An Nvidia backed startup has now confirmed plans to mine Bitcoin in orbit, and one of Australia’s oldest crypto exchanges has filed to bring tokenized real world assets to regulated markets. When the industry is literally sending mining rigs into space and traditional finance is tokenizing bonds on chain, the btc price at $74,000 under Trump’s crypto friendly administration is unmistakably about to power up those rare tokens that have real infrastructure to rely on, according to CoinDesk.

And among them, there is no project like the PEPE cofounder’s Pepeto, built by the founder who turned PEPE from zero into $7 billion to change the meme economy forever. While the presale is still at $0.000000186 with $7.99 million raised, exchange listings are just days away and likely to bring with them the 269x run that the community has been projecting. Once those tokens are repriced, this rare opportunity would have already slipped through the fingers of those who were not paying attention.

Crypto News: Bitcoin Mining Shifts as Pepeto Builds

From orbital ASIC rigs to tokenized bonds

Starcloud, backed by Nvidia, confirmed that it will attach Bitcoin ASIC miners to its second spacecraft later this year, positioning itself as the first company to mine crypto off Earth. Meanwhile, Australian exchange BTC Markets notified ASIC of its intention to apply for a market licence to offer tokenized equities, bonds, and real world assets alongside crypto. BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan have already launched real products in this space. The pepe coin price surged 15% and the dogecoin price reclaimed $0.101 as the meme economy wakes up alongside these institutional moves, per Bloomberg.

Crypto news backs up infrastructure heading into spring

1. Pepeto: The PEPE cofounder’s $7 billion credibility powers the best presale of the cycle

The funny thing about the Starcloud announcement is that its pitch is mining in space is more efficient because the infrastructure is purpose built for the environment. The PEPE cofounder’s Pepeto follows the exact same logic, only it is applied to the $45 billion meme economy instead of hashrate. PepetoSwap is being engineered for zero tax cross chain meme trading across Ethereum, Solana, and BSC. Pepeto Bridge approaches deployment to connect fragmented liquidity. Pepeto Exchange is close to launching as the first curated verified marketplace.

SolidProof has verified every contract. Over 4 billion tokens permanently burned. 200% APY staking compounds daily. The PEPE cofounder who built $7 billion stakes his reputation alongside every investor. This is not a speculative promise from an anonymous team. This is the cofounder who already proved he can create billions in value doing the same thing again with dedicated infrastructure. At $0.000000186 with $7.99 million raised and exchange listings approaching, this is the crypto news story with the most direct upside for traders who remember the days before the last cycle when the earliest believers became legends.

2. Hedera

HBAR was at $0.094 to kick off the second week of March. The governing council of global corporations including IBM, Google, and Boeing lends HBAR a credibility floor most altcoins lack. Year end targets could reach $0.11, around 18% upside. XRP at $1.54 under Trump’s improving regulatory framework shows similar institutional consolidation patterns.

3. XRP

Down modestly amid persistent technical selling pressure, XRP is at $1.54 on March 16. The year end ceiling is at $2.10, roughly 43% above current levels contingent on broader market recovery. XRP’s post SEC resolution era has driven above $1.4 billion in Q1 ETF inflows, but the token’s $85 billion market cap precludes realistic shots at explosive returns compared to the PEPE cofounder’s presale at $0.000000186.

Last look

Bitcoin mining is heading to orbit while the PEPE cofounder’s Pepeto has raised $7.99 million with three infrastructure products close to being ready. The window is closing fast. Exchange listings will permanently erase presale pricing, and the cofounder who delivered $7 billion is not extending the countdown. At $0.000000186 this is the last chance before the market reprices everything and the opportunity vanishes forever.

FAQs

What is the biggest story in crypto industry news this week?

Nvidia backed Starcloud announced orbital Bitcoin mining. But Pepeto’s $7.99 million presale under the PEPE cofounder with exchange listings approaching has the most direct upside.

Which tokens have fundamentals to rely on in 2026?

The PEPE cofounder’s Pepeto with three products, SolidProof verification, and $7.99 million raised at $0.000000186 is among the strongest.

Is XRP or Pepeto better for explosive returns?

XRP’s $85 billion cap precludes triple digit multiples. Pepeto at $0.000000186 with the PEPE cofounder offers 269x potential.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.
