📊In this week’s Market Pulse: From Flash Crash to Structural Re-Anchoring Here’s what we’re watching: 🔹Largest ETF Outflow Shock: BTC Spot ETFs recorded a -$1.23B net weekly outflow (largest since launch, excluding GBTC conversion). ETH ETFs shed -$312M. 🔹Resilience Confirmed: Despite the extreme outflows, the TOTAL3 index successfully defended the $1T base, and BTC Dominance remained capped below 60.5%. 🔹Structure Reset: The market proved resilient; the deleveraging phase is now a selective rebuilding phase led by cash buyers, not retail leverage. 🔹Macro Backdrop: Markets are fully priced for two more Fed cuts this year. China GDP beat forecast, lifting risk assets. Q3 earnings season adds to sentiment. 💡The system has absorbed the largest liquidity fracture without contagion. Institutions are no longer the weak link; they are the circuit breaker. A fragile rebuild continues, with CPI data and corporate earnings driving volatility. The deleveraging is over; the selective rebuild is on. Institutions are the new circuit breaker. 📈 Read the Market Pulse here → https://lnkd.in/gqqysFJv #CryptoMarkets #Bitcoin #Ethereum #DigitalAssets #InstitutionalCrypto #MacroOutlook #HexTrust #MarketPulse #DeFi #Web3 Charmaine Tam Alexander M.

🗣️Do MORE with Less Recap: The Institutional Roadmap for XRPFi 📈 Our CCO, Calvin Shen, shared key strategic insights on how institutions are reshaping XRP narrative, moving from payments into full financial utility. Key Institutional Shifts: 🔷 Programmable Asset Utility: XRP is evolving from a settlement coin into a programmable asset with DeFi composability, enabling liquidity, collateral, and rewards. 🔷 The CeDeFi Sequence: Institutional adoption requires licensed, regulated counterparties to provide the governance and risk management layer required for large-scale capital deployment. 🔷 Untapped Market Potential: With XRP’s DeFi penetration below 1%, XRPFi is positioned for a multi-billion-dollar expansion, supported by innovation and regulatory clarity. Hex Trust is building the secure infrastructure to unlock this potential for our clients. #DoMoreWithLess #HexTrust #XRPFi #XRP #InstitutionalDeFi #Regulation #CryptoMarkets #Token2049 Hugo Philion Flare Georgios Vlachos Axelar Network Altan Tutar MoreMarkets

“Short-term pain, long-term gain.” 💬 Speaking with Decrypt, Charmaine Tam, Head of OTC at Hex Trust, shared her insights on last week’s crypto sell-off and the subsequent market rebound - highlighting that the correction helped flush out excessive leverage while institutional infrastructure remained resilient. As markets stabilise, Charmaine notes that Bitcoin dominance “failed to reclaim 60.5%,” suggesting altcoins could lead the next phase of liquidity recovery. 🔗 Read the full article on Decrypt: https://lnkd.in/gxUfrx3t #CryptoMarkets #DigitalAssets #InstitutionalAdoption #MarketInsights #HexTrust

🗣️Our CCO, Calvin Shen, recently delivered strategic insights at CoinFerenceX, outlining the fundamental shift shaping institutional Bitcoin strategy: from static reserve asset to productive financial instrument. Key takeaways for institutional investors 💬 🔷 The Utility Mandate: Institutions are moving past passive holding, demanding secure strategies to generate rewards from their Bitcoins.  🔷 The Regulated Bridge: Large-scale DeFi adoption requires licensed custodians to provide the governance and security institutions need.  🔷 The On-Chain Future: Institutional conviction is clear – the future of capital markets will move on-chain, with Bitcoin at the core. Hex Trust is committed to building the infrastructure that transforms this potential into a secure reality for our clients. #CoinferenceX #HexTrust #Bitcoin #BTCFi #InstitutionalCrypto #Regulation #DigitalAssets #Stablecoins #Token2049 Edan Yago Luke Xie Dr. Khushboo Khullar Eneko Knorr

📊In this week’s Market Pulse: ‘Uptober’ turned ‘Octobear’ Here’s what we’re watching: 🔹Trade tariffs and geopolitical risks triggered a $18-19B liquidation event, causing a sharp market air-pocket. 🔹Crucially, the ETF primary creation rails held firm, preventing derivative chaos from bleeding into the spot market structure. 🔹Major lending protocols cleared liquidations with zero bad debt, confirming the underlying DeFi stack is resilient to extreme volatility. 🔹Gold hit a new record high as flight-to-safety surged. Investors dramatically increased Fed rate cut bets to 95.7% for October. 💡Liquidity rebuilding is key. This week is dominated by IMF/World Bank meetings and the kick-off of Q3 bank earnings (JPM, GS), adding uncertainty to the recovery. 📈 Read the Market Pulse here → https://lnkd.in/gRc8ajHe #CryptoMarkets #Bitcoin #Ethereum #DigitalAssets #InstitutionalCrypto #MacroOutlook #HexTrust #MarketPulse #DeFi #Web3 Charmaine Tam Alexander M.

🗣️ Our Head of OTC, Charmaine Tam, joined the Talos APAC Institutional Summit to dissect the market structure enabling institutional adoption. Her message was clear: growth requires closing operational and regulatory gaps. Key structural insights for institutional clients: 🔷 Regulation is the Catalyst: "Clarity or unclarity actually equals structural risk." Without legal certainty around custody and settlement, boards will not approve digital asset allocations. 🛡️ 🔷 The Liquidity Challenge: Liquidity remains fragmented, with displayed liquidity not always executable. Institutions must rely on smart order routing and aggregation tools to uphold fiduciary duty for best execution. 📈 🔷 The 24/7 Standard: The industry urgently needs standardised trade execution benchmarks (TWAP, VWAP, etc.) and enriched trade metadata. Without them, asset managers lack the accountability framework required in a 24/7 market. 📊 Hex Trust is actively driving these standards to ensure compliant, efficient institutional market participation. #TalosSummit #HexTrust #OTCTrading #InstitutionalCrypto #Regulation #Liquidity #Token2049 Bitkub PDAX
