Tezos news

Mid‑September crypto markets have eased with most tokens rebounding after a prolonged dip. Flow (FLOW) trades around $0.413, just above its $0.412 support, and a rising RSI paired with the Forte protocol integration suggests a possible climb toward $0.436, yet a break below $0.412 could drop the price to $0.395. Sky (SKY), formerly Maker, is at $0.0748 and holds above its $0.0746 support; the MKR‑to‑SKY conversion deadline could lift demand to $0.0838, but failure to hold could push it to $0.0693. Tezos (XTZ) sits at $0.766 after missing a $0.779 support level, but a Golden Cross and the September 19 Seoul protocol upgrade may drive the token past $0.779 toward $0.818, whereas weak sentiment could pull it back to $0.737. Overall, each altcoin’s short‑term upside depends on key resistance levels and forthcoming catalysts.

Arthur Breitman, co‑founder of Tezos, is steering the layer‑one network toward the real‑world asset (RWA) arena by launching uranium.io, the first platform to tokenise physical uranium for on‑chain ownership. The move comes after Tezos’ earlier pivot from being an “Ethereum killer” to focusing on decentralised governance, a reputation it hopes will attract investors in a hedging commodity that many see as key to future nuclear energy and energy security. Breitman explains that the platform’s strength lies in its on‑chain, self‑amending design that keeps the network fully decentralised while enabling large‑scale roll‑ups such as the upcoming Tezos X, which promises support for JavaScript and Python developers. He remains cautious but optimistic, noting that successful adoption of tokenised uranium could trigger a Tezos comeback, while a failure would simply prompt the network to evolve again. The project has already drawn attention from Token2049 attendees, highlighting the industry’s growing appetite for tangible, tokenised assets.

Tezos has announced Uranium.io, a decentralized application built on the Tezos blockchain that will allow users to trade uranium. The platform partners with Curzon Uranium, which handled over $1 billion in uranium trades, and Archax, the UK’s first registered cryptocurrency exchange. By tokenizing the commodity and using smart contracts, the DApp aims to give retail investors access to uranium that traditionally required institutional capital and complex international banking arrangements. Physical uranium will be stored as Triuranium octoxide at a regulated depository owned by Cameco, ensuring custody and regulatory compliance. The launch comes amid growing demand for nuclear power as a low‑emission energy source for AI and other data‑intensive workloads, positioning the marketplace as a potential model for other commodity tokenizations.

Tezos’ native token, XTZ, surged 38 % in the last 24 hours to a seven‑month high of roughly $1.13, making it the market’s top gainer. The rally was buoyed by Everstake’s upcoming support for the coin and a Q3 2024 Messari report that highlighted rising transaction volume and validator activity, but it has also attracted profit‑taking. Exchange inflows reached $2.22 million— the largest since January—indicating many holders are moving XTZ to exchanges, which could exert downward pressure. Technical analysis shows an overbought RSI of 74.26, reinforcing the likelihood of a correction. If buying momentum falters, the token might fall past the $1.07 support to around $0.97, a 14 % dip from its current level.

Tezos co‑founder Kathleen Breitman told Web Summit that Bitcoin's recent price climb signals growing regulatory certainty in major markets such as the United States. Breitman said that reduced ambiguity makes it easier for projects to pair real‑world assets with crypto and spur the rise of ETFs, prediction markets, stablecoins, and mainstream gaming. She noted that meme coins are an extension of NFTs that build communities, creating a peer‑to‑peer, stateless nation. Breitman warned that crypto has been over‑capitalized for five to six years, leading to speculative fervor that eclipsed genuine economic value. Comparing the industry to the 19th‑century railroad boom, she said the lack of standardization among competing projects fuels the excess. She hopes that clearer regulations will attract serious players and improve wallet infrastructure as the U.S. government’s implicit support is seen as a certificate of legitimacy.

CoinGecko’s latest report on proof‑of‑stake blockchains ranks staking yields among the largest PoS networks, highlighting Cosmos, Polkadot and Tezos as the only projects offering returns above 10%. The analysis examines yield levels, staking ratios, and network functionality, noting that Cosmos currently delivers the highest yield, partly because more than half of its circulating ATOM supply is staked and the network supports projects like the first MiCA‑compliant stablecoin. Polkadot also prioritizes high yields, while Tezos—one of the oldest PoS protocols—emphasises user experience and a loyal base. The study remarks that design factors such as security, speed and token economics shape rewards, but similar yields can arise from different staking ratios, as seen with Ethereum and Sui. Ultimately, no single metric guarantees the best long‑term return for investors.
