Spot Bitcoin ETFs just pulled in nearly one billion dollars in a single week. And the more telling number isn't the total.
Ethereum ETFs added two hundred and eighteen million dollars in weekly inflows and had strung together twelve consecutive days of positive flows before a Wednesday outflow broke the streak. One session doesn't undo a trend, but it's worth watching whether that was a pause or a shift.
Outside the institutional ETF story, Hyperliquid's native token HYPE reached an all-time high of eighty-nine dollars and sixty-six cents, with a sixty point seven percent gain over thirty days. Daily trading volume hit six hundred and twenty-nine million dollars.
On the regulatory side, Australia's AUSTRAC disclosed enforcement actions against forty-five crypto and remittance businesses over the past twelve months. The cited reasons include compliance failures, insolvency, and illicit finance risks.
The macro backdrop deserves a note. August jobs data came in above expectations, reigniting debate about whether the Fed holds rates or moves again.
