Bitwise2026-09-27 12:04:59Bitwise files final prospectus for NEAR spot ETF and publishes 39-page investment reportBitwise has filed the final prospectus for its NEAR spot ETF and released a 39-page investment report on the token, with Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan listed as a contributor. The report lays out several valuation cases for NEAR through 2030. In Bitwise’s base case, NEAR reaches $155 by 2030. In an extreme bull case, the target rises to $562, while the bear case puts the token at $1.63. The document does not avoid downside risk and explicitly includes the possibility of a sharp decline in NEAR’s price. In its most optimistic scenario, Bitwise compares NEAR with Visa as one of the reference points for future potential value. The report says Visa processed $15.7 trillion in payment volume in 2024 and currently has a market capitalization of about $701 billion. It also includes a product page for Bitwise Europe’s NEAR ETP at the end of the report.270

Dogecoin2026-09-27 09:10:32U.S. spot Dogecoin ETFs post record $2.89 million weekly inflowU.S. spot Dogecoin exchange-traded funds recorded a net inflow of $2.89 million in the week ended Sept. 25, the highest weekly total since the products launched, according to SoSoValue data cited by Techub and BeInCrypto. The previous weekly record was $2.59 million in the week ended Jan. 2. The flow shift came after Bitwise said it will liquidate its Dogecoin ETF, BWOW, on Oct. 14. Since that announcement was made on Sept. 10, money has mainly moved into Grayscale’s Dogecoin ETF, GDOG. Over that period, GDOG’s cumulative net inflows rose from $11.70 million to $15.46 million. GDOG now holds about $13.87 million in assets, accounting for 81% of total assets in the U.S. spot Dogecoin ETF category. Even so, assets held by Dogecoin ETFs still represent only 0.11% of Dogecoin’s total market capitalization. For comparison, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs logged $2.39 billion in net inflows during the same week, more than 800 times the amount that flowed into Dogecoin ETFs.260

Bitcoin2026-09-26 13:57:08Benson Sun says Bitcoin may climb in a slow bull cycle, with institutional divergence as a key warning signCrypto KOL and former FTX community partner Benson Sun said he expects Bitcoin to post a slower, step-by-step bull run in this cycle rather than a sharp blow-off top like those seen in 2013 and 2017. In his view, the market may show several local topping signals before a true cycle peak arrives. Sun argued that since 2021, the main source of BTC demand has been shifting away from retail investors toward institutions such as public companies, spot ETF buyers, and corporate treasuries. Because these players mainly buy spot, while some capital also runs delta-neutral arbitrage strategies, traditional cycle-top indicators such as funding rates and the MVRV Z-Score may not return to past extremes. He said a more likely topping pattern in the current market would be fading institutional follow-through rather than fully overheated retail sentiment. To track that, he uses an Institutional Liquidity Index, or ILI, which references overall U.S. dollar liquidity, Strategy’s mNAV, and net Bitcoin ETF flows. A yellow divergence appears when BTC makes a rolling 30-day high without a corresponding rise in ILI. A red divergence appears when BTC breaks an all-time high while ILI diverges and stays below 50. Sun said he uses repeated yellow divergences to reduce altcoin exposure and leverage, then raise BTC allocation over time. If a red divergence appears, he said he would stop participating.260
