Glassnode-Daten zeigten, dass der Überweisungswert von Bitcoin in der vergangenen Woche um 26 % auf 5,5 Milliarden US-Dollar gestiegen ist. Der Bericht von Glassnode vom 26.

CryptoQuant analysis points to the early stages of a Bitcoin bull market as the realized cap share of coins dormant for at least 18 months declines. The cohort's share has remained broadly stable since mid-September, moving from 26.98% to 26.59%. CryptoQuant said similar reversals preceded earlier bull markets, but the current reversal remains small. Coins dormant for at least five years have supplied an average of 34,000 BTC monthly in 2026, half the volume in 2024.

Anthropic's IPO prospectus implies that the board valued shares at approximately $71.43 as of September 30, although the formal offering price remains blank. The calculation uses a $2 billion donation-matching expense and approximately 28 million shares issued to settle the obligation. That price implies a valuation of roughly $1.2 trillion, compared with current estimates near $1.5 trillion as of late October. The September value includes a discount because the shares were not publicly traded. Anthropic will likely begin public trading at a substantially higher price and is requesting the Nasdaq ticker ANT.

Zcash co-founder Sean Bowe submitted a proposal on Monday to redirect the Zcash Community Grants program's 8% block subsidy allocation to the Network Sustainability Mechanism.

The proposal has no activation date or height and would require a future network upgrade rather than the currently specified NU7 upgrade.

Analyst John Gillen sagte, Bitcoin könnte bis zum Jahresende 60.000 $, 100.000 $ oder beide Niveaus erreichen. Gillen argumentierte, dass die jüngste Rally trotz makroökonomischer Unsicherheit und Schwäche bei Technologiewerten weiterhin intakt sei. Er rechnet damit, dass Bitcoin sich konsolidiert, bevor der Kurs erneut steigt, auch wenn die Volatilität im Umfeld der US-Zwischenwahlen zunehmen könnte. Gillen wies die Ansicht zurück, Bitcoin benötige massive Liquiditätsspritzen der Federal Reserve, um neue Höchststände zu erreichen. Zu den kurzfristigen Risiken zählen höhere Ölpreise, anhaltende Inflation und die Erwartung einer weiteren Zinserhöhung der Federal Reserve im Dezember.
