Crypto Price Forecasts: Bitcoin, Worldcoin & Stellar – European Market Wrap 26 September 2025
Digital assets face pivotal moment as institutional money floods the space
Bitcoin's Resilience Tested
The original cryptocurrency shows surprising stability amid regulatory uncertainty—trading volumes suggest whales are accumulating at current levels despite traditional finance's skepticism.
Worldcoin's Biometric Bet
Sam Altman's controversial project continues pushing boundaries with iris-scanning technology adoption, though privacy advocates remain unconvinced about trading personal data for token rewards.
Stellar's Cross-Border Ambition
XLM positions itself as the quiet workhorse of international settlements, leveraging partnerships with legacy financial institutions while avoiding the flashier NFT and DeFi trends dominating smaller caps.
As central bankers debate digital currency frameworks, decentralized assets keep building real-world utility—proving once again that innovation moves faster than regulation. Wall Street analysts still can't decide whether crypto is the future or just a speculative bubble, but the market doesn't seem to care either way.
Bitcoin Weekly Forecast: BTC falls sharply as massive liquidations rock the market
Bitcoin (BTC) price hovers around $109,000 at the time of writing on Friday after shedding nearly 5% so far this week. The broader cryptocurrency market experienced its largest single-day liquidation event of the year, wiping out mostly long positions. The broader outlook remains fragile as the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) cautious stance on rate cuts and escalating geopolitical conflicts dampen risk appetite.
Worldcoin integrates Chainlink CCIP as WLD eyes rebound, LINK faces supply pressure
Worldcoin (WLD) announced the adoption of Chainlink’s (LINK) Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to enable cross-chain transfers, while WLD's technical outlook suggests a potential rebound with a wedge pattern breakout.
Meanwhile, chainlink bought back LINK tokens on Thursday to further expand its token reserve. Despite this, LINK struggles to regain traders’ interest and risks further decline.
Stellar Price Forecast: XLM falls more than 6% despite SEC's approval of Hashdex ETF
Stellar (XLM) price stabilizes around $0.354 at the time of writing on Friday, after slipping more than 6% on Thursday. This drop occurred despite the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approval of the Hashdex Nasdaq crypto Index US Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), which provides exposure to major cryptocurrencies, including Stellar. Despite the short-term weakness, XLM is approaching a crucial support level that could trigger a rebound, with technical signals suggesting growing bullish interest among traders.
