Bitcoin briefly pushed into the $108,800 level a few hours ago but was once again unable to reclaim higher prices, reinforcing the key resistance just below its all-time high. This rejection has left the market in a state of caution, with investors expecting increased volatility in the coming sessions. As BTC continues to hover below the $109,300 mark, traders are watching closely for signs of either a confirmed breakout or a potential pullback. Adding a new layer to the current setup, top analyst Ted Pillows shared a notable development in Bitcoin dominance. According to Pillows, the Bitcoin Dominance chart is now showing a daily bearish divergence—a classic signal tha…

Germany’s biggest banking group, Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe, is finally warming up to crypto. After years of brushing it off as too risky and too unstable, the institution is now preparing to let nearly 50 million customers buy and sell digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum from inside their regular banking app. No new apps, no third-party wallets, just straight through the platform millions already use. The rollout is expected by mid-2026 and is being built by DekaBank, Sparkassen’s asset manager, which already holds a crypto custody license under German law. That gives the whole project a layer of legal protection most crypto startups could only dream of. From Skeptic…

Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B) says new drilling along the ARK-KCD corridor at its flagship Kibali mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo confirms “significant additional orebodies” that could stretch the Tier One asset’s life well beyond its current 10-year plan.

Ethereum’s price action is gearing up for a surge of epic proportions, according to crypto technical analyst MasterAnanda on the TradingView platform. Ethereum has spent a majority of the past two months consolidating above the $2,425 support zone, in what might be an accumulation phase before a major breakout. Nonetheless, MasterAnanda’s analysis suggests that Ethereum is on the verge of entering its strongest bullish wave in years, with a breakout target that starts at $5,791. Ethereum To Break Out To At Least $5,791 MasterAnanda’s weekly candlestick chart shows a large ETH wedge pattern with consistently rising lows from June 2022 to April 2025. On the other hand,…

Capstone Copper (TSX: CS) (ASX: CSC) has secured environmental approval from authorities in Chile’s Atacama region for its $150-million Mantoverde Optimized (MV-O) project.

The permit, granted as part of a national evaluation led by Chile’s environmental review agency SEA, paves the way for increased production at the Mantoverde mine. Once MV-O is operational, annual copper equivalent output is expected to rise to 125,000–135,000 tonnes, up from the current 97,000–112,000 tonnes. The expansio…

Robert Kiyosaki, author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” stepped back into the Bitcoin market with a bold move. According to his tweet on July 11, he purchased another Bitcoin at $110,000. Based on reports, he’s betting that today’s price will look cheap if Bitcoin ever hits $1 million. His choice puts him in what analyst Raoul Pal calls the “Banana Zone,” where fear of missing out drives latecomers to buy at the top and then suffer losses. Bitcoin Betting At High Prices Kiyosaki used his “PIGs Get Fat. HOGs Get Slaughtered” rule to explain why he bought at such a high level. He plans to hold until less disciplined investors push prices even higher and then sell when they panic…

As the Ethereum price has broken out above $3,000, the shorts have piled on with expectations that this rally will end up like the others before it: in a crash. Not only have the shorts been dominating the market recently, but the exponential growth has seen the short positions rise to levels never before seen in the history of the digital asset. While this might look bearish at a glance as it means traders expect the price to decline, it could actually end up being ultra-bullish for the altcoin. Ethereum Leverage Positions Reach Record Short Levels In a post on X, market expert Zerohedge revealed an interesting development for Ethereum, and that is the fact that Ethereu…

Markets have just received the data for both ADP Private Employment (104K vs 78K estimate) and the Annualized US GDP Data (3% vs 2.4% exp), with both showing strong signs for the largest Economy yet again. Equity Markets have been moving choppy since the weekly gap at the open, and as the US Dollar is making fresh new highs, it is a good time to look at US Treasury Bonds. These are not the most commonly traded asset class by Retail Traders but they still represent a gigantic volume of financial transactions daily, particularly US Treasuries. Bonds have been struggling to find strong demand despite the June war-fears and the few bouts of flight-to-safety that markets ha…

The Federal Reserve held its key interest rate steady today at 4.25-4.50% for the fifth meeting in a row. What wasn’t expected were dissents from two Fed Board Governors, which hasn’t happened in over 30 years. Fed policymakers typically try to show a united front for its monetary policy decisions. Yet, heightened uncertainty over the impact of protectionist trade policies on our economy is beginning to divide them. Today’s meeting was the first time since 1993 that more than one Board Governor voted against the policy decision. Fed Board Governors Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller voiced support for an interest rate cut. Why is the central bank holding back on low…

The crypto market is on the back foot after Bitcoin retreats below the $113K threshold, losing over 21% in trading volume over the past 24 hours. The community sentiment is also pushing into the bear zone as the Fear and Greed Index retreats to neutral. Despite the looming trend, one Bitfinex whale decided this is the right time to invest and started gobbling up Bitcoins at a rate of 300 per day. Blockstream CEO, Adam Back, is the one who pointed it out, while also reminding the community that the same whale was acquiring $BTC at a rate of 1,000 per day back in February. This type of investment in a crypto market has ‘buy the dip’ written all over it, in preparation…

Researchers have pinpointed a previously unknown mineral on Mars, indicating the red planet’s surface may be more actively changing than previously believed. While scientists have a solid understanding of Mars’ surface appearance, uncovering its precise composition remains a challenge.
