ETH ETFs post nine consecutive outflow days, Solana breaks a 14-week inflow streak. Spot ether funds logged their largest weekly net outflow since January, a notable reversal after months of relative resilience. Solana ETFs also turned negative last week, ending a run that had become a reliable talking point for L1 rotation bulls. Bitcoin ETFs were not immune, though cumulative inflows over the prior eight days had reached $3 billion before sentiment shifted. theblock cryptobriefing cryptobriefing

SUI up roughly 54% over four weeks, comfortably outrunning BTC and ETH. The move is being attributed to a combination of ecosystem momentum and thin float dynamics rather than any single catalyst. It fits a broader pattern where mid-cap L1s capture rotation capital when the majors stall, though altcoin liquidity risks flagged in today’s lead apply here directly. cryptobriefing

Robinhood Chain activity is in a sustained decline, with transactions down more than 40%. The slowdown has moved beyond the fee compression story that dominated earlier coverage, now dragging on raw transaction volume across the chain. Whether this reflects a natural post-launch cooling or something more structural in the user base is the open question operators are watching. coindesk

Uniswap v3 and v4 together handled 47.2% of $161 billion in stablecoin DEX volume. The figure underlines how concentrated onchain stablecoin flow remains around a single protocol despite years of competitive pressure from aggregators and newer AMMs. For market structure watchers, it also signals that stablecoin-denominated activity is large enough to constitute its own distinct liquidity regime. cryptobriefing

Filecoin’s six-year vesting schedule is nearly complete, cutting FIL issuance by around 75%. The end of the vesting cliff removes a persistent sell-pressure overhang that has weighed on FIL since its 2020 launch. How the market reprices the token post-cliff will be a useful data point for other projects still living inside long vesting tails. cryptobriefing

Pump.fun shifts caller rewards to a profit-sharing model tied to followers’ actual gains. Starting 10 October, callout rewards are no longer flat fees but are pegged to the downstream profits of a caller’s audience. The design is meant to align incentives, though it also creates new surface area for wash trading and coordination games that the platform will need to monitor. cryptobriefing

Tokenised commodities expand beyond gold into oil and lending instruments. A small but growing cluster of platforms is building out tokenised exposure to crude oil and commodity-backed lending, using the gold tokenisation playbook as a template. The institutional demand signal is real, but custody, legal enforceability, and oracle reliability across physical commodity classes remain unsolved at scale. coindesk

Papertrade faces oracle manipulation allegations as the platform’s loss-funded pool reaches $3 million. The DeFi trading platform, which funnels trader losses into a staking reward pool, has drawn scrutiny over whether its price oracles can be gamed to inflate payouts to stakers. Traders on the platform have collectively lost $18.6 million since launch while stakers collected $12.57 million in rewards, a ratio that is drawing attention from the security community.

Ledger is investigating tampered hardware wallets linked to tens of millions in crypto thefts. The probe centres on supply-chain interference, with modified devices apparently reaching end users and exfiltrating keys. Hardware wallet supply-chain integrity has always been a theoretical attack vector; this investigation suggests it has moved firmly into the practical column. cryptobriefing

Kalshi probing three suspiciously timed bets on Trump’s press secretary appointment. The wagers totalled around $173 but are set to pay out roughly $9,600 combined, placed ahead of any public announcement about the pick. The incident is a small-dollar but high-visibility test of prediction market surveillance capabilities at a politically sensitive moment. theblock

France proposes an exit tax on crypto holders with more than €800,000 in assets who move abroad. The measure would apply unrealised gains at the point of emigration, treating crypto holdings similarly to large equity stakes under existing wealth-mobility rules. If passed, it would be one of the more aggressive fiscal moves on crypto portability in Europe and could accelerate forum shopping among high-net-worth holders. cryptobriefing

US government crypto holdings are down $16 billion from their peak. The decline reflects a combination of asset-price moves and past disposal decisions, reigniting the policy debate about whether the strategic reserve approach has a coherent mandate or is simply passive custody. The gap between what the government holds now and what it could have held is becoming a talking point in appropriations discussions. cryptobriefing

• Bitcoin’s realised volatility has compressed since 2018 on a rolling-average basis, but the frequency of days with outsized moves has actually increased, a structural quirk worth keeping in your risk models. coindesk

Last sip. The Ledger supply-chain investigation has no timeline, no confirmed scope, and no named intermediary, which means the hardware you already own is either fine or it isn’t, and there is currently no reliable way to know.
