APIA, Samoa, Oct. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Phemex, the most efficient crypto exchange, today announced the launch of its Market Confidence Campaign, a global initiative designed to support traders during the current market downturn. Crypto markets have experienced broad declines across major assets in the past week, driven by macroeconomic uncertainty, deleveraging pressures, and weakening risk appetite. In response, Phemex is introducing practical incentives and cost-saving measures to help users maintain disciplined strategies and long-term confidence amid volatility.
Running from October 11 to October 31, 2025, the campaign supports both new and existing users through incentives that promote disciplined participation rather than emotional reactions to market conditions. The initiative is part of Phemex’s broader commitment to providing confidence in every market through practical tools, transparent processes, and responsible trading support.
The campaign includes:
- Zero-Fee Trading Slots — 5,000 limited spots available, covering trading fees for eligible users during the campaign period.
- 20% Deposit Cashback — Up to 200 USDT in bonus rewards for new users making qualifying deposits, available to the first 1,000 participants.
- Referral Rewards — Users can earn up to 50 USDT per valid referee by sharing the campaign with friends, encouraging community engagement and broader access.
“Market downturns can be defining moments for disciplined traders,” said Federico Variola, CEO of Phemex. “This campaign embodies our belief that true confidence comes from preparation and access — not speculation. Alongside trading incentives, we remain focused on empowering users with knowledge and perspective, helping them navigate volatility with clarity and discipline. Phemex builds tools for resilience — not just when markets rise, but especially when they are tested.”
This campaign follows a series of recent product enhancements from Phemex like Multi-Assets Mode, all designed to give users greater capital control. As market sentiment recalibrates, Phemex continues to reinforce its mission of building a future where crypto trading remains accessible, efficient, and grounded in trust.

Dreamcash announces custom Rolex Submariner giveaway for top referrer as decentralized perpetual trading reaches historic highs
Dreamcash, the next-generation crypto wealth platform, today announced it has surpassed 100,000 signups for its invite-only waitlist since launching earlier this year. To celebrate this milestone and build momentum toward its September launch, the company is unveiling an exclusive giveaway series rewarding the community’s most active evangelists.
The announcement comes as the decentralized perpetual derivatives (perp DEX) market experiences unprecedented growth. Hyperliquid recorded approximately $2.7 trillion in perpetuals trading volume in September 2025 with $86.6 million in protocol revenue, both the highest monthly figures since its launch.
“The perp DEX revolution is here, and Dreamcash is perfectly positioned to democratize access to these opportunities,” said Hubert Johnson, head of Marketing at Dreamcash. “With Hyperliquid processing billions daily and new entrants like Aster and Lighter rapidly gaining traction, we’re witnessing a fundamental transformation in how people trade derivatives. Our 100,000 signups validate that traders want simplified access to this explosive market.”
Giveaway Series Details
The first prize in the series is a custom Rolex Submariner featuring Dreamcash’s signature colors, awarded to the user who brings in the most referrals during the campaign period. This luxury timepiece represents just the beginning of a three-part giveaway series, with two additional high-value surprises to be revealed in the coming weeks.
The referral competition leverages Dreamcash’s existing points system, where users earn rewards for engagement and successfully inviting others to join the waitlist. Beyond the headline prizes, all participants continue accumulating points that will translate into benefits when the platform launches.
Important Notice. Dreamcash’s referral giveaway is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Rolex SA. The prize consists of a customised watch originally manufactured by Rolex, purchased independently by Dreamcash and modified (the Dreamcash Blue Custom Rolex). Once customised, the product is no longer covered by manufacturer warranty. The original manufacturer has no obligation to repair, service, or refund customised watches. Import duties, customs fees, or taxes may apply.
Full rules and conditions apply. User can read our Giveaway Terms & Conditions before entering.
Riding the Perp DEX Wave
The timing of Dreamcash’s launch is well aligned with current market developments. Perpetual trading volumes on decentralized exchanges surged to an all-time high of $70 billion on a single day in September, with newer platforms like Aster recording $36 billion in 24-hour trading volume. Aster, backed by YZi Labs and gaining attention from Binance co-founder CZ, has seen its token rise over 2,000% since launch.
Meanwhile, Lighter, a zk-powered perp DEX still in closed beta, recently surged past $2 billion in daily volume, offering innovative features like zero fees and allowing users to both earn yield and trade using the same capital. These developments signal a new era of competition and innovation in decentralized derivatives trading.
According to CoinGecko, perpetual trading volume on decentralized exchanges reached a new all-time high in Q3 2025, with the DEX/CEX volume ratio hitting a record 0.23. This shift toward decentralization creates massive opportunities for platforms like Dreamcash that can simplify access to these markets.
Simplifying Access to Complex Markets
Dreamcash’s current integration with Hyperliquid positions users to capitalize on this explosive growth. By combining AI-driven market analysis, automated yield strategies, and a mobile-first design, Dreamcash removes the technical barriers that have kept many investors from participating in the perp DEX revolution. Additionally, more DEXes may follow.
The platform’s approach eliminates traditional KYC friction for initial access, allowing users to begin building their crypto portfolios immediately. With delta-neutral strategies that generate yield regardless of market direction, users can benefit from the perp DEX boom while managing risk.
This giveaway series serves as a prelude to the platform’s official launch in 2025, when users will gain full access to Dreamcash’s suite of tools designed to democratize sophisticated trading strategies.
Users can join the waitlist and start earning referral points immediately at https://dreamcash.xyz. The referral leaderboard updates in real-time, allowing participants to track their progress toward winning the exclusive prizes.
About Dreamcash
Dreamcash is building the next generation of crypto wealth platforms, combining AI-powered insights, automated yield strategies, and frictionless user experience to democratize access to digital asset opportunities. The platform launches initially with Hyperliquid integration, positioned to capture value from the explosive growth in decentralized perpetual derivatives trading.

Fanable by Ethernal Labs, a Web3 marketplace for Pokémon, comic books, and digital collectibles, has successfully achieved $11.5 million in backing to accelerate growth and expand its ecosystem. Fanable – developed by Ethernal Labs – is backed by Michael Rubin (founder of Fanatics), Ripple, Steel Perlot, Polygon, Borderless, Morningstar, and others.
Alongside this milestone, Fanable is partnering with the Collect Foundation to launch a point farming campaign for the upcoming $COLLECT token, bringing new utility and community engagement to the collectibles economy.
Fanable has quickly become a hub for collectors and enthusiasts, with the app reaching over 20,000 sales transactions, growing at a 100% monthly rate, and offering a seamless way to buy, sell, and trade both physical and digital collectibles. The capital will fuel platform development, global expansion, and the introduction of Web3-native features that deepen the connection between fans and their collections.
Building the World’s Biggest Pokémon Ecosystem
The capital, in particular, is being used to fuel the growth of Fanable’s Pokémon ecosystem. In partnership with Brinks, anyone across the world can buy, sell, trade, and collect the most desirable Pokémon and other collectible cards, with both crypto and fiat (credit cards). Mass availability via the Fanable iOS App Store and Google Play Store apps, or the Fanable web app, makes the platform ready for the fastest adoption record for any collectibles product to date.
The $COLLECT token is designed to unlock community-driven rewards, trading incentives, and future governance opportunities within the Fanable ecosystem. With point farming going live now, early participants can earn rewards that will play a central role in the Collect Foundation’s upcoming token launch: points.fanable.io.
The point farming offers a fair, distributed opportunity to the community, offering far more stake in the ecosystem than even available to any VC. This is in line with the beliefs of the Web3 and collectibles communities.
“This is a major step forward to bridge the worlds of collectibles and Web3,” said Steve D’Agostino, CEO of Collect Foundation. “The launch of the $COLLECT token farming campaign is just the beginning of how we’re creating new value for collectors on Fanable.”
The $11.5M raise reflects growing confidence in Fanable’s vision to reimagine how fans engage with their favorite collectibles. By combining the nostalgia of Pokémon and trading cards with the innovation of blockchain, Fanable is pioneering the next chapter of fandom and digital ownership.

Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, today announced that it has officially secured the Virtual Asset Platform Operator License from the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Bybit becomes the first crypto exchange to obtain this full license from the SCA, marking a historic milestone in the nation’s vision to establish itself as a global digital asset hub. This licensing brings along with the full product capability of Bybit’s existing global products and services into compliance.
This symbolic milestone demonstrates Bybit’s assurance to users that it is committed to high standards of quality, product and service arising from rigorous compliance frameworks found not just in UAE but also globally. It also demonstrates Bybit’s long term global strategy of being locally enshrined and its commitment to bringing crypto to local markets.
Bybit initially received its In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the SCA in February 2025 with the help of the Blockchain Centre, Abu Dhabi, in navigating SCA’s robust framework. The full license demonstrates the regulator’s trust in Bybit’s robust security infrastructure, operational transparency, and rigorous compliance standards.
This achievement follows a series of regulatory milestones for Bybit in 2025 — including securing its MiCAR license in May and resuming full trading operations in India in September — as the exchange continues to expand its presence under a compliance-first roadmap across key global jurisdictions.
Ben Zhou, Co-founder and CEO of Bybit, said:
“Receiving the full Virtual Asset Platform Operator License from the SCA is a testament to Bybit’s unwavering commitment to building trust through compliance and transparency. The UAE has emerged as a global leader in digital asset regulation, and this recognition underscores the strength of our security and governance standards.
At Bybit, we see regulation as the foundation for sustainable growth. This milestone marks another step forward in our global regulatory roadmap — from MiCAR in Europe to India and now the UAE — as we continue to set new benchmarks for a secure and responsible digital asset ecosystem.”
Helen Liu, Co-CEO of Bybit, added:
“We sincerely thank the Securities and Commodities Authority for their trust and support throughout the licensing process. The SCA’s clear, robust, and well-structured regulatory framework provides a strong foundation for global exchanges like Bybit to operate with confidence and clarity. This achievement would not have been possible without the SCA’s forward-thinking approach to fostering innovation and compliance in the digital asset space. We look forward to deepening our collaboration as we bring more resources, products, and expertise to the UAE market.”
Bybit’s Upcoming Plan in UAE
Under the SCA’s Virtual Asset Platform Operator License, Bybit will offer regulated virtual asset trading, brokerage, custody, and fiat conversion services to both retail and institutional clients across the UAE.
The exchange plans to expand its local footprint by establishing a larger regional operations center in Abu Dhabi with over 500 employees across Abu Dhabi and Dubai, accelerating local hiring across compliance, operations, and customer service, and introducing new education and Web3 innovation programs in collaboration with local partners.
Bybit’s continued investment in talent, technology, and infrastructure reaffirms its long-term commitment to supporting the UAE’s ambition to become a global hub for digital assets and financial innovation.

We want to build a platform that allows people to use crypto in their daily lives, not just for trading. That’s how we bring Web3 to mainstream adoption, and we’re doing it without losing focus on what got us here: putting our users first.”

FLOKI, the community-driven cryptocurrency, has partnered with Water Wells for Africa (WWFA) to fund two new clean water wells in Malawi, a landlocked country in southeastern Africa where many rural communities still lack access to safe drinking water.
The initiative reflects FLOKI’s commitment to philanthropy, a core pillar of its project and demonstrates how digital assets can be used for direct, real-world impact. Notably, both wells were fully funded in FLOKI tokens, showing how crypto donations can fuel meaningful development efforts.
“At its core, charity is a fundamental pillar for FLOKI,” the team said. “Everyone deserves access to clean water, and through WWFA, we’re helping make that possible.”
Crypto for clean water
Since 1996, WWFA has installed over 500 wells across Africa, reaching remote villages and providing sustainable water access to thousands of people. Each well is designed for local maintenance, with repairable parts that can be sourced within the community, keeping the system sustainable long after installation.
WWFA has also been installing wells on school properties since 2020, helping students stay hydrated, healthy, and in school. The organization’s model focuses on community inclusion and training, ensuring local residents can maintain the infrastructure themselves.
The two new FLOKI-funded wells will serve rural communities in Milawi, southeastern Africa, where residents often walk miles daily for clean water.
Crypto-driven impact
This isn’t FLOKI’s first philanthropic initiative. FLOKI describes itself as “the people’s cryptocurrency,” has supported several charitable efforts, including education, food security, and disaster relief campaigns.
FLOKI said the partnership with WWFA underlines its broader goal of using blockchain for positive impact while building real-world utility for its ecosystem.
WWFA, meanwhile, welcomed the collaboration as a milestone showing that cryptocurrency donations can be transparent, borderless, and directly transformative.
“Clean water is the first step out of poverty,” WWFA said. “With FLOKI’s support, more communities will have that chance to thrive.”
