A Bloomberg analyst says the odds of crypto ETF approvals are now 100% after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) asked issuers to withdraw pending 19b-4 filings, clearing the way for ETFs including XRP, ADA, and DOGE to advance. The withdrawals follow the SEC’s Sept. 18 approval of generic listing standards, which make 19b-4 filings unnecessary. Exchanges including Nasdaq, Cboe BZX, and NYSE Arca can now list ETFs that meet predefined criteria, allowing issuers to move directly to S-1 registration, the final step before launch. ”Honestly the odds are really 100% now,” said Bloomberg ETF analysts Eric Balchunas. “Generic listing standards make the 19b-4s and their “clock” meaningless. That just leaves the S-1s waiting for formal green light from Corp Finance. And they just submitted amendment #4 for Solana. The baby could come any day. Be ready.” Honestly the odds are really 100% now. Generic listing standards make the 19b-4s and th...

Dogecoin (DOGE) could see limited movement heading into October, according to projections from ChatGPT’s AI model. The outlook comes as DOGE trades in line with a broader cryptocurrency market sell-off that has wiped out significant capital.  For October 1, ChatGPT places the most likely trading range between $0.245 and $0.265, with a base case around $0.255. The forecast outlines three potential scenarios. In an optimistic case, fueled by strong sentiment and inflows from the newly launched Rex-Osprey Doge ETF, DOGE could climb toward $0.27. Conversely, if market sentiment weakens or risk factors weigh on cryptocurrencies, the price could retreat to the $0.23 and $0.24 range. According to ChatGPT, key drivers shaping the projection include Dogecoin’s current technical setup and investor sentiment. In this case, the meme coin has maintained support above $0.24, with resistance between $0.25 and $0.26. A decisive breakout above this zone could open the door ...

The New Development Bank (NDB), commonly called the BRICS bank, has approved loans for 120 projects worth nearly $40 billion. The loans were disbursed for key sectors such as clean energy, transport, environment, and social development. In addition, the loans were given out for developing infrastructural projects like upgrading roads, building airports, and seaports, among others. The BRICS bank lent these loans to most of the countries in Africa, and recently to Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. The loans were mostly disbursed in local currencies like the Chinese yuan. The repayment will also be in the Chinese yuan, giving no space for the US dollar. Also, China’s Qingdao city received a loan of 3,237 million Chinese yuan to build a metro line.
