Analysts expect a new Bitcoin record in the coming weeks
Axel Adler, a crypto analyst at CryptoQuant, predicts that Bitcoin has a 70% chance of breaking its all-time high in the next two weeks. According to him, investor sentiment is generally calm, and trading data shows signs of a bullish trend.
As of September 22, 2025, Bitcoin is trading at around $112,950. It set its latest record of $124,128 on August 14. Experts at Glassnode believe that $117,000 will be an important milestone for the price. If Bitcoin manages to consolidate above this level, new records can be expected, but if not, the market may be stuck in a sideways movement (without growth or a serious decline) for a long time.
The first cryptocurrency is supported by ETFs (investment funds through which large players can buy BTC). Over the past week, more than $2.3 billion has been invested in them, marking the largest inflow of money since July 2025. Moreover, on the largest exchange, Coinbase, Bitcoin and Ethereum reserves reached $112 billion, a record level in four years.
Regarding long-term forecasts, Benjamin Cowen, founder of ITC Crypto, predicts that during the next market crisis, the first cryptocurrency could experience a price decline of approximately 70%. He recalled that in previous years, Bitcoin had already fallen by almost 80-90% from its record prices. He said that this may not necessarily happen again, but there is a probability.
PayPal is to add Bitcoin and Ethereum to new link transfers
On September 15, 2025, PayPal introduced a new service for transferring money between people — PayPal Links. In the near future, it will be possible to send not only dollars but also Bitcoin, Ethereum, as well as the company's own coin, PYUSD, whose value is pegged to the dollar.
Users can create a personal link for the transfer and send it via SMS, email, or messenger. The recipient can quickly accept the money using this link. Links are active for 10 days. Additionally, you can add a comment and track the transaction's status.
For simple transfers between individuals, no tax reporting is required. This includes gifts, reimbursement of expenses, or joint spending. The service will first launch in the US, followed by the UK, Italy, and other countries by the end of September. You can top up your PayPal account with cash dollars on favorable terms through ObmenAT24.
Changpeng Zhao back in the game? Investor turns $1,000 into $1 million on BNB growth
An ordinary trader managed to increase his capital a thousandfold thanks to the BNB cryptocurrency. In 2017, he purchased 999 coins for $1,000 (at that time, each coin was worth approximately $1). On September 18, 2025, the price of BNB exceeded $1,000 per coin for the first time. Thus, his investment reached $1 million.
The price increase was driven by a cut in the key rate by the Fed (the US central bank), as well as news that the Binance exchange may be able to shake off pressure from US regulators. Despite the huge profit, the investor is not selling his coins yet.
Analysts also reported on another user who invested $226,000 in APX cryptocurrency and earned about $2.3 million. The price of the coin increased more than fivefold in one day.
The sharp increase is associated with the launch of a new decentralized exchange (a platform where transactions take place directly between users) called Aster. It was supported by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ).
Aster appeared after the merger of two projects — Astherus and APX Finance. In September, the team launched its own token, ASTER. APX owners were given the opportunity to exchange them for the new cryptocurrency.
The community is actively discussing how CZ is involved in the launch of Aster. Formally, he cannot hold management positions due to a ban by the US authorities, but the project still received support through Binance's venture division, YZi Labs.
The capitalization of the ASTER token exceeded $1 billion, and the coin itself is worth about $1.44. The BNB rate is $1,019 as of September 22, 2025.
MetaMask is preparing to release its own MASK token
Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin announced that the MetaMask wallet will soon receive its own token called MASK. According to him, the launch may take place sooner than users expect. The new token will be linked to decentralization (the transfer of part of the management from the company to the community).
Team representatives previously warned that the launch would only be announced within the app to avoid fraud. Users will be able to find the link directly in the wallet, without newsletters or announcements on social networks.
It has also become known that MetaMask will integrate futures trading (contracts to buy or sell an asset in the future) through the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange.
New vulnerability in Chrome allows hackers to steal cryptocurrency
A serious vulnerability has been discovered in the Google Chrome browser, which allows hackers to steal cryptocurrency. Experts warn: simply opening an infected website is enough to lose money from your wallet.
Google has already released an upgrade that closes the security hole, so users should update their browsers as soon as possible. The vulnerability affected not only Chrome but also other browsers built on the same platform, including Edge and Brave.
According to experts, hackers could use the bug to access private keys (secret codes from wallets) and withdraw funds. The company did not disclose details for security reasons.
How to protect yourself?
- Update Chrome and other browsers to the latest version.
- Do not store private keys on devices with Internet access.
- Use more reliable methods of storing cryptocurrency, such as hardware wallets or multi-signature (when multiple confirmations are required to transfer funds).
