Hedera (HBAR) climbed to $0.21 on October 28 after surging more than 16% in 24 hours, lifting its market cap from $7.6 billion to $8.84 billion and adding over $1 billion in a single day.  HBAR’s rally coincides with a landmark development for institutional adoption: Nasdaq has posted the official listing circular for the Canary HBAR ETF (Ticker: HBR), which begins trading today. The ETF will provide direct spot exposure to HBAR, with custody handled by BitGo and Coinbase Custody, and pricing powered by CoinDesk Indices. Notably, the product marks a watershed moment, opening the door for regulated inflows from traditional finance and signaling a new level of legitimacy for Hedera’s native token.

Finbold turned to artificial intelligence (AI) to project an average Bitcoin (BTC) price target for the end of 2025 following the news that Mt. Gox, a defunct cryptocurrency exchange, would postpone repayments to its creditors by another year.  Entities associated with Mt. Gox still control around 34,689 BTC, valued at around $3.98 billion as of the time of writing, according to Arkham . While the figure is just a quarter of the 142,000 BTC supply the exchange held in mid-2024, analysts are still wondering how the delay could affect Bitcoin’s price in the following months, now that a dump is no longer in consideration. BTC price prediction  According to OpenAI’s leading model, ChatGPT-5, Bitcoin could trade around $150,000 by the end of 2025, assuming the Mt. Gox repayment delay can relieve selling pressure and the market sentiment can remain neutral in the coming months. A more bull case, however, could see the asset trading at $200,000, provided inst...
