FILE Price Prediction: $1.11 Is the Line in the Sand — Break It or Face a Hard Reset

Ted Hisokawa  Sep 29, 2026 10:53 UTC  FILE is pressing against critical resistance at $1.09–$1.11 with all major moving averages aligned bullishly beneath it and open interest exploding 26% in 24 hours — but aggressive taker selling is…  FILE Is Coiling at a Critical Junction — The Setup Is Loaded  FILE is sitting at $1.07 as of September 29 morning session, up a modest 1.55% on the day, and on the surface that looks pedestrian. Don‘t be fooled. What’s happening under the hood is anything but quiet. Open interest on Binance Futures has ripped 26.25% higher in 24 hours — that‘s not noise, that’s capital moving with conviction. New positions are being built aggressively, and when you combine that with a price sitting above every major moving average on the board, the structural setup for FILE is genuinely constructive heading into month-end.  The broader crypto environment matters here too. Layer-1 and DeFi tokens have been caught in a push-pull between Bitcoin‘s gravitational pull and their own on-chain catalysts. FILE, as a native crypto asset, is not immune to BTC correlation — but the independent OI surge suggests there’s a protocol-specific narrative pulling money in. Traders tracking this space on Blockchain.news will recognize this pattern: a

Zcash (ZEC) Plunges 12% Daily: Healthy Correction or the End of the Rally?

“It needs some of the air let out,” one analyst stated.  The popular privacy coin was on a tear earlier this month, rising to a ten-year high of almost $1,700. However, over the next few days, the bears stepped in, and the situation has only worsened in the past 24 hours.  Currently, ZEC trades just north of $1,400, and many market observers believe the price has yet to plunge much further.  What Now?  X user Ardi said he remains bullish on ZEC but added he won‘t pretend losing $1,420 wouldn’t matter in this phase of price discovery. The analyst assumed that losing this support (as it did) might lead to a sweep toward $1,250 and below, “regardless of where I think Zcash goes this cycle.”  He also noted that its easy for people to say they will buy a correction while the price is rallying, yet when it actually starts dumping, some become convinced it has much further to fall.  “They get the lower price. Then they lower their bids again,” Ardi concluded.  Nick O‘Neill also spotted the asset’s pullback, saying “it feels good.” The analyst emphasized that going straight up is never healthy, and after such an astonishing bull run, it might be time for ZEC

Could AI agents spend digital euros? The ECB wants to find out

Imagine telling an AI assistant to pay your electricity bill, and it just does it, without you lifting a finger. Thats what the European Central Bank is now looking to do!  A month ago, the ECB said it wanted the digital euro to be “fit for the future.” Introducing AI is a way to find out what that future actually looks like.  What the ECB wants to build  Applications were opened by the ECB on September 28 for the latest round of its digital euro innovation platform.  Theyre encouraging fintech companies and payment firms to apply, and the work is split into two parts.  They want fintech companies and payment firms to apply, and the work is split into two parts.  For the first part, from January to June 2027, those participating will build prototypes of features the digital euro could offer one day. These features include digital receipts, payments involving a lot of people, and payments that only go through when certain conditions are met.  Source: ECB  Some will also work on how the digital euro looks and feels on the users end.  The second part is more about the long game.  Therell be workshops in the first half of 2027, and this is where the AI angle comes

Trump-related American Bitcoin has lost more than 90% of its value

Hut 8-owned BTC mining firm, American Bitcoin, has dramatically underperformed BTC since its reverse merger which allowed it to become publicly listed.  American Bitcoin has lost approximately 92% of its value (after accounting for its reverse stock split) since its merger.  BTC by comparison has lost a mere quarter of its value.  American Bitcoin claims that it “was formed through the strategic contribution of substantially all of Hut 8s ASIC fleet into a new venture led by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.”  More specifically, Eric Trump served as chief strategy officer during this 90% decline.  Donald Trump Jr. provides advice to the firm in his role as senior adviser.  Together theyve led this firm which is supposedly “a pure-play BTC accumulation platform that integrates scaled BTC mining operations with disciplined accumulation strategies” into a substantial decline that has far outpaced the decline of BTC.  Read more: Trump promised bitcoin ‘made in America’ then ruined it with tariffs  American Bitcoin reported a net loss of over $150 million for 2025.  For the first six months of 2026 it has added to those with an additional $138 million in net losses, largely driven by the falling price of BTC.  The recent rebound in BTC prices will likely reduce some of those

Will the Fed Raise Interest Rates in October? Key Signal Arrives

New York Fed President John Williams, the second-ranking official on the Federal Reserves rate-setting committee, pushed back on an October rate hike. The Fed has “no need for urgency,” he said.  Last week, markets predicted a 70% probability of an October rate hike. Today, it has dropped below 50%. What does this mean for Bitcoin and the wider crypto market?  Sponsored  Sponsored  Fed Can Wait After Septembers Hike  The Fed raised its benchmark rate by a quarter point on September 16. This increased the borrowing costs for everything from mortgages to business loans.  Williams is vice chair of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), the group that votes on rates. He spoke at the University at Buffalo.  “With the policy action we took at our September meeting, there is no need for urgency, and we have time to gather more information,” said Williams.  He still called 3.7% inflation “unquestionably too high.” He added that one more hike “may be appropriate late this year.” The Feds two remaining meetings of 2026 fall on October 28 and December 9.  Traders took the hint. According to CME FedWatch, which turns futures prices into odds, the chance of an October hike is now close to a coin flip. Weeks ago, it was well

AMD Makes Its Biggest Move Against Nvidia Yet

AMD is paying about $8.2 billion in stock for World Labs, a two-year-old startup run by Fei-Fei Li. Her ImageNet photo database helped launch the modern AI boom.  This startup was actually funded by Nvidia – partially. This now puts Nvidia in a very odd spot.   Sponsored  Sponsored  AMD Buys the Brains to Go With Its Chips  World Labs is basically trying to teach AI to understand and create 3D spaces, rather than only understanding words or flat images.  For instance, ChatGPT can understand: “There is a chair next to a table.”  World Labs wants AI to understand what that room actually looks like in 3D — where the chair is, how far it is from the table, what you would see if you walked behind it, and potentially what happens when objects move or interact. They call this “spatial intelligence.”  With this latest partnership, Li becomes AMD‘s chief scientist, reporting straight to the company’s Chair and CEO.  So excited to welcome @theworldlabs and @drfeifei to the @AMD family! I‘ve always been a huge fan of Fei-Fei and her pioneering research in AI. Together, we’ll combine World Labs‘ deep expertise in AI and world models with AMD’s compute leadership to power the future of AI and… https://t.co/5qaC30Q03T  — Lisa

ECB puts AI agent payments on the digital euro drawing board

The European Central Bank is seeking fintechs, payment firms and other organizations to explore the use of AI agents in digital euro payments.  The ECB opened applications on Monday for a new round of its digital euro innovation platform, dividing the program between hands-on testing of payment features and workshops on future digital euro uses.  The experimentation track will run from January through June 2027, with selected participants developing prototypes for e-receipts, multiparty transactions, conditional payments and new front-end features.  Workshops in the first half of 2027 will cover AI-enabled payments, micropayments, machine-to-machine interactions and uses of the digital euro in public services.  A subset of participants will present at the ECBs Frankfurt headquarters. The ECB said the findings could inform future enhancements and use cases for the digital euro.  The digital euro is a proposed central bank digital currency for retail payments across the euro area. It would operate as digital cash alongside banknotes and coins.  The ECB has already selected 36 banks and payment firms, including Revolut, Stripe and Deutsche Bank, for a separate 12-month pilot beginning in the second half of 2027. Any issuance would still require EU legislation and a subsequent ECB decision.

Bitwise launches first US spot NEAR ETF after tokens recent surge

Crypto asset manager Bitwise has launched the first US spot exchange-traded product tracking NEAR, giving investors exposure to the token through a fund trading on NYSE Arca.  The Bitwise NEAR ETF, trading under the ticker NRR, carries a 0.75% management fee and will hold NEAR directly, with Bitwise intending to stake a significant portion of the funds tokens.  The launch comes as activity on NEAR Intents, the networks cross-chain transaction protocol, has increased sharply, with volume rising to more than $32 billion compared with less than $1 billion a year ago, according to Bitwise.  Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan told Cointelegraph that the firm sees AI agents as a growing use case for NEAR and has already seen evidence of agents using the network. He expects that activity to increase over time, although most activity on NEAR today remains human-driven.  Hougan added that Bitwise has been working on the US NEAR ETF since launching its European NEAR exchange-traded product in June 2025. NRR joins its US lineup of single-asset crypto products tracking Bitcoin (BITB), Ether (ETHW), Solana (BSOL), XRP (XRP) and Hyperliquid (BHYP).  The NEAR token has rallied sharply over the past month, gaining about 167% to trade around $4.94 on Tuesday, according to

Bitcoin Faces Risk as US Credit Card Stress Hits Multi-Year Highs

Weakening household credit alongside high rates could put Bitcoin on the defensive while financial conditions tighten.  Serious credit card delinquencies among Americans aged 18 to 29 rose 10.1% in the second quarter of 2026, the highest since Q1 2025.  The same stress is showing up in older age groups too, and one crypto analytics account reads it as a warning sign for Bitcoin.  Delinquencies Climb Across Age Groups  The share of young borrowers moving into serious delinquency rose 0.4 percentage points from the prior quarter. It was the second straight increase and puts the rate closer to its highest level since Q4 2010, with The Kobeissi Letter noting that the figure has more than doubled since Q2 2021.  Other groups are slipping too. Transitions into 90-plus-day delinquency for Americans aged 70 and over rose 0.3 points to 6.3%, the highest since Q3 2011. Among 50- to 59-year-olds, the rate edged up 0.1 points to 6.4%, the highest since Q4 2024.  Hupzy, an agent associated with Spot On Chain, described the data as a risk-off signal for Bitcoin, arguing that household credit deterioration alongside a hawkish Federal Reserve could weigh on risk assets while longer-term rates remain high.  “For BTC, the setup leans defensive while long-end yields stay
