Bitcoin and major cryptocurrencies extended their gains as a broad risk-asset rally and a $730 million crypto liquidation wave fueled a short squeeze, pushing total crypto market capitalization to $2.66 trillion.
Short liquidations surged to $448 million from $179 million a day earlier, while U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded $75 million and $53 million in net inflows, respectively.
Continued short covering and renewed ETF demand could support further crypto gains, although mixed performance across major altcoins may limit the breadth of the rally.
JUST has rebranded JustLend DAO as JustLend under its updated brand architecture, accompanied by the launch of a redesigned official website. The refreshed platform presents its lending markets, TRX staking and TRON Energy services in a clearer structure.

HTX has launched a winter Earn promotion offering boosted APYs of up to 10% on seven cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, with subscription quotas reaching approximately $14 million per user. Eligible assets include BTC, ETH, TRX, USDT, USDC, USDS and USDD, with each asset eligible for up to $2 million in 7-day fixed-term subscriptions. The promotion could encourage users to retain assets on HTX, increase platform deposits and support demand for participating tokens, although the short-term campaign does not guarantee broader market recovery.
Bitcoin recovered above $80,000 on Thursday after a midterm-driven selloff, as improving risk sentiment following the Democrats' congressional sweep lifted crypto and broader markets. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted about $75 million on Wednesday and Ether ETFs took in $53 million, while ETH and SOL each gained nearly 4%; Democrats have also indicated opposition to the CLARITY Act. Renewed ETF demand and easing geopolitical concerns could support further crypto gains, although uncertainty over U.S. crypto legislation may limit momentum.
Binance will gradually restore withdrawals for additional assets following its security incident, including UNI, AAVE, VIRTUAL, MORPHO and ASTER across multiple blockchain networks.
The phased resumption begins November 5 at 04:00 UTC across ETH, BSC, BASE, TRX, MATIC and SUI, with each asset subject to security and readiness checks while deposits remain open.
The withdrawal recovery could improve liquidity and restore market confidence as Binance progressively reopens access to affected assets.
Cryptocurrencies rallied following the U.S. midterm election results, with total crypto market capitalization reaching $2.62 trillion and Bitcoin touching $78,696 as electoral uncertainty eased.
Bitcoin and Ethereum each gained 1.55% overnight, while Zcash surged 9.2%; however, U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded $116 million and $85 million in net outflows, respectively.
The relief rally could extend if political uncertainty continues fading, but concerns about resistance to crypto-friendly policies and persistent ETF outflows may limit further upside.
Bitcoin trades near $78,330 and Ethereum around $2,317 as US midterm election results bring future cryptocurrency regulation and the CLARITY Act back into focus. Bitcoin and Ethereum gained 1.87% and 2.41% over 24 hours, but US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $399 million in outflows while Strategy purchased another 811 BTC worth $65.5 million. Election uncertainty, institutional outflows and upcoming US employment data could intensify crypto volatility, with Bitcoin's $76,000–$79,000 range remaining critical for near-term direction.
Bitcoin briefly plunged to approximately $75,700 as early U.S. midterm results raised the prospect of a Democratic sweep, before recovering to around $76,700 during Asian trading.
The selloff followed a drop of more than $2,000 from near $78,000, while S&P 500 futures fell 1.3% and Nasdaq 100 futures slid 2.3%; Bitcoin was little changed over 24 hours.
Uncertainty over potential regulatory scrutiny and the CLARITY Act could keep crypto markets volatile as election results are finalized.
Justin Sun has filed a motion seeking sanctions against Trump-linked World Liberty Financial, alleging the DeFi venture concealed its UAE citizenship during their ongoing legal dispute. Sun claims World Liberty amended its court disclosures to identify 22 ownership-chain members and citizenship across Florida, Delaware, Puerto Rico and the UAE, potentially complicating federal court jurisdiction. The escalating legal battle could add pressure to sentiment around WLFI as the dispute raises further questions about the project's ownership disclosures and governance.
Binance will reopen withdrawals for additional crypto assets across multiple blockchain networks, restoring access to affected users.
The reopenings begin Tuesday at 04:00 GMT and cover assets on BSC, ETH, SOL, XRP, SUI, ARBITRUM, OPTIMISM, TRX, and BASE networks.
The resumption of withdrawals could improve liquidity and restore normal transfer access for affected crypto assets.
Crypto markets remain under pressure as a recent Binance hack and heavy Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF outflows offset institutional buying and a rebound in some major altcoins.
Strategy acquired 811 BTC for $65.5 million, lifting its holdings to 849,327 BTC, while U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $643 million in net outflows and Ethereum ETFs saw $156 million leave.
Persistent ETF outflows and security concerns could pressure crypto prices further, although continued institutional accumulation may help limit downside in Bitcoin.
Bitcoin climbed roughly 1% to $78,600, extending its winning streak to three days as crypto markets recovered from last week's record $6.3 billion Binance hack.
BTC rebounded from around $77,600, while ETH and BNB gained nearly 2% and ZEC climbed 3% as broader risk sentiment improved across Asian markets.
Bitcoin could regain momentum toward $80,000 if the tech-stock recovery continues, but persistent macroeconomic pressures and upcoming U.S. midterm elections could keep volatility elevated.
A hacker converted approximately $158.25 million of stolen altcoins into 70,480 ETH. The sales included 7.02 million UNI worth $39.63 million, 217.5 million ENA worth $33.93 million, 7.77 trillion PEPE worth $31.66 million, 2.57 million LINK worth $26.05 million, and 127,953 AAVE worth $14.27 million.
Other sold assets included 21.85 million ONDO worth $6.62 million and 17.32 million WLD worth $6.09 million. The affected tokens declined by as much as 15% after the attack.
Frozen assets include 1.77 billion USDT, 823 million USDC and 74.56 million ARB. The hacker reportedly still holds about $23 million in FUN, ZAMA, ZRO and RSR.
Reported total holdings also include 495,724 ETH, 18,270 BTC, 682.9 million TRX and 970,545 SOL. ETH is the attacker’s main on-chain settlement asset following the conversions.
A hawkish Fed outlook and renewed AI-related jitters are weighing on crypto markets, with total cryptocurrency market capitalization slipping 0.43% to $2.69 trillion.
Bitcoin traded at $79,940.23, down 0.54% overnight, as PCE inflation rose to 3.6% annually and two FOMC members supported a quarter-point rate hike; U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs still recorded $137 million in net inflows.
Persistent inflation and rising rate-hike expectations could intensify selling pressure across crypto, despite continued institutional demand for Bitcoin.
Polygon Labs is expanding its Open Money Stack to Solana, enabling businesses to connect bank funding, crypto wallets, and payouts through a single integration.
Solana recorded approximately $5.76 trillion in stablecoin transfers from January 1 to October 27, while Polygon says Kira is among the first customers using the integration.
The expansion could accelerate Solana's adoption for real-world payments and stablecoin transfers, although increased network activity may not translate directly into demand for SOL.
Polygon Labs is expanding its Open Money Stack to Solana, enabling businesses to connect bank funding, crypto wallets, and payouts through a single integration.
Solana recorded approximately $5.76 trillion in stablecoin transfers from January 1 to October 27, while Polygon says Kira is among the first customers using the integration.
The expansion could accelerate Solana's adoption for real-world payments and stablecoin transfers, although increased network activity may not translate directly into demand for SOL.
Polygon has integrated Solana into its Open Money Stack, expanding a payments platform that connects bank accounts, crypto transfers, and global payouts.
The integration connects Solana with Polygon, Ethereum, and TRON, while stablecoin supply approaches $290 billion and Solana reports more than $5.5 trillion in stablecoin volume in 2026.
The move could increase demand for Solana-based stablecoin payments and strengthen SOL's ecosystem adoption, although broader payment usage does not guarantee direct buying pressure for SOL.
The U.S. sanctioned 10 individuals and one entity for alleged financial networks laundering cryptocurrency and other payments tied to North Korean IT workers and the regime’s weapons programs.
Treasury said two Russian nationals allegedly converted $3.5 million and nearly $2 million in crypto, while the sanctions notice identified eight cryptocurrency addresses across Ethereum and Tron.
The action could intensify scrutiny of crypto transactions linked to sanctioned networks and increase compliance pressure on exchanges and digital-asset businesses.
Bitcoin fell toward $80,000 as hawkish dissent at the Federal Reserve and disappointing Alphabet earnings triggered a broader risk-off move across crypto and technology stocks.
BTC dropped 1.4% to around $80,100 after touching $79,600, while ETH fell 1.7% and AI-linked tokens NEAR and TAO slid 7.8% and 3.1%, respectively; crypto liquidations surged 84% to $337.4 million.
Bitcoin could face further downside if inflation data reinforces rate-hike concerns, although $137 million in spot Bitcoin ETF inflows on Wednesday marked a third consecutive day of net inflows.
TRX options have launched on Blockchain.com, expanding access to derivatives tied to the TRON ecosystem through its consumer app in eligible jurisdictions.
The launch adds TRX to Blockchain.com's options lineup, with access subject to local laws and regulatory requirements, as TRON reports more than 411 million user accounts and over $94 billion in circulating USDT.
Broader access to TRX options could increase trading participation and strengthen TRON's market visibility, though the impact on demand for TRX remains uncertain.
Tether blacklisted at least 33 addresses on the TRON network holding approximately $27 million in USDT, according to TrustSniffer.
The largest flagged address held around $7.8 million, while Tether has not publicly disclosed the reasons for the coordinated action and the monitored balances may differ from the exact amounts frozen.
The move could intensify scrutiny of stablecoin issuer freeze powers and raise concerns among USDT holders about centralized address controls.
The crypto market capitalization rose 0.79% to $2.7 trillion as investors awaited the Federal Reserve's interest-rate decision, with Bitcoin gaining 0.96% to $80,647.93.
More than 30 of the top 100 cryptocurrencies advanced over 1%, while U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted $176 million in net inflows, including $152 million for BlackRock's IBIT.
Positive momentum could continue if the Fed's guidance supports risk appetite, but expectations of future rate hikes could intensify volatility across crypto markets.
Bitcoin climbed 2% above $81,000 as major cryptocurrencies rallied ahead of the Federal Reserve's rate decision, extending a recovery from Monday's drop below $80,000. HYPE gained nearly 6%, ZEC rose 5%, and BNB and SOL each advanced about 3%, while traders awaited Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's comments on potential December rate hikes. A dovish outlook could extend the crypto rebound, while hawkish signals could renew selling pressure across digital assets.
Bitcoin climbed nearly 2% to just below $81,000 ahead of the Federal Reserve's rate decision, recovering its weekend decline toward $79,000 as crypto markets broadly rebounded.
ZEC surged 8% to around $1,320, while HYPE gained nearly 5% and XRP, DOGE, ETH and SOL also advanced; Galaxy's Alex Thorn said Bitcoin may have entered an accumulation phase after a June bottom.
Bitcoin could extend its recovery if bullish momentum persists, but Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's comments on the December rate outlook could trigger renewed pressure across risk assets.
Cancore raised $7.2 million in seed funding at a $60 million fully diluted token valuation to expand its cross-chain trading platform for tokenized assets and DeFi liquidity.
The platform has processed more than $86 million across over 160,000 trades since launching on Canton mainnet in April, generating more than $700,000 in revenue, according to its CEO.
The funding and reported activity could strengthen Cancore's expansion prospects, while adoption and the planned CNRX token launch remain key milestones to watch.
Crypto enters a pivotal Fed and Bank of Japan week with a $2.19 billion decline in total stablecoin market capitalization and weaker decentralized exchange trading, signaling reduced liquidity across the market.
DEX spot volume fell 12.21% to $44.09 billion, while Bitcoin traded below $80,000 as markets priced in potential December rate hikes from both central banks; meanwhile, Strive added 6,182 BTC to its holdings.
Hawkish guidance from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh or BoJ Governor Kazuo Ueda could intensify pressure on crypto prices if shrinking stablecoin supply and lighter trading activity persist.
TRON released the mandatory GreatVoyage-v4.8.2.4 upgrade, codenamed Empedocles, to improve network execution consistency and stability in rare cases.
The update also optimizes smart-contract storage and metadata handling for edge cases, with node operators urged to upgrade promptly.
The improvements could strengthen TRON network reliability and support confidence in its ecosystem, though the direct impact on TRX demand remains uncertain.
Crypto markets remain mixed as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $636 million in net outflows on Thursday, reversing $525 million in inflows a day earlier. Bitcoin trades near $81,892 while Ethereum ETFs saw $111 million in outflows, and crypto liquidations reached $321 million, including $261 million in liquidated long positions. Persistent ETF outflows, a strengthening dollar, and rising oil prices could pressure crypto markets despite near-flat overall capitalization.
CoinDCX denies a fresh hack after blockchain investigators flagged approximately $16 million in suspicious crypto outflows, saying its active wallets and customer funds remain unaffected.
The exchange attributes the transactions to compromised deposit addresses from its July 2025 breach, while investigator ZachXBT disputes claims that at least one address was abandoned, citing activity as recently as April and May 2026.
The dispute could intensify scrutiny of CoinDCX's wallet security and potentially weigh on confidence in centralized crypto exchanges.
Tron Inc. ($TRON), formerly SRM Entertainment, rose about 21% on October 22 after shifting from a TRX holder to a TRON network operator. The U.S.-listed company was elected as one of TRON's 27 Super Representatives on October 19, and its node reached No. 1 on the network two days later with more than 3.71 billion TRX delegated.
The company holds more than 700 million TRX and has repositioned its balance sheet toward a digital asset treasury strategy. Its Super Representative status enables it to participate in block production and node staking revenue.
TRON processed $2.21 trillion in stablecoin settlement during Q3, representing 73% of on-chain transfer share, according to CoinDesk and Nansen reports cited in the source. USDT supply on TRON reached a record $92.7 billion. In September, the first U.S. spot staking TRX ETF, TRXS, listed on Cboe.
