DWF Labs: BTC and ETH ETFs See Net Inflows Exceeding $1 Billion for Third Consecutive Week, Spot Market Driving This Rally

Odaily News DWF Labs stated that last week, BTC and ETH ETFs recorded a combined net inflow of approximately $1.2 billion, marking the third consecutive week with inflows exceeding $1 billion — the first time since July 2025. Among this, BTC ETFs saw net inflows of around $987 million, with a single-day inflow of $731 million on September 3, ranking as the third highest this year. The AUM of BTC ETFs rose to $103.3 billion, accounting for approximately 6.32% of BTC's total supply.Meanwhile, open interest denominated in BTC dropped from 762,200 BTC in mid-August to 669,600 BTC. Over the same period, BTC climbed from around $63,000 to $80,000, indicating that the recent price movement has been driven more by spot capital flows rather than leverage.

QCP: US Employment Data Beats Expectations, Crypto Market Focus Shifts to Inflation and Fed Policy

Jiang Zhuo'er: Closed BTC shorts, restored full Ethereum spot position.

Jiang Zhuo'er of ViaBTC Pool stated that he previously opened a short position on BTC at $82,050 and has now closed it at $79,480 to take profit. He has since fully restored his spot Ethereum position, awaiting further upside. His trading rationale includes: current market sentiment is positive, with Ethereum rallying to $2,536 early this morning, nearing the previous high of $2,547; Ethereum acts as the engine of this bull cycle rather than a follower, and its leading gains may indicate that Bitcoin will follow. Additionally, spot ETFs continued to see inflows from September 3 to 4, with a record $730 million influx recorded on September 3. Until ETF flows reverse to sustained outflows, only short-term short positions are viable.

Coldcard Wave 3 Attacker Has Transferred Approximately 45% of Stolen Bitcoin

According to Galaxy Research, in the Coldcard wallet attack incident, the Wave 3 attacker has transferred approximately 45% of the stolen Bitcoin, with the related funds routed to Ethereum via THORChain or entering CoinJoin transactions to increase tracking difficulty. Galaxy stated that the attacker previously created 293 2-of-2 multisig vaults to hold victim funds, draining them from largest to smallest amount, and the funds in the 11 largest vaults have now been fully transferred out.

Analysts: Altcoin ETF demand is real, but has not yet formed a sustained trend.

Analyst Edgy from The DeFi Edge stated that Bitcoin ETFs attracted approximately $3.54 billion in August, while Ethereum ETFs drew in around $1.84 billion. During the trading week of August 24–28, SOL ETFs registered a net inflow of $142.7 million, XRP ETFs $110.5 million, and HYPE ETFs $56.8 million, totaling roughly $310 million, highlighting market demand beyond BTC and ETH. However, in the following week of August 31 to September 4, SOL’s net inflow plummeted to $4.9 million, HYPE dropped to $12.3 million, whereas Bitcoin ETFs continued to attract $987 million during the same period. Analysts noted that capital inflows into altcoin ETFs have yet to establish a sustained trend, and whether they can maintain steady absorption capacity over the next month remains a key metric to watch.

Approximately 45% of stolen assets have entered coin mixing or cross-chain paths, Coldcard attacker continues to move funds

Odaily News: The attacker behind the Coldcard "Wave 3" exploit continues to move stolen funds. In this phase, the attacker created 293 separate 2-of-2 multisig vaults for each victim's assets. On September 2, the first batch of funds was bridged to Ethereum via THORChain; the latest round of transfers has begun entering the CoinJoin mixing process.Currently, the Wave 3 attacker is processing the largest holdings in descending order by stolen amount, having already transferred vaults ranked 1 through 11 in sequence. The next 10 vaults yet to be transferred collectively hold 30.81 BTC, while vaults ranked 61 through 293 collectively hold 33.77 BTC.To date, the attacker has moved approximately 45% of the assets stolen in this exploit, with funds either flowing to Ethereum or entering CoinJoin mixing transactions. This latest transfer activity has also revealed a previously unknown vault: 58 addresses jointly spent funds via a 2-of-2 multisig setup in the same format as Wave 3, with the Wave 3 attacker subsequently routing them to a jump address that funds CoinJoin transactions.This vault is currently marked with "cause = open," but it is highly likely to belong to Coldcard victims as well, which could bring the total number of vaults involved in Wave 3 to 294 and push the previously disclosed total stolen in the Coldcard exploit to approximately 1,806 BTC. At present, roughly 82% of the stolen BTC remains in addresses initially controlled by the attacker, while approximately 18% has been moved, with fund flows suggesting it may be undergoing laundering.

Bankless founder sells all ETH, reallocates to ZEC and LIT, both significantly outperforming ETH

Odaily News DeFi researcher Ignas posted on X: "After David Hoffman (Bankless founder) sold his ETH, he reallocated his portfolio into some of the best-performing tokens, such as LIT and ZEC. NEAR also performed well, and only VVV underperformed the broader market. Although the market was full of fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) at the time, and it was also very close to the ETH bottom, the goal of aggressive crypto investors has always been to outperform BTC and ETH. Well done, David."Previously reported, Bankless co-founder David Hoffman announced in June this year that he had sold all his ETH and bought VVV, NEAR, ZEC, HYPE, and LIT.

Uniswap Founder Hayden: Correlated Trading Pairs Will Drive AMMs into Global Financial Markets

Odaily News Uniswap founder Hayden said on X that correlated trading pairs are emerging. The top five tokenized SPY trading pairs by volume are "bridge" pairs connecting other common base pairs, which then primarily link to highly correlated tokenized stocks. These markets are global, programmable, low-cost, and operate 24/7.Uniswap founder Hayden said on X:.I've been working at the frontier of DeFi for 9 years. It's a fascinating field with infinite depth and the potential to transform capital markets.I've always believed AMMs hold immense potential, but for the past decade, one question has persisted: Can this novel market structure truly become the core engine for all financial markets?After years of evolution and development, the path for AMMs to achieve global dominance is becoming increasingly clear. To explain this, we need to start in 1976.Tokenization Changes Market Makers.Index funds celebrated their 50th anniversary this month. When Jack Bogle launched the index fund in 1976, he hoped to raise $150 million but ultimately raised only $11.3 million. Competitors called it "Bogle's Folly," posting posters claiming index funds were un-American. They argued that a fund making no decisions couldn't possibly beat professionals paid to make decisions. Today, the majority of US fund assets are allocated to passive investment vehicles.I've been thinking about this recently because tokenization's "folly moment" is ending. The SEC has approved NASDAQ and the NYSE to trade tokenized stocks. DTCC, which handles virtually all US securities settlement, also conducted a live pilot of tokenized trades in July. Nearly all related activity is described the same way: treating tokenization as an infrastructure upgrade.The same markets, faster, cheaper, and always open. These statements are all true, but I believe the infrastructure upgrade framework obscures a larger change. Tokenization makes markets programmable, changing how markets exist, who makes markets, and what is traded.In 2018, I created Uniswap, an automated market maker protocol. Anyone can deposit two assets into a shared liquidity pool and earn fees from every trade, while prices adjust along a curve as users buy and sell. Uniswap has operated autonomously since its launch, processing over $4.6 trillion in cumulative volume and increasing DEX spot volume share from under 1% to over 20%.As AMMs like Uniswap continue to evolve, their liquidity has formed a pattern most financial markets haven't noticed yet: correlated trading pairs.The Easiest Place to Find Success.To succeed everywhere, you must first succeed somewhere. AMMs found product-market fit in long-tail markets because most assets previously couldn't attract professional market makers' attention. On Uniswap, anyone can create a market with a single transaction, and issuers and early supporters can become the first liquidity providers.Then came stablecoin pairs. Take USDC/USDT, for example. A good passive strategy can approach optimal l
