Bitwise has filed a Form S-1 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to launch the Bitwise Sui ETF, aiming to track the spot price of Sui, the native token of the Sui Network. The move comes after similar SUI ETF filings from Canary Capital and 21Shares, while the SEC has already approved a 2x leveraged SUI ETF and other crypto ETF products in 2025. Bitwise has also added SUI to its 10 Crypto Index ETF and continues to expand its crypto ETF lineup, including spot Bitcoin, Ether and XRP funds.

XRP Ledger operators are facing an amendment block event on Thursday, with 418 of 999 servers expected to be taken out of participation until they upgrade their software. According to community member Krippenreiter, these outdated rippled nodes will no longer validate ledgers, submit or process transactions, or join consensus, although trusted validators on the dUNL and overall network operations are expected to continue normally. The upgrade centers on rippled version 2.6.2 and includes the fixDirectoryLimit amendment and a critical bug fix, while XRP is down 1.5% over the last 24 hours.

Curve DAO’s CRV token recorded a 6.6% jump in Open Interest over the past 24 hours while its price slipped 2.63% and 9.9% over the week, signaling stronger bearish pressure. After losing the $0.49 level and the March support at $0.37, higher timeframe charts highlight a bearish structure with targets at $0.329, $0.298, and $0.243 unless a move above $0.38 invalidates short setups.

Synthetix is returning its perpetuals protocol to Ethereum's mainnet after three years. Founder Kain Warwick said on Wednesday the network can now support high-frequency trading, citing sharply lower gas costs, with average fees about 0.71 gwei versus 18.85 gwei a year earlier. He expects other perp DEXs to follow.

Anthropic's Claude AI outlines two-track scenarios for XRP, Solana and Ethereum through late December 2025, flagging elevated volatility over the next two weeks. In the bullish case, the model points to XRP at $4.50, SOL near $500 and ETH up to $6,500, while downside or softer outcomes include XRP around $1.80, SOL near $180 and ETH near $2,400.

Solana’s SOL token has dropped 32% since November, while the wider altcoin market fell 21%, as network fees and DApp revenues declined alongside slowing onchain activity. Despite $636 million in U.S. Solana ETF assets, 20.35 million SOL on corporate balance sheets and roughly 68% of supply staked, growth has shifted to Base, Arbitrum, Polygon and BNB Chain, limiting SOL’s near-term upside. Analysts highlight that without a clear rebound in Solana’s usage metrics, the token may continue to lag competing ecosystems and the broader market.

Hyperliquid’s HYPE token has fallen more than 56.5% in under 90 days, dropping from $58 to below $25 even as its DEX revenue reaches monthly highs in October and November. A crypto venture CEO has criticized the project’s daily $2 million buybacks, while traders watch key chart levels around $30 resistance and $22.5 support to gauge whether the downtrend will extend. At the same time, Bitcoin Hyper, a Bitcoin-focused Layer 2 that has raised nearly $29.5M and offers around 39% APY for stakers, is attracting attention as a utility-driven alternative during the market slowdown.

XRP Ledger has activated the fixDirectoryLimit amendment, removing the hard‑coded cap on directory pages and relying on Owner Reserves to deter spam. The update aims to stop tecDIR_FULL failures when a single price level draws thousands of offers (e.g., 500 bids at $2.50), improving user experience for traders and reducing unnecessary checks for validators.
