Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

Crypto Has Been Flat Against Gold For Past 8 Years, Mike McGlone Unveils

Crypto Has Been Flat Against Gold For Past 8 Years, Mike McGlone Unveils

The post Crypto Has Been Flat Against Gold For Past 8 Years, Mike McGlone Unveils appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto and stocks have been flat against gold: McGlone Saylor still believes in Bitcoin as Strategy buys 4,048 BTC Mike McGlone, a senior commodity expert at Bloomberg Intelligence, has taken to his official X account to share with the community his observations regarding Bitcoin, gold and what their current price dynamic may be saying about the overall state of the global economy. Meanwhile, gold has reached a new all-time high of $3,578. You Might Also Like Crypto and stocks have been flat against gold: McGlone In his tweet, McGlone stated that over the past eight years, the Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index and the S&P 500 have “flatlined vs. gold”, essentially meaning that while valued in dollars, crypto and stocks may have appreciated significantly, they have not gained much value relative to gold. Generally, crypto is expected to outperform gold over time, particularly in times of inflation, and in dollar terms, this is what has been happening. McGlone seems to be hinting that should gold continues to hold steady against risk assets, such as Bitcoin or stocks, or continues to outperform them, it may signal that the global economy is experiencing a major weakness at the moment or even indicate the coming of a profound change in the global financial order. Today, the price of a single gold ounce surged to $3,578, soaring by 120% in total over the past three years. Gold Guiding Stuff That’s Never Happened – Feint or Profound? It’s not a good sign for the global economy that the S&P 500 and Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index have flatlined vs. gold for about eight years. Is the ancient store of value ripe for reversal?

Gold surges past $3,450 as traders eye Fed independence, NFPs

The post Gold surges past $3,450 as traders eye Fed independence, NFPs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XAU/USD climbs 0.87% to $3,476 as quiet US session fuels momentum toward record levels. Traders price in 85% chance of September Fed cut despite inflation stubbornly above target at 2.9% YoY. Fed independence doubts and tariff uncertainty boost safe-haven appeal, with Nonfarm Payrolls now in focus. Gold rises above $3,450 and may challenge the $3,500 record on Monday, as US markets are quiet for Labor Day. Concerns regarding the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) independence and ongoing uncertainty about the trade war have kept the US Dollar subdued and increased flows toward the precious metals sector. At the time of writing, the XAU/USD trades at $3,476, up by over 0.87%. Bullion rallies toward $3,500 record high amid subdued US Dollar Last week, inflation data showed prices were nearly 3% higher on an annual basis, above the Fed’s 2% target. Fed Chair Jerome Powell highlighted labor market weaknesses at Jackson Hole, making jobs data the focus, while traders overlooked the core PCE Price Index release. The core PCE rose 2.9% YoY in July as expected, showing that the disinflation process is far from resuming. Despite inflation remaining above target, the expectations for a rate cut persist due to labor market weakness. The chances of a Fed September rate cut remain high with odds standing at 85%, according to Prime Market Terminal interest rate probabilities tool. In the meantime, Gold traders are laser focused on the release of Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) figures and further developments in the firing of Fed Governor Lisa Cook by US President Donald Trump. XAU/USD has extended its gains as market participants believe that the White House’s response could undermine the Fed’s independence, leading to concerns about monetary policy stability. Also, the decision of the US Court of Appeals of ruling most tariffs illegally would keep uncertainty in the markets…

Coinbase Equity Futures to Blend Mag 7 Tech Stocks With Crypto ETFs

Coinbase Equity Futures to Blend Mag 7 Tech Stocks With Crypto ETFs

Coinbase Derivatives said it will introduce a new type of equity index futures contract later this month, offering investors exposure to both leading U.S. technology stocks and cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in a single product.Launching Sept. 22, the Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures will be the first U.S.-listed derivatives contracts to combine traditional equities with digital assets, according to a blog post.The move, said the company, marks expansion beyond single-asset derivatives into multi-asset offerings designed to give investors thematic exposure to innovation and growth sectors.The new index includes ten components weighted equally at 10% each. It consists of the so-called “Magnificent 7” stocks — Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta and Tesla — along with Coinbase’s own stock and two crypto ETFs: BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). MarketVector, known for its crypto and thematic indexes, will serve as the official index provider.Contracts will be monthly and cash-settled, with each representing $1 multiplied by the index level. At an index value of $3,000, for example, the notional value of one contract would be $3,000. The index will be rebalanced quarterly to restore equal weighting across all components.Coinbase framed the product as a way for investors to manage multi-asset risk more efficiently while gaining exposure to both sides of the innovation economy — Silicon Valley tech leaders and blockchain-native assets.“Equity index futures mark the next evolution of our product suite and pave the way for a new era of multi-asset derivatives,” the company said in its announcement.The launch comes amid growing investor appetite for crossover products that bridge traditional finance and crypto markets. Coinbase said it plans to expand availability of the contracts to retail users in the months ahead, though they will initially trade on partner platforms.

Why the price of Silver exceeds $40

Why the price of Silver exceeds $40

The post Why the price of Silver exceeds $40 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The precious metals market has just passed a symbolic milestone. The price of Silver (XAG/USD) has surged above $40 an ounce, reaching its highest level since September 2011. This move is attracting the attention of investors around the world, both for its economic implications and for what it reveals about the current economic climate. Silver monthly chart. Source: FXStreet A movement fuelled by interest rates This surge in Silver prices is primarily due to expectations of lower interest rates in the United States (US). The US Federal Reserve (Fed) is expected to ease monetary policy this autumn, against a backdrop of a slowing job market and inflation that many still consider too high. Precious metals such as Gold and Silver offer no direct return. When interest rates fall, the opportunity cost of holding these assets decreases, making them even more attractive. It is this mechanism that is currently fuelling a wave of buying, supported by the conviction that the Fed will soon have its hands free to revive credit and support the economy. A climate of uncertainty in the United States The political context adds a further dimension to this dynamic. In the United States, the debate over the Fed’s independence has intensified, fuelled by US President Donald Trump’s repeated criticism of the monetary institution. His attacks have cast doubt on the stability of economic policies, boosting demand for safe-haven assets. In addition, persistent trade tensions and court rulings on US tariffs add to the uncertainty. In this environment, Silver and Gold appear to be reassuring alternatives for investors. The scarcity effect: A market under pressure Beyond monetary policy, the Silver market is also underpinned by a particular supply and demand dynamic. The Silver Institute estimates that 2025 could mark the fifth consecutive year of supply deficit. Industrial demand, particularly…
