🚨JUST IN: Winklevoss group files for a spot Zcash ETF under the ticker WINK.
The proposed Nasdaq fund would hold $ZEC directly, use Gemini as custodian and charge a 0.25% fee.
Winklevoss Capital has also indicated interest in buying up to $100 MILLION of shares.
That makes Winklevoss the third issuer chasing the US Zcash ETF market after Grayscale and Bitwise.
Grayscale’s ZEC ETF already holds nearly $890 MILLION in assets after launching in August.
The Zcash ETF race is getting crowded fast.

Vitalik: Traditional On-Chain Applications May No Longer Exist in Two Years
On October 6, 2026, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin @VitalikButerin said at the OKX NOW event in Singapore that over the next two years, Ethereum transaction costs are expected to fall further, privacy capabilities will improve, and the integration of AI with on-chain applications will accelerate.
He said future on-chain interactions may increasingly be handled by bots, while traditional applications could become less prominent, with AI directly interpreting on-chain offers and filtering transactions on users’ behalf.
JUST IN: ZachXBT asks for donations after spending $349.7K of his own money to investigate $1B+ crypto exploits.
The request came after he revealed the full story behind one of his riskiest investigations yet.
He says he used the money to pose as a laundering client inside a Chinese syndicate moving funds for DPRK.
The trail led to “Jimmy Green,” a Telegram user allegedly helping move funds from the $1.5B Bybit hack.
To keep Jimmy talking, ZachXBT says he had to accept a 5% loss on every order.
Over time, Jimmy appeared to trust him, sharing wallet addresses, screenshots and bridge transactions in real time.
ZachXBT says he matched those flows on-chain, and evidence eventually helped Tether freeze $442K USDT.
He says he is now seeking grants and donations to keep taking on high-risk investigations like this.
He also revealed he is currently sitting on “significant findings” from other cases.

Called this back in July: TOTAL crypto market cap compressing into a wedge apex, said a move was coming and asked which side gets liquidated first.
Broke out. TOTAL's now at $2.91T, up from the ~$2.19-2.4T compression zone.
Structure > noise.
DON'T FADE MY CALLS💪

$GRASS support call from Aug 26 just played out — +100%+ since.
Said I wanted confirmation before calling a reversal. Got it.
NFA, just process > noise.

Total just broke out of the falling wage, could this be the start of an exponential move? Because the momentum is so strong that one candle engulf three weekly candle. I knew the bottom was over and the Bulls are back.
