Odaily News, Bitfinex's latest report indicates that Bitcoin's recent rise to multi-month highs has been driven mainly by spot demand and short covering, rather than new leverage. Data shows that during this rally, BTC's price increased approximately 10% to 11%, while open interest only rose by about 4%, suggesting that leverage is not the primary driver, and the sustainability of this trend may therefore be stronger than a typical short squeeze.

Bitfinex noted that over the past five months, BTC buyers' main cost range has been concentrated between $68,000 and $69,000. As long as the price remains above this range, most recent buyers remain in profit. Meanwhile, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $606 million on August 20, the highest single-day total since May.

However, it warned that a large amount of BTC currently in profit is being transferred to exchanges. If this translates into actual selling pressure, it could trigger the largest profit-taking wave so far in 2026. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily News: Jiang Zhuoer, founder of莱比特矿池 (Lubit Mining Pool), stated in a post that his previous bearish market judgment was wrong. He now has 90% confidence that the bear market has ended and believes that ETH will be the main driving force this cycle, potentially outperforming BTC.

Regarding trading operations, Jiang Zhuoer said that the ETH sold earlier between $1,738 and $1,931 has been bought back at a stop-loss price of $2,100. He also sold 50% of his spot position when ETH rose to $2,525 in an attempt to catch the top, with a stop-loss set at $2,550.

For capital that has yet to enter the market, Jiang Zhuoer plans to buy in fully if BTC pulls back to the $67,000-$72,000 range. Otherwise, he will buy at the current price by the end of October at the latest. He believes that compared to predicting market movements, what matters more in trading is execution and risk control—"Hold when you're right, cut losses when you're wrong."

Odaily News: SAND is suspected of experiencing an infinite minting security vulnerability. The attacker has obtained relevant permissions and can arbitrarily mint SAND tokens. At present, the specific scale of impact and the cause of the attack are still unclear.

Odaily News - Recently, Besu published four security advisories disclosing five vulnerabilities discovered by CertiK and their remediation status. All related vulnerabilities have been fixed in Besu version 26.7.1, released on July 27, with technical details officially disclosed on August 14.

The vulnerabilities involve block announcement processing, caching of future block height consensus proposals, WebSocket subscription limits, and unbounded JSON-RPC filter creation. Under specific configurations, attackers could exploit these issues to continuously consume node memory or thread resources, impacting node availability or consensus processing.

These vulnerabilities were identified during CertiK's self-initiated Chain Scan adversarial research, conducted on a private multi-node Besu test network without client commission or commercial involvement. CertiK subsequently submitted all vulnerabilities along with a reproducible proof-of-concept testing framework to Besu, maintaining confidential coordination with them until the patched version was released. Besu expressed gratitude to CertiK and EF Security for their responsible disclosure in the release notes.

Odaily Planet Daily News Grayscale’s Head of Research, Zach Pandl, said in an analysis on August 19 that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) proposed Regulation Crypto Assets rule could increase on-chain token issuance, making ETH, SOL, and BNB potential beneficiary assets.

The SEC proposal sets out two categories of issuance exemptions: eligible issuers could raise up to $5 million within 4 years, or up to $75 million within any 12-month period; the latter would carry higher disclosure and reporting obligations.

The proposal also includes a conditional safe harbor, where eligible crypto assets may no longer be considered investment contracts. Grayscale believes that if issuance activity increases, more U.S. issuers and investors will come on-chain, and value could flow back to the relevant blockchains and their native tokens.
