Kindly MD’s $5B Bitcoin Play Comes as DATs Raise Fears for Wider Altcoin Liquidity

Kindly MD’s $5B Bitcoin Play Comes as DATs Raise Fears for Wider Altcoin Liquidity

The post Kindly MD’s $5B Bitcoin Play Comes as DATs Raise Fears for Wider Altcoin Liquidity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Nasdaq-listed Kindly MD filed an automatic shelf registration for up to $5 billion. The move follows a $679 million Bitcoin purchase through its subsidiary. Analysts warn Bitcoin-focused treasuries may drain liquidity from altcoins. Nasdaq-listed healthcare firm Kindly MD filed an automatic shelf registration statement with the SEC on Tuesday, electing to distribute up to $5 billion in stock as it expands its capital reach following a $679 million Bitcoin purchase last week. “Bitcoin will serve as our primary treasury reserve asset, and we are focused on accumulating a long-term Bitcoin position,” Kindly MD stated in the filing. The filing establishes Kindly MD as a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer, a designation that allows the company to tap capital markets with more flexibility.   It also authorizes a mix of instruments beyond common stock, with distribution handled by underwriters including Cantor Fitzgerald, TD Securities, and B. Riley Securities in the U.S., as well as Canada’s Canaccord Genuity, among others. Last week, Kindly MD disclosed a $679 million Bitcoin purchase through its subsidiary, Nakamoto Holdings, marking the first acquisition under its new treasury reserve strategy in a move it said reinforces its “conviction in Bitcoin” as “the ultimate reserve asset” for corporations and institutions. While the WKSI status “clearly gives a company an advantage in capital raising,” it also imposes pressure “due to the large issuance volumes and high market volatility risks,” Jay Jo, senior analyst at Tiger Research, told Decrypt. At the expense of altcoins “Institutional crypto exposure has, without fear, expanded into corporate balance sheets and treasury strategies,” Kelvin Koh, co-founder and CIO at Asia-based venture capital firm Spartan Group, told Decrypt.  This has been the case since “the approval of U.S. Bitcoin ETFs in early 2024,” which had aligned with the Trump administration’s pro-crypto policies that “have eventuated as…

Cardano Gains 2%, Shrugs Off ETF Delay

Cardano Gains 2%, Shrugs Off ETF Delay

Cardano’s ADA token climbed 2% to $0.87 in the past 24 hours, echoing a broader recovery across crypto markets. The CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20), which tracks the largest digital assets, gained 2.8% over the same period.The move came as traders weighed two major developments: growing confidence in a September interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) decision to extend its review of Grayscale’s proposed spot Cardano exchange-traded fund (ETF) until late October 2025.ADA traded in a tight but volatile $0.04 band, swinging between a low of $0.83 and a high of $0.88, according to data from CoinDesk Analytics. That spread of roughly 5% reflected heightened activity. At one point, the token broke sharply higher, surging from $0.84 to $0.88 on trading volumes that more than doubled the 24-hour average of 39.3 million.After the breakout, ADA settled into consolidation. Traders pegged resistance at $0.88, with new support forming around $0.85. Late-session action saw the price stabilize at $0.86, a level analysts say may point to institutional accumulation ahead of another potential rally.The broader market backdrop has been choppy. Crypto assets fell sharply Monday as traders locked in profits from a weekend surge sparked by Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s dovish remarks in Jackson Hole. Those comments fueled expectations of rate cuts, which typically support risk assets like cryptocurrencies by making traditional yields less attractive. By Tuesday, investors appeared to treat the pullback as a buying opportunity, helping altcoins rebound.Lower interest rates often act as a tailwind for the crypto sector, where investors hunt for higher returns compared with government debt. Historically, such conditions have set the stage for “altcoin season,” periods where smaller tokens outperform bitcoin (BTC) during consolidation phases.Meanwhile, the SEC’s delay of Grayscale’s Cardano ETF was widely anticipated, as the regulator has slowed nearly all spot crypto ETF decisions. While the news briefly injected uncertainty, ADA’s resilience suggested traders were more focused on broader market momentum and capital rotation from bitcoin into altcoins.

Forbes Shares XRP Price Timeline for the Next 5 Years

Forbes Shares XRP Price Timeline for the Next 5 Years

Forbes contributor Zennon Kapron has outlined what the next five years could look like for XRP, following the resolution of its legal battle with the SEC. In August 2025, the SEC and Ripple dismissed their appeals, leaving intact the 2023 ruling that sales of XRP on public exchanges are not securities. This outcome has lifted a major barrier to institutional adoption. It allows XRP to reassert itself as one of the leading cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. XRP’s Current Market Position Currently, XRP is trading at $3, with a market cap of around $179 billion, ranking it among the top three digital assets. Daily trading volume regularly surpasses $6 billion, while improved liquidity metrics make it more viable for larger institutional orders. Its price now hovers close to levels last seen during the 2017–2018 bull cycle amid renewed investor confidence in the token. Utility and Adoption Outlook The Forbes article noted that XRP’s next phase will be determined by its use in payments beyond speculation. It cited an estimate of over $5 by Finder as XRP price by 2030, but most would suggest this is a bearish outlook especially considering XRP's drivers identified by the Forbes report. For one, the XRP Ledger, optimized for low-cost and fast settlement, added an automated market maker (AMM) in 2024 to deepen liquidity. According to XRPScan data, AMMs have accumulated over 11.7 million XRP tokens across 22,035 active pools. Meanwhile, Forbes noted that Ripple Payments (formerly RippleNet) now covers more than 90 markets and supports settlements in fiat currencies, stablecoins, and XRP. Corridors like Japan–Philippines and Africa’s Onafriq are already leveraging XRP.  As a result, broader adoption could be driven by cost-cutting in remittances, which exceeded $685 billion globally in 2024, with average fees around 6%. Institutional Demand and ETFs The report also noted that Ripple’s dollar-backed stablecoin, RLUSD, custodied by BNY, is aimed at attracting institutions. They have the flexibility to route some transactions through XRP when it proves more efficient. Further, other avenues to generate demand for XRP include ETFs. The report highlighted that multiple filings for U.S. spot XRP ETFs could unlock a new demand channel, similar to what happened with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Forbes’ Five-Year Outlook for XRP According to the analysis, XRP’s upside lies in its newfound legal clarity, expanding payment corridors, and growing liquidity. These factors make it more attractive for payments and investment products. However, competition from stablecoins, central bank digital currencies, and upgrades to existing systems like SWIFT could limit adoption. Regarding XRP's five-year outlook, Forbes cited a Finder expert panel in July 2025, which predicted that XRP would trade at $2.80 by year-end and $5.25 by 2030. It said whether XRP realizes that trajectory depends largely on how much of Ripple’s payment flows pass through XRP rather than fiat or stablecoins. Meanwhile, other industry publications have also issued XRP price forecasts for 2030, most of which are optimistic. Bitwise, for example, expects XRP to trade at $29 by 2030. Telgaon predicts $48, while Changelly forecasts $23. Meanwhile, prominent voices in the XRP community have set much higher targets, such as $100 and beyond. Forbes concludes that with legal uncertainty resolved, XRP has a stronger footing. Yet, its long-term role will depend on adoption in real-world corridors and institutional access through capital markets.
