US spot XRP funds took in $121.4 million in September, more than the roughly $104 million of open interest that left Binance between Aug. 22 and Sept. 17. With less leverage in the market, XRP's price now depends on whether that fund buying continues into October.

DogeOS opened a public testnet on September 30 that brings Ethereum-style smart contracts to Dogecoin, whose DOGE token has a $14.7 billion market cap. Until Dogecoin can verify the rollup's proofs, DOGE used as programmable capital would depend on the bridge's signers.

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says the Senate's Sept. 15 failure to advance the Clarity Act helped crypto, citing Bitcoin's roughly 8% gain since the vote. Half of his case is the status quo outliving the bill, and the rest is SEC relief that future regulators can change.

Bitwise's NRR, the first US spot NEAR ETF, stakes its tokens and keeps about 67% of a roughly 5% reward rate for shareholders. After the 0.75% fee, that comes to roughly 2.6% a year in extra tokens, just above NEAR's 2.5% inflation.

Bitwise's BSOL drew $55.7 million of US spot Solana ETFs' record $80 million to $87 million day, a smaller share than its 76% to 80% of all inflows. Grayscale and the smaller funds took a bigger slice of the new money than of the old.

Nine sessions of buying since August 17 pulled $1.42 billion into US spot Ethereum funds, and $1.02 billion of it landed in one BlackRock product, which makes this a distribution story before it is a conviction story.

Bitwise's interviews with 15 large allocators find bitcoin called a gold-like hedge but held with tech assets, typically at 1% to 2% of investable assets. None sold in a 50% drawdown, but new money has to compete with tech bets for the same risk budget.

Bitwise ran the first consolidation on Lido Core in September, part of a migration of roughly 8.4 million staked ETH that the Lido DAO approved in July and expects to finish by Q1 2027. All 34 curated operators now face ETH bonds.

Cloture on H.R. 3633 failed 49-50 on Sept. 15 with every yes vote Republican. Add the four Republican noes back to the yes column and the count reaches 53, still seven short of the 60 the Senate requires.

Asset managers are pitching bitcoin as the fix for a bond sleeve that has lost purchasing power for a decade. The weights they recommend, 2% to 10%, cover a quarter of a 60/40's 40 points of bonds at most.

Decrypt reports the fund closes before its first anniversary. The report gives no assets figure, no launch date and no closing date, so fewer than twelve months is the only number the story currently has.

Bitwise is closing its Dogecoin ETF in October after about ten months on NYSE Arca, and the fund's own filings show net assets of $473,547 at the end of June against $1.15 million six months earlier.

Payward's Bitnomial filing answers the market-structure question the CFTC already knows how to answer. The open item is the screening of a permissionless order book, and no answer to that question exists yet.
