With the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, many keen investors have turned to investing in crude oil, hoping for a surge due to the Strait of Hormuz being on the brink of closure. However, 30 minutes into trading, oil prices were only up by 3%. Over 20% of the world’s oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, and if it is indeed closed at any point, oil prices would likely spike. Many investors are eyeing $100 per barrel, a level that hasn’t been seen since July 2022. Oil Prices Slow To React To The Ongoing Conflict In The Middle East While many were expecting oil prices to spike on opening at 6 pm ET, just 30 minutes into trading, oil was up by barely 3%, followin…

Cobalt futures prices in China surged to levels last seen mid-March on Monday after the Democratic Republic of Congo extended its concentrate export ban first instituted in February. In a surprise move Congo, responsible for more than 80% of global output, stretched the export restrictions for the electric vehicle battery material by another three months taking more than 100,000 tonnes off the market over the seven month period by some estimates. The most active cobalt futures on China’s Wuxi Stainless Steel Exchange surged over 9% to 254 yuan or $35.34 per kilogram, the highest since March 14. A surge in supply from the Congo, where cobalt is a byproduct of c…

With Bitcoin precariously recovering above the $100,000 mark and altcoins bleeding momentum, traders are asking the obvious: Is the crypto bull run over? According to systematic trader Adam Bakay (@abetrade), the answer is not so clear-cut. In a detailed market breakdown posted June 22, Bakay offered a technically grounded, cautiously defensive assessment—one that acknowledges geopolitical risks but stays rooted in positioning and price structure. Is The Bitcoin Bull Run Over? “Looking at the monthly and weekly timeframes, we are still technically in an uptrend,” Bakay wrote, noting that “no key swing low was broken, and the 365-day rolling VWAP has been respected during…

Overview: The US struck Iran amid subterfuge and misdirection and while damage was inflicted, it is not clear the extent to which is nuclear capability was destroyed. Now, the world waits for Tehran's retaliation. Still, gold is slightly softer and August WTI is slightly firmer. Having given up its earlier gains (to ~$78.40) it is near $74. The dollar's upside correction seen last week has extended today. The greenback is broadly higher against the G10 currencies today, led by the antipodean currencies and the yen, which are off more than 1%. The Swiss franc is faring the best (~-0.10), followed by the Canadian dollar (~-0.45%). The greenback is also firmer against nearly…

Bitcoin briefly slid to $98,974 late on Sunday after US airstrikes targeted Iranian nuclear facilities. That was its weakest point since early May. But by Monday morning in Asia, the leading cryptocurrency topped $101,000 again. Traders are weighing whether this was just a hiccup or the start of a fresh trend. Arthur Hayes Sees Temporary Weakness According to Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, the fall is only a short pause. On X, he wrote that “weakness shall pass” and predicted Bitcoin will “leave no doubt as to its safe haven status.” He said fresh money printing by central banks will be the main force driving prices back up. His view suggests that big dips can…

How Smart Trading Bots Adapt to Shifting Market Conditions EUR/USD in Transition: How Smart Trading Bots Adapt to Shifting Market Conditions Few currency pairs respond as sharply, or as inconsistently, to shifting global narratives as EUR/USD. Over the past two years, it’s moved through cycles of breakout rallies, grinding consolidations, and policy-fueled whiplash. Traders navigating uncertainty. What worked one quarter falls flat the next. Staying consistent in that environment means more than reacting quickly. It means reading structure, spotting transitions early, and executing without hesitation. That’s where modern trading systems, from AI-driven bots to rul…

Brett Reeves, Head of European Sales for BitGo – the company known for its crypto custody and security solutions, said, “This might sound very strange for a salesperson such as myself to say but don’t use one provider. Use multiple.” “Once you reach critical mass, start to diversify. We have a saying in the UK, don’t keep all your eggs in one basket. Separate them out.” He recently took to stage during the Nordic Blockchain Association on 18 June 2025 and said, “I was at Lehman Brothers when Lehman went down. I’ve been in prime brokerage for 20 years before I came into crypto. You have to have multiple people providing services to you.” Gianluca Di Meo, the UK and Nordi…

The market technician known on X as Dr Cat (@DoctorCatX) has published a post that condenses years of his XRP/BTC work into one number—2,041 satoshis—and a set of time-stamped price targets that reach as high as $30 per XRP once Bitcoin hits $270,000. In the post, the analyst begins with a sharp rebuke of critics who, in his words, “pretend to be idiots just to troll” before pivoting to a rigorously structured roadmap. He breaks price action into five nested horizons—intraday, daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly—and assigns each its own decision-making role. XRP Moon Scenario: $30 Target Needs One Final Signal The crux of the argument is that monthly price candles must…

Want to check on Bitcoin’s latest price moves? Just pop over to CoinMarketCap and… enter your wallet info? On June 20, 2025, visitors to a number of major crypto sites, including CoinTelegraph and CoinMarketCap, were prompted to connect their crypto wallets before accessing the site. The pop-up was a hack, a wallet-stealer designed to siphon information away from users. CoinMarketCap users can create accounts and connect wallets to track their portfolios, so the pop-up itself might not have seemed entirely out-of-place. Users quickly uncovered the hack, and affected sites moved rapidly to limit the damage. The incident highlights a new potential vulnerability in th…

The XRP price could be preparing for a historical rally, as a prominent crypto analyst has boldly predicted that the cryptocurrency could reach a fresh cycle top between $20 and $30. The forecast, which presents a massive upside for the altcoin, is based on the Elliott Wave Theory—a key technical analysis tool. XRP Wave Map Signals Cycle Top Ahead Crypto analyst, XForceGlobal on X (formerly Twitter) has presented a bold new forecast for XRP, projecting a cycle high between $20 and $30. The analyst shared a chart that dissects XRP’s price action over the last several months, suggesting that the cryptocurrency is currently in the final stages of a corrective wave before b…

In the 1870’s in Colorado, the discovery of huge amounts of silver ore in the mountains triggered a massive silver boom. Silver mining expanded significantly in the state over the next decade, and Leadville became known as the “Silver Capital of America.” Colorado mountain towns saw explosive population growth and prosperity driven by mining. However, the silver boom period slid into a bust. Changes to the global international monetary systems relating to precious metals triggered a collapse in the price of silver, which directly impacted the Colorado silver mining towns. In the 1870s, many countries, including Holland, France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, and Greece, s…

Bitcoin hash rate falls after United States struck nuclear facilities inside Iran. Will computing power recover or more slides expected if the Iran versus Israel war continues? On June 22, two events took place, one of which was unexpected. When the United States struck Iranian nuclear facilities, Bitcoin prices dropped as anticipated, but the accompanying collapse in the Bitcoin hash rate was unforeseen. DISCOVER: The 12+ Hottest Crypto Presales to Buy Right Now Bitcoin Hash Rate Drops Price trackers showed that BTC ▼-1.19% fell to as low as $98,500 before recovering yesterday. As with past events, whenever the world’s most valuable crypto asset declines, it drag…

Canadian miner Vizsla Silver (TSX, NYSE: VZLA) is raising about $100 million to advance the exploration, drilling and development of its flagship Panuco project in western Mexico. The stock plunged. A group of underwriters has agreed to purchase about 33.3 million common shares at $3 apiece via a bought deal, Vizsla said Monday in a statement. An over-allotment option gives the group the option to buy 15% more stock, which would boost gross proceeds to about $115 million if it was exercised in full. The offering is expected to close on or about Thursday. Canaccord Genuity is the sole bookrunner. Vancouver-based Vizsla is conducting a 10,000-metre drill program…

Ethereum has dropped 17% since Friday, breaking down from the long-standing range that held firm since early May. The sharp sell-off came after news broke of US airstrikes targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, sending shockwaves across global markets and sparking panic selling in risk assets. ETH was no exception, plunging below multiple support zones before finding a temporary floor at $2,100. This level served as a critical demand area, and Ethereum has since managed to bounce, offering bulls a glimmer of hope in an otherwise uncertain market. However, the breakdown of the previous trading range indicates that momentum has clearly shifted in favor of the bears. Accord…

This market is anything but predictable. First came the tariff escalations. Now, the threat of full-scale conflict between an Israel–U.S. coalition and Iran is dominating headlines. Investors across the board, from crypto to equities, are trying to make sense of the volatility, asking the big question: Why is crypto crashing today? Over the weekend, most major digital assets pulled back sharply. Global crypto market cap dropped 2.8% to $3.23 trillion, down from $3.37 trillion on Friday. Bitcoin (BTC) briefly dipped below $100,000, touching $98,300 before rebounding. It currently trades near $101,000, 9% off its all-time high of $112,000. Ethereum also slid 8% at one poin…

Did you know that Muammar Gaddafi, former leader of Libya, wanted to create a gold-backed dinar for all of Africa? He was the OG BRICS member. Or that Gaddafi wanted to stop trading oil in US dollars because he thought our global financial system was a giant Ponzi scheme? Well, the US couldn’t let that happen, so they declared war on Libya and overthrew Gaddafi. Here’s Libya after American “democracy.” (X) Now, only a few days after the U.S. attacked Iran, people like Nassim Taleb, author of The Black Swan, say the US dollar has lost its throne. In a recent Bloomberg interview, Taleb argued that gold is now the world’s de facto reserve currency. “The dollar is losing…

The Sunday Market Open got filled with gaps and while most of them have been tested by retracting prices, all markets are still trading at different levels compared to the Friday close. EUR/USD wasn't left out. There has been a theme of covering selling positions against the US Dollar and this surely started to take place through last week as the Dollar Index hit a 97.69 low. We have witnessed some swift changes to Mid-May and beginning-June Forex flows as Dollar selling resumed and EUR/USD went to 1.1140 to highs of 1.1610 in the same period. The US entered the Israel-Iran Conflict, and a press release from the Kremlin Spokesman came this morning saying that Saturday’s…

Zenith Minerals (ASX: ZNC) has announced a substantial increase in gold resources at its 100%-owned Dulcie Far North (DFN) project in Western Australia. The mineral resource — all in the inferred category — is now estimated at 8.2 million tonnes grading 1.15 grams gold per tonne, for 302,000 oz. of gold. The contained metal is 41% higher compared to the previous resource estimate in December 2024. The resource upgrade, Zenith said, was driven by extension and infill drilling of previously defined lodes, as well as the identification of new ones. It follows the recent completion of 37 reverse circulation holes completed between February and April. “This mineral…

“Guess what! One BTC is still one BTC, but all the other assets are deprecating against Bitcoin,” said Romain Braud, Head of Digital Assets at Arab Bank Switzerland. “So it’s a race to accumulate Bitcoin right now. And the race already started for the people awakened from the financial system.” “Bitcoin probably is becoming, for early investors, a gold standard, like the new gold reserve,” he added. Braud took to stage during the Nordic Blockchain Association on 18 June 2025 and said, “So the reality is Bitcoin is widespread among not only the crypto believers but also institutions and all the sophisticated investors. Bitcoin is probably one of the assets that you sh…

Is Trump Truth Social the biggest threat to crypto and wider global peace? Former President Trump is again inserting himself into the heart of Middle East instability. Over the weekend, he publicly entertained the idea of toppling Iran’s leadership in a Truth Social post that has ramifications far beyond the U.S. And even as the missiles fly, some of Trump’s most loyal MAGA defenders are still online, performing Olympic-level backflips to pretend their man didn’t just do exactly what they swore he wouldn’t. Meanwhile, back home, questions linger about Trump’s crypto dealings on Truth Social. As of late, Trump’s name remains tangled in crypto pump jobs that ethics watchd…

Oil prices have been trading erratically in recent weeks, following the onset of the Israel-Iran conflict which initially sent prices soaring from $64 to $76 in under a week. After consolidating near those highs, crude broke above the initial war-driven spike late last week—only to surpass that level again during an overnight gap-up to $78.43 as the US Army attacked Iranian nuclear facilities. However, the breakout was met with some selling, leading to a sharp intraday reversal. One trigger for this volatility came from Iran’s threat to disrupt shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint responsible for roughly 20% of global oil flow. While the announce…

Malian tax officials have unlocked Barrick Gold’s (NYSE: GOLD) Bamako headquarters, nearly two months after sealing the doors over an alleged multimillion-dollar tax shortfall, Reuters reported on Monday. The office will now be run by a court-appointed administrator while the Canadian miner and Mali’s junta government continue wrangling over the country’s 2023 mining code. Former health minister Soumana Makadji was named provisional administrator of the complex last week. Barrick says it will appeal both his appointment and the wider court order that put the flagship Loulo-Gounkoto gold complex under state control. Barrick’s New York-listed shares rose 2% …
