DEX

DEXs are peer-to-peer marketplaces where users trade cryptocurrencies directly from their wallets via Automated Market Makers (AMM) or on-chain order books. By removing central authorities, DEXs like Uniswap and Raydium prioritize privacy and user sovereignty. The 2026 DEX landscape is dominated by intent-based trading, MEV protection, and cross-chain liquidity aggregation.

Bitcoin Corrects Below $113K As Retail Traders Panic Sell

Bitcoin Corrects Below $113K As Retail Traders Panic Sell

The post Bitcoin Corrects Below $113K As Retail Traders Panic Sell appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Retail crypto traders seemingly flipped bearish after Bitcoin failed to pick itself up from a recent dip below $113,000, clocking a 17-day low. “Retail traders have done a complete 180 after Bitcoin failed to rally and dipped below $113,000,” said analysts at blockchain analytics firm Santiment on Wednesday. Santiment also reported that the past 24 hours have marked “the most bearish sentiment seen on social media” since June 22, when fears of war in the Middle East caused a cascade of panic sells. Santiment said negative social sentiment is a good thing for dip buyers, especially when there is “blood in the streets and fear is maximized.” Short-term retail traders are also more inclined to panic sell or scalp profits than their diamond-handed counterparts, who view the asset class as a longer-term investment.  Santiment said that the panic selling was a “good sign of an upcoming dip bounce.”   Crowd sentiment has flipped to ‘ultra bearish.’ Source: Santiment  Bitcoin falls to support zone  Bitcoin (BTC) fell to $112,656 in late trading on Tuesday on Coinbase, according to TradingView, its lowest price since Aug. 3 when it fell toward support levels at around $112,000.  BTC has now retreated by 8.5% from its all-time high last week of just over $124,000, while the total crypto market capitalization has dropped below $4 trillion to a two-week low.    Related: Why is Bitcoin crashing and will $112K be the final bottom? The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index has slipped into “Fear” with a rating of 44 out of 100, its lowest level since late June.  “Markets move in the opposite direction of the crowd’s expectations,” said Santiment.  Will bull cycle history rhyme?  Market corrections during a bull cycle are nothing new and are a healthy part of the larger cycle. Similar pullbacks, often called “bear traps,”…

SEC Chairman Paul Atkins Says Few Cryptocurrencies Can Be Considered Securities! Here Are the Details

SEC Chairman Paul Atkins Says Few Cryptocurrencies Can Be Considered Securities! Here Are the Details

The post SEC Chairman Paul Atkins Says Few Cryptocurrencies Can Be Considered Securities! Here Are the Details appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins reiterated that he is taking a more moderate approach to cryptocurrency regulation compared to the previous administration. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins: “Very Few Token Securities” Atkins noted that only a “very small number” of crypto assets could be considered securities. “The token itself is not a security, and probably not. In my opinion, very few tokens are securities. The key here is how the token is packaged and presented to investors,” Atkins said at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium on Tuesday. This announcement follows the SEC’s launch last month of its “Project Crypto” initiative, which Atkins described as aiming to “modernize securities laws” and move American financial markets on-chain. This project stands in sharp contrast to former SEC Chairman Gary Gensler’s approach, which defined the majority of crypto assets as securities. “A new era has begun for the crypto industry. We are committed to innovation, and we now want to embrace it,” Atkins said. In a post from his X account, he added, “We must create a framework that protects crypto markets from future regulatory abuse.” The project has also received positive feedback from industry analysts, with Bernstein describing the initiative as “the boldest and most transformative vision ever put forth by an SEC chairman,” while Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said Project Crypto could be the investment roadmap for the next five years. *This is not investment advice.

UK sanctions crypto exchange tied to Russian ruble stablecoin

UK sanctions crypto exchange tied to Russian ruble stablecoin

The UK sanctioned a Kyrgyzstan-based bank and crypto exchange on Wednesday, citing their support for A7A5, a stablecoin backed by the Russian ruble.A7A5 has been used to evade sanctions that the US and UK imposed on Russia after it invaded Ukraine in 2022, according to crypto forensics firms TRM Labs and Elliptic. “If the Kremlin thinks they can hide their desperate attempts to soften the blow of our sanctions by laundering transactions through dodgy crypto networks — they are sorely mistaken,” UK Sanctions Minister Stephen Doughty said in a statement. “These sanctions keep up the pressure on Putin at a critical time and crack down on the illicit networks being used to funnel money into his war chest.”The UK sanctioned Capital Bank, a Kyrgyzstan-based bank, and cryptocurrency exchange Grinex, which crypto tracing firm TRM Labs has described as a “successor platform” to Garantex, a previously-sanctioned Russian exchange. It also sanctioned Meer, a centralised crypto exchange registered on December 9, 2024 — the same day that Grinex and A7A5 were established, according to TRM. The ruble-pegged A7A5 is issued by Kyrgyzstani company Old Vector and designed to facilitate the recovery of assets belonging to Garantex customers, according to TRM. About $26 million in Tether’s stablecoin USDT on Garantex was frozen after officials in the US, Germany, and Finland seized the exchange’s primary domain in March. (UK officials did not accuse Tether of aiding in Russian sanctions evasion in their Wednesday notice. But US authorities opened an investigation into the company last year for possible violations of sanctions and anti-money laundering rules, according to a Wall Street Journal report. CEO Paolo Ardoino accused the newspaper of “regurgitating old noise.”) “Former Garantex customers were credited with A7A5 in amounts equivalent to their frozen balances, which could then be traded or redeemed on [Grinex],” TRM wrote in its August 4 report. In late June, crypto forensics firm Elliptic said over $1 billion was being transferred through A7A5 daily, with the aggregate value of the stablecoin’s transfers topping $41 billion. A7A5 is a yield-bearing stablecoin, paying holders 50% of the interest earned on the bank deposits that back it, according to its documentation. It is available on Ethereum and TRON. “We are creating not just a ruble stablecoin, but a tool that gives the market the opportunity to safely enter the ruble and USDT, as well as an alternative to USDT that is not subject to sanctions risks,” the team behind A7A5 has said, according to Elliptic, which did not provide a source for the quote. The stablecoin’s developers did not immediately respond to DL News’ request for comment submitted through the A7A5 website on Wednesday. Its X account did not appear to address Wednesday’s sanctions. “A7A5 is a fully regulated token that has been issued in accordance with Kyrgyzstan’s new legislation, providing an unparalleled level of trust and security for investors,” its website states. In addition to Grinex and Meer, it is also available on sanctioned peer-to-peer exchange Bitpapa; Ethereum-based decentralised exchanges Uniswap and Curve; and a purpose-built DEX dubbed A7A5 DEX. As of late June, the stablecoin had seen $8.5 billion in exchange volume, a figure that does not include volume on peer-to-peer exchanges or over-the-counter brokers. Of that volume, 61% was used to move in and out of rubles; the remainder was used to move in and out of USDT. Last week, the US sanctioned Garantex Europe OU, Grinex, and six associated companies. Last year, Russian finance minister Anton Siluanov said the country was using Bitcoin and digital currencies with international trade partners in an effort to counter Western sanctions. Russia’s experimentation with cryptocurrency follows years of limits on its financial activities abroad.In 2014, the US and other European countries imposed sanctions on Russian companies and individuals after President Vladimir Putin ordered the annexation of Crimea, a region of Ukraine.In 2022, the US and other countries increased Russian sanctions after Putin’s broader invasion of Ukraine.Aleks Gilbert is DL News’ New York-based DeFi correspondent.

Memecoin Launchpad Platform Pump.fun Breaks Total Revenue Record! Here’s All the Data

Memecoin Launchpad Platform Pump.fun Breaks Total Revenue Record! Here’s All the Data

The post Memecoin Launchpad Platform Pump.fun Breaks Total Revenue Record! Here’s All the Data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pump.fun, the leading memecoin launchpad platform within the Solana ecosystem, has reached a remarkable milestone by surpassing $800 million in total revenue. Pump.fun Surpasses $800 Million in Revenue: Competition Heats Up for Solana-Based Memecoin According to on-chain data, the platform has collected $800.6 million in fees to date. Pump generates revenue through a 1% swap fee on all token transactions. Before launching its own DEX, PumpSwap, it charged extraction fees on tokens that were transferred to Raydium when they reached a certain market value. Pump, which kicked off the memecoin craze last year, has been facing serious competition from its new rival, LetsBonk.fun, in recent months. Launched in April 2025, LetsBonk has grown rapidly thanks to Raydium’s LaunchLab integration and the support of the Bonk community. LetsBonk, which surpassed Pump in the number of tokens issued last month, lost the top spot to Pump again this month. Popular trader @WazzCrypto noted that the transfer of LetsBonk’s top 10 memecoin developers to Pump was a decisive factor in this shift. On the revenue side, Pump is generating over $1 million daily, while LetsBonk’s daily revenue has fallen from $1 million to less than $30,000 earlier this month. Pump, meanwhile, raised $600 million in just 12 minutes during its ICO last month. The company is currently running a buyback program above market value to stabilize its token price. Meanwhile, Solana’s lead in the memecoin space has shifted to the Coinbase-backed Base network. Data shows that Base saw an outflow of 57,970 memecoins in just one day, while Solana saw an outflow of 32,760. *This is not investment advice.

To remain sideways ahead of Powell’s Jackson Hole speech

To remain sideways ahead of Powell’s Jackson Hole speech

The post To remain sideways ahead of Powell’s Jackson Hole speech appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. USD/JPY consolidates, failing to reclaim 20-day SMA after rebound from recent lows. Resistance at 148.00 and 148.51; break higher targets 200-day SMA near 149.15. Support lies at 147.50 and 147.00, with further downside toward 50-day SMA if selling resumes. USD/JPY consolidated during Tuesday’s session, ending the day with minimal losses of 0.14%, with the pair trading near familiar levels, below the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 147.86. At the time of writing, the pair trades at 147.61, virtually unchanged as Wednesday’s Asian session begins. From a daily chart standpoint, the pair is set to remain sideways trading with market players waiting for a fresh catalyst, which would come on Friday, with Federal Reserve Chief Jerome Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole. Although there is pressure on the Fed by the Trump administration, the chances of Powell turning dovish are slim, following mixed inflation reports last week. USD/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook The USD/JPY trades below the 20-day SMA, after bouncing off multi-week lows of 146.21, set on August 14. It should be said that the pair has climbed three times straight, unable to conquer 148.00, seen as the first key resistance level. From a momentum standpoint, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hints that buyers remain in control, but the index is headed towards bearish territory. With that said, the USD/JPY first resistance would be the 20-day SMA and 148.00. If surpassed, the next stop would be August’s 12 peak at 148.51, before traders challenge the 200-day SMA at 149.15. On the flip side, if the pair slides below 147.50, the immediate support would be 147.00, followed by the 50-day SMA at 146.63.
