Bitcoin may be entering a new bull market, according to Fidelity's Jurrien Timmer.

He says $BTC held the $60,000 support zone for almost a year, roughly matching the length of a typical Bitcoin winter.

With Bitcoin now breaking higher, Timmer says a new four-year cycle could be underway. He also pointed to the BTC/gold Z-score turning positive after spending an extended period below zero.

Timmer's longer-term model also puts a potential path toward $300,000 by 2029, based on a slower projected growth rate of around 60 to 65% annually.

That figure comes from his power-law framework and is a model-based scenario, not a guaranteed price target.

JENSEN HUANG: "AI NEEDS TO ACCELERATE TO BE SAFE"

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says Al labs should put more compute into evaluation and alignment, not just making models more capable.

His argument is simple but important:

- More compute → stronger Al
- More compute for evaluation → better understanding of Al behavior
- Better evaluation + alignment → stronger
safety systems

The bigger shift could be that Al safety becomes a core part of scaling, rather than something added after a model is built.

As Al capabilities accelerate, the race may no longer be just about who builds the most powerful models.

It could also be about who can test, monitor and control them at scale.

More Al capability. More Al evaluation.
More Al safety.

BREAKING: Bitcoin Spot ETFs just recorded a massive $2.39B in weekly inflows.

That's the strongest weekly inflow of 2026, surpassing the previous $1.92B record from August.

The signal is clear:

-> Capital is flowing back into $BTC
-> Institutional demand is accelerating
-> ETF flows are becoming a major market force

When traditional capital starts absorbing Bitcoin at this scale, the market deserves attention.

Institutional demand is heating up.

Why Brazil, Not the US, Tops the 2026 Crypto Adoption Index 🇧🇷

The United States ranks first in the world for $BTC crypto service flows and on-chain balances. Yet in Chainalysis' 2026 Global Crypto Adoption Index, the top spot went to Brazil, a $252.5 billion crypto economy that wasn't number one in a single category.

The answer is in how adoption is now measured

This year, Chainalysis switched to a new methodology that ranks 117 countries across four factors: service flows, domestic peer-to-peer activity, cross-border flows and on-chain balances. The overall score is a geometric mean, so a strong result in one area can't hide a weak one elsewhere.

That's exactly where the two leaders differ:

- Brazil placed in the global top four across all four factors: 2nd in cross-border flows, 3rd in service flows, 3rd in domestic peer-to-peer and 4th in balances.

- The US leads in service flows and balances, but ranks 20th in domestic peer-to-peer activity and 11th in cross-border flows.

In other words, the index now rewards crypto that is used broadly across an economy, not just held or traded in large volumes.

There is another detail worth noticing. Brazil's own crypto economy actually shrank by 1.6% over the 12 months to June 2026, in line with the global trend. What changed was the depth of its usage: the number of Brazilian wallets holding at least $10,000 in stablecoins grew 347% since July 2024, far ahead of Mexico, Argentina and Chile.

That points to a market that is maturing, where stablecoins are becoming part of how people save, pay and move money.

Which matters more for real adoption in your view: the size of a crypto market, or how evenly it is used?...

Stablecoin supply on #Solana hits a new all-time high of $17.3B

Despite growing bank partnerships and wider transactional use, Brandt remains focused on $XRP 's supply structure. His main concern is simple: investors still need clearer answers about how XRP's supply could change over time.

For Brandt, that uncertainty makes it difficult to decide when XRP is genuinely undervalued or overpriced. And that leads directly to his bigger argument.

Being useful for payments doesn't automatically make an asset valuable as an investment. He compares XRP with the US dollar: dollars are used constantly for transactions, but transactional demand alone doesn't make people buy them expecting major appreciation.

Brandt says Bitcoin is different because its main investment case is built around being a store of value rather than primarily a transactional asset. That clearer role, in his view, makes the valuation story easier to understand.

Still, he doesn't believe $BTC is free from long-term risks either, pointing to quantum computing as one possible threat to Bitcoin's underlying cryptographic architecture.

So does XRP's growing real-world utility eventually translate into stronger investment value, or are utility and valuation two completely different stories? Share your view below!

GRAYSCALE'S ZCASH ETF JUST HIT $1 BILLION IN AUM

Grayscale's Zcash ETF, ZCSH, has now crossed the $1 billion AUM mark just one month after launching on NYSE Arca.

The milestone comes as ZEC has exploded higher, pushing the value of the fund's existing holdings up sharply alongside fresh inflows.

Grayscale says Zcash is among the assets "defining the next era of digital finance," highlighting the growing institutional interest around privacy focused assets.

But there's an important detail, the $1B AUM figure isn't the same as $1B of new investor money. The fund had existing ZEC holdings when it converted to an ETF, while ZEC's price surge has also significantly increased its asset value.

$1B AUM in a month. Zcash is officially getting serious institutional attention.

$ETH
J.P. Morgan has tokenized approximately $940 million in assets on #Ethereum across two funds.

$XRP just bounced hard from below $1.50, gaining more than 6% in a day.

What is supporting it?

Spot XRP ETFs kept attracting money this week, pushing cumulative net inflows above $1.7B, while recent whale activity and short liquidations added fuel to the rebound.

$1.50 is now the level to watch.

$ONDO x BlackRock is another big step for tokenized investing.

$ONDO is working with BlackRock to expand access to tokenized investment portfolios for non-U.S. investors.

This shows how traditional assets are gradually moving on chain, making blockchain more useful beyond crypto.

The bigger trend is clear: traditional finance is moving on-chain.

UNI has been having a serious week.
The token is up nearly 50%, with attention coming from several directions at once, including UNI burns, Robinhood Chain, DeFi activity and the growing RWA narrative.

Big moves always make me look beyond the chart. The real thing to watch is whether the underlying activity keeps growing.

Bitget has confirmed a roughly $351.6M security breach involving parts of its hot and warm wallet infrastructure.

Withdrawals were suspended after unauthorized transfers were detected, while deposits and trading remained operational.

Bitget says its cold wallets were not affected and its User Protection Fund currently holds more than $464M, which it says is enough to cover the estimated loss. The exchange is still investigating exactly how the attack happened.

Personally, the biggest issue here isn't just the $351M headline.
It's operational security.

An exchange can have billions in assets and still have a vulnerable layer sitting between its wallet infrastructure and signing system.
Early reports point toward a compromised third party tool generating fraudulent transfer information, rather than a straightforward private key leak.

That's an important distinction, but it doesn't make the incident less serious.
And this is where proof of reserves alone doesn't answer everything.

Users also need to understand how exchanges secure hot wallets, control signing permissions and respond when abnormal transactions start moving funds.

The protection fund may cover the loss. But trust is harder to replenish.

For now, I'm watching two things: how quickly withdrawals return and whether Bitget's final post mortem explains exactly where the security failure happened.

Because in crypto, "funds are protected" is a statement.

The investigation is what has to prove it.
