The ongoing war in Russia has counterintuitively been one of the most significant bearish catalysts in the black gold– Russia floods the market of Oil to countries like India to sponsor its war, prompting threats from Trump. The war may continue despite the Trump-Putin meeting, with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy announcing that it would be "impossible" to concede land, mentioning Crimea. As a matter of fact, Ukraine landed hits on one of the key pipelines taking Russian Oil to Hungary, leaving the Hungarian PM Orbán in fury (He is one of the only pro-Russian leaders in Europe). In the Middle East, on the other hand, Hamas is getting cornered into a ceasefire deal as …

Bitcoin (BTC) slipped below $116,000 in Monday’s trading, marking a sharp reversal from last week’s record high above $124,000. The decline follows renewed inflation concerns in the U.S. and uncertainty around Federal Reserve policy, which has dampened risk appetite across global markets. At the time of writing, BTC hovers near $115,300, maintaining a fragile grip on support around $115,000. Analysts warn that a breakdown could push prices toward $112,500, but holding this level may pave the way for a recovery toward $120,000 and beyond. Short-term holder data suggests that selling pressure remains limited. The Net Unrealized Profit/Loss ratio sits at just 0.07, well b…

Ethereum is entering a decisive phase in its bull cycle, pushing into fresh highs after finally breaking above its 2021 all-time high of $4,860. The move comes as bulls regained full control of the market following a remarkable 14% surge on Friday, marking one of the strongest single-day performances of the year. The rally was ignited by remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole symposium. In his speech, Powell hinted at a potential easing of US monetary policy, stating that restrictive conditions may no longer be appropriate as risks shift. The market reaction was immediate: within minutes, both equities and cryptocurrencies spiked sharply, w…

Most Read: WTI Oil Retreats From Near Three-Week Highs as Pessimism Grows Around Russia/Ukraine Deal NVIDIA Corporation's (NASDAQ: NVDA) upcoming financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, scheduled for release on August 27, 2025, represent more than a standard earnings report; they are a critical litmus test for the entire Artificial Intelligence (AI) investment narrative that has propelled technology markets to new heights. What to Expect? The market enters this earnings season with a wide and telling gap between NVIDIA's official guidance and the Street's expectations, a dynamic that has come to define the company's reporting cycle.

Overview: The dollar has begun the new week under pressure, though many financial centers are closed today. The upside pressure on Asia Pacific currencies remains notable. The offshore yuan, the Taiwanese dollar, and Malaysian ringgit, the Japanese yen, and Australian dollar are among the strongest currencies today. The ostensible trigger is speculation of US semiconductor tariffs to be announced Wednesday and continued speculation of a "Mar-a-Lago" currency agreement modeled as it were on the 1985 Plaza Accord that drove the dollar lower. Less fanciful is the idea that the US will seek local currency revaluation in trade talks. Many local markets will re-open tomorrow. T…

The New Zealand dollar declined as much as 0.67% earlier but has recovered. In the European session, NZDS/USD is trading at 0.5969, up 0.04% on the day. RBNZ's Hawkesby sees weaker growth, lower inflation A day after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand lowered interest rates, Governor Christian Hawkesby testified before a parliamentary committee on Thursday. Hawkesby said the central bank could hold rates in July and that rate decisions would be data-dependent. The Governor said he expected slower global growth would dampen New Zealand's recovery and there was uncertainty around the impact of the US tariffs. The RBNZ has been aggressive, chopp…

Tungsten prices on the European spot market hit the highest level in 12 years this month, driven by China tightening its grip on critical mineral exports. Tungsten is a smaller market, with an estimated value of around $5 billion in 2023. But the industries that depend on it are getting exponentially bigger, and it is the material of choice for a key defense application – what the military calls penetrators – high-density, armour-piercing projectiles. Its also required in US Department of Defence (DoD) contracts. Tungsten production in the US ceased in 2015. The US had been mining tungsten, but it was no longer commercially viable due to low prices and competitio…

The Bitcoin Options traders have been pricing in low implied volatility, but on-chain data shows a setup ripe for amplified price swings. Bitcoin Options ATM IV Has Been Trending Lower In its latest weekly report, the analytics firm Glassnode has talked about how the volatility risk associated with Bitcoin looks from the perspective of on-chain analysis. The indicator shared by Glassnode is the Realized Supply Density, which tells us about how concentrated the cryptocurrency’s supply is around the current spot price. When the value of this metric is high, it means the investors have participated in a large amount of buying at or near the asset’s latest price. “In such…

The debate around Bitcoin’s top for this cycle has been a major topic as market participants eye potential peaks later this year. Although some analysts have forecasted a blow-off top in October or November, Quinten Francois, a respected crypto market commentator, strongly disagrees. Drawing from historical data and market psychology, Francois believes that the current bull market is far from over and that expectations for a Q4 2025 top are “just not going to happen.” November Is Too Soon For A Bitcoin Peak Taking to the social media platform X, Bitcoin commentator Quinten argued that any expectations for a full market peak by November completely overlook how previous cy…

Bitcoin mining difficulty has hit the brakes in 2025. For the first time in the network’s history, difficulty is rising at a slow pace and is on track for its slowest annual difficulty growth rate ever recorded. Signals Of Consolidation In The Bitcoin Mining Landscape Bitcoin mining difficulty has risen by 0.5% since June 1st, signaling an extraordinary slowdown in network expansion. According to mining infrastructure firm Blockware’s post on X, the Year-to-Date mining difficulty is up only 16%, which is a stark contrast to prior post-halving years. “2025 is on pace to see the slowest growth in mining difficulty in BTC history,” Blockware added.

CryptoQuant analyst Maartunn used today’s price weakness to publish a granular, 10-part “Bitcoin Market Analysis” on X that dissects the post-ATH landscape with on-chain detail and a clear technical line in the sand. “Bitcoin broke its all-time high, but here’s the catch: long-term holders are [starting] to sell into the strength,” he wrote, adding that what matters now is how the market digests that supply above and around the breakout zone. In his framing, the first stress test is underway. Is The Bitcoin Bull Run Over? The thread anchors around one headline-grabbing datapoint: “the LTH selling pressure includes the 80,000 BTC sold by the Satoshi-era wallet.” That desc…

A new partnership between World Mobile and Indonesian telecom giant Protelindo is taking 5G to the skies, and it looks as though this could be the Helium crypto killer in a massive DEPIN shake up. Branded as World Mobile Stratospheric, the program will use hydrogen-powered drones to deploy blockchain-integrated telecom services to remote regions. From 60,000 feet, each drone can blanket up to 15,000 square kilometers with 450 targeted beams. “We can deliver service up to 18 times cheaper per gigabyte than satellites, with just 6ms total latency,” – Charles Barnett, Chief Business Officer, World Mobile Group By combining its aerial network with an existing decentralized…

Bitcoin surged to a fresh all-time high of $124,500 just hours ago, but the celebration was short-lived as the price quickly retraced to the $121,500 level. The sudden pullback has split market opinion: some analysts interpret the drop as a sign of waning momentum, while others see it as a healthy pause before another breakout attempt. Adding to the intrigue, key data from CryptoQuant reveals that BTC volatility — measured by the 30-day Price High & Low metric — has compressed to its lowest point in two years. This metric tracks the range between Bitcoin’s rolling 30-day high and low, and its current tight squeeze suggests a rare balance between supply and demand. L…

Ethereum is stabilizing above the $4,200 level after days of sharp volatility and heavy selling pressure. The recent downturn saw ETH retreat from local highs near $4,800, leaving bulls with the urgent task of defending critical demand zones. Now, early signs suggest that momentum may be shifting back in favor of buyers, with selling pressure beginning to fade across the market. This stabilization comes as altcoins prepare for what could be a decisive period in the coming months. Market sentiment is cautiously turning optimistic, supported by improving technical signals and renewed accumulation patterns. Analysts point out that if Ethereum can hold current support level…

KoBold Metals, the US-based explorer backed by billionaires including Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, has secured seven new permits to search for lithium and other critical minerals in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The licenses were granted just weeks after the Berkeley, California–based company signed an exploration pact with the Congolese government, part of a broader push to attract American investment into the country’s mining sector. Congo is the world’s largest producer of cobalt, the second-largest source of copper, and hosts vast reserves of lithium and tantalum.

Is the Moody’s U.S. Downgrade a Red Flag or Not? Why Falling Stocks and Rising Bond Yields Are a Red Flag for Markets Under different circumstances, Moody’s downgrade of U.S. sovereign debt might have been shrugged off. But this time, it triggered a sell-off in U.S. bonds, stocks, and the dollar as the new week opened. It’s a textbook case of the adage: “It’s not the news, it’s the market’s reaction to it that matters.” The market had been pricing in optimism—higher stocks, a firm dollar, and demand for bonds. The downgrade caught that mood off guard. Was Moody’s downgrade the trigger? Or did it merely highlight deeper vulnerabilities—such as ballooning U.S. fiscal …

Another day where markets hang on to a positive sentiment following a similar picture from yesterday - risk-assets are in the green and safe-havens are lagging on the day. The US dollar as recently shines on optimist flows from markets, though as the DXY is still trading below the 100.00 level. The Greenback is leading today's forex action. On the other hand, the Yen is not showing such a rosy picture. Comments from the Minister of Finance Katsunobu Kato about reducing the issuance on long-end bonds made Japanese yields go down and the Yen got dragged with it. How do yields moving down influence the Yen? For a quick-to-understand explanation, lon…

On 28 May 2025, popular American video game and electronics retailer GameStop confirmed the purchase of 4710 Bitcoins through a post on X. The company’s first crypto investment, especially after Bitcoin’s recent ATH, is worth over $512 million.

XRP price started a fresh decline below the $2.220 zone. The price is now correcting losses and might aim for a move above the $2.20 resistance.
