Bitwise CEO Discloses Huge Bitcoin ETF Buying By Large Bank In US

Bitwise Invest CEO Hunter Horsley reveals that a large bank in the U.S. is heavily investing in Bitwise spot Bitcoin ETF and other crypto ETFs. Spot Bitcoin ETFs are witnessing mainstream adoption and experts believe sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, and endowments will eventually accumulate later as they have a long due diligence timeline. Jane Street Group and Boothbay Fund Management have the largest holding in Bitwise ETF (BITB).
Bitwise CEO Points To Large Bitcoin ETF Investing
Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise Invest, took to social media platform X to reveal that hundreds of wealth management branches of a large U.S.-based bank have invested in Bitwise ETFs. This accounts for 20% of wealth management branches of the bank, as per a report.
He adds that Bitcoin and crypto are gradually entering the mainstream as numerous TradFi buy BTC and other crypto ETFs. The company offers seven exchange-traded funds with BITB holding 40,499.93 BTC valued at $2.71 billion, as per Bitwise.
“From a report I got today – There’s a large bank in the US where 20% of all their wealth management branches (several hundred), own a Bitwise ETF,” said Horsley.

More Adoption After Spot Ethereum ETF Launch
BITB net inflow has surpassed $2.20 billion after the recent consecutive inflow amid positive sentiment in the crypto market. Also, the spot Bitcoin ETF saw a $44.6 million inflow on Friday.
Bitwise CEO Horsley and CIO Matt Hougan are more bullish on allocations to ETFs following spot Ethereum ETF launch. Hougan predicts a massive Ethereum price rally to $5,000 considering demand similar to Bitcoin ETFs. Ether ETFs are expected to start trading early next week. There are also debates on whether the launch is a “sell the news” event.
BTC price jumped more than 5% after the options expiry, with the price currently trading at $66,616. The 24-hour low and high are $63,416 and $67,442, respectively. Furthermore, the trading volume has increased by 35% in the last 24 hours, indicating a rise in interest among traders.

Ethereum Price Falls Below $1900 As Expert Blames Decline On Network Stagnation

Ethereum price has tumbled below $1,900 in a correction driven by a slew of factors. Outside of the technicals, one expert is pinning the blame on Ethereum’s failure to lead and innovate in the Web 3 space.
Ethereum Price Continues Its Steep Decline
According to CoinMarketCap data, technicals for Ethereum’s price are grim, with the second-largest cryptocurrency slipping below $1,900. At press time, Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $1,828 and shows no signs of reversing the grim trend.
A look at Ethereum’s chart does not indicate any signs of an uptrend or a short bounce to stoke embers of optimism. According to pseudonymous analyst Gum, Ethereum signals “relentless downward price action” that could see the asset fall below $1,800.
Over the last day, Ethereum has fallen by nearly 4% while its seven-day chart indicates a decline of nearly 8%. The decline of Ethereum price follows a broader market correction with the global crypto market capitalization losing nearly 3% of its valuation.
On the fundamentals side, things are equally grim for the Ethereum price. Unconfirmed reports of a potential Binance delisting ETH threaten to send Ethereum price to $1,500. Standard Chartered has slashed its ETH prediction for 2025 by 60%, projecting $4,000 as a potential price point by the end of the year.
Expert Says Network Has Itself To Blame
Ryan Watkins, co-founder at Syncracy Capital has taken swipes at Ethereum over its failure to keep pace with its peers. Watkins notes that a failure to capitalize on previous momentum during the last two market cycles is haunting Ethereum’s price.
Ethereum has fallen down the pecking order to new blockchains with Solana and Bitcoin tipped to have the upper hand over the network. An inflow of bridged funds from Ethereum to Solana is accentuating the network’s worrying metrics.
“No one wants to own a growth stage product that’s falling behind technologically superior competitors and bleeding market share,” said Watkins.
Watkins says the only for Ethereum to pull itself from the rut is to “deliver generational leadership and growth.” However, with the Pectra upgrade around the corner, enthusiasts are optimistic that Ethereum can reach $10,000. Hardcore community members are poking holes in Solana’s rise, attributing it a memecoin craze compared to Ethereum’s neck-deep foray into decentralized finance (DeFi).

Is Burger King Teasing Crypto Launch? Decoding Their X Post

Burger King is joining ranks with other leading brands to dabble in digital assets, hinting at a coin launch. According to a post on micro-blogging platform X, the fast-food chain may be inching toward the launch of Burger Coin.
Burger King Hints At Burger Koin Launch
Global fast-food chain Burger King has hinted at the potential launch of a cryptocurrency, joining the league of brands with native digital assets. The UK arm of the fast-food chain teased Burger Koin in an X post, seeking community opinion for the coin.
“Shall we make a crypto burger coin called Burger Koin?” wrote Burger King on X.
The tweet has triggered widespread reaction across the cryptoverse, fuelling speculation for an imminent launch. Burger King’s tweet comes in the middle of a jarring market correction, with assets shedding their values.
While the tweet did not share further details, pundits are speculating over the direction of Burger Koin. A majority of analysts say Burger King’s crypto will come retrofitted with utility for holders. Burger Koin may be used for governance use cases, allowing holders to vote on new recipes while offering discounts and staking functionalities.
Since the tweet went live, several copycat tokens have garnered steam in the absence of further statements by the fast-food chain
Burger Koin May Operate As A Memecoin
Chances are that Burger King’s Burger Koin may take the form of a memecoin if the fast-food chain proceeds to launch. Pundits say that a memecoin with a streak of utility will be the best option for Burger Coin, given its vibrant community.
The recent declaration by the US SEC that memecoins are not securities may play a role in Burger King’s choice. Back in 2017, the Russian arm of the fast-food chain launched WhooperCoin as a part of a loyalty program for customers.
Burger King is no stranger to digital assets as it partnered with Robinhood to give out Dogecoin (DOGE) via sweepstakes. The fast-food chain has dabbled with NFTs after its brush with memecoins. Despite their soaring popularity Cathie Woods says memecoins will be worthless in the future since they have no intrinsic value.

Pepe Coin Whale Sells 150 Billion Tokens, Price Fall Ahead?

The negative sentiment in the digital currency ecosystem is finally reflected in the Pepe Coin market. According to Lookonchain’s update, one of the memecoin’s whales has initiated a massive selloff. This selloff has further compounded the bearish outlook of the token, further dampening the outlook around the memecoin.
PEPE Whale Selloff, Key Implications
Per the Lookonchain update on X, the PEPE OG sold 150,000,000,000 tokens worth over $1.14 million in early trading. The analytics platform noted that this OG entered the PEPE market earlier. The whale reportedly spent only $2,184 to buy 1.5 trillion PEPE, valued at over $43 million at the peak.
This whale has sold off 1.02 trillion PEPE thus far for $6.66 million. Onchain records show he still has 493 billion PEPE of the original stash. This leftover is worth $3.64 million, representing a total profit of $10.3 million or 4,718x.

Whales selling off an asset is typically not a vote of confidence for the digital currency. This selloff is not uncommon to memecoins, and for PEPE, this may further dampen the negative outlook of the token.
PEPE Coin Price Outlook
Earlier this week, CoinGape reported a 500 billion PEPE accumulation by a whale, a move that many hoped could push the price up. However, the reverse is the case as Pepe Coin price is currently trading for $0.0000073, down 5.57% in past 24 hours.
Despite the broader market downturn, PEPE has come off as one of the biggest losers overall. Per the current setup, the token moved from a 24-hour high of $0.00000787 to its current price. While the token has maintained a marginal growth of 0.54% in the past 7-days, it has registered a 62% drawdown Year-to-Date (YTD).
It remains unknown how the current PEPE Coin outlook will play out. However, a halt in whale selloffs and a shift in the broader memecoin market fundamentals might fuel its recovery.
Crypto Market and Memecoin Rebound
The broader crypto market is down today, facing negative pressures from the economic uncertainty in the broader financial market.
Bitcoin has continued to weigh the altcoins down, explaining the PEPE-correlated selloff. Assets in the memecoin market, like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, have also been down 5.58% and 3.3% in the past 24 hours.
With the weekend volatility, top assets might see more price drawdowns overall. Analysts are optimistic about BTC’s future recovery, which can have a ripple effect on the broader market.
