The crypto market enters a new phase of uncertainty as Goldman Sachs revises its monetary scenario. The American bank now forecasts a Fed rate hike next week, following stronger-than-expected core inflation in August. This change comes as bitcoin trades below $80,000. Investors have adjusted their expectations, with the probability of a hike now approaching 90%. The September decision could impact market reactions.

American Bitcoin ETFs recorded a fourth consecutive day of net outflows on Friday, September 11, with $13.29M withdrawn. In contrast, ether ETFs attracted $216.41M and mark a fourth positive week. Institutional investors therefore still seem present in the crypto market, but their interest is shifting.

After a 24% gain in two weeks, BTC stopped its progression and currently stagnates around 77000 dollars. According to CryptoQuant, the momentum remains bullish; however, its confirmation depends on a precise threshold: 81700 dollars, the level of the 365-day moving average. However, before reaching it, the market must still absorb a significant concentration of supply. And beyond that, two new resistances already await bitcoin at 83600 and 88700 dollars.

North Korea is expanding its infiltration system of American companies. According to an NBC investigation, IT workers based notably in Iran and Lebanon are recruited to attend interviews on behalf of North Korean operators. Some reportedly received 500 dollars per month in crypto to play the "interview associates" role. Once the contract is secured, the position can be taken over by a worker linked to Pyongyang. American authorities had already documented the increasing use of third parties to bypass recruitment controls.

The inclusive growth of the BRICS could allow emerging countries and their populations to benefit optimally from the global economy. Such an ambition goes beyond wealth redistribution, however the commitments made in New Delhi remain difficult to measure.

Revolut no longer just integrates cryptocurrencies into its banking app. With the launch of EURR, the development of Revolut X, and its new regulatory approaches, the fintech is building a much broader crypto offering. Maxim Krasnov, founder of Construct.tech, analyzes this evolution as a rapprochement between banking and digital assets. His analysis notably highlights the role of Bridge, a company owned by Stripe, in the issuance of the stablecoin. This strategy now extends to several markets and various uses.

BNB Chain proclaims its top global position in RWA growth with +3.6 billion dollars in 2026. Impressive figure on paper. But on the same day, DeFiLlama shows Solana regaining the lead in crypto application revenues and DEX volume, far ahead. Two rankings, one real question: who generates the activity?

Ethereum’s rally pushes Ether’s growth to nearly 60.6% since July 1st. Only the third quarter of 2025 performed better, yet the ranking remains provisional until September 30th.
