Bitcoin's Price Looks Shaky at $76K, but the Trend Says Otherwise

Bitcoin‘s price is sitting between $76,400 to $76,700 per unit on Sunday morning, which sounds pretty uneventful until you look under the hood. Short-term momentum has gone sour, BTC has been turned away twice from roughly $82,300-$82,800, and several averages immediately overhead are now working against it. Yet zoom out far enough and almost the opposite picture appears. Bitcoin’s price is still trading above nearly every major longer-term moving average. The bears have the short game. The bulls still own much of the long one.  Key TakeawaysBitcoin‘s price sits near $76,400 to $76,700 over the last hour after Sept. 12’s wild $79,837-to-$76,040 swing.The daily charts 11 oscillators lean bearish, but 9 of 15 moving averages remain bullish.Bitcoins price needs to reach roughly $78,500 per coin, and losing $76,000 would put lower support in play.  1-Hour Chart Outlook  That makes the 1-hour chart a good place to see just how messy things have become. On Sept. 12, bitcoins price shot all the way to $79,837 before getting hammered down to $76,040, a $3,797 trip from top to bottom.  Since that shakeout, the fireworks have mostly stopped.

Chainlink: Grayscale & Bitwise scoop 1.4M tokens, yet LINK slips

Institutional demand around Chainlink strengthened as institutions expanded their $LINK holdings while broader accumulation absorbed available supply.  Grayscale extended its accumulation activity after its $GLNK ETF received another 203,810 $LINK worth $2.38 million from Coinbase Prime.  Over 18 days, the Grayscale ETF received around 1.05 million $LINK, valued at approximately $12.12 million. These persistent purchases reinforced the institutional demand narrative despite $LINKs recent price retracement.  Additionally, Bitwise confirmed the accumulation trend after also purchasing another 163,664 $LINK, worth roughly $1.91 million. Also, the institution remained a consistent buyer during the previous two weeks.  The institutions total holdings hit 3.964 million $LINK, with an average acquisition price of roughly $9.96.  Therefore, this implies that the accumulation extended beyond a single institutional vehicle, reflecting a broader sustained interest.  Reserve growth adds another demand layer  The Chainlinks strategic reserve added another 91,100 $LINK, valued at roughly $1.06 million. The purchase increased the 30-day accumulation reserve to 511,000 $LINK, worth approximately $5.52 million.  The acquisition brought the total reserve holdings to 5.86 million $LINK, worth nearly $67.24 million. Therefore, this reserve accumulation provided another source of recurring $LINK absorption alongside the institutional purchases.  Furthermore, the ETF activity also strengthened the broader demand outlook. Reportedly, Chainlink ETFs attracted $4.27 million in investor capital during

Why 90% of your DeFi trades are quietly being routed back to Wall Street market makers

Open Jupiter, tell it you want to swap SOL for USDC, check the price, and press the button. From the users point of view, there is not much more to it.  Related Asset Solana #7 SOL · $99.66 24-hour change: down 2.19% 24H Down 2.19% 7D Down 6.12% 30D Up 32.43%  So its only natural to assume that Jupiter is where the trade happens. In reality, Jupiter is closer to a search engine for liquidity. Its software looks across different places willing to take the other side of the trade, compares what they are offering, and sends the order toward the best route it can find. Its current system can choose among ordinary decentralized exchanges, proprietary automated market makers, or propAMMs, and a request-for-quote network where professional market makers compete to quote a price.  The user sees one interface and one price, while underneath it several very different kinds of markets can be competing for the same order.

It could be a professional trading operation using its own money and pricing software, with no consumer-facing exchange and no pool

Reform UKs £72M donations face new legal test

Reform UK has received £72 million, approximately $97 million, from crypto billionaires Christopher Harborne and Ben Delo through two matching donations announced within 24 hours.  The Guardian reported on Sept. 12 that Harborne gave £36 million to Nigel Farages party one day after Delo announced an equal contribution. Each gift matched the largest individual political donation recorded in the U.K., according to the newspaper.  Harborne is an investor in stablecoin issuer Tether and cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex. Delo co-founded BitMEX, one of the earliest major cryptocurrency derivatives exchanges.  Neither donor said the latest money was transferred in cryptocurrency. Reports covering the contributions did not identify their payment method, making the donors industry connections separate from the proposed ban on political donations paid with crypto assets.

Tom Lee Says Crypto Will Be “Really Bullish” For the Next 12 Months

Tom Lee says the next 12 months will be “really bullish” for crypto. The Wall Street strategist has reason to hope he is right, because the company he chairs sits about $5 billion underwater.  Lee runs research at Fundstrat Global Advisors and chairs BitMine Immersion Technologies, which holds 5.93 million ether.  Sponsored  Sponsored  The Worst is Over for Crypto Markets?  His first argument is that the pain already happened. On October 10 last year, a threat of 100% tariffs on China set off the largest liquidation crypto has seen. More than $19 billion in leveraged bets vanished in a day.  The borrowed money went with it, Lee says. He reads the bottom of cryptos four-year cycle, a rhythm many traders use to time the market, as next month.  Prices have not caught up.

Crypto wallet creators now have just 24 hours to alert regulators when flaws are exploited

Commercial manufacturers whose connected hardware wallets or wallet software meet the European Unions product test must now warn cyber authorities within 24 hours of discovering an actively exploited vulnerability or severe security incident.  The requirement took effect Sept. 11, 2026, under the EUs Cyber Resilience Act, or CRA. The European Commissions reporting guidance says the clock applies to manufacturers of products with digital elements.  The CRA is a horizontal product law. The Commissions implementation FAQ says it applies to hardware and software made available on the EU market. The legal test also requires the products intended or reasonably foreseeable use to include a direct or indirect data connection to a device or network.  A commercially supplied connected hardware wallet or downloadable wallet app can meet that test. However, EU guidance does not name wallet brands or declare every wallet service or project covered. Coverage depends on the specific product, how it is supplied and any applicable exclusion.  What manufacturers must report  The first filing is an early warning due without undue delay and no later than 24 hours after a manufacturer becomes aware of the vulnerability or incident. It must indicate, where applicable, the member states where the product is known to have been made

Anthropic chief urges slowdown in AI development to safer pace

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said in a blog post on Saturday that the speed of AI development is too fast and that left unchecked it may “outrun our ability to understand and control these systems.”  He noted that AIs current blistering advance is being driven by its own increasing ability to build the next generation of AI, or recursive self-improvement.  Amodei also cited the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident in July, in which a swarm of agents acted as a “fanatically devoted collective,” breaking out of their testing environment and attempting to hack into a grader evaluating their performance.  He said he worries that in six to 12 months, such a swarm might be capable of taking over the entire internet. Amodei is not alone in his anxieties.  Elon Musk, head of SpaceXAI, posted on X that “Dario is right.”  Altman will not launch IPO this year, focus on safety  OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in an interview with Fortune published on Saturday that his company would not seek an IPO this year because it will focus on safety and how “the industry and governments can work together.”  Altman later posted on X that he agreed on slowing the pace of AI development and having independent evaluators with employee-like

Former RippleX Executive Says XRP Has a “Killer Use Case”

RippleX Head of Product Jazzi Cooper made a bold declaration this week. Using XRP as collateral for institutional credit, she said, represents a genuine “killer use case” for the token.  Responding directly on X, Cooper confirmed the framing. She noted it is fully enabled by the XLS-65 and XLS-66 lending protocol, now live on the XRP Ledger.  Sponsored  Sponsored  Yes – XRP as collateral for institutional credit is a killer use case (and supported by xls65/66 lending protocol!)  — Jazzi Cooper (@jazzicoop) September 11, 2026  What the Lending Protocol Actually Unlocks  The declaration marks a shift beyond XRPs traditional role in cross-border payments. Market makers and institutional traders can post XRP as collateral to secure credit lines without liquidating their positions.  The protocol introduces native fixed-term, fixed-rate lending through Single Asset Vaults. That structure, in turn, lets institutions treat XRP as productive working capital. Institutions still retain full control over underwriting and compliance decisions off-chain.  Commentator Bill Morgan expanded on the significance. He noted the use case was not even possible before the SEC lawsuit against Ripple concluded. It only became viable, in other words, once the lending protocol launched on XRPL.  Morgan pointed to Ripple Prime, which already accepts XRP as eligible collateral alongside Bitcoin, RLUSD, fiat, gold, and
