A former China Construction Bank (Asia) relationship manager has been sentenced to four years in prison in Hong Kong after accepting more than $470,000 in Tether (USDT) bribes to authenticate false financial documents valued at more than $1.6 billion.　　Lam Chun-yin, 32, was sentenced at Hong Kongs District Court on September 18 after pleading guilty to conspiring with a fintech company employee and other associates to accept bribes.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Builds 'Bull Combo': Will Weekly Chart Finally Delete a Zero？

A rare technical setup has formed on Shiba Inus (SHIB) weekly chart, potentially triggering the process of removing another zero from the assets price. The market has recorded a classic “bullish combo,” where long-term seller exhaustion has coincided with a local price reversal.　　Right now, the token is trading near its local bottom at $0.00000547, showing a weekly gain of 6.72%. The intrigue of the current situation lies in the technical divergence between the price and the actual indicator readings.　　The main argument in favor of a reversal is the formation of a classic bullish RSI divergence. While SHIBs price has been consistently setting new lows over the past several months, the Relative Strength Index has shown a series of higher lows on the weekly timeframe.　　This signal has provided a clear indication that selling pressure has been exhausted and the bearish trend is running out of steam.　　Shiba Inu chart stalls near local bottom but prepares to erase a zero: A concise breakdown of the situation　　As a result, two key drivers have emerged on the chart:RSI divergence: Higher lows on the oscillator confirm a hidden influx of liquidity into the asset.Support at the bottom: The current green impulse has allowed the price to

Bitcoin Price Nears 4 Million Lira as Turkeys Currency Hits the Floor

Key TakeawaysTurkeys lira is near 48.8 per dollar, while a single bitcoin now costs almost 4 million lira.TCMB rates sit at 37%, but with inflation at 31.51%, Turkish savers are still feeling the squeeze.Turkey lets people buy and hold bitcoin, but its 2021 rule still says they cant spend it directly.　　Nearly 4 Million Lira for One Bitcoin　　Five years ago, a Turkish saver needed fewer than nine lira to buy a U.S. dollar. Today, that same greenback costs nearly 49. Against bitcoin (BTC), the numbers have gone completely off the rails. One bitcoin now changes hands for roughly 3.95 million to 3.96 million lira, turning what was once an ordinary-looking exchange rate into a seven-digit price tag.　　The subject of the Turkish liras new lows has been a topical conversation on X. Image source: X　　The strange part is that Turkey hasnt suffered a sudden currency collapse. The lira has instead been bleeding purchasing power gradually, losing roughly 18% against the dollar over the past year and about 86% of its purchasing power over five years based on official inflation. Its a slow-motion squeeze inside an economy still measured at roughly $1.4 trillion to $1.6 trillion.　　A 37% Interest Rate Still Isnt Much Shelter　　Official

After CLARITY Act Stalls, Can Crypto Build on Temporary Regulatory Relief？

Senate blocks CLARITY Act, leaving crypto firms with uncertain and temporary regulation. SEC relief gives tokenized stock venues a five-year pathway with trading limits.CFTC Letter 26-25 eases software access but retains joint liability conditions.　　The Senates failure to advance the CLARITY Act has left crypto companies facing a key problem: regulatory permission without permanence. Senators rejected cloture on H.R. 3633 by 49-50 on September 15, preventing the chamber from moving forward with the bill.　　However, Sen. Thom Tillis entered a motion to reconsider, which left the measure procedurally stalled rather than formally dead. As a result, attention has shifted toward the SEC and CFTC, which have opened alternative pathways for tokenized stocks and derivatives.　　Although companies can use those routes, both still depend on agency relief rather than legislation. Consequently, firms now have regulatory pathways to build on, but those permissions remain less durable than rules established by Congress.　　SEC Tokenized Stock Relief Carries a Five-Year Expiry　　On September 17, the SEC issued its Innovation Exemption for Tokenized Securities Venues. SEC Chair Paul Atkins linked the move to Congress‘s failure to advance the CLARITY Act. The order gives qualifying venues five years of conditional relief from the Exchange Act’s definition of an exchange.　　Discover more　　News　　Currencies &

XRP Price Prediction: ChatGPT Forecasts 800% Gains, Pepeto To 50x？

This is a press release sponsored content. BlockchainReporter did not write, edit, or verify this content.　　The past few weeks have shown again how hard this market is to read, at least for people, and XRP holders felt it most. Sudden drops, sideways chop, endless guessing about the next move: each one sets off fear or greed, and both lead to poor trades.　　AI models like ChatGPT chew through huge piles of data within seconds and answer on logic and facts alone, which is why many analysts now treat them as a working tool, even a partner.　　The coin confusing traders most right now is XRP (XRP). It has been stuck between $1.33 and $1.45 for two weeks and sits at $1.38 on September 18, 2026, 5.99% up in 24 hours with an $84 billion market cap, per CoinMarketCap.　　So we gave ChatGPT this weeks XRP data and news and asked where the price goes next. The answer may surprise you. ChatGPT also singled out Pepeto, a meme coin with a live exchange that is still in presale, as the stronger bet, one that could reach 30x to 50x if the pieces line up.　　ChatGPT Sees $12 XRP as the ETF Count Grows　　Ten months after

‘Bitcoin winter is over,’ says Fidelity as its predicts a new 4-year bull market

Bitcoin rallied by 6% on Friday and reclaimed $80K as crude oil prices slipped below $100 per barrel. This eased fears of oil-driven inflation, sparking a strong rebound across U.S equity and crypto markets. For Fidelity, however, BTCs resilience also meant that it might be ready for its next bull market cycle run.　　Why Fidelity thinks Bitcoin winter is over　　According to Jurrien Timmer, Fidelitys Head of Global Macro, BTC has held above $60K for about a year.　　For him, two signals have been flagged – The 1-year Bitcoin winter and BTC/gold correlation turning positive. Timmer said that these signals confirm a durable bottom and potential early innings into the next bull cycle run.　　That‘s how long a typical Bitcoin winter lasts (1 year), so I’m sensing that a new 4-year cycle bull market is underway.　　Source: Fidelity　　He added that the market is now in a ‘new secular regime of higher cost of capital.’ He is expecting the government to respond with ‘financial repression.’ In other words, the government will do anything possible to contain the rising bond yields, including printing money.　　Discover more　　Digital Currencies　　FINANCE　　Merchant Services & Payment Systems　　Put differently, the inflation from U.S government intervention could trigger demand for scarce assets like Bitcoin and gold.　　Interestingly,

Blackstone Says India Is Nearing an Investment Tipping Point

Blackstone president says India is nearing a tipping point for foreign capital inflows. Gray credits Indias growth to improved infrastructure, legal systems, and capital markets.As Indias economy accelerates, focus may shift to fintech and digital assets next. 　　Blackstone Inc. President Jon Gray says that India is approaching an economic tipping point for foreign capital.　　Gray says the nation has delivered the firms highest private equity returns globally after a strategic shift to focus on control deals in IT services, commercial real estate, and domestic manufacturing.　　As infrastructure, capital markets, and tech talent in India are improving, the same investment environment could now create opportunities for fintech, tokenization, and digital assets, despite regulatory and market barriers.　　Blackstone President Says India Is Nearing an Investment Tipping Point　　In a recent interview, Blackstone President recalled that the firm‘s early experience in India was slow and unproductive. “We had sort of a skeleton crew. We didn’t really have a great defined strategy,” he said. “We couldnt make the numbers work. So we did basically nothing.” Those difficulties were exacerbated by the global financial crisis.　　The firm later revamped its strategy, acquiring majority or equal control interests and focusing on information-technology services, commercial real estate, and domestic manufacturing.

Clarity Act, we hardly knew ye: We look at what was in the bill and what's replacing it

The Clarity Act would have cleared that up and also elevated the SEC‘s sister agency, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, to new authorities — most importantly full supervisory powers over the crypto commodity spot markets. Spot markets are where commodities trade directly, and since bitcoin and Ethereum’s ether were eventually determined to be commodities, it became clear the bulk of crypto trading happens in that space thats absent a hands-on regulator (except in situations in which bad guys are manipulating the markets).　　Discover more　　Merchant Services & Payment Systems　　NEWS　　Currencies & Foreign Exchange　　This conflict is uniquely American, because the U.S.‘ regulatory regime developed completely separate securities and derivatives agencies, unlike the unification elsewhere. (Yes, everybody knows it’s unnecessarily complicated.) So figuring out which one is responsible for each asset has been a minefield from day one.　　Defining the different buckets of blockchain-native assets and who would regulate them was a core aspect of Clarity. Plus, the bill did a lot of things meant to curb illicit finance. And — in a particularly contentious arena — it sought to offer limited legal protections to software developers in decentralized finance (DeFi), so they wouldnt get prosecuted for how other people use their work.　　We‘ll pass on talking
