PUMP drops over 16% in 24 hours, as a whale offloads 1.264 billion tokens in a single transaction.

Crypto analyst Darkfost noted in a post that Bitcoin’s technical fundamentals have not seen material changes: the 5th sub-wave of Wave 1 has ended at the expected level, and a Wave 2 correction may follow. This correction could dip to $74,600, aligning with the standard 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level. Currently, Bitcoin has fallen below the 21-period EMA and is trading at the support of the 50-period EMA, which he considers a strong support level; the 200-period EMA stands at around $75,800, still some distance from the current price. The RSI has returned to the neutral 50 level, though the gap with the 14-period SMA has widened. Darkfost opined that this suggests a corrective B-wave rebound may occur before the final C-wave arrives. He added that there are currently no concerning signals, and Bitcoin’s medium-term trend remains positive.

Deutsche Bank advises buying CoreWeave (CRWV) on dips, maintaining a "Buy" rating and a $150 price target, which translates to a 128% upside from Wednesday's closing price.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) announced that under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, it has designated Circle-issued USDC as a "significant e-money token". USDC is the first among 45 e-money tokens notified in the EU to meet this designation standard. Effective November 12, the EBA will directly regulate USDC’s own funds, reserve assets, liquidity requirements, and recovery and redemption plans—areas previously overseen by France’s Prudential Supervision and Resolution Authority (ACPR). Following the handover, ACPR will retain responsibility for corporate governance, qualifying holdings, suitability assessments, and conflict of interest matters. The EBA also noted it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) to facilitate cross-border supervision and information exchange. NYDFS regulates Circle’s licensed operations in New York State. Per data from The Block, USDC’s circulating supply nears $73 billion, making it the world’s second-largest stablecoin.

Binance announced that its tokenized stock product bStocks has surpassed $1 billion in user assets under management (AUM), making it the fastest tokenized stock product globally to reach this scale. Since its launch on June 11, 2026, bStocks hit this milestone in just around four months. To date, bStocks has amassed over $40 billion in cumulative trading volume, with an average daily trading volume exceeding $300 million, and nearly 100 assets listed on the platform. Since launch, the 1:1 conversion volume between directly held stocks and bStocks has reached $6 billion. Binance noted that bStocks can be used as collateral in eligible scenarios, supports round-the-clock trading, on-chain settlement, and cross-wallet transfers. As its asset size, trading volume, and use cases continue to expand, bStocks is advancing tokenized stocks beyond mere trading assets to serve as collateral and for broader crypto financial applications, further exploring the integration of traditional equity assets and on-chain financial infrastructure.
