U.Today - In a stunning turn of events, insiders appear to have gained a significant edge on the crypto markets, with data from revealing a remarkable accumulation surge within shark and whale wallets. This noteworthy uptick in accumulation occurred right before the breaking news of the landmark v. SEC ruling.

The timing could not have been more precise, as individuals behind wallets containing between 10 and 10,000 BTC amassed a staggering $388.3 million, equivalent to 14,596 BTC, in Bitcoin on the day leading up to the announcement. As a result, this accumulation craze was rewarded handsomely, with Bitcoin's price experiencing a 6% surge, reaching a two-week pinnacle of $28,142 per

Crypto.news - Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff warns that Grayscale’s recent legal victory in converting its GBTC to a spot Bitcoin ETF could be bearish for the cryptocurrency.

Schiff wrote in an Aug. 29 tweet, “GBTC becoming a spot ETF is actually bearish for Bitcoin.” He explained that traders can buy GBTC now and sell or short BTC. He added that once GBTC becomes an ETF, the discount to net asset value goes away.

The comment follows Grayscale Investments LLC securing judicial backing for initiating a Bitcoin spot ETF in the United States. Three federal judges annulled the SEC’s decision to prevent GBTC’s conversion to a spot Bitcoin ETF, allowing it to move forward instead.

Defunct crypto lending firm BlockFi has applied to a court to request the transfer of “trade-only” assets from its users’ accounts into stablecoins so the individuals could withdraw them. The request marks another step toward the return of users’ funds, a process that the company began in August.

On Aug. 29, BlockFi filed an application to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey to authorize the conversion of the so-called trade-only assets into stablecoins. The assets in question — Algorand’s native token, ALGO, Bitcoin Cash (B*H) and Dogecoin (DOGE) — cannot be withdrawn easily, and BlockFi suggests a one-time exchange for Gemini Dollar (GUSD) or another stablecoin.

Crypto.news - The race for stablecoin supremacy heats up as industry experts debate Tether’s role and new players like PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) enter the arena.

Bloomberg Intelligence expert Jamie Coutts pointed to Ethereum’s (ETH) growing dominance, highlighted by key network adoption metrics and layer-2 projects like Optimism, Arbitrum, and Base.

He anticipates that Ethereum’s scaling roadmap will drastically lower layer-2 transaction costs, thanks to the forthcoming EIP-4844. This comes as PayPal recently debuted its PYUSD stablecoin, fueling speculation that it might develop its own layer-2 network.

The U.S. dollar edged higher in early European trade Tuesday, reversing some of the previous session’s sharp losses as traders revised their positions before data showing a potential rise in U.S. inflation.

At 03:10 ET (07:10 GMT), the Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six other currencies, traded 0.1% higher to 104.332, after falling 0.5% in the prior session, retreating from last week's six-month high of 105.15.

U.S. inflation release the main focus
The focus of the foreign exchange market this week is squarely on U.S. consumer inflation data due on Wednesday, which is expected to set the tone for a Federal Reserve meeting next week.

The central bank is widely expected to keep rates on hold in September, but signs that inflation is proving sticky could prompt another hike before the end of the year.

“The FOMC has already entered the pre-meeting blackout period, but the latest indications clearly pointed to a pause in September. Can inflation change policymakers’ minds? It would probably need to be a materially stronger than expected print, but from an FX perspective, expect the bullish pass-through to the dollar to be felt anyway,” said analysts at ING, in a note.

U.K. wage growth remains high
GBP/USD traded largely flat at 1.2505, as traders digested the latest U.K. employment data.

The U.K. unemployment rate rose to 4.3% in the three months to July from 4.2% a month earlier, its highest since the three months to September 2021, with the labor market showing signs of cooling.

However, wages excluding bonuses were 7.8% higher than a year earlier in the three months to July - the joint-fastest rate since records began in 2001 - putting more pressure on the Bank of England to tighten monetary policy further.

BOE policymaker Catherine Mann warned late Monday that it's too soon to stop raising rates, and the central bank is widely expected to hike by another 25 basis points.

Crypto.news - Rollbit, Arbitrum, and The Graph bear the brunt of crypto market fluctuations as Bitcoin falls below $25k for the first time since June.

Cryptocurrency markets have seen a slight wave of volatility, as the overall market is down by 2.8% in the past 24 hours. Among the top losers were Rollbit Coin (RLB), Arbitrum (ARB), and The Graph (GRT).

Rollbit Coin (RLB) nosedived 18.5% within a day, currently trading at $0.1293 at the time of writing. Arbitrum is also down by 10% over the same time frame.Indexing token The Graph (GRT) experienced a 7% decline. At the same time, the NFT-based token ApeCoin (APE) dropped by over 6.5%. A previous report revealed that 96% of APE holders are currently operating at a loss, encompassing over 130,000 addresses.

Arbitrum whales are selling at a loss
According to data from Arbiscan, three large transfers to Binance involving over 10.23 million ARB, valued at approximately $8 million, took place today.

Data from Lookonchain revealed that one specific whale had previously purchased 3.64 million ARB for 2,000 ETH ($3.27 million) at an average price of $0.9 since Sept. 3. Today, the same investor deposited all of these ARB assets to Binance, incurring a loss of approximately $300,000. These movements suggest that whales might be losing confidence in the token.

Sidebar: Bitcoin’s brief dip below $25,000
Amid these notable movements in the altcoin sphere, Bitcoin (BTC) — the leading cryptocurrency — also experienced a momentary setback. For the first time in three months, its price briefly fell below the $25,000 mark.

While it did not experience the drastic drops seen by the aforementioned altcoins, this temporary slide serves as another reminder of the market’s current condition.

The Stellar token experienced a notable 11.5% increase in value between Sept. 2 and Sept. 8, a novelty given that Bitcoin and most altcoins are down for the week. The surge came after Stellar (XLM) tested the $0.113 support level, which marked its lowest point in the past eight weeks. The price upswing followed a preliminary announcement made by the Stellar organization on social media.

While the announcement was somewhat cryptic, it hinted at something significant occurring on Sept. 12, with phrases like “something cool is dropping” and "change” on the horizon.

A key talking point in the crypto community has been the ongoing exodus of executives from Binance amid growing regulatory troubles. Binance has seen the departure of 10 key executives from various departments in the first nine months of 2023. The latest to join the list is Helen Hai, executive vice president of Binance, who announced her resignation from her post on Sept. 6. On the same day, Gleb Kostarev, vice president of Eastern Europe, Turkey, the Commonwealth of Independent States, Australia and New Zealand at Binance, also announced his resignation, as did CIS general manager Vladimir Smerkis. Four top executives from Binance reportedly all left on the same day after Binances response to the United States Department of Justice investigation. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has hosed down recent rumors against his firm, assuring its balance sheet and employee retention remain robust despite the recent market uncertainty.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission has approved Nasdaq’s request to operate its first AI-driven order type on Sept. 8. Called the dynamic midpoint extended life order (M-ELO), the new system expands on the M-ELO automated order type by making it dynamic, meaning it will use artificial intelligence to update and, essentially, recalibrate itself in real-time. The follow-on effect should be a significant acceleration of orders placed with the system. Nasdaq says the dynamic M-ELO demonstrated a 20.3% increase in fill rates and an 11.4% reduction in mark-outs during its research and testing.
