Ripple’s $1B XRP Treasury Buyback: What Happens When Holdings Hit $10B?
Ripple drops billion-dollar bomb on crypto markets with massive XRP acquisition plan.
The Treasury Transformation
Ripple's $1 billion XRP purchase signals aggressive confidence in its native token—pushing treasury reserves toward that elusive $10 billion milestone. Market watchers scramble to calculate potential price impacts as the company doubles down on its own ecosystem.
Price Projections Unleashed
Analysts crunch numbers while traders position for volatility. The move creates artificial scarcity while demonstrating Ripple's conviction—or perhaps just another corporate treasury playing with shareholder money like it's a casino chip.
This isn't just accumulation—it's a power play that could reshape XRP's entire valuation model. Because nothing says financial innovation like a company buying its own product to prop up the price.

Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs See Major Outflows as Investor Sentiment Cools
On October 16 (ET), the crypto ETF market faced significant withdrawals, signaling a dip in investor confidence. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a massive total net outflow of $536 million, with none of the twelve funds posting inflows. Meanwhile, spot ethereum ETFs also saw red, logging $56.88 million in total net outflows. The only exception was BlackRock’s ETHA, which managed to attract a modest net inflow. The synchronized outflows across both Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs suggest a broader market cooldown, as traders take profits amid rising volatility and uncertainty over the next market move.

CZ Responds to QMMM Exit Scandal, Calls for Crypto DAT Oversight
After reports surfaced that “the first DAT company, QMMM,” allegedly ran off with investor funds, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) weighed in on the controversy. In a post on X, CZ urged all Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) firms to adopt stricter safeguards, including using third-party crypto custodians and allowing investor-audited account setups. CZ emphasized that such transparency measures should be mandatory for all BNB DAT investments by YZi Labs, marking a push for greater accountability in the fast-growing DAT sector. The move follows mounting investor concerns over unregulated projects mishandling funds amid the industry’s ongoing expansion.
All DAT companies should use 3rd party crypto custodians with account setup audited by investors.
This is a prerequisite for any @yzilabs investments in any #BNB DATs. https://t.co/POsFWZqoJG
