From Samsung bringing USDC transfers closer to everyday users to crypto companies continuing to build massive Bitcoin and Ethereum reserves, the past few days have been packed with major moves. Here are the stories you should know about.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan>Samsung prepares USDC transfers via Solana in Samsung Wallet\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Samsung is bringing USDC a step closer to everyday payments. The company has announced support for USDC on Solana in Samsung Wallet and Samsung Pay for users in the United States, with the launch expected in the final week of October 2026. The initiative could potentially reach up to 82 million Galaxy devices across the US, with a particular focus on cross-border transfers. Fiat on-ramp and off-ramp services are also expected to be built directly into the Wallet, making the process more seamless for users.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan>Tether explores the launch of a tenge-pegged stablecoin\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Tether is looking beyond its existing stablecoin lineup. On October 7, the company signed a memorandum of understanding with the National Bank of Kazakhstan and the administration of Alatau to explore the possibility of creating a stablecoin pegged to the Kazakhstani tenge. The parties will also look at using blockchain technology to tokenize other assets. For now, this is still a research initiative and preparation for a potential pilot project - not a launched token.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan>Bitmine moves closer to controlling 5% of Ethereum's supply\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Bitmine is getting closer to its ambitious Ethereum target. On October 5, the company announced the purchase of another 15,112 ETH, bringing its total reserves to 6,016,414 ETH - approximately 4.9% of Ethereum's entire supply. That puts Bitmine just a step away from its stated goal of accumulating 5% of ETH. The company also says that more than 5 million ETH in its reserves are currently being staked.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan>Strategy estimates nearly $21 billion increase in the value of its bitcoin holdings for the quarter\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Strategy's Bitcoin strategy continues to generate eye-catching numbers. The company reported an estimated $20.91 billion increase in the value of its digital asset holdings during Q3 2026. And the buying did not stop there: in just the first four days of October, Strategy acquired another 334 BTC for $28.7 million, taking its total holdings to a record 848,000 BTC. At the same time, the company allocated $176.3 million to repurchase its STRC preferred shares.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan>Metaplanet increases its bitcoin reserves to 44,000 BTC\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Metaplanet has reached another milestone, ending Q3 with 44,000 BTC after adding 1,000 BTC to its reserves. But the path to that figure was anything but straightforward. During the quarter, the Japanese company first sold 10,000 BTC for approximately $790 million, then bought back 11,000 BTC for around $950 million. Metaplanet explained that the move was designed to show creditors and rating agencies that its Bitcoin reserves can be rapidly converted into liquidity when needed.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Chr>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fexchange.pointpay.io\u002Ftrade\u002FPXP\u002FUSDT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>Happy trading at PointPay!\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>🔥 Buy PXP tokens on MEXC: \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3UhCgZn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>http:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3UhCgZn\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>🔥 Buy PXP tokens on Bitrue: \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3JEreHu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>https:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3JEreHu\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>🔥 Buy PXP tokens on WhiteBIT: \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3qJrjRH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>https:\u002F\u002Fbit.ly\u002F3qJrjRH\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>💰 Earn up to 1% yearly with PXP \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fexchange.pointpay.io\u002Fstaking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>staking\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>📖 Read an article about PointPay CEO and his professional vision: \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.abcmoney.co.uk\u002F2026\u002F01\u002Fvladimir-kardapoltsev-bridging-web3-vision-with-operational-reality\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cspan>https:\u002F\u002Fwww.abcmoney.co.uk\u002F2026\u002F01\u002Fvladimir-kardapoltsev-bridging-web3-vision-with-operational-reality\u002F\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan> \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>🏦 PointPay - all crypto services in one place!\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n","2026-11-11T11:48:37+00:00",[9],{"metaTitle":10,"metaDescription":11,"canonicalUrl":23,"og":30,"twitter":31,"publishedTime":15,"modifiedTime":27},{"title":10,"description":11,"image":14},{"title":10,"description":11,"image":14},[33,46,62],{"id":34,"uuid":35,"slug":36,"source":8,"language":9,"title":37,"excerpt":38,"readingTime":39,"featured":13,"featureImage":40,"featureImageAlt":37,"publishedAt":41,"author":42,"primaryTag":43,"tags":44},1003,"8249418e-d998-4b8a-b74a-129e42c9059f","top-5-crypto-news-of-the-week-01-08-november","Top 5 Crypto News of the Week!
