PANews reported on October 29th that, according to CoinDesk, a Sentora Research report stated that nearly $1 billion in DeFi positions involving USDe (sUSDe) staked on Ethena are at risk following the crypto market crash on October 11th. The crash caused a sharp drop in DeFi market interest rates, shrinking the returns of leveraged strategies such as sUSDe revolving trades. On Aave v3 core, USDT/USDC lending rates are approximately 2.0% and 1.5% higher than sUSDe yields, respectively. Users who leveraged stablecoins to go long on sUSDe are experiencing negative returns, and revolving positions using stablecoins to buy sUSDe are beginning to lose money. If this situation continues, approximately $1 billion in positions on Aave v3 core exposed to negative interest rate spreads may be liquidated. Negative interest rate spreads could force collateral sell-offs or deleveraging, weakening liquidity in trading venues and triggering a chain reaction. Sentora warns traders to pay attention to the spread between the annualized yield of Aave lending and the yield of sUSDe, especially when it remains negative, as well as the utilization rates of USDT and USDC lending pools. With an increasing number of revolving positions nearing liquidation, traders should be wary of a surge in USDT and USDC lending pool utilization in the future, which could drive up borrowing costs and exacerbate market pressure when interest rate spreads are negative.PANews reported on October 29th that, according to CoinDesk, a Sentora Research report stated that nearly $1 billion in DeFi positions involving USDe (sUSDe) staked on Ethena are at risk following the crypto market crash on October 11th.

BlackRock Increases U.S. Stock Exposure Amid AI Surge

BlackRock Increases U.S. Stock Exposure Amid AI Surge

The post BlackRock Increases U.S. Stock Exposure Amid AI Surge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Points: BlackRock significantly increased U.S. stock exposure. AI sector driven gains boost S&P 500 to historic highs. Shift may set a precedent for other major asset managers. BlackRock, the largest asset manager, significantly increased U.S. stock and AI sector exposure, adjusting its $185 billion investment portfolios, according to a recent investment outlook report.. This strategic shift signals strong confidence in U.S. market growth, driven by AI and anticipated Federal Reserve moves, influencing significant fund flows into BlackRock’s ETFs. The reallocation increases U.S. stocks by 2% while reducing holdings in international developed markets. BlackRock’s move reflects confidence in the U.S. stock market’s trajectory, driven by robust earnings and the anticipation of Federal Reserve rate cuts. As a result, billions of dollars have flowed into BlackRock’s ETFs following the portfolio adjustment. “Our increased allocation to U.S. stocks, particularly in the AI sector, is a testament to our confidence in the growth potential of these technologies.” — Larry Fink, CEO, BlackRock The financial markets have responded favorably to this adjustment. The S&P 500 Index recently reached a historic high this year, supported by AI-driven investment enthusiasm. BlackRock’s decision aligns with widespread market speculation on the Federal Reserve’s next moves, further amplifying investor interest and confidence. AI Surge Propels S&P 500 to Historic Highs At no other time in history has the S&P 500 seen such dramatic gains driven by a single sector as the recent surge spurred by AI investments in 2023. Experts suggest that the strategic increase in U.S. stock exposure by BlackRock may set a precedent for other major asset managers. Historically, shifts of this magnitude have influenced broader market behaviors as others follow suit. Market analysts point to the favorable economic environment and technological advancements that are propelling the AI sector’s momentum. The continued growth of AI technologies is…

Bitcoin Rainbow chart predicts BTC price for October 1, 2025

The post Bitcoin Rainbow chart predicts BTC price for October 1, 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Bitcoin (BTC) Rainbow Chart has outlined potential price ranges for October 1, 2025, as the asset seeks to reclaim the $120,000 resistance. Throughout September, the maiden cryptocurrency has struggled to push past the $115,000 support zone. At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $115,950, up 0.15% in the past 24 hours and gaining a modest 0.5% over the past week. Bitcoin seven-day price chart. Source: Finbold Looking ahead to October 1, the Rainbow Chart projects that Bitcoin’s price could fall within a broad band of $36,628 to $409,726, depending on prevailing market sentiment. The Rainbow Chart, a long-term valuation model often used to track Bitcoin’s price cycles, is built as a logarithmic regression chart. It color-codes Bitcoin’s valuation bands, offering investors a simplified way to gauge whether the market is undervalued or overheated. Bitcoin price prediction  The lowest tier, labeled “Basically a Fire Sale,” spans from $36,628 to $47,947. Above that, the “BUY!” zone ranges from $47,947 to $64,777, while “Accumulate” covers $64,777 to $83,811. The “Still Cheap” band sets Bitcoin between $83,811 and $108,471, followed by the neutral “HODL!” zone at $108,471 to $142,332. Bitcoin Rainbow chart.

In this case, the “Is this a bubble?” range extends from $142,332 to $181,644, while “FOMO intensifies” lies between $181,644 and $233,215. On the other hand, the red zones, seen as overheated territory, start with “Sell. Seriously, SELL!” at $233,215 to $304,169 and peak with “Maximum Bubble Territory” from $304,169 to $409,726. With Bitcoin trading around $116,000 as of September 20, the Rainbow Chart suggests that by October 1, 2025, the asset will most likely fall within the “Still Cheap” or “HODL!” bands, implying a fair value between $83,811 and $142,332. This outlook indicates that despite Bitcoin’s strong gains, the model places…
