Positive News Boosts Other AI Tokens in September

Coincidences or not, several other AI tokens also benefited from bullish news in September, drawing more attention to the sector.

For example, OpenLedger (OPEN) surged 135% after listing on Binance. More recently, Coinbase and Upbit listed FLOCK, sending the token up more than 200% to a new all-time high.

In conclusion, Worldcoin’s rise and the excitement of Korean traders are contributing to the surge in AI tokens this September.

The widespread rally across the AI sector also signals that retail investors are beginning to reallocate capital after two months of stagnation, during which the altcoin market capitalization (TOTAL3) hovered around $1 trillion.

All eyes on Jackson Hole as dollar traders await Powell

Event focus: The Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium takes place August 21–23, 2025, with Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech set for Friday at 14:00 GMT.

Rate cut expectations: Markets see an 83% chance of a 25 bps rate cut on September 17, down from 94% last week.

Dollar impact: Lower interest rates tend to weaken the dollar and boost risk assets, such as stocks and crypto.

Powell's tone matters: A dovish Powell could fuel an EUR/USD breakout; a hawkish tone might trigger profit-taking.

EUR/USD setup: The EUR/USD pair is up 13% year-to-date, and is trading near 1.168, just below key resistance at 1.182

Neutral technicals: A flat MACD and RSI at 50 reflect market indecision ahead of Powell’s remarks.

The supreme court’s tariffs ruling puts Trump on notice with a bloody nose

After an agonising year in which the US supreme court has stood aside and watched while Donald Trump has run roughshod over the constitutional separation of powers, the highest judicial panel has finally stirred itself to set boundaries on the president’s increasingly regal pose.

With midterm elections just nine months away, Trump has also been deprived of a key weapon in his second-presidency armory. The ruling came as a jolt, and Trump wasted no time venting his fury against the justices who had defied him. He denigrated them on social media in an all-caps personalised attack that was extraordinary, even by his norm-shattering standards.

Friday’s ruling puts Trump on notice. Though the president responded to the ruling as though he were impervious, immediately announcing a new raft of tariffs under different legislative authority, the court has made itself clear: there is a limit.

But those tempted to be starry-eyed about this juncture should also be put on notice. There is a limit too to the supreme court’s beneficence.

#TokenizedRealEstate

Real estate is going digital. For decades, investing in property meant paperwork, brokers, and big down payments. Thanks to tokenization, real estate can be split into digital tokens, with each representing a share of ownership. Think of it as a new way to buy, sell, and manage property. Just as changes in the XRP price reflect confidence in crypto markets, tokenization shows how blockchain is transforming how people invest in the real world.

What Is Tokenization in Real Estate?

Simply put, tokenization involves turning a physical asset (an apartment building or a retail space, for example) into digital tokens on a blockchain. Just like owning shares in a company, each token represents a small piece of ownership.

Lowering Barriers to Entry

Real estate has always been a top way to build wealth, but it’s also one of the toughest markets to get into. It has become a game for the rich because of high costs, long wait times, and limited access. Tokenization changes that.

Making Real Estate More Liquid and Efficient

Real estate is reliable, but it's also slow. Selling a property can take months, and transferring ownership is often complicated. Tokenization speeds things up. Investors can buy and sell property tokens on digital exchanges without having to wait for the whole property sale to finish.

If you're considering investing in tokenized real estate, here are a few essential things to know:

Changing rules: Each country has its own set of rules, and they can change quickly.
Platform reliability: The safety and stability of the blockchain will impact your investment.
Limits on liquidity: Tokenized assets are easier to trade, but secondary markets are still growing.
Risks to security: If wallets or exchanges are hacked, tokens can be stolen, just like other digital assets.

America’s economy is booming
The American economy has been on a tear. After a rocky patch last year, when Donald Trump’s tariffs and immigration shutdown weighed on growth, it looks strong again. In the third quarter of 2025, GDP grew by 4.3% on an annualised basis—well above the impressive 2.5-3% clocked up between 2022 and 2024. Fourth-quarter figures, due on Friday, are expected to be only slightly lower, at 2.3%, despite the government shutdown in October and November.
The Trump administration is forecasting even faster growth this year. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a tax-cutting law enacted in July, will soon hand Americans $191bn in refunds. Mr Trump is still crusading for interest-rate cuts—which might rev up the economy further. The White House’s preferred model, from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, at one point predicted 5.4% annualised growth for the fourth quarter. That has since been trimmed to 3%—though distortions by tariffs and the shutdown are probably inflating the figure.

Strategy reported its fourth-largest Bitcoin purchase of the year on Tuesday, scooping up the digital asset with proceeds that partly came from preferred shares.

The Tysons Corner, Virginia-based firm purchased 2,500 BTC last week for $168 million, a press release showed. That lifted the company’s holdings to around 717,100 Bitcoin, which was worth about $48 billion as Bitcoin edged down to nearly $67,000, according to CoinGecko.

To fund its latest acquisition, Strategy issued $90.5 million worth of common stock. Meanwhile, the firm sold $78.5 million worth of its variable rate, or STRC, preferred stock. The product currently pays monthly dividends at an annualized rate of 11.25% in cash.

The balance underscores a shift in Strategy’s approach to acquiring Bitcoin in recent months, as the company’s total value has approached that of its holdings. Issuing preferred shares has become a bigger priority, as products that Michael Saylor has described as “digital credit.”

Crypto market drowns in red as bitcoin falls to $68,000

Traders are bracing for a heavy week of macroeconomic events, including Fed minutes and the core PCE inflation report.

What to know:

Bitcoin wilts, pushing the broader market into the red.
Losses have hit 85 out of the top 100 tokens.
The sell-off comes despite weaker U.S. inflation data that strengthened expectations for at least two Federal Reserve rate cuts.
Traders are bracing for a heavy week of macroeconomic events, including Fed minutes and the core PCE inflation report.

The market weakness looks particularly disappointing against the backdrop of the weak U.S. consumer price index data released last week that kept hopes of Fed rate cuts alive.

The CPI growth slowed to 2.4% year-on-year in January from 2.7% in December, the official data showed, reinforcing expectations for at least two 25 basis point rate cuts by the Fed this year. This resulted in the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield falling to 4.05%, the lowest since early December. Bitcoin rallied, rising from nearly $66,800 on friday to over $70,000 over the weekend, but failed to establish a foothold there.

Markets will assess both the monthly momentum and year-on-year trend for implications for the policy path." Ianeva added.

In traditional markets, Mark Nash of Jupiter Asset Management, a high-profile yen bear has flipped bullish, forecasting 8–9% yen appreciation, particularly against the Swiss franc.

The yen and bitcoin have hit a record positive correlation in recent months, which makes any yen strength a key catalyst for bitcoin bulls.

Will Sticky Inflation Derail Fed Cuts and the 2026 Stock Rally?

The closely watched US January CPI report comes out on Friday morning.
Headline annual inflation and core CPI are both seen rising 2.5%.
Here’s what to watch and how markets could react.

The report, originally slated for earlier in the week but postponed due to the partial government shutdown, comes on the heels of a surprisingly strong January jobs report that added 130,000 nonfarm payrolls and ticked the unemployment rate down to 4.3%.

What to Expect
Analysts predict a 0.3% month-over-month rise in headline inflation, translating to a 2.5% year-over-year increase, down from December’s 2.7% reading. This would mark the lowest annual rate since May 2025.

Bottom Line
In short, Friday’s January CPI release isn’t just another data point; it’s a key input into the Fed’s rate‑cut calculus and a potential inflection point for risk assets. A cooperative number keeps the soft‑landing, gradual‑cut story intact. A hotter‑than‑expected print could reset those expectations quickly.

#BinanceBitcoinSAFUFund

Key Takeaways

Binance’s SAFU fund purchased $300 million in Bitcoin, increasing its total holdings to 10,455 BTC.
The purchase is part of a planned $1 billion conversion of SAFU stablecoins to BTC over 30 days, with an $800 million rebalance safeguard.
The move follows a sharp early-February Bitcoin selloff that highlighted exchange backstops and transparency concerns.

SAFU’s Role Tested Amid Bitcoin Price

A “user protection fund” is supposed to be there on the worst day, not the best day.

Shifting a large chunk of SAFU from stablecoins into BTC trades one risk for another: stablecoin and issuer risk versus Bitcoin price volatility.

That volatility has been on display. Bitcoin slid sharply in early February, with a one-day drop of about 12.6% to around $63,525 on Feb. 5 amid broader risk-off moves and forced liquidations.

Gold and Silver Rally Through Ongoing Market Volatility

Silver whipsawed again Thursday, plunging as much as 17% before rebounding 6% in Asian trading. The metal has now lost over a third of its value since hitting an all-time high of $121.64 on January 29.

Thin liquidity is amplifying every move. Silver’s smaller market makes it volatile even in calm conditions. Recent swings, however, are the most extreme since 1980. Market makers are widening spreads and stepping back, leaving liquidity weakest precisely when it’s needed most.

Chinese buyers — who powered much of the rally — have stepped aside. Prices in Shanghai have flipped to a discount versus global benchmarks. The nine-day Lunar New Year break starting February 16 is keeping traders light on positions, draining demand as volatility peaks.

That kind of instability rarely stays contained. It quickly spills into margin rules, risk controls, and forced selling across futures markets.

Scott Bessent defends Donald Trump’s Fed nominee

Scott Bessent, the treasury secretary, is testifying to Congress on Wednesday and Thursday. Mr Bessent has spent months auditioning candidates to chair the Federal Reserve. Last week Donald Trump picked Kevin Warsh. Now Mr Bessent will need to give Mr Warsh’s nomination a big push in the Senate. His confirmation, normally a formality, has hit a snag, called Thom Tillis.
The Republican, a member of the Senate Banking Committee who has often sparred with Mr Trump, has vowed to block all Fed nominations until the Department of Justice ends its dubious criminal investigation of renovation work at the Fed. This, the Fed says, is part of a campaign by the president to press it to lower interest rates. Assuming Mr Tillis and the White House find common ground, the spotlight will soon shift from Jerome Powell, the current chair, to Mr Warsh.

#TrumpEndsShutdown

Mr Trump signed a bill to end the partial government shutdown, after it narrowly passed the House of Representatives by 217-214 votes. The measure will fund several agencies until September and the Department of Homeland Security until February 13th, allowing lawmakers to continue negotiating restrictions on immigration-enforcement agents.

#USGovShutdown

America’s Senate passed a spending package to fund most of the government, but not in time to prevent a partial shutdown over the weekend. The House of Representatives must still approve the agreement and will not be in session until Monday. Senators also voted to keep the Department of Homeland Security running for two weeks while Democrats and the White House negotiate over immigration enforcement.

Tariffs take a toll on America’s imports
Nearly a year after Donald Trump began raising tariffs, their effects are starting to show in America’s trade data. Between August and October the merchandise-trade deficit fell by 40% year on year. Tariffs have affected trading partners differently. Imports from China fell by 42%, and those from Canada by 9%. Imports from Mexico, meanwhile, rose by 4% and those from Vietnam soared by 34%. The disruption will remain visible in trade figures for November, due on Thursday.
Although tariffs are at their highest levels since the 1930s, they are lower than Mr Trump threatened they would be. Importers hoping for stability, however, may be disappointed. This week Mr Trump proposed new levies on South Korea and Canada. Betting markets expect the Supreme Court to rule soon against some of Mr Trump’s tariffs, which could lead to another chaotic resetting of levies. And later this year the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement is up for review.

The Federal Reserve left its benchmark interest rate unchanged, as expected, after cutting at three consecutive meetings beginning in September. Two of the central bank’s governors voted for a quarter-point reduction. The Fed noted that America’s unemployment rate shows “signs of stabilisation” and that economic activity had expanded at a “solid pace”. It did not suggest when it might next cut rates.

HIGHLIGHTS

FOMC meeting expected to keep rates steady, amid mixed inflation and labor signals.
Experts have noted that the focus will be on Powell's speech for guidance regarding monetary policy this year.
Bitcoin historically reacts to FOMC decisions, showing pre- and post-meeting volatility.

Today, market focus is on the FOMC meeting as the latest rate decision will be announced. The Federal Reserve announces policy at 2:00 p.m. ET, followed by Chair Jerome Powell at 2:30 p.m. ET. Markets expect no rate change, with pricing showing near certainty, despite active debate among policymakers.

Notably, Bitcoin had climbed above $90,000 earlier in the day ahead of today’s FOMC meeting. The flagship crypto is trading just below this psychological level at press time. In addition to the Fed meeting, Tesla, Microsoft, and META report earnings today, which could impact BTC and the broader crypto market.

#Mag7Earnings

Investors have made a pile of money recently by focusing on niche stocks in the AI trade. Earnings from some of the world’s biggest technology companies this week will offer an indication of whether they should stick to that strategy in 2026.

The Magnificent Seven tech giants — Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Apple Inc., Meta Platforms Inc., Microsoft Corp., Nvidia Corp. and Tesla Inc. — have led the stock market higher for much of the past three years. But that reversed at the end of 2025 as Wall Street grew skeptical of the hundreds of billions of dollars the companies are spending to develop artificial intelligence and when the returns on those investments will materialize.

An index tracking the group closed at a record on Oct. 29, and since then the shares of five of the seven members are down and trailing the S&P 500 Index. Alphabet, which has soared almost 20% during that stretch, and Amazon.com are the only stocks in the green

In response, traders have been piling into the recipients of Big Tech’s largesse. Memory and storage maker Sandisk Corp. is up more than 130% since the Magnificent Seven index hit an all-time high and then retreated, while Micron Technology Inc. has jumped 76% and Western Digital Corp. has gained gained 67% in that time. Power producers and generator makers have also advanced, and even materials companies are outperforming on expectations for accelerating economic growth and the appeal of cheaper valuations.

Big Tech Earnings Land With 2026’s AI Winners Still In Question
Key takeaways

Earnings from big technology companies will offer an indication of whether investors should stick to their strategy of focusing on niche stocks in the AI trade in 2026.
The Magnificent Seven tech giants have led the stock market higher for much of the past three years, but their shares have recently trailed the S&P 500 Index, with only Alphabet and Amazon.com in the green.
The companies are under pressure to show that their vast sums of capital expenditures are starting to pay off, with investors expecting them to post 20% profit growth for the fourth quarter, which would be the slowest pace since early 2023.

The Magnificent Seven index is trading at 28 times profits expected over the next 12 months, below previous peaks and roughly in line with its average over the past decade, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Nvidia shares, for example, have soared 1,184% since the end of 2022, yet they’re priced at 24 times anticipated profits, slightly above the S&P 500’s multiple of 22
