Although the Fed kept interest rates unchanged last night as expected, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s hawkish remarks caused sharp declines in Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins.

Bitcoin fell below $70,000, while Ethereum also dropped to around $2,100.

While other altcoins experienced significant losses, some altcoins, despite the correction, outperformed the market, leaving those expecting a decline wrong-footed.

Among the altcoins that outperformed BTC and most other altcoins were Dexe (DEXE), Quant (QNT), River (RIVER), Kaspa (KAS), and JUST (JST).

According to CoinMarketCap data, DEXE (13.05%), QNT (9.8%), RIVER (4.1%), KAS (3.9%), and JST (2.9%) were among the top-performing altcoins, outperforming the market.

According to Coinmarketcap data, the biggest losers in the last 24 hours are as follows: 1st place Mantle (MNT) with a 10.5% loss, 2nd place Worldcoin (WLD) with a 9.9% loss, 3rd place Bittensor (TAO) with an 8.9% loss, 4th place Zcash (ZEC) with a 7.5% loss, and 5th place RENDER with a 6.7% loss.

A popular analytics company that attempts to measure the emotional reflexes of cryptocurrency investors calculated a “fear and greed index” today with a score of 23 out of 100, indicating extreme fear. This index is calculated based on market volatility, market volume momentum, social media interest, Bitcoin dominance graph, and trends in online research related to cryptocurrencies.

IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge!

The post IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 18:00 Discover why BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet launch makes it the best crypto to buy today as Story (IP) price jumps to $11.75 and Hyperliquid hits new highs. Recent crypto market numbers show strength but also some limits. The Story (IP) price jump has been sharp, fueled by big buybacks and speculation, yet critics point out that revenue still lags far behind its valuation. The Hyperliquid (HYPE) price looks solid around the mid-$50s after a new all-time high, but questions remain about sustainability once the hype around USDH proposals cools down. So the obvious question is: why chase coins that are either stretched thin or at risk of retracing when you could back a network that’s already proving itself on the ground? That’s where BlockDAG comes in. While other chains are stuck dealing with validator congestion or outages, BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet will be stress-testing its EVM-compatible smart chain with real miners before listing. For anyone looking for the best crypto coin to buy, the choice between waiting on fixes or joining live progress feels like an easy one. BlockDAG: Smart Chain Running Before Launch Ethereum continues to wrestle with gas congestion, and Solana is still known for network freezes, yet BlockDAG is already showing a different picture. Its upcoming Awakening Testnet, set to launch on September 25, isn’t just a demo; it’s a live rollout where the chain’s base protocols are being stress-tested with miners connected globally. EVM compatibility is active, account abstraction is built in, and tools like updated vesting contracts and Stratum integration are already functional. Instead of waiting for fixes like other networks, BlockDAG is proving its infrastructure in real time. What makes this even more important is that the technology is operational before the coin even hits exchanges. That…
