Why BingX strategy chief Kevin Lee says traders want 'The Whole Board'

Markets stopped behaving like separate worlds a while ago. A Federal Reserve decision can move Bitcoin, gold, the Nasdaq and the dollar within hours. A geopolitical shock can hit oil before spilling into currencies, equities and crypto. Traders may start with one view of the market, then find that the opportunity appears somewhere else entirely.  SummaryBingX strategy chief Kevin Lee says traders increasingly want to act on opportunities across crypto and traditional markets from one account.BingX now offers more than 500 instruments across stocks, indices, commodities and forex alongside its crypto markets.Lee says unified capital, liquidity and execution matter more than simply adding more assets to an exchange.Traditional asset perpetuals can reduce account fragmentation, but derivatives, leverage and extended trading hours introduce their own risks.  Kevin Lee argues that trading platforms are still catching up. The recently appointed Chief Strategy Officer at BingX spent more than 15 years working with exchanges in traditional finance before taking on his current role. Lees argument goes beyond instrument count.  “The move was never opportunistic,” he said. “It was structural.”  One macro view, multiple markets  Bitcoin still has its own market dynamics. Lees point is that it now reacts more like a high-beta risk asset, especially when macro conditions

California signs into law restrictions banning public officers from issuing crypto meme coins

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 2409 on Sept. 27, setting two restrictions on political meme coins. Covered California public officers and certain government employees will be barred from issuing them. Digital asset service providers face a separate limit on listing new official-linked coins for California residents.  Related Law California Meme Coin Law (AB 2409) California · Enacted  The enrolled bill makes an officials role central to both provisions. Its listing clause covers a coin offered by or in partnership with a federal public official or a state or local public officer, provided the coin was issued on or after Jan. 1, 2027. The January 1 date is a threshold for which newly issued coins fall under the provider listing rule.  For the direct issuance ban, a California public officer includes elected and appointed state or local officers, legislators and members of government boards or commissions. Membership on a body with only advisory powers still falls within the definition. The employee category reaches state and local government workers with decisionmaking authority over procurement offers and contracts for their employer. An advisory-board appointee can fall within the officer category; an employees coverage depends on the contracting authority attached to the job.  The bill defines “issue”

Ethereums next scaling leap may come from making everyone stop doing the same work

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin says advances in cryptography could turn decentralization from a performance cost into a scaling advantage for the network.  Related Asset Ethereum #2 ETH · $2,675.65 24-hour change: down 0.45% Loading price history… 24H Down 0.45% 7D Down 2.56% 30D Up 9.42%  In a Sept. 27 essay, Buterin described Ethereums long-term destination as a “cryptographic world computer,” an architecture in which computation and data can increasingly be distributed across different participants while compact proofs allow others to cheaply verify that the work was performed correctly.  The shift would mark a departure from the traditional blockchain model in which every node downloads transactions and repeats much of the same computation. Instead, Ethereum could push more work across a wider network of specialized participants without requiring every validator to reproduce it, potentially allowing decentralization itself to contribute to performance.  Related Person Vitalik Buterin Co-Founder · Ethereum  “Perhaps the most important shift” is that decentralization is moving beyond being a burden accepted for safety and robustness and can, in limited cases, become a performance strength, Buterin wrote. Distributed networks can store larger quantities of data and run more computation in parallel, including work around the transaction mempool.  That revives one of Ethereums earliest ambitions.

Evernorths XRP buying power could shrink if SPAC shareholders redeem this week

Shareholders of Armada Acquisition Corp. II, the cash-holding SPAC seeking to merge with XRP treasury company Evernorth Holdings, have until 5 p.m. Eastern on Sept. 28 to request redemption of their public shares, unless the board sets a later deadline. The merger vote is scheduled for Sept. 30. Every redeemed share removes cash that Evernorth could otherwise consider for future XRP purchases after a closing. Armadas definitive proxy sets both dates, but it does not disclose how many shareholders will redeem.

The potential new buying depends on cash left after redemptions and on how management uses it. The proxy placed about $241.9 million in Armadas trust on Aug. 20, before those redemption decisions. A September filing added a separate $30 million financing agreement, but the notes would be funded only if the merger closes, and Evernorth may use the proceeds for purposes other than buying XRP. The two cash sources can support future buying only if the

Crypto scammers built an entire fake blockchain to steal over $2 million

Scammers built a counterfeit version of Upbit-backed GIWA blockchain and lured 1,333 wallets into depositing 767 ETH, worth about $2 million, before draining almost all of it.  Related Company Upbit Global A South Korean cryptocurrency exchange  The fake network appeared to be GIWAs anticipated Ethereum Layer 2 mainnet, complete with an RPC endpoint, cross-chain bridge, and Chain ID 9134, the identifier associated with the planned launch.  But GIWAs mainnet was not live.  Related Asset Ethereum ETH · $2,675.65 24-hour change: down 0.45%  In an X post, GIWA said claims that its production RPC had leaked were false because no mainnet RPC exists. Its documentation lists only GIWA Sepolia, which uses Chain ID 91342, while the production network remains under development.  DYORSWAP, whose community initially interacted with the purported network, later said the chain was fraudulent and warned users against unofficial RPC endpoints, bridges and contracts. It stated:  “The fake network used the correct GIWA Chain ID (9134), which made it appear legitimate during our initial verification. We have also identified specific suspicious messages and individuals in the related community that may be connected to this incident.”  Dunamu, operator of South Korea‘s largest crypto exchange, Upbit, is developing GIWA using Optimism’s OP Stack.

Bitcoin Price Forecast: Trump Rejects Iran Ceasefire, BTC Falls

Today‘s Bitcoin price forecast starts on a softer note: Bitcoin (BTC) slipped to roughly $83,050 on Monday afternoon in Asia, down 1.8% over 24 hours, as geopolitical risk overtook a market that had spent the weekend holding steady near $84,400. The pullback still leaves BTC up about 1.9% over seven days: a reminder that this is a repricing, not a rout. There’s a detail buried further down in the flow data, though, that complicates the simple “risk-off” narrative.  The trigger was Washington‘s rejection of Tehran’s seven-day ceasefire proposal, which would have reopened the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the lifting of sanctions, the release of frozen assets, and a broader regional truce. President Trump confirmed the decision Saturday, saying, “It is what we would have maybe agreed to a year ago,” and the Wall Street Journal reported he has told aides he expects to resume strikes on Iran after the November 3 midterms. Trump confirmed he rejected Irans peace proposal in comments that immediately rattled Asian trading desks. Brent crude closed last week near $104 a barrel, keeping inflation risk in the frame alongside the military one.  Ethererum, XRP and Solana all fell in sympathy, and the total crypto market capitalisation

BitMEX Shutdown Update: Live Support Now Lists Manual Web Withdrawals and Ethereum-Only USDT/USDC/ETH

BitMEX is now a withdrawal-only environment, and its current live support documentation is more restrictive than the older schedule wording.  The closure FAQ originally said two technical changes would take effect on:  September 28, 2026 at 04:00 UTCAPI withdrawals disabled;USDT/USDC/ETH multi-network fungibility removed.  However, BitMEXs newer live withdrawal-limitations page already states those restrictions as the current operating state.  Following WikiBits policy of using current official operational status rather than an older scheduled description, this page treats the restrictions as already in effect.Current withdrawal state  BitMEXs support page currently says:Manual web only  API withdrawals are disabled.  Users must submit withdrawals through the web account portal.  This removes automated/institutional workflows that depend on:BitMEX API;Fireblocks integration;Copper integration;internal treasury automation.Ethereum-only for three assets  Asset fungibility across multiple networks has been removed.  BitMEX says:USDT;USDC;ETH;  are available for withdrawal only via:  Ethereum  Users must verify the destination supports the Ethereum version of the asset.Why WikiBit is using the live support state  The closure FAQ and the current limitations page are both BitMEX sources.  The older FAQ describes a planned date.  The current operational page describes what restrictions are currently in place.  When those conflict, a current service-status page is the more relevant source for users trying to withdraw now.  WikiBit therefore does not tell users that API withdrawals remain available merely because an older
