PANews reported on October 8th that Bloomberg News reported that the Bank of England plans to exempt proposed limits on corporate stablecoin holdings, signaling a softening of its stance on crypto assets in the face of US competition. People familiar with the matter revealed that the Bank of England intends to exempt businesses, such as cryptocurrency exchanges, that need to hold large amounts of stablecoins. It also intends to allow businesses to use stablecoins for settlement in an experimental digital securities sandbox, suggesting a softening of Governor Andrew Bailey's previously skeptical stance. The Bank of England declined to comment. The digital payments industry is concerned that the UK will struggle to compete with the US Genius Act, and the Bank of England plans to impose limits on stablecoin holdings by individuals and businesses, with a consultation document expected to outline this before the end of the year. Bailey had previously dismissed both stablecoin and digital pound projects, and this exemption is seen as a significant shift.PANews reported on October 8th that Bloomberg News reported that the Bank of England plans to exempt proposed limits on corporate stablecoin holdings, signaling a softening of its stance on crypto assets in the face of US competition.

BTC Leverage Builds Near $120K, Big Test Ahead

The post BTC Leverage Builds Near $120K, Big Test Ahead appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: Heavy leverage builds at $118K–$120K, turning the zone into Bitcoin’s next critical resistance test. Rejection from point of interest with delta divergences suggests cooling momentum after the recent FOMC-driven spike. Support levels at $114K–$115K may attract buyers if BTC fails to break above $120K. BTC Leverage Builds Near $120K, Big Test Ahead Bitcoin was trading around $117,099, with daily volume close to $59.1 billion. The price has seen a marginal 0.01% gain over the past 24 hours and a 2% rise in the past week. Data shared by Killa points to heavy leverage building between $118,000 and $120,000.

That mismatch suggests demand failed to keep up with the pace of the rally, leaving room for short-term cooling. Resistance and Support Levels The $118K–$120K range now stands as a major resistance band. A clean move through $120K could force leveraged shorts to cover, potentially driving further upside. On the downside, smaller liquidity clusters are visible near $114K–$115K. If rejection holds at the top, these levels are likely to act as the first supports where buyers may attempt to step in.
