Galaxy Digital to Launch Tokenized Money-Market Fund on Blockchains

TheCryptoTimesPublicado em 2025-09-16Última atualização em 2025-09-16

Galaxy Digital is expanding its digital asset footprint with plans to launch a tokenized money-market fund. The New York-based company, led by Mike Novogratz, wants to give investors a crypto-friendly alternative to similar funds offered by big players like BlackRock and Franklin Templeton. 

The fund will roll out in the coming months and promises to operate across Ethereum, Solana, and Stellar. However, it will not launch on all chains at once. Anchorage Digital will serve as custodian for the fund.

The move highlights Galaxy’s ambition to blend traditional investment structures with blockchain innovation. “The overarching ambition is to use the power of tokenization to offer instant liquidity,” one person familiar with the plan explained. 

Moreover, Galaxy has closely observed BlackRock’s $2.2 billion BUIDL fund and Franklin Templeton’s BENJI token. Hence, the company believes it can improve on engagement and usability by refining investor access and liquidity features.

Expansion Through Tokenization

Besides its tokenized fund, Galaxy has deepened its involvement in Solana. On Sunday, it purchased $306 million worth of Solana tokens in a single day, as per Lookonchain.

The firm acquired 1.2 million SOL from various exchanges and secured them with Fireblocks. Consequently, this adds to a buying spree that surpassed $1.5 billion in recent days.

Additionally, Galaxy announced joining forces with Multicoin Capital and Jump Crypto to invest in Forward Industries. The company, once focused on medical devices, has now switched Solana treasuries raising $1.65 billion.

Galaxy is also exploring how tokenized funds and treasury investments can transform digital finance. Plus, their capability to provide instant liquidity across various blockchains could shake things up for traditional financial players. 

Galaxy is placing its bets on tokenization and accumulating Solana to spearhead institutional crypto adoption, showing its belief in blockchain technology.

The Countdown Has Begun for the BNB Chain Network Update Named Pasteur

The countdown has begun for the BNB Chain's upcoming hard fork, named "Pasteur," scheduled for the mainnet on August 25, 2026. Unlike previous updates focused on speed, Pasteur aims for comprehensive enhancements centered on security and network efficiency. It incorporates three key proposals under BEP-673: BEP-682 strengthens bridge validation, BEP-695 ensures proper validator key rotation to prevent undue power concentration, and BEP-675 increases block size while maintaining speed, allowing blocks to hold more transactions. These improvements are designed to enhance the security of the bridge, staking, and governance, while also boosting network capacity. The hard fork is currently active on the BSC testnet, and node operators are urged to upgrade to version 1.7.7 before the mainnet activation. This update aligns with BNB Chain's goal to double mainnet throughput and achieve a tenfold performance improvement in the latter half of the year.

Why Crypto Farms in Georgia Have Become a Subject of Dispute Over the Energy System

Former National Bank president and opposition politician Roman Gotsiridze claims cryptocurrency mining farms in Georgia are straining the national energy system while contributing almost nothing to the state budget, operating on tax and electricity tariff privileges. He states the farms consume about 6% of domestically generated electricity, or roughly 1 billion kilowatt-hours annually—equivalent to the consumption of Batumi—maintaining a constant load on the grid linked to frequent infrastructure failures. While not advocating a blanket ban, Gotsiridze argues mining should operate under general business conditions, competing and paying taxes. He alleges the largest farm is linked to Bidzina Ivanishvili's ruling party clan and benefits from unjustified preferential treatment. His core demand is an immediate ban on cryptocurrency mining in free industrial zones, removing its privileged status, as the sector consumes vast energy with minimal fiscal return for Georgia.

Fed Research: Crypto Investors Driven by Beliefs, Returns Change Their Decisions

A new working paper from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland provides a novel explanation for cryptocurrency's divergence from traditional financial assets. It finds that American crypto investors are distinguished not by demographics or risk tolerance alone, but by their radically different beliefs about future returns. This divergence in expectations better explains who owns crypto than factors like age or income, a reversal of the pattern seen with stocks or bonds. The research, based on surveys of up to 25,000 US households, shows crypto owners expected an average 22% annual return, compared to just 7% for non-owners. A one-percentage-point increase in an individual's expected return was linked to a 0.8-point rise in ownership likelihood. A randomized experiment revealed that simply showing information about Bitcoin's past 12-month performance increased respondents' desired crypto portfolio share by about 47% and spurred subsequent purchases, primarily among those who previously felt uninformed. The study suggests this dynamic—where past gains attract new buyers, pushing prices higher and reinforcing bullish beliefs—could fuel speculative bubbles. It also indicates crypto wealth gains are treated more like "gambling winnings" than permanent income, boosting purchases of durable goods but not everyday spending. The broader conclusion is that crypto volatility stems partly from investor disagreement and learning, not just market fundamentals. With widespread misunderstanding and shifting expectations driven by performance data, price swings are likely to remain a defining feature of the asset class. Future retail demand may depend not just on Bitcoin's price, but on what information investors receive about its past performance.

Bitcoin Fork ECX, Created by Paul Sztorc, Surpasses 25,000 Blocks in Just 13 Hours

The ECX Bitcoin fork, created by Drivechain developer Paul Sztorc, launched its alpha phase at Bitcoin block height 963,648. Remarkably, the network surpassed 25,000 blocks in just 13 hours due to its initial difficulty being set to 1, mirroring Bitcoin's 2009 launch. By Sunday morning, August 23, the difficulty had already skyrocketed to 16.78 million after several adjustments, with miners contributing a hashrate of 3.53 PH/s to the chain. This level of support from multiple mining pools starkly contrasts with the failed BIP-110 event earlier in the month, which lacked miner backing. While ECX has attracted real mining power and has a small number of wallets, the ecash (ECX) token currently has no established market value and is not yet listed on exchanges. Its economic viability will face a significant test after the initial mining surge subsides and block rewards diminish, especially during the long wait until the network's final phase is scheduled for launch on October 31, 2026. The early activity demonstrates technical feasibility, but sustained growth will depend on whether it can maintain miner interest and attract listings from wallets and exchanges in the absence of a tradable price.
