BNB Chain has activated the Jenner hard fork on the BNB Smart Chain testnet. Its Payment Lane feature reserves 5% of each block’s gas limit for eligible payment transactions during congestion, with governance able to raise the share to 10% and approve payment contracts. The reserved capacity is unavailable to general transactions, even when idle. Eligible payments are not guaranteed inclusion and still pay fees. The Jenner hard fork also adds millisecond-level timestamps for smart contracts and functionality for the CAS20 asset standard. Mainnet deployment was previously targeted for late November. For BNB traders, this remains a testnet infrastructure upgrade; the market impact will depend on mainnet rollout and real-world use.

US spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $176 million on Tuesday and $137 million on Wednesday, extending their inflow streak to three days. The funds attracted about $424 million over the period, recovering from nearly $774 million in outflows late last week and bringing October net inflows to $111 million. The renewed Bitcoin ETF demand suggests institutional buying has returned, although Bitcoin fell about 1% in 24 hours to $79,848. The Federal Reserve held rates at 3.75% to 4%, while Chair Kevin Warsh said inflation remained above the 2% target. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index stayed neutral at 51. Ether ETFs diverged, recording about $149 million in outflows on Monday and Tuesday and a further $21 million on Wednesday, taking October net outflows to $1.35 billion. Ether slipped 1.7% to $2,310, leaving crypto market sentiment mixed despite the Bitcoin ETF inflows.

Bitcoin is on track for its weakest October since 2020, trading near $80,800 compared with September’s close of about $83,567. That leaves Bitcoin down roughly 4% this month, despite October’s historical average gain of 18.1% since 2020. CryptoQuant reported that the Coinbase Premium stayed negative throughout October, averaging -0.093 and reaching about -0.146, its lowest level since late June. The readings suggest weaker US spot demand relative to offshore exchanges. CryptoQuant’s Bull Score Index also fell from 90 to 60, although six of its ten indicators remained bullish; a score below 50 would signal a clearer shift in conditions. Short-term holders have less unrealized profit to cushion losses: Bitcoin was 8.1% above the realized price for coins held one to three months on October 26, down from 33.4% on September 22. Traders are watching the Federal Reserve’s policy decision and comments for clues about rates and risk appetite. A softer tone could support a rebound, while a more cautious outlook may add pressure, but neither guarantees Bitcoin’s next move.

An on-chain monitored trading address with cumulative profits of about $30.4 million closed an XYZ100 short position worth roughly $3.82 million, then opened a new XYZ100 short worth about $3.69 million. The position data was reported by Odaily on 29 October 2026. The address is 0xfc667adba8d4837586078f4fdcdc29804337ca06. The renewed XYZ100 short indicates that this trader is maintaining a bearish position on the instrument, but a single address’s trades do not establish a broader market trend. Traders may monitor XYZ100 price action and subsequent position changes for further signals.

Strive bought 6,182 BTC for about $511.4 million between October 17 and 23, its largest Bitcoin purchase to date. The SEC filing put the average all-in price at $82,732 per BTC, raising the company’s holdings from 36,818 to 43,000 BTC. That follows a rapid October expansion from 28,000 BTC at September’s end. Strive reported $504.4 million in cash and cash equivalents on October 23, up $186.9 million in a week, while its total Bitcoin holdings had cost about $3.8 billion at an average of roughly $87,785 per BTC. Bitcoin was trading near $81,000, below that average cost. Strive also announced a $1 billion at-the-market programme for its 15% Series A Perpetual SATS preferred stock, alongside reported preferred-stock fundraising. However, disclosures do not establish that these financing measures funded the Bitcoin purchase. The acquisition adds to corporate Bitcoin demand, but price volatility, financing costs and potential dilution remain risks.

The TCW MetWest Investment Grade Credit Fund I-Class fell 2.57% net of fees in the third quarter of 2026, underperforming the Bloomberg Intermediate Credit Index by about 32 basis points. The TCW MetWest fund faced pressure as rising Treasury yields weighed on fixed-income markets. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index declined 3.5%, while Treasuries fell 3.0% during the quarter. Market themes from the second quarter continued, with Middle East tensions also affecting energy markets. The article provides limited detail on the fund’s positioning or the outlook for interest rates.

Alphabet’s third-quarter 2026 revenue rose 25% year over year to $127.6 billion, narrowly missing analysts’ expectations. Operating profit increased about 30% to $40.6 billion, but net income fell 25% to $26.2 billion. Adjusted earnings per share of $2.67 also missed forecasts, partly reflecting an $8.7 billion loss on equity investments that reduced GAAP EPS by about $0.55. Google Cloud was the standout in the Alphabet earnings report: revenue more than doubled to $30.7 billion, with an operating margin of about 36.2%, as demand for AI infrastructure and services grew. Search and other revenue rose 12% to $63.4 billion, while YouTube advertising increased about 9%. Advertising still accounts for roughly 64% of total revenue, keeping attention on the pace of growth in Google’s core business. Spending remains a key concern. Alphabet generated $42.3 billion in operating cash flow but spent $51.4 billion on property and equipment, leaving free cash flow at about negative $9.1 billion, compared with a $5.9 billion outflow in the previous quarter. The company maintained its 2026 capital expenditure forecast of $195 billion to $205 billion and signalled that investment could rise further in 2027. Gemini’s reported one billion users show broad reach, but do not establish revenue or profitability. Alphabet shares fell nearly 10% in after-hours trading at one reported point. For traders, the central question is whether AI-led cloud growth can offset slower search growth and rising infrastructure costs. The results may also shape broader tech-sector sentiment, though they do not directly signal a change in cryptocurrency fundamentals.

BlackRock has filed to launch the iShares Bitcoin Managed Protection ETF (PBIT), an actively managed Bitcoin ETF that would use options linked to its IBIT fund rather than hold Bitcoin or IBIT shares directly. The filing does not set a launch date; it could become effective around 2 January 2027, but that would not necessarily mean trading starts then. Fees and the listing venue also remain undisclosed. PBIT would combine fixed-income assets with three staggered options tranches. Each tranche aims to limit its initial maximum loss to about 10%, excluding fees, by buying in-the-money calls and selling calls at higher strike prices. The sold calls cap potential gains. The 10% figure is not a fund-wide loss limit or a guarantee: overlapping tranches, market conditions and option terms mean the portfolio has no fixed protection floor. Cash, money-market funds, short-term Treasuries and investment-grade bonds are also planned. BNY Mellon is named for custody and administration. PBIT would be BlackRock’s third Bitcoin-related ETF filing, after spot Bitcoin ETF IBIT and Bitcoin Premium Income ETF BITA, which sells calls to generate income. The strategy may interest investors seeking managed downside exposure, but the filing itself does not create immediate Bitcoin demand, and investors would surrender gains above the options’ caps.

Three AI chatbots see Cardano’s ADA as more likely than Pi Network’s PI to outperform in Q4 2026. Gemini cited ADA’s broad exchange availability, deeper liquidity and lower perceived risk. It warned that PI’s token unlocks could add selling pressure, particularly given thin trading liquidity and limited demand. Gemini identified roughly $0.070 as a potential PI support level and said a break could leave the token vulnerable to a move towards $0.05. Perplexity pointed to Cardano’s planned Dijkstra hard fork, scheduled for December 2026, as a possible catalyst. The upgrade aims to increase transaction throughput, though its market effect will depend on delivery and whether it drives greater network use. ChatGPT also favored ADA for sustained performance but said PI could see a short-term, catalyst-driven surge. It highlighted Pi Network’s first Ecosystem Summit, scheduled for 17–19 November, where platform updates and developer demonstrations could be followed by announcements on ecosystem progress or partnerships. These are chatbot forecasts, not guarantees of future price performance.

Tokenized stocks reached a combined market value of $4.63 billion on Oct. 28, 2026, according to Token Terminal. The market began 2026 below $1 billion and surpassed $3 billion in early September. Its current size matches the stablecoin market in March 2020, although stablecoins have since grown to about $297 billion—a roughly 64-fold increase. The tokenized stocks sector is highly concentrated: Binance’s bStocks, Ondo Global Markets and Backed Finance’s xStocks account for about 81% of the market. BNB Chain hosts the largest share, estimated at 30% to 47%, followed by Ethereum and Solana. Tokenized exchange-traded funds represent the largest asset category, worth between $700 million and $1.1 billion. The comparison with stablecoins highlights potential growth but does not guarantee a similar trajectory. For traders, issuer concentration, custody and redemption arrangements, regulatory treatment, and shifting blockchain market shares remain key risks to monitor.

Kalshi and its co-founders face 14 criminal charges in Utah, including 13 felonies and one misdemeanor, over alleged illegal gambling promotion. The case follows an undercover investigation in which a state agent made 12 sports trades on Kalshi, staking $114.87 and losing $25.10. Kalshi says its sports event contracts are federally regulated derivatives, not gambling; Utah argues they violate state gambling laws. The criminal case follows Utah’s civil lawsuit seeking to block Kalshi from operating in the state and recover fees allegedly collected from local users. The complaint estimates those fees at up to about $61 million. A federal judge ruled in August that Utah’s gambling laws apply to Kalshi contracts, and an appeals court declined to pause that ruling. The dispute has escalated into a federal-state conflict: the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the US Department of Justice have challenged Utah, arguing federal commodities law preempts state gambling restrictions on federally regulated contracts. The Kalshi case could affect the platform’s access to state markets and set a precedent for other prediction markets. Traders will be watching the court proceedings and any further state enforcement for signals about regulatory risk across the sector.

A guide warns crypto users to verify anyone claiming to represent an exchange, recruiter or business before sharing information, clicking links or sending funds. It cites FTC data showing $3.5 billion in reported losses to imposter scams in 2025, including nearly $1 billion involving people posing as businesses. The FBI’s IC3 said crypto-related crime losses reached $11.4 billion that year. Recommended crypto scam checks include contacting the company through its official website, using exchange verification tools, checking email domains and SPF, DKIM and DMARC results, and confirming identities through company channels. Traders should also inspect links and domain registration dates, and avoid treating social media profiles or video calls as proof. Never share a seed phrase, password or one-time code, install unsolicited software, grant remote access, or move assets to a supposed “safe” wallet. The article advises stopping contact and securing accounts if a user has already engaged with a suspected scam.

Investor Rick says frontier AI companies may ultimately earn more by delivering scientific and commercial outcomes than by selling subscriptions or API tokens. He argues that conventional ARR metrics may therefore fail to capture AI’s long-term value, while the development of AI for Science could create opportunities in drug discovery, materials and energy. Rick’s AI investment preferences are storage, chips, biotechnology and semiconductor equipment. He says he has sold most of his NVIDIA shares, citing competition around chip design, and favors businesses with manufacturing capacity, customer qualification requirements and other time-based barriers. He remains optimistic about memory suppliers and sees potential value in neocloud firms’ contracted power capacity. He also warns that heavy AI infrastructure spending could keep long-term interest rates high, pressuring real estate and emerging markets. On crypto, Rick is bullish over the long term on an agent-based economy using crypto-native payments, but says he has sold most of his Bitcoin (BTC). He cites uncertainty about whether AI could accelerate advances in mathematics, cryptography and quantum computing, potentially increasing concerns about future security. He does not claim Bitcoin is about to be cracked. His comments are an investor’s view, not evidence of an active cryptographic vulnerability.

Beijing’s Haidian District market regulator has fined a technology company more than 930,000 yuan in total in the city’s first case involving the use of blockchain and virtual currencies to assist a pyramid scheme. The company, an outsourced service provider for an unnamed public blockchain, supported its operations, marketing, promotion, exchange links and maintenance. The chain’s “Atomic Plan” and “Hathaway Plan” rewarded participants for recruiting more people and required them to invest funds to qualify. Authorities said the company continued providing technical and promotional support, as well as maintaining virtual currency trading channels, despite being expected to know about the scheme. The case highlights regulatory scrutiny of blockchain services and virtual currency channels used to support pyramid schemes.

Russia is preparing a common crypto investor testing standard for regulated platforms, with brokers potentially starting client assessments by late November. NAUFOR says the standards have been finalised, while the draft was submitted to a Bank of Russia committee for review. Test results are expected to be recognised across licensed platforms using consistent procedures. Earlier draft proposals outlined separate rules for qualified and nonqualified investors. Retail investors would take a basic test and face a proposed annual purchase limit of 300,000 rubles per intermediary for approved, highly liquid crypto assets. Qualified investors would have broader access without an equivalent cap, but would still need to demonstrate knowledge of the risks. Bitcoin, Ether and USDT were among the assets proposed for regulated trading. The latest announcement does not confirm test content or how testing will affect access to crypto assets. NAUFOR is also developing a separate test for digital financial assets; the existing 600,000-ruble annual limit for certain nonqualified investors remains unchanged.

The Federal Reserve held its federal funds target range at 3.75%–4.00% in a 10–2 vote on October 28. Two officials dissented in favor of a 25-basis-point rate increase. The Fed upgraded its assessment of economic activity but said inflation remains elevated. US stocks rose for a third consecutive session, with the S&P 500 up 0.28%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 0.19% and the Nasdaq Composite up about 0.27%. After earnings, Microsoft shares gained more than 3% in after-hours trading, supported by 48% year-on-year Azure growth and free cash flow of about $18.6 billion. Alphabet shares fell nearly 10% at one point. Its search advertising growth missed expectations, while higher AI infrastructure spending weighed on cash flow, which was negative $9.07 billion for the quarter. The contrasting reactions show that investors are scrutinizing AI investment returns, earnings quality and cash generation—not just interest rates or revenue growth. The Fed rate hold removes one immediate source of uncertainty, but future inflation and economic data will shape rate expectations. Treasury yields and company cash flows remain important factors for technology valuations. For crypto traders, the policy decision may affect liquidity and risk appetite, but it does not determine Bitcoin’s direction on its own.

Marvell is reportedly in advanced talks to acquire optical-components maker Lumentum, potentially in a deal worth $90 billion to $100 billion. An agreement could be announced as soon as early November, but talks remain unconfirmed and may still be delayed or fall through. Marvell’s potential Lumentum deal would combine Lumentum’s lasers and indium phosphide manufacturing capacity with Marvell’s optical DSP and custom-chip businesses, positioning the companies to meet rising AI data-centre demand for high-speed optical connections as copper links approach practical limits. Lumentum has said some capacity is booked through early 2029 and demand for key products may outstrip supply. Shares initially moved sharply after reports emerged; later trading saw Marvell fall more than 8% and Lumentum rise about 9%, while Coherent also gained. Investors are weighing the strategic benefits against the likely high price, potential dilution and debt, and pressure on Marvell’s margins. Some customers could shift orders to Coherent to preserve supplier choice. The news concerns semiconductor and AI infrastructure rather than cryptocurrency directly, so any crypto-market effect is likely to be indirect and limited.

Sub-Saharan Africa’s crypto economy grew 13.4% to $101 billion between July 2025 and June 2026, making it the fastest-growing region worldwide, according to Chainalysis. The Sub-Saharan Africa crypto market is being driven by practical demand for remittances, cross-border business payments, and access to foreign-currency value. South Africa’s crypto activity rose 52% to $39.3 billion, while Nigeria recorded $38.1 billion, down 3%. Together, the countries accounted for more than three-quarters of regional activity. Ghana grew 80% to $5.1 billion, and Senegal surged 215% to $2.3 billion. Stablecoins are gaining ground as a payment and savings tool. The value of stablecoins received through peer-to-peer channels climbed more than sixfold, from $2.3 billion in 2022 to $14.6 billion in 2026. Personal wallets accounted for 32.3% of regional crypto value received, the highest share globally. Intra-regional crypto payment corridors nearly doubled to 152, while transaction volume more than tripled to $116.5 million. The report also highlights differences in local markets: South Africa saw rising business-like payments and is emerging as a regional crypto hub, while Nigeria’s domestic exchanges expanded and Bitcoin remained prominent in smaller peer-to-peer transfers. Chainalysis says regulatory clarity and integration with banks and existing payment systems will be important to sustaining Sub-Saharan Africa crypto growth.

Rosatom is in preliminary talks with US counterparts about using small modular reactors (SMRs) and microreactors to power AI data centers. Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev raised the idea on 16 October 2026, and Rosatom chief executive Alexey Likhachev confirmed the discussions on 29 October. The talks remain exploratory: no US partners, contracts, sites, funding or timeline have been announced. US sanctions, payment restrictions and regulatory complexity are significant obstacles. Rosatom says it has experience with small reactors and nuclear-powered data centers. Its operating units include two 35 MW reactors commissioned in 2020, while its domestic microreactor designs are rated at 5–50 MWe. The company aims to capture 15–20% of the global SMR market by 2030. The Rosatom-US talks reflect growing demand for reliable electricity to support AI computing, but do not yet represent a confirmed project. For crypto traders, the news is not a direct catalyst for any cryptocurrency; its relevance is indirect, reflecting broader energy needs across digital infrastructure.

Ethereum spot ETFs saw $60.22 million in net outflows on 27 October, followed by a further $21.41 million outflow on 28 October, extending the outflow streak to three days. BlackRock’s ETHA recorded the largest daily outflow on both days, while Fidelity’s FETH and Grayscale’s Ethereum Mini Trust (ETH) attracted inflows. On 28 October, FETH added $18.78 million and the Mini Trust $3.62 million, against $44.83 million in outflows from ETHA. Total net assets rose from $14.18 billion to $14.27 billion, or 4.95% of Ethereum’s market capitalisation. Cumulative net inflows eased from $12.57 billion to $12.55 billion. The latest Ethereum ETF flows suggest near-term selling pressure, although the sizable accumulated inflows indicate that institutional exposure remains significant.

Today’s crypto market news highlights opposing supply and trading signals. Hyperliquid permanently destroyed 49.87 million HYPE, nearly 5% of its maximum supply, a move that reduces token supply. BlackRock transferred nearly $200 million in ETH to Coinbase over two days, while an Ethereum early adopter deposited all 2,119 ETH held in a dormant wallet to Coinbase; neither transfer confirms an immediate sale. Bitcoin faces the expiry of $11 billion in options, with US midterm elections cited as another potential source of volatility. A whale also sold 1.02 million SOL over five days, worth about $104 million. Elsewhere, Australia’s regulator said no prediction-market operators had applied for licences, and Polymarket has been blocked in the country. The crypto market news presents mixed signals: token supply reduction may support HYPE, while large exchange transfers, SOL selling and options expiry could raise volatility.

Stellar has launched Project Thruput, a new execution model now running on FutureNet. Early benchmark tests reported that Project Thruput processed up to 7.02 million payments per second by scaling across multiple machines. The report did not provide further details on the testing methodology or real-world performance, so the figure should be treated as an early benchmark rather than a measure of live network capacity.

Indian trading platform Mochatrade has raised $5.56 million to build a UPI-funded platform for perpetual contracts linked to U.S. stocks. CoinFund led the $4.87 million seed round, with Coinbase Ventures and Zero Knowledge Ventures’ Nicky Montana participating. The total includes $690,000 previously raised from Y Combinator and Pioneer Fund; Y Combinator’s $500,000 investment was paid in USDC on Base. Mochatrade offers leveraged derivatives—not direct share ownership—tied to more than 50 U.S. stocks, including Nvidia, Tesla, Apple and Meta, as well as indices, commodities and crypto assets. Users can deposit and withdraw rupees through UPI, trade with up to 50x leverage, and use a shared-margin account. The company was in beta with more than 25,000 people on its waitlist as of October 26, and planned a public launch in the following weeks. Funding will support its trading engine, risk controls and user growth; Mochatrade has also discussed adding stock options, more assets and social-trading features. Mochatrade says its operating company is registered with India’s FIU-IND as a virtual digital-asset service provider. That registration covers anti-money-laundering obligations and is not blanket approval for its products. The regulatory treatment of stock-linked perpetuals, particularly planned pre-IPO contracts, remains uncertain and could affect the platform’s rollout.

US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded mixed but substantial inflows in late October, while Ether ETF flows weakened. Lookonchain reported $470.15 million in Bitcoin ETF net inflows on Oct. 22, equivalent to 5,766 BTC; BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC accounted for about 92% of the total. Bitcoin ETFs also logged $937.97 million in net inflows over seven days. The same snapshot showed $10.63 million in Ether ETF outflows, led by BlackRock’s ETHA. However, Farside Investors reported inflows to both asset classes for its completed Oct. 21 session, so the daily figures are not directly comparable. In the later update, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $137 million in net inflows on Oct. 28, while Ether ETFs saw $21.41 million in outflows. Since launch, Bitcoin ETFs have attracted roughly $57–58 billion in cumulative net inflows and hold more than $100 billion in assets. Ether ETFs have accumulated about $12.5 billion in net inflows since July 2024, despite October outflows approaching $1.3 billion. Bitcoin traded around $80,000–$81,500 in late October. The divergent Bitcoin ETF and Ether ETF flows signal differing near-term fund demand, but ETF flows alone do not confirm a lasting market trend.

Singapore police are investigating at least two cases involving tampered Ledger hardware wallets bought from local retailers. Reported losses total about S$3.5 million (US$2.7 million), with cases dating back to 10 September. Preliminary findings indicate malicious hardware components may have captured recovery phrases or private keys, allowing unauthorised transfers. Ledger is reviewing the cases. On 13 October, it asked retailers in Singapore and several other Asian markets to suspend sales; the later report also says sales and shipments were paused in multiple Southeast Asian markets. The incidents followed the discovery of a hardware implant in a device distributed by regional reseller CryptoBilis. Ledger says confirmed cases involve reseller channels, not its own systems or direct sales. The Singapore losses are separate from blockchain analysts’ estimate of more than US$86 million linked to compromised wallets, which Ledger says it cannot verify. The Ledger hardware wallet incidents highlight supply-chain risks for crypto holders. Traders should verify device sources and consider any potentially exposed recovery phrase compromised.

Visa’s annualized stablecoin settlement volume has topped $25 billion, up tenfold year over year. The figure is an annualized run rate, not the total processed in fiscal 2026. CEO Ryan McInerney said Visa supports five stablecoins across 10 blockchains and operates settlement services in five regions. Its platform is available in the US, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Switzerland and the UK, with more than 300 prospective partners in its pipeline. Visa also has more than 225 stablecoin-linked card programs, covering about 5 million cards in over 50 countries. Transaction volume from those programs rose more than 150% year over year. Visa Direct’s USDC prefunding service has entered commercial production, with Inyo Global as its first live partner. Separately, Open USD launched on 30 September and had a circulating supply above $800 million as of 15 October. The latest figures point to broader use of stablecoins for payments, blockchain settlement and business treasury services. The growth expands institutional access to stablecoin infrastructure, but does not by itself signal an immediate price move in USDC or the wider crypto market.

Meme coins saw extreme volatility across Solana, BNB Chain, Robinhood Chain and Base between 26 and 29 October 2026, with sharp price swings and rapidly changing trading leaders. The later 24-hour roundup reported Solana top-10 volume of $44.5 million, down from $57.6 million on 26 October. STONK led both periods, with volume easing from $15.4 million to $14.7 million. HOUSECOIN and Grokbot posted striking gains in the later report, while LAUNCH had surged 36,508.5% in the earlier roundup; BTC fell 32.2% initially and 30.0% in the later report. BNB Chain top-10 volume declined from $36.7 million to $33.7 million. The leader changed from IRYS, at $17.5 million, to BNCB, at $20.9 million. Earlier standout gainers included 4AGENT, while JAGENT surged in the later report and GANG fell 36.6%. Robinhood Chain volume rose from $22.5 million to $44.4 million, with PONS leading both reports; NMS and PIZZA recorded large gains in their respective roundups. Base volume climbed from $26.7 million to $90.4 million, but remained heavily concentrated in AXIS. Its reported volume increased from $25.7 million to $89.1 million, while its price fell 35.5% in the later roundup; most leading Base tokens also declined. Overall, the meme coin data show concentrated turnover and fast-changing momentum, not a clear market-wide trend. Traders should verify token data and liquidity and account for the risk of sharp reversals.

A whale sold 1.02 million Solana (SOL) over five days, worth about $104 million, according to blockchain monitoring account Lookonchain. The sale could add short-term selling pressure to SOL, though the report does not identify the whale or say where the tokens were sold.

Gate US has introduced USD balance trading and USD Wire deposits and withdrawals, allowing eligible users to hold and transfer dollars without first converting them into stablecoins. Verified users in supported US jurisdictions can transfer funds from a bank account in their own name; the service is designed to support larger transfers than standard card or in-app options. Users must follow the app’s instructions and include a unique reference code. USD services are unavailable to residents of Colorado, Hawaii, Missouri, New Jersey, Utah and Wyoming. Gate US says it holds 37 state money transmission licences and serves 47 US states and territories.
