Bitcoin’s share of the market rose, with BTC dominance up 0.94% to 58.51%, while the Altcoin Index hit 64, spiking as high as 78 intraday. That’s the strongest alt reading in weeks, a sign rotation is back in play.

Stablecoins confirmed the momentum. On September 23, inflows totaled $302.12M, with $80M into USDT and $175.37M into USDC, lifting the total supply to $251.421B.

The flipside: liquidations surged. The market saw $1.7B in forced unwindings, the largest single-day wipeout since 2021.

Arthur Hayes sold 96,600 HYPE, citing the looming November 2025 linear unlock of 237.8M HYPE tokens, which will release nearly $500M/month for two years. Analysts call it the token’s “Damocles sword”.
