The Kalshi vs Polymarket KOL Wars have begun

Prediction markets Polymarket and Kalshi are competing to recruit as many crypto influencers as possible, paying them to display affiliate badges on X in a PR battle that has been dubbed the “Kalshi vs Polymarket KOL Wars.” Both firms are paying undisclosed sums to various accounts, with followers ranging from the hundreds to the hundreds of thousands, to promote their markets to their respective audiences on X and display the affiliate badge. Crypto streamer Gainzy announced he was joining Polymarket last month, while @katexbt joined Kalshi this week. Another member of the Kalshi team noted last month, “ Deploying more Kalshi badges — steady lads ,” while some users have begged for the chance to represent Kalshi.

Senator Lummis Confirms US Bitcoin Reserve Funding “Can Start Anytime”

Image
Pro-crypto US Senator Cynthia Lummis has confirmed that the process to acquire funds for the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) could “start anytime” as regulatory red tape delays the fund’s creation. In an X post , Lummis said that the regulative side of things is still a “slog.” She added, however, that “the acquisition of funds for an SBR can start anytime” thanks to crypto-friendly US President Donald Trump.  Trump Signed An Executive Order For The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Earlier This Year Trump signed an executive order to create the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve earlier this year.  Seven months have since passed and the concrete formulation of the SBR is yet to be confirmed. More specifically, there have not yet been any clear details regarding how exactly capital for the SBR will be raised. The official government fact sheet says that the SBR will initially be “capitalized with Bitcoin owned by the Department of Tre...

BlackRock was one again ahead of its rivals, recording $446 million worth of BTC inflows on Thursday, October 2, and another $791.55 million on Friday, October 3, according to data retrieved by Finbold from SoSoValue To put things into perspective, Fidelity, for example, saw only $69.58 million added on Friday, while Ark’s net assets rose by $35.48 million. Out of 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs, only five saw no changes at the week’s close, while the rest were in the green. However, the numbers become more staggering when we consider that BlackRock’s net additions were more than four times higher than those of its competitors combined ($193.5 million). Spot BTC ETFs.

Analysts Warn De-Dollarization May Send Gold Prices to Record Highs

Image
The relationship between de-dollarization and gold price has become increasingly clear as nations worldwide reduce their reliance on the US dollar. At the time of writing, gold has reached unprecedented levels, and the effect of de-dollarization is visible across global markets. On September 23, 2025, gold hit an all-time high of $3,788.33 per ounce, driven largely by rapid de-dollarization efforts and BRICS countries’ de-dollarization strategies. Right now, central banks have accumulated 244 metric tons of gold in the first quarter of 2025 alone—well above the five-year quarterly average—while the dollar’s share of global reserves has been pushed below 47% and gold’s portion has climbed toward 20%.

XRP Targets $5 With Ripple SEC & SWIFT Boost

Image
XRP secured a major regulatory breakthrough as the SEC approved custody services for digital assets, and Ripple’s partner Thunes connected its payment system to the SWIFT network, opening access to around 11,000 banks globally. Amazing news, right? It’s not that simple. XRP Gains Momentum With Ripple, SEC Approval, and SWIFT Integration Source: Watcher.Guru SEC Clears Path for XRP Custody Services On September 30, 2025, the Securities and Exchange Commission released a no-action letter permitting registered investment advisers (as well as broker-dealers holding XRP in custody).
