This Friday, September 4, the world's largest martial arts organization takes over the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, with a martial arts card that will deliver from top to bottom live in Asia primetime.
ONE Friday Fights 169 features nine bouts across Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA, with all athletes chasing the US$100,000 contract and a spot on ONE Championship's main roster.
In the main event, Petmuangsri Torfunfarm looks to extend his winning ways when he meets Scotland's Gregor Thom in a flyweight Muay Thai showdown.
The 23-year-old Petmuangsri, who represents the TDed99 gym, enters this bout riding a two-fight winning streak, having outpointed Chankrit Manop Gym before edging past Diogo "La Pantera" Miguel Silva by split decision at ONE Friday Fights 156.
Thom, meanwhile, has made his mark on the weekly series in emphatic fashion. Each of the Aberdeen Combat Centre standout's two wins in the weekly series has come by knockout, including a highlight-reel finish of Donking Yotharakmuaythai at ONE Friday Fights 142. The 26-year-old will look to add another statement finish to his resume as he continues flying the flag for Scotland at Lumpinee.

On July 21, the new S&P Pantera Digital ****** et (SPPDA) Index launched, and with it, investors everywhere now have a quick reference that tells them which cryptocurrencies are probably worth paying attention to. In short, the index's inclusion criteria call for only admitting an ****** et to the index if the protocol backing it earns real revenue. Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), Solana (CRYPTO: SOL), and Hyperliquid (CRYPTO: HYPE) all cleared that bar, but Bitcoin and XRP did not.
The SPPDA stands to benefit Solana, Hyperliquid, and Ethereum, not to mention a couple of other coins that it tracks. Here's why.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
The new index tracks the largest cryptoassets that are economically productive, as defined by their protocol revenue, weighted by their market cap.
Protocol revenue (also called chain revenue) is the fees users pay to a network to execute transactions. The index also explicitly seeks to not include those ****** ets that are speculative or uninvestable, like meme coins. Bitcoin, for its part, was excluded because its fees flow to its miners rather than holders, so it has no protocol revenue.

S&P Dow Jones Indices and Pantera Capital launched an 18-coin crypto index led by Ethereum, BNB, Solana, Tron and Hyperliquid, and left out both Bitcoin and XRP.
A coin only qualifies if the protocol behind it earns consecutive quarters of revenue and returns some of that money to token holders—a rule modeled on the S&P 500's four-quarter earnings test.
XRP's entire burn since 2012 totals roughly $16 million, which is less than 1% of the $3 billion the 18 qualifying coins generate yearly.
The exclusion stings XRP more than Bitcoin, given that utility is XRP's core value pitch while Bitcoin's digital gold narrative never required revenue.

In Bitcoin news today, shareholders of Satsuma Technology voted by more than 90% on Monday to sell the company's remaining 668 BTC, worth roughly $43.5M at current prices, and to cancel its LSE delisting, overruling four of six board members and formally ending a Bitcoin treasury experiment that lasted less than 12 months.
The decision crystallizes one of the sharper destructions of investor capital in the UK crypto ******* e: against the £163.6M raised in August 2025, shareholders now expect to recover between £26.8M and £30M after wind-down costs, less than 20 pence on the pound.
This latest Bitcoin Treasury firm news dropped as BTC climbed a modest +0.4% overnight, dropping under $66,000 since yesterday but still trading at $65,700, with a daily trading volume of $31.8Bn.
Satsuma started life as TAO Alpha, a small AI firm, before rebranding and pivoting to a Bitcoin treasury accumulation strategy. In August 2025, it hired Mark Moss, an American Bitcoin commentator with over 700,000 YouTube subscribers, as Chief Bitcoin Strategist.
The firm then raised £163.6M through convertible notes led by ParaFi Capital, with Pantera Capital, Digital Currency Group, and Kraken participating. Some investors contributed 1,097 BTC directly in place of roughly $97M in cash.

For 24 consecutive professional fights, Aslamjon “El Pantera” Ortikov had never experienced the bitter walk back to the locker room without a victory beside his name.
That flawless reality finally changed at The Inner Circle 20 on June 26, when the Uzbek phenom suffered a razor-close split-decision defeat to Asadula “The Dagestan Ninja” Imangazaliev in their epic battle for the vacant ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World ****** le.
The high-stakes, five-round main event at Bangkok’s historic Lumpinee Stadium featured all the creativity, blinding speed, and deep unpredictability expected from two undefeated strikers operating at the absolute pinnacle of the sport.
However, when the official scorecards were read in the center of the ring, two of the three judges ultimately sided with Imangazaliev — ending Ortikov’s perfect run and leaving him with the very first defeat of his career.
Ortikov shared:

Yair Rodriguez is apparently moving up to lightweight.

Rodriguez (20-5) and Belal Muhammad are teammates at Valle Flow Striking in Bensenville, Illinois. Muhammad recently claimed that “El Pantera” is moving up to lightweight from featherweight.

Rafael Fiziev knocked out Manuel Torres via a highlight-reel spinning back kick in front of his home fans at UFC Baku last weekend. Muhammad subsequently suggested a matchup between Fiziev and Rodriguez. When a fan noted that Rodriguez is a featherweight, Muhammad Said that the Mexican is moving up to lightweight. Muhammad also revealed that Rodriguez underwent surgery on his wrist after his last win over Patricio Freire.
Fizev and Yair would be fire— Belal Muhammad (bullyb170) June 27, 2026

Rodriguez has had an illustrious career at featherweight, only losing to top talents like Frankie Edgar, Max Holloway, Alexander Volkanovski and Brian Ortega. Rodriguez won the interim featherweight ****** le against Josh Emmett in 2023 but came up short in the bid for the undisputed ****** le against Volkanovski.
Nah Yair is moving up— Belal Muhammad (bullyb170) June 27, 2026
