Uniswap has rolled out its Continuous Clearing Auctions (CCA) feature on Base, giving developers a new way to launch tokens fully on-chain with built-in price discovery and automatic liquidity setup.
The decentralised exchange confirmed the rollout on Jan. 22, with the CCA framework now available to builders using Uniswap v4 on the Base network.
The update expands Uniswap’s structured token launch tools to one of the busiest Ethereum layer-2 ecosystems, offering teams a single workflow for auctions, pricing, and liquidity.
With CCA now live for Base developers, projects can run token sales that settle gradually over time rather than relying on one-time listings or fixed-price launches that can trigger sharp price swings.
CCA allows teams to run fully on-chain token auctions where tokens are sold gradually instead of all at once.
The mechanism clears bids block by block, which helps prices form naturally before open trading begins.
Once the auction ends, liquidity is added automatically to a Uniswap v4 pool at the final cleared price.
This reduces the need for teams to manually create a pool after launch and aims to avoid common listing issues linked to sudden volatility at the start of trading.
Developers can also adjust auction settings to fit their launch requirements while keeping the entire process on-chain and transparent.
The model is designed to create a fairer starting point for new tokens by spreading distribution over time.
Rather than concentrating activity into a single launch moment, CCA introduces a phased selling process that can lower the impact of sniping, front-running, and bundled transactions.
By clearing bids over multiple blocks, the auction format supports more gradual price discovery.
This can help reduce sharp dislocations that often happen when tokens go live with limited liquidity or when early trading activity is dominated by automated strategies.
For teams, this approach bundles the early steps of a token launch into one on-chain flow, covering auction mechanics, pricing formation, and liquidity provisioning without requiring separate manual actions.
Uniswap’s deployment on Base is open to all developers building on the network. The feature does not require approvals or special access, meaning any team can integrate CCA into its token launch process.
This open availability may appeal to projects looking for alternatives to private sales or unstable fair-launch formats.
It also supports teams that want a more standardised on-chain approach to distributing tokens while setting up liquidity in a predictable way once the auction completes.
With CCA, teams can rely on the auction’s final cleared price to determine the pool setup, rather than selecting an initial listing price independently.
The Base rollout follows Uniswap’s broader expansion of v4 tools across multiple chains in recent months.
CCA was rolled out in late 2025 and has already been used by projects such as Aztec Network for early price discovery and liquidity setup.
Uniswap has also been integrating with partners such as Revolut for fiat access and Ledger for safe swaps via its trading API.
Separately, the protocol has gone live on networks including Monad and X Layer.
By bringing CCA to Base, Uniswap is extending structured launch infrastructure into a major Ethereum layer-2 environment, while continuing to expand its product suite and chain support across decentralised finance.

After Nasdaq moved to tighten rules on how public companies raise capital for cryptocurrency acquisitions, Strategy introduced four new preferred stock instruments: STRC, STRD, STRF, and STRK, all listed on Robinhood on Friday, October 3.
These derivatives products offer institutional investors indirect access to Bitcoin while allowing Strategy to generate new liquidity without traditional fundraising channels.

During Q3 2025, Strategy secured $5.09 billion in aggregate net proceeds from a combination of underwritten and at-the-market offerings. Notably, its STRC Initial Public Offering alone raised $2.47 billion, underscoring sustained institutional appetite for Bitcoin-tied financial products.
As of October 6, 2025, Strategy holds 640,031 BTC, valued at $80.03 billion, with an average purchase price of $73,983 per coin, representing a 69% unrealized gain, or approximately $32.7 billion in dollar terms.

The company also recorded a $1.12 billion deferred tax expense on $3.89 billion in unrealized Bitcoin gains during Q3. However, a new IRS and Treasury ruling issued on September 30 has given Bitcoin-holding corporations a significant advantage. Under the Interim CAMT Guidance, unrealized crypto gains can now be excluded from the 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT) calculation.
This regulatory clarity removes a major overhang on Strategy’s balance sheet, ensuring profits on its crypto holdings won’t inflate taxable income until realized. As a result, the firm has stated it no longer expects to be subject to CAMT due to unrealized Bitcoin gains.
With no new BTC purchases made during the week of September 29 to October 5, Strategy (MSTR) stock price rose 1.5% intraday, as Bitcoin price rally to $125,500 propelled its BTC holdings above $80 billion.
With Strategy Inc. reporting $3.9 billion in unrealized Bitcoin gains for Q3 and pushing BTC into a new price discovery phase, investors are rotating toward promising early-stage projects like Best Wallet (BEST), a next-generation multi-chain storage platform offering smart vaults, multi-sig integrations, and yield optimization tools tailored to both retail and institutional users.
Early entrants gain exclusive access to staking rewards, governance privileges, and early mainnet integrations ahead of the project’s public rollout.
Best Wallet Presale
At press time, the Best Wallet presale has surpassed $16.4 million raised. With less than 24 hours remaining before the next price tier, investors can still acquire tokens at $0.0257 via the official Best Wallet website.

XRP is now back trading above $3 and is holding well above the price level. This is on the back of days of consolidating around $2.8. Although price action in the past 24 hours has seen XRP trading back above $3, it is yet to confirm a close to solidify the zone. Against this backdrop, technical analysis of the XRP 4-hour candlestick timeframe chart shows a critical level that could determine whether XRP finally breaks free into price discovery.
Although the XRP price is currently inching slowly upwards, technical analysis shows it is yet to break above a technical resistance keeping it from price recovery. According to a technical analysis of the XRP 4-hour candlestick timeframe chart that was posted on the social media platform X by CoinsKid, XRP’s movement in August was capped by a resistance line at $3.3774. This resistance is represented with the white trendline in the price chart below.
The importance of this line goes beyond short-term price action. As it stands, this resistance barrier has effectively become the gatekeeper between XRP’s current price action and the possibility of a major breakout for price discovery into new all-time highs.
According to the analyst, clearing this line would mark the point at which XRP could enter price discovery, a stage where there are no previous highs to serve as reference points. Until that happens, XRP is expected to continue oscillating within its established range, with $2.7346 acting as the lower white support line on the chart.
Although XRP has managed to hold above notable price points around $2.8 during its most recent corrections, there’s always the possibility of a strong downside move. CoinsKid also noted that a final shakeout could take place before any bullish breakout occurs.
This shakeout could see the sellers gain temporary momentum and cause the XRP price to break below $2.8 and crash to lower price levels. In this case, the analyst pointed to the orange support trendline at $2.3375 as a possible level that XRP might retest in such a shakeout.
CoinsKid linked this possibility to September, earning the reputation of being rektember during bull cycles. However, this September might be different, considering the current dynamics of the crypto market.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.06, up by 1.8% in the past 24 hours. The analyst noted that XRP’s macro structure will be bullish as long as it holds above the green line at $1.9061. This long-term support has so far underpinned the rally that began in late June.
XRP is already up by about 10% from its September open, but it could possibly perform better in the later part of the month. The probability of a Fed rate cut in September is now above 97%, and this could play into a bullish run for XRP and many other large market-cap cryptocurrencies.

Over the weekend, the Ethereum price broke above $4,900 to mark a brand-new all-time high after a choppy four years. Naturally, this has resulted in heightened volatility strengthened by both buying and sell-offs, as investors tend to take profit during levels like this. The next step is for Ethereum to step into price discovery as it leads to higher highs in the coming months, with analysts already expecting it to cross the $10,000 level.
In an analysis, TheSignalyst points out how the Ethereum price has performed historically. This has usually started with the price spending years in a consolidation zone as it bleeds out. This often ends in a breakout that sees the altcoin break its previous all-time high.
This was the case back in the 2018 bear market, where the Ethereum price consolidated for around three years before reaching an end. It will eventually break the $1,400 all-time high of the previous bull cycle in 2021. What followed was an explosive rally that saw the ETH price rise over 250% from its previous all-time high to put in a new high of $4,800 before cooling off.
Taking this previous performance into account, it is possible that the Ethereum price could follow this same trend. This is due to the similar consolidation pattern before a break of the previous all-time high levels. The breakout of this extended range is inherently bullish and could suggest that history may not be repeating, but it could rhyme.
Taking into account the Ethereum price performance after breaking out of the extended range in 2021, it is possible that the altcoin will break $10,000 into the 5-digit range. A more than 250% increase from its all-time high, like the 2021 cycle, would mean that the price would rally to the $17,000-$18,000 range.
“ETH hitting new highs signals strong ecosystem demand and potential altcoin season, driven by Powell’s unexpectedly dovish speech fueling risk-on trades,” Bitget Research Analyst, Ryan Lee, said. “On-chain data shows whales selling BTC to buy ETH, boosting ETH’s momentum. This macro easing and capital rotation should drive both assets higher, with ETH likely outperforming due to its utility and ETF prospects.
Now, even taking a more conservative stance that the Ethereum price would only rise around 100% from its previous all-time high of $4,800 would put the price very close to $10,000. Either way, an explosion into another bull market suggests that Ethereum would likely see the 5-digit range this cycle.
TheSignalyst states that “Cycles may not repeat perfectly, but they often rhyme — and Ethereum’s structure suggests we could be on the verge of another explosive move.” Usually, the most important moves for Ethereum have happened in the month of November. Thus, the next three months could be very eventful for the altcoin.

Ethereum has been gaining ground in recent times, especially among institutional investors, as they believe that the leading altcoin is set to outperform Bitcoin. This is evidenced by the large buys that have dominated ETH as Ethereum treasury companies become a major player in the space. Amid this, billionaire and CEO of Galaxy Digital Investments, Mike Novogratz, has revealed the important level for Ethereum to beat to enter price discovery.
În an interview with SquawkBox, Novogratz points to the recent strength of Ethereum amid rapid accumulation as a reason for it being a better bet than Bitcoin. The major reason outlined for why ETH was a better bet than BTC at this point is the fact that Ethereum treasury companies are now becoming a staple, with two ETH treasury companies, such as SharpLink and GameSquare Holdings, among others, already established and more on the way.
As these companies continue to accumulate ETH, the billionaire explains that with not much supply, the Ethereum price is likely to rise. He also brings up the fact that Ethereum has a very powerful narrative, and the market reaching record short levels has also aided its bullishness.
Given these, Novogratz explained that the Ethereum price is at least destined to knock on the $4,000 level a few times. Also, once the altcoin is able to take out $4,000, then the billionaire believes that the ETH price will enter into price discovery, which could drive it higher.
As Ethereum continues to look like the better bet, he also believes that the altcoin could end up outperforming the Bitcoin price over the next 3-6 months. This gives a short timeframe, especially as Bitcoin has already hit multiple new all-time highs over the past year, and Ethereum is yet to beat its highs from 2021.
So far, in the month of July, the Ethereum price has greatly outperformed that of Bitcoin in terms of gains, lending credence to Novogratz’s expectations that the altcoin will outperform the pioneer cryptocurrency. According to data from CryptoRank, ETH is up more than 45% this month already compared to the less than 8% on record for Bitcoin.
Over the last 90 days, as well, the Ethereum price has doubled to put in more than 100% in gains. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s gains still sit just above 22% for the same time period. Nevertheless, Bitcoin continues to dominate the market, with BTC dominance sitting above 61% and holding altcoin season at bay.

This week, Bitcoin (BTC) has recovered from its recent drop below the $100,000 level and is attempting to turn the crucial $108,000 resistance into support for the fourth time. As we approach the second half of 2025, a market watcher has shared his forecast for BTC.
On Thursday, analyst Rekt Capital shared a roadmap for BTC for the rest of the year. He noted that this cycle has been “truly a cycle of re-accumulation ranges,” explaining that these have formed throughout the cycle since the end of 2022 and evolved since the Bitcoin Halving last year.
In the pre-having period, BTC registered brief price deviations with downside wicks below the re-accumulation range lows in the weekly chart. Meanwhile, the post-halving period has seen Bitcoin deviations occur with multi-week clusters of full-bodied candles below the range lows.
For instance, after its first price discovery uptrend, which lasted around seven weeks, BTC moved within its re-accumulation range for about ten weeks. Then, it transitioned into the first Price Discovery Correction, recording a nine-week downside deviation below the range lows before breaking out and rallying past the range highs toward a new ATH last month.
Its past performances suggested that BTC was ready to enter its second Price Discovery Uptrend. But as Rekt Capital detailed, a transitional period has occurred for the first time, with price consolidating around the re-accumulation range high area.
According to the analyst, this is “perhaps the first time that we’re seeing a deviation occur below the range high,” making this area a crucial level to transition into a new uptrend.
We never really had to pull back substantially, maybe, until that final corrective period, which would last multiple months, but each re-accumulation range would see quite a bit of upside, and that upside would be very quick and no real post-breakout retesting, no real pausing. What we’re seeing here is something very, very different.
Based on its new transition period, the key level for Bitcoin to reclaim in the weekly timeframe is the $104,400 support, which it held for nearly seven weeks before the recent pullbacks. This level was lost after BTC closed last week below it and “should not become a resistance level.”
To the analyst, it’s key that this week’s close solidifies the price recovery as it would position the cryptocurrency for a retest and confirmation of $104,400 as support and continue the build the base around this area to transition into the next multi-week Price Discovery Uptrend.
Rekt Capital added that the timeline for BTC’s next uptrend will depend on the length of the new transitional period. However, he believes that it will take “a bit longer” to break out.
Additionally, he suggested that what comes after the upcoming uptrend will also depend on how long it takes, as it could lead to an extended cycle or a prolongation of this phase, which could push the cycle peak into deeper stages of 2025.
Nonetheless, the analyst affirmed that it’s crucial that the next corrective period, which could see Bitcoin drop between 25% to 33%, is short to potentially enjoy a third Price Discovery Uptrend before the bear market.
As of this writing, BTC is trading at $107,555, a 3.2% increase in the weekly timeframe.

Key takeaways
HYPE, the native coin of the Hyperliquid ecosystem, has been one of the top performers in recent weeks. The coin, which launched seven months ago, has added over 1,000% to its value since then and is now the 11th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.
It surged by 48% over the last 30 days to reach an all-time high price of $45 yesterday. However, it has lost roughly 12% of its value since then and has dropped below the $40 support level, with the bears still in control.
With HYPE losing over 12% of its value in the last 24 hours, analysts are predicting further downward movement in the near term. The primary catalysts behind HYPE’s bearish performance are the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and potential profit-taking.
As stated above, HYPE reached an all-time high price of $45 on Monday, up 48% over the last 30 days. This has seen some investors take profit after an extended period of rally.
According to data obtained from CoinGlass, HYPE’s Open Interest (OI), which represents the number of active futures and options contracts yet to be settled or closed, has declined by nearly 8% to $1.91 billion over the past 24 hours.
A decrease in OI signals declining interest in HYPE and the lack of trader conviction in the price discovery phase.
In addition to the profit-taking, the ongoing crisis in the Middle East is affecting Bitcoin, Hyperliquid, and the broader cryptocurrency market. With the $40 support now broken, traders could be looking at the next major support level around $36.
With the broader cryptocurrency now bearish, HYPE has shifted bearish, at least in the short term. The sell signal from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator on the 4H chart shows that sellers are currently overpowering buyers in the market.
The blue line is set to cross below the red signal line, indicating a strong bearish momentum. Furthermore, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped from the overbought territory and is now heading into the 50 midline, signaling a firm bearish grip.
With the $40 support level now broken, the next key support is at around $36.00, with the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) set at $32.01 and the 100-day EMA at $27.41.

As Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to turn the $110,000 resistance into support, some analysts believe its price discovery rally has just started, forecasting new highs for the flagship crypto.
Last week, Bitcoin’s momentum propelled its price to its new all-time high (ATH) of $111,814 before retracing to its current range. Over the weekend, Bitcoin confirmed its breakout into its second Price Discovery Uptrend, following its successful retest of the $104,500 mark as support.
The cryptocurrency has been in a significant market recovery for over a month, rallying nearly 50% from April lows. Analyst Rekt Capital noted that BTC ended its downside deviation period and positioned itself for a retest of its key re-accumulation range during early May’s surge, which was successfully reclaimed and surpassed.
The analyst considers that its new Price Discovery Uptrend has “only just begun,” as Bitcoin starts Week 2 of this phase. Rekt Capital highlighted that this cycle has been “a story of Re-Accumulation Ranges,” which signals that a new range will likely form after this Price Discovery.
Meanwhile, history suggests a second Price Discovery Correction is ahead as Bitcoin transitions into its new Price Discovery Uptrend.
During its future correction, BTC will likely retrace between 25%-35% “to produce yet another Downside Deviation below the Re-Accumulation Range Low (future orange circle) before resuming upside into a likely Price Discovery Uptrend 3.”
In the meantime, “All Bitcoin needs to do is hold above the Re-accumulation Range High of $104,500” to continue its price discovery rally.
Notably, the flagship crypto has been retesting the range high as support over the past two weeks, confirming the breakout. As such, dipping into the previous $92,000-$104,500 range’s upper zone could happen as “part of normal volatility.”
Moreover, it turned another key resistance, the $102,500 mark, into support during this period, which it had previously been rejected from in January 2025. With these levels as support, Rekt Capital considers that only the December 2024 and January 2025 upwicks, at $108,353 and $109,588, stand in the way of additional Price Discovery.
Trader Daan Crypto Trades noted that Bitcoin is “still strong but fighting around its previous all-time high from earlier this year.” He pointed out that price action looks “very choppy” in the lower timeframes, but it shouldn’t be concerning for investors if the price remains within its current range.
Analyst MacroCRG affirmed that Bitcoin must officially reclaim the $110,000 level to continue its rally, as it marks the previous ATH and the Value Area High (VAH) from last week. “Acceptance above and we likely squeeze straight into price discovery again,” CRG stated.
Currently, Bitcoin is retesting its Weekly opening of $109,004 as support, which could set the stage for a breakout above the $110,000 mark if held. Meanwhile, rejection from this area could send BTC price to the $106,000-$108,000 area.
As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $109,181, a 1.4% increase in the daily timeframe.

Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a new all-time high (ATH) after a 4% daily breakout above the $109,000 mark. As the flagship crypto nears the next barrier, some analysts suggest that this cycle’s top isn’t in yet.
On Wednesday, Bitcoin hit a new ATH of $109,800 after breaking out of the $107,000 short-term resistance, eyeing the $110,000 barrier as its next target. The cryptocurrency has significantly recovered over the last seven weeks, surging around 47% from its five-month low of $74,000 toward its current levels.
Amid its May rally, BTC couldn’t break the crucial $106,000 resistance, trading between the $102,000-$105,000 range for nearly two weeks. However, its consolidation ended over the weekend as Bitcoin Weekly Closed above this barrier for the first time in history.
Since reclaiming this crucial level on Monday, Analyst Ali Martinez pointed out that the flagship crypto appeared to be forming an ascending triangle pattern in the lower timeframes, which suggested a rally toward the $115,000 level once the price broke above the $107,000 mark.
In the early hours of Wednesday, BTC’s bullish breakout saw it retest the $108,000 barrier, facing rejection toward the $106,000 support before bouncing and smashing this barrier and rallying toward its new ATH.
Rekt Capital affirmed that the Second Price Discovery Uptrend is ahead for the cryptocurrency, as its First Price Discovery Correction is finally over. The analyst previously highlighted that Bitcoin would rally to a new ATH after Weekly Closing above its re-accumulation range and post-breakout retest.
Analyst crypto Jelle suggested that BTC’s news target is around the $140,000 mark, pointing to a Power of Three (PO3) setup on Bitcoin’s chart. The pattern divides the price action into three phases: accumulation, manipulation, and distribution.
In the first phase, a consolidation near the recent high occurs after a strong price performance. This is followed by a token’s price falling below the accumulation phase’s support level in the second phase, trading within a range below the recently lost zone.
Lastly, the distribution phase consists of a strong price breakout, with momentum building and participants entering the market. Based on this setup, the flagship crypto started the accumulation phase during the Q4 2024 rally, entering the next phase during the March-April retraces.
Amid its late April-May rally, Bitcoin has arrived at the setup’s final phase, with the analyst forecasting $140,000 as the next target after breaking above the $108,500 mark.
Similarly, Sjuul from AltCryptoGems highlighted the same Po3 pattern on BTC’s chart, affirming that investors could expect a “strong expansion” toward the $125,000-$130,000 levels after breaking out of its previous ATH levels.
He previously pointed out that “BTC is clearly repeating the summer 2021 price action and trading in a perfectly bullish structure on high time frame,” which could suggest that the cycle’s top isn’t in yet.
As of this writing, Bitcoin trades 1.8% below its new ATH, at $107,502.
