Nasdaq has asked US regulators to allow options trading on asset manager BlackRock’s spot Ethereum ETF (exchange-traded fund), a move that would help bring about the wider adoption of ETH ETFs. BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) is the only Ethereum ETF listed on Nasdaq’s electronic options exchange. Other ETH ETF managers listed their funds on the New York Stock Exchange’s Arca or Cboe. Options Trading Decision On BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF Likely In 2025 The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has not yet authorized options trading on spot Bitcoin ETFs since these investment products launched in January.

PlayDoge ($PLAY), now nearing $6 million in presale funds raised, shows that the current market downturn is just a minor blip in this year’s bull rally. This new meme coin continues to charm the crypto world, especially with the upcoming launch of its crypto-revamped version of the classic 90s game Tamagotchi. Once it’s live, the game lets you own a “Doge” in your wallet and interact with your virtual Shiba Inu pet on your mobile device. A well-known analyst predicts PlayDoge’s predecessor, Dogecoin ($DOGE), will hit $2 as the meme coin supercycle remains in play.  And PlayDoge is set to benefit from this trend, thanks to its expanded play-to-earn (P2E) utility, which gives it more to offer than the average meme coin. Thus, it has quickly become the new Shiba Inu on the block that everyone’s watching. The $PLAY token is being offered to early investors at its presale price of $0.00526, but it will increase to $0.00...

The First Neiro On Ethereum price surged 154% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.00002574 as of 4.20 a.m. EST on trading volume that surged 243% to $8.9 million. The pump came after Ethereum’s co-founder Vitalik Buterin sold a 17 billion chunk of a NEIRO coin that was airdropped by its developer, apparently to help boost its profile. That all came amid massive confusion in the community over the identity of the coin at issue after a huge number of NEIRO tokens launched since last week. The launches came after the owner of Kabosu, the late Shiba Inu canine who birthed the Dogecoin meme coin, announced the adoption of a new Shiba Inu dog called Neiro. A Coin Telegraph article on the development was refuted by NEIRO, leaving most in the community none the wiser as to what had happened. Severe lack of journalistic judgment from the @Cointelegraph article. 1) We did not "attempt to gain credibility on Aug. 4, after airdropping 4% of its supply to the Ethereum co-founder to clai...

By eliminating the need for traditional order books, AMMs provide a more efficient, decentralized, and user-friendly approach to liquidity provision.

Automated Market Makers are a type of decentralized exchange (DEX) protocol that relies on mathematical formulas to price assets.
