비트코인 10만달러 붕괴에도 비트코인 하이퍼 2,580만달러 모금 질주
핵심내용:
- 비트코인이 어제 10만 달러선을 하회했으며, 중국에 대한 미국의 관세 위협과 미국 정부 셧다운 등의 요인으로 인한 지속적인 불확실성이 영향을 미쳤다.
- 거래자들이 고위험 자산에서 벗어나 스테이블코인으로 자금을 이동하고 있다. 암호화폐 사전판매 역시 낮은 조기 진입 가격과 급등 가능성으로 인해 매력적인 투자처로 부상하고 있다.
- 비트코인 하이퍼가 현재 시장 침체 상황에서 승자 중 하나로 부상했으며, 진행 중인 토큰 사전 판매를 통해 현재까지 2,580만 달러 이상을 모금했다.
비트코인($BTC)이 어제 10만 달러 아래로 떨어졌으며, 불확실성이 암호화폐 시장 전반에 공황을 지속적으로 야기하고 있다. 세계 최대 암호화폐가 이 수준까지 하락한 것은 올해 5월 이후 처음이다.
기회주의자들에게는 이번 폭락이 저점 매수의 좋은 기회가 되고 있다. 일부 최고의 암호화폐 사전판매도 계속해서 상승세를 보이고 있다. 이 중에는 비트코인 하이퍼($HYPER)가 있으며, 현재까지 암호화폐 펀드레이징에서 2,580만 달러 이상을 모금한 상태다.
지난 24시간 동안 17억 4천만 달러 청산되며 트레이더들이 스테이블코인으로 이동시장에 불확실성이 여전히 드리워진 가운데, 코인글래스 데이터에 따르면 지난 24시간 동안 17억 4천만 달러 상당의 포지션이 청산되었으며, 이 중 롱 포지션이 13억 3천만 달러를 차지했다.
같은 기간 비트코인 포지션은 5억 481만 달러의 손실을 기록했으며, 이는 5억 7,708만 달러 상당의 포지션이 청산된 이더리움($ETH)에 이어 두 번째 규모다.
미국의 대중 관세 위협과 미국 정부 셧다운으로 인한 불확실성 등 다양한 요인들이 비트코인 가치를 끌어내리고 있다.
코인마켓캡의 공포탐욕지수에 따르면 암호화폐 시장이 깊은 ‘공포’ 영역에 있다. 글라이더 CEO 브라이언 황이 디크립트와의 인터뷰에서 언급한 바와 같이, 트레이더들이 고위험 자산에서 벗어나 스테이블코인으로 이동하고 있다.
스테이블코인 외에도 거래자들은 토큰 프리세일에 주목하고 있다. 시장 폭락 상황에서 낮은 진입점과 꾸준한 가격 상승을 제공하기 때문이다. 이러한 프리세일 중에서 비트코인 하이퍼($HYPER)가 승자 중 하나로 부상했으며, 투자자들로부터 수백만 달러를 지속적으로 모집하고 있다.
비트코인 하이퍼: 2025년 가장 뜨거운 사전 판매 중 하나, 멈출 기미를 보이지 않는다관점에 따라 현재 상황은 시장이 성숙해지기 시작하면서 겪는 성장통의 일부로 볼 수 있다. 과거 밈코인이 인기를 끌었던 반면, 이제 거래자들은 실제 유용성을 갖춘 토큰을 선호하는 경향을 보인다.
현재 진행 중인 비트코인 하이퍼($HYPER) 사전 판매가 이에 대한 전형적인 사례다.
최소한 $HYPER는 프로젝트 팀이 개발 중인 레이어-2(L2) 네트워크의 거래 수수료 지불에 활용된다. 이 외에도 해당 토큰은 거버넌스 권한과 함께 L2의 독점 기능에 대한 접근권을 제공한다.
L2는 특히 솔라나 가상머신을 통합할 예정이어서 투자자들로부터 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 이를 통해 현재 초당 최대 7건의 거래만 처리할 수 있는 비트코인 생태계에서 거래 속도가 빨라지고 비용이 저렴해질 전망이다.
또한 L2는 캐노니컬 브리지를 탑재하여 기본 네트워크에서 L2로 $BTC를 전송하고 스테이킹 및 디앱 상호작용 등 현재 비트코인으로는 불가능한 다양한 애플리케이션에 활용할 수 있게 한다.
이 흥미로운 프로젝트의 모든 세부사항을 다루는 포괄적인 비트코인 하이퍼 리뷰를 참고할 수 있다.
현재 공식 비트코인 하이퍼 사전 판매 페이지에서 $HYPER 토큰을 개당 0.013225달러에 구매할 수 있다. 사전 판매 종료 후 토큰을 수령하거나 즉시 스테이킹하여 연 45%의 패시브 보상을 받을 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.
또는 토큰을 보유하며 가치 상승을 기다리는 방법도 있다. 비트코인 하이퍼 가격 예측에 따르면 $HYPER는 2026년 0.20달러에 도달할 가능성을 보여 장기 투자가 매력적인 선택지가 되고 있다.
$HYPER 토큰 구매를 위한 단계별 안내가 필요한 경우, 비트코인 하이퍼 구매 가이드에서 관련 정보를 확인할 수 있다.
현재까지 사전 판매를 통해 2,580만 달러 이상을 모금했으며 계속 증가하고 있다. 이는 올해 가장 주목받는 자금 조달 사례 중 하나로 평가받고 있으며, 그럴 만한 이유가 있다. 실질적인 토큰 유틸리티와 비트코인 생태계에 꼭 필요한 업그레이드를 제공하겠다는 유망한 목표의 결합은 막대한 상승 잠재력을 가진 최고의 신규 암호화폐가 갖춰야 할 조건들을 충족하고 있다.
다음 가격 인상까지 이틀도 채 남지 않아 서둘러야 할 상황이다. 현재 가격으로 $HYPER 토큰을 구매할 수 있는 마지막 기회가 될 가능성이 높다.

Here’s Why The Bitcoin Price Is Crashing – The OGs Are Selling
With the Bitcoin price falling below $110,000 and the crash continuing to deepen, some revelations have surfaced about why this is happening at this time. Fingers had initially pointed to the bearish macro headwinds as the crypto market got caught in the crosshairs. However, on-chain data shows that it may be much simpler than that, and the decline is just due to good old dumping. More specifically, mega-Bitcoin whales of old are beginning to sell off their considerable stacks.
OG Bitcoin Whales Sell Over $1.7 Billion Worth Of BTCA post from the on-chain data aggregation platform, Lookonchain, confirmed that the Bitcoin price decline had indeed been triggered by major sell-offs. The post highlights the movement of massive amounts of bitcoin, ranging in the thousands, into crypto exchanges as these large whales begin to take profit.
The first of these belongs to an early Bitcoin whale, known only as 1011short, who moved their considerable stack of Bitcoin into various crypto exchanges. In total, the whale deposited 13,000 BTC into different crypto exchanges, which was worth a whopping $1.48 billion at the time of the deposit. The deposits went into exchanges such as Binance, Kraken, Coinbase, and Hyperliquid, starting as far back as October 1.
Another popular wallet, tied to early Bitcoin adopter Owen Gunden, also began moving in recent times. Gunden’s wallet saw the movement of 3,265 BTC, worth $364.5 million at the time, also into the Kraken crypto exchange. The movements began on October 21 and have continued into November.
Following the deposits of these massive tranches of BTC into the crypto exchange, the Bitcoin price began to decline, suggesting that the sell-offs had begun. However, there is no telling how long these sell-offs will continue as Gunden still holds over $700 million worth of BTC.
Crash Points To Sell PressureThe Bitcoin price being in a decline suggests that much of the average $65 billion daily volume recorded by the Coinglass website is actually coming in from sellers. If this continues and large whales continue to offload, it could send the price crashing toward $100,000.
However, with sentiment already so bad and the calls for a Bitcoin price top growing louder, it could mean that the cryptocurrency is headed toward a turning point, one that could change the face of things. A sharp Bitcoin reversal from here could see a shorts wipeout that could trigger a liquidation cascade.
Top Crypto Exchange Expands To Latin America With Argentina And Brazil Market Entry
European crypto exchange WhiteBIT has revealed its expansion across Latin America following key registrations with Argentine regulators and its forthcoming launch in Brazil.
WhiteBIT Expands To Argentina And BrazilCrypto exchange WhiteBIT announced its upcoming dual-entry into the Argentine and Brazilian markets, following regulatory advancements in the two largest countries in South America.
According to the announcement, the company will bring its business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) services to Argentina and Brazil as part of its strategy to increase its presence across the region.
The Latin American move follows the exchange’s regulatory achievements in multiple jurisdictions, including Australia, Croatia, and Italy, as well as its November 3 launch as a licensed operator in Kazakhstan.
The European crypto exchange is expected to integrate local fiat providers and add support for local currencies to “further enhance accessibility and convenience for domestic users in both countries.”
Notably, WhiteBIT has secured a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration in Argentina, seeking to provide seamless, secure access to exchange services for individual users and make digital assets simple and accessible to everyone.
Meanwhile, the exchange has already established a local branch in Brazil and is preparing to officially launch under the country’s upcoming VASP regulatory framework, set to take effect by year’s end.
The announcement noted that the dual-market expansion signals the start of a broader regional strategy to “foster wider adoption of regulated digital asset services across South America.”
Volodymyr Nosov, Founder and President of W Group, the global fintech ecosystem that includes WhiteBIT, affirmed that Latin America is “one of the most dynamic regions in the world when it comes to crypto adoption.”
“Securing our license in Argentina and preparing our launch in Brazil are key milestones in our mission to drive the global adoption of cryptocurrencies by offering reliable, transparent, and innovative digital assets solutions for users,” he continued.
Latin America’s Crypto AdoptionWhiteBIT highlighted the increase in regional crypto transaction volume in Latin America over the past year. As reported by Bitcoinist, Chainalysis’s 2025 Global Crypto Adoption Index report, Brazil and Argentina were among the leading countries in digital asset adoption this year.
According to the September report, Brazil ranked fifth, only behind India, the US, Pakistan, and Vietnam, leading in transaction volume and enterprise-level blockchain adoption. Meanwhile, Argentina ranked 14th, as it continues to rely on stablecoins as a hedge against inflation.
Moreover, Latin America has seen a 63% increase in cryptocurrency transaction volume in the past year, fueled by both individual and institutional participation. An October Chainalysis report also detailed that the region recorded nearly $1.5 trillion in crypto transactions between July 2022 and June 2025, reaching a record $87.7 billion in December 2024.
Although the volume has cooled in the first half of 2025, Latin America remains at a significantly higher baseline than in previous years, suggesting stable momentum behind crypto adoption.
Brazil dominated the region with $318.8 billion in digital asset value received during this period. This accounted for nearly one-third of Latin America’s total crypto activity. Argentina placed second regionally with $93.9 billion in transaction volume, while Mexico, Venezuela, and Colombia completed the top five.
The report also noted that centralized exchanges (CEXs) remain the dominant entry point for crypto across Latin America, with 64% of activity taking place on CEXs, which “reflects both accessibility and trust” for many users in the region, it concluded.

Panic At Stream Finance — $93 Million Loss Forces Platform Freeze
Stream Finance paused all deposits and withdrawals on its platform after reports disclosed that an external fund manager tied to the protocol suffered a loss of about $93 million.
According to Stream’s disclosure, the move came as the team sought time to investigate the damage and to stabilize core functions.
Operations Suspended After Major LossReports have disclosed that user deposits on the protocol were roughly $160 million, while total assets that had been put to work in various strategies exceeded $520 million.
The protocol’s stable token, xUSD, lost its close tie to $1 and traded near $0.51 at one point, a sharp loss of confidence that pushed some users to pull funds off the platform.
On-chain trackers show total value locked fell from about $204 million at the end of October to near $98 million after the news spread.
Yesterday, an external fund manager overseeing Stream funds disclosed the loss of approximately $93 million in Stream fund assets.
In response, Stream is in the process of engaging Keith Miller and Joseph Cutler of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP, to lead a comprehensive…
— Stream Finance (@StreamDefi) November 4, 2025
Stream Finance: Investigation And Legal StepsAccording to public notices, Stream retained Perkins Coie LLP to lead an independent review and legal work. Attorneys named include Keith Miller and Joseph Cutler, who will be involved in examining what happened and advising on next steps.
The firm’s involvement suggests that legal and forensic work will run alongside technical analysis. The exact cause of the loss has not been confirmed.
Reports list a range of possibilities — from failed trading positions managed off-chain to a bad investment decision by a third party — but no definitive root cause has been released.
Exposure And What It Could Mean For Other PlatformsSome observers warn that troubles at Stream could ripple outward because xUSD and assets tied to the protocol are used as collateral elsewhere in the DeFi ecosystem.
Liquidations or forced sales are a risk when a stable token loses its peg, and other platforms that accepted xUSD might now face sudden shortfalls.
Based on current on-chain signals, liquidations and re-pricing events are already visible in related markets.
It is too early to measure the full scope, however, and authorities or counterparties have not announced formal actions.
What To Watch NextThe investigation’s findings and any forthcoming audit from Stream or its legal team are expected to shed light on how the loss occurred.
Market observers are also keeping an eye on xUSD’s price, shifts in total value locked, and any response from protocols that use Stream’s assets as collateral.
Updates from Stream’s official channels and documents from Perkins Coie will likely provide the clearest picture of the next phase in the case.
For now, the freeze on deposits and withdrawals remains in effect as the inquiry continues.

After briefly sliding to $98K on Tuesday, Bitcoin is fighting to hold its ground above $100K.

Lummis Pushes ‘Biggest’ Crypto Law Ever Setting the Stage for the Next 1000x Crypto $PEPENODENovember 5, 2025 • 10:00 UTC
Senator Cynthia Lummis is calling her Clarity Act the biggest crypto law in U.S. history. She’s on a mission to ditch the regulatory chaos and give crypto a clear, official rulebook.
Lummis is in a total sprint, trying to rope in bipartisan support to get this bill through the Banking Committee before the year ends. Why?
The bill essentially tells the SEC and CFTC exactly who regulates what, offering market structure and stability to major firms. It also helps out local community banks by legally allowing them to jump into the digital asset game with custody services, which lets them compete with the big crypto players.The hope is that the new clarity will open the floodgates for investment. In fact, many in the community are already looking ahead. While Washington focuses on regulation, the market is buzzing about projects like PEPENODE ($PEPENODE). It’s blending meme culture with a cool mine-to-earn gaming ecosystem.
PEPENODE ($PEPENODE) is exactly the early-stage, utility-focused innovation that could thrive if Lummis’s clarity finally arrives, potentially becoming one of the next 1000x crypto success stories.
See why our experts think $PEPENODE could reach $0.0023 by the end of 2025.
$10B Profit in 2025 Pushes Tether to Top, Sets Up $BEST As Next 1000x CryptoNovember 5, 2025 • 10:00 UTC
Tether’s Q3 attestation report is some impressive stuff. Among the highlights:
- $10B net profit in 2025 YTD
- $17B in new $USDT issued
- Tether holds $135B in US Treasuries, surpassing South Korea’s $132B to rank 17th among foreign countries.
It’s all part of an increasingly dominant picture for Tether and $USDT, which currently boasts a $183B market cap.
Stablecoins enjoy growing adoption as cross-border remittance systems and tools for banks to settle payments at any time, anywhere. And as stablecoin use grows, expect ordinary investors to follow suit.
But to use stablecoins smoothly, you need a crypto wallet. Best Wallet offers a fully non-custodial crypto wallet with MPC and biometric security. Use up to five individual wallets within the app, and access the best crypto presales before they launch.
The Best Wallet Token ($BEST) powers the Best Wallet ecosystem – and with Tether’s $USDT pushing crypto adoption, $BEST could be the next 1000x crypto.
Learn what $BEST is and how it works with our review.

Bitcoin Sentiment Turns To Extreme Fear: Contrarian Signal Brewing?
Data shows the Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index has dropped into the extreme fear territory following the latest crash in the cryptocurrency market.
Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index Now Pointing At ‘Extreme Fear’The “Fear & Greed Index” refers to an indicator created by Alternative that tells us about the sentiment that’s present among the average trader in the Bitcoin and wider cryptocurrency markets.
The index uses the data of the following five factors to determine the investor mentality: trading volume, market cap dominance, social media sentiment, volatility, and Google Trends.
To represent the sentiment, it utilizes a numeric scale running from zero to hundred. All values above 53 signal a net sentiment of greed, while those under 47 imply fear in the market. The indicator being between the two cutoffs naturally indicates a neutral mentality.
Besides these three main sentiment zones, there are also two special regions called the extreme fear and extreme greed. The former occurs below 25 and latter above 75.
Historically, the extreme sentiments have held much importance for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as they are where major tops and bottoms have tended to form. The relationship between sentiment and price has been an inverse one, however, meaning extreme fear facilitates bottoms, while extreme greed results in tops.
Followers of a trading technique called “contrarian investing” exploit this fact to time their moves. Warren Buffet’s famous quote sums up the idea, “Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.”
After the latest crash in Bitcoin and altcoins, sentiment among investors has worsened into the extreme fear zone, as the Fear & Greed Index shows.
As is visible above, the Fear & Greed Index is down to 21 on Tuesday, a sharp change compared to Monday’s value of 42, nearly in the neutral zone. The current extreme fear sentiment is the strongest since April. Interestingly, that low in April coincided with a bottom in the Bitcoin price.
The reverse side of the pattern played out in early October, when Bitcoin formed its top above $126,000 alongside a Fear & Greed Index value of 74, right at the boundary of extreme greed.
With the trader sentiment now back inside the extreme fear zone, it only remains to be seen whether a bottom will follow for the market. In the past, the index has often stayed inside the region for an extended period before a turnaround, so it could be a while for BTC this time as well.
BTC PriceAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $100,400, down more than 11% over the last week.
$3 Billion In Crypto Cybercrime Leads To Stricter US Sanctions On North Korea
The United States has intensified its efforts to disrupt North Korea’s clandestine financial networks by imposing new sanctions on individuals and institutions accused of facilitating the laundering of crypto linked to cyberattacks.
Crypto To Support Nuclear Initiatives?On Tuesday, the US Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced the designation of eight individuals and two entities involved in processing funds derived from cybercrime and fraudulent activities related to IT workers.
According to OFAC, these North Korean banks played a crucial role in managing funds, including approximately $5.3 million (around 7.63 billion Korean won) in crypto, through the “First Credit Bank.”
Some of these funds have been reportedly utilized in activities targeting US citizens and may be connected to North Korean ransomware actors who have profited from the labor of North Korean IT workers.
In addition to the individuals, the sanctions also extend to the Chosun Mangyongdae Computer Technology Company (KMCTC), an IT firm based in North Korea that dispatches teams of IT workers to cities like Shenyang and Dandong in China.
The US Treasury has highlighted the scale of North Korean cyber operations, stating that these actors engage in espionage, “destructive cyberattacks,” and financial theft unmatched by any other nation.
John Hauli, the Treasury’s Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, remarked that hackers supported by the North Korean regime steal and launder funds to finance their nuclear weapons initiatives. He emphasized that these actions pose a direct threat to both US and global security.
North Korean IT OperationsBlockchain intelligence company TRM Labs has reported that addresses associated with Cheil Bank exhibit consistent inbound flows resembling salary payments. With OFAC updating the designation of the Korea Computer Center these financial flows likely represent income from IT workers employed under false pretenses.
Between June 2023 and May 2025, wallets controlled by Cheil received over $12.7 million, indicating prolonged activity over two years.
Many of these addresses have also been mentioned in reports from the Multilateral Sanctions Monitoring Team (MSMT), a US-led coalition that has replaced the United Nation (UN) Panel of Experts on North Korea following its dissolution due to a Russian veto.
The MSMT has traced how Cheil Bank and other DPRK-affiliated entities facilitate payroll, payments, and laundering mechanisms across North Korea’s broader sanctions-evasion network.
Over the past three years, it is estimated that North Korea has siphoned off more than $3 billion (approximately 4.32 trillion Korean won), primarily through crypto, often employing sophisticated tools such as advanced malware.
In 2025 alone, hackers allegedly took $2.7 billion, significantly driven by the record-setting $1.5 billion hack of crypto exchange Bybit in February.
The funds acquired through these operations are laundered through various intermediaries—including OTC brokers and FX dealers—before being converted to fiat and funneled back into DPRK-controlled accounts.
The newly designated individuals and entities are seen as critical nodes in Pyongyang’s financial network, responsible for moving millions of dollars annually in breach of UN Security Council resolutions to bolster its nuclear and missile programs.

Lummis Says ‘Clarity Act’ Is Biggest US Crypto Bill, 23 Days to $BEST Presale Close
Quick Facts:
- US lawmakers push the Clarity Act that Lummis calls the biggest crypto bill ever and a full legal system for digital assets and stablecoins.
- Regulatory clarity could funnel new users to secure, mobile wallets with simple onramps, favoring stacks like Best Wallet with Fireblocks MPC security.
- $BEST presale shows 23 days left, about $16.83M raised, a price at $0.025895, and an estimated 78% dynamic staking APY for early stakers.
- $BEST utility includes reduced fees, curated early presale access, and future features like a fiat card, rewards hub, and staking aggregator per the project roadmap.
Sen. Cynthia Lummis says the ‘Clarity Act’ could create the first full legal system for crypto and stablecoins in the US.
She calls it the largest crypto bill ever and is trying to secure Democratic votes before year end. The push includes meetings between senators and industry leaders in Washington to avoid further delays.
If passed, the framework could end years of regulatory uncertainty that slowed wallet innovation and limited mainstream adoption.Retail users have a lot of gain from this because clear crypto structures and disclosures are necessary for more compliant onramps and better consumer protections.
The SEC and CFTC would be the supervisors under this act, which brings much-needed authority and knowledge in an industry plagued by uncertainty.
Per Lummis, the bill’s goal is to create a unified legal structure rather than piecemeal enforcement. And CEOs from big crypto companies are in support of the move, setting up meetings with lawmakers in recent days.
More importantly, this industry clarity narrative links directly to wallet infrastructure. That’s because most wallets today are either tied to centralized companies or lack mobile ease of use.
But one non-custodial solution might just escape that pattern – Best Wallet. It bridges that gap with a non custodial, multi chain app, plus extra benefits that typical wallets skip. Those include access to some of the best crypto presales and lower trading fees for token holders.
More importantly, Best Wallet can ride the US crypto bill momentum.
Through its official token, Best Wallet Token ($BEST), traders will access a continuously-developing DeFi ecosystem with MPC security, support for six major chains, a curated presales hub, and much more.
Let’s see why $BEST may be one of the safest crypto to buy, given the current context.
Best Wallet Token ($BEST) – Key to the Wallet and DeFi Ecosystem of the FutureBest Wallet Token ($BEST) powers a mobile first, non custodial wallet that supports thousands of assets and cross chain swaps. Inside the app, users can buy, hold, and swap, and there’s an in-built fiat onramp for easy accessibility.
An upcoming Best Card aims to turn balances into everyday spend with cashback. All thbese features are accessible from one interface, which matters if new US rules bring more first time users into crypto.
Best Wallet itself is one of the first wallets to integrate Fireblocks MPC CMP for key management, which enables custom multi wallet portfolios and a simplified ease of use.
The team also offers in-app swaps on 6 major chains plus a mobile integration with Pancake Swap, which reduces the need to hop apps. For users, fewer hops mean fewer approvals and fewer chances to sign malicious transactions.
And $BEST is the centerpiece of this wallet ecosystem.
Holding $BEST unlocks reduced fees in the ecosystem and early access to curated presales via the in app ‘Upcoming Tokens’ portal. This removes third party risk by routing purchases through the wallet itself.
If the Clarity Act advances and exchange listings tighten, the ability to access new tokens from a vetted wallet interface becomes a real differentiator.$BEST itself is an Ethereum token, with a smart contract audited by Coinsult for extra security assurances. The roadmap includes a staking aggregator, browser extension, rewards hub, and gas token free transactions. These will be very useful for day traders, in particular.
And the project aims to capture 40% of the wallet market by 2026, which is aggressive but aligns with where the industry is currently heading toward.
The presale only has 23 days left, having raised over $16.8M with a current token price of $0.025895. Estimated staking rewards display at 78% p.a. and are dynamic, which means they’ll go down as more people stake.
Here’s how to buy Best Wallet Token now.
As for future potential, $BEST is looking at a potential $0.62 price by the end of 2026, which is an increase of 2,300% from the current price. You can read our $BEST price prediction for more information on that.
Overall, users looking to capitalize on the US’ crypto push and bullish momentum should look toward Best Wallet Token. It’s one of the projects perfectly positioned for the current regulatory trend, and whales are already rushing to the presale.
Two months ago, one whale bought over $70K, and only a week ago, someone else bought $33K worth of $BEST. The presale is becoming red-hot right now.Join the official $BEST presale before the next price increase.

U-Turn By FTX: Withdraws Proposal Potentially Impacting Customer Claims Worldwide
The bankruptcy estate of the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX has decided to withdraw its motion aimed at limiting creditor distributions to certain “potentially restricted foreign jurisdictions.” This decision follows substantial pushback from creditors and a wave of objections filed in bankruptcy court.
FTX Trust Abandons Controversial PlanThe FTX Recovery Trust, which filed a notice on Monday, had previously sought court approval to freeze payouts to creditors in 49 countries, including China, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Ukraine, citing ambiguous or restrictive local regulations surrounding cryptocurrency.
The trust’s motion, filed in early July, aimed to implement procedures that could have significantly affected the rights of creditors in these regions. However, numerous objections—over 70—were submitted shortly after the motion was made public, prompting the estate to reconsider its approach.
Weiwei Ji, a creditor, emphasized that while the withdrawal represents a victory for affected creditors, it is crucial to remain vigilant until compensation is fully received. He warned that the implications of the motion extended beyond FTX creditors and could potentially undermine trust in the global cryptocurrency ecosystem.
In related developments, the FTX estate’s planned repayment strategy has raised concerns about the actual value of distributions. Creditor representative Sunil Kavuri cautioned that creditors might receive far less than anticipated, particularly since repayments are being issued in fiat currency rather than cryptocurrencies.
He pointed out that while the estate has outlined a 143% repayment plan in fiat terms, this does not adequately reflect the losses incurred when measured in cryptocurrencies.
Meanwhile, amidst the backdrop of FTX’s legal struggles, co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried is seeking to overturn his fraud conviction and 25-year prison sentence.
Sam Bankman-Fried Seeks To Overturn ConvictionBankman-Fried’s legal team argues that he was wrongfully convicted due to a rush to judgment influenced by the media, prosecutors, and notably, US District Judge Lewis Kaplan. In a brief submitted to the 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals, Bankman-Fried’s lawyers contended that he was presumed guilty even before formal charges were filed.
The appeal is being presented by Alexandra Shapiro, a criminal appeals lawyer known for her successes in similar cases. She is set to argue against the conduct of Judge Kaplan, who has been accused of bias against Bankman-Fried throughout the trial.
The defense claims that Kaplan pressured jurors for a swift verdict by offering amenities and suggesting they could extend their deliberation hours. Moreover, they assert that the judge “ridiculed” Bankman-Fried’s testimony and undermined his defense.
Bankman-Fried’s legal team is also challenging Kaplan’s decision to prevent him from informing the jury that FTX had sufficient assets to repay its customers, while the prosecution was allowed to assert that he had stolen billions, leading to the company’s downfall.
Amidst these legal battles, there are reports that Bankman-Fried’s parents are exploring options for securing a presidential pardon, potentially from former President Donald Trump. Bankman-Fried’s team maintains that he did not intend to defraud customers, believing they would ultimately be repaid.

SBF Seeks New Trial: Lawyers Argue FTX’s Founder Was ‘Blocked’ From Fair Defense
Ahead of his Tuesday appeal hearing, Sam Bankman-Fried’s lawyers have claimed that the FTX co-founder was unfairly convicted and was not allowed to tell his full story during his 2023 trial.
FTX Founder Claims Unfair TrialOn Tuesday, the legal team of FTX’s co-founder and former CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), is set to appeal his fraud conviction and 25-year sentence in a hearing at the 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals in New York.
According to a Bloomberg report, SBF’s lawyers have claimed in a previously filed brief that the crypto-exchange founder was wrongly convicted and was never given a fair chance to present his defense due to pressure from the media and prosecutors. “Sam Bankman-Fried was never presumed innocent,” his lawyers reportedly argued in the brief. “He was presumed guilty — before he was even charged.”
In November 2023, Bankman-Fried was found guilty of seven criminal counts, including fraud and conspiracy. He was later sentenced to 25 years in prison and ordered to pay back $11 billion to FTX customers.
His legal team, led by Alexandra Shapiro, is allegedly focusing on New York Judge Lewis Kaplan, whom they have accused of “repeatedly putting a thumb on the scale to help the government and thwart the defense.”
The former crypto executive’s lawyers argued in the appeal brief that the judge had “pressed jurors into a quick verdict,” and “continually ridiculed Bankman-Fried, criticized his demeanor, and signaled his disbelief of Bankman-Fried’s testimony.”
They highlighted an instance when Judge Kaplan allegedly called SBF’s testimony that he did not run FTX’s sister hedge fund, Alameda Research, after stepping down as CEO, “a joke.”
As a result, Shapiro is expected to argue that the New York judge “wrongly blocked Bankman-Fried from telling the jury that FTX had enough assets to repay exchange customers.” Meanwhile, prosecutors were allowed to claim SBF had stolen billions of dollars from customers, which “forced” FTX into bankruptcy.
Since the trial, the disgraced crypto exchange’s co-founder has maintained that the company was never insolvent. As reported by Bitcoinist, Bankman-Fried recently shared a document arguing that “the crisis FTX faced in November 2022 was a liquidity crisis, i.e., a sudden shortage of cash,” affirming that the company “was never bankrupt.”
His team is also expected to claim that Bankman-Fried didn’t intend to defraud customers, that prosecutors were given an unfair advantage, and that Judge Kaplan should have allowed him to testify that he had followed FTX lawyers “in good faith.”
New Trial Or Presidential Pardon?Bankman-Fried’s appeal has requested a new trial with a different judge. Nonetheless, the former CEO has also been seeking a pardon from US President Donald Trump as part of his attempts for an early release.
After January’s pardon of Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, SBF’s parents have reportedly been exploring paths to secure a presidential pardon for their son. In a February interview, he slammed the Biden Administration, arguing that his conviction was part of the previous government’s crackdown on the industry. He also shared his hope that President Trump would grant him a pardon.
Notably, on October 23, the White House announced that Trump had pardoned Binance co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, two years after pleading guilty. The White House’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, affirmed that the US President had “exercised his constitutional authority by issuing a pardon for Mr. Zhao, who was prosecuted by the Biden Administration in their war on cryptocurrency.”
Since then, speculation about a potential pardon to Bankman-Fried has increased, with the odds on betting markets such as Polymarket spiking to 15% after Zhao’s pardon. However, many industry players believe that the real chances of a pardon are low.
Lawyer and CLO at Variant, Jake Chervinsky, previously affirmed that he would be “truly shocked if SBF gets a pardon,” as SBF and CZ are “not comparable at all.” Chervinsky noted that “SBF was a Democratic mega-donor before FTX collapsed and he went to prison bankrupt. His name is half punch line half curse word in DC. Not a single serious person wants this.”
