8 hours ago

August 30th. During this week, the cryptocurrency market witnessed a notable sell-off. However, this occurred following a solid performance in the previous week. Owing to the reduction in volatility and the upcoming release of key data next week, some relatively weak highs have taken shape. Bitcoin is at risk of a double top and has failed to offer significant defense against its impact. Meanwhile, Ethereum retraced further after reaching a new high last Saturday. Here are the key points that the market will focus on in the new week (all times are Beijing time): Wednesday 21:00, 2025 FOMC Voter, St. Louis Fed President Muli Saleem will deliver a speech on the U.S. economy and monetary policy; Thursday 01:30, 2026 FOMC Voter, Minneapolis Fed President Kashkari participates in a fireside chat; Thursday 02:00, The Fed releases the Beige Book on economic conditions; Thursday 23:30, FOMC Permanent Voter, New York Fed President Williams speaks at the New York Economics Club; Friday 07:00, 2025 FOMC Voter, Chicago Fed President Gulsby gives a speech; Friday 20:30, U.S. August Unemployment Rate, August Non-Farm Payrolls, Average Hourly Earnings YoY, MoM.

Ethereum Co-founder: ETH Price Could Surge 100x in the Future, or Even More

On August 30th, Joseph Lubin, the co-founder of Ethereum and the CEO of ConsenSys, stated that Wall Street will participate in staking because they are currently incurring costs for their infrastructure. Ethereum will replace many of the independent systems they operate (for example, JPMorgan Chase may operate multiple independent systems from banks it has acquired and absorbed). Wall Street firms will need to transform into traditional financial companies operating on a decentralized track, which means engaging in staking, running validation nodes, operating L2/L3, participating in decentralized finance (DeFi), and writing smart contracts for protocols, processes, and financial tools. The perception that L2 will cannibalize L1 will soon be disproven, as demonstrated in projects like Linea and Proof of Burn. The price of ETH may increase by 100 times or even more in the future. ETH will surpass BTC as the monetary base. Tom Lee and I have a good relationship, and the only difference

On August 30th, based on Coinglass data, the current funding rates of mainstream CEX and DEX are showing a continuous divergence in the market, with a combination of bearish and neutral sentiments. The specific funding rates for mainstream coins are as shown in the attached image. BlockBeats Note: The funding rate is a fee set by cryptocurrency exchanges to maintain the balance between the contract price and the underlying asset price. It is usually applicable to perpetual contracts and is a fund exchange mechanism between long and short traders. The trading platform does not charge this fee. It is used to adjust the cost or profit of traders holding contracts to keep the contract price close to the underlying asset price. When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represents the baseline rate. When the funding rate is greater than 0.01%, it indicates a generally bullish market. When the funding rate is less than 0.005%, it indicates a generally bearish market.
