On-chain data shows that the Bitcoin short-term holders have switched to loss-taking recently. Here’s what this could mean for the asset. Bitcoin Short-Term Holder SOPR Has Dropped Below 1.0 In a new post on X, the on-chain analysis platform Checkonchain has talked about how the behavior of the Bitcoin short-term holders has changed recently. The indicator shared by Checkonchain is the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR), which tells us about whether the BTC investors are selling/moving their coins at a profit or loss. When the value of the metric is greater than 1, it means the holders as a whole are participating in profit-taking. On the other hand, it being under the m…

Another week has come to a close, bringing massive changes to the Asian crypto landscape. From regulatory changes and bringing the heat to crypto scammers to raising capital, a lot has happened this week in the Asian crypto landscape. Here’s the top three rundown. UAE’s VARA And SCA Unite To Streamline Crypto Regulations Coming in hot from West Asia, Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) and the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) have collaborated to harmonise their approach towards crypto regulation. The regulatory bodies formalised their partnership after declaring their intention to work together in September last year. According to an art…

Ripple chief technology officer (CTO) David “JoelKatz” Schwartz used a late-Wednesday post on X to frame a surge of payments and stablecoin companies launching their own base-layer networks as validation of blockchain’s role in finance—and to restate how the XRP Ledger’s design differs from the new entrants. “We’ve been seeing more and more players in the payments and stablecoins space launch their own blockchains. To me, that’s a clear sign the market sees blockchain as core financial infrastructure — something we’ve believed in and have been building toward on the XRP Ledger for over 13 years,” he wrote, adding, “Launching a blockchain is hard. Building an ecosystem wi…

On Monday, the EUR/USD pair resumed its decline against forecasts but during the day still reversed in favor of the euro and consolidated above the 76.4% Fibonacci level at 1.1695. Thus, today the growth process may continue toward the resistance zone of 1.1789–1.1802. A new close below 1.1695 would work in favor of the U.S. dollar and a fresh decline toward the support zone of 1.1637–1.1645. The wave situation on the hourly chart remains simple and clear. The last completed upward wave broke the previous wave's peak, while the new downward wave has not yet broken the previous low. Therefore, the trend remains "bearish" for now. Recent labor market data and shifting ex…

When you hold a Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle in your hand, you’re not just holding a piece of gold—you’re holding a masterpiece born from ambition, artistry, and a pivotal era in American history. It’s not hyperbole to say this coin changed everything. Some call it the most beautiful coin the U.S. has ever produced. But what’s the story behind this legendary gold piece? And why has it captivated collectors and investors for over a century? Let’s take a walk through history to discover what makes the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle a true American treasure. A President’s Vision: Theodore Roosevelt’s “Pet Crime” At the dawn of the 20th century, President Theodore Roosevelt wasn’…

The United States has imposed tariffs on imports of one-kilogram and 100-ounce gold bars, in a move that could disrupt global bullion flows and deal major blows to key gold hubs like Switzerland, the Financial Times reported late on Thursday. A Customs and Border Protection letter dated July 31 — later seen by FT sources — shows that these gold bars have now been reclassified under a customs code subject to duties, reversing earlier expectations that they would remain exempt. The tariff reversal comes amid heightened trade tensions between Bern and Washington, as the latter recently slapped a 39% import tariff on the European nation. Switzerland, as the world’…

The gold mining sector continues to rely on older discoveries for reserve growth despite a sustained gold price rally in recent years, an annual analysis by S&P Global finds. According to the database of gold discoveries tracked by S&P, the gold sector added three new major discoveries in 2024, taking the global inventory (reserves, resources and past production) to nearly 3 billion oz. across 353 deposits. The gold ounces represent an increase of 3% or 82 million oz. over 2023, which had 350 deposits containing a total of 2.9 billion oz. Credit: S&P Global The S&P analysis points out that — consistent with its previous reports — almost all o…

Bitcoin is holding firm above the $115,000 level after several days of trading below it, signaling renewed strength in the market. The bullish tone is building as Ethereum posts massive gains and altcoins begin to show strong moves over the past few days. For some analysts, this could be the start of the long-awaited altseason; for others, it’s simply the rest of the market catching up to Bitcoin’s earlier rally. Top analyst Axel Adler noted that Bitcoin’s price is now trading close to its all-time high, with the BTC Z-Score (Price, 30/365) sitting around +1.5σ above its one-year norm. This reading is well below the +2.5σ level typically associated with overheating, sug…

James Howells, the British man who famously lost access to 8,000 Bitcoin in a 2013 landfill accident, is setting the record straight. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Howells pushed back against recent social media claims that he has abandoned his search. He firmly denied the rumors and revealed a new strategy to reclaim his lost fortune, now worth roughly $923 million. Although he’s no longer seeking permission from his local council to search the landfill, he’s far from done. Howells Debunks Rumors, Plans To Turn His Lost $1 Billion In Bitcoin Into Ceiniog Coin In the post shared on X, Howells confirmed he has not given up and slammed years of rejection from Newport Ci…

Earlier last week, the USD/JPY surged to a four-month high of 150.92 on 1 August, but its prior accumulated gains of the previous four sessions were all wiped out and formed a weekly bearish “Shooting Star” at the close of last Friday, 1 August US session. These observations suggest a potential bullish breakout on the USD/JPY above the key 200-day moving average and the upper boundary of its medium-term ascending range configuration in place from the 22 April 2025 low as it reintegrated back below the 149.50 level. Since the start of this week, 4 August, through today’s Asian session on 8 August, the Japanese yen has lagged behind other major currencies against the gr…

Earlier today, Bitcoin (BTC) surged past $122,000 for the first time since July 13, coming close to a new all-time high (ATH) before paring some gains, trading slightly above $119,500 at the time of writing. Bitcoin Eyes New ATH With Retail-Driven Rally According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor ShayanMarkets, the average executed order size in the Bitcoin futures market has declined significantly over the past few months. This suggests that the recent price rally is being driven primarily by retail investors rather than institutional players. For context, the average executed order size is calculated by dividing the total traded volume by the numb…

Ethereum’s price action in the past seven days has been nothing short of interesting. During this period, the leading altcoin has surged past $4,000 for the first time since December 2024 and is also now trading above $4,200, reclaiming a level it last held in 2021.

Ripple Labs formally pushed back against a new US Senate draft bill – the Responsible Financial Innovation Act of 2025 – aimed at regulating the cryptocurrency market. The company behind the XRP Ledger warned that the proposed legislation could grant the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) excessive and indefinite power over major digital assets. In a detailed response submitted on 5 August 2025, Ripple argued that the bill in its current form would create more confusion than clarity. The company warned that the bill could stifle innovation and subject established tokens like XRP, Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL) to perpetual regulatory oversight. “The draft crea…

The Chainlink (LINK) market has registered strong bullish action in recent days amidst a general market rebound. Data from CoinMarketCap reports that LINK’s price has increased by 29.75% in the past week, allowing the altcoin to emerge as one of the top market gainers in this period. Interestingly, prominent market analyst Ali Martinez has identified another encouraging trend underneath this positive price action. Chainlink Whale Activity Surges With 8.10 Million LINK Purchase In an X post on August 8, Ali Martinez reports a major rise in whale accumulation on the Chainlink network. Notably, these investors holding between 100,000 and 1,000,000 LINK tokens have collect…

Chainlink’s growing role in SWIFT’s blockchain integration is drawing comparisons to XRP’s long-standing ambitions in the same sector. Reports have disclosed that SWIFT already uses Chainlink technology to connect more than 11,000 banks to public and private blockchains, a move some believe gives Chainlink an edge in real-world adoption. Chainlink’s Ties With Global Finance Supporters point out that Chainlink’s work now spans major financial players such as the DTCC, Mastercard, central banks, and top asset managers. The collaboration with SWIFT is central to this progress, enabling data and transaction flows between multiple blockchains. When asked which blockchain …

On November 16, Chileans will head to the polls to elect their next president, who will govern until 2030 and, in doing so, set the course for the country’s most important economic engine: its mining sector. At stake is the future of Codelco, the state-owned copper giant that helped build modern Chile but is now drowning in debt, stuck with aging infrastructure and recovering from years of production declines. Once a source of national pride, Codelco has been teetering on the edge of an industrial crisis. As of December last year, the company’s debt has ballooned to over $20 billion and production was slowly edging higher after hitting a 25-year low in 2022. …

Bitcoin is entering a critical phase after losing the crucial $115,000 support level, with selling pressure mounting across key timeframes. The bullish momentum that previously fueled upside moves has faded, and price action now signals growing market weakness. As investor sentiment shifts from cautious optimism to concern, fears of a deeper correction below $110,000 are gaining traction among analysts. According to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler, Bitcoin has established a short-term resistance level at $112,000—a constructive sign that the market is attempting to stabilize. However, Adler warns that the $112K–$105K zone remains structurally fragile, acting as a buffer …

The Binance Coin (BNB) market is showing high levels of bullishness, marked by an 8.92% price gain in the past week. The Binance exchange’s native cryptocurrency now trades above $800 and is merely 6% from returning to its all-time high figure. Interestingly, striking similarities between BNB’s current chart structure and Bitcoin’s trajectory in earlier phases of its bull cycle indicate the altcoin could be in the early stages of a major price rally. Technical Patterns Suggest BNB Could Surge By Over 50% In an X post on August 9, Ali Martinez highlights upside potential in the BNB market after weekly price data from TradingView suggests the altcoin is replicating Bitcoi…

Bitcoin prices have returned above $105,000 in the past 24 hours following a sharp price decline on Thursday triggered by macroeconomic pressures. Notably, US President Donald Trump and former political ally Elon Musk had engaged in a public spat which spiked the volatility in a crypto market already undergoing a corrective phase. Amidst some level of renewed stability in the last two days, popular analytics firm Glassnode has now shared an important on-chain analysis highlighting the presently key price levels in the Bitcoin market.

Bitcoin’s price movements often reflect broader macroeconomic trends. Analysts have uncovered a consistent pattern where BTC’s price follows these shifts with a roughly 12-week delay.

Meme coins have spent most of their existence in the crypto market as retail-driven and hype-fueled, swinging from moonshot highs to brutal pullbacks in a matter of hours. But this year is beginning to look different. Institutional players are circling, looking for ways to package meme exposure in regulated, exchange-traded formats. That shift is significant. More liquidity can lead to larger price swings in either direction. However, it also strengthens the position of projects with strong narratives, engaged communities, or genuine utility to break out. And while mainstream finance still treats most meme coins as a joke, some of the biggest asset managers are now lini…

Dubai witnessed a historic growth spurt in its real estate market in May this year, with an all-time high sales volume, as well as record-breaking transaction values, reflecting a higher investor confidence in the city’s realty.

Solana (SOL) has recovered from the recent market pullback after bouncing from its local bottom. Amid its recent breakout from a bullish formation, some market watchers suggest that the cryptocurrency could recover its start-of-year glory. Solana Breakout Eyes $164 Solana is recording a 2.45% surge in the weekly timeframe after recovering from its recent drop to the $140 area. The altcoin has seen a significant recovery from its multi-month downtrend, which led the token to hit a 14-month low of $95 during the early April retraces. However, SOL lost the $160 area amid the recent market corrections, dipping 11% in one week. Over the weekend, its price bounced nearly 10%…
