Fidelity's Bitcoin ETF Records Daily Inflow Of Over $8 Million

Cutoshi

Spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted a record-breaking inflow of close to $1.4B on Thursday, according to Senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust collected more than $1.1B of this total. Other funds, including the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, also attracted a noticeable daily inflow exceeding $8M. The surge coincided with BTC hitting the $76,943 mark. Tron also recorded an unprecedented surge in its transfer volume, which increased by 1928% over the year, as per data from Symbiosis. Moreover, as the two crypto giants continue to record impressive milestones, a new DeFi hybrid known as Cutoshi has also stood out, raising over 730K in its presale, which is only in 3rd stage. Cutoshi Farming Continues To Attract Major Investors Due to its unique innovations, Cutoshi is quickly becoming a viral crypto project. The project is designed to bring utility and luck to its investors through its unique hybrid DeFi ecosystem. Moreover, Cutoshi farming, now live, aims to provide its community members with a new way of earning money by completing quests and being rewarded with CUTO tokens. Cutoshi also stands out due to its decentralized exchange, offering users a low-fee, high-speed asset training experience across blockchains. The project also focuses on educating investors through the Cutoshi Academy, which helps learners understand the basics of DeFi and cryptocurrency technology. Through this feature, new investors could educate themselves about DeFi and discover new approaches to building a profitable portfolio. With a stage three presale price of $0.0259, Cutoshi is already offering over 70% ROI to early buyers. Given the CUTO token's capped supply of just 440M, this price is also set to surge in the next presale, which could help drive immense demand for the token, leading to token scarcity and driving the Cutoshi price even higher. Bitcoin Price Hits $77K Two Days After U.S. Election The price of Bitcoin crossed the $77K mark on November 8, setting a new ATH for the second consecutive day. This latest price mark was set just two days after Donald Trump won the US presidential election, topped with the election of several pro-crypto policymakers to Congress. With a market cap of over $1.5T, BTC is now the world’s ninth most valuable asset, surpassing Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta. Bitcoin’s YTD growth has also surged by over 115% as the BTC price trades around the $76,600 mark. Over the past month, the price of Bitcoin has surged by over 26%, with seasonal trends and halving-year data suggesting bullish prospects. Moreover, Bitcoin has always hit new highs during the previous two election cycles without returning to pre-election levels. Supported by technical indicators and the recent daily inflows of Bitcoin ETFs, the price of BTC could hit the $100K target before the year ends, followed by $200K by 2025. Adding to this momentum, the US Federal Reserve has lowered interest rates by 0.25%, a rare cut that could contribute to Bitcoin’s bullish sentiment. Tron Dao Unveils Tron-Peg USD Coin For Cross-Chain Transactions On Blockchain Tron Dao has unveiled the Tron-Peg USD Coin within the TRX blockchain, a new cross-chain designed to streamline global transactions while expanding Tron’s stablecoin ecosystem. This launch will allow users to leverage USD Coin across the TRX network, enhancing cross-chain functionality for a seamless and secure transaction. Tron-Peg USD Coin will simplify USDC transfers within Ethereum and Tron, establishing itself as a stablecoin bridge. Moreover, qualified users can acquire the Tron-Peg USD Coin through a straightforward cross-chain process. This strategic launch comes when Tron’s price performance has recorded a weekly dip of over 3% to trade around the $0.16 mark. If Tron’s price manages to overcome the $0.16 position, it would be on a path for further gains towards $0.17. Its RSI is also at 47, which suggests that the asset is still in a neutral position. Its 50—and 100-day SMAs, which are at $0.1593 and $0.1526, provide significant support should the TRX price dip. Can Cutoshi Mirror BTC Price Performance In Q4? As Bitcoin continues to experience significant price performance, Cutoshi is also looking to push Ethereum-based meme coins back into the limelight. Due to the project's DeFi ecosystem and built-in utilities, its growing presale is set to record significant price performance in Q4.

Cutoshi Hits #1 Worldwide And In The USA – The Hype Behind $CUTO’s Explosive Growth

Cutoshi

Cutoshi, a memeFi project in presale, took X by storm yesterday as it went viral and took the number 1 trending spot worldwide and in the USA, for over 8 hours. This hype also spread worldwide, as $CUTO became the trending keyword for all countries. The term DeFi was also trending worldwide yesterday, showing that Cutoshi is proving itself to be one of the hottest decentralized crypto projects around. Meme Appeal Cutoshi is cute and catchy, bringing Lucky Cat energy to the blockchain and people’s digital assets. As crypto booms thanks to new all-time highs for Bitcoin, memecoins continue to dominate the market as the most profitable and engaged-with sector in crypto. And as of today, the meme coin market cap is at $105 billion according to CoinMarketCap, with a 24 hour trading volume of $60 billion. That shows us that a lot of people are trading memes right now. DOGE has been on a tear and has also been trending on X since the US elections, proving the enduring nature of important memecoins. MemeFi Hybrid Approach While DOGE has a first mover advantage as a memecoin, Cutoshi is new and in presale. There is another important difference between the two coins - utility. Dogecoin doesn’t have utility, or at least very little (it's accepted as payment in certain places, according to their website). Cutoshi, on the other hand, does. Cutoshi is currently building a cross-chain DEX to simplify swapping and trading on the blockchain, and a whole ecosystem revolving around the benefits of DeFi. The aim is to introduce people to DeFi and then help them to make the most out of it, and that’s why they are offering a learning academy to help people find out more in a fun way. $CUTO will be used throughout the ecosystem, ensuring that the token has true utility, which is essential for ensuring the price moves in the right direction. Fun And Community Is Key All good crypto projects have a loyal community. Decentralized exchanges like Uniswap and 1inch clearly have a loyal community. Cutoshi is currently engaging their growing community through quests and challenges such as meme-making. And because people love the fun of competition, they have built a leaderboard so that people can spur each other on. These quests accrue points, which will be swapped for $CUTO tokens, airdropped once the coin goes live. This ensures that all early community members are rewarded for their participation and can have more skin in the game. Over 1500 people have taken part in the quests within days of launch. Cutoshi Investors Are Early As anyone who’s taken a look at meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu knows, the ones who got in early profited the most, with DOGE up by an impressive 435,594% since its launch and SHIB up by an amazing 42,665,342%. Just $10 invested at this time in SHIB would have made a current holder over $4 million dollars! Although returns like this are exceptional, new coins are the way to get huge gains. Cutoshi is currently in presale phase; given the hype around it, it could be the next life-changing coin for wealth generation.

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark

Cutoshi

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark The US presidential election race is over, and the atmosphere in the crypto market is one of glee as the market warms up to the news of Donald Trump’s presidency. Bitcoin (BTC), as expected, was one of the first to hit new heights, and the rest of the market followed accordingly. But prior to all that spike in the BTC price, Bitcoin ETFs were on a streak of outflows. Even Tron (TRX) is yet to join the profit train, but Cutoshi (CUTO) is trending among traders. Despite Bitcoin Price Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Dip The US elections were supposed to be a boost to the Bitcoin ETFs, but unlike the Bitcoin price, they were on a dip in the run-up to the election. The iShares Bitcoin Trust led the losses at the start of the week, with $44.2 million in outflows even before election day. BlackRock and ten of the other ETFs posted $116.8 million outflows on election day, led by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund. It was a rare occurrence for most of the ETFs, especially BlackRock stating only its sixth day of loss since its launch in January. Their fortunes changed with the election results, when the BTC price broke past its $75,000 resistance. The Bitcoin ETFs recorded over a billion dollars in inflows on election day, with BlackRock seeing injections up to $1.1 billion on that day. The next few days will be crucial as the market anticipates further surges in the BTC price. Tron Integrations See Chainlink Oracle Links And ETH-TRX Bridges Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun announced the introduction of Chainlink's oracle feeds to the Tron blockchain to increase security to its DApps, typically JustLend and JustStable. Both DeFi apps are worth about $6.5 billion on the network. Sun made the statement at the Chainlink SmartsCon event in Hong Kong, of which Tron (TRX) was a silver sponsor. The founder stated that the TRON crypto network was going to join in the Chainlink Scale Program, integrating the oracles to also provide developers with access to reliable oracle services, as well as opportunities for the stablecoins and RWAs locked on the blockchain. For the USDC on Tron (TRX), there are new bridges connecting the network with Ethereum through the TRON-Peg USD coin. The token facilitates smoother stablecoin transfer between both chains, contributing to the growing wave of interoperability that is taking over the DeFi space. The TRON price is currently trading at a weekly 3.59% loss, but the new development on the project could soon drive the TRON price into bullish trends. Cutoshi: Meme Coin Combined With DeFi Utilities Cutoshi’s origin is firmly rooted in meme and DeFi, sporting the lucky charm the Lucky Cat and blockchain principles from Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto's teachings. The Decentralized Exchange platform is an avenue for users, especially the meme enthusiasts on the ecosystem, to access token swap and exchange services without leaving the interface. The traffic and insecurity of current exchanges makes Cutoshi's DEX a great alternatives option for traders. Another standout feature of the Cutoshi (CUTO) project will be its token farming. Users earn tokens by participating in challenges and completing tasks to accumulate points. These points can then be redeemed into CUTO tokens to boost investors' crypto portfolios. The token farming is already live, and more than 1500 users are already actively raking in rewards. The $CUTO token presale has raised over $800,000 so far. This traction doesn’t look like it’s going to slow down anytime soon. CUTO Attracts Massive Investors Inflow Bitcoin (BTC) and TRON (TRX) have experienced contrasting fates recently. The Bitcoin price is touching new highs, and TRX is still deep in bullish waters with TRON’s recent integration. The Cutoshi project is attracting investor interest with its presale and CUTO farming features that let users earn while having fun. The new meme coin could potentially deliver bigger gains than other top meme coins.

The Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) Leads Economic Growth as EIRC Initiative Surpasses $500 Million Milestone

Bermuda Business Development Agency

October 10, 2024 – The Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) is pleased to announce that the Economic Investment Residential Certificate (EIRC) initiative has surpassed $500 million in investments. This milestone reinforces Bermuda’s position as a premier destination for global investors, showcasing the EIRC’s pivotal role in driving sustained economic growth while enhancing the island’s appeal to high-net-worth individuals seeking both exceptional investments and an unmatched island lifestyle. Since its launch in 2021, The BDA has successfully provided concierge services for all EIRC applicants, guiding them through each phase of the process and ensuring a smooth, seamless experience. This tailored approach has been instrumental in driving economic growth, attracting affluent investors from around the world, including the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Spain. With a minimum investment of $2.5 million, participants gain permanent residency in Bermuda and the flexibility to invest in real estate, new and existing local businesses, Government bonds (previously offered), or social causes. To date, 58 approved applications have driven substantial capital into local enterprises and the property market. The EIRC does however offer more than financial benefits; many certificate holders are drawn to Bermuda because of personal connections, whether through birth, marriage, or long-standing relationships with the island. As a result, these stakeholders are not solely investing capital—they have become part of Bermuda’s community. Data shows that nearly half of a country’s economic growth typically originates from individuals already embedded in the community, and Bermuda is no different. By becoming part of the island’s fabric, these stakeholders unlock even greater opportunities for investment and growth, driving Bermuda’s continued economic success. The Honourable Jason Hayward, Minister of Economy and Labour, commented on the programme's success: "The EIRC initiative has proven to be a vital tool for stimulating economic development in Bermuda. By attracting high-net-worth individuals who are not only investing but also establishing Bermuda as their home, we are creating long-term opportunities for the island. Surpassing the $500 million mark is a significant achievement, and we are confident that the BDA and EIRC programme will continue to contribute positively to Bermuda’s economic growth." Kyle Rogers, Research and Intelligence Manager at the BDA, is also responsible for overseeing the concierge service that supports applicants throughout the entire EIRC process. He ensures seamless management of the certificates, providing crucial guidance from initial inquiry, through comprehensive candidate evaluation, to final approval. He stated, "Reaching $500 million is a testament to Bermuda’s unique offering as both a business hub and an exceptional place to live. The EIRC initiative continues to generate significant value by attracting capital and new residents who are committed to the island’s long-term success. We are excited about the programme’s growth and the bright future ahead." Of the total $500 million investment, $212 million has been directed towards new businesses, $231 million into real estate, $49 million into existing local enterprises, $2.6 million into Government bonds, and $6 million into social ventures deemed beneficial to Bermuda and subject to the Minister’s approval. Jonathan Halata, a developer, investor, and successful EIRC applicant, shared his experience: "As Canadians and Brits, my family has been connected to Bermuda since the 1970s. The EIRC wasn’t just about investing money; it was about building a life for my husband and daughter, and contributing to the community my family has become part of." "My investment in Bermuda extends far beyond financial returns—it's about contributing to the development of premier assets like hotels and tourism infrastructure. Island Realty projects like Azura and Nautilus have brought something unique to Bermuda and created dozens of jobs, which are vital for both airlift and the livelihoods of Bermudians. "I see a direct link between the EIRC programme and Bermuda’s future growth. It’s not just about selling homes—it’s about creating lasting opportunities. Multiplying our experience by 10, 50, or 100 could generate significant new jobs for Bermudians." "The EIRC certificate process was much easier than I expected, especially knowing the complexities with immigration and work permits. The BDA’s white-glove service, with Kyle’s personal attention to detail, made a tremendous difference. They delivered exactly what was promised, with a ribbon on top."
