Capital.com plans to offer crypto asset trading services on the spot market in the UAE after affiliate company obtains license

The trading platform and CFD broker Capital.com plans to offer spot crypto asset trading services to clients in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This follows its affiliated company, Capital Vault, obtaining a virtual assets license from the country's Capital Markets Authority (CMA). The license permits Capital Vault to operate as a virtual assets agent or a matched principal, and to provide custody services. Once launched, clients in the UAE will be able to buy and hold crypto assets through the Capital.com app, with Capital Vault handling trade execution, custody, and settlement. This contrasts with Capital.com's CFD offering, which allows trading on price movements without owning the underlying asset. Capital Vault operates as a separate, regulated entity with its own management, asset storage system, and risk procedures, and has established an office in Abu Dhabi. The move comes after the CMA introduced an enhanced regulatory framework for virtual assets in April, expanding the scope of regulated activities.

Winklevoss Urges Investors to Seize Opportunity to Buy Bitcoin on the Dip

Bitcoin is currently trading almost 50% below its October high of $126,198. Tyler Winklevoss suggested that if investors last year knew Bitcoin would reach $120,000, they would rush to buy it at a discount. In a post on X, he stated that AI-powered trading has given the world a "time machine" to go back and invest in Bitcoin at $65,000 levels, calling the current downturn an unprecedented buying opportunity and questioning when Bitcoin will "return to the future." Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin rose 12% to $71,980, with its market cap at $1.44 trillion. Daily trading volume surged 292% to $66.2 billion. The Winklevoss twins, Cameron and Tyler, famously sued Mark Zuckerberg over Facebook's origins, later settling for $65 million in cash and stock. They invested part of this in Bitcoin in 2012, becoming early crypto billionaires, and founded the Gemini exchange in 2014. Gemini's recent Q2 report showed a weakened crypto market impacted its business: trading revenue fell 38% year-on-year to $12.5 million, and total trading volume dropped from $11.3 billion to $3.8 billion. However, the exchange's total revenue grew 37% to $45.5 million, with service and interest revenue jumping 117% to $26 million. Previously, Cameron Winklevoss urged world governments to buy Bitcoin to build strategic crypto reserves, arguing that rare earth minerals, gold, and oil are no longer sufficient to preserve geopolitical influence.

Trader Made $49 Million Profit and Lost $24 Million in 12 Seconds Shorting ETH

A crypto trader known as "pension‐usdt.eth" had their large Ethereum short position forcibly liquidated in just 12 seconds, resulting in a loss of nearly $24 million. Prior to this, the wallet, using the display name "Pension Fund," had been one of the year's most successful short sellers, accruing an estimated $49 million in total profit from bets against cryptocurrencies, including profitable shorts on 60,000 ETH and 1,400 BTC in June. The liquidation on the Hyperliquid platform was triggered by a sharp price surge in major tokens. Five forced-sell orders for a total of 50,000 ETH were executed from 04:51:03 to 04:51:15, accelerating the price increase. Four batches of ETH were sold at prices ranging from $2,193 to $2,236. The remaining 1,417 ETH were absorbed by Hyperliquid's special fund as no buyers were found. During the 12-second event, Ether's price jumped by $43. The short position had been held for roughly two months (1,445 hours) during a period of lower Bitcoin prices. The market reversed following a U.S. Treasury bond buyback announcement, with Ether gaining $18 in 24 hours. The trader's wallet is now essentially empty, showing a 100% loss against a trading volume of $111.76 million. This event was part of a broader market liquidation of $2.74 billion in short positions in 24 hours, the largest such wave since 2021.

Trump Constantly Mentions HYPE in His Remarks, Driving HYPE's Price to Soar Toward Record Highs

Former US President Donald Trump, during a White House meeting with leaders from crypto, tech, and financial firms on August 19, specifically mentioned CFTC Chairman Michael Selig's work on the Hyperliquid project. Trump's remarks focused on efforts to bring Hyperliquid to the US market compliantly. Attendees included executives from Coinbase, Ripple, Robinhood, SEC, Kraken, Gemini, Cboe, and ICE. Following Trump's comments, Hyperliquid's native token, $HYPE, surged roughly 20-25% within 24 hours, trading between $70-$73, nearing its June 2026 all-time high of over $76. Its market cap approached $18 billion, with daily trading volume exceeding $1.3 billion, ranking it 9th among tokens. However, Trump's statement did not announce any regulatory approval, CFTC registration, or specific US launch timeline. Hyperliquid's main interface still blocks US users, meaning traders were betting on a potential regulatory breakthrough, not a finalized deal. Hyperliquid is a blockchain built for trading, specializing in perpetual futures. It matches orders directly on-chain, aiming for centralized exchange speed while maintaining DeFi transparency and self-custody. At times, it has handled 40-70% of decentralized perpetual futures trading volume. The $HYPE token, launched via an airdrop in November 2024, is central to the network's economics. A significant portion of protocol fees goes to a buyback fund, creating sustained demand for the token. Trump's endorsement is seen as a catalyst for potential US market access, which could open the platform to institutional traders. Shares of Nasdaq-listed Hyperliquid Strategies, centered around $HYPE holdings, also jumped 30-31%, while shares of traditional derivatives operators like Cboe and CME fell. The path to a US launch remains a regulatory "minefield," involving unresolved issues on asset custody, leverage, market oversight, and customer protection. Traders now await concrete proposals from the CFTC, making $HYPE's recent gains dependent on follow-through actions after Trump's supportive signal.

HYPE Token Surges 22% Following Comments by Donald Trump

The price of the HYPE token surged by over 22% in the last 24 hours, nearing its all-time high, following comments from former President Donald Trump. Trump stated that CFTC Chairman Michael Sellig is working to bring the Hyperliquid futures exchange to the U.S. market "in full compliance with the law." The platform's growing popularity for 24/7 access to assets like oil, coupled with a broader cryptocurrency market rally—with Bitcoin and Ethereum also posting significant gains—further contributed to the token's sharp increase.

Crypto trading contributed around 1% to Webull's record $198 million revenue in Q2

Webull reported that cryptocurrency trading generated $2.25 million in revenue, accounting for just over 1% of its record-breaking $198 million total revenue for the second quarter of 2026. The platform's overall revenue grew by 51% year-over-year. Revenue from stock and options trading made up the majority, contributing $112 million or about 56% of the total. During an earnings call, Webull's President Anthony Michael Denier noted a positive outlook for the crypto business, stating that "the clouds are dissipating" for the first time in nine months. He added that the company is gradually rolling out crypto deposit and withdrawal features. The platform's quarterly revenue slightly exceeded Wall Street consensus estimates of $194.5 million. Following the announcement, Webull's stock price rose significantly. In contrast, competitor Robinhood reported record quarterly results in late July but saw its crypto transaction revenue decline by 38% to $100 million.

Coinbase Takes a Huge Leap Forward! A New Era Begins for Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Altcoins! Here are the Details

While Bitcoin and altcoins experience a sharp rise, Coinbase has taken a major step by introducing a derivatives trading product to users of its Base App. The exchange has integrated Hyperliquid's perpetual futures trading functionality into the app. This integration allows eligible users to access over 290 perpetual futures markets directly within Base, using leverage of up to 50x depending on the asset. Supported assets include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), as well as stock and commodity markets. The new system enables users to utilize Hyperliquid's blockchain-based trading infrastructure and liquidity without leaving their existing wallets. Coinbase noted that perpetual futures account for roughly 75% of crypto market trading volume and were a highly requested feature among active Base App users. However, this new leveraged derivatives service will not be available in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and certain other regions with restrictions on such trading.

Fidelity Assesses the Limits of AI's Influence on the Crypto Market

Fidelity Analysts Assess the Limits of AI's Impact on the Crypto Market Fidelity Digital Assets senior analyst Max Waddington notes that AI agents could become a new source of activity in the digital asset sector, from payments to trading and lending. However, the benefits will likely be distributed unevenly. Fidelity's study of over 100,000 GitHub developers shows AI coding assistants increased commit counts by up to 180% and releases by 30%. These tools enable smaller teams to build blockchain applications faster, though critical financial software still requires manual code review. In the crypto industry itself, developer counts fell in 2026 amid lower prices, but commits per developer continued to rise. Waddington cautions that more applications don't guarantee success; user adoption, liquidity, compliance, and trust remain key. Autonomous AI agents, capable of payments, trading, liquidity provision, and lending, are emerging as another driver. Blockchains are suitable due to 24/7 operation and programmable settlements. According to Keyrock, AI agents had already conducted over 176 million transactions worth more than $73 million by May, predominantly using USDC. Infrastructure is developing, with Coinbase launching tools like the x402 protocol and 'Coinbase for Agents'. However, Fidelity expects agents to use multiple platforms (both public blockchains and traditional finance systems) based on cost and convenience. A surge in AI-driven transactions may not proportionally boost blockchain revenue. Payments, while numerous, generate low fees and can be batched or moved to cheaper Layer 2s. Capital-intensive activities like trading are far more lucrative for networks; over 180 days, trading generated 49x more revenue per dollar of volume for Ethereum's base layer than payments did, with additional revenue from MEV. Therefore, analysts see greater potential in AI agents involved in trading, lending, and liquidity provision. Widespread automated payments would primarily benefit stablecoin issuers and infrastructure providers rather than native blockchain tokens. This aligns with earlier comments from Bernstein and Franklin Templeton on AI agents driving crypto payments and being key to stablecoins' future.
