This week, the whales decided to flash their fins-selling off with the gusto of auctioneers at a country fair, dragging BTC from a lofty $115K down to the sullen lows of $112K. Volume sky-rocketed from a modest $20 billion to over $66 billion-what a display! It seems our large investors, or should I say, the “big fish”, are cashing in their chips. On-chain gossip suggests that wallets holding over 10,000 BTC are in full-blown distribution mode, waving goodbye to their long-term holdings as if they’re leaving a bad date. The supply of these massive holdings has shrunk from 70% to 60% recently-and the long-timers are shedding more than a few crocodile tears. It’s basically “Sell, darling, sell!” on a massive scale. 🎩🐋

That shiny cash is going straight into turbocharging Fnality’s fancy, regulated, distributed-ledger payment systems. Yep, they’re building bridges-literally and figuratively-between wholesale markets and all those shiny new tokens. Plus, since December 2023, they’ve rolled out the Sterling Fnality Payment System, and it’s only getting bigger, better, and faster. Expect more currencies, swifter liquidity management, and a whole lot of settlement interoperability-think of it as the Uber of finance, but make it blockchain. With this, they’re promising real-time DvP (delivery versus payment), on-demand FX PvP (foreign exchange plus more fancy acronyms), and instant repo settlement, because waiting is so last decade.

XRP, it appears, is having a moment. A rather pivotal one, filled with the usual mix of rumour, hope, and the sinking feeling that one has perhaps overextended. Traders are tracking institutional activity, the unfathomable complexities of regulation, and the mysterious machinations of network growth, all while attempting to decipher the mood of the herd. Naturally.

Mark well, Ethereum ($ETH) standeth firm at $4,460, while the rivers of capital flow into the altcoin novelties with the fervor of a pilgrim’s quest. The soothsayer “Cryptollica” on X proclaimeth that the Total2 chart doth mirror the patterns of 2017 and 2021, years of such exuberance that even the gods of finance blushed. Thus, the Altcoin Season of 2025 is but a babe in swaddling clothes, its cries of profit yet to reach their full pitch. 👶📈

At a $500 billion valuation, Tether would sit alongside OpenAI and SpaceX like a whale in a goldfish bowl. Circle, poor soul, would be left playing checkers with its $30 billion, muttering about unfair odds. The math? A 3% stake for $15-20 billion. That’s a deal so lopsided, even a barn cat could sniff out the absurdity.

The hidden maestros behind these cyber symphonies have long serenaded the crypto space, liberally conducting their grand heists under the starlit skies of cyberspace. Their repertoire includes targeting both the colossal whales and the diminutive minnows of the crypto ocean, encompassing the gamut of tactics suited to the nefarious ensemble cast of hacker bots and keenly engineered modules. Material thieves from this band have been on stage for so long, they now make the Mothman at the Watergate seem like an amateur illusionist.

On a day that shall be forever remembered-September 23, to be exact-the heralds at Securitize’s website sounded the trumpet in a press release that rippled through the digital halls. Securitize, a veritable titan of tokenizing the real world’s riches, wielding over $4 billion of assets as of May 2025, commands this new alchemy of turning solid assets into… well, tokens, naturally.

OSL Group has announced the completion of its acquisition of Koinsayang, a licensed digital asset exchange in Indonesia. The deal consisted of the issue of some 9.266 million consideration shares. With this move, OSL Group gains licenses for cryptocurrency and derivatives trading. The acquisition is a major move for the company’s growth strategy throughout Southeast Asia. 🧠💸

Ah, the familiar story of a fleeting dip, just before the grand rally. Analysts-bless their hearts-are predicting that ADA will take a short detour into the land of despair, a mere correction before the next great leap. The structure whispers of a pullback into early October, where the price could revisit the lower realms of support. The RSI is cooling off too, possibly because even Cardano needs a little rest. Let’s face it, short-term weakness often paves the way for greater strength. It’s almost poetic, really.

But don’t hang up your crypto hat just yet! Some American-made coins are strutting their stuff like they own the place-because maybe, just maybe, there’s hope in these digital streets. Here are three Made in the USA coins actually worth your eyeballs this week.
