Gate Ventures: Oil Breaks $100 as Inflation Exceeds Expectations, Risk Assets Under Broad Pressure

Odaily News: According to Gate Ventures' latest weekly report, last week's escalation of geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East combined with U.S. core inflation exceeding expectations significantly heightened global market volatility. Brent crude and WTI crude surged 8.33% and 9.36% respectively, returning above $100 per barrel; U.S. August core CPI rose 0.29% month-over-month, higher than expected, pushing the 10-year Treasury yield to 4.97%, with market-implied probability of a September rate hike rising to approximately 86%; spot gold fell 1.82% to $4,349.42 per ounce. U.S. stock indices — the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones — declined 0.80%, 0.66%, and 1.57% respectively; the crypto market weakened in tandem, with BTC and ETH dropping 4.4% and 1.5% respectively. Spot BTC ETFs saw net outflows of $462.7 million, while ETH ETFs recorded net inflows of $197.1 million. The fear index dropped from 71 to 57, indicating a cooling of market sentiment.On the industry front, India launched a $107 million tokenized corporate bond pilot program, further advancing institutional-grade RWA tokenization; Gemini obtained a Major Payment Institution (MPI) license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, further expanding its regulatory footprint in the Asia-Pacific region; and the Philippine central bank plans to suspend new payment system operator registrations for 12 months, tightening oversight of VASP-related payment activities.On the funding side, a total of 9 financing deals were completed last week, with disclosed total funding reaching $158.4 million, down 88% quarter-over-quarter.

Analyst: Bitcoin long-term holder SOPR rebounds above 1, market shifts from weak to neutral

CryptoQuant analyst CW8900 noted that the Bitcoin long-term holder spent output profit ratio (LTH SOPR) has risen above 1, signaling a shift in the market from a bearish phase to a neutral state. Historically, when this metric rises above 6, it typically corresponds to concentrated profit-taking by long-term holders and cycle peak zones. During the current cycle, the metric has yet to break through 6. Long-term holder coin balances remain at historical highs and have been steadily accumulating, indicating that a large-scale profit-taking phase has not yet materialized.

Over 20 Billion WLFI Tokens Transferred to New Vesting Contract, Trump and Other Founders Gain Future Unlock Path

According to Bitcoin News monitoring, The Washington Sun reported that Trump and other World Liberty Financial founders appear to have transferred over 20 billion WLFI tokens into a new vesting contract, replacing the previous indefinite lock-up arrangement and setting a path for future liquidity. On May 19, four wallets simultaneously transferred their holdings into this contract. One allocation matched Trump's disclosed holdings, while the other three allocations are believed to correspond to his family members' holdings. Under governance rules passed in May, founders could choose to continue the indefinite lock-up or adopt a new schedule: burn 10% of their allocation, undergo a two-year lock-up period, and then gradually unlock the remaining tokens over three years. These tokens cannot currently be sold. World Liberty Financial denies that these transfers are preparations for a sale.

Chuck Schumer Convenes Senate Democratic Caucus to Discuss Fate of CLARITY Act

Odaily News: U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has convened the Senate Democratic caucus for a Sunday evening meeting to discuss the new text of the CLARITY Act that Republican senators circulated on Thursday. The text contains more than 100 amendments reportedly proposed by Democrats.The Senate will vote on Tuesday on whether to advance the bill through cloture, or to abandon the effort altogether. Democrats remain divided internally over ethics provisions, and community banks also oppose the stablecoin yield-related rules. Most Democratic senators are expected to vote against it.U.S. President Donald Trump discussed new wording on the ethics provisions with advisers on Friday, as Democrats demand that public officials divest their existing crypto assets. If all 53 Republican senators support the bill, it would need at least 7 Democratic senators to agree to proceed to debate on Tuesday; some Republican senators also oppose the current stablecoin yield provisions.

Analyst: Bitcoin Hasn't Hit a New High in Nearly a Year, but Cycle High Intervals Keep Shortening

Odaily reports: Analyst Darkfost posted on X platform that Bitcoin is about to enter a phase of 365 days without setting a new all-time high (ATH). In previous cycles, Bitcoin typically set new highs shortly after halving, but this pattern appears to be changing. Meanwhile, the time interval from each cycle's peak to the next all-time high is also shortening: 1,180 days from 2014 to 2017, 1,094 days from 2017 to 2020, and 849 days from 2021 to 2024. Darkfost believes that if this trend continues, Bitcoin may reach a new all-time high more quickly this cycle. The next Bitcoin halving is expected to occur around April 2028.

Analyst: Long-Term Holder Activity Edges Up Slightly, Overall Activity in 2026 Remains Fairly Quiet

Odaily News: According to Darkfost monitoring, this cycle may be the most active one for Bitcoin long-term holders. Related changes can be observed through the CDD heatmap, an indicator that tracks the number of days Bitcoin was held before being spent or transferred. Long-term holders moving Bitcoin is usually associated with an intent to sell. The increased activity among long-term holders in this cycle may be attributed to greater market liquidity brought by spot ETFs and companies building Bitcoin treasury reserves. However, a rise in CDD does not only appear at market tops; it may also reflect capitulation by some holders. Coinbase previously moved 800,000 BTC, a large portion of which had been held for more than 6 months. Such asset migrations can also cause a short-term spike in CDD, but they are sporadic events. Currently, with Bitcoin's recent rally, long-term holder activity has increased slightly, possibly because some holders are looking to take quick profits; but overall, related activity in 2026 remains fairly quiet, with long-term holders still waiting.

Zcash mining rewards per solo machine are about 2x Bitcoin's, with roughly 4x higher reward per unit of electricity

Odaily News: Crypto asset management firm Grayscale estimates that Zcash mining rigs generate daily mining rewards roughly 2x those of Bitcoin mining rigs, and about 4x on a per-unit-of-electricity basis. Zcash mining activity has grown to more than 2.5x its level at the start of the year.Zach Pandl, head of research at Grayscale, said that at current valuations, Zcash mining profitability is relatively high, as token price gains have driven up mining rewards and encouraged more hash rate to join. Grayscale believes that more hash rate can support network security.The comparison uses the Bitmain S23 Hydro and Bitmain Z15 Pro as samples, assuming an electricity price of $0.05 per kilowatt-hour, full-load operation, and excluding transaction fees. Pool fees, cooling, other operating expenses, and equipment costs are not included in the calculation, and actual profitability is still affected by these factors.Bitcoin miners' total daily rewards are about $35 million, higher than Zcash's roughly $2 million. Grayscale's Zcash investment product assets under management surpassed $500 million on September 8 and recorded more than $70 million in cumulative external inflows. (Bitcoin.com News)
