Zcash jumps 48% to over $800 as Grayscale spot ETF push adds to ‘next bitcoin’ buzz
ZEC traded above its January 2018 peak as futures volume hit billions of dollars and a Grayscale filing showed fresh progress toward converting its Zcash Trust into a spot ET
Protecting the ego often feels like self-preservation, but it frequently destroys human connections. Driven by pride and the fear of vulnerability, individuals prioritize being "right" over being understanding. Admitting a mistake or offering an apology feels like a personal defeat, prompting people to build defensive walls rather than bridges.
This drive stems from tying self-worth to external validation and invulnerability. When conflict arises, the immediate instinct is to defend status, control, and image, mistaking compromise for weakness. Consequently, temporary personal pride is protected at the cost of long-term trust and emotional intimacy.
Ultimately, defending the ego offers a fleeting victory, but it leaves relationships fractured. True connection requires sacrificing pride to preserve the bonds that truly matter.
Bitcoin jumps above $81k as short squeeze offsets rate and regulatory pressure
itcoin climbed as high as $81,702 on Sept. 18 after trading near $76,400 a day earlier, marking its first move above $80,000 since Sept. 7. The world’s leading crypto was trading at $81,309.4 as of 22:50 ET (02:50 GMT) and was up 5.62% for the day.
The rebound followed a difficult week for risk assets. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points, and the Bank of Japan followed with a quarter-point increase to 1.25%, its highest policy rate in 31 years.
Cryptocurrency prices show broad gains with Bitcoin above $80,000 and notable rises in altcoins like NEAR and ARB.
Cryptocurrency markets are experiencing significant gains, with Bitcoin surpassing $80,000, up 5.66%. Several altcoins also posted strong increases, including NEAR up 24.08%, ARB up 23.52%, and UNI rising 16.18%. These gains reflect renewed investor interest and positive momentum in the crypto sector. Market watchers will be monitoring if this upward trend continues amid broader economic factors and regulatory developments.
Following the buzz around Bitcoin's potential to reach $1 million, the cryptocurrency is currently trading on Pluang at Rp1.435.250.000 as of Sep 19, 2026 01:51 WIB, showing a 1-day increase of 5.52%. The platform records a strong market cap of Rp28.836,79 trillion and a 24-hour trading volume of Rp650,97 trillion. Investor activity on Pluang leans towards buying, with 64% of orders as buys and a typical holding period of 110 days.
$515M liquidated from cryptocurrency market in 24 hours
More than half a billion dollars in crypto positions were forcibly closed in a single day, a stark reminder that leverage in digital asset markets is a double-edged sword that mostly cuts one way.
The $515 million wipeout follows a pattern that has become grimly familiar in 2026. Liquidation totals this year have swung between $386 million and $674 million depending on the severity of the volatility, and this latest event lands comfortably in the middle of that range.
Forced liquidations occur when a trader's margin, the collateral backing a leveraged position, falls below the maintenance threshold required by an exchange. When that happens, the platform automatically closes the position at prevailing market prices.
The damage was concentrated in Bitcoin and Ethereum futures. In a comparable liquidation event on September 16, $571 million in long positions were wiped out after the Clarity Act failed to advance in the US Senate. BTC and ETH each absorbed roughly $190 million in liquidations during that episode.
Bitcoin Rides Out Triple Threat of Rate Hikes and CLARITY Defeat to End Week Higher
Bitcoin ended the week higher despite absorbing three consecutive shocks: the Senate's rejection of the CLARITY Act, the Federal Reserve's first rate hike since 2023, and a Bank of Japan increase to a 31-year high of 1.25%. The cryptocurrency briefly dipped to $75,000 before recovering above $77,000 and touching $81,000 intraday. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs returned to $159.5 million in net inflows on September 17, led by BlackRock's IBIT with $183.7 million, after two days of heavy outflows. Analysts attributed the resilience to traders having priced in the Fed move and treating the CLARITY defeat as a delay rather than a terminal setback. Regulatory progress continued through SEC and CFTC actions independent of Congress. Key support sits at $75,000, with $80,000 the next major resistance level.
Ethereum Researchers Add EIP-8365 to Repository, Foundation Moves $2.45M ETH
Ethereum news broke on September 17 as researchers added EIP-8365 to the Ethereum EIPs repository, targeting the retirement of old 0x00 withdrawal credentials. The Ethereum Foundation moved $2.45 million in ETH to an unlabelled Gnosis Safe, with the reason for the transfer unknown. ETH news also includes a whale rotating $45.83 million from BTC into ETH.
