BlackRock Crypto Transfer Signals Potential Selloff BlackRock moved $366 million worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum to Coinbase Prime yesterday. Transferring 1,885 BTC and 59,606 ETH to the exchange suggests potential selling pressure. Such institutional moves to trading platforms typically indicate preparation for market liquidation. Bitcoin declined sharply, touching 112K levels before recovering back above 113K. The selloff coincided with broader crypto weakness during Asian daytime hours.

Musthave meme coins voor 2025: PEPE NODE, Shiba Inu en Dogecoin

Musthave meme coins voor 2025: PEPE NODE, Shiba Inu en Dogecoin

i Kennisgeving: Dit artikel bevat inzichten van onafhankelijke auteurs en valt buiten de redactionele verantwoordelijkheid van BitcoinMagazine.nl. De informatie is bedoeld ter educatie en reflectie. Dit is geen financieel advies. Doe zelf onderzoek voordat je financiële beslissingen neemt. Crypto is zeer volatiel er zitten kansen en risicos aan deze investering. Je kunt je inleg verliezen. De memecoin sector start in 2025 met grote belangstelling vanuit institutionele partijen en concrete koersverwachtingen van grote analisten. Shiba Inu en Dogecoin zijn gevestigde tokens die zich voorbereiden op mogelijke ETF-goedkeuringen. Dit gebeurt nadat de Grayscale’s Dogecoin ETF erkend werd en de institutionele acceptatie daarmee groeide. Maar nieuwkomer PEPENODE heeft tijdens de presale al meer dan $ 270.000 opgehaald. Hierbij zijn 165 miljoen tokens ingezet met staking beloningen van momenteel 4754%. Shiba Inu (SHIB): institutionele erkenning bepaalt de vooruitzichten voor 2025 Shiba Inu heeft de potentie om winst te maken in 2025. De voorspellingen van Bezinga variëren van minimaal $ 0,00003 tot maximaal $ 0,00010, en met een gemiddelde van ongeveer $ 0,00006. De SHIB koers blijft echter met 85% onder all-time high (ATH). Het is dus duidelijk dat de token zal profiteren van de groeiende institutionele interesse in meme coin ETF-producten. Ook ontwikkelt het SHIB-ecosysteem zich enorm, waardoor er hier niet alleen gespeculeerd wordt met tokens. Het ecosysteem biedt met het Shibarium layer-2 netwerk een optimale infrastructuur voor gedecentraliseerde applicaties. Dit biedt utility om waardecreatie op lange termijn te stimuleren. De daling van 85% ten opzichte van de ATH biedt nu juist een interessant moment om in te stappen. Met name voor beleggers die de eerste stijging hebben gemist. De huidige koers maakt deze gevestigde meme coin infrastructuur daarom toegankelijker. SHIB heeft daarbij ook bewezen een sterke community te hebben en veel institutionele aandacht te trekken. Dogecoin (DOGE): ETF-potentieel creëert optimisme onder analisten In 2025 is Dogecoin goed gestart met optimisme van analisten. Zij verwachten namelijk dat de koers zal stijgen naar $ 1 en hoger. Deze voorspellingen bieden een interessant perspectief op de huidige koers, vooral nu Dogecoin met 69% onder de ATH beweegt. Ook kreeg Dogecoin erkenning door de ETF aanvraag van Grayscale. Deze ontwikkeling laat zien dat Dogecoin een positie heeft als legitieme digitale asset. Hierdoor is deze meme coin het zeker waard om te worden opgenomen in institutionele portfolio’s. DOGE-transacties worden ondersteund door grote betalingsverwerkers, detailhandelaren en zelfs door sommige institutionele beleggers. Ook krijgt de DOGE token steun van beroemdheden en aandacht in populaire media, wat voor nieuwe projecten een lastige prestatie is om te bereiken. Daarnaast blijft DOGE in het publieke bewustzijn door Elon Musk en door de gesprekken die gevoerd worden vor de integratie van DOGE op verschillende platformen. Verder heeft DOGE, ondanks de bredere marktvolatiliteit, toch een belangrijk supportniveau weten vast te houden. De daling van 69% onder de ATH zorgt ook weer voor goede instapkansen voor investeerders die graag betrokken willen zijn bij de infrastructuur van deze meme coin. PEPENODE: Vroegefase kans met bewezen fractie PEPENODE biedt een aantrekkelijke kans binnen de meme coin wereld, want dit project is nu in presale met een tokenprijs van $ 0.0010202 per stuk. Deze presale heeft op dit moment al meer dan $ 270.000 opgehaald. Ook zijn er tijdens de presale maar liefst 165 miljoen tokens vastgezet in staking-contracten. De stakingbeloningen zijn op dit moment 4754%. Het onderscheidende vermogen van PEPENODE is de unieke gaming-utility. Hierdoor heeft het project meer te bieden dan de pure speculatie die de meme coin sector momenteel nog domineert. Daarnaast biedt PEPENODE een virtueel miningconcept. Dit creëert voortdurende betrokkenheid die verder gaat dan koersstijgingen. Het doel is om een sterke user base te bouwen, die er uiteindelijk voor zorgt dat de waarde van het project groeit op de lange termijn. Je kunt met PEPENODE de bouw van een virtuele meme coin mining-rig simuleren. Hiervoor koop je nodes als basiscomponenten die je vervolgens combineert om grotere serverruimtes of mining- opstellingen te bouwen. Daarnaast is er een roadmap met vier fasen waarin ambitieuze plannen staan vastgesteld. Het doel is om gevestigde meme coins, zoals PEPE en Fartcoin, te kunnen integreren als beloningen. Verder genieten vroege PEPENODE investeerders van vele voordelen. Denk hierbij aan betere tokenprijzen, hogere stakingbeloningen en voorrang bij toegang tot gamingfuncties. Met deze voordelen worden de risico’s in projectontwikkeling voor vroege investeerders gecompenseerd, en het helpt om de community op te bouwen. Hoe je deelneemt aan de PEPENODE presale Zowel Shiba Inu als Dogecoin bieden institutionele kwaliteit met veelbelovende koersdoelen van analisten, waardoor ze beide kans hebben op mogelijke ETF-goedkeuringen. Ook hebben de tokens posities met een lager risico, en een aanzienlijk opwaarts potentieel ten opzichte van de lagere niveaus van dit moment. Naast deze gevestige posities is er nu dus ook PEPENODE. Het risico is hoger, maar daardoor kunnen de winsten ook hoger uitvallen. De gaming-functionaliteit en stakingbeloningen van PEPENODE creëren mogelijkheden om inkomsten te genereren, die pure speculatietokens niet kunnen bieden. Nu de institutionele interesse groeit, is de timing perfect. Projecten met utility trekken daarnaast steeds meer investeerders aan. Hierdoor kan 2025 zeker het jaar zijn waarin meme coins de overstap maken van pure speculatie naar legitieme assets met meetbare waardecreatie. Om deel te nemen aan de presale kun je elke ondersteunde wallet koppelen aan PEPENODE. Koop tokens met crypto of met je bankkaart via het officiële presale platform.

Euro, gold, and RMB, when will the "second half" of stablecoins come?

Euro, gold, and RMB, when will the "second half" of stablecoins come?

Author: Bulu said If someone asks you, have you ever used stablecoin? The first things that come to your mind are likely USDT and USDC - these stablecoins pegged to the US dollar have almost become synonymous with "stablecoins." But what if the other party is referring to the Euro stablecoin, the Gold stablecoin, or even the recently rumored RMB stablecoin? This actually reveals the true portrayal of the current stablecoin market: although the US dollar is the only dominant currency, the world of stablecoins is far more diverse than imagined: They are not trying to challenge the status of the US dollar, but rather serve differentiated needs - some people hope to use euro stablecoins to avoid exchange rate fluctuations, some prefer gold stablecoins as safe-haven assets, and some expect RMB stablecoins to become a bridge for cross-border payments. In other words, stablecoins are moving from a single dollar narrative to a more complex global multi-narrative. Why should we care about non-USD stablecoins? If stablecoins are the "blood" of the crypto world, then the US dollar stablecoin is the core of this system. Over the past five years, USDT and USDC have consistently ranked first and second in the market, almost monopolizing the trading, clearing and payment links: According to Coingecko data, the combined market value of the two accounts for more than 90% of the total size of stablecoins. Their status even exceeds the actual share of the US dollar in the global trade system, and they are in an undisputed dominant position. Source: Coingecko But the demand for stablecoins goes far beyond “dollarization.” In Europe, daily payments, savings and accounting systems are denominated in euros, and users holding US dollar stablecoins often need to bear additional exchange rate fluctuations; in the Middle East or Southeast Asian markets, although the US dollar is still the dominant currency for international settlements, local residents also have the need to anchor their funds in their local currency or other safe-haven assets; and at the macro level, trends such as de-dollarization, regional currency unions, and the financialization of energy and resources have further boosted the exploration of "non-US dollar-anchored" stablecoins. In other words, the reason we are discussing non-USD stablecoins today is not because there is a problem with USD stablecoins, but because the demands of the real world and crypto finance are themselves becoming diversified. These differentiated demands constitute the market foundation of non-USD stablecoins. Based on the market practice that "stablecoins are no longer a tool that can be summarized by a unified narrative, and their use varies from person to person and from need to need," imToken also divides stablecoins into multiple explorable subsets (further reading: "Stablecoin Worldview: How to Build a Stablecoin Classification Framework from a User Perspective?"). According to imToken’s stablecoin classification method, the current non-USD stablecoins (based on actual issuance and circulation) mainly include euro stablecoins and gold stablecoins. Source: Non-USD stablecoins from imToken Web (web.token.im) Main types of non-USD stablecoins In the landscape of non-US dollar stablecoins, the most realistic representative is the euro stablecoin. Currently, the more mainstream products on the market include EURC launched by Circle and EURS launched by Stasis. Both are pegged to the euro at a 1:1 ratio and are backed by reserves from regulated financial institutions. The target audience of this type of stablecoin is not global crypto trading users, but local European users. To give an intuitive example, if a German investor uses USDT as a transaction medium, then every exchange from fiat currency to US dollar stablecoin will require bearing the euro-dollar exchange rate risk. However, if the euro stablecoin is used directly, transactions and settlements can be completed on the chain, completely avoiding exchange rate losses. As regulatory frameworks such as the EU MiCA are gradually implemented, the compliance and application scenarios of the euro stablecoin have become clearer. This means that in the future, the euro stablecoin is expected to become the local mainstream currency mapping of European crypto finance. Although its current market value is still far smaller than that of the US dollar stablecoin, its growth curve is clearly driven by policy dividends and has the possibility of long-term penetration. Source: Circle Different from the logic of the euro stablecoin, which is based on local settlement convenience, another representative non-US dollar stablecoin is the gold stablecoin. Gold has been the "value anchor" of the global financial system since ancient times. Even though the US dollar has been decoupled from the gold standard for more than half a century, central banks around the world still regard gold as a core foreign exchange reserve. In the field of encryption, this traditional safe-haven asset has also been moved onto the chain through tokenization. Typical representatives are PAX Gold (PAXG) and Tether Gold (XAU₮). Their mechanism is relatively intuitive. Each token corresponds to one ounce of physical gold and is kept by a custodian institution (such as a vault in London or Switzerland). Users can transfer these tokens freely between wallets like holding USDT, use them as collateral to participate in lending or yield farming in DeFi protocols, and withdraw physical gold through the redemption mechanism. In this way, the traditional safe-haven properties of gold can be combined with the high liquidity of the blockchain. Therefore, compared with physical gold bars or gold ETFs, the biggest innovation of gold stablecoins lies in "divisibility and liquidity". Traditional gold is often measured in grams and ounces, making it difficult to divide in small amounts; and although gold ETFs are easy to trade, they rely on financial market settlement. Gold stablecoins break through these limitations - they can represent real hard assets and can be quickly transferred and split on the chain in the form of tokens, greatly lowering the transaction threshold. Of course, it is not without flaws. The price of gold itself will fluctuate due to the global economy, interest rate environment and geopolitical risks. Therefore, the gold stablecoin does not have the almost absolute price stability like the US dollar stablecoin. However, for those who want to seek diversified storage of value on the chain, it provides a configuration option that is closer to hard assets. Overall, the euro-denominated stablecoin and the gold-based stablecoin represent two distinct logics within the non-USD stablecoin landscape: the former emphasizes the local convenience and regulatory compliance of regional currencies, while the latter emphasizes the digitization and increased liquidity of traditional safe-haven assets. Together, they are driving the stablecoin narrative from a singular "dollar hegemony" to a diversified global monetary ecosystem. Where is the future of non-US dollar stablecoins? From a macro perspective, the rise of non-US dollar stablecoins will not weaken the dominant position of US dollar stablecoins in the short term. After all, whether it is the global settlement of crypto transactions or the liquidity support of cross-border clearing, the position of the US dollar is deeply rooted. But this does not mean that non-US dollar stablecoins are meaningless. They are more like a supplement and expansion of the existing pattern, exploring new options for multi-currency anchoring outside the US dollar-dominated financial order. Taking the euro stablecoin as an example, its value lies in reducing exchange rate friction for European users. With the implementation of regulatory policies such as MiCA, it is expected to become the cornerstone of regional digital finance. The gold stablecoin, by combining traditional safe-haven assets with blockchain liquidity, provides investors with a new tool that combines value storage and flexibility. In addition, the RMB stablecoin that has been reported in the past two days is also gradually entering the crypto context. Although it has not yet formed large-scale circulation, it has the dual driving forces of policy promotion and actual demand in cross-border settlement and regional trade settlement. Once combined with compliant on-chain financial infrastructure, the RMB stablecoin is likely to become an important bargaining chip under the "de-dollarization" issue. However, non-USD stablecoins also face limitations: The first is insufficient liquidity. Compared with the hundreds of billions of USDT and USDC, the market capitalization of non-USD stablecoins is generally limited, resulting in insufficient depth and acceptance in the secondary market. Secondly, their application scenarios are limited. Euro stablecoins are more limited to Europe, gold stablecoins tend to store value, and RMB stablecoins are constrained by policy windows and compliance environments. This means that it is difficult for them to become a global currency like the US dollar stablecoin. But from a long-term perspective, the story of stablecoins is gradually moving towards "multipolarization". US dollar stablecoins will still be the backbone of crypto finance, while anchored assets such as the euro, renminbi, and gold will fill market demand in their respective dimensions. They may not be able to replace the US dollar, but they are constantly expanding the boundaries of stablecoins and reshaping the structure and level of the entire ecosystem. The future of stablecoins may not be the victory of a certain currency, but a pattern in which multiple anchored assets coexist and complement each other. The US dollar stablecoin is the starting point, but it is by no means the end point.

JPMorgan’s Ethereum Report: “Will ETH Price Continue to Rise?”

JPMorgan’s Ethereum Report: “Will ETH Price Continue to Rise?”

The post JPMorgan’s Ethereum Report: “Will ETH Price Continue to Rise?” appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin (BTC), Etheruem (eth) and altcoins have been experiencing a correction in recent days. At this point, Bitcoin fell to $112,000 after reaching a new ATH of $124,000 last week, while Etheruem, which was said to reach a new ATH, fell from $4,800 to $4,000. While expectations for a new ATH for Ethereum are still ongoing, the ETH report came from US banking giant JPMorgan. According to Coindesk, JPMorgan analysts said that the increase in both ETFs and corporate treasuries could further push the price of Ethereum. To this point, JPMorgan analysts said Ethereum was outperforming Bitcoin, supported by strong inflows into spot Ethereum ETFs and rising corporate treasury allocations. Analysts noted that spot Etheruem ETFs attracted $5.4 billion in capital in July, matching Bitcoin ETFs. However, Bitcoin funds have seen modest outflows since then, while ETH ETFs continue to attract capital, they noted. JPMorgan stated that demand for Ethereum from companies and ETFs will continue to grow in the coming period. The SEC’s recent declaration that “liquid staking” for cryptocurrencies does not violate securities laws is a key factor in this. “The SEC has signaled that liquid staking tokens may not be classified as securities, easing concerns from institutional investors.” The bank added that the SEC’s approval of in-kind redemptions for ETH ETFs is expected to reduce costs, increase liquidity, and further strengthen Ethereum’s position against Bitcoin. *This is not investment advice.

JPMorgan Chase's Big Analysis: Four Factors That Make Ethereum Outperform Bitcoin

JPMorgan Chase's Big Analysis: Four Factors That Make Ethereum Outperform Bitcoin

By BitpushNews Over the past few weeks, a noteworthy trend has emerged in the crypto markets: Ethereum (ETH) has significantly outperformed Bitcoin (BTC). According to a recent JPMorgan research report, Wall Street analysts attribute this phenomenon to four key factors: optimized ETF structures, increased holdings by corporate finance departments, a softening of regulatory stances, and the potential liberalization of staking functionality. These factors not only explain Ethereum's recent strength but also suggest further potential for future growth. 1. Market Background: Dual Drive from Policies and Capital Flows In July, the US Congress passed the GENIUS Act, a stablecoin bill that brought unprecedented institutional benefits to the crypto market. Subsequently, Ethereum spot ETFs attracted a record $5.4 billion in inflows in July alone, almost matching the inflows of Bitcoin ETFs. However, in August, Bitcoin ETFs experienced a small outflow of funds, while Ethereum ETFs continued to see a net inflow of funds. This divergence in capital flows became the direct trigger for Ethereum to outperform Bitcoin. Meanwhile, the market awaits the upcoming September vote on the Crypto Market Structure Act. Investors widely anticipate this will mark another major turning point, similar to the stablecoin legislation. Driven by both policy and market expectations, Ethereum's position in the capital market is rapidly rising. 2. Analysis of four major factors: Why does Ethereum outperform Bitcoin? JPMorgan analyst Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou and his team clearly pointed out in the report that Ethereum's strength comes from the following four core driving factors: 1. Potential opening of staking functionality Currently, a major feature of the Ethereum ecosystem is its Proof-of-Stake (PoS) staking mechanism. Users need at least 32 ETH to run their own validator node, but this threshold is relatively high for most institutional and retail investors. If the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) ultimately approves staking for spot Ethereum ETFs, fund managers could generate additional returns for holders without requiring investors to run their own nodes. This would transform spot ETH ETFs into more than just price tracking tools, transforming them into passive investment products with income. This is fundamentally different from Bitcoin's spot ETF: Bitcoin itself does not have a native income mechanism, while Ethereum ETF may come with its own "interest" in the future, which obviously increases its market appeal. 2. Increased holdings and application by corporate finance departments JPMorgan Chase pointed out that currently about 10 listed companies have included Ethereum in their balance sheets, accounting for about 2.3% of the total circulation. What’s more noteworthy is that some companies are not just “buying and holding” but are further participating in the ecosystem: Run a verification node: directly obtain staking rewards. Adopt a liquidity staking or DeFi strategy: invest ETH in derivative protocols to earn additional returns. This means that Ethereum is gradually evolving from a "speculative asset" to a "sustainable asset allocation tool for enterprises." This trend is exactly what Bitcoin has not yet fully achieved. The involvement of corporate finance departments represents the entry of a more long-term and stable capital pool, and also enhances the market's valuation anchor for Ethereum. 3. Regulators soften their stance on liquidity staking tokens Previously, the SEC has always had disputes over the compliance of liquidity staking tokens (LSTs) such as Lido and Rocket Pool. The market is worried that these tokens will be identified as securities, thereby affecting the participation of large-scale institutions. However, the latest development is that the SEC staff has issued a clarifying opinion that "it may not be considered a security." Although formal legislation has not yet been enacted, this statement has greatly alleviated institutional concerns. In this context, institutional funds that were originally on the sidelines regarding compliance may enter the Ethereum staking and related derivatives markets faster and on a larger scale. 4. Optimization of ETF redemption mechanism: Approval of in-kind redemption The SEC recently approved a physical redemption mechanism for spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. This means that when institutional investors redeem ETF shares, they no longer have to go through the cumbersome process of first selling the ETF for cash. Instead, they can directly withdraw the equivalent amount of Bitcoin or Ethereum. This mechanism brings three major benefits: Improve efficiency: save time and costs. Enhanced liquidity: ETFs are directly linked to the spot market. Reduce selling pressure: Avoid triggering market sell-offs when large-scale redemptions occur. This system is also beneficial for Bitcoin and Ethereum, but because Ethereum accounts for a relatively low proportion of corporate and institutional holdings, it means there is greater room for future growth and the marginal effect is more significant. 3. Future Outlook: Has Ethereum’s potential surpassed Bitcoin? JPMorgan Chase pointed out in the report that although Bitcoin remains the leading "store of value" in the crypto market, Ethereum has greater room for growth: ETF adoption: The funding scale of ETH ETF is still lower than that of BTC, but as the staking function is liberalized, it is expected to attract more long-term funds. Corporate adoption: Bitcoin has long been held by a large number of companies and institutions, while Ethereum is still in its infancy and has huge room for future growth. DeFi and application ecology: Ethereum is not only a digital asset, but also carries applications such as decentralized finance (DeFi), NFT, stablecoins, AI+ on-chain computing, and thus has richer usage scenarios. In other words, Bitcoin is more like "digital gold", while Ethereum is evolving into "the infrastructure of the digital economy." IV. Conclusion JPMorgan's analysis reveals a key logic: Ethereum's strength is not driven by short-term speculation, but is based on the cumulative effect of four factors: favorable policies, structural optimization, institutional adoption and potential returns. With the further improvement of the ETF mechanism, the continued increase in holdings by corporate finance departments, and the possible future policy confirmation of the SEC, Ethereum is expected to gradually narrow or even surpass Bitcoin's advantages in the future market landscape. For investors, this trend is not only a signal of capital flow, but may also mean the turning point of the entire crypto market from "single value storage" to "multi-dimensional application ecology." In this new chapter in the history of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin may still be “digital gold,” but Ethereum is rapidly growing into the “heart of the digital economy.”
