Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

High betas, low correlations: miners break from Bitcoin patterns

High betas, low correlations: miners break from Bitcoin patterns

The post High betas, low correlations: miners break from Bitcoin patterns appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Despite its weekend downturn, Bitcoin is up over 22% year-to-date, but public mining companies listed on NASDAQ have struggled to keep pace. The equal-weighted basket of mining stocks has gained just over 12% between Jan. 1 and Aug. 18. However, that underperformance masks a reversal in the past two months, when miners surged more than 46% against Bitcoin’s 11% rise, flipping the performance spread into positive territory on shorter time frames. The divergence shows the structural risks in listed mining equities and the concentrated bursts of upside that appear when conditions align. Understanding where miners trail and where they overshoot is important for assessing their role as a proxy for Bitcoin exposure. Throughout the year, dispersion inside the group has been extreme. IREN and WULF have led the pack with year-to-date gains of 101% and 81.5%, respectively. At the same time, BTDR has shed 36%, HIVE 23.8%, and BITF nearly 16%. MARA, traditionally one of the most liquid names, is down almost 7%. Such a vast difference in performance shows how much miner returns depend on balance sheet management, funding events, and operational specifics, rather than just Bitcoin’s performance. Shorter-term windows show a very different picture. Over the 10 days ending August 18, the miners’ basket gained 17.3% while Bitcoin slipped 0.5%. The rally was broad, with WULF soaring 97%, HUT 22.8%, CIFR 29.2%, and BITF 9.3%. During this stretch, BTC’s flat price action illustrates how miners can outperform in bursts even when the underlying asset stalls. The 30-day data confirm the effect: miners rose 4.8% while BTC fell 1.6%, again creating a positive spread of more than six percentage points. Graph showing the YTD performance for NASDAQ-listed Bitcoin miners (Source: TradingView) These bursts are not uniform in size. WULF and IREN dominate recent gains, while MARA and CLSK lag,…

The post 3 Crypto Stocks To Watch as Bitcoin and Altcoins Risk More Downturn This Week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Investors are monitoring key price levels while market updates and industry commentary shape expectations for the week. Strategy Inc. and Circle Fall as Market Turns Lower Microstrategy and Circle Internet Group both lost ground in the early trading session today, as the wider crypto market came under pressure.

It is worth noting that the declines followed the release of the U.S. Producer Price Index data that came in higher than expected. The index rose 0.9% against a forecast of 0.2%. This pushed back investor expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut. The probability of a cut dropped from 98% to 84%, making investors more cautious toward risk assets. Generally, the crypto market had bearish price swings with Bitcoin price trading near $115,500. Ethereum price slipping below $4,300 mark.

Bitcoin’s Futures market turns bearish: Will BTC drop to $112K?

Bitcoin’s Futures market turns bearish: Will BTC drop to $112K?

The post Bitcoin’s Futures market turns bearish: Will BTC drop to $112K? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways Bitcoin’s Futures market sentiment index drops to 36% entering the bearish territory. Retail bearishness dominates Futures and spot market as a drop to $112k looms. Since hitting $124k, Bitcoin [BTC] has declined for five consecutive days, hitting a local low of $114,442. In fact, at press time, Bitcoin was trading at $115,055, marking a 3.24% drop over the past week.  Amid this sharp drop, Futures are slowly turning bearish, and that might not be a good thing for BTC. Here’s the reason why. Bitcoin Futures look bearish According to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler, Bitcoin’s Sentiment Index on the Futures market has declined to 36%. With this drop, the index now sits significantly below the neutral zone or bearish territory.  Source: CryptoQuant Typically, a drop of this index drops below 45 suggests that most traders are becoming more risk-averse and are expecting lower prices. Thus, Futures are experiencing fear-driven activity that could fuel further downside.  Historically, Futures sentiment has played a significant role in Bitcoin’s price movement. For instance, on the 11th to the 14th of August, when the Sentiment Index jumped to 70%, Bitcoin’s price surged to $123k.  Therefore, the recent drop implies that bounces will be offloaded, resulting in price fluctuations. Under these circumstances, Adler suggests that Bitcoin will face downward risk, even dropping to $112k.  Retailers are driving bearishness  AMBCrypto’s look at the Futures market showed that retail traders dominated and look extremely bearish.  For starters, Futures Average Order Size data from CryptoQuant showed massive retail orders.  Source: CryptoQuant These small-scale participants are mainly shorting the market. According to Coinglass, Bitcoin’s Long Short Ratio declined to 0.8765, with shorts accounting for 53%.  Source: CoinGlass At the same time, long positions accounted for 46.7% of the total Futures contracts. Often, when shorts dominate, it indicates that most participants…
