Bitcoin price steadies near $90K after ETF outflows; Coinbase, Strategy shares mixed premarket

Bitcoin price steadies near $90K after ETF outflows; Coinbase, Strategy shares mixed premarket

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 06:30 (EST) — Premarket Bitcoin steadied near $90,000 on Friday, edging higher in early U.S. trade, while crypto-linked stocks split in the premarket. Coinbase Global dipped 0.1% and Strategy rose 3.2%, with miners Marathon Digital up 3.7% and Riot Platforms down about 1%. The key near-term driver is still flows, not slogans. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs — funds that hold bitcoin and trade like stocks — saw net outflows of $486.1 million on Jan. 7 and $398.8 million on Jan. 8, led by BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC, Farside Investors data showed.

XRP price slips as spot ETF outflows break streak; U.S. jobs report in focus

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 17:18 EST — After-hours XRP was down 1.8% at $2.14 in late U.S. hours on Thursday, giving back part of this week’s rally as bitcoin and ether also slipped. U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) logged their first net outflow on Wednesday, with $40.8 million leaving the group, led by a $47.25 million redemption from 21Shares’ TOXR, according to data cited by Finviz. Rachael Lucas, a crypto analyst at BTC Markets, said the reversal looked like “profit-taking” after XRP jumped to about $2.40 from $1.80 in a week, while Min Jung, a research associate at

Bitcoin price hovers near $91,000 as ETF money turns; Strategy stock ticks up after MSCI call

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 17:13 EST — After-hours Bitcoin was last up 0.2% at $91,142 on Thursday, after sliding as low as $89,312 earlier in the session, and U.S.-listed crypto stocks finished mixed in extended trading. Strategy was up 3.2%, while Coinbase slipped 0.1%; miners Marathon Digital and Riot Platforms rose 3.7% and fell 1.0%, respectively. The market is trying to price two moving parts at once: whether bitcoin-treasury stocks stay anchored in major indexes and whether the ETF bid is still there. MSCI shelved a plan to exclude so-called digital asset treasury companies — operating firms that hold

BMNR stock rises as MSCI backs off crypto‑treasury index shakeup; BitMine vote looms

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 14:48 (EST) — Regular session Shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (BMNR) were up 3.1% at $31.30 in afternoon trading on Thursday, after swinging between $29.20 and $31.66. The move comes after MSCI dropped a plan to exclude so‑called digital‑asset treasury firms from its indexes. Reuters Crypto‑treasury firms — often called digital asset treasury companies, or DATCOs — have become a traded proxy for bitcoin and ether, the token used on the ethereum network, and index eligibility can matter because passive funds track those benchmarks. Owen Lau at Clear Street said MSCI’s move “removes a

XRP price slips after WisdomTree pulls SEC filing — and Friday’s jobs report looms

XRP price slips after WisdomTree pulls SEC filing — and Friday’s jobs report looms

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 14:34 EST — Regular session XRP fell on Thursday after WisdomTree asked U.S. regulators to pull its registration for a proposed XRP fund, a filing that traders read as a small but real check on the rush to wrap crypto in stock-market products. XRP was down about 1.8% at $2.14, after trading as low as $2.07 and as high as $2.19. SEC The filing matters because exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, have become the easiest on-ramp for large pools of capital that still won’t touch tokens directly. A withdrawal doesn’t settle anything on its own, but

Bitcoin price today steadies near $91,000 as Strategy stock climbs on MSCI index reprieve

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 14:11 EST — Regular session Bitcoin steadied on Thursday after an early dip, while shares of Strategy (MSTR) rose with other crypto-linked stocks as investors digested MSCI’s latest move on index eligibility. Bitcoin was up about 0.4% at $91,152, after touching $89,312 earlier in the session, while Strategy gained about 4.7% and Coinbase added about 0.6%. Marathon Digital rose about 3.8%, while Riot Platforms slipped about 0.5%. The moves matter because stocks like Strategy have become a stand-in for direct bitcoin exposure for investors who would rather trade equities than tokens. When bitcoin swings, these

Trump’s New $100 U.S. National Park Fee for Foreign Tourists Kicks In — and 10 States Race Ahead in Crypto

Trump’s New $100 U.S. National Park Fee for Foreign Tourists Kicks In — and 10 States Race Ahead in Crypto

WASHINGTON, Jan 8, 2026, 13:03 (EST) Foreign visitors entering some of the United States’ busiest national parks now face a new $100 per-person surcharge on top of standard entrance fees, according to the National Park Service. The fee applies to non-U.S. residents aged 16 and older at 11 parks, including Yosemite, Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon. National Park Service Why it matters is scale and timing. Those 11 parks drew about 23 million visits last year, and the new policy is already changing how gates work as staff check IDs and tour operators sort who pays what. The Park Service

Coinbase stock rises on BofA upgrade even as bitcoin slips toward $90,000

Coinbase stock rises on BofA upgrade even as bitcoin slips toward $90,000

NEW YORK, January 8, 2026, 13:16 EST — Regular session Coinbase Global shares were up 1.4% at $249.42 on Thursday after Bank of America upgraded the crypto exchange to “Buy,” giving the stock a company-specific boost in a market still tied to bitcoin’s mood swings. TipRanks The timing matters because Coinbase’s results still lean heavily on how much people trade crypto, and volumes can dry up fast when prices slide. This week’s pullback in bitcoin has put that link back on the screen. At the same time, investors have been watching whether Coinbase can turn itself into more of an

Bitcoin price today: BTC slips near $90,000 as ETF outflows weigh on crypto-linked stocks

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 10:23 (EST) — Regular session Bitcoin slipped on Thursday and kept U.S.-listed crypto-linked shares on the defensive in morning trade. The token was down about 0.9% at $90,380, after ranging between $91,640 and $89,312. Coinbase fell 0.2%, while Strategy slid 1.3% and BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF was down about 0.8%; miner Marathon rose 0.8% but Riot fell 1.6%. One immediate drag: fund flows. U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds — ETFs, products that trade like stocks — logged $486 million of net outflows on Wednesday, with BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC seeing the biggest withdrawals,

XRP price stock slides near $2 after first ETF outflows as U.S. jobs report nears

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 10:28 EST — Regular session XRP fell about 5% on Thursday to around $2.09, extending a pullback in major cryptocurrencies after a hot start to 2026. Trading volume over the past 24 hours was about $4.6 billion, CoinMarketCap data showed. CoinMarketCap The XRP price move mattered because one of the big props under the rally — steady demand for U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded funds — showed its first crack. Spot ETFs, which trade like stocks and aim to track XRP’s price, saw roughly $41 million of net outflows on Wednesday, according to SoSoValue data cited

Hyperscale Data (GPUS) stock jumps as company flags $369 mln in assets, touts Bitcoin war chest

Hyperscale Data (GPUS) stock jumps as company flags $369 mln in assets, touts Bitcoin war chest

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 08:14 EST — Premarket Hyperscale Data Inc shares rose about 38% in premarket trading on Thursday after the company published preliminary estimates of its year-end assets and pushed a planned cadence of balance-sheet updates. The stock was at $0.3604. The disclosure matters because Hyperscale Data has tried to anchor trading in its shares to what it says sits on the balance sheet — not just to near-term operating results. For a small stock tied to crypto prices and data-center buildouts, fresh numbers can become the catalyst. It also lands as bitcoin cools off after recent

New York, January 8, 2026, 08:03 EST — Premarket Shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) were down 1.2% at $30.01 in premarket trading on Thursday, after MSCI said it would not proceed with a proposal to exclude crypto-treasury companies from its indexes. BMNR slid 6.1% on Wednesday to close at $30.36, after a 3.1% drop a day earlier. StockAnalysis The MSCI decision matters for a small but loud corner of the market: listed firms that hold large piles of bitcoin or ether and often raise money by selling stock. Index inclusion can broaden ownership, but it also puts the spotlight on
