Summary · why it matters

Canaan Inc. reported second quarter FY26 total revenue of $31.9 million, down from $100.2 million in Q2 FY25 and $62.7 million in the first quarter of 2026, alongside a net loss of $97.6 million that was far wider than the $11.1 million loss a year earlier. Product revenue fell to $13.6 million from $71.9 million, and mining revenue dropped to $17.7 million from $28.1 million, as weaker bitcoin prices cut both computing power sold and average selling prices; Canaan sold 2.5 EH/s of computing power in the quarter and its mining segment generated 243 bitcoins while staying cash-positive before depreciation. The company's quarter-end digital asset treasury reached a record 1,915.5 BTC and roughly 3,952 ETH as of June 30, but fair value changes on financial derivatives and cryptocurrency holdings swung to losses of $8.9 million and $9.3 million from year-earlier gains of $23.4 million and $10.6 million, and net foreign exchange losses totaled $3.0 million. Canaan guided third-quarter revenue to $11 million to $15 million, well below the $31.9 million just reported, citing continued weakness in market conditions and customer demand. Institutional sentiment remains weak, with only 6 hedge funds holding positions at the end of Q2 2026, unchanged from the prior quarter, and short interest at 8.90 percent; Invesco is the largest institutional stakeholder with 40.4 million shares, or 5.39 percent of outstanding shares, followed by Weiss Asset Management at 5.19 percent and Galaxy Digital at 1.56 percent.

Bitcoin's Bull Market Is Cooling, Watch US Demand Slowdown and Altcoin Selling Pressure

In a weekly report published on September 16, CryptoQuant assessed the current Bitcoin market as a "cooling bull market." After its recent rally, Bitcoin entered a range of $76,000 to $82,000 and is now trading near the lower end of that band, while its bullish score index fell from 80 during the uptrend to 60. Weakness in US investor demand is also clear: the Coinbase Premium has slipped back into negative territory as Bitcoin corrects from around $80,000, and a recovery in spot demand is seen as essential for a sustained advance. Ethereum exchange inflows surged in late August and around September 10, briefly reaching 1.6 million to 1.7 million ETH, while altcoin exchange inflow transactions hit 56,000 on September 8, the highest level in about nine months. Bitcoin exchange inflows, by contrast, have been calm; they briefly rose to about 53,000 BTC when prices climbed to $82,000 but have since declined, indicating that large-scale selling is not continuing. The key price level ahead is around $70,000, where the 200-day moving average sits; a break below that would bring $62,000 to $65,000 into focus as the next major support.

JPMorgan Says Bitcoin Could Outperform Gold as Hedges Unwind

JPMorgan analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou said Bitcoin could receive more support than gold if investors begin unwinding defensive positions around Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, according to a Wednesday note. The analysts said Bitcoin investors remain more heavily hedged than gold investors, leaving room for the cryptocurrency to benefit disproportionately if that caution fades. Gold ETFs have already recovered all of their earlier 2026 outflows, while Bitcoin ETFs have recovered only about half, and short interest in BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust, or IBIT, remains near its highest level this year, while short interest in the SPDR Gold Shares ETF is below its historical average. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $450.4 million in net outflows on Sept. 15 and another $295.9 million on Sept. 16, before reversing to $159.5 million of inflows on Sept. 17, with IBIT alone bringing in $183.7 million that day. The call comes despite a difficult backdrop: on Sept. 15 the Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, falling short of the 60 votes needed for cloture, and a day later the Federal Reserve unanimously raised interest rates by 25 basis points to a range of 3.75%-4%, its first increase since 2023.
