BTC Leverage Builds Near $120K, Big Test Ahead

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. Heatmap charts back this up, showing dense liquidity bands in that zone. Such clusters of orders often act as magnets for price action, as markets tend to move where liquidity is stacked. Price Action Around the POI Analysis from JoelXBT highlights how Bitcoin tapped into a key point of interest (POI) during the recent FOMC-driven spike. This move coincided with what was called the “zone of max delta pain”, a level where aggressive volume left imbalances in order flow. Source: JoelXBT /X Following the test of this area, BTC faced rejection and began to pull back. Delta indicators revealed extended divergences, with price rising while buyer strength weakened. 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. Market Outlook Bitcoin’s next decisive move will likely form around the…
Grayscale’s GDLC Fund Holding SOL and ADA Gets SEC Nod for NYSE Debut

Grayscale’s GDLC Fund Holding SOL and ADA Gets SEC Nod for NYSE Debut

The post Grayscale’s GDLC Fund Holding SOL and ADA Gets SEC Nod for NYSE Debut appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) gets greenlight to list and trade by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The fund holding Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) was approved a few months ago, but the commission held back its listing. Grayscale’s GDLC With SOL and ADA to List on NYSE Arca US SEC approves the listing and trading of Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC), holding the top 5 crypto assets, on NYSE Arca, according to an official announcement by SEC on September 17. The approval enables investors to get exposure to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) via the regulated offering. The fund is expected to list and trade on NYSE Arca this month. Bitcoin makes up over 72% of the fund’s holdings. Ethereum follows with over 17% weightage, while XRP, Solana, and Cardano each have smaller allocations of 5.62%, 4.03%, and 1%, respectively. Recently, the fund reduced its BTC weightage to increase allocation in ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA. Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) Holdings. Source: Grayscale ETF expert Nate Geraci hailed Grayscale for laying the groundwork for crypto ETFs with its lawsuit, pushing Gary Gensler-era SEC to approve spot ETFs. This paves the way for future multi-asset crypto ETFs. It’s noteworthy the Crypto ETF Rule leans heavily on whether an asset has futures contract trading on surveilled/regulated venue. Ties into crux of Grayscale lawsuit. In July, the SEC put a stay order on Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, citing the need to review the delegated action. This came just a day after the SEC approved the GDLC, delaying its listing and trading on NYSE Arca.

In addition to interest rate cuts, crypto ETPs have made significant progress

In addition to interest rate cuts, crypto ETPs have made significant progress

On September 17th local time, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) "accelerated approval" of the Generic Listing Standards for cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs), paving the way for related products to enter public issuance and trading. I. Universal Listing Standards: From “Case-by-Case Approval” to “One-Click Listing” Previously, listing a crypto ETP was a lengthy, expensive, and high-risk process. Issuers were required to submit a special application for each new asset, demonstrating sufficient market liquidity and immunity from manipulation. The SEC review process could take as long as 240 or even 270 days. The impact of universal listing standards is revolutionary: Simplified and accelerated process: As long as ETPs meet certain requirements clearly defined by the SEC, their approval will be virtually guaranteed, and the process time will be significantly reduced to 75 days or less. This will allow compliant crypto ETPs (Exchange Traded Products) to be listed and traded without the need for Form 19b-4. Exchange Options: Most industry proposals suggest that universal listing standards should require that the underlying asset must have a futures contract traded on a regulated U.S. futures exchange. Eligible exchanges include CME, Cboe, and potentially even Coinbase Derivatives Exchange and Bitnomial. The first beneficiaries: The SEC has approved the exchange listing standards and quickly approved the trading of Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (mainly holding BTC, ETH, etc.). Explosive Product Growth: History Repeats Itself Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise, predicts that universal listing standards will trigger an explosion in the number of crypto ETPs, and history supports this view: Precedent for Traditional ETFs: Immediately after the SEC passed “Rule on ETFs” in late 2019, creating common standards for stock and bond ETPs, the rate of new ETF launches more than tripled, soaring from an average of 117 per year to 370 per year. Crypto Market Expectations: We anticipate a similar expansion in the crypto ETP sector. Altcoins eligible for futures contracts, such as Solana, XRP, Chainlink, Cardano, Avalanche, and Polkadot, will all see ETPs, attracting a significant number of traditional asset management firms to enter the space. 3. Double Macro Positives: The Superposition of Interest Rate Cuts and the ETP Wave The regulatory breakthrough for ETPs comes at a time when US macroeconomic policy is shifting: Fed Shift: The Fed announced an interest rate cut on the same day, with Powell calling it a "risk-management cut" and explicitly stating that the labor market "does not need to soften further." This marks a shift in the Fed's policy focus from controlling inflation to protecting employment, and is expected to usher in a cycle of interest rate cuts amidst ample liquidity. Liquidity and channels: The interest rate cut cycle will release more capital to flow into risky assets; and the ETP universal standard provides the most convenient channel to access this capital. IV. Impact on Cryptoasset Prices Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, said in his report that the existence of ETPs itself does not guarantee capital inflows, but it prepares the asset for a "breakout." Unlocking Traditional Capital: The vast majority of the world's capital is controlled by traditional investors. With ETPs, these investors can easily allocate crypto assets through their brokerage accounts without having to deal with complex wallets and private keys. Reduced Mystique: ETPs transform cryptocurrencies from "geek-only, unfamiliar tokens" into trusted stock tickers. This lowers the barrier to entry and intimidation for average investors, making it easier to connect Chainlink with applications like Mastercard partnerships and stablecoins. Capital Reservoir: ETPs are like a massive capital reservoir for assets. Once the fundamentals of an asset (e.g., Solana activity, Ethereum ecosystem development) begin to improve, capital will flow in at a rapid pace and on a massive scale, triggering rapid price increases. In short, with the removal of SEC regulatory barriers and the start of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut cycle, this "ETP explosion" will completely release suppressed crypto capital and innovation, and accelerate the mainstreaming of cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin Steady as Fed Cuts Interest Rates for First Time Since December

Bitcoin Steady as Fed Cuts Interest Rates for First Time Since December

The post Bitcoin Steady as Fed Cuts Interest Rates for First Time Since December appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief The Federal Reserve had kept interest rates unchanged since last December. U.S. President Donald Trump has been hammering the Fed to cut rates. Crypto and other assets typically benefit from rate cuts that increase financial liquidity. The U.S. central bank, as widely expected, cut the federal funds rate by 0.25% Wednesday, amid recent signs that the economy was faltering and needed a boost—and under relentless pressure from President Donald Trump. Bitcoin and other major digital assets traded largely flat  in the immediate aftermath. The largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization was recently changing hands just above $116,000, up 0.2% over the past hour hours, according to crypto markets data provider CoinGecko. BTC rallied in recent days with investors possibly pricing in the anticipated decision. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market value, was trading at $4,501, flat over the same period. The Fed slashed the interest rate to a range between 4% and 4.25% after a downward revision in a Department of Labor report showing that the U.S had created 911,000 fewer jobs than initially reported for a year-long period ending in March, and other concerning economic signs. “Uncertainty about the economic outlook remains elevated,” the Fed noted in a statement. Those concerns outweighed the threat of inflation, which has risen to 2.9% on an annual basis, stubbornly above the bank’s longstanding 2% goal. Newly sworn-in governor Stephen Miran, a White House appointee, dissented from the decision, voting for a .50% rate cut. The Fed has a dual mission to keep inflation low and ensure full employment. In Telegram message to Decrypt, Noelle Acheson, the author of the Crypto Is Macro Now newsletter, wrote that the big deal wasn’t the expected rate cut but updated economic forecasts from Fed officials, showing that central bankers are “getting more nervous about the…
Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

The post Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Curve Finance has proposed a new protocol called Yield Basis that would share revenue directly with CRV holders, marking a shift from one-off incentives to sustainable income. Summary Curve Finance has put forward a revenue-sharing protocol to give CRV holders sustainable income beyond emissions and fees. The plan would mint $60M in crvUSD to seed three Bitcoin liquidity pools (WBTC, cbBTC, tBTC), with 35–65% of revenue distributed to veCRV stakers. The DAO vote runs from up to Sept. 24, with the proposal seen as a major step to strengthen CRV tokenomics after past liquidity and governance challenges. Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov has introduced a proposal to give CRV token holders a more direct way to earn income, launching a system called Yield Basis that aims to turn the governance token into a sustainable, yield-bearing asset.  The proposal has been published on the Curve DAO (CRV) governance forum, with voting open until Sept. 24. A new model for CRV rewards Yield Basis is designed to distribute transparent and consistent returns to CRV holders who lock their tokens for veCRV governance rights. Unlike past incentive programs, which relied heavily on airdrops and emissions, the protocol channels income from Bitcoin-focused liquidity pools directly back to token holders. To start, Curve would mint $60 million worth of crvUSD, its over-collateralized stablecoin, with proceeds allocated across three pools — WBTC, cbBTC, and tBTC — each capped at $10 million. 25% of Yield Basis tokens would be reserved for the Curve ecosystem, and between 35% and 65% of Yield Basis’s revenue would be given to veCRV holders. By emphasizing Bitcoin (BTC) liquidity and offering yields without the short-term loss risks associated with automated market makers, the protocol hopes to draw in professional traders and institutions. Context and potential impact on Curve Finance The proposal comes as Curve continues to modify…
