Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

Google ordered to share data with competitors

Google ordered to share data with competitors

The post Google ordered to share data with competitors appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has gained relief after a federal judge ruled that it may keep Chrome and Android but must share data with rival entities. The decision follows a five-year antitrust legal battle that targeted Big Tech’s market dominance.   U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta said that Google’s control of online search is an illegal monopoly, but concluded that breaking up the company’s core business would be a poor fit for the case. He instead ordered Alphabet to give access to specific search data, except for exclusive contracts that secure Google’s default status on devices. Google to appeal Judge Mehta’s declaration of data sharing Judge Mehta’s ruling means that competitors such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity, which are currently developing AI search engines, may benefit from insights into Google’s market data. Some experts have warned that alternatives to Alphabet’s search engine may face capital-intensive investments to match Alphabet’s search engine status, with no guarantee of winning over consumers.  Wow – court rules Google must share data with competitors. Looks like they’ll be forced to share: 1) Basic Search Index: URLs/first seen/last crawled/spam score/etc.2) “Glue”: uses click data to build SERPs3) RankEmbed: deep learning to understand semantic meaning Bing,… pic.twitter.com/6BtkyNSqPE — Cyrus SEO (@CyrusShepard) September 2, 2025 The U.S. district Judge noted that the emergence of GenAI has changed the course of the case, with millions of people already turning to generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude. He commented that consumers use GenAI to gather information once sought via traditional search. He added that AI companies pose a big challenge for Google, which has dominated the market for over two decades now. Google argued that the ruling risks undermining user privacy, with CEO Sundar Pichai warning that competitors may reverse engineer Google’s technology. The search engine firm acknowledged that the decision reflects that…

XRP under threat of crashing to $2.35 as $100 million moves to Coinbase

XRP under threat of crashing to $2.35 as $100 million moves to Coinbase

The post XRP under threat of crashing to $2.35 as $100 million moves to Coinbase appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XRP’s push to reclaim the $3 resistance could stall as the asset faces renewed selling pressure from whales. Data indicates a massive transaction of 35,122,576 XRP, worth $99 million, was transferred from an unknown wallet to Coinbase, according to insights retrieved from Whale Alert on September 3.    XRP transfer to Coinbase transaction. Source: Whale Alert Historically, such transfers have sparked fears that whales may be preparing to offload holdings, potentially triggering fresh selling pressure and accelerating a price decline. Currently, XRP is holding around the $2.80 level, where technical indicators suggest a fragile balance.  To this end, according to cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez, the token is now supported by a crucial level at $2.74. Martinez noted that XRP has formed a descending triangle pattern, with repeated rejections along a downward trendline and progressively lower highs signaling persistent bearish sentiment.

If this level is breached, the next major downside target is $2.35.  XRP price analysis  At the same time, Fibonacci retracement levels reinforce this outlook, showing that a breach of $2.74 could pave the way toward $2.62, $2.56, and ultimately $2.35 as key support zones.

The 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) stands at $3.09, placing the current price below this level and pointing to short-term weakness. By contrast, the 200-day SMA at $2.48 suggests a broader upward trend, with XRP still trading above it. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 45.16, indicating neutral territory, neither overbought nor oversold. However, its proximity to the lower end hints at the need for caution.

Somnia Slips 14% In A Day, Despite 1 Million TPS

Somnia Slips 14% In A Day, Despite 1 Million TPS

The post Somnia Slips 14% In A Day, Despite 1 Million TPS appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Somnia’s native token, SOMI, has seen strong interest since its recent launch, following the mainnet rollout of the Ethereum-compatible blockchain.  The project, capable of processing 1 million transactions per second, quickly attracted attention from investors. However, short-term performance has not reflected early hype, as SOMI is facing sharp price volatility. Somnia Is Losing Strength The Relative Strength Index (RSI) paints a cautious picture for Somnia. The indicator is currently positioned below the neutral 50.0 mark, resting in the negative zone. This suggests bearish conditions persist, and SOMI could face difficulty. Sponsored Sponsored A subdued RSI highlights the absence of strong buying pressure from traders. Without a reversal in momentum, the altcoin may remain vulnerable to price drops. Want more token insights like this? Sign up for Editor Harsh Notariya’s Daily Crypto Newsletter here. SOMI RSI. Source: TradingView The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is hovering near the zero line, indicating weak inflows for SOMI. This suggests investor participation has not been strong enough to sustain recent price levels. Without significant capital injection, the altcoin risks struggling to maintain its valuation and could continue trending downward. Somnia’s success depends on strong market confidence, but the muted inflows highlight investor hesitation. Unless buyers step in with greater conviction, SOMI could face a challenging period in maintaining growth. SOMI CMF. Source: TradingView SOMI Price Faces A Drop SOMI’s price has dropped nearly 18% in the past six hours. After marking an all-time high near $0.579, the token is now trading at $0.475. This sharp decline highlights growing uncertainty and the pressure Somnia faces as it attempts to stabilize after its launch. Given current indicators, SOMI appears susceptible to further decline. If bearish pressure persists, the token could slip below $0.453, leaving it vulnerable to additional correction. Such a move would signal weakening demand. SOMI Price Analysis.

Fed Rate Cuts Might Delay Altcoin Season Instead of Fueling It: Here’s Why

Fed Rate Cuts Might Delay Altcoin Season Instead of Fueling It: Here’s Why

The post Fed Rate Cuts Might Delay Altcoin Season Instead of Fueling It: Here’s Why appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: The Altcoin Season Index at 61 shows altcoins are getting stronger but still below the 75 mark needed to confirm a full cycle. Past cycles show rallies often slow once Fed rate cuts begin, and September’s cut odds near 90% may bring a similar delay. Charts on market cap, Bitcoin dominance, and gold point to resilience, but the first wave of liquidity may bypass altcoins. The crypto market is again talking about altcoin season. The Alt Season Index is now at 61, its highest in eight months. That level shows altcoins are getting stronger, but it has not confirmed a full cycle yet. At the same time, traders are watching the United States Federal Reserve. The chance of a September rate cut is near 90%. In past years, cuts pushed crypto higher, but this time the outcome is harder to read. Charts on altcoin market cap, Bitcoin dominance, and bond yields tell one story: the Alt season may still come, but it might not start right away. Alt Season Index Shows Movement, but History Warns of Delay The Altcoin Season Index is at 61. That means the players are getting stronger against Bitcoin. This move makes sense, as a lot of whales have already moved from BTC to ETH. But that’s only one part of the story The last time it was here was late 2023. After that, alts had a big run. But traders say the real altcoin season starts only when the index is above 75. Right now, it is not confirmed. Altcoin Season Is Warming Up | Source: X The TOTAL3 chart, which tracks market cap without Bitcoin and Ethereum, tells the same story. Market cap is around $1.03 trillion with strong support near $993 billion. The next hurdles are $1.13 trillion and $1.35 trillion.…

$1.5 mln in Web3 bets over Trump’s death: ‘Kind of crazy,’ says much-alive Prez

$1.5 mln in Web3 bets over Trump’s death: ‘Kind of crazy,’ says much-alive Prez

The post $1.5 mln in Web3 bets over Trump’s death: ‘Kind of crazy,’ says much-alive Prez appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Journalist Posted: September 3, 2025 Key Takeaways Rumors about Trump’s health ignited $1.5 million in prediction market bets, revealing both ethical and regulatory challenges in Web3 platforms.  Over the past weekend, social media was abuzz with alarming rumors surrounding President Donald Trump’s health, fueled by his unusually low public visibility. Trump death rumors hype up Since his Cabinet meeting on the 26th of August, Trump has remained out of the public eye, sparking widespread speculation about his well-being. The frenzy reached its peak on the 30th of August, when searches for terms like “is Trump dead” and “Trump dead” surged to the top of Google’s trending queries.  Adding to the intrigue, markets closely tied to Trump-related events drew attention. Source: Molly White/X Dismissing these rumors, President Trump finally made his public appearance on the 2nd of September, reaffirming his health and putting an end to the viral misinformation. Trump voiced,  “It’s sort of crazy.” However, many observers had reported the news as true even before this official confirmation. This included liberal commentator Keith Olbermann, who noted,  “Of course Trump’s not dead, on the other hand how could you be certain? And how could his own White House have possibly made it look more like he was or is desperately ill or had surgery or is having surgery or what?” How did this impact the predictions market? Trump’s death rumors triggered unprecedented activity in prediction markets, highlighting both the power and the controversy of Web3 platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket. Together, the platforms attracted over $1.5 million in wagers on whether President Trump would leave office in 2025, with more than half of the bets hinging on scenarios that could indirectly relate to his death. This was because Donald Trump Jr. serves as an advisor to both prediction market platforms —…
