Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies is set to hold its first hearing on August 20 to examine a bill that proposes building a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. The reserve would be worth up to $18.6 billion and could mark a serious step toward reshaping how Brazil thinks about foreign reserves and economic resilience. Hearing Focuses on Risk Management and Reserve Diversification Bill 4501/2024 proposes allowing up to 5 percent of Brazil’s Treasury reserves to be held in bitcoin, framing it as a hedge against currency volatility and a response to rising geopolitical risks. Lawmakers backing the proposal say it’s not about betting on Bitcoin, but about preparing for a financial world th…

Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott says he expects between 12 and 18 Senate Democrats to cross party lines and support a new crypto market structure bill. That’s a surprising figure, especially given the usual partisan gridlock around financial regulation. Individual Outreach to Build Bipartisan Consensus Scott has been speaking directly with Democratic Senators, including some who aren’t on the Banking Committee, to drum up early support. He’s aiming to build momentum before the bill officially lands in the Senate this September. House Momentum and Legislative Foundations This isn’t coming out of nowhere.

Ethereum is under pressure as volatility spikes, with the price recently slipping below the $4,300 mark. After weeks of strong momentum and multi-year highs, bulls are now struggling to defend support zones. The loss of this level raises concerns about a potential deeper correction, though fundamentals remain firmly bullish. Institutional adoption continues to provide strong tailwinds, with major firms increasing exposure to Ethereum through ETFs, treasury strategies, and on-chain accumulation. This steady demand reflects growing confidence in ETH’s long-term role within the digital asset ecosystem. At the same time, Open Interest has been rising sharply, highlighting a…

Bitcoin is under pressure after struggling for several days to hold above the $120,000 mark, and now the $115,000 level has become the key battleground. The latest price action shows increased volatility as momentum shifts toward the bears, raising concerns about whether BTC can sustain its consolidation range or risk breaking lower. Despite reaching new all-time highs earlier this month, Bitcoin’s inability to maintain strength above resistance zones has fueled speculation of a possible deeper correction. Traders are closely watching whether this consolidation phase is a healthy reset or the beginning of a sharper downturn. Adding to this uncertainty, CryptoQuant anal…

Bitcoin looks set for a pause. Prices climbed to a fresh high, and now the market is showing signs of short-term cooling as some investors lock in profits. Price Pullback And Recent Rally Bitcoin was trading at $115,550 when this report was written, about 6% shy of its all-time high of $124,201 reached on Wednesday. The top crypto asset was up roughly 10% in the nine days leading up to that peak. That quick run-up helped push prices higher, but it also left some traders looking for a breather. Analysts say the recent rally quickly fizzled out without fresh macro drivers to keep it going. MVRV Signals Some Caution According to Santiment, the Market Value to Realize…

Bitcoin’s next major leg higher may depend less on halving lore and more on personnel politics in Washington. In an August 18 market note on X, economist and crypto analyst Alex Krüger argued that the cycle’s duration will be set by the Federal Reserve’s leadership change—specifically, who President Trump nominates to replace Jerome Powell—rather than by any fixed four-year pattern. “I have a high degree of confidence this cycle is not over because I am expecting changes in the Fed to bring on considerably more dovish monetary policy, which is not priced in at the moment; this would start to get priced in once Trump announces his nominee to replace Powell,” Krüger wrote. …

Precious metals are having a rough day – As a matter of fact, most of the outperforming asset classes since April or even beginning 2025 are seeing strong profit-taking flows. The dynamics of this year were evolving on outflows from the US Dollar into a fast-evolving Tech-sector and everything linked to it, comprising Cryptocurrencies (which also promise to offer an edge against fiat, US Dollar influences). Another one of the themes was a de-globalization trend, with participants betting heavily on precious metals to bypass a more divided global trade. This had led to a great performance of Gold, also dragging other metals higher like Platinum and the subject of today'…

Anglo American Plc’s (LON: AAL) efforts to streamline its business have hit a major roadblock after Peabody Energy Corp. (NYSE: BTU) scrapped a $3.8 billion deal to acquire its Australian steelmaking coal assets. The deal collapsed after a fire at Anglo’s Moranbah North mine in Queensland, which Peabody argued constituted a “material adverse change” (MAC), a contractual clause that allowed it to withdraw. Anglo strongly disputes that interpretation and said Tuesday it will initiate arbitration to claim damages for wrongful termination. The blaze, triggered by high gas levels in April, halted operations at Moranbah North, one of the most valuable mines include…
