Metaplanet Is Selling Vol, Who Is Next?
Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) firms have taken center stage in crypto narratives this year — but few have discussed their structural selling of volatility. This report dives into how DATs may be suppressing realized and implied BTC volatility during a period of historically low market movement.
DeFi Analytics – 3 October 2025
A weekly data-driven review of DeFi market metrics, covering network fee generation, Beacon Chain balance shifts, Uniswap V3 activity, and liquidation flows across major protocols.
Crypto Markets Hold Sideways
BTC traded rangebound between $121K–$123K despite $440M in ETF inflows, signaling limited follow-through after the $126K ATH. Funding remained neutral, while volatility smiles reverted to put premiums — pointing toward cautious sentiment.
Meanwhile, U.S. equities rose modestly, Treasury yields held firm, and PayPay’s 40% stake in Binance Japan underscored continued institutional activity.
Gold Claims the Spotlight
As BTC and U.S. equities cooled from record highs, gold broke above the $4,000/oz mark — its strongest level in history. ETH fell 5%, driving stronger demand for short-term downside protection and widening put-call skews across major options markets.
Crypto and Gold Surge to New Highs
BTC crossed $126K and gold neared $4,000, both posting record highs. Options data shows heavy call positioning around $140K strikes — yet persistent demand for puts reflects caution among institutional traders.
Global bond yields also climbed amid political shifts in Japan and France, highlighting tightening macro linkages between crypto and traditional assets.
BTC and Gold Shine Amid Talk of a Debasement Trade
Bitcoin hit $125,689 and gold surged to $3,920, supported by U.S. fiscal concerns and heavy ETF inflows. With the dollar weakening nearly 10% YTD, investors appear to be rotating into hard assets — a “debasement trade” narrative gaining traction across global markets.
Altcoins followed suit, with ETH above $4,600 and SOL near $236 amid growing optimism for spot ETF approvals.
