In a monthly chart shared on July 8, crypto analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) outlined a long-term bullish thesis for Dogecoin (DOGE), identifying a clear historical pattern that may signal the next major leg in its price trajectory. The focal point of the chart is the 1.618 Fibonacci extension—used as a key projection level—which Kevin implies is Dogecoin’s next major upside target. Based on the chart, this level corresponds to $3.94. History Says Dogecoin Will Hit $3.94 Dogecoin’s price action has followed a remarkably consistent macro-pattern across three major market phases. In each, DOGE formed a clear descending wedge, followed by an impulsive breakout and parabolic rally. These structures are annotated in yellow on the chart and preceded both the 2017 and 2021 bull runs. The most recent wedge breakout completed in November last year, with a retest of the breakout currently taking place. Kevin marks two historical Fibonacci extension levels that were reached following previous consolidations. Both peaked near the 1.618 Fibonacci extension of their respective bases—a common target for extended bullish moves in technical analysis. For the current structure, this places DOGE’s long-term Fibonacci target near $3.94, which would represent a roughly 2,218% move from the current price around $0.17. Indicators further support the notion of a long-term base having formed. The RSI (Relative Strength Index) on the monthly chart has just reclaimed the neutral 50 zone, currently sitting at 50.39, a signal often interpreted as the transition from bearish to bullish control. In prior cycle, the monthly RSI always topped above 90. Notably, the monthly RSI is also in an uptrend since mid-2022, respecting the yellow trendline drawn by the analyst. A significant confluence comes from the Stochastic RSI, which has just completed a bottoming crossover in the oversold region. The last time this occurred, in early 2020, Dogecoin followed with a parabolic surge. This same dynamic now appears to be setting up again, echoing the previous cycle. Also noteworthy is the chart’s structural emphasis on 0.382 Fibonacci retracement support, currently plotted at $0.13778, from which Dogecoin appears to be bouncing. This aligns with the green supertrend support, suggesting a critical local floor has been found. While the purple zones on the chart above $0.50 are not formal price targets, Kevin clarified in a response to a community member that they are key resistance zones—intermediary checkpoints before DOGE can make a full move toward its final Fibonacci extension. These zones span from approximately $1.00 to $1.20 as well as from $2.30 to $2.50, and eventually up toward the $3.94 range. Kevin emphasized that “as well as Dogecoin has done this cycle especially compared to other altcoins, it still has not even come close to what it is capable of. That will change in the right environment.” He further noted that Dogecoin has already seen a 10x move from its bear market low to the local highs, but believes “there’s still work to do” when the cycle of quantitative tightening by the US Federal Reserve ends. The chart and commentary triggered a strong community reaction. Users like @MonetaryRegimee declared “We always hit the 1.618,” to which Kevin replied, “Typically yes,” reinforcing his confidence in the fractal repetition. Others described the current price action as “the calm before the storm.” Whether Dogecoin ultimately fulfills its fractal-driven destiny toward $3.94 remains to be seen. But the historical technical symmetry laid out by Kevin’s chart offers a compelling case that DOGE’s long-term rally may be far from over. At press time, DOGE traded at $0.174.

Tech was in focus in today's session, particularly throughout the last few hours as NVIDIA just hit the $4 trillion market cap and Bitcoin, Ethereum rallied consequently. Sentiment still shows a few signs of hesitation, particularly with disappointing Prime Day numbers dragging Consumer defensive stocks down relative to other sectors. European stocks are to be monitored as they have had consecutive positive days above 1.50%, led by the German DAX. In terms of Commodities, softs had a decent performance led by Cocoa, Sugar and Lumber – in terms of more commonly traded commodities though, US Oil and Gold are almost completely unchanged.

Despite a risk-off opening to this week, the latest tariff delay from the Trump administration brought back some risk appetite. The Nasdaq retested its all-time highs (22,945 on its CFD) and the S&P 500 came close to it. Only the Dow Jones is once again lagging on the positive sentiment, with deeper US productivity concerns due to the tariff menace still being real for Consumer Defensive stocks. Markets are still off an ecstatic mood which is starting to show a few cracks. The real main change to this week's flows is the US Dollar starting to show some signs of rebound, up around 1 full handle from its 96.50 lows. The FOMC Minutes are released about an hour ago, with the most market moving element being the mention of a few participants that are moving closer to a cut in July, leading to a drop in US Treasury Yields (Bonds higher, yields down).

US traders and DeFi fans have turned their eyes to Sei Network (SEI) after its Total Value Locked (TVL) climbed past $626 million. That leap marks a huge rise from about $60 million at the start of 2024, showing a strong wave of new funds and fresh users staking assets on the chain. Sei Network TVL Rockets According to DeFiLlama, TVL on Sei surged from roughly $60 million in January 2024 to almost $700 million at its peak. That represents nearly a 10 × gain in just six months—growth most rival chains only manage in single‑digit or low double‑digit jumps of 10–50 % over the same stretch. Based on reports by crypto fans on X, this kind of TVL swing is very rare in today’s tight market. On‑Chain Activity Picks Up Crypto observer Kyledoops shared that daily transfers and smart‑contract calls on Sei have climbed steadily. “More capital is flowing in and on‑chain actions are rising,” he wrote. Some market observers say that some parts of the ecosystem saw 10–50 % jumps in TVL, with a few protocols posting even bigger gains. This buzz comes at a time when many DeFi projects are struggling to grow. Japan Approval Draws Investors Based on reports, a key boost arrived when Sei earned approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency. That nod gives it a regulated path into one of the world’s strictest crypto markets. Artemis Analytics noted that daily active addresses hit a two‑year high right after the JFSA greenlight. Institutions are said to be taking a closer look at trading and custody options in Tokyo. Price Swings Test Support SEI’s token price more than doubled in June after a US government‑backed stablecoin pilot was announced and after SEI Labs proposed SIP‑3, a shift to an EVM‑only chain. Even with that jump, the coin still sits about 78 % below its March 2024 peak, trading around $0.26 today. Some technical analysts point to a chart floor at $0.25. A breach there could push SEI closer to $0.20, which would put pressure on holders who bought in at higher levels. Sei Price Forecast According to current projections, SEI is set to drop by 25% and reach $0.19 by August 8, 2025. Based on technical indicators, market sentiment remains Bullish while the Fear & Greed Index sits at 66 (Greed). Over the last 30 days, SEI logged 17/30 (57%) green days and saw 19% price swings in that window. These figures suggest that short‑term dips could be sharp, but buyers may view lower prices as a chance to get in. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

XRP might be currently trading around $2, but its path to double and four digits may be faster than imagined. Notably, a bold new forecast has shaken up the XRP community, as crypto analyst BarriC declared that the token could explode from $2 to $1,000 much faster than anyone expects. His comments have caused a bit of optimism among investors, many of whom are already eyeing a new all-time high as momentum builds following the cryptocurrency’s recent quarterly close above $2.25. XRP’s Rise To $1,000 Based On History Taking to the social media platform X, prominent analyst BarriC predicted that the XRP price will surge to $1,000 a lot sooner than most people anticipate. Notably, BarriC’s prediction of a surge draws on the cryptocurrency’s historical performance. Back in 2017, XRP was trading at just $0.006 before launching into a parabolic bull run that took it as high as $3.40 by early 2018. Investors back then underestimated this move, and only a few were able to get in at the earliest. This $3.40 all-time high has been maintained by the altcoin for over seven years, but the situation might change very soon. The altcoin’s current price level, which is just above $2, is a mirror of that early accumulation phase. According to BarriC, investors today may similarly be underestimating how quickly XRP can move. “People buying XRP at $0.006 in 2017 weren’t expecting it to skyrocket to $3.80,” he wrote on X and suggested that a similar underestimation is happening today. Community Torn Between Hope And Doubt His claim, “XRP will skyrocket from $2 to $1,000 a lot sooner than people anticipate,” has been met with mixed reactions of both excitement and skepticism on the social media platform. Some community members were quick to support BarriC’s outlook, with one user responding, “XRP $1,400 is very realistic.” The statement was in reference to its 63,000% rise in the 2017-2018 bull run emphasized by BarriC. Another user commented that although XRP will definitely reach that price level, it won’t be very soon, and it will be “maybe sometime in 2030 to 2040.” Others, however, urged caution, pointing out that XRP is no longer an underdog. Unlike in 2017, XRP’s growth is now very much anticipated, which may dampen the element of surprise that helped its rally seven years ago. Another factor is the current state of the altcoin, along with the significant inflows that could lead to a rally of 63,000% from its current price level. One of the commenters noted that back in 2018, it was possible to invest as little as $6,000 and own as many as 1 million XRP tokens. Another community member noted that although XRP might not reach such an absurd price target, it is going to break out soon to around $10. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.33, up by 2.6% in the past 24 hours. Reaching the $1,000 price target would translate to a 42,800% return from the current levels.

Minutes from the Fed’s June 17-18 policy meeting, released at 14:00 EDT, have done little to change the narrative surrounding future monetary policy decisions. Markets predict the Federal Reserve will maintain rates on July 30th and make its first 2025 rate cut in its September 17th decision. Fed Minutes June 17-18: Key takeaways Unanimous in vote to maintain the federal fund rate between 4.25 and 4.50%, minutes reaffirmed the Fed’s concerns on tariff-borne inflation, although acknowledged that uncertainty on the general economic outlook has “diminished but remains elevated”While predictions for a July rate cut remain essentially unchanged, the minutes shed light on the diverging views held by policymakers about how lax the Fed should be during the current easing cycle Fed Minutes June 17-18: Inflation remains above the 2% target Somewhat predictably, minutes would confirm that the Federal Reserve seems less concerned about the trend of falling inflation and more concerned that it remains above the target of 2%, mentioning recent PCE figures. Cited as “somewhat elevated” both in the immediate policy statement and minutes, the phrasing around inflation highlights ongoing concern, especially compared to the more complimentary commentary of current US labor numbers. The report’s description of the labor market as “solid” and unemployment as “low” would suggest that, in a vacuum, recent labor market numbers would support the notion of rate cuts.

Minutas do Fed Indicam Estabilidade na Taxa Próxima ao Neutro e Revisão Positiva para PIB e Inflação em 2025 Análise por Igor Pereira – Analista de Mercado Financeiro e Membro Junior WallStreet NYSE As Minutas do Federal Reserve (Fed), divulgadas em 09 de julho de 2025, revelam importantes indicações sobre a condução da política monetária americana para os próximos meses, com impactos diretos e indiretos no mercado financeiro global, especialmente no par XAU/USD (ouro versus dólar). Principais Destaques das Minutas do Fed Manutenção da Taxa de Juros Próxima ao Neutro: Os membros do FOMC concordam que a taxa dos Fed funds pode estar próxima ao seu nível neutro, sinalizando a intenção de manter a política monetária estável no curto prazo, evitando aumentos adicionais. Riscos de Inflação e Mercado de Trabalho Reduzidos, mas Presentes: Embora os riscos de uma inflação mais alta e de um enfraquecimento do mercado de trabalho tenham diminuído, o comitê ainda mantém cautela sobre esses fatores. Redução da Incerteza Econômica, mas Ambiente Ainda Volátil: A diminuição das tarifas anunciadas contribuiu para um cenário menos incerto, porém o nível geral de incerteza permanece elevado devido a fatores geopolíticos e comerciais. Extensão da Redução do Balanço do Fed até Fevereiro de 2026: A expectativa de término do processo de encolhimento do balanço patrimonial foi revista para fevereiro de 2026, um mês além da projeção anterior. Revisão para Cima do Crescimento do PIB e para Baixo da Inflação em 2025: A equipe técnica do Fed ajustou suas projeções indicando maior crescimento econômico e inflação mais moderada do que o previsto anteriormente. O Que Esperar do Mercado Financeiro Para o Mercado Cambial e o Ouro (XAU/USD) A manutenção da taxa de juros próxima ao neutro e a perspectiva de inflação controlada tendem a reduzir a atratividade do ouro como ativo de proteção, podendo pressionar o preço do XAU/USD para baixo no curto prazo. No entanto, a continuidade do processo de redução do balanço patrimonial mantém uma pressão restritiva sobre a liquidez global, o que pode limitar quedas acentuadas do metal precioso. Além disso, a diminuição da incerteza comercial favorece ativos de risco, beneficiando moedas fortes como o dólar americano, que exerce influência direta sobre o ouro, devido à correlação inversa tradicional entre ambos. Para o Mercado de Renda Fixa e Ações No segmento de renda fixa, a estabilidade da taxa de juros deve manter os rendimentos dos títulos relativamente estáveis, com leve viés de alta devido ao aperto gradual da liquidez. Já o mercado acionário pode encontrar suporte no cenário de crescimento econômico revisado para cima e menor pressão inflacionária, beneficiando especialmente setores cíclicos e financeiros. Impactos Técnicos e Estratégicos para Traders XAU/USD: É recomendada atenção ao comportamento do ouro diante da nova conjuntura. Movimentos de correção podem ocorrer, mas a volatilidade deve se manter elevada, dada a persistência das incertezas globais. Estratégias de curto prazo podem buscar entradas em suportes técnicos, aproveitando repiques ocasionais da demanda por proteção. Dólar Americano: A moeda tende a se manter firme com suporte do cenário econômico e monetário, mas pode apresentar ajustes pontuais conforme novos dados econômicos forem divulgados. Considerações Finais do Analista Igor Pereira A análise das Minutas do Fed reforça um cenário de transição para uma política monetária de manutenção, com foco em garantir o controle da inflação sem frear o crescimento econômico. Para o mercado financeiro, o ambiente combina estabilidade relativa com necessidade de vigilância constante, devido à volatilidade residual e fatores externos ainda relevantes. Recomenda-se que traders e investidores acompanhem de perto os próximos indicadores econômicos dos EUA, especialmente dados de emprego, inflação e decisões do Fed, para ajustar suas estratégias com base em possíveis mudanças na política monetária.

Venerable Ventures’ (TSXV: VLV.H) new resource for the old Minto mine in the Yukon has more than doubled contained copper and gold over the 2005 estimate as the owners create a new company with the Selkirk First Nation (SFN). The update outlines 12.6 million indicated tonnes grading 1.2% copper, 0.46 gram gold per tonne and 4.3 grams silver for 334 million lb. copper, 187,000 oz. gold and 1.7 million oz. silver, Venerable reported late Monday. Inferred resources total 23.7 million tonnes at 1.05% copper, 0.38 gram gold and 3.9 grams silver for 547 million lb. copper, 295,000 oz. gold and 2.97 million oz. silver. Minto sits on SFN traditional territory and is about 240 km northwest of Whitehorse “Upcoming drilling will target expansion and conversion of the open-pit and underground mineral resources at Minto, particularly around the high-grade Minto North area,” Venerable Ventures’ strategic adviser Ryan Weymark said in a release. Indigenous ownership The resource update comes almost one year after Yukon’s Supreme Court approved SFN’s purchase of Minto, a rare case of Indigenous ownership of a mine in Canada. The Minto mine had been put up for sale in September 2023 after owner Minto Metals shut it down in May due to financial difficulty and PricewaterhouseCoopers put the mine into receivership. The Minto mine produced about 500 million lb. copper between 2007 and 2023. The Vancouver-based Venerable Ventures announced on July 1 a binding letter of intent with the SFN that is to see the creation of Selkirk Copper Mines. The First Nation will become the largest shareholder in the C$15 million all-share deal and will appoint two directors to the board. Before it closes, Venerable will conduct a non-brokered private placement of up to C$2.52 million. More financing is planned to support further exploration and restarting activities. Lower grades While the discovery of a new mineralized domain at Minto North raised the tonnage in the update, its grades are generally slightly lower and it didn’t include a measured category. The update is based on 376,089 metres of drilling across 1,781 holes, including 210 holes drilled in 2021 and 2022. Venerable shares were flat at C$0.18 apiece on Tuesday at mid-day in Toronto, for a market capitalization of C$3.2 million. Its stock traded in a 12-month range of C$0.09 to C$0.23.

Dogecoin may be gearing up for its next breakout. After holding firm near $0.17 on the weekly chart, DOGE recently bounced off key Fibonacci and trendline support, hinting at renewed bullish potential. With its 200‑week moving average offering steady support and price comfortably above the ascending channel, technicals suggest the setup is aligning. If the recent dip toward the 200 MA on the M15 chart proves to be a low-risk entry, this could set the stage for a retest of the $0.16490 resistance, and possibly more. Rejection At Resistance, But Technicals Still Favor Bulls In a recent analysis shared on X, Thomas Anderson presented a detailed breakdown of DOGE/USD price action across the M15 and M30 timeframes. According to the expert, Dogecoin is currently trading at $0.17043, and the price is facing rejection at the yellow horizontal resistance line around $0.16490. The price action shows consolidation just below this key level, signaling indecision among traders. Anderson pointed out that the 200 MA (red line) is acting as dynamic support from below, helping to anchor the price during the current consolidation phase. This moving average support provides bulls the foundation to regain control if momentum shifts in their favor. On the M30 chart, Anderson noted that the broader bullish structure remains intact, with DOGE price holding above the ascending trendline. This technical pattern suggests continued optimism for upward movement, provided the price does not break below key support areas. Thomas Anderson concluded that any pullback toward the 200 MA on the M15 timeframe could offer a buying opportunity, particularly for traders eyeing a retest of the $0.16490 resistance. Dogecoin Weekly Chart Echoes Elliott Theory’s Bullish Blueprint Taking a closer look at Dogecoin’s weekly chart, crypto analyst Andrew observed a notable long-term wave structure unfolding. He explained that over the past three years, DOGE has completed a five-wave impulse to the upside, which was followed by a typical ABC correction, consistent with Elliott Wave theory. Andrew further noted that price found a strong reaction at the 0.786 Fibonacci level, marked by a light blue line, which traces the retracement from the entire upward move. This reaction suggests that DOGE may have reached a critical support area, where buyers could begin stepping in. With this in mind, Andrew believes the current structure appears to be forming a larger 1-2 setup, which could lead to a powerful Wave 3 advance. If this pattern plays out, it may signal the start of a new bullish phase with the potential to break beyond previous highs.

A resource update for Banyan Gold’s (TSXV: BYN) AurMac project makes it the second largest resource on the Tombstone Gold belt in Yukon. Shares rose. The update adds 112.5 million indicated tonnes grading 0.63 gram gold for 2.27 million oz. Banyan reported Tuesday. It includes 280.6 million inferred tonnes at 0.6 gram gold for 5.45 million contained ounces. The road-accessible AurMac is about 360 km north of Whitehorse. “This update achieved the primary objectives of last year’s program, which were to convert over 2 million oz. into indicated mineral resources with a refined geological model and importantly identify near surface, high-grade areas,” Banyan president and CEO Tara Christie said in a release. Contained ounces The update now puts AurMac behind Snowline Gold’s (TSXV: SGD) Valley deposit as the second biggest resource by contained ounces in Yukon. The previous estimate from February last year comprised only inferred resources. Banyan shares gained 5.6% to C$0.28 apiece in Toronto on Wednesday morning for a market capitalization of C$111 million. Its stock has traded in a 12-month range of C$0.15 to C$0.29. The update incorporates results from 21,000 metres of drilling across 118 holes last year at AurMac’s Airstrip and Powerline deposits. The company plans to conduct another 30,000 metres of drilling this year, mostly at Airstrip and Powerline, as well as complete a preliminary economic assessment for AurMac in the fourth quarter.

Endeavour Silver (NYSE: EXK; TSX: EDR) closed in on a 52-week high on Wednesday after the Canadian miner reported its operating results for the second quarter of 2025. The Q2 results are highlighted by approximately 1.48 million oz. of silver production and 7,755 oz. of gold, equating to total silver-equivalent production of 2.5 million oz. The silver output, says Endeavour, was in line with plan and 13% higher than the first quarter, owing to the addition of a third producing mine at Kolpa. In April, the company announced the acquisition of the Kolpa mine in Huancavelica, Peru, in a $145 million deal to bolster its Mexico-based portfolio. Chief executive Dan Dickson said at the time that the acquisition would bring Endeavour closer to becoming a senior silver producer, with a material increase in its production profile. Excluding Kolpa, however, Endeavour’s consolidated silver production was 16% lower than Q2 2024, due to decreases in production at its Guanaceví and Bolañitos mines. Gold production, too, was lower by 26% as a result of the mines’ underperformance. Meanwhile, a third mine could be on its way to production in Mexico. During the recent quarter, commissioning of the Terronera project continued to progress steadily, said Endeavour, adding that it expects to gradually ramp up throughput to design capacity in early Q3. “The integration of Kolpa is progressing smoothly, with output already trending above initial expectations,” Dickson said in a press release Wednesday. “At the same time, Terronera continues to move steadily toward commercial production.” Shares of Endeavour Silver jumped nearly 10% to $7.28 apiece by 12:30 ET, near a 52-week high of C$7.87. The Toronto-based precious metals miner has a market capitalization of C$2.1 billion.

The second largest cryptocurrency has been on a consistent grind in the past two weeks after seeing some heavy selling flows during the Israel-Iran War, taking its prices close to the $2,000 mark but since, has been posting a slow but strong rally, fuel for further continuation. Crypto markets haven't taken a significant direction for a while, but it doesn't mean that no opportunities are availables – Ranges give the opportunity for markets to cool down and prepare for further moves, while consolidating Volume-at-Price. Market theory implies that the more prices are at an equilibrium (rangebound), the more solid the anchor of value for all participants. With cryptos consolidating at much higher levels than prior years, this shows a resilience for cryptocurrency markets and gives it more credibility for traditional investors to start inputting more flows. For example, since mid-May 2025, Bitcoin has been consolidating between $100,000 to $110,000 – despite giving to many players the opportunity to take their profits, markets did not retrace. Ranges also provide opportunities for scalpers who may attempt to trade highs and lows. Same for Ethereum which has been holding between $2,350 to $2,750 for close to two months now, and despite these prices being not too close from the Ether's ETH, it still consolidates at a relative high value, particularly after the 2025 Q1 Heavy Selling.

The Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF (Nasdaq: SLVR) officially reached $100 million in assets under management (AUM) by the end of the June quarter. SLVR is currently the only exchange-traded fund (ETF) focused on providing pure-play exposure to silver miners and physical silver, a precious metal that has both store-of-value benefits and evolving industrial uses. The ETF, launched by Sprott Asset Management on January 15, 2025, draws on the firm’s extensive experience in the precious metals and critical materials space. It joins Sprott’s growing family of precious metals ETFs that currently includes the Sprott Active Gold & Silver Miners ETF (GBUG), Sprott Gold Miners ETF (SGDM) and Sprott Junior Gold Miners ETF (SGDJ). “We believe silver has been considerably undervalued relative to gold, but silver seems to be hitting its stride, with prices recently breaking $35 per ounce for the first time in more than 12 years. Silver miners may be well-positioned as prices rise, fundamentals improve, and industrial demand grows,” John Ciampaglia, CEO of Sprott Asset Management, stated in a press release Wednesday. By noon ET, spot silver was trading at $36.45 per ounce, down 0.9% for the day. Year to date, the metal has risen by 27%, setting a 13-year high of $37.32 per ounce along the way.

📰 Trump intensifica guerra tarifária e pressiona o Fed por cortes de juros Por Igor Pereira, Analista de Mercado Financeiro | ExpertFX School ⚠️ Trump amplia ofensiva tarifária: mais 6 países notificados com novas tarifas para 1º de agosto O presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump, escalou significativamente sua política comercial nesta quarta-feira (09), enviando notificações formais de tarifas para mais seis países, com taxas variando de 20% a 30% sobre exportações destinadas ao mercado americano a partir de 1º de agosto de 2025. Os novos alvos incluem: 🇵🇭 Filipinas – 20% 🇧🇳 Brunei – 25% 🇲🇩 Moldávia – 25% 🇮🇶 Iraque – 30% 🇩🇿 Argélia – 30% 🇱🇾 Líbia – 30% Essas notificações somam-se às cartas enviadas nas últimas 72h a países como Malásia, Cazaquistão, África do Sul, Laos, Mianmar e Vietnã, elevando o número total de nações ameaçadas com novas tarifas para mais de 20 em menos de uma semana. 💬 Trump pressiona Powell com críticas diretas: “Senhor Tarde Demais” Simultaneamente, Trump intensificou ataques contra Jerome Powell, presidente do Federal Reserve. Em publicação nas redes sociais, o presidente declarou: Trump voltou a se referir ao presidente do Fed como “Mr. Too Late” (Sr. Tarde Demais) e afirmou que manter os juros elevados está destruindo competitividade e impedindo a expansão industrial nos EUA, em meio ao “boom” de realocação industrial provocado pelas tarifas. 🇧🇷 Brasil na mira: atrito com governo Lula se intensifica Nos bastidores, fontes diplomáticas revelam que Trump está incomodado com críticas públicas feitas por Brasília às sanções e tarifas americanas. O presidente norte-americano também voltou a criticar a forma como o governo brasileiro está lidando com o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro, afirmando que o tratamento dado a ele é “vergonhoso”. 📉 Impacto no mercado financeiro global A ampliação da guerra tarifária e a possibilidade de cortes forçados na taxa de juros têm gerado volatilidade no mercado cambial e de commodities: Dólar DXY testa suporte de longo prazo, com expectativa de reversão técnica.

📉 Relação Ouro / Ações dos EUA segue em níveis historicamente baixos 📈 Volume de negociações com ouro tokenizado ultrapassa US$ 19 bilhões no 1º semestre de 2025 🔶 Resumo Técnico da Situação Atual do Ouro – Julho de 2025 🔸 Segundo especialistas da Crescat Capital, o ouro está inserido em um forte ciclo de alta macroeconômico de longo prazo, sustentado por fatores estruturais como: Desdolarização global Crescente demanda por ativos físicos e fora do sistema bancário Reestruturação do sistema financeiro internacional (BRICS, CBDCs, RWA) 📊 Relação Ouro / Ações: em níveis históricos de reversão A métrica de comparação entre ouro e ações americanas segue em níveis extremamente baixos, similares aos vistos antes de grandes reversões históricas. Isso indica que o ouro está barato em relação aos ativos de risco. 🔍 Análise Crescat: 🧠 Macro Drivers: Por que o ouro segue forte em 2025 Expansão de tarifas e guerra comercial com os EUA elevando tarifas sobre mais de 14 países a partir de agosto; Adoção institucional recorde: ETFs voltam a registrar entrada líquida em junho (+75 toneladas, segundo WGC); Demanda por proteção contra recessão e instabilidade geopolítica; Adoção tecnológica e tokenização de ouro, criando nova demanda e liquidez para o metal. ✴️ Tokenização de Ouro supera ETFs tradicionais no 1º semestre 🚀 O volume negociado de ouro tokenizado (RWA – Real World Assets) já ultrapassou US$ 19 bilhões no primeiro semestre de 2025, superando vários ETFs tradicionais de ouro, segundo dados da Gate.io. 📌 Este avanço reflete: Integração entre o mercado cripto e o mercado físico de metais Migração de capital para ativos reais digitalmente liquidados Busca por reserva de valor transparente, auditável e negociável 24/7 📈 O que esperar do ouro nos próximos meses? Correções devem ser vistas como oportunidade, principalmente abaixo de US$ 3.300 Potencial de alta para US$ 3.500 a US$ 3.800 até o final de 2025, com base na continuidade dos fluxos institucionais e geopolítica tensionada Tokenização e BRICS Pay devem ampliar o papel do ouro como ativo de reserva global não-dolarizado 📚 Análise institucional por Igor Pereira – Membro WallStreet NYSE 📍 ExpertFX School – Educação e estratégia profissional em ouro, FX e macroeconomia global

📊 100 empresas listadas em bolsa já acumulam mais de 852.467 BTC 🔶 Panorama Atual De acordo com os dados mais recentes da HODL15Capital, o número de empresas de capital aberto que possuem Bitcoin em seus balanços chegou a 100 companhias, totalizando 852.467 BTC — o equivalente a mais de US$ 92 bilhões no preço atual (U$109.011/BTC). Entre os principais destaques está a MicroStrategy, liderada por Michael Saylor, que continua ampliando suas posições e defendendo a tese de adoção corporativa em larga escala. 💬 Michael Saylor: “Estou extremamente bullish” Esse descompasso entre oferta diária (~900 BTC/dia) e a demanda institucional crescente está sendo apontado como o principal catalisador de alta para o BTC ao longo do segundo semestre de 2025. 📈 Implicações para o mercado Oferta restrita, demanda explosiva A escassez programada do Bitcoin se intensifica com a entrada institucional, criando pressão contínua de alta no preço. Normalização do BTC como ativo de balanço Com mais de 100 empresas públicas já expostas ao BTC, o ativo começa a se consolidar como alternativa legítima ao caixa em dólar, principalmente em um ambiente de desdolarização. Concorrência entre empresas por BTC A competição entre corporações por adquirir BTC pode gerar efeito de FOMO institucional, ampliando ainda mais o desequilíbrio entre oferta e demanda. 📌 O que esperar? Se o ritmo atual de compras corporativas se mantiver acima de $102.000 (ou acelerar), o preço do BTC pode superar a marca dos US$ 130.000–150.000 ainda em 2025. Se o BTC vier abaixo de $96.000 uma correção profunda pode estar a caminho. A adoção contínua entre tesourarias corporativas, somada à crescente demanda por reserva de valor fora do sistema fiduciário tradicional, reforça o viés de alta estrutural para o Bitcoin. 📍 Análise macroeconômica e institucional por Igor Pereira 📚 ExpertFX School – Conteúdo técnico e profissional para traders e investidores institucionais

📈 ETFs de Ouro voltam a registrar entrada líquida: +75 toneladas em junho — World Gold Council (WGC) 🔶 Resumo da Notícia De acordo com o Conselho Mundial do Ouro (WGC), os fundos de índice (ETFs) com lastro físico em ouro registraram um crescimento líquido de 75 toneladas em junho, revertendo a tendência negativa observada nos meses anteriores. 📊 Destaques Técnicos Volume total acumulado dos ETFs globais agora supera 3.170 toneladas, refletindo uma renovada demanda institucional por proteção e diversificação. Maiores compradores: Europa e China lideraram as entradas, com os investidores norte-americanos voltando timidamente às compras no final do mês. O movimento marca a maior entrada mensal desde março de 2022, sinalizando um possível pivô de posicionamento institucional. 🔎 Motivos por trás da alta nos fluxos Aumento da incerteza geopolítica: Crescentes tensões entre EUA e países do BRICS, ameaças de tarifas e reconfiguração comercial global reacenderam a demanda por ativos defensivos. Expectativas de desaceleração econômica global: Sinais de fraqueza no setor manufatureiro e de serviços em economias centrais elevaram as apostas em ativos de proteção como o ouro. Desdolarização e diversificação cambial: Bancos centrais e grandes investidores continuam a reduzir exposição ao dólar, aumentando alocações em ouro — especialmente em regiões como Ásia e Oriente Médio. 🧠 O que esperar a seguir? A continuidade desses fluxos dependerá de dois fatores principais: 🔹 Política monetária do Fed 🔹 Desdobramentos nas tensões comerciais entre EUA x BRICS Caso o ouro se consolide acima dos US$ 3.300, um novo fluxo técnico e institucional pode levar o preço a buscar US$ 3.400–3.500 nos próximos meses. De outro modo, já abaixo de $3294 no dário (D1), está a caminho de uma correção maior. 📌 Análise técnica e fundamentalista por Igor Pereira, Membro WallStreet NYSE ExpertFX School – Conteúdo profissional para traders institucionais e de varejo.

Ledger has announced a limited-time 30% discount on nearly all color models of its popular Nano S Plus and Nano X hardware wallets, valid through July 15. The promotion has drawn fresh attention to the company’s flagship products, widely regarded as industry benchmarks for secure crypto storage. Together, the Nano S Plus and Nano X boast 13,345 reviews, the majority of which are positive, underscoring the strong trust and satisfaction among users worldwide. But what makes Ledger such a popular hardware wallet? Ledger Wallet’s Blend of Security, Comfort, and Style – this is what makes them so attractive to its loyal fanbase and newbies alike. Ledger excels in the areas of security, comfort level, and overall style, but it’s the wallet’s security features that attract users. Ledger relies on a multi-layered security profile, with several noticeable features, like: The PIN code that secures the actual device to prevent unauthorized access is required to complete any transaction The 24-word phrase, which acts as the master key, secures your funds against any malicious access The trademark Blockchain Open Ledger Operating System (BOLOS), which isolates any installed apps from one another and the 24-word phrase from all apps and the operating system itself Secure Element Chip, the hardware component that keeps the private keys offline for a higher level of security Plus, Ledger’s Donjon team, which consists of seasoned hackers, is constantly testing the products’ security to identify any potential vulnerabilities. Their efforts are part of Ledger’s Bug Bounty program, which rewards anyone who finds security weaknesses in Bitcoin, showcasing the team’s commitment to continuous improvements in the security department.

You’ll find a lot of products and accessories, based on your needs. Remember, this is not financial advice. Do your own research before buying any product.

A sudden social media jab sent Solana’s Peanut the Squirrel token soaring this week. In a Tuesday post, billionaire Elon Musk criticized US authorities for ignoring names on the Jeffrey Epstein “client list”, quipping that “more squirrels and raccoons have been arrested” than any Epstein affiliates. A nod to a squirrel named Peanut—said to have been “arrested (and killed)”—coincided with a sharp pop in the PNUT token’s value. According to on‑chain data, PNUT climbed over 10% in 24 hours, touching $0.23 at one point. Elon Musk Highlights Justice Concerns Based on reports, Musk’s post racked up more than 13.7 million views within hours. Traders quickly linked “Peanut” to the PNUT ticker. Almost immediately, PNUT price rose from about $0.22 to $0.23. The token’s 24‑hour trading volume jumped roughly 80%, crossing $215 million. Market watchers estimate PNUT’s market cap now sits near $224 million, out of a total supply approaching 1 billion tokens. Market Reaction Follows Viral Meme Meme tokens often depend on hype, and PNUT was no exception. After Musk’s message spread, order books filled fast. Buy orders outnumbered sells, driving price momentum. Crypto bots and retail traders piled in, hoping to catch the wave. Some investors told reporters they moved funds into PNUT within minutes of seeing Musk’s post. Token Jump Drives Trading Frenzy Solana’s speedy network helped too. Transactions cleared in seconds, letting traders react without delay. That low‑fee environment amplifies meme coin rallies: when hype hits, people can buy or sell without worrying about high gas costs. In this case, volume spiked from around $120 million to $214 million in under a day. Looking Ahead, Caution Advised Despite the rush, crypto veterans warn that PNUT’s gains could reverse just as fast. Meme tokens lack fundamentals, and hype fades quickly. Traders could face losses if views shift or if Musk moves on to the next joke. For now, Musk’s satirical jab has put Peanut the Squirrel on center stage. Whether PNUT can hold its gains may depend on more viral moments—and on whether investors remember to take profits before the next twist. No ‘Client List’ Meanwhile, according to a memo obtained by Axios, the Justice Department and FBI under US President Donald Trump found no evidence that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful individuals, kept a “client list,” or was murdered.

Chilean President Gabriel Boric said Wednesday his government is still waiting for formal communication from Washington on proposed US tariffs targeting copper, following President Donald Trump’s announcement that he intends to impose a 50% levy on imports of the metal. “We are waiting for the official communication from the United States government regarding what the policy will be—whether or not it includes copper cathodes, what the limits are, and whether this will actually be implemented or not,” Boric told reporters, according to local media site Emol. His comments came after state-owned Codelco, the world’s largest copper producer, said it was in a “wait-and-see” mode, as details remain vague. Chairman Máximo Pacheco said the firm first wanted to know which copper products would be included and if the tariff would hit all countries. “What we need to do is understand what this is about. What products are affected? Because he referred to copper in general terms. But copper includes a variety of products,” Pacheco told Reuters on Tuesday. “Then, we have to see whether this will apply to all countries or only some. We’ve always known that exceptions are made, and therefore, I think it’s premature to comment,” he noted. Graphic courtesy of Benchmark Mineral Intelligence. Chile is the largest copper supplier to the US, a market that makes up less than 7% accounts for less than 7% of the South American nation’s refined copper exports. In 2024, Chile exported roughly $5.72 billion worth of copper to the American market, with China remaining its dominant customer. Mexico, the US fifth largest supplier of refined copper, noted it may redirect its shipments to avoid tariffs from the Trump administration. “Copper is needed in many places around the world, so there are some options there,” President Claudia Sheinbaum said in her daily press conference in Mexico City. Rush to export Despite the uncertainty, the copper industry has tried to move quickly. Benchmark Mineral Intelligence warned that producers are unlikely to ship copper to the US fast enough to avoid tariffs, as journeys from Chile typically take over 20 days. European miners are facing the same logistical hurdle. In anticipation, US importers front-loaded copper shipments in recent months. In the first four months of 2025, they imported 461,000 tonnes of copper, or 232,000 and 148,000 tonnes more than the same periods in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Nvidia hit a $4 trillion market value on Wednesday, becoming the first public company to do so. Its stock rose 2.4% to $164, driven by strong demand for AI technology. Nvidia first passed the $2 trillion mark in February 2024, and first passed the $3 trillion mark in June, now at $4 trillion in Early July. Nvidia is now up about 74% from its April lows, when global markets were jolted from U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff volley. close Source: TradingView.com (click to enlarge) Source: TradingView.com (click to enlarge) more to follow....

Crypto analyst Jaydee has predicted a 50% rally for the XRP price. He highlighted a resistance level, which the altcoin needs to break above on its BTC pair to record this massive uptrend. XRP Price Eyes 50% Rally With Break Above $2.20 In an X post, Jaydee predicted that the XRP price will record a 50% “moonshot” rally once it breaks above the $0.00002 resistance level on its Bitcoin pair. XRP has since broken above this resistance level, suggesting that this moonshot rally may be imminent, with the altcoin surging to as high as $3.35. A rally to $3.35 will bring the XRP price close to its current all-time high (ATH) of $3.84 and also mark a new yearly high for the altcoin. In a subsequent analysis, Jaydee confirmed that XRP could rally to new ATHs with a successful break above this resistance level. On the other hand, he warned that the altcoin could crash to as low as $1.60 if it fails to hold this level on at least the 3-day timeframe. Crypto analyst Guy also recently predicted that the XRP price could rally to a new ATH of $5.30. The analyst indicated that the $2.33 level is the key to kickstarting this uptrend for the altcoin. Once XRP breaks above, he predicts that it will rally to $2.55. A break above this $2.55 level would then pave the way for another rally to the current ATH and the Fibonacci extension at $5.30. Possible Scenarios Following Break Above $2.30 In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades outlined three potential scenarios that could unfold following the XRP price break above $2.30. The first scenario is the cleanest move, in which she predicts that XRP could run towards $2.45, then flips $2.30 into support on a backtest. CasiTrades remarked that this gives the altcoin a solid base for a move to $2.69 and beyond. For the second scenario, the crypto analyst described this as a more aggressive move. In this case, she predicts that the XRP price could record a sharp breakout through $2.30 and head straight to $2.69. From there, she added that the altcoin could pull back to $2.45 as the mid-way support zone before continuing its uptrend. The third scenario is the most bullish for the XRP price. CasiTrades predicts that the altcoin could break through $2.69, confirm this price level as support, and then clear the way towards $3 and above. This would then put the current ATH in sight for the altcoin. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.32, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Ethereum has finally pushed above the critical $2,600 level after weeks of range-bound trading, marking a potential turning point in its price structure. This breakout comes as bullish momentum builds, with Ethereum now preparing for a possible expansion toward the $2,800 resistance level—a zone that has repeatedly rejected upward attempts since early May. The coming days will be decisive in shaping Ethereum’s short-term trajectory, especially if bulls manage to drive the price beyond this key barrier. A breakout above $2,800 would not only signal renewed strength in Ethereum but could also catalyze a broader altcoin rally. Market sentiment is gradually shifting, with traders growing more optimistic amid easing macroeconomic pressures and signs of renewed risk appetite. Top analyst Ted Pillows recently shared an Ethereum chart showing a clear upward breakout from compression. This technical pattern typically precedes strong directional moves, and in this case, it favors the bulls. Pillows suggests that Ethereum is taking the lead while Bitcoin remains in consolidation, indicating that ETH may be setting the pace for the next phase of the crypto cycle. All eyes are now on the $2,800 level, which could unlock significant upside if breached. Ethereum Leads the Charge: Major Move Ahead Since early May, Ethereum has traded within a tight consolidation range between $2,400 and $2,700, unable to break out despite several attempts. This extended period of sideways action has built up pressure, and market participants widely expect the next move to be significant. Bulls have shown resilience, defending demand levels and keeping ETH above the $2,500 mark for several weeks. However, a clear breakout above critical resistance is still needed to confirm a broader bullish trend. Altcoins continue to struggle, with most still trading below key resistance levels. Many analysts agree that a sustained Ethereum breakout is the missing trigger for the long-awaited altseason. Market leadership from ETH has historically marked the start of major altcoin rallies, and the current setup could be no different. Top analyst Ted Pillows shared a 4-hour chart highlighting an upward breakout from a compression pattern just above $2,600. According to Pillow’s analysis, Ethereum is leading the market while Bitcoin remains in a holding pattern below all-time highs. This leadership role for ETH could signal a shift in capital toward altcoins, especially if Ethereum follows through and breaks the $2,800 resistance level. ETH Price Analysis: Upward Momentum Builds Above $2,600 Ethereum (ETH) is showing renewed strength after breaking above the key $2,600 level. The 12-hour chart reveals a bullish structure forming, with ETH currently trading at $2,612.61. This move follows a sustained period of consolidation between $2,400 and $2,600, where buyers consistently defended lower levels. Now, Ethereum is printing higher lows and gradually reclaiming its moving averages. Price is now trading above the 50-period and 100-period simple moving averages (SMAs), currently positioned at $2,483.37 and $2,536.77, respectively. This alignment is bullish and suggests ETH is building momentum for a potential retest of the $2,700–$2,800 resistance zone. A successful break above this area would confirm the breakout from compression and open the door for a more significant rally. Volume remains moderate, but recent green candles show growing buyer interest as ETH pushes upward. The 200-period SMA sits lower at $2,221.56, reflecting Ethereum’s longer-term bullish trend and acting as a strong base of support. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
