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.

Meet the Power Team Behind It!

The post Meet the Power Team Behind It! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Explore the leadership driving BlockDAG’s $381M presale. From fintech strategy to advanced engineering and academic depth, meet the team positioning this Layer 1 for a $0.05 launch! When it comes to blockchain, the spotlight often falls on the tech itself. But the reality is that people, not just protocols, decide a project’s fate. BlockDAG (BDAG), widely seen as one of the boldest Layer 1 launches of 2025, is proving that momentum comes from a combination of strong vision, execution, and credibility. Even before going live, BlockDAG has delivered numbers that turn heads: $381 million raised, 25 billion coins sold, 2.5 million users on its mobile mining app, and over 300 decentralized applications under development. Behind these results is a leadership team that blends fintech, engineering, and academic expertise, a mix that is setting the stage for one of the most ambitious rollouts of the year. Antony Turner’s Vision for Global Scale At the top is Antony Turner, founder and CEO, whose fintech and blockchain career has equipped him to guide BlockDAG’s rise. Formerly COO of Spirit Blockchain, a listed company, and the architect of one of Switzerland’s earliest equally weighted crypto index funds, Turner is known for building frameworks that scale. His leadership at BlockDAG has been about balancing bold ambition with credibility. Rather than relying on flashy hype, Turner has ensured the presale followed a steady path of growth backed by real-world visibility. That includes targeted partnerships, global sports sponsorships with Inter Milan and Seattle Orcas cricket, and consistent presale performance that now sits at $381M raised. By combining his entrepreneurial drive with experience in regulated financial environments, Turner has transformed BlockDAG from just another presale coin into a brand with international reach. His ability to align credibility with recognition has been central in building a foundation…

These Eight States Could See Aurora Borealis Sunday Night

The post These Eight States Could See Aurora Borealis Sunday Night appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The northern lights have a chance to appear for viewers Sunday night in the northern continental United States and Alaska, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicted, although activity would be limited to the northernmost states. The aurora borealis has a slight chance to appear in the Upper Midwest and Alaska. Getty Images Key Facts NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center forecasted a Kp index of three out of nine for Sunday evening, indicating the northern lights could “become brighter” and produce more “auroral activity (motion and formation).” Sunday night’s viewing line stretches as far south as central Minnesota, with a higher chance of seeing the lights higher in Canada and Alaska. There is a slight chance the Earth could experience minor geomagnetic storms Sunday evening, forecasters said, but put these chances at just 20%. Which States Could See The Aurora? The northern lights could be visible from some parts of the Upper Midwest, including North Dakota, the northern portion of Minnesota, far northern Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Parts of Montana are also within the view line, as well as small slivers of northern Idaho and extreme northeast Washington. Most of Alaska is within range to see the aurora. What’s The Best Way To View The Northern Lights? NOAA recommends viewers travel north toward the Earth’s magnetic north pole. Viewers hoping to catch a glimpse of the aurora should leave cities or other sources of bright lights and find a good vantage point for peak viewing hours, experts say. The aurora is typically most active between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. What To Watch For Similar conditions, which can create what NOAA calls a “quiet aurora,” could continue Monday night, according to the administration’s three-day geomagnetic forecast. The same general area will likely be within the view line Monday…
