DEX

DEXs are peer-to-peer marketplaces where users trade cryptocurrencies directly from their wallets via Automated Market Makers (AMM) or on-chain order books. By removing central authorities, DEXs like Uniswap and Raydium prioritize privacy and user sovereignty. The 2026 DEX landscape is dominated by intent-based trading, MEV protection, and cross-chain liquidity aggregation. Follow this tag for the latest in on-chain trading volume, liquidity pools, and the technology behind permissionless swaps.

The 25 Colleges With The Highest Payoff

The 25 Colleges With The Highest Payoff

The post The 25 Colleges With The Highest Payoff appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. John Jay College of Criminal Justice is one of eight City University of New York colleges on our list of the 25 best schools for return on investment. Plexi Images/GHI/UCG/Universal Images Group/Getty Images With artificial intelligence beginning to eat away at many white-collar entry-level jobs, and the unemployment rate for recent college graduates currently higher than the overall rate, it’s easy to question the value of a college degree. And even those convinced of the long-term worth of a degree, can still get serious sticker shock from the listed tuition prices at private universities. The good news is that students don’t need to enroll at the most expensive universities to earn a degree worth the investment. And some of the most prestigious, fancy schools have pretty generous aid for middle-class students, as well those from poor families. As part of the Forbes 2026 Top Colleges ranking, we put together a list of the 25 schools that offer students the best returns on their investment—high earnings potential for a relatively low price. To determine which of Forbes’ top 500 colleges offer the best return on investment (ROI), we looked at each school’s price-to-earnings premium, a calculation by the think tank Third Way that shows the number of years it takes graduates to recoup the net cost (after grants and scholarships are deducted) of their education. And then we looked at the schools’ debt-to-percent-borrowed index, a figure that Forbes created for the top 500 colleges list. It takes into account the percentage of students who take on debt to attend a school, and how much debt those graduates leave with. All of the federal data we used is from the 2023-24 academic year. The 25 colleges that scored highly on both of these metrics are featured here. Four of the top five…

Robinhood, Strategy Plunge as They Won’t Be Included in S&P 500

Robinhood, Strategy Plunge as They Won’t Be Included in S&P 500

The post Robinhood, Strategy Plunge as They Won’t Be Included in S&P 500 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes Robinhood and Strategy shares fell after missing S&P 500 inclusion. Robinhood stock is up nearly 190% in 2025 but has been snubbed twice this year. Strategy bought 3,081 BTC for $356.9M, bringing holdings to 632,457 BTC. Shares of trading platform Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ: HOOD) and Bitcoin BTC $110 104 24h volatility: 1.4% Market cap: $2.19 T Vol. 24h: $52.29 B treasury giant Strategy Inc (NASDAQ: MSTR) slid in after-hours trading on Aug. 25 after the companies were passed over for inclusion in the S&P 500. The announcement from S&P Dow Jones Indices favored Interactive Brokers Group Inc (NASDAQ: IBKR), which will join the index on Aug. 28, replacing Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc (NASDAQ: WBA). Robinhood Snub Sends Shares Lower Wall Street had long anticipated Robinhood’s addition to the benchmark index, especially after its nearly 190% rally in 2025, fueled by retail enthusiasm and record-breaking stock highs. But once again, the company was overlooked, triggering a modest sell-off. Robinhood shares dropped 1.26% during Monday’s session to $107.40 and slid another 0.65% after hours. On the other hand, Interactive Brokers gained nearly 4.29% to $65.21 on Aug. 25 and is up 0.5% in the after-hours trading session. This marks the second time in recent months that Robinhood has been left out. Back in June, S&P Dow Jones announced no changes to the index, leaving HOOD out. Strategy Stumbles amid Bitcoin Drop Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) was also a candidate for S&P 500 inclusion after its market cap rose with Bitcoin’s rise to new all-time highs. However, the company was left out, and its shares fell 4.17% to $341 on Monday, followed by another 0.09% decline in after-hours trading. Bitcoin also slipped below $110,000, dropping as low as $108,000. Analysts expect the leading digital asset to soar in the fourth quarter…

Crypto market pullback triggers $900 million in leveraged liquidations, analysts point to further downside risks

Crypto market pullback triggers $900 million in leveraged liquidations, analysts point to further downside risks

PANews reported on August 26th that, according to The Block, Bitcoin fell to approximately $110,000 on Tuesday, dragging the overall cryptocurrency market lower. A wave of forced liquidations has heightened volatility in derivatives markets, with short-term volatility surging ahead of the release of key US economic data. CoinGlass data shows that over $900 million in leveraged positions were liquidated in the past 24 hours, the majority of which were long positions. Sean Dawson, head of research at Derive.xyz, stated that major cryptocurrencies had a dismal start to the week, with Bitcoin and Ethereum's daily volatility jumping from 15% and 41% to 38% and 70%, respectively. Recent higher-than-expected US Producer Price Index data has heightened market concerns about macroeconomic factors. Traders are seeking risk-averse protection ahead of the release of US GDP data on August 28th and employment data in early September, driving volatility higher. Caution has also emerged in the options market, with the 25-delta skew turning negative and demand for put options increasing, indicating "the strongest demand for downside protection in two weeks." Market odds are also shifting towards a retest of $100,000 for Bitcoin and $4,000 for Ethereum before the end of September. Leverage adjustments have been uneven. Glassnode data shows that total open interest in Bitcoin futures contracts fell 2.6%, while long funding rates increased 29%. BRN Research Director Timothy Misir believes the market decline is a result of leveraged funds liquidating. If Bitcoin fails to maintain near $110,000, technical indicators will appear "fragile." $103,700 and $100,800 are key levels, and a breach would "jeopardize the bull market structure." However, corporate funds and Wall Street have engaged in selective bottom-fishing amid market volatility.

XRP battles the $3 barrier amid institutional selling and triangle squeeze

XRP battles the $3 barrier amid institutional selling and triangle squeeze

The post XRP battles the $3 barrier amid institutional selling and triangle squeeze appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XRP trades near $2.94 amid high volume and cautious accumulation. Institutional selling and regulatory uncertainty pressure the price. A symmetrical triangle hints at a potential breakout or breakdown. XRP, currently trading at $2.94, is struggling to maintain momentum above $3 amid a mix of institutional selling and cautious accumulation by market participants. The cryptocurrency has experienced heightened volatility over the past few days, with the 24-hour range fluctuating between $2.85 and $2.97. Nevertheless, trading volume has remained elevated, reaching approximately $7.18 billion, reflecting active repositioning by both retail and institutional traders. Institutional selling weighs on price One of the main factors behind XRP’s recent downturn has been the large-scale offloading by institutional investors. These sales have contributed to a 1.58% decline from $2.95 to $2.90 in the last 24 hours, underscoring the influence of major holders on market sentiment. The downward pressure was exacerbated by low on-chain activity, leaving fewer buyers to absorb the selling and amplifying price swings. Over the past week, however, XRP has gained 3.28%, suggesting that some buyers remain willing to step in at lower levels. Spot flows show cautious accumulation Exchange data indicates that market participants are entering positions gradually rather than aggressively selling into the downturn. According to Coinglass data, the XRP spot netflows are at approximately $12.7 million, suggesting measured accumulation during the pullback. These modest inflows show that traders are positioning strategically, balancing risk with the potential for a rebound if XRP can reclaim higher levels. Descending triangle pattern forms signalling a breakout On the technical front, XRP is compressing within a descending symmetrical triangle, trading between $2.86 support and $3.12 resistance. Bulls are defending the lower end of this range, while sellers cap price under $3.05. The triangle pattern, evident on the four-hour and daily charts, suggests that the market is…

Bitcoin To Drive Pi Coin Price to All-Time Low—Just 3% From Bottom

Bitcoin To Drive Pi Coin Price to All-Time Low—Just 3% From Bottom

The post Bitcoin To Drive Pi Coin Price to All-Time Low—Just 3% From Bottom appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pi Coin continues to struggle in the ongoing bearish cycle, inching closer to a historic low. The cryptocurrency has been dragged down by broader market weakness, losing critical support levels in recent sessions.  With selling pressure intensifying, Pi Coin is showing signs that a new all-time low may be imminent. Pi Coin Is Following Bitcoin Pi Coin’s price action has increasingly mirrored Bitcoin’s moves over the past week. The correlation between the two digital assets has risen sharply, climbing from 0.53 to 0.76. This growing alignment indicates that Pi Coin is becoming more dependent on Bitcoin’s trajectory, leaving little room for independent performance. The timing is critical, as Bitcoin fell below $110,000 earlier today, signaling weakness at the top of the crypto market. With Pi Coin’s heightened correlation to BTC, further declines in Bitcoin could directly pull the altcoin lower. Want more token insights like this? Sign up for Editor Harsh Notariya’s Daily Crypto Newsletter here. Pi Coin Correlation With Bitcoin. Source: TradingView Technical signals continue to paint a bearish outlook for Pi Coin. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is positioned below the neutral 50 mark, reflecting weakness across the board. While the indicator has not yet reached oversold conditions, its current placement highlights increasing downward momentum in the altcoin’s price structure. This suggests that Pi Coin remains vulnerable to continued pressure as the bearish trend strengthens. Without significant buying activity, the cryptocurrency could remain locked in its current trajectory. The absence of oversold conditions also removes the possibility of an immediate technical rebound. Pi Coin RSI. Source: TradingView PI Price Is On Track To Make History Pi Coin is presently trading at $0.337, having slipped below the critical $0.344 support zone. That level had provided stability since the beginning of the month, but the recent drop indicates renewed weakness. Following last week’s decline,…

Bug Bounty Dex223

Bug Bounty Dex223

A new player has appeared in the DeFi segment — Dex223. A DEX platform focused on the ERC-223 fungible token standard. The developers led by the anonymous security expert Dexaran are promoting ERC-223 as a safe replacement for ERC-20. It was recently announced that the DEX core is ready, with internal and external audits conducted. Dex223 announces the final stage before the official launch — the Bug Bounty program. Dex223 invites researchers, blockchain engineers, and dApp developers to contribute to the security of the platform by receiving rewards for discovered vulnerabilities and errors. Scope of Research Not all Dex223 modules are covered by the Bug Bounty program, only the core, ready to enter the market. What Bug Bounty participants can work on: Smart contracts: all Dex223 contracts in the Ethereum mainnet and test networks (Dex223-contracts). Web application: https://test-app.dex223.io. Exchange interface: https://test-app.dex223.io/en/swap. API: public and authenticated endpoints (including fiat money in/out). Infrastructure: cloud services and deployment pipelines. What is not included in the Bug Bounty scope: MarginModule — margin trading module. PriceOracle — price oracles required for margin trading. Known issues: Pool creation: Error when one token is ERC-20 Origin and the other is ERC-223 Origin with no existing ERC-20 wrapper. Auto-conversion: No auto-conversion of ERC-20 wrapper tokens to ERC-223 Origin in pools that have only ERC-20-side liquidity for an ERC-20/223 pair. Third-party services not owned by Dex223. DDoS attacks. Physical security assessment. Social engineering. A report can be submitted to the GitHub repository “dex223-bug-bounty”: Click New Issue. Choose a template: Bug Report, Feature Request, or Question. Fill in what you found, where it is, and how to reproduce it. Submit. Error Levels and Rewards Dex223 has differentiated 4 levels of problem severity and corresponding rewards: Critical — 30M D223. A vulnerability that can completely disrupt the workflow of contracts. High — 7M D223. A serious problem with serious consequences, but not affecting the entire platform. Medium — 3M D223. May lead to loss of funds under certain conditions. Information — 1M D223. Best practices, documentation improvements, low-impact issues. Rewards are paid primarily in the platform’s native token D223. But there are exceptions for the possibility of payment in another cryptocurrency or bank transfer. It is also worth noting that Dex223 is considering the possibility of long-term partnership within special programs. The detailed structure of rewards, payment periods, and conditions can be read on GitHub Bug Bounty. A Good Opportunity Not every day does a new player appear in the DeFi sector with innovations different from the existing market. Dex223 has two unique features: support for both ERC-223 and ERC-20 token standards; hybrid liquidity pools capable of operating without splitting into separate pools, which in itself positively affects the platform’s liquidity and slippage in trading operations. Dex223 also implements one of the safest types of margin trading — encapsulated. It is all the more interesting for researchers and dApp engineers to participate in Bug Bounty Dex223. In addition to financial benefits, there is an opportunity to work on ERC-223 and dApps based on it, thereby increasing one’s qualifications and gaining recognition in the community, and with the significant spread of ERC-223, possibly being among the first on the crest of the wave. Useful links: Problem report submission page “dex223-bug-bounty/issues”. Contact with developers: Telegram or Discord. Official blog of Dex223.
