Bitcoin dipped below $80,000 for the first time in roughly a month Thursday before rebounding later in the session. Adam Lynch (@CharlesSchwab) turns to what he's watching when it comes to price action in Bitcoin and Ethereum as they remain 25% and 35% lower year-over-year, respectively.

Gold has managed to push back above $4,100 an ounce, but the precious metal continues to face significant headwinds from persistent inflation fears, which are driving hawkish monetary policies around the world.

The third quarter of 2026 emphasized an increasingly divided macro regime for financial advisors and institutional allocators alike.

ETF issuers continue to push the boundaries of product innovation and unconventional strategies attract greater attention, as regulators consider the next wave of novel ETFs outlined in my previous research note.

Jenny Kovacs returns to Crypto Corner and sits down with Adam Lynch of @CharlesSchwab to talk about the latest moves in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Though Bitcoin and Ethereum have pulled back from their recent rallies, Adam says that ETF inflows show a "much more constructive" picture compared to this time last year.

This weekly update tracks some of the largest cryptocurrencies by market share: Bitcoin and Ether. While both are considered high-risk assets, they possess foundational differences that investors should understand.

Ethereum ETFs just logged nine straight sessions of outflows and shed nearly $2 billion in assets, but the real story behind those numbers tells a very different tale about where institutional confidence actually stands.

Bitcoin ETFs have seen significant inflows in recent weeks. That's happening in part because institutions engage in both the basis trade and the debasement trade.

The iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF remains the largest and most liquid spot Bitcoin ETF, with $69 billion in assets under management. I maintain a 'Strong Buy' rating on IBIT, supported by Bitcoin's price recovery and strong net inflows of $3.96 billion over the last twelve months. IBIT offers a straightforward vehicle for Bitcoin exposure, benefiting from Bitcoin's 59% market dominance and institutional adoption.

Digital asset fund flows across all issuers lost momentum this week, a marked slowdown after US$11.1B of inflows since mid-July. Much of that earlier demand appears to have reflected investors buying at depressed valuations, though concerns around US fiscal sustainability have become an increasingly important part of the allocation case.
