  2. Bitcoin spent about nine months stuck below $110 K before finally pushing past that ceiling this month. The move up to $123,000 shows real buying power. According to EliteOptionsTrader, a crypto expert, many investors see this as the start of something bigger. Key Catalysts Driving The Surge Based on examination by EliteOptionsTrader, one of the biggest factors is the potential approval of a spot Ethereum ETF. Bitcoin’s own ETFs have pulled in billions from major institutions, and a greenlight for Ethereum could send more money into crypto overall, lifting Bitcoin further. The US election is now behind us, and talk of Federal Reserve rate cuts in late 2025 is fueling bets on a weaker dollar. Many traders view Bitcoin as a shield against political or economic swings. At the same time, hedge funds, sovereign wealth funds, and pension plans hold only small slices of Bitcoin so far. If they decide to jump in, that could push prices even higher. Long Base Could Support Further Gains Bitcoin’s lengthy base under $110K sets a solid foundation. Breakouts after long periods of sideways action often lead to steep rallies. Still, it’s normal for prices to dip back toward the breakout zone. A pullback to around $115K–$118K could happen before any major surge. Traders will be watching support at $118K and resistance near $125K. Brewing Institutional FOMO Even after the rally, big players have only dipped their toes in. EliteOptionsTrader notes that a major allocation wave—from a large pension fund or insurance giant—could trigger fresh price discovery. And let’s not forget the April 2024 halving, which cut Bitcoin’s daily issuance by half. That supply shock often takes several months to show its full effect, but we’re seeing demand tick up already. Even with a strong start, the path up isn’t without hazards. Sharp corrections of 10%–20% are part of crypto’s genes. Any surprise rules from major markets could stall this run. On Cautious Optimism And Targets If Bitcoin can clear $127K, the odds of a parabolic move rise sharply. Based on analysis by EliteOptionsTrader, a test of $150K in the next few weeks looks within reach. That said, aiming for $250K by year end will require all these factors to line up without a single major setback. Bitcoin’s latest breakout feels exciting, but traders should keep a close eye on how it handles new support levels. Riding the trend can pay off, yet managing risk is just as important as spotting the next high. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
  3. The US Dollar has stayed firmly at the top of the FX leaderboard since last week, extending its rally on the back of resilient macro data and cautious risk sentiment. North American Equity indices, meanwhile, have started to show signs of hesitation as geopolitical tensions rise—especially with renewed tariff discussions weighing on global trade expectations. Both US and Canadian CPI figures came in broadly as expected, which should keep the Fed and the Bank of Canada comfortably on hold for now. As a result, the USD and CAD have both gained ground relative to other majors, supported by stable rate outlooks and a still-robust domestic backdrop. There has also been a recent development in the Middle East with Israel attacking positions in Syria after ongoing conflicts between Syrian and Druze Militias which may continue to generate a rise in the Greenback. Looking ahead, markets are bracing for a period of elevated uncertainty. With geopolitical risks flaring and few clear monetary policy drivers on the horizon, FX and risk assets may enter a more defensive phase over the coming weeks.

  6. The past week has been nothing short of interesting for XRP. Notably, the cryptocurrency has been on an extended run of increases in the past seven days, which saw it momentarily touch the $3 price level for the first time in months. This interesting move came after reports broke of the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval of the ProShares Ultra XRP ETF, which allowed XRP to extend its upward movement. However, this momentum didn’t just affect price; it also had major effects on XRP’s standing in the overall crypto market. XRP Becomes Top 3 Crypto The SEC’s decision to approve the ProShares Ultra XRP ETF, which offers 2x daily exposure through futures contracts, is an interesting milestone for XRP. After years of legal scrutiny and uncertainty, especially following the SEC’s 2020 lawsuit against Ripple, the ETF approval is a remarkable change in the SEC’s stance with XRP. It shows that XRP has not only survived the challenges but has also earned a place in the next phase of institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies. After news of the ProShares ETF approval, XRP rallied sharply and outperformed many other top assets on both the daily and weekly timeframes. This surge came as a continuation of bullish momentum already building from Bitcoin’s recent breakout to new all-time highs above $122,000. However, even while Bitcoin corrected back to below $118,000, XRP managed to keep up with the pace of inflows. At the time of writing, XRP is up by about 25.7% in a seven-day timeframe. This notable increase has allowed its market cap to increase to $173.4 billion, effectively overtaking that of Tether USDT’s market cap of $159.8 billion. This means that XRP is now back to being the third-biggest cryptocurrency by market cap and it is now closing in on Ethereum in rankings. Can The Altcoin Flip ETH? XRP’s climb past USDT in market capitalization reflects both a solid price surge and its strength in the crypto market. The next target on the leaderboard, however, is much more formidable. To flip ETH in market cap, XRP would need to more than double from its current $173.46 billion to exceed Ethereum’s $381.13 billion. Assuming the current circulating supply of 59.13 billion XRP tokens is kept at this level, this translates to a required price of roughly $6.60 per XRP in order to reach a $381.13 billion market cap. XRP overtaking ETH would also be somewhat of a hard task, considering the fact that ETH has also kept up interesting price gains in the past few days. Particularly, the leading altcoin is also up by about 20.2% in the past seven days. Ethereum’s price performance can be attributed to the steady inflows into Spot Ethereum ETFs, which have witnessed $1.55 billion inflows in July. However, XRP still has a chance of overtaking Ethereum, especially when a Spot XRP ETF is approved by the SEC. An important moment could happen on July 25, when the SEC is expected to decide on the REX-Osprey XRP ETF, which is a spot-based ETF. Some analysts believe XRP’s price could skyrocket toward $1,000 under a scenario of full-scale institutional adoption. If that vision materializes, XRP wouldn’t just surpass Ethereum; it would be positioned to compete with Bitcoin in market cap. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.93.
  7. U.S. stock indexes turned negative on Wednesday after Bloomberg News reported, citing a White House official, that President Donald Trump might soon fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. President Trump responded swiftly when asked by denying that he plans to fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Trump called the reports untrue, saying, "I don’t rule out anything, but it’s highly unlikely unless he has to leave for fraud." This comment referred to recent criticism from the White House and Republican lawmakers over cost overruns in the $2.5 billion renovation of the Fed’s historic headquarters in Washington. The impact of this saw stocks whipsaw with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones recovering the initial losses following the Bloomberg report. close Source: TradingView (click to enlarge) Source: TradingView (click to enlarge) Follow Zain on Twitter/X for Additional Market News and Insights @zvawda Opinions are the authors'; not necessarily that of OANDA Business Information & Services, Inc. or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers or directors.

  8. Analysts at Citigroup see silver prices rallying beyond $40 an ounce in the coming months due to tightening physical supplies and growing investment demand. In a note published Wednesday, analysts led by Max Layton raised their three-month silver price forecast from $38 to $40, citing the metal’s strong fundamentals. They also upgraded silver’s longer-term outlook, with a price target of $43 for the next six to 12 months. “We expect silver availability to tighten on consecutive years of deficit, sticky stockholders requiring higher prices to sell, and robust investment demand,” the Citi analysts wrote. Silver has risen by more than 30% this year, outpacing its sister metal gold, as investors seek to expand their exposure to safe-haven assets in the midst of a global trade war. About half of silver’s gains were recorded in June, during which the metal surpassed $39 an ounce for the first time since 2011 and ended the month 10% higher. Click on chart for live prices. Commenting on the recent silver price rally, Citi analysts emphasized that it is “not just a catch-up trade to gold” but also a reflection of strong silver fundamentals. Silver will also advance “on the back of Fed cuts,” the Citi analysts said, referring to expected monetary-policy easing by the US Federal Reserve. Gold warning While a potential monetary easing would also support gold, Citi is more cautious on the traditional safe-haven metal, which has rallied over 27% in 2025 on strong central bank buying and exchange-traded fund inflows. “We continue to highlight our view that we may have seen gold price highs,” the analysts wrote in the note, referencing the record high of $3,500 an ounce achieved back in April. The anticipated pullback in gold, as outlined in the bank’s June report, stems from weakening investment demand, improving economic prospects and anticipated US interest rate cuts. As such, the bank is maintaining its forecast of gold consolidating above $3,000 over the upcoming quarter before declining below that level next year. In the second half of 2026, analysts including Layton are predicting gold to fall further into the $2,500-$2,700 range.
  9. Burgundy Diamond Mines (ASX: BDM), owner of the Ekati diamond mine in Canada’s Northwest Territories, halted trading of its shares on the Australian Securities Exchange on Wednesday, fuelling speculation about its next move. The miner said the trading pause was due to an upcoming operational update, with shares set to resume trading in Sydney on Friday. Adding to the uncertainty, some Ekati workers were reportedly instructed not to travel to the remote site this week, according to local media outlet Cabin Radio. Burgundy acquired Ekati in March 2023 through its $136-million purchase of Arctic Canadian Diamond. Since then, it has grappled with mounting financial pressure amid a downturn in the global diamond market. Earlier this year, Burgundy said it would focus on achieving “financial flexibility” in 2025, including steps to ensure adequate working capital. The company has also undergone significant leadership changes, including the retirement of chief executive officer Kim Truter in May. He was succeeded by Jeremy King. Ekati reached a major milestone in 2024, surpassing 100 million carats produced and sold over its 26-year history. Still, the trading halt comes at a critical time for the region’s diamond industry. All three active diamond mines in NWT face face eventual shutdowns. Rio Tinto’s (ASX, LON, NYSE: RIO) Diavik mine is scheduled to close in 2026, while De Beers’ Gahcho Kué mine is expected to operate until 2030. Ekati’s long-term future remains uncertain. The mines are located hundreds of kilometres northeast of Yellowknife and are accessible only by air or seasonal winter roads. A recent report by research firm Impact Economics warns that mine closures could cost the territory 1,500 jobs and prompt more than 1,100 residents to leave.
  10. After weeks of whisper-quiet consolidation, Ethereum has finally found its voice, roaring through a historically thin price zone with conviction. Backed by heavy volume and strong weekly closes, ETH’s breakout isn’t just technical. The silence is over, and the bulls are back in charge. Weekly Charts Tell The Story: ETH Strength vs. SOL Struggle Cazz, in a recent update on X, highlighted a significant development on the Ethereum weekly chart. The ETH/USD pair has broken out of an 8-week tight consolidation range. This breakout came on the back of high volume and strong weekly closes near the highs. Its rapid price movement through a historically thin zone further confirms that this is classic big money behavior. The technical structure suggests Ethereum’s bullish momentum is not only gaining traction but also aligning with broader institutional interest. This kind of breakout pattern often indicates the start of a stronger trend, especially when accompanied by elevated volume and price conviction as seen on the chart. In contrast, the SOL/ETH chart is showing a completely different story. Cazz pointed out that the pair is breaking down below long-term support on the weekly timeframe. This signals relative weakness and may be a sign that market participants are shifting preference away from SOL in the short and medium term. While Solana could still deliver in isolated moves, the overall structure puts Ethereum as the stronger asset. Cazz’s analysis suggests a shift in market leadership, with Ethereum gaining strength through “classic big money behavior” while Solana shows weakness. As ETH asserts itself as the institutional Layer 1, it could be entering a more dominant phase in the near term. ETH Shifts Gears: From Accumulation To Acceleration According to Cazz, after “more than a year of sideways action and base building,” which he notes “can be a sign of institutions building substantial positions,” ETH appears to be transitioning into a new leadership phase. This shift is backed by strong fundamentals (tokenized treasuries, RWAs, DeFi infra) and upcoming regulatory catalysts, all pointing toward Ethereum’s growing dominance. Cazz highlighted that “Ethereum memes are coming back to life on big volume,” signaling a strong return in community sentiment and trader interest. This renewed energy around Ethereum memes is happening as the price breaks through key levels and narratives regain traction in the market. In his observation, Cazz pointed out that some are already up 5-10x from local bottoms, showcasing just how quickly opportunities are unfolding in the Ethereum ecosystem. Such momentum suggests that the quiet accumulation phase may now be giving way to a more aggressive rally led by both fundamentals and capital rotation.

  12. NexMetals Mining (TSXV: NEXM) (NASDAQ: NEXM) began trading on the NASDAQ on Wednesday, opening at $12 a share with a market capitalization of nearly $260 million. The company first announced its plans to list on the NASDAQ in early May and subsequently completed a 1:20 share consolidation in preparation for the uplisting. Last month, it changed its name from Premium Resources and trading symbol to NEXM. The successful uplisting to NASDAQ is a transformative milestone in our growth strategy,” chief executive officer Morgan Lekstrom stated in a press release Wednesday. As of noon ET, the shares traded at $7.93 apiece for a market capitalization of approximately $172.3 million. “This listing reflects our continued disciplined execution, and our confidence in our renewed strategy to accelerate long-term value for our investors while strengthening our global presence and platform for future strategic partnerships,” Lekstrom added. Redeveloping mines NexMetals’ main assets are two past-producing nickel-copper-cobalt mines in Botswana. The company has been working on the projects since late 2019, with a view to redeveloping them using modern mining methods. The Selebi project, consisting of a single mining license covering 115 sq. km., has an estimated resource of 27.7 million tonnes, a majority of which are in the inferred category. The Selebi Main deposit makes up most of the resource, at nearly 19 million tonnes grading 1.69% copper and 0.88% nickel. The Selebi North deposit, however, has indicated resources. The Selebi deposit was previously mined for 36 years from 1980 to 2016, during which it produced 26.6 million tonnes at grades of 0.58% nickel and 1.03% copper. Selebi North entered production 10 years after and also ended in 2016, producing 13.9 million tonnes at 0.74% nickel and 0.66% copper. The Selkirk project comprises a mining licence covering 14.6 sq. km, plus four prospecting licences covering 126.7 sq. km. The deposit has an estimated inferred resource of 44.2 million tonnes grading 0.24% nickel, 0.30% copper, 0.55 g/t palladium and 0.12 g/t platinum.
  13. The Aqua1 Foundation asserted that it operates independently in response to journalist Jacob Silverman’s report, which suggested potential connections to the controversial market maker Web3Port. However, the foundation left several important questions unanswered. However, amid all of the drama, there are strong rumours that the WLFI crypto token will go live for trading either this week or next. On Monday, Silverman published his investigation, claiming to have found links between the Aqua1 Foundation and Web3Port through shared web hosting and overlapping personnel. There are just a few hours remaining for the governance vote put to WLFI crypto holders on whether to make the token tradable. It is currently at 99.94% in favour of enabling WLFI for trading, and once this vote concludes, a date will likely be announced for WLFI to be listed on the exchanges. A Binance listing seems a foregone conclusion, considering the close ties between World Liberty Financial, its USD1 stablecoin, and its being built on Binance’s BNB Smart Chain. The close ties between the two firms are transparent, so investors can expect a listing on the world’s largest crypto exchange on day one. Coinbase is one high-profile exchange that may not list WLFI on day one due to the ongoing tensions between Binance and its co-founder, CZ, and the World Liberty Financial project. There are rumours that Coinbase orchestrated a recent Bloomberg hit piece on WLFI crypto and CZ, although the exchange has denied these claims. However, aside from Coinbase, traders can expect day-one listings for WLFI on Binance, ByBit, OKX, and other top-tier exchanges due to the hype and demand surrounding this token launch. Exchanges will want to secure their share of the assumed liquidity that will pour into WLFI at launch. Keep an eye on the official World Liberty Financial social media channels for a date and time for when WLFI crypto will go live for trading.

  14. AngloGold Ashanti (JSE: ANG; NYSE: AU) agreed to buy Canadian explorer Augusta Gold (TSX: G; US-OTC: AUGG) for about C$152 million ($111 million) in cash to further expand its Nevada footprint. Augusta shares surged. The C$1.70-a-share price represents a premium of about 28% over Tuesday’s closing price of Augusta Gold’s common stock on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the companies said in separate statements Wednesday. When compared with the volume-weighted average share price over the 20 days before the announcement of the transaction, the premium is 37%. “This transaction is indicative of AngloGold’s camp-scale ambitions in the Beatty district of Nevada,” BMO Capital Markets mining analyst Raj Ray said in a note Wednesday. The proposed deal marks another step in AngloGold Ashanti’s efforts to consolidate assets in and around the prolific Beatty mining district, about 300 km northwest of Las Vegas. It follows the $370 million acquisition of Corvus Gold and the $150 million purchase of a Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE) land package – both of which were announced in 2022. Reward, Bullfrog Augusta’s key assets – Reward, a permitted, feasibility stage project, and the Bullfrog deposit – are adjacent to AngloGold Ashanti’s claims in the Beatty district. “This acquisition reinforces the value we see in one of North America’s most prolific gold districts,” AngloGold Ashanti CEO Alberto Calderon said in the release. “Securing these properties will not only solidify our leading position in the most important new gold district in the US, but will also improve our ability to develop the region under an integrated plan – with more flexibility, greater access, better infrastructure sharing, and cohesive engagement with all stakeholders.” Synergies AngloGold Ashanti’s Nevada projects include Arthur, which has an inferred mineral resource of 12.91 million ounces, according to a 2024 reinterpretation of an earlier geological model. Engineering and study work, which includes a drilling program, is ongoing at Arthur. North Bullfrog, another nearby project, is expected to produce an average of 76,000 oz. gold annually over the mine’s anticipated 11 years. Federal and Nevada permitting processes are under way, and a Record of Decision from the Bureau of Land Management is anticipated by the end of 2026. Adding Augusta “gives the company some synergies with its North Bullfrog project and potential flexibility for future infrastructural needs for its large-scale Arthur project,” Ray at BMO said. Stock surge AngloGold Ashanti’s offer “represents a clearly superior path forward for stockholders,” Augusta Gold executive chairman Richard Warke said in the company’s statement. Augusta shares soared 25% to C$1.66 in Toronto Wednesday morning, giving the company a market value of about C$143 million. The stock is at its highest level since January 2023. AngloGold Ashanti, meanwhile, rose 0.2% in New York to $47.54. Reward has proven and probable mineral reserves of about 15.1 million tonnes grading 0.86 gram per tonne gold for 370,000 oz. contained metal. All required permits are in place to start construction. Augusta’s plan envisions an eight-year mine life with average annual production of 38,563 ounces. Meaningful premium Augusta has also been working to develop Bullfrog, which has measured and indicated resources of about 71 million tonnes grading 1.26 grams silver and 0.53 gram gold, according to a 2022 resource. This translates into contained metal of 2.87 million oz. silver and 1.2 million oz. gold. AngloGold Ashanti’s offer locks in “a meaningful premium and immediate liquidity as compared to waiting for the Reward project to commence construction and then produce by mid-2027,” Warke added. “Constructing the Reward project would require additional dilution to raise the required equity, substantial time for construction, and time to get the mine operating at capacity. Taking the foregoing factors into consideration, the offer from AngloGold Ashanti represents a clearly superior path forward for stockholders.” Q4 close The transaction is expected to close in this year’s fourth quarter. It requires approval by the holders of a majority of Augusta’s common shares, as well as a majority of the votes cast by Augusta Gold common stockholders. AngloGold Ashanti will fund the acquisition – which is not subject to approval by its own shareholders – with existing cash on hand. It will also provide funds for the repayment of stockholder loans representing about $32.6 million as of March 31. Some Augusta directors and executive officers who together own 32% of the company’s issued and outstanding shares have agreed to support the deal. Barrick Mining (TSX: ABX; NYSE: B) holds about 11% of Augusta’s common shares, according to a recent company presentation. Institutions and retail investors control about 47% of the company.
  15. Bitcoin volatility is back on the rise after a dramatic week of price action. On Monday, BTC surged to a new all-time high of $123,200, only to retrace to $115,700 by Tuesday, highlighting the fast-paced, high-stakes environment that has returned to the crypto market. Despite the sharp pullback, the overall trend remains bullish, with price structure and momentum still favoring the bulls. Bitcoin has held above key support levels, and buyers continue to step in on dips, reinforcing confidence in the ongoing uptrend. The recent move is viewed by many as a healthy correction rather than a reversal, especially given the macro backdrop and rising institutional involvement. Adding to the bullish narrative, CryptoQuant data reveals that retail investors are making a comeback. The 30-day change in demand for small BTC transfers (ranging from $0–$10K) is signaling renewed interest from retail investors. Retail Demand Reawakens As Crypto Week Advances In Washington Top analyst Axel Adler has highlighted a critical on-chain signal that points to the return of retail investors in the Bitcoin market. The 30-day change in demand for small transfer volumes ($0–$10K) has moved out of negative territory for the first time in months. This shift indicates a meaningful increase in activity from smaller holders—widely interpreted as retail participants—after a prolonged period of dormancy. Retail involvement plays a crucial role in sustaining long-term bullish trends. While institutional demand often drives initial breakouts, it is the broad participation from everyday investors that adds momentum and staying power to rallies. The reappearance of retail buying interest not only strengthens Bitcoin’s current price structure but also suggests growing confidence in the asset’s outlook, despite recent volatility. This renewed demand comes at a pivotal time. “Crypto Week” is underway in the US Congress, where lawmakers are actively debating and voting on three major cryptocurrency bills. The outcomes of these discussions are expected to shape the regulatory landscape for years to come and could provide the clarity that both retail and institutional investors have long awaited. For now, the uptick in small-scale BTC transfers is a strong signal. That retail investors are re-engaging just as the crypto industry prepares for potentially historic policy changes. BTC Holds Above $118K After Reclaiming Breakout Zone Bitcoin is currently trading at $118,914 on the daily chart. After a sharp rally pushed it to a new all-time high of $123,200 earlier this week. The price has since retraced, but BTC continues to hold above key support levels, signaling bullish resilience. The recent dip toward $117,000 was met with buyer interest, as seen in the long lower wick and a moderate bounce on rising volume. The chart shows that BTC is comfortably trading above the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs). Currently at $108,040, $102,116, and $97,362, respectively—all of which are upward sloping. This confirms a strong bullish structure, with momentum still favoring buyers in the medium to long term. With volatility increasing and volume surging, Bitcoin’s consolidation above $118K could act as a launchpad for a second leg higher. A strong close above $120K would likely confirm continued bullish momentum heading into the final stretch of “Crypto Week.” Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
  16. Newmont (NYSE, ASX: NEM, TSX: NGT) says it has netted around $470 million from selling equity stakes in Greatland Resources (ASX: GGP) and Discovery Silver (TSX: DSV) as part of ongoing efforts to generate cash for its core mining business. In February 2024, the world’s largest gold miner announced plans to divest certain non-core assets, including six mines across Canada, Australia and Ghana, to improve its cash position and optimize its portfolio by focusing on “higher-quality, Tier 1 assets.” In a press release Tuesday, the Denver, Colorado-based company said its monetization of Greatland and Discovery shares further streamlines Newmont’s equity portfolio, while generating cash for the business. Newmont received the shares through its divestment of the Telfer operation (along with a 70% stake in the Havieron project) in Australia to Greatland Gold and the Porcupine operation in Ontario to Discovery Silver. Following the asset sales, Newmont held approximately 20.4% of Greatland Gold and 14.95% of Discovery Silver. In its disclosure, Newmont said it sold about half of the Greatland Gold shares last month, realizing a 230% gain relative to their value from September 2024, when the Telfer-Havieron asset sales were announced. It now holds approximately 9.9% of the Australian miner. The Discovery Silver shares were sold in two tranches, one in May and one in June, for a combined 200% return from January 2025, the time of the Porcupine transaction announcement. Newmont is no longer a shareholder in Discovery. $3B cash expected In its statement Tuesday, Newmont said that with the share sales, it now expects to generate $3 billion in after-tax cash proceeds from its divestiture program in 2025 to support capital allocation priorities. The miner added that it remains on track to deliver on its 2025 guidance, while continuing to generate strong free cash flow from its “world-class portfolio” of high-quality, long-life assets. Its stock traded 1.3% higher at Wednesday’s market open at $58.08 in New York, with a market capitalization of $64 billion.
  17. A month ago, one of our Crypto market analysis had mentioned the scenario of Ethereum retaking some of the relative strength it had heavily lost in the beginning of 2025, notably leaving some space for Solana to outperform the second largest cryptocurrency. Now, since its War lows, the Ether has had a stellar run – Since its 2,174 lows on June 21st, the crypto rallied back close to 50%, leading to the ETH/BTC ratio looking poised for a decent breakout. The ratio has just broken out to the upside of its Range which calls for an ETH Technical Analysis.

  18. Bitcoin BTC ▲2.02% is entering what Deutsche Bank analysts describe as a “less volatile, more sustainable age.” As Bitcoin recently surges past $123,000 to set a new all-time high, its price swings have simultaneously calmed. Deutsche Bank analyst Marion Laboure said that Bitcoin’s latest rally has been accompanied by a “historic decline in volatility.” Talking to CNBC on 15 July 2025, Laboure said, “While excitement over the upcoming legislation has spurred Bitcoin’s sharp appreciation, it is notable that Bitcoin’s rise has also been accompanied by a historic decline in volatility levels.” “This combination suggests we are potentially starting to witness a gradual decoupling between Bitcoin’s spot prices and volatility,” he added. Yes, traditionally Bitcoin has been notorious for its fluctuations. However, as the crypto climbed roughly 75% from mid-November 2024 to July 2025, its safe to say BTC’s volatility dropped markedly. Trump has been vocal about making the US a leader in digital assets and threw his support behind the legislation. After the vote failed, he brought lawmakers to the White House to regroup. Later, he posted that 11 of the 12 holdout Republicans had agreed to move forward with a new vote the next day. Whether that happens remains to be seen. “Volatility remains inherent, but these conditions suggest Bitcoin’s integration into portfolios is maturing, and potentially signals a more sustainable trend beyond previous instances of short-term market speculation,” said Laboure.

But this time, targeted groups would be institutional clients through regulated infrastructures for storing and managing digital assets like BTC ▲2.02% and tokenized deposits. Partnering with Bitpanda and Taurus SA, the bank aims to establish itself as a serious player in the institutional-grade crypto services. But this is not something that has been brewing recently. This move follows years of behind-the-scenes development and growing support from regulators across Europe and the US. DISCOVER: Best New Cryptocurrencies to Invest in 2025 Key Takeaways Deutsche Bank analyst Marion Laboure notes that Bitcoin’s latest rally has been accompanied by a “historic” decline in volatility. Bitcoin is increasingly recognized as a legitimate asset class, not just a speculative gamble.

  19. USDJPY has been the most affected major pair since the US Dollar reversal that happened since July 1st, rising to a maximum of 6464 pips (around 4.50%), a consequential move in Forex. Beyond the position covering due to oversold and overpositions US Dollars adding to a conclusion of a weekly Head and Shoulders in the Dollar Index, Yen traders haven't been able to find any fundamental reason to be long that currency. Japan's monetary policy, despite being more hawkish than the past 20 years, is still loose – especially compared to the US which keeps pushing back their cuts (strong data obliges). Furthermore, a lack of new communication from the Bank of Japan is also considered as a hesitancy to turn more hawkish – This comes despite a Japanese inflation that has been strong for some months now. BoJ Speakers still estimate that inflation might not be solidly anchored to their long-term targets and such words are once again considered dovish. There has been a trend of the CHF overpassing the Yen in terms of the best option of a Safe-Haven currency, notably due to a more historically stable Franc, with the Swiss National Bank having a much more durable balance sheet. This had led to major financial outflows towards the Franc at the expense of the Yen. Also, do not forget that Trump sent a letter menacing 25% tariffs on Japan that would deeply hurt its export-centered Economy. But all of this just explains the fundamental themes that brought the pair here in the past weeks – let's take a look at what technicals will move the pair for upcoming trading.

  20. Australia’s richest person is urging Rio Tinto’s (ASX, LON: RIO) incoming chief executive, Simon Trott, to move the company’s headquarters to Western Australia, while casting doubt on the miner’s Simandou iron ore project in Guinea. Gina Rinehart, whose Hancock Prospecting holds multiple iron ore joint ventures with Rio, made the comments as the miner reported its lowest first-half iron ore export volumes in a decade. Severe cyclones earlier this year caused widespread flooding and logistical disruptions, hitting Rio’s Pilbara operations hard. The company shipped 150.6 million tonnes of iron ore between January and June, down 4.9% from the same period last year. While second-quarter shipments rebounded 13% to 79.9 million tonnes, the gains weren’t enough to offset the earlier slump. Rio now faces pressure to accelerate exports if it hopes to meet its 2025 goal of at least 323 million tonnes. In a congratulatory message to Trott, Rio’s first Australian-born chief executive since Sam Walsh (2013-2016), Rinehart offered congratulations along with a pointed suggestion. “Congratulations to Simon! When Sam Walsh went from iron ore chief to CEO, I suggested that he transfer Rio headquarters to where it makes most of its money, Western Australia,” she said as quoted by the Australian Financial Review. “Still think this would be good for WA, and much safer than Guinea!” With the comment, Rinehart took a swipe at Rio’s Simandou project, which some have called the the “Pilbara killer” due to its potential to rival or surpass the Pilbara region as the world’s leading iron ore hub. Rio has pushed back on that label, instead calling Simandou a “Pilbara enabler”. Rio said Wednesday that Simandou is on track to ship its first ore by November, with up to one million tonnes expected before the end of 2025. Despite the African ambitions, Rio continues to pour capital into its Australian operations. The company has pledged more than $13 billion for new mines and equipment in the Pilbara through 2028. As part of that investment drive, Rio and Hancock Prospecting agreed last month to jointly spend $1.6 billion on the Hope Downs 2 project, which includes the Hope Downs 2 and Bedded Hilltop deposits.
  21. Mary-Catherine Lader just stepped down as President and COO of Uniswap Labs after a four-year run that transformed the platform into the biggest decentralized exchange on Ethereum. During her time at the helm, Uniswap went from scrappy startup to DeFi juggernaut, pulling in over $73B in trading volume in the last month alone. That number alone has crypto optimists buzzing. So what’s next? Well, as Uniswap looks for its next leader, the rest of DeFi is doing what it does best – evolving fast. New crypto projects are stepping up to fill the innovation gap and take decentralized finance to the next level. And in true Web3 fashion, it’s not just about serious finance anymore. Why Lader’s Exit Matters Mary-Catherine Lader wasn’t just another name on the masthead. She was a driving force behind Uniswap’s rise to dominance in decentralized finance. Joining as President and COO in 2021, she played a central role in turning Uniswap from a developer-first protocol into a fully operational, structured business. Under her leadership, the company raised $165M in October 2022, achieving a valuation of $1.66B. But perhaps her most impressive feat was navigating the SEC investigation that loomed over Uniswap for nearly a year. That probe concluded in February 2025 with no enforcement action, a massive win for the entire DeFi sector. Lader’s departure after this victory feels intentional – a well-timed baton pass now that Uniswap stands on solid ground. It’s a clear signal: Uniswap is strong, mature, and ready for what’s next. Just like the DeFi ecosystem it helped build. Let’s take a look at three top meme coins that could ride this next wave. 1. Best Wallet Token ($BEST) – Your DeFi Wallet Just Got Smarter With DeFi entering a more mature phase, thanks to leaders like Mary-Catherine Lader pushing for transparency and regulation, it’s no surprise that users are demanding smarter tools. Enter Best Wallet Token ($BEST), a next-gen crypto wallet aiming to outpace clunky legacy apps like MetaMask with advanced features, clean design, and serious security. Right now, you can buy $BEST for just $0.025335, and the project has already pulled in a hefty $13.9M during the presale. That’s not hype – it’s momentum. Best Wallet is packed with features that make it feel more like Apple Wallet (if Apple actually cared about DeFi). Its standout tool? Upcoming Tokens, which lets you buy presale tokens safely and directly inside the app – no sketchy mirror sites or third-party scams. Add to that Fireblocks-powered MPC-CMP security, reduced transaction fees, iGaming perks, and governance rights, and $BEST starts looking like a wallet token with real-world muscle. If Uniswap’s $73B surge fuels optimism for meme coins, $BEST is where you might safely store them. 2. SUBBD Token ($SUBBD) – Turning Clout Into Crypto The creator economy is booming, but most platforms still take a massive cut while leaving creators fighting for scraps. SUBBD Token ($SUBBD) wants to change that by putting the power – and earnings – back into the hands of influencers, artists, and yes, even meme lords. Built as the first AI-driven, premium content platform on the blockchain, SUBBD lets users create and monetize content with game-changing tools. At the core is an AI agent that automates chat, edits videos, and helps creators engage fans without burning out. And with over 250M combined followers across SUBBD’s platform, Honny brand, and ambassador network, it’s already got a massive audience primed for Web3. Currently, you can buy $SUBBD for $0.055925, with $810K raised in presale – a strong signal of early traction. $SUBBD also offers 20% APY staking during the presale, plus real-time, low-fee crypto payments that make tipping and subscribing a breeze. In a DeFi world shaped by leaders like Mary-Catherine Lader, who bridged traditional finance with blockchain, $SUBBD is extending that legacy – bringing AI and creator freedom to the next generation of decentralized platforms. 3. Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) – Meme Power Meets Layer‑2 Muscle Following Uniswap’s $73B surge, DeFi’s energy isn’t confined to Ethereum alone. Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) seizes that momentum by launching the first meme‑focused Layer‑2 blockchain built on Ethereum. It combines the fun of meme coins with real utility, offering zero‑tax trading, lightning‑fast, low‑fee transactions, bot protection, staking, and DAO governance. Currently, 1 $LILPEPE = $0.0015, and its presale has raised $7,2M. That funding level underscores enthusiastic backing for its vision: a Layer‑2 chain for memes. The heart of the project is the Little Pepe Chain – EVM‑compatible, ultra‑scalable infrastructure built to launch new tokens via a meme launchpad, protect users from sniper bots, and host NFTs. It aims for seamless edge utility for creators and traders alike, reflecting the kind of platform Uniswap’s surge inspires. Alongside blockchain utility, it boasts a $777K giveaway, strong community traction, and plans for Tier‑1 exchange listings – that’s meme culture backed by infrastructure. As Uniswap settles into its next chapter, Little Pepe shows how the Uniswap $73B surge fuels optimism for meme coins – fusing humor, community, and real tech into the future of DeFi. The Torch Is Being Passed Lader’s exit doesn’t mean DeFi is slowing down. If anything, it’s accelerating. With projects like $BEST, $SUBBD, and $LILPEPE stepping up, the crypto world might be entering a new golden age – one that’s decentralized, community-driven, and just a little chaotic.

  22. Crypto analyst DOGECAPITAL has drawn attention to a Fibonacci level, which suggests that the Dogecoin price could rally above $10 in this bull run. The analyst noted that DOGE previously reached this Fibonacci level, which suggests it may do so again in this cycle. Dogecoin Price Eyes Rally Above $10 With This Fibonacci Level In an X post, DOGECAPITAL predicted that the Dogecoin price could rally above $10 if it reaches the 423.6% Fibonacci level. The analyst used the Fibonacci tool to highlight the fact that both the first and second DOGE cycles topped at the 423.6% level. Based on this, the foremost meme coin could reach this level, surpassing the $10 target. Interestingly, DOGECAPITAL noted that should history repeat itself, the Dogecoin price could rally to as high as $36, which is where the 423.6% is. This could mark the potential top for the meme coin in this cycle. The analyst also confirmed that DOGE is nowhere near its top in this third cycle based on the historical timing of past cycles. If this historical pattern keeps playing out, DOGECAPITAL predicts that the projected top for the Dogecoin price could occur around the final week of October. The analyst also believes that the market has entered DOGE season with Bitcoin reaching new all-time highs (ATHs) and the meme coin currently sitting near key support. However, despite the current bullish sentiment in the crypto market, it is worth noting that the Dogecoin price is still sitting just below the psychological $0.2 level. As such, this raises doubts about whether the DOGE season has truly begun. Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade stated that the DOGE/BTC chart may show a God candle this season, which would kickstart the DOGE season. Meanwhile, crypto analyst Kevin Capital noted that the DOGE/BTC chart is sitting in a historical zone of support. He added that the monthly time frame indicators are also fully reset, providing the best setup for the Dogecoin price. DOGE Eyes Rally To $0.25 In The Short Term In an X post, crypto analyst Ali Martinez predicted that the Dogecoin price could rally to $0.25 in the short term. Alluding to DOGE’s daily chart, Martinez stated that the meme coin is trading within a channel and that it just bounced off the bottom. He added that a buying spike at this level could send DOGE to the top of the channel at $0.25. This level is significant as it marked the last local top for the Dogecoin price. As such, a successful break above this level could lead to higher prices for the meme coin. Meanwhile, Trader Tardigrade stated that DOGE’s daily RSI might find support soon, completing a healthy pullback and preparing for a new surge. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.19, up over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
  23. BlackRock spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw $14.1B in Q2 2025 inflows, pushing digital assets under management to $79.6B. With Bitcoin hitting $123,000 and institutional adoption soaring, more is expected. With crypto prices soaring and Bitcoin breaching $123,000 this week, HODLers and traders are riding a wave of optimism. The surge in spot valuation, nearing record highs, is partly due to the institutionalization of crypto following the approval of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2024. BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, is a major player in the spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF market. It issues billions in digital asset-backed shares to institutions, primarily in the United States. DISCOVER: Next 1000X Crypto: 10+ Crypto Tokens That Can Hit 1000x in 2025 BlackRock Sees $14.1 Billion in Inflows to Spot Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs in Q2 2025 According to their recent earnings report, BlackRock, which focuses solely on spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs and does not offer products for other altcoins, reported $14.1 billion in net inflows into its spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in Q2 2025. This influx boosted its digital assets under management (AUM) to $79.6 billion. The growth signals that crypto assets are becoming a big part of global finance, buoying capital flow into some of the best meme coin ICOs. Wall Street is increasingly monitoring the space, and institutions are eager to gain exposure to these non-yielding assets. As expected, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) accounted for the majority of inflows, driving growth and redefining the global ETF landscape as the fastest-growing ETF in history. Data shows IBIT currently manages $84.16 billion as of July 15, with steady inflows since June 9. Meanwhile, its ETHA product for spot Ethereum ETFs manages $6.6 billion, with consistent inflows since July 3. (Source: SosoValue) Their spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF products collectively manage over $90 billion. However, according to official SEC filings, their total stood at $79.6 billion in Q2 2025, representing just 1% of BlackRock’s $12.5 trillion in assets under management (AUM). In Q2 2025, BlackRock earned $40 million in fees as net inflows rose by $14.1 billion. The Trend Will Only Continue With rising crypto prices, including those of the top Solana meme coins, investors are increasingly exploring regulated assets like spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. BitcoinPriceMarket CapBTC$2.37T24h7d30d1yAll time On July 15, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows of over $402 million, while spot Ethereum ETFs recorded over $192 million in net flows. As BTC ▲2.02% prices rally, IBIT will only continue to break records. It became the first ETF to reach $80 billion in AUM in less than two years. In comparison, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) took nearly six years to reach this milestone. IBIT currently holds over 717,000 BTC, or 3.4% of the total Bitcoin supply, surpassing MicroStrategy’s 601,550 BTC but trailing Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallet, which holds 1 million BTC. (Source: Bitcoin Treasuries) Beyond rising crypto prices, the Donald Trump administration’s policies encourage institutional investment in digital assets. Proposals for a Bitcoin Reserve in the United States and reduced regulatory barriers are boosting investor confidence. This is further supported by Donald Trump’s Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which has taken steps to launch spot Bitcoin ETFs. In early June, TMTG filed an S-1 registration statement with the SEC to launch the Trust Social Bitcoin ETF. A month earlier, NYSE Arca filed a 19b-4 form for Yorkville America Digital, a close TMTG partner.

  24. Ethereum is trading confidently above the $3,100 level after breaking through this key resistance with strength, signaling a potential shift in market dynamics. While Bitcoin experiences a short-term pullback from its all-time highs, Ethereum’s upward move highlights growing momentum across the altcoin sector. Bulls are increasingly optimistic, viewing this divergence as a sign that capital may be rotating into ETH and other high-conviction altcoins. Fueling this optimism is a combination of improving technicals and strengthening fundamentals. One of the most notable developments came today, as SharpLink Gaming—one of the first Nasdaq-listed companies to adopt an Ethereum-focused treasury strategy—purchased an additional $19,560,000 worth of ETH. The combination of strong price action, increasing corporate interest, and supportive on-chain metrics suggests that Ethereum could be leading the next leg of the altcoin rally, especially if Bitcoin continues to consolidate and investors shift focus to undervalued opportunities across the ecosystem. SharpLink Becomes Largest Corporate Holder Of Ethereum SharpLink Gaming has officially become the largest corporate holder of Ethereum, with a total of 280,706 ETH now held in its treasury, valued at approximately $840 million at current market prices. The company’s aggressive accumulation strategy signals a new phase in institutional Ethereum adoption, reinforcing the growing perception of ETH as a long-term strategic asset. Top analyst Ted Pillows confirmed SharpLink’s latest purchase using on-chain data, which shows that the ETH was acquired through a Coinbase Prime hot wallet—a platform commonly used by institutions for large-scale crypto transactions. According to a press release, SharpLink raised $413 million through the issuance of over 24 million new shares between July 7 and July 11, capital it promptly deployed into the crypto market. In total, the firm acquired 74,656 ETH over the past week at an average price of $2,852 per coin. This aggressive buying spree not only reflects SharpLink’s treasury strategy but also highlights a broader trend among institutional players of turning to ETH as a core asset. As traditional companies seek alternatives to cash and government bonds, Ethereum’s maturing ecosystem and growing staking participation make it an increasingly compelling option. SharpLink’s bold move may inspire other public firms to explore ETH as a reserve asset. ETH Weekly Chart Signals Trend Reversal Ethereum is showing strong bullish momentum on the weekly chart. The price is currently trading at $3,155.21, up over 6% for the week. The breakout above the key resistance zone at $2,850 is now confirmed. Marking a significant shift in market structure after months of consolidation and bearish pressure. This move pushes ETH to its highest weekly close since early 2024. Technically, Ethereum has reclaimed all major moving averages: the 50-week SMA ($2,645), 100-week SMA ($2,659), and 200-week SMA ($2,427). This alignment supports a longer-term bullish reversal and confirms that momentum has shifted in favor of buyers. The clean break above the previous resistance adds strength to the move. And sets the stage for a potential rally toward the $3,600–$3,800 range in the coming weeks. The reclaim of $2,850—a zone that had acted as strong resistance for months—now flips into support. If Ethereum continues to hold this level on a weekly closing basis, it will likely attract more institutional attention. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

  26. Ripple is firing on all cylinders as it moves forward with its newly formed venture to boost Dubai’s real estate tokenisation. In a press release published on 15 July 2025, Ripple revealed its partnership with the DLD (Dubai Land Development) authority and Ctrl Alt, a London-based fintech company specialising in tokenising alternative assets. “This is the first time a government real estate registration authority in the Middle East has tokenised property title deeds on a public blockchain,” said Reece Merrick, Managing Director, Middle East and Africa, at Ripple. Per the press release, the collaboration hinges on Ripple’s institutional-grade custody technology to securely store critical data such as tokenised property title deeds, issued on the XRP ledger. Ctrl Alt, which recently got licensed by the Dubai Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA), will leverage Ripple’s tech stack to power its role as the core tokenisation engine for tokenising Dubai’s real estate, becoming the first in the UAE to offer issuer-based services. “That the DLD has chosen the XRPL for this is really exciting and reinforces the XRPL’s credentials as the blockchain of choice for serious financial use cases,” he further added. Furthermore, with this venture, Ctrl Alt has become Ripple’s first major custody partner in the UAE. Explore: Top Solana Meme Coins to Buy in July 2025 Ripple’s Continued Efforts to Tokenise Dubai’s Real Estate Market This is not the first time that Ripple has partnered with the DLD and Ctrl Alt on a tokenisation project. In May 2025, Ripple, the DLD, Ctrl Alt, and PRYPCO, a Dubai-based proptech (property technology) company, collaborated to pilot test Prypco Mint, the Middle East’s first tokenised real estate crypto investment platform. This VARA-backed project aims to tokenise property titles, enabling fractional ownership and streamlining investments via blockchain. The project leverages the XRP ledger system to enable Dubai residents to invest in fractional real estate starting from Dh 2000 (approximately $500). March 2025 saw Dubai launch the first phase of its real estate tokenisation project as a means to introduce a method by which investors could co-own properties through digital tokens. The initiative aims to expand access to home ownership, foster innovation in the real estate sector, and enhance awareness of virtual asset services. Importantly, the initiative also aims to attract global virtual asset companies to shop in Dubai, within a regulated framework that safeguards investors and stakeholders.

  27. Chilean miner Antofagasta (LON: ANTO) reported on Wednesday an almost 11% increase in copper production for the first half of 2025, driven by stronger output from its Los Pelambres and Centinela operations. The company, Chile’s largest copper miner after the state-owned Codelco, produced 314,900 tonnes of copper between January and June, up from 284,700 tonnes during the same period in 2024. Second-quarter production reached 160,000 tonnes, matching analyst forecasts. “Overall a better-than-expected Q2/25, with copper production in line with our forecast and lower cash costs, implying a positive tailwind from by-products,” BMO Metals & Mining analyst Alexander Pearce said in a note. Despite the increase, Antofagasta — which operates four copper mines in Chile — maintained its 2025 guidance at 660,000 to 700,000 tonnes. It also reaffirmed its capital expenditure target of $3.9 billion, one of the largest sums ever earmarked by the company, as it ramps up expansions in Chile and neighbouring Peru. “Our conviction in copper as the metal of the future remains, with a positive outlook for copper over the medium-term,” chief executive officer Iván Arriagada said. “We see continuing demand support in the form of rising uses from key strategic sectors, driven by accelerating structural trends, such as energy security and modern technologies needed for decarbonization, artificial intelligence and infrastructure, with a supply-side that is becoming increasingly constrained.” Much of the investment is going toward key development projects, including a new concentrate pipeline at Los Pelambres and a second concentrator at Centinela. Both are advancing on schedule and within budget. Los Pelambres. (Image courtesy of Antofagasta plc.) Antofagasta expects Los Pelambres to deliver another 25 years of production and value creation. The mine output came to 320,000 tonnes last year, ranking just outside the top 10 producers globally. The $4.4 billion Nueva Centinela project, approved in late 2023, will add 144,000 tonnes copper-equivalent a year to its overall production. The expansion includes upgrades to the molybdenum plant and development of the Esperanza Sur pit, where it is deploying autonomous trucks. Antofagasta noted the approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for its Zaldívar mine in the second quarter of the year. This will allow production continue through 2051. Aiming for the Top 10 Antofagasta, majority-owned by Chile’s Luksic family, one of the country’s wealthiest, has set its sights on becoming one of the world’s top ten copper producer. The miner has made several strategic moves in pursuit of that goal, including its 2023 acquisition of a 19% stake in Peru’s Minera Buenaventura. The miner also has a presence in the US, through its subsidiary Twin Metals. The unit has been trying for over a decade to develop an underground copper-nickel mine and processing facility near Minnesota’s Birch Lake. The project was dealt a major blow in 2023, when the Biden administration cancelled Twin Metals’ two long-standing mineral leases and imposed a 20-year mining moratorium in the area..Antofagasta has since been fighting to get its licences restored. Last week, CEO Arriagada said he saw “an opportunity” to advance the long-stalled project, following President Donald Trump’s move to impose a 50% import tariff on copper. The move is seen by some as a signal of increased support for domestic mining. _____________ Monitor the live copper price with MINING.COM’s real-time chart, updated every minute.
