Glassnode has expanded its analytics platform to track digital asset markets beyond crypto-native venues. New data includes daily price and volume for U.S. spot ETFs and publicly-listed digital asset treasury (DAT) companies. This allows users to compare the behavior of these listed equities against underlying crypto assets, assessing which stocks act as strong proxies. ETF trading volume data provides insights into institutional participation and liquidity, helping to distinguish genuine market trends from thin, speculative moves. These new metrics offer a unified view of crypto exposure through traditional finance instruments, bridging the gap between on-chain and traditional market data.

Glassnode has continued to expand its Traditional Finance coverage in Studio, helping users connect crypto-native market activity with the growing universe of listed instruments tied to digital assets.

This expansion reflects the growing role of ETFs, treasury companies, and other listed vehicles in digital asset market analysis, as institutional exposure increasingly moves beyond spot markets.

Two new metric families are now live:

  • US Spot ETF Price & Volume
  • US Digital Asset Treasury Company Price & Volume.

For each selected crypto asset, users can now retrieve daily price and traded volume across the relevant US spot ETFs and publicly listed treasury companies, with one time series per ticker. This gives investors a more complete view of how crypto exposure is being expressed through traditional equity markets.

DATs: Analyzing Equity Behavior Relative to Crypto

For US Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies, the data makes it easier to compare how listed equities behave relative to the underlying crypto asset and assess which names exhibit stronger or weaker equity beta to crypto market movements.

For example, users can compare BTC performance against companies holding BTC on their balance sheet to identify which stocks behave more like direct crypto proxies, and which names trade with a more idiosyncratic equity profile.

US Spot ETF Volume: Assessing Participation and Liquidity Conditions

The addition of trading volume is particularly useful for US spot ETFs. Trading volume provides insight into liquidity, participation, and conviction.

For example, a sharp spike in ETF trading volume around a major price move or macro event can signal heavy institutional repositioning — and comparing ETF volume against the underlying spot market shows how much real flow is moving through TradFi venues versus crypto-native ones. Sustained volume can confirm genuine demand behind a price trend, while thin volume on a move may warrant more caution.

Together, these new metrics strengthen Glassnode’s ability to bridge crypto-native data with traditional market instruments, giving users a unified view of spot assets, ETFs, and listed treasury vehicles directly in Studio.

Warsh's First Day in Office, Markets Deliver a 'Wake-up Call': Rate Hike Expected This Year

On his first day in office, newly inaugurated Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh received a stark market warning, with expectations now fully pricing in a 25-basis-point interest rate hike this year. The shift was triggered by hawkish remarks from Fed Governor Waller, who stated that inflation is now the key policy "driver" and that the odds of a hike or cut are evenly split. This sent short-term Treasury yields higher. Waller signaled a significant pivot in his stance, citing disappointing inflation and labor data. He suggested removing "easing bias" language from Fed statements and did not rule out future rate increases if inflation fails to recede, though he noted immediate action isn't warranted without signs of unanchored inflation expectations. Chairman Warsh faces immediate pressure at his first FOMC meeting in June. With the preferred inflation gauge at a three-year high, analysts warn that failing to hike could be interpreted as an implicit easing of policy. The geopolitical situation in the Middle East is adding to existing price pressures. The market's expectation for a hike contrasts sharply with earlier forecasts for multiple cuts. While long-term Treasury yields have been contained by lower energy prices recently, analysts note they remain under structural upward pressure. Warsh's swearing-in at the White House highlights political scrutiny over Fed independence. However, the market has made it clear that inflation is the most urgent challenge, leaving the new chairman little time to settle in.

Has Microsoft Lost Its Way in the AI Race, and Can Copilot Bring It Back on Track?

Microsoft, once seen as an early AI frontrunner due to its investment in OpenAI, is navigating a strategic shift amid increased competition. Its initial reliance on OpenAI’s GPT models has been complicated by OpenAI’s growing ambitions as a direct competitor, rapid advancements from rivals like Claude and Gemini, and the disruptive rise of AI agents, which challenge its traditional SaaS business model. These factors contributed to stock declines and slower-than-expected adoption of its flagship Copilot products. In response, CEO Satya Nadella has taken a hands-on role in product development, signaling the urgency of change. Microsoft is pivoting from a model-centric strategy to a "model-agnostic" enterprise platform approach. It aims to become the foundational layer connecting various AI models—from OpenAI, Anthropic, or its own new "Superintelligence" team—with enterprise workflows, data, security, and cloud services. Recent organizational changes merged consumer and enterprise Copilot teams to accelerate innovation, exemplified by new products like Copilot Tasks and Copilot Cowork. However, this transformation comes at a high cost. Microsoft faces massive capital expenditures, potentially reaching ~$190 billion by 2026, to support AI infrastructure. While its platform strategy shows early signs of traction with growing Azure AI revenue, it must balance startup-like agility with the reliability expected by enterprise clients. The core challenge is no longer being the sole AI winner but defending its position as the essential enterprise software entry point amidst rapid technological commoditization and the shift towards always-on AI agents.
