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.

HBAR Price Under Fire as Retail Exit Meets Institutional Pullback

The post HBAR Price Under Fire as Retail Exit Meets Institutional Pullback appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Hedera Hashgraph’s native token HBAR has extended its bearish streak, losing 12% of its value over the past 30 days.  As September begins, both on-chain and technical indicators point to further weakness, with little sign of recovery on the horizon. The question now is whether the altcoin can withstand growing bearish pressure or if a deeper decline is imminent. Sponsored Sponsored Retail Disinterest Meets Smart Money Retreat According to Santiment, HBAR’s social dominance has plummeted steadily over the past month, indicating the limited interest in the altcoin. It currently stands at 0.74%, noting a 55% dip in the past 30 days.  For token TA and market updates: Want more token insights like this?

When it climbs, it signals that the token is attracting greater attention and discussion.  Spikes like this usually precede rallies as more chatter around an asset tends to draw in new buyers and fuel upward momentum. Conversely, when it drops, the asset is fading from the broader market conversation. This decline reflects disinterest from retail traders, which can translate into lower demand for HBAR and reduced price support. Meanwhile, HBAR’s Smart Money Index (MSI) is also trending downward, indicating that key holders are reducing their exposure to the altcoin. At press time, this is at 1.108. HBAR SMI.

Coinbase’s New Index Brings Crypto Closer to You, Same as Best Wallet Token

Coinbase’s New Index Brings Crypto Closer to You, Same as Best Wallet Token

The post Coinbase’s New Index Brings Crypto Closer to You, Same as Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase will launch a new futures contract called Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures, which will track the US tech stocks and crypto ETFs simultaneously. The index is set for release on September 22 and contains 10 assets, each weighted at 10%. These include names like Apple, Microsoft, Meta, Tesla, Alphabet, and Nvidia. Source: Coinbase As each asset carries the same 10% weight, investors won’t be overexposed to one component over the others. However, the weights will fluctuate slightly between quarterly rebalances, which Coinbase will fix by resetting the values back to 10% every three months. The official release will likely leave a mark in the crypto sphere, with projects like Best Wallet Token ($BEST) set to gain a surge in attention. The First Mixed Derivative Exposing Investors to Crypto Innovation As Coinbase explains in its press release, the upcoming index exposes investors to a mixed market of equities and cryptos, which sets a precedent in the industry. The product creates a bridge between traditional and the more modern digital assets, opening the way forward for innovation and growth. This brings the performance and innovation power of transformative technologies from companies like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia, into the blockchain ecosystem, which pushes crypto into mainstream markets. MarketVector is the official index provider, which will also handle the balancing and maintenance aspect moving forward. The index seeks to open crypto assets to a new audience, bringing in more eyes on the crypto ecosystem and increasing investors’ confidence in these more exotic digital products. This comes as crypto adoption is on the rise, including in the banking sector, effectively catapulting crypto into the mainstream. Trump’s GENIUS Act contributes to that by offering a clearer and more transparent regulatory framework for stablecoin issuers to engage in. The Act aims to create a safer…

Apple, Nvidia, Amazon Among Mag 7 Exposure Coming to Coinbase

Apple, Nvidia, Amazon Among Mag 7 Exposure Coming to Coinbase

The post Apple, Nvidia, Amazon Among Mag 7 Exposure Coming to Coinbase appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase Derivatives said it will introduce a new type of equity index futures contract later this month, offering investors exposure to both leading U.S. technology stocks and cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in a single product. Launching Sept. 22, the Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures will be the first U.S.-listed derivatives contracts to combine traditional equities with digital assets, according to a blog post. The move, said the company, marks expansion beyond single-asset derivatives into multi-asset offerings designed to give investors thematic exposure to innovation and growth sectors. The new index includes ten components weighted equally at 10% each. It consists of the so-called “Magnificent 7” stocks — Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta and Tesla — along with Coinbase’s own stock and two crypto ETFs: BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). MarketVector, known for its crypto and thematic indexes, will serve as the official index provider. Contracts will be monthly and cash-settled, with each representing $1 multiplied by the index level. At an index value of $3,000, for example, the notional value of one contract would be $3,000. The index will be rebalanced quarterly to restore equal weighting across all components. Coinbase framed the product as a way for investors to manage multi-asset risk more efficiently while gaining exposure to both sides of the innovation economy — Silicon Valley tech leaders and blockchain-native assets. “Equity index futures mark the next evolution of our product suite and pave the way for a new era of multi-asset derivatives,” the company said in its announcement. The launch comes amid growing investor appetite for crossover products that bridge traditional finance and crypto markets. Coinbase said it plans to expand availability of the contracts to retail users in the months ahead, though they will initially trade on partner platforms. Source:…

Crypto.com CEO Predicts Strong Q4 if Fed Cuts Rates at September Meeting

Crypto.com CEO Predicts Strong Q4 if Fed Cuts Rates at September Meeting

Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek expects a strong fourth quarter for digital assets if the Federal Reserve (Fed) cuts interest rates at its September 17 meeting, citing improved market conditions and increased liquidity for risk assets. The prediction comes as CME futures markets price a 90% probability of rate cuts following Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s dovish speech at Jackson Hole, while crypto markets position for extended rallies amid anticipated monetary easing. In an interview with Bloomberg, Marszalek revealed that Crypto.com generated $1.5 billion in revenue last year, with $1 billion in gross profit, predicting better performance in 2025 driven by lower borrowing costs and increased institutional adoption. According to him, top investment banks have approached the exchange regarding a potential IPO, but it remains privately held, enjoying operational flexibility while maintaining a solid balance sheet. Private Exchange Teases IPO Amid Trump Media Partnership Marszalek confirmed Crypto.com “has the numbers” for a public listing after multiple approaches from leading investment banks, but emphasized no decisions have been made. The company reported $300 million in profitability last year after reinvesting $700 million, undoubtedly making it one of the most profitable crypto exchanges, considering public markets. The exchange announced a partnership with Trump Media and Technology Group on August 26, establishing a treasury strategy for its native Cronos token. The collaboration extends beyond treasury management to include ETF development, payments infrastructure, and subscription services as part of broader Trump administration crypto initiatives. Marszalek described the partnership as supporting the administration’s ambitious crypto agenda. He emphasized Crypto.com’s role in executing multibillion-dollar Bitcoin strategies and providing infrastructure for various crypto initiatives. The CEO addressed potential conflict of interest concerns by noting that Trump’s assets are held in blind trusts, while Crypto.com operates as an independent, publicly traded company. He stressed that the private company structure enables rapid decision-making and strategic partnerships supporting industry advancement. Crypto.com plans aggressive expansion into prediction markets, targeting sports betting and political events through CFTC-regulated infrastructure. Fed Rate Cut Optimism Drives Q4 Crypto Rally Expectations Powell’s Jackson Hole remarks triggered widespread forecast revisions, with Morgan Stanley, Barclays, BNP Paribas, and Deutsche Bank now expecting September rate cuts. The Fed Chair acknowledged labor market weakening, citing July’s disappointing 73,000 payroll additions and downward revisions to previous months. Earlier last month, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called for 50 basis point cuts following “incredible” inflation data, which is a shift from the Fed’s hawkish stance. July consumer price index rose 0.2% monthly and 2.7% annually, below expectations, while core CPI reached 3.1% yearly. However, market optimism faces potential headwinds from excessive social sentiment around rate cuts. Santiment has recently warned that discussion of “Fed,” “rate,” and “cut” across social platforms reached 11-month peaks, historically indicating euphoric levels that often precede local market tops. Bitcoin exchange supply accumulation presents concerning signals, with holdings rising approximately 70,000 coins since early June. The trend reverses sustained patterns of assets being moved into cold storage, potentially indicating increased preparation by holders for liquidation. The blockchain analytics firm cited that Ethereum’s technical indicators suggest caution, despite its strong price performance, with short-term MVRV nearing 15% and long-term readings at 58.5%. These levels historically correspond with profit-taking activity and potential retracements before further advances. Amid all these, the looming replacement of the Fed Chair has sparked some debates. European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde warned that Trump’s undermining of Fed independence would create “very serious danger” for the global economy. She emphasized that political control over monetary policy would have “very worrying” implications for global economic stability. Trump intensified criticism of Powell, demanding immediate rate cuts while threatening “major lawsuits” and accusing the Fed Chair of costing America “trillions in interest costs.” The president maintains tariffs haven’t caused inflation while implementing 40% duties on Brazil and 50% on copper imports. Notably, manufacturing PMI data could influence rate cut timing, with forecasts expecting ISM Manufacturing PMI at 48.9 versus the previous 48.0.Source: Trading Economics Analysts tie the direction of the crypto market to industrial strength, noting that levels below 49.5 could extend correction periods, while improvements support recovery narratives
