On October 12, Evernorth Holdings (XRPN) debuted on Nasdaq as the largest publicly traded XRP treasury company in the world, holding 473 million XRP. The company is backed by Ripple, and CEO Asheesh Birla is a former senior Ripple executive; the article suggests Evernorth could become 'the Strategy of XRP,' encouraging investors to buy XRP much as Strategy's Bitcoin buying does. XRP has fallen 28% in 2026, while Evernorth's holdings amount to less than 1% of the 63 billion XRP in circulation. Spot XRP ETFs hold 1.2 billion XRP, more than twice Evernorth's amount, but they have had little to no impact on XRP's price this year, so the article expects Evernorth to have similarly little effect in 2027.

- Crypto Market Ends Week Under Pressure from Inflation and Capital Outflows Fixygen Review
Crypto markets ended the week under pressure from hotter U.S. inflation data and outflows from spot ETFs. Bitcoin traded near $82,000 and Ethereum around $2,450 after U.S. CPI rose 0.6% month over month and 3.7% year over year, with PPI up 1.3%. Over four sessions, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of about $146 million and spot Ethereum ETFs lost about $250.4 million, a combined total of roughly $396.4 million. MSCI will change its rules to exclude companies whose financial characteristics resemble investment funds, effective after the November review, with the final list due November 11. Strategy and Metaplanet are among the affected firms, and Strategy shares fell more than 4% on October 16. Meanwhile, Strive Inc. reported Bitcoin reserves estimated at about 35,595 BTC after two announced purchases.
- XRP ETFs See $770K Inflows: XRP Price Forecast Targets $1.47
XRP was trading at $1.29, down 4.36% over 24 hours and pressing on $1.2659 support, while 24-hour volume rose 40.18% to $3.01 billion and the token is down 12.22% in October. The slide follows hotter-than-expected September PPI inflation of 6.3% (versus 5.3% expected) and core PPI of 5.0% (versus 4.4%), which raised the odds of further rate hikes. Spot XRP ETFs still posted small inflows, while Evernorth is deploying its XRP treasury. According to the analysis, a daily close below $1.2659 would open a path toward $1.00–$1.10, while buyers would need to reclaim $1.4711 and then $1.6238 to move higher. Six of the nine Octobers in the seasonal table finished lower, and this October is tracking that pattern so far.
- Ethereum, Altcoins See 'Outsized Drawdowns' Due to Macro Pressures
Ethereum, XRP and Solana fell more sharply than Bitcoin on the day, cutting total crypto market cap 2.5% to $2.8 trillion. Ethereum dropped 5.5% to $289 billion, XRP fell 5.1% to $82.4 billion, Solana slipped 3.8% to $60.6 billion, and Bitcoin lost 3.1% to $1.6 trillion. Experts cite macro pressure, including 3.7% annual consumer inflation and a 28% chance of an October rate hike on the Myriad prediction market. Derive.xyz's Nick Forster said hedging on his platform doubled as whales pulled back from spring bets, while Bitwise's Max Shannon noted $8 billion less altcoin futures open interest since early October as traders took profits. CoinShares' Luke Nolan said altcoins are most sensitive to tighter liquidity and a strong dollar, and a Bitcoin move above 80k could spark a sharp altcoin rebound.
- Why Is Crypto Down Today ? Nearly $1 Billion in Leveraged Positions Just Got Wiped Out .
Nearly $1 billion in leveraged crypto positions were liquidated as Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and most of the 26 largest cryptocurrencies tracked fell sharply. Bitcoin dropped 3.2% to $80,957, Ethereum fell 5.8%, Solana 4.9%, and total market capitalization fell 5.5%, with smaller coins such as Zcash down 12.6%. The article links the forced selling, a liquidation cascade, to broader pressures including an 8% drop in South Korea's KOSPI, U.S. inflation at 3.7%, and net outflows of $261.46 million from spot Bitcoin funds on October 14. Bitcoin is hovering near the $80,000–$81,000 support zone, and the article flags the 50-week moving average at $76,618 as the next level to watch if prices fall further.
- Bitcoin holds above $80,000 as Asian stock rout drags altcoins lower
Bitcoin dipped to just above $80,000 around 02:30 UTC, near its Oct. 8 low, before recovering to about $81,200, down roughly 0.5% since midnight UTC. A sharp selloff in Asian equities, with South Korea's Kospi plunging 8% and triggering circuit breakers, and a roughly 1% drop in Nasdaq 100 futures weighed on the market after a hotter-than-expected U.S. inflation report. The odds of an October Fed rate hike jumped to nearly 47% before easing to about 26%. Altcoins fell harder: the CoinDesk 80 slid 2.2% versus 0.7% for the CoinDesk 5, ether dropped 2.0% to near $2,370, and pump.fun lost 9.4%. Nearly $1 billion in crypto futures positions were liquidated over 24 hours, up from about $136 million a day earlier, with ether longs worth $200 million liquidated versus $115 million in bitcoin.
- Bitcoin ETFs shed $261M as XRP funds buck weekly outflow trend
US spot Bitcoin ETFs returned to net outflows on Wednesday, with about $262 million withdrawn after $176 million in inflows the day before, bringing this week's net outflows to $151 million. Bitcoin fell below $82,000 following the US inflation report and traded near $80,741, down 3.2% over 24 hours. Ether ETFs shed around $130 million on Wednesday, pushing weekly outflows to $190 million, while Solana and Zcash ETFs also posted net outflows for the week. XRP ETFs bucked the trend, attracting about $740,000 on Wednesday and remaining the only category tracked with positive net flows this week.

- Duong Son Ba Arrested, Hai Phong Thermal Power Loses Lawsuit and Must Pay VND 115 Billion to Partner
Hai Phong Thermal Power (HND) disclosed an appellate ruling in a coal supply dispute with Dan Ka Mineral, under which the court accepted the plaintiff's appeal and ordered the company to pay nearly VND 115 billion, including a coal price difference of over VND 80.15 billion and interest of over VND 34.65 billion. The dispute stems from a 2021 contract, with disagreement over price adjustments after global coal prices rose sharply in 2022. Duong Son Ba, the company's general director, was arrested on 21 May 2026 over alleged forgery of documents of an agency or organisation, and the board dismissed him from the post on 13 October, with no successor yet announced. In the first half of 2026, the company reported net revenue of nearly VND 6,081 billion, up 8%, and after-tax profit of over VND 508 billion, up nearly 25%.
- Iran threatens to use the 'father of all missiles' to strike adversaries' energy facilities
Major General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, senior adviser to the IRGC commander, said at a rally in Sari on October 18 that Iran has prepared the most advanced missiles and will respond to any aggression. He warned that energy infrastructure and investments belonging to powers Tehran deems aggressive in the region could fall within Iranian missile range. His remarks answered US President Donald Trump's threat to use the GBU-43/B MOAB, often called the 'mother of all bombs' and weighing about 14 tons, against Iran's energy infrastructure and nuclear sites. Naqdi said Iran also possesses these bombs, having seized some that failed to detonate in the 12-day war, and called Trump's impatience a 'public admission of defeat'.
- Strategy on verge of golden cross, just weeks after bitcoin flashed same bullish signal
Strategy (MSTR) is about to form a golden cross, when its 50-day average rises above its 200-day average, possibly as early as Monday, just weeks after bitcoin showed the same bullish signal. The company holds $69.81 billion in bitcoin, and its stock has had two earlier golden crosses followed by big rallies: from $15.57 in September 2020 to $127.29 by February 2021, a 717% gain, and from $25.29 on March 2, 2023 to a peak of $473.83 in November 2024, up 1,774%. The article stresses the signal is unreliable, though: since 1999 MSTR has had 19 golden crosses, and only 10 were followed by a higher price 12 months later, a 50% hit rate, with a median 12-month return of just 3.3%. The two worst cases, in 2001 and 2007, were followed by a 61% loss.
- Director of the HCMC Institute of Economics, Natural Resources and Environment: Four major corporations have raised plans to invest in Vietnam, but pulled back when asked about power capacity
At a seminar co-organized by Tien Phong newspaper and the HCMC Department of Construction on October 16, TS. Phạm Viết Thuận said the city should treat infrastructure as an integrated system rather than focusing only on transport. He argued that 11 main and 13 secondary infrastructure categories, including power, water drainage, industrial zones and logistics, need to be synchronized for the city to develop its economy. To address flooding, he proposed surveying 159 flood-prone points and building ecological lakes at major spots. He also noted that four large corporations had considered investing in Vietnam but withdrew when asked about grid power capacity. Department director Trần Quang Lâm said capital mobilization and land policy need further study, while traffic congestion, flooding and pollution remain the city’s top priorities.
- Live updates: Bitcoin tags $83,000 and slips back as chip stocks lead a rebound
Bitcoin climbed from an overnight low near $80,700 to just above $83,000 early Monday, then slipped back to about $82,400 as sellers stepped in, and was up 0.3% over 24 hours. The bounce followed tech stocks, with Nasdaq 100 futures up 1.1%, snapping a weeklong 5.5% selloff, and an ETF tracking chipmakers jumping 3%. WTI crude recovered to $98.55 after touching $96.72, as the U.S. warned citizens across 12 Middle East locations of possible flight cancellations and airspace closures, raising fears of fresh strikes on Iran and disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. In Europe, the Stoxx 600 fell 0.8% after protests in France. Bitcoin would need to move through $84,000, its ceiling on October 13 and 14, to signal that the tech rebound is lifting it too.
- Baystreet . ca - When Might October Nasdaq Correction End ?
The Nasdaq Composite (QQQ ETF) is 6.96% below its 52-week high after falling 5.52% last week, close to the 10% threshold for a technical correction. The article says high oil prices, sustained by Iran's control of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, keep September CPI and PPI rising, and that Iran wants higher oil prices to hurt the Republican Party before the midterm elections, so the correction in beaten-down stocks may continue. CoreWeave (CRWV) lost 25.21% last week, closing just 3% above its yearly low, while bears holding a 17% short float bet its $50 billion debt is unsustainable. Nebius (NBIS) fell 25% and Twilio (TWLO) dropped 15.6%, while Autodesk (ADSK), Salesforce (CRM) and Adobe (ADBE) drew buying. The article suggests volatility may ease after the midterms.
