Hello, traders! If you think the market is calm, you’re very wrong. Tonight, there are big moves rarely discussed by mainstream media. From central banks choosing a particular blockchain, to privacy coins predicted to surge by 3x, to the epic battle between whales and institutions on Hyperliquid. I’ve summarized the data — and here’s what you need to know before it’s too late.
🏛️ Quant (QNT) Explodes +88% — Chosen by The Clearing House for Tokenized Bank Deposits!
This isn’t speculation. This is real institutional adoption.
Quant ($QNT ) surged +88.05% in 24 hours and +59% in a week after The Clearing House (TCH) — the interbank payments network that processes more than $2 trillion in daily transaction volume — officially chose Quant as the interoperability layer for its On-Chain Money Initiative.
What does it mean?
The quant will provide interoperability infrastructure and transaction management for tokenized deposits — connecting tokenization bank deposits with existing payment systems like RTP and CHIPS.
This network is targeted to go live in the first half of 2027.
QNT trading volume jumps 718% — a technical confirmation that new money is truly flowing in.
Additional catalyst: Quant will be at Sibos 2026 in Miami (September 28 – October 1) — one of the world’s largest financial infrastructure conferences. Previously, Quant also supported the Great British Tokenised Deposit project with EY and Linklaters in the UK.
Note: The next resistance area for QNT is at $100–$103. The question is: is this institutional narrative strong enough to break through it, or does the market need consolidation?
🥇 Zcash ($ZEC ) — Co-Founder Predicts $5,000, Grayscale ETF Executes Stock Split!
Zcash (ZEC) is currently trading around $1.543**, with a market cap of about **$26 billion and 24-hour volume of $1.23 billion.
Surprising data:
+96% in the last month
+2,707% in the last year
Grayscale announced a 3-for-1 stock split for its ZCSH product — adjusted trading begins September 30, making shares more accessible to retail investors.
The hottest: Zcash co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson repeats his prediction that ZEC will reach $5,000 by the end of 2026 — implying about a 200% increase from today’s price.
Main drivers:
Grayscale ZCSH — the first privacy spot ETF approved by U.S. regulators — continues to absorb institutional capital.
The November 2024 halving cut annual inflation from ~4% to 2%, tightening supply.
Shielded activity continues to rise — privacy interest is genuinely growing.
Warning: ZEC briefly recorded a weekly decline of about 2% — which, in the context of a 2,707% yearly increase, is just noise. But RSI still needs to be monitored.
🚀 Hyperliquid ($HYPE ) — $100 Million Battle: Whale Selling, Institutions Buying!
Hyperliquid (HYPE) is at the center of an epic battle between whales selling and institutions accumulating.
Selling side:
Five whales have unstaked about $90.4 million in HYPE.
Multicoin transfers $12.15 million** from Coinbase Prime — total of more than **$100 million potential selling pressure.
One wallet deposits 177,518 HYPE worth $16.08 million into OKX and Bybit on September 28.
A wallet connected to Hypersphere Ventures sells 62,869 HYPE worth $5.78 million** with profit of about **$2.13 million.
Buying side:
Hyperliquid Strategies acquires 494,000 HYPE worth $45.8 million, increasing total holdings to 35 million HYPE.
Buyback & burn continues — Hyperliquid buys and burns 10,400 HYPE worth $956,800 in the last 24 hours.
The total cumulative burn reaches 48.96 million HYPE — about 4.9% of the total maximum supply of 1 billion.
Current position: HYPE is trading around $90–$91, after briefly printing an ATH of $95**. The remaining long-whale positions have a **liquidation price of $88.50 — a critical level to watch**.
Conclusion: HYPE is a tug-of-war between short-term selling pressure and long-term institutional accumulation. Whoever wins will determine the next direction.
📊 Altcoin Season Officially Begins — 87% of Altcoins Above MA 200!
CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost reports that 87% of altcoins listed on Binance are now trading above the 200-day moving average — a drastic reversal from June 2026 when 80% of altcoins were below the 200-day MA.
Supporting data:
Total2 (altcoin market cap including Ethereum) has added $371 billion since June 2026 — up about 45%.
Altcoin Season Index is at 64, nearing the 75 threshold.
The RWA sector is up 4.24% in 24 hours, led by Ondo Finance (+6.16%) and Sky (+4.25%).
Darkfost’s warning: While this breadth of recovery shows strong bullish momentum, RSI on Total2 shows bearish divergence — price is making higher highs, but RSI is making lower highs. This could signal momentum is weakening and the market may be approaching a more fragile stage.

⚠️ Hard Warning
The current market is highly volatile. A coin that’s up 88% in a day can also drop 70% in a few weeks. QNT, ZEC, and HYPE are all technically in overbought conditions.
This is not a buy or sell call. Do your own research (DYOR) and only invest money you’re ready to lose.
