DigitalX Weekly Crypto Update: Market Trends and Analysis
Market Commentary
After a strong rally to kick off the week, the price of Bitcoin has pulled back, driven by heightened tensions in the Middle East and declines in U.S. stock futures, reflecting a reduced risk appetite amongst investors. Despite producing its largest single day inflows since June, the US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs ended an eight-day streak with a significant US$242.6 million outflow on Tuesday — the largest since the 3rd of September. Similarly, Fidelity’s spot Ethereum ETF (ETHE) experienced its largest daily outflow since inception, contributing to a combined US$48.6 million in outflows from all US-based spot Ethereum ETFs.
Bitwise has officially filed with the SEC for a spot XRP ETF, making it the first asset manager to pursue an ETF that singularly holds XRP. The ETF would hold XRP directly, similar to Bitwise’s existing Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley stated “at Bitwise, we believe blockchains will usher in new, apolitical monetary assets and permissionless applications for the 21st century”. While the filing represents continued progress in the general adoption of digital assets as investment products, the SEC Chair Gary Gensler has yet to signal support for ETFs beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. This move follows VanEck’s filing for a Solana ETF earlier this year.
Digital Asset’s Canton Network successfully tokenises gold, Eurobonds and gilts in pilot project. In partnership with Euroclear and the World Gold Council, the project brought together 27 unnamed market participants, including 11 observers, on the Canton testnet, conducting asset tokenisation for collateral usage in over 500 real-time atomic transactions split into six categories. The report established tokenisation as a more cost-effective trading system, estimating it could save 35-65% across the settlement value chain. Following the current pilot, Digital Asset plans to collaborate with interested market participants to develop a production solution based on the same infrastructure.
