The Avalanche Foundation is in serious discussions to raise almost $1 billion to generate two U.S.-based cryptocurrency‑treasury (or “stacking”) vehicles. Its goal is to reinforce its place in the capital markets and support demand for its own coin, AVAX. The foundation is in discussion with the investors regarding these digital asset treasury and accumulation projects.

Avalanche seeks capital via treasury deals

These crypto‑treasury vehicles are planned to act like institutional investment vehicles, obtaining large amounts of AVAX. Which was bought directly from the Avalanche Foundation at deducted rates and clasping these tokens in reserve. The plan has 2 different deals, both targeting almost $500 million.

One deal is planned to be led by Hivemind Capital as a private investment. The other deal is suggested to take the form of a SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company) endorsed by Dragonfly Capital. The foundation is hoping to close both these deals in the coming weeks.

Push to rival top blockchains

The foundation’s suggested move emerges between a larger trend of blockchain projects looking to imitate what competitors like Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) have attained. That is the considerable token price admiration through strong treasury schemes. Reportedly, AVAX has lagged in performance compared to some peers, and this new attempt is a correction for that performance issue.

AVAX, at the time of writing, is trading at $28.95 (1.46%). The coin has a market cap of $12.21 billion and a volume of $1.47 billion. Avalanche’s thought to raise $1B for stacking/treasury vehicles is bold because all this is done to increase the bid on the coin and to attract institutional demand. This can also make AVAX enter into cut cut-throat environment of layer 1 blockchain.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
