Pump(.)Fun is expanding beyond the usual SOL and USDC markets with its new Custom Pairs feature.
Now, the platform allows creators to launch tokens paired with tokenized stocks, major crypto assets and other assets.
Pump(.)fun says the expansion brings 93 supported pairs across its xStocks and Sunrise integrations, including names such as Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, IBM, Coinbase and other major equities.
They also plans to direct 50% of revenue from Custom Pairs toward $PUMP buybacks and burns, adding a direct connection between the new trading activity and the PUMP token.
$BNB Chain is taking the lead in Real World Asset adoption by holder count, with around 1.41M RWA holders, followed by Robinhood at 1.15M and Solana at 451K.
Current RWA data also places BNB Chain at about $5.62B in distributed RWA value across roughly 1,300 assets.
RWA adoption is expanding beyond simple tokenization, with treasuries, funds and tokenized equities gaining activity across major networks.
BNB Chain’s growing holder base and multi-billion-dollar RWA value put it among the key networks to watch as more traditional assets move onchain.
$USELESS is quickly becoming one of the memecoins attracting serious attention on Solana.
Listings on Upbit and Bithumb have increased the token’s reach, while Hyperliquid has added perpetuals with leverage of up to 3x.
Bithumb’s KRW listing and Upbit’s new trading support also bring USELESS deeper into the South Korean market.
The current setup is worth watching due to the combination of exchange exposure, rising volume and growing attention from crypto traders.
One notable comparison gaining traction is its similarity to PEPE before its 2023 breakout, particularly around early strength, volume structure and expanding open interest.
Remember, that doesn't guarantee same outcome but it explains why USELESS keeps appearing on more timelines as the memecoin market looks for its next major narrative.
The stock-linked memecoin narrative is getting more interesting as crypto projects find new ways to connect meme culture with traditional market themes.
Artificial Inu for example has built its identity around NVIDIA, with its token trading against a tokenized NVDA asset and a community vault that accumulates stock tokens through trading activity.
That same narrative is now appearing around $ASHIBA or Artificial Shiba, which combines the Shiba meme with the NVIDIA/AI story.
Current on-chain data shows an ASHIBA/NVDA market on Pons, with the project describing a model where 95% of accumulated fees go to eligible holders and 5% is used for buybacks and burns.
The token is still very early, with liquidity and market size far below established memecoins, so the setup comes with significant risk.
ASHIBA is already listed on Gateio Alpha and CoinMarketCap, giving the token wider visibility and making it easier for traders to discover and track.
Bitcoin ownership continues to grow, with about 371 million people worldwide now estimated to hold Bitcoin, according to the 2026 Crypto Wealth Report.
That means almost half of the estimated 742 million crypto users globally have exposure to $BTC.
Another interesting point is that Bitcoin ownership keeps expanding across both regular users and wealthy investors.
The report estimates around 92,272 Bitcoin millionaires, showing how widely BTC has spread as a digital asset.
A growing number of holders also means more people are choosing to keep Bitcoin as part of their long-term financial strategy.

Hyper Foundation holds about 48.8% of all staked $HYPE, making it the largest single staking position in crypto.
With hundreds of millions of HYPE staked, the Foundation has a major role in helping secure and support the Hyperliquid network.
For HYPE holders, the main thing to watch is how this stake is managed over time.
A large stake can support network stability, but such a high concentration also means changes in the Foundation’s staking activity could have a noticeable impact on the network.
As Hyperliquid grows, the distribution of staked HYPE will be an important metric to follow.
Capital B has added 376 $BTC for about $29.4 million, bringing its total Bitcoin treasury to 3,521 BTC.
The purchase was made at roughly €67,182 per bitcoin and is the company’s largest Bitcoin acquisition since September 2025.

Its total Bitcoin acquisition cost stands at about €309.4 million, with an average cost of €87,878 per BTC.
Capital B also reported a 2.17% BTC Yield year-to-date, indicating how the company is measuring its strategy through Bitcoin held per fully diluted share.

Retail crypto access is moving deeper into traditional brokerage platforms.
Charles Schwab has announced plans to add $SOL, AVAX and $LINK to its Schwab Crypto platform in the coming months, expanding beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Schwab began rolling out direct crypto trading in May 2026 and has nearly 40 million active brokerage accounts, giving these assets access to a much larger pool of mainstream investors.
E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley has also entered spot crypto trading with Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana, adding another major brokerage channel for digital assets.
Together, these moves point to a broader shift: crypto is becoming easier to access through platforms investors already use for stocks, ETFs and other traditional assets.
For altcoins such as SOL, AVAX and LINK, getting listed on major brokerages could expand liquidity and visibility as more traditional investors gain direct access.
$BTC Digital (BTCT) has cleared an important Nasdaq listing hurdle after keeping its closing bid price at $1 or higher for 10 consecutive trading days.
Nasdaq confirmed on September 3 that the company had regained compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2), closing the previous deficiency case.
This came ahead of BTC Digital’s February 23, 2027 deadline, giving the company a much earlier resolution to the issue.
BTC Digital received the original deficiency notice on August 27 after its shares had remained below $1 for 30 consecutive business days.
The company operates across Bitcoin mining, mining-farm construction, data centers and AI computing infrastructure, so keeping its Nasdaq listing in good standing remains an important part of its broader business plans.
Bitcoin whales are currently showing limited interest in taking profits, with fewer large $BTC deposits flowing into exchanges.
CryptoQuant analyst PelinayPA notes that the Exchange Whale Ratio has fallen to around 0.39, suggesting whales are sending a smaller share of their coins to exchanges, where BTC is more likely to be sold.
Recent on-chain data adds to the picture: wallets holding more than 100 BTC accumulated roughly 60,000 BTC during August, while smaller holders reduced their positions.
With Bitcoin also moving back above $80,000 and U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recording strong inflows, reduced whale selling could give the market more room to push higher.
The key levels to watch are around $82,800, followed by the potential $90,000 area if momentum continues.
