This latest U.S. appeals court ruling sets up a rift between federal courts on event contracts, suggesting the U.S. Supreme Court may need to settle the matter.

A high-stakes crypto player connected to 1win’s Global Crypto Ambassador network received a 1.749 million USDC payout following a seven-figure wager on Paris Saint-Germain against Aston Villa in the 2026 tUEFA Super Cup.
The payout was received in USDC via the Ethereum network. Both the original deposit and subsequent withdrawal are publicly traceable on-chain, providing independent confirmation of the movement of funds.
The player joined 1win through the network of one of the brand’s Global Crypto Ambassadors, following the recent launch of the 1win Global Crypto Ambassador program. The initiative was designed to build a worldwide network of crypto-native creators, community leaders and active Web3 participants, as well as to connect 1win with established crypto communities.
The latest result also follows another seven-figure bet placed on 1win earlier this summer. In July, Mia Khalifa received a total payout of $1.65 million after placing a $1 million bet on Spain to defeat Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
The two million-dollar wagers within weeks of each other highlight the growing presence of high-stakes players on the platform. The latest case also demonstrates the role of stablecoins in high-value iGaming transactions, with the full cycle from deposit to payout conducted in USDC and recorded on Ethereum.
The win comes as 1win continues expanding its presence among crypto-native audiences, combining its Global Crypto Ambassador program with an increasing focus on digital assets and Web3 communities.

eToro has become a strategic investor in Extended, an onchain perpetual futures exchange, and said the round begins a partnership with Zengo, the self-custody wallet eToro acquired earlier this year. Neither company disclosed the investment size.
EToro has become a strategic investor in Extended, an onchain perpetual futures exchange, and said the funding round marks the start of a partnership between Extended and Zengo, the self-custody wallet eToro acquired earlier this year, according to a post from Extended.
Extended said on X that eToro “is now a strategic investor” and that the partnership will focus on “expanding access to global financial markets through next-generation on-chain infrastructure,” describing it as a step toward “bridging traditional financial assets and decentralized trading environments.”
Neither eToro nor Extended disclosed the size of the investment in their own statements, and neither had published a dedicated press release on the deal as of publication. CoinDesk reported the round totaled $12.5 million.
Extended is a perpetuals decentralized exchange built on Starknet, founded by former Revolut employees including Ruslan Fakhrutdinov, the fintech’s former crypto head. According to Extended’s own documentation, the exchange supports more than 100 markets spanning crypto, equities, foreign exchange and commodities, the kind of cross-asset venue eToro said it wants to connect to a self-custody wallet.
The investment builds on eToro’s acquisition of Zengo, a self-custodial wallet provider, which the two companies announced in April in a deal Bloomberg and other outlets reported was worth roughly $70 million. In its own release, eToro said the Zengo deal was meant to “accelerate its strategy of connecting traditional finance with on-chain infrastructure,” and Zengo co-founder and CEO Ouriel Ohayon said joining eToro would let the wallet “expand access to self-custody and on-chain finance.” Pairing Zengo’s custody with Extended’s derivatives engine would let eToro offer onchain perpetuals to wallet users who keep control of their own assets.
The move places eToro alongside other retail brokerages pushing into onchain trading. Robinhood this week launched the public mainnet of Robinhood Chain, its own Arbitrum-based Layer 2 for financial services and real-world assets, as brokers race to build out onchain product suites and move beyond simple crypto spot trading.

Key points:
-
Bitcoin stabilizes into the weekend, but market sentiment is anything but relaxed about the outlook.
-
BTC price forecasts increasingly feature sub-$100,000 levels.
-
RSI signals still point to a rebound — something more likely if stocks head higher next week.
Bitcoin (BTC) clung to $107,000 on Saturday as traders braced for fresh lows next.
Bitcoin traders still doubt strength of $100,000
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed cooling BTC price volatility into the weekend.
This gave bulls some much-needed relief after a week of nasty surprises left BTC/USD down another 7%.
Now at its lowest levels in months, the pair was tipped for even lower levels in the short term amid a lack of buyer demand and major macroeconomic change.
“It all lines up nicely across the board for another wave down,” trader Crypto Tony wrote in an X post on the day.
“Bitcoin i see us dropping to $95,000, possibly testing the $91,000 region before we find a bottom.”
Crypto Tony described even the sub-$100,000 scenario as a “bullish” scenario.
Fellow trading account Daan Crypto Trades still saw calmer conditions lasting until the weekly candle close.
“BTC did a good job recovering some ground on Friday before the CME close. This makes it so we’re likely to stick around this ~$107K level during the weekend,” it told X followers.
The post flagged $105,000 as the key nearby support level to hold, with crypto due for a more significant rebound if stocks led the way next week.
To that extent, the outlook was promising — the S&P 500 closed at 6,664 on Friday, having recovered around half of its losses from the week prior.
News that US President Donald Trump did not expect higher tariffs on China to last helped equities stabilize, while gold came off its latest all-time highs.
Can RSI deliver a BTC price bounce?
As Cointelegraph reported, another encouraging sign for Bitcoin came in the form of relative strength index (RSI) values.

With daily RSI at its lowest since April, when BTC/USD fell to $75,000, the four-hour chart showed a clear bullish divergence developing.
As price made new local lows, RSI sought a higher low, indicating that sell-side pressure was declining below $110,000.
This led some to point out a conflict between bullish leading indicator data and overly bearish market sentiment.
Interesting, $BTC has confirmed a bullish divergence on the 6H & 8H and on 12H timeframe building on oversold RSI datapoints while sentiment is as depressed as Ive ever seen 🤔 pic.twitter.com/imvSXgSgsh
