Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, disclosed the October performance of its Private Wealth Management (PWM), highlighting continued stability and strong returns amid a month marked by volatility and global market tension.
Performance Highlights
In the latest Bybit PWM newsletter for October 2025, Bybit PWM demonstrated consistent strength across its portfolio, underscoring the division’s disciplined approach to managing wealth in dynamic markets.
October, often referred to as “Uptober” for its traditionally strong crypto performance, diverged from its usual trajectory this year. Escalating U.S.–China tariff tensions — particularly following the Oct. 11 developments that triggered widespread liquidations — combined with end-of-month Big Tech earnings volatility to create headwinds across digital asset markets.
Despite these challenges, Bybit PWM maintained resilient results. Its top-performing fund recorded a 16.94% annual percentage rate (APR), while USDT-based strategies achieved an average APR of 11.56%, and BTC-based strategies averaged 6.81%. Fund assets were aligned as of Sep. 28, 2025, and net asset values were calculated using the Time-Weighted Return (TWR) method, benchmarked against funding arbitrage performance.
Chart: Bybit PWM October 2025 Performance Overview
“Our October performance reaffirms the importance of discipline, diversification, and data-driven strategy in an uncertain environment,” said Jerry Li, Head of Financial Products & Wealth Management at Bybit. “We continue to prioritize stability for our clients while seeking opportunities that deliver consistent yield. Even when broader markets face turbulence, our structured approach allows us to navigate volatility with confidence.”
Bybit PWM’s diversified investment framework, supported by the exchange’s institutional-grade infrastructure, enables high-net-worth clients to access bespoke strategies designed for both wealth preservation and long-term growth.

LeverUp Offers Traders a Flexible and Full-Scale DeFi Platform
LeverUp, a brand-new Liquidity Provider (LP)-free perpetual exchange, has officially launched, offering traders a next-generation DeFi platform built on the layer-1 blockchain Monad. Backed by Makers Fund, LeverUp delivers a decentralized trading experience with uncapped open interest, free liquidity provider perpetuals, and scalability, offering traders zero fees. This partnership will allow LeverUp to utilize its on-chain, transparent trading of perpetuals to the fullest in Monad’s fast and scalable layer-1 blockchain. Users can anticipate more integrations and product updates to be revealed soon.
The current market landscape is marked by limited flexibility and high transaction costs across trading platforms. LeverUp introduces an alternative model that reallocates all protocol fees back to traders, rather than sharing them with liquidity providers. The platform is designed to promote a more transparent and balanced trading environment.
The DeFi landscape continues to offer potential opportunities for traders and investors, but structural inefficiencies persist: liquidity is fragmented across pools and protocols, forcing traders to split their capital and reducing returns, and complicated fee structures create friction and increase risk for users. As a result, the market has become incredibly competitive and complex to navigate as investors look to achieve consistent returns.
LeverUp was built to address these systemic challenges. Built on Monad, LeverUp introduces a new tech stack designed from the ground up to solve the liquidity, fees, and transparency issues while providing best-in-class performance, leverage, etc. LeverUp provides users full transparency where every position, metric, and protocol flow is on-chain and verifiable. Traders can access up to 1001x exposure across crypto majors and real-world assets, powered by an institution-grade risk engine.
LeverUp eliminates constraints usually associated with traditional LPs, and on this platform, open interest scales independently of TVL, liquidity depth, or passive providers, and traders engage directly with the protocol. 100 percent of protocol fees are captured and returned to traders, compounding network value where it belongs.
The platform’s native LVUSD settlement integrates a stablecoin layer, delivering stability, composability, and capital efficiency across the ecosystem. The DeFi platform’s uncapped market depth breaks liquidity ceilings compared to other platforms, enabling unprecedented capital efficiency and truly flexible open interest.
Additional information about LeverUp can be found at LeverUp.gitbook.io. Users can learn more about Testnet at app.leverup.xyz.
About LeverUp
LeverUp is an LP-free perpetuals exchange delivering uncapped open interest, 100% fee redistribution to traders, and leverage up to 1001x. With countless perpetual platforms on the market, LeverUp is a differentiator, offering more flexibility, native LVUSD settlement, uncapped market depth, and full transparency where nothing is hidden and nothing is off-chain. While others race to copy CEX perps—standalone chains and high-throughput order books—LeverUp chose a different lane.
On high-performance public chains, LeverUp’s LP-free design gives traders near-CEX execution and true DeFi composability—so protocols snap together like Lego and network effects compound. The company builds with the ecosystem, not against it.

It is also designed to support microtransactions and meme coin applications.
The Sonami ecosystem is expected to continue expanding to support the community’s evolving needs.
The Sonami platform is under continued development and has been noted for its growing presale participation. The project’s roadmap outlines further stages of technical and community growth following the conclusion of the presale phase.
Sonami Outlines Presale Roadmap and Token Listing Plans
Transparency has been identified as a key element for participants considering involvement in digital assets. Sonami has released details of its presale structure and subsequent development milestones.
In the initial phase, focused on presale distribution, the project reports ongoing activity and participation. Upon completion of the presale, tokens will be bridgeable to Layer 2, and $SNMI is planned to be listed on decentralized and centralized exchanges.
The third phase of the roadmap will introduce expanded utility for token holders, reflecting Sonami’s focus on speed and reduced network congestion.
Sonami Tokenomics Overview
The Sonami project plans a total supply of 82,999,999,999 $SNMI tokens to support continued ecosystem growth.
Token distribution has been outlined as follows: 15% is allocated for marketing, 20% for the treasury, and 25% for staking incentives and rewards. The remaining 40% is divided between development (30%) and exchange listings (10%) to ensure liquidity and ongoing technical advancement.
As of this release, Sonami reports raising over $2 million during the presale. The current token value is stated at $0.0019 per $SNMI.
About Sonami
The Sonami project is driven by a collective of seasoned blockchain developers and ecosystem architects with deep roots in the Solana ecosystem. The core team brings together talent from leading Web3 infrastructure projects and traditional fintech backgrounds, united by a shared vision of solving scalability challenges at the protocol level.
The Sonami Foundation’s roadmap is ambitious because the problem demands ambitious solutions. The team believes in building transparently, shipping consistently, and letting the technology speak for itself. The future of decentralized applications depends on solving scalability today, and Sonami is committed to being at the forefront of that solution.

Investment involves significant risk. Fund does not invest directly in the underlying stock. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund.
BLSG, BMNG, and GEMI are designed to provide investors with amplified returns (up and down) on innovative companies in the technology sector.
*Fee comparison source: Trackinsight.com, Universe of Leveraged and Inverse Single-Asset ETFs, as of 16 January 2025. All Averages are asset-weighted.
Newly launched Funds have risks associated with a limited operating history.
The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund is designed to be utilized only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged (2X) investment results, understand the risks associated with the use of leverage and are willing to monitor their portfolios frequently. The Fund is not intended to be used by, and is not appropriate for, investors who do not intend to actively monitor and manage their portfolios. For periods longer than a single day, the Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat, and it is possible that the Fund will lose money even if the Underlying Stock’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day. An investor could lose the full principal value of his/her investment within a single day.
Under the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses of the Fund, except for the fee paid to the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, interest charges on any borrowings, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution (12b-1) fees and expenses.
Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. Investing Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment held by the Fund to be more volatile than the market generally. The value of an individual security or particular type of security may be more volatile than the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. As of the date of this prospectus, in addition to the risks associated with the software industry, BMNR is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but not limited to, supply or manufacturing delays, increased material or labor costs or shortages, reduced demand for its products, product liability claims, and the ability to attract, hire and retain key employees or qualified personnel. The trading price of BMNR common stock historically has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. Additionally, a large proportion of BMNR’s common stock has been historically and may in the future be traded by short sellers which may put pressure on the supply and demand for its common stock, further influencing volatility in its market price. BMNR is a highly dynamic company, and its operations, including its products and services, may change.
Digital Assets Risk. The Fund(s) is subject to the digital assets risk due to its investment exposure to BMNR, GEMI as BMNR, GEMI holds digital assets in its corporate treasury. The trading prices of many digital assets, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, have experienced extreme volatility and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of Bitcoin or Ether, could have a material adverse effect on the Fund. Bitcoins and Ether are bearer instruments and the loss or destruction of a private key required to access a Bitcoin or Ether may be irreversible. If a private key is lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private key is accessible, the owner would be unable to access the Bitcoin or Ether corresponding to that private key and the private key will not be capable of being restored by the digital asset network. Digital asset networks and the software used to operate them are in the early stages of development. Given the recentness of the development of digital asset networks, Bitcoin or Ethereum may not function as intended and parties may be unwilling to use Bitcoin or Ethereum, which would dampen the growth, if any, of digital asset networks. Governance of many digital asset networks are by voluntary consensus and open competition. As a result, there may be a lack of consensus or clarity on the governance of the digital asset networks, which may stymie a digital asset network’s utility and ability to grow and face challenges.
There is a lack of consensus regarding the regulation of Bitcoin and Ethereum and their respective markets. As a result of the growth in the size of the Bitcoin or Ether markets, the U.S. Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies (including FinCEN, SEC, OCC, CFTC, FINRA, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Internal Revenue Service, state financial institution regulators, and others) have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and digital asset markets. Many of these state and federal agencies have brought enforcement actions or issued consumer advisories regarding the risks posed by digital assets to investors. Ongoing and future regulatory actions with respect to digital assets may alter, perhaps to a materially adverse extent, the nature of an investment in a digital asset.
Blockchain Risk. Blockchain companies may be adversely impacted by government regulations or economic conditions. Blockchain technology is new and its uses are in many cases untested or unclear. These companies may also have significant exposure to fluctuations in the spot prices of digital assets, particularly to the extent that demand for a company’s hardware or services may increase as the spot price of digital assets increase. Blockchain companies typically face intense competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence. In addition, many blockchain companies store sensitive consumer information and could be the target of cybersecurity attacks and other types of theft, which could have a negative impact on these companies. Access to a given blockchain may require a specific cryptographic key (in effect a string of characters granting unique access to initiate transactions related to specific digital assets) or set of keys, the theft, loss, or destruction of which, either by accident or as a result of the efforts of a third party, could irrevocably impair a claim to the digital assets stored on that blockchain. Many blockchain companies currently operate under less regulatory scrutiny than traditional financial services companies and banks, but there is significant risk that regulatory oversight could increase in the future. Higher levels of regulation could increase costs and adversely impact the current business models of some blockchain companies. For example, restrictions imposed by foreign governments, including China, on the use and mining of digital assets, may adversely impact blockchain companies and in turn the Fund. These companies could be negatively impacted by disruptions in service caused by hardware or software failure, or by interruptions or delays in service by third-party data center hosting facilities and maintenance providers. Blockchain companies involved in digital assets may face slow adoption rates and be subject to higher levels of regulatory scrutiny in the future, which could severely impact the viability of these companies. blockchain companies, especially smaller companies, tend to be more volatile than companies that do not rely heavily on technology. The customers and/or suppliers of blockchain companies may be concentrated in a particular country, region or industry. Any adverse event affecting one of these countries, regions or industries could have a negative impact on blockchain companies.
PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate. An investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost; current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns for performance for one year and under are cumulative, not annualized. Short term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. For additional information, see the fund(s) prospectus.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Investing in the Funds involves a high degree of risk. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Funds.
For periods longer than a single day, the Funds will lose money if GEMI, BLSH or BMNR respectively, has flat performance, and it is possible that the Funds will lose money even if GEMI, BLSH or BMNR’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day. An investor could lose the full principal value of his/her investment within a single day if the price of GEMI, BLSH or BMNR falls by more than 50% in one trading day.
An investor should carefully consider a Fund’s investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. A Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other information about Themes ETFs. To obtain a Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus call 886-584-3637. A Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with the Fund concentrating its investments in a particular industry, sector, or geographic region which can result in increased volatility. The use of derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps is subject to market risks that may cause their price to fluctuate over time. Risks of the Fund include effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk, Inverse Risk, Market Risk, Counterparty Risk, Rebalancing Risk, Intra-Day Investment Risk, Daily Index Correlation Risk, Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) Risk, and risks specific to the securities of the Underlying Stock and the sector in which it operates.

Paris, France, November 5th, 2025, Chainwire
Zama, the cryptography company behind the Zama Confidential Blockchain Protocol, today announced that it has acquired KKRT Labs, a pioneering research and development firm focused on scaling blockchains using Zero-Knowledge Proofs. This strategic acquisition strengthens Zama’s technical depth in blockchain scalability and validity (ZK) rollups, while accelerating its ability to deliver high-performance confidentiality to all public blockchains.
Unlocking the Next Phase of Scalable Onchain Confidentiality
KKRT Labs (also known as “Kakarot”) brings deep expertise in designing high-performance proving architectures and modular rollup systems for Ethereum-equivalent environments. Backed by investors such as Vitalik Buterin, Starkware, Lambda Class, and Stake Capital, Kakarot is recognized as one of the strongest ZK-rollup teams in the ecosystem, aiming at building the most scalable, efficient proving engine for Ethereum-compatible chains.
By joining forces, Zama and KKRT Labs will accelerate scalability efforts across the Zama Protocol, targeting 10,000+ confidential transactions per second on public chains such as Ethereum, Solana, and others. This new scale will open up critical financial applications on-chain, such as confidential stablecoin payments, confidential DeFi, or confidential on-chain asset management.
“KKRT Labs has assembled one of the best ZK-rollup teams in the world,” said Rand Hindi, CEO at Zama. “Together, we will scale faster and reach new levels of performance, bringing the Zama Protocol to tens of thousands of transactions per second.”
Integration, Growth, and Future Roadmap
Beyond technical alignment, Zama and KKRT Labs share a common philosophy: a belief in open-source innovation, confidentiality-first infrastructure, and democratizing access to advanced cryptographic technology. Both teams have been driven by the conviction that scalability and confidentiality are not trade-offs, but complementary building blocks for the next generation of decentralized systems.
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum and KKRT Labs investor, said: “Kakarot has played a significant role in advancing the state of cryptographic technologies in Ethereum, from their early pioneering work on ZK-EVMs to their work on client-side proving for privacy preservation. I look forward to seeing what the team’s talented researchers and developers will do next.”
Zama is committed to ensuring a seamless integration of KKRT Labs:
- Team retention & leadership: KKRT’s key engineers, operations, and leadership will transition fully into Zama.
- Roadmap alignment: KKRT’s ongoing initiatives will be integrated into Zama’s broader product and engineering roadmap with minimal disruption.
Eli Ben Sasson, co-founder of ZCash and CEO of StarkWare, said: “I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with the exceptional Kakarot team over the years and witnessing firsthand what they can build. They’ve achieved tremendous success by taking a simple PoC from some of our engineers three years ago and turning it into impressive technology. They have a deep understanding of what it takes to scale blockchains using advanced cryptography, and I’m thrilled to see them dedicating their expertise to scaling and privacy. I’m sure they will provide pivotal support to Zama’s ambitious scaling roadmap.”
“Joining Zama allows us to bring our expertise towards scaling one of the last major challenges in blockchain: confidentiality.” added Clément Walter, co-founder, KKRT Labs. “We’ve always believed scalability and confidentiality are essential to the adoption of blockchains, and by joining forces with Zama we can finally make high-throughput, low latency confidential on-chain finance a reality.”

Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has introduced a new limited-time referral initiative offering users a share of 80,000 USDT in rewards through copy trading. The campaign, which runs from November 1 to November 21, 2025 (UTC+8), provides exclusive benefits for both referrers and new participants.
The promotion encourages users to invite friends to Bitget’s copy trading platform via personalized referral links. For each valid referral, users can receive 5 USDT, with a maximum incentive of 100 USDT per inviter. A referral is deemed valid once the invited user registers through the referral link, completes at least one copy trade, and maintains a minimum balance of 50 USDT in their copy trading account for seven consecutive days.
In addition to the referral rewards, new users who join through a referral link and complete identity verification are eligible for a welcome package worth up to 80 USDT. The package includes four key components designed to support and encourage new traders:
- First order airdrop: A futures copy trading voucher worth up to 50 USDT upon first access to the copy trading page.
- Trading streak task: A 15 USDT voucher for users who copy trade for three out of seven days.
- First loss protection: Up to 10 USDT in trading vouchers to offset losses incurred within seven days of completing the streak task.
- Welcome gift: A 5 USDT voucher awarded after the campaign concludes for eligible new users.
Only users who complete identity verification and use their main account are eligible for this promotion. Incentives will be distributed within ten working days after the campaign ends. Bitget maintains a strict anti-abuse policy, and any form of manipulative behavior, such as wash trading or improperly matched orders, will result in disqualification.
This promotion reinforces Bitget’s strategic focus on accessible and rewarding copy trading experiences, expanding its user base while providing value-driven opportunities for new and existing community members.

GrantiX, the world’s first sustainable, multi-chain impact platform bridging traditional charities with blockchain donors, announced the upcoming launch of its mainnet ecosystem, uniting the $1.57 trillion impact-investing market with the transparency and scalability of Web3.
Built on Arbitrum and designed to be blockchain-agnostic, GrantiX enables users to fund and track real-world social impact projects directly on-chain. Its AI-driven ecosystem connects verified social entrepreneurs with crypto investors through an integrated DeFi, SocialFi, and gamified Learn-to-Earn model, turning charitable giving into measurable, revenue-positive impact.
“GrantiX is a natural progression for a world ready to take responsibility for its own quality of life,” said Dr. Konstantin Livshits, founder of GrantiX. “Blockchain finally gives us the tools to make philanthropy transparent, efficient, and scalable. GrantiX was born at the intersection of social entrepreneurship and investment, uniting people who create change with those who fund it.”
Unlike traditional nonprofits or hype-driven Web3 projects that depend on grants or token speculation, GrantiX sustains itself through DeFi and CeFi integrations, impact staking, and transaction-based donations. The platform supports round-up contributions, decentralized endowments, and tokenization advisory services for social enterprises, bringing sustainable funding to causes worldwide.
GrantiX’s technology has already processed more than 15,000 donations totaling $200,000, distributed $50,000 in grants to verified social entrepreneurs, and attracted more than 10,000 users organically without paid marketing. Its MVP is fully developed, with all smart contracts audited by CertiK, ensuring top-tier security ahead of its December mainnet launch.
“GrantiX’s success will become the best proof that Web3 and blockchain emerged not in vain,” said Anton Yanushkevich, CEO of GrantiX, an advisor with over 10 years of experience in Web3, and the founder of Cryptemic FZ-LLC. “We are creating a transparent, efficient, and decentralized infrastructure that channels global resources into measurable good, restoring faith in what technology can achieve for humanity.”
The platform’s AI Evaluation and Risk Management Layer adds an analytical backbone to its mission by assessing project efficiency, analyzing user behavior to match funding with causes likely to gain traction, and flagging early risks such as fund misallocation or reputational issues. This transparency-first approach ensures that every cent donated through GrantiX is traceable, verifiable, and aligned with impact performance.
With over $850,000 in angel funding secured, GrantiX’s ecosystem already includes more than 40 active projects addressing causes from disaster relief and mental health to child welfare, seniors, animals, and environmental sustainability. The next phase includes IDO and IEO presales, CEX listings, and a global marketing rollout backed by more than 50 Web3 partners and ambassadors.
Industry analysts view GrantiX as a key bridge between off-chain philanthropy, which exceeded $592 billion in 2024 (Giving USA), and emerging crypto philanthropy, which surpassed $1 billion in donations according to The Giving Block’s 2025 report. By combining transparency, AI analytics, and multi-chain accessibility, GrantiX brings new efficiency to a sector where traditional aid models are under strain amid declining government support.
The December launch positions GrantiX to redefine the intersection of blockchain, AI, and impact investing, creating what the team calls an “impact layer for Web3,” a model where doing good becomes part of digital utility itself.
