of official government statistics. Despite these challenges, slow job growth, rising unemployment, and inflation stuck at 3% have convinced most economists that a rate cut is the right move. A cut would bring the federal funds rate down to a range of 3.75%-4% from 4.00%-4.25%. ...

Financial educator Robert Kiyosaki has stressed that Ethereum (ETH) has the potential to deliver gains similar to Bitcoin (BTC).  The Rich Dad Poor Dad author identified Ethereum as the next big opportunity, comparable to Bitcoin when it was priced at $4,000.  Indeed, his outlook comes as Ethereum continues to find ways of trading around $5,000 following recent volatility.

Old thinkers will be left behind as the GAP becomes the GRAND CANYON. Consider those ideas and choose which side of the GAP you want to be on,...

Bitcoin (BTC) reversed sharply again on Tuesday, October 21, sliding nearly 3% and trading as low as $107,552 in the early hours, having lost all of its weekend momentum. The asset moved in step with the overall crypto market, whose total valuation has dropped more than 2% to $3.67 trillion.

Bitcoin’s (BTC) losing streak deepened on October 17, with the flagship cryptocurrency plunging to just above $104,000 and shedding almost $150 billion in market value in less than 24 hours. The decline pushed BTC’s market capitalization from $2.216 trillion on October 16 to $2.07 trillion, raising fears that the $100,000 threshold could be tested in the coming days. The latest drop was triggered by a renewed escalation in U.S.–China trade tensions. President Trump’s threat of 100% tariffs on Chinese imports sent shockwaves across global risk assets, driving investors toward gold while draining liquidity from crypto. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $536 million in outflows on October 16, the largest single-day withdrawal since August, underscoring that even institutional players are retreating in the face of heightened uncertainty. Derivatives markets added fuel to the fire. More than $1.15 billion in leveraged Bitcoin longs were liquidated within 48 hours, cre...

Institutions have returned to Bitcoin’s order books as crypto miner MARA Holdings adds $46.31 million worth of BTC and Michael Saylor hints at an upcoming Strategy purchase.

Despite current bearish sentiment, experts see Bitcoin’s (BTC) short-term crash as a temporary setback, with the asset poised for further gains. With Bitcoin nearing the $110,000 support level, analysts believe it could be headed for a blow-off top, a rapid, steep price surge driven by frenzied buying, typically followed by a sharp correction. Specifically, in an X post on October 11, Glassnode co-founders Jan Happel and Yann Alleman, who use the pseudonym Negentropic , noted that the flash crash highlights Bitcoin’s resilience.  Their outlook pointed to a short-term breakdown at $118,000 but emphasized that this event is only a temporary bump in the road. They predict that volatility will persist over the coming days, but prices are likely to climb higher by the end of the month. This flash crash creates an even stronger case for a blow off top. If you look at $btc it has just proven its resilience. This is a prelude to the correction that we will get when the ...

DeFi hub Wolf, operating under Byrrgis, has announced that more than 57% of its total WOLF token supply will be locked for two years, following recent incidents involving its Ethereum (ETH) bridge and an early token holder, as per the details shared with Finbold.

Nick Szabo, a prominent computer scientist known for introducing the concept of smart contracts, says that ETH’s valuation has a very low correlation to the Ethereum network’s use cases. “A fundamental problem with ETH valuation is that ethereum’s primary use cases are largely external to ETH’s market value,” he wrote on X.  “Ethereum can be very useful, its apps can garner great revenue, and ETH can still be low price — or vice versa — there is little link between them,” he added. Ethereum And Bitcoin Are Valuable For Different Reasons Szabo’s post comes after a long-standing debate over Bitcoin versus Ethereum. Over the years, there have been talks that ETH could eventually flip BTC to become the largest crypto in the market, but this is yet to happen. According to Szabo, Ethereum and Bitcoin play different roles in the market, and are therefore valuable for different reasons.  Ethereum serves as a prog...

The company behind Tether (USDT) and a financial services firm closely linked to the Bitcoin (BTC) hardware giant Bitmain Technologies are reportedly in talks to raise capital for a public vehicle that will accumulate the gold-pegged digital asset, Tether Gold (XAUt).

The two firms are already working on Tether Gold, but Antalpha’s announcement of an expanded partnership on September 29th broadens access to XAUt through services that include collateralized lending against the token. Antalpha says it will establish physical vaults in major financial centers around the world so XAUt holders can exchange their tokens for gold bars through local partners....
