BTC unfazed by Trump tariff news; DOGE, SOL, ADA lead modest bounce

Bitcoin BTC$67,702.26 brushed aside a volatile round of U.S. tariff headlines on Friday, inching toward $68,000 and altcoins modestly bouncing.

The day began with the U.S. Supreme Court ruling President Donald Trump’s global tariff rollout illegal. The decision did not clarify what should happen to tariff revenue already collected, and it doesn’t necessarily spell the end of Trump’s trade agenda, with multiple legal and executive avenues still available.

By the afternoon, President Trump announced an additional 10% global tariff to be rolled out under Section 122 for roughly five months, effective in three days.

The fresh levy, imposed on top of existing tariffs, barely dented sentiment.

Risk assets, including crypto, pushed modestly higher through the session. The broad-market CoinDesk 20 Index gained 2.5% over the past 24 hours, with BNB, DOGE$0.1005, ADA$0.2836 and Solana (SOL) outperforming with 3%-4% advances. Bitcoin was recently trading just below $68,000.

Meanwhile, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 climbed 0.9% and 0.7%, respectively. Among crypto-linked stocks, exchange Coinbase (COIN), stablecoin issuer Circle (CRCL) and bitcoin treasury firm Strategy (MSTR) rose more than 2%. Bitcoin miners tied to AI infrastructure buildouts underperformed, with Riot Platforms (RIOT), Cipher Mining (CIFR), IREN and TeraWulf (WULF) falling 3%-6%.

Cryptos to stay rangebound

“We have seen a small rally for risk assets post-tariffs news as it leads into a narrative that tariffs are damaging for the macro environment,” said Paul Howard, director at trading firm Wincent.

Still, conviction remains light that prices could break out to the upside from the current tight range. “Volumes, however, remain muted and we can expect crypto to maintain range bound trading for the time being” barring any “macro or geopolitical shocks coming,” Howard added.

A key potential macro risk could be Trump ordering strikes against Iran over the next few days, following the significant military buildup in the region for weeks now.

Crypto whale loses $6M to sneaky phishing scheme targeting staked Ethereum

Crypto whale loses $6M to sneaky phishing scheme targeting staked Ethereum

The post Crypto whale loses $6M to sneaky phishing scheme targeting staked Ethereum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A crypto whale lost more than $6 million in staked Ethereum (stETH) and Aave-wrapped Bitcoin (aEthWBTC) after approving malicious signatures in a phishing scheme on Sept. 18, according to blockchain security firm Scam Sniffer. According to the firm, the attackers disguised their move as a routine wallet confirmation through “Permit” signatures, which tricked the victim into authorizing fund transfers without triggering obvious red flags. Yu Xian, founder of blockchain security company SlowMist, noted that the victim did not recognize the danger because the transaction required no gas fees. He wrote: “From the victim’s perspective, he just clicked a few times to confirm the wallet’s pop-up signature requests, didn’t spend a single penny of gas, and $6.28 million was gone.” How Permit exploits work Permit approvals were originally designed to simplify token transfers. Instead of submitting an on-chain approval and paying fees, a user can sign an off-chain message authorizing a spender. That efficiency, however, has created a new attack surface for malicious players. Once a user signs such a permit, attackers can combine two functions—Permit and TransferFrom—to drain assets directly. Because the authorization takes place off-chain, wallet dashboards show no unusual activity until the funds move. As a result, the assets are gone when the approval executes on-chain, and tokens are redirected to the attacker’s wallet. This loophole has made permit exploits increasingly attractive for malicious actors, who can siphon millions without needing complex hacks or high-cost gas wars. Phishing losses The latest theft highlights a wider trend of escalating phishing campaigns. Scam Sniffer reported that in August alone, attackers stole $12.17 million from more than 15,200 victims. That figure represented a 72% jump in losses compared with July. According to the firm, the most significant share of August’s damages came from three large accounts that accounted for nearly half…
