Bitcoin prints a fresh all-time high at $111K
BTC briefly pushed through $111K on Saturday, then drifted between $108K – $110K while coins kept slipping from exchanges into cold wallets. A weekly close north of $109K keeps $115K in play; a drop below $105K points to a summer cooldown.
Ethereum eyes the $3K wall
Post-Pectra momentum carried ETH from $1.8K to $2.9K in under a month. The key band is $2.4K – $2.9K. Hold it and $3K is next; lose it and a dip toward the low-$2K zone is likely.
Cetus hack puts Sui in damage-control mode
A math slip in Cetus DEX let an attacker siphon roughly $223M. Validators froze most funds; about $60M remains missing. A fresh audit and an LP compensation vote are under way.
Stablecoin whales reload the exchanges
Multiple nine-figure batches of USDT and USDC, each well above $250M, moved from treasury wallets to CEXs—classic prelude to heavy spot buying or an alt-season burst.
Metamask airdrop rumors turn up the heat
A leaked screenshot hinting at a MASK token doubled swap volume inside Metamask. ConsenSys stays silent, apart from warning users about fake claim pages.
Solana ETF clock still ticking
SOL chopped between $176 – $188 while traders wait for the SEC’s mid-October verdict. Every D.C. rumor now flips volatility on and off like a switch.
BlackRock’s tokenized Treasuries top $1B in DeFi
The BUIDL fund’s wrapped token, sBUIDL, is now collateral on Euler—another quiet milepost for real-world-asset adoption.
Macro backdrop
US CPI printed flat, yields eased, and Fed futures still price “no change” three weeks out, giving crypto breathing room.
Week-ahead cheat sheet
- BTC: hold $109K → target $115K; slip < $105K → watch $100K.
- ETH: clear $3K for fresh momentum; lose $2.4K and bias turns defensive.
- Stablecoins: another wave of $250M+ deposits = extra firepower for bulls.
- Cetus vote: clear reimbursement plan could revive Sui TVL.
