Ethereum’s smart-contract platform has crossed a major line. According to data shared by Token Terminal on X, the total value of tokenized assets on Ethereum now tops $6 billion. That figure covers products from asset managers, fund houses and blockchain firms. It proves institutions are treating on‑chain finance as more than a tech demo.

The world’s largest asset manager holds the biggest share of tokenized AUM on Ethereum. Close behind are Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, Superstate, Apollo and Ondo Finance. Franklin Templeton focused on parts of its US Government Money Fund. WisdomTree launched funds you can buy through a mobile app. Superstate and Apollo each add smaller but steady sums. Based on reports, these six names together make up most of the $6 billion milestone.

(@tokenterminal) July 6, 2025 Adoption Speed Since Mid-2023 The climb didn’t happen in a day. Adoption started slowly around mid‑2023. It rose further in early 2024. Then by January 2025, the line on the stacked chart shot straight up. That jump comes as BlackRock and Franklin Templeton pour in fresh tokens. Faster trades and fewer middlemen are big draws. Trades that once took days can now settle in minutes or seconds. That kind of speed appeals to big investors, who want clarity and a clear audit trail. This push into tokenized finance shows a shift in how big firms manage money. Ethereum still faces questions about scaling. If gas fees jump again, trading costs could rise sharply.

A clampdown in one region might push firms toward other chains or private blockchains. Competition from Solana, Avalanche and new networks is already heating up. With $6 billion on‑chain, tokenized assets are past the trial stage. More firms will likely join once rules firm up and scaling solutions roll out. Markets could see new fund types, cross‑border trades and on‑chain yield tools. For now, Ethereum holds the lead. Yet the next hurdles—fee pressure, rule making and rival chains—will test whether it can keep growing. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
XRP slipped to around $2.22 on July 7, marking a quiet session for the token. That price sits well below what many crypto backers think it should be. Related Reading: Bitcoin Meets Heartbreak In Drake’s Latest Track—Details They point to XRP’s speed, its ability to handle thousands of transfers every second, and a growing list of real‑world partnerships as reasons it’s undervalued. XRP Eyes A Slice Of Remittance Market According to recent projections, the global remittance industry will swell from $783 billion in 2024 to $833 billion in 2025, growing at about 6.4% a year. That same pace is expected to push the total to roughly $1.06 trillion by 2029. Based on reports, if XRP captures 25% of that market and investors value its network at twice its annual volume—similar to big payments firms—the token’s market cap would hit $534 billion. With about 60 billion XRP in circulation, each coin would be worth $8.90. Source: The Business Research Ripple Expands Global Ties Ripple has been busy lining up deals in places that move lots of money overseas. Brazil, Mexico, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, and the Philippines are all on the list. In these markets, people sending cash home often face high fees and slow transfers. XRP’s consensus system lets banks and money‑transfer firms settle payments in seconds, not days. That speed could help push adoption even higher. Legal Clarity Boosts Confidence Based on court rulings, the US now treats XRP sales to retail buyers as not being securities. That change opens the door for more banks and payment companies to jump in without fear of a legal sting. It also gives some larger investors more confidence to hold XRP long term. Purely on network‑value math, XRP at $8.89 would already be a four‑fold jump from $2.22. But crypto markets often bid up tokens beyond those simple models. If growing adoption brings a 4× “demand premium,” XRP could climb all the way to $35.56 by 2029. That scenario assumes Ripple’s partnerships scale up, regulatory risks stay low, and investors see XRP as a must‑have tool for cross‑border payments.

Token emissions from escrow or new supply changes could hurt the price. And if banks take longer than expected to roll out XRP‑based services, demand could lag. On the flip side, more use cases—like tokenized assets or on‑demand liquidity—could boost real‑world volume and push the price even higher. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView

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. Related Reading: The Silent Bitcoin Accumulation: Public Companies’ Surprising H1 2025 Lead 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, price highs have been relatively flat, specifically around the March and December 2024 peaks. Ethereum’s behavior since April has been marked by low volatility and sideways movement, which often precedes large market moves. The most interesting move was when its price dropped to as low as $1,470 on April 9 before quickly rebounding and establishing a rounded bottom formation. Nonetheless, the analyst noted that Ethereum is due a major, major bullish wave. The question is not whether it will happen, but when it will. Now that the current consolidation is sitting right above trendline support, MasterAnanda argues that this formation will soon give way to a powerful bullish wave. The target is a minimum of $5,791, which is based on the 1.618 Fibonacci extension. Interestingly, the analyst noted that it is possible for the Ethereum price to reach $8,500 or higher in the longer term if it breaks above the resistance trendline, which is currently at $4,000. This prediction is backed by improving fundamentals and current on-chain data showing accumulation through Spot Ethereum ETFs. Wyckoff Accumulation Says It’s Ethereum’s Turn Crypto analyst Ted Pillows shared a separate but related analysis on the social platform X that’s based on a Wyckoff accumulation pattern playing out on ETH’s weekly chart. Pillows called the selloff to the $1,470 low in April as the “Spring” phase of Wyckoff accumulation, followed by a successful “Test” of a September 2024 support around $2,145, and the gradual move back to resistance now. According to his projection, Ethereum’s breakout will unfold in stages. The first stage is a push to $3,000, then a correction, followed by a rise to $4,000 in Q3. Only after these steps will the parabolic leg truly begin. The parabolic leg, in this case, should take Ethereum above $5,700, if the price action plays out as predicted. Related Reading: XRP’s Time Is Now, Says Pundit—Don’t Snooze On The ‘Biggest Transfer Of Wealth’ His analysis closely aligns with MasterAnanda’s call for a minimum $5,791 target. Just as the Wyckoff accumulation pattern pumped Bitcoin to its most recent all-time high, Ethereum may be on the verge of its own spotlight moment in this ongoing 2025 bull cycle. At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,516. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
Almost all of Bitcoin's actual users have gone away, one observer said, warning of a major crisis.
Bitcoin is currently holding just above the $108,000 level and bulls are maintaining momentum after a volatile start to July. However, a closer look at on-chain data shows how fragile that position might be. Interestingly, two support levels, $106,738 and $98,566, are now the most important zones for bulls to defend. These levels represent clusters of addresses holding large amounts of Bitcoin, and losing them could trigger a deeper correction. Related Reading: XRP’s Time Is Now, Says Pundit—Don’t Snooze On The ‘Biggest Transfer Of Wealth’ Bitcoin’s Support Clusters Around $106,000 And $98,000 Taking to the social media platform X, crypto analyst Ali Martinez pointed to two major support levels based on data showing Bitcoin’s purchase clusters. This data is based on Sentora’s (previously IntoTheBlock) In/Out of the Money Around Price metric among addresses that bought Bitcoin close to the current price. As shown by the metric, the most important current zones of purchase are at $106,738 and $98,566. These two zones are where massive buying activity has occurred in the past few weeks, and they could act as support in case of a Bitcoin price crash. The first zone, between $104,982 and $108,190, contains 1.68 million addresses with a total volume of 1.28 million BTC at an average price of $106,738. Below the first zone, a larger group of 1.71 million addresses holds a greater volume of 1.25 million BTC within the price range of $95,248 to $98,566, with an average price of $98,566. As long as Bitcoin continues to trade above these levels, the ongoing rally could continue to push upward. However, if these pockets of demand are broken with enough selling pressure, the leading cryptocurrency could enter into an uncertain price zone with little buying interest to provide support. Speaking of selling pressure, on-chain data shows a slowing sell pressure among large holders. According to data from on-chain analytics platform Sentora, Bitcoin recorded its fifth straight week of net outflows from centralized exchanges. The past week alone saw more than $920 million worth of BTC moved into self-custody or institutional products, mostly Spot Bitcoin ETFs. Bitcoin Needs To Break Weekly Resistance For New Highs Even with solid demand zones beneath, Bitcoin’s path to new highs is not yet confirmed. Analyst Rekt Capital weighed in with his analysis, noting that Bitcoin is currently facing a strong weekly resistance band just under $109,000. Particularly, Bitcoin is at risk of a lower high structure on the weekly candlestick timeframe chart. Rekt Capital noted that a weekly close above the red horizontal resistance line must be achieved in order for Bitcoin to reclaim a more bullish stance. That resistance, which is currently around $108,890, is acting as a ceiling for Bitcoin’s upward rally. Related Reading: Dogecoin Social Surge: Rising Buzz And Network Use Spark New Interest As such, Bitcoin would need to make a weekly close above $108,890 to position itself for new all-time highs. Unless there is a convincing break of that level, the price action of Bitcoin could be erratic and susceptible to a retracement to $106,000. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $108,160.

Bitcoin has held steady around the $108,000 price level in recent days. After bouncing back from a brief pullback near $105,500 on Wednesday, Bitcoin recently tested $109,000 again in the past 24 hours. A popular crypto analyst has shared a long-term “Bitcoin Bull Run Cheat Sheet” that claims that the cryptocurrency has now entered into the final phase that will lead to massive price gains. Related Reading: The Silent Bitcoin Accumulation: Public Companies’ Surprising H1 2025 Lead Bitcoin Cheat Sheet Declares Start Of Final Bull Phase In a recent post on X, Merlijn The Trader released what he dubbed the “Bitcoin Bull Run Cheat Sheet.” This cheat sheet is a breakdown of Bitcoin’s past market movements that shows the distinct phases of bear markets, accumulation zones, and subsequent parabolic bull runs. The cheat sheet divides each of Bitcoin’s two previous cycles from 2014 into three colored boxes: red for bear markets, orange for accumulation, and green for bull runs. Merlijn’s chart traces this repeating structure over the past decade, showing how each bull market followed a similar rhythm that began after a lengthy consolidation period and ended with a strong price explosion. The first full cycle began with Bitcoin’s peak around $1,000 in December 2013. Following that top, the price entered a long, painful bear market that spanned into 2015. This red-box phase eventually transitioned into accumulation, where Bitcoin traded sideways between $80 and $500 for a prolonged period. The green bull run box on the chart began around early 2017, and eventually ended with a peak just below $20,000 in late 2017. According to the cheat sheet, this entire cycle from peak to new peak lasted 1500 days. Bitcoin’s second cycle kicked off after its December 2017 top. A long drawdown followed, and the bear market phase dragged Bitcoin down to $3,000 by the end of 2018. The chart marks this point with another red box, followed by the orange accumulation zone that stretched well into 2020. The cheat sheet’s green box reappeared in late 2020 right as Bitcoin broke above its previous highs. The price shot up throughout 2021 and eventually reached a new all-time high around $69,000 in November of that year. This second full cycle was shorter than the first and spanned around 1400 days from the previous top. When Will The Next Bull Run Begin? The current cycle began with Bitcoin’s all-time high in November 2021. Since then, the market has gone through its familiar sequence. A sharp decline into 2022 which bottomed around $15,000 represents the bear market phase. The decline was followed by nearly a year of sideways movement and slow recovery up until early 2025. This is represented as the orange accumulation box on the cheat sheet above. According to the analyst, Bitcoin is now in the next bull phase, and possibly the largest one yet. The chart projects a continuation along the long-term growth curve, possibly toward the $250,000 to $300,000 range over the coming year. Notably, the timeline for the entire cycle this time should take about 1,300 days from late 2021 to complete.

Bitcoin held its ground as US President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” passed the Senate late Monday narrowly by 51–50 votes. Related Reading: Insane Or Insightful? VC Firm Says XRP Could Reach Nearly $9,000 In Just 5 Years Vice President J.D. Vance provided the tie‑breaking vote that sealed the deal for the $4.5 trillion package. The package contains major tax reductions, deeper border security funding, and substantial cuts to programs such as Medicaid and SNAP. No crypto‑specific language was included, but lawmakers attempted to insert a tax benefit for digital currencies during last minute wrangling. Bitcoin Dips Before Quick Rebound Based on reports from crypto exchanges, Bitcoin slid to about $106,344 just before the vote as traders held off on big bets. Once the Senate approved the bill, BTC jumped back above $107,800. That’s a swing of roughly $1,400 in a single session, or about 1.3%. Some traders said they sold into the dip and bought back in once the outcome was clear. Others just shook their heads and waited for the next news headline. Altcoins And Liquidations Take A Hit Ethereum barely moved, dipping 0.3%, while XRP fell about 0.7% on the day. Solana saw the biggest wobble, dropping as much as 6% during trading. In total, more than $219 million in liquidations hit the broader crypto market. Bitcoin alone accounted for roughly $60 million of that, as leveraged positions got squeezed when prices spiked back up. Crypto Stocks See Gains Stocks tied to digital assets also rallied on the bill’s passage. MicroStrategy (now Strategy) shares climbed around 3.2%, and Coinbase jumped 2.3% in early trading on Tuesday. Those moves outpaced the Nasdaq’s modest gains.

If a rise in prices drives the Fed to more increases, crypto markets may come under new strain. However, others view the Senate vote as another reminder that Bitcoin and its cousins can move on significant political news—sometimes in ways not necessarily expected.

Bitcoin’s price action has been relatively stable in recent days, currently trading just above $107,000 after briefly touching previous highs near $108,000. Amid this backdrop, technical analysis from a popular crypto analyst on the TradingView platform outlined a compelling structural setup forming on Bitcoin’s daily chart. The analysis shows that Bitcoin’s action is in a compression phase that could precede a breakout to $115,000 very soon. Related Reading: Stablecoin Skepticism Grows As IMF Official Challenges Their Money Role Compression Structure Forming Below $108,000 Resistance Bitcoin’s price action is currently following movements in traditional risk assets like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, both of which have recovered following the recent de-escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Against this backdrop, crypto analyst RLinda shared an outlook on TradingView that highlights a structural setup forming on the D1 chart and predicts a breakout to as high as $115,000 if some resistance levels are cleared. According to RLinda, Bitcoin is in the middle of a compression phase just below the $108,100 resistance level. This follows what the analyst describes as a false breakout above $100,000, which led to a brief distribution and now an active accumulation zone. The daily chart shows price action gradually tightening within the $106,500 to $108,100 range since June 25, the essence of which the analyst called a pause for a breather before a possible continuation of growth. The current setup has already established well-defined boundaries, with support at $106,500 and $108,100 as immediate resistance. A breakout above this immediate resistance would pave the way for the next resistance around $110,400 and bring Bitcoin within striking distance of its all-time high at $111,000. On the other hand, a short-term pullback toward $105,650 is still possible before a new move to the upside. Bitcoin Price Levels To Watch Bitcoin’s price action is really pressing on this resistance level around $108,000 and is building momentum for a breakout once the price level gives way. The key resistance levels to monitor are stacked around $108,100, $108,900, and $110,400. As long as the structure between $106,500 and $108,100 holds, and Bitcoin’s price is sticky near the top of that zone, the breakout scenario becomes increasingly probable. Although there are currently no reasons for a decline on the daily and weekly candlestick charts, the analyst noted that a temporary pullback to $105,650 or even $104,650 cannot be ruled out. However, even such a pullback would likely only serve as a retest but still keep the broader setup intact. Related Reading: The $100K Mirage: Bitcoin’s Rally Not Backed By On-Chain Strength At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $107,457, up by 0.5% in the past 24 hours.

Dogecoin has spent the majority of the past five days trading within a tight range between $0.156 and $0.165. Notably, the meme coin is now showing early signs of stabilization after its steep correction earlier this month, with bulls beginning to reclaim ground after a drop below the $0.17 price barrier. Related Reading: The $100K Mirage: Bitcoin’s Rally Not Backed By On-Chain Strength Reclaiming the $0.17 level is important, according to technical analysis of Dogecoin’s price. This technical backdrop sets the stage for a projected price move to $0.21. TD Sequential Flashes Buy Signal For Dogecoin Dogecoin’s 3-day candlestick timeframe chart shows that the meme coin is currently trading just above an ascending trendline that dates back to late 2023, which has acted as a key support level across multiple correction cycles. Despite the recent volatility, the price structure appears to be ready for a possible bounce move from here due to the formation of less volatile candlesticks and higher lows just above the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level around $0.165. Taking to the social media platform X, crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed an interesting bullish signal taking place on the same 3-day candlestick timeframe. According to Martinez, Dogecoin has just triggered a buy signal on the 3-day TD Sequential indicator. This tool, which identifies trend exhaustion and possible reversals, has been quite useful in predicting buy and sell zones this cycle. However, the bullish outlook depends on Dogecoin reclaiming the $0.17 price level, which is now working as some sort of resistance. Martinez noted that a breakout above this price level could allow Dogecoin to rebound to $0.21. Notably, this $0.21 price target coincides with the 0.618 Fibonacci extension from Dogecoin’s October 2023 low. Image From X: @ali_charts Path To $0.21 Needs Enough Volume For Dogecoin to confirm a return to $0.21, market participation must return in a meaningful way. This is because Dogecoin’s trading volume has been notably low over the past few days. According to data from CoinMarketCap, Dogecoin’s 24-hour trading volume is currently at just $400 million, which is a 36.7% decrease from the previous day. This level of activity is significantly below Dogecoin’s usual trading volume during periods of upward momentum. Related Reading: Stablecoin Skepticism Grows As IMF Official Challenges Their Money Role Such a slowdown in volume suggests that, despite the bullish technical signal from the TD Sequential indicator, the necessary follow-through from buyers is yet to be confirmed. At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.1637, up by 1.7% in the past 24 hours. Until volume picks up, Dogecoin may continue to consolidate or even drift sideways, regardless of the bullish indicators. Unless there’s strong interest and stronger inflows, the breakout setup could fizzle out or result in another rejection at $0.17. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
Bitcoin is currently trading around the $107,000 region after bouncing off a $99,000 low early in the week, but its progress is being capped just beneath a key resistance zone. Technical analysis shows that Bitcoin’s price is starting to coil into a wedge structure on the 1-hour chart, and crypto analyst Daan believes that the breakout from this formation could determine whether it has the strength to finally clear its most recent all-time high. Related Reading: Stablecoin Skepticism Grows As IMF Official Challenges Their Money Role Wedge Formation Stalls Bitcoin Below $108,000 Bitcoin has been consolidating within a descending wedge pattern over the past few days, as shown in the one-hour candlestick timeframe chart below. This consolidation came after Bitcoin rejected just above $108,000 on July 26. Notably, this pattern has formed beneath the $108,351 level, which is around the previous all-time high and is an important point of resistance in the current range. The pattern reflects a tightening of price action, with lower highs squeezing the price into a narrow range. Furthermore, on-chain trading volume has been relatively stable throughout this consolidation, with no strong directional bias yet. According to Daan’s analysis, even though this kind of setup could lead to a strong breakout, it may still take time to resolve. “It has been pretty choppy,” the analyst noted. The market’s lack of conviction is shown by Bitcoin’s repeated rejections just under the $108,000 level on multiple one-hour candlestick charts. A Clean Break Above $110k Could Change Everything Despite the relatively muted short-term moves, the wedge pattern is building pressure. A confirmed breakout above the upper resistance line, especially with a decisive close beyond $108,000 could mean the beginning of a much larger move. This close would be much more confirming on larger timeframes. Crypto analyst recommended zooming out to larger timeframes and waiting for that proper break above the $108,000 to $110,000 region. A proper breakout of Bitcoin above this range would also have a broader impact across the market and revive interest in altcoins. Without this breakout, however, Bitcoin is stuck within what the analyst describes as a “massive resistance in a larger range.” In this scenario, the leading cryptocurrency will be at risk of another downside volatility, especially if the support at the lower boundary of the wedge fails. Related Reading: The $100K Mirage: Bitcoin’s Rally Not Backed By On-Chain Strength At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $107,447. Though the hourly price structure shows strength in rebounding from intraday lows near $106,200, Bitcoin bulls must now contend with the narrowing price action. The wedge formation shows that Bitcoin is gearing up for its next major move, but whether it will be upward or downward depends on how price reacts to the wedge boundaries and the $108,000 resistance line.

As Bitcoin (BTC) enters the third quarter (Q3) of 2025, bullish sentiment is growing, fueled by historical post-halving patterns that have repeatedly marked the beginning of explosive market moves. A crypto analyst now points to recurring trends observed in past cycles, where Q3 has often acted as a launchpad for significant price rallies in BTC following each halving year. Bitcoin Post-Halving Years Point To Explosive Q3 Luca, a crypto market expert on X (formerly Twitter), has doubled down on expectations for a major Bitcoin price rally in the coming quarter. He argues that expectations of an extended consolidation in Bitcoin, based on the fractals and market behavior seen in 2023 and early 2024, fail to account for a critical factor: 2025 is a post-halving year. Related Reading: TRUMP Token In Trouble? Over $4 Million Liquidity Exit Sparks Crash Fears The analyst points to a consistent pattern observed in every post-halving year throughout Bitcoin’s history. In his chart analysis published on June 26, Luca notes that Q3 in these years have consistently demonstrated strength, with no historical precedent for weakness, reinforcing the case for a bullish breakout. The chart compares Q3 performance during the post-halving years of 2013, 2017, and 2021. In each case, Bitcoin entered the third quarter with moderate or corrective price action, only to rally significantly in the weeks that followed. The left panel of the chart shows the 2013 post-halving year, where Bitcoin went from under $100 in July to over $680 in November. In 2017, the middle panel highlighted a similar trajectory, where BTC broke out from under $2,800 in early Q3 to over $16,000 by year-end. The most recent cycle in 2021, shown in the right panel of the chart, saw a Q3 recovery rally that took Bitcoin from under $39,000 in July to a former all-time high above $69,000 in November. Notably, Luca maintains that this consistent historical behavior is not coincidental, predicting that a similar rally could unfold in the current cycle, within the next few months. While he acknowledges the possibility of a short-term pullback, he emphasizes that Bitcoin’s broader market structure remains firmly bullish, with momentum still favoring further upside. Analyst Predicts $140,000 – $160,000 Bitcoin Cycle Top Moving forward, Luca’s chart reveals technical factors that align with his bullish thesis. Based on key Fibonacci Extension levels, the analyst projects that BTC’s next cycle top falls between $140,000 and $160,000, a target he believes could be attained toward the end of Q3. Related Reading: Stablecoin Skepticism Grows As IMF Official Challenges Their Money Role While acknowledging that the exact target could shift depending on how technical confluences evolve, the expectation remains that a Bitcoin rally is imminent. With BTC now trading around $107,423 after rebounding from a previous dip below $100,000, a potential move to $140,000 or even $160,000 would mark a substantial gain of approximately 30.35% and 48.97%, respectively.

US President Donald Trump’s namesake meme token has tumbled hard, slumping nearly 90% from its all-time high set six months ago. Related Reading: Double Win: Dogwifhat Jumps 24% Alongside Bitcoin’s $107K Push Today, TRUMP is trading at $8.80, down 6% in the last seven days. Traders are on edge after the project’s team yanked $4.4 million in USDC from liquidity pools and a single whale lined up a $2.5 million sell order. Team Pulls Millions From Liquidity According to a recent post on X by Lookonchain, the Trump Coin team withdrew $4.4 million worth of USDC and moved 347,438 TRUMP tokens—valued at $3.12 million—from the main liquidity pool into a fresh wallet. The #Trump Meme Team removed 4.4M $USDC and 347,438 $TRUMP($3.12M) in liquidity 6 hours ago. They then bridged 4.4M $USDC to #Ethereum and transferred 347,438 $TRUMP($3.12M) to a new wallet.https://t.co/ORSLE6vJiAhttps://t.co/SYyNae1nio pic.twitter.com/okTk1u0Ow9 — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) June 26, 2025 That move came without any heads-up or clear reason. Now, many investors worry that the team might be preparing to dump coins, which would add selling pressure to a coin already struggling with low demand. Whale Places Huge Sell Order Based on reports, a major wallet known as Kewh32 has put 275,672 TRUMP tokens on the market, roughly $2.5 million at current prices. This whale also sold 100,000 tokens earlier in June and still holds 369,400 coins. If those tokens ever hit exchanges, the added supply could push the price even lower. Price Pattern Offers Mixed Signal On the daily chart, TRUMP has traced out a falling wedge pattern. That setup often leads to a breakout, but only when buyers step in with strength. Here, trading volumes remain weak. The relative strength index (RSI) has sat below 50 for over a month, signaling that sellers are still in control. At the same time, the Awesome Oscillator just flipped green—albeit still below zero—which hints that bearish momentum may be fading.

Without fresh buying interest or positive news, the downtrend inside the wedge looks set to continue. It won’t take much to spark a short squeeze—maybe a burst of social media hype or a big buy from another whale. But trust in the token’s team is shaky after the recent liquidity pull. Until on-chain activity shows real demand, most market players expect more choppy trading and lower prices. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

Double Bottom Pattern Offers Hope Based on reports from Tucker’s June 22 chart examination, the meme coin appears to be forming a classic double bottom on its daily price graph. That pattern often signals that a sell-off has run its course. SHIB first bounced off roughly $0.00001028 on April 7, climbing 70% to reach $0.00001765 by May 12. Now that the coin has revisited that support zone at around $0.00001030, traders will be watching closely to see if history repeats itself. $SHIB crashed 7.5% to $0.000011 as geopolitical tensions spooked markets. Down 38% from May highs, with whale holdings -80% and futures OI at a 1-month low. TA shows deep oversold levels, but a double-bottom near $0.00001030 could spark a 62% rebound if support holds.#SHIB pic.twitter.com/uEo3ebjxXD — Tom Tucker (@WhatzTheTicker) June 22, 2025 Support Zone Holds Crucial Key According to Tucker, Shiba Inu needs to stay above $0.000010 to confirm the double bottom. The token has already climbed 7.7% from Sunday’s trough to trade around $0.00001081 today. If the support holds firm, he predicts a 62% rally that would lift SHIB to about $0.00001752—practically matching last month’s peak. Whales Exit As Risk Appetite Fades The most recent decline in major holder balances suggests that there could be a shift in market sentiment among Shiba Inu biggest fan base. Whale positions have been 80% lower from its May high, and the decline in open interest hints that leveraged speculators are not taking as much risk. Those moves suggest caution is likely to persist until the buyers return en masse. Shiba Inu Team Urges Patience Meanwhile, the Shiba Inu ecosystem’s marketing lead, Lucie, has asked the community to stay calm. Based on statements from the team, the rally to $0.01 is still the long-term goal, but reaching that milestone means to not “panic” and stay resilient. Panic is not an option. If we haven’t won yet, it’s because it’s not over. — ???????????????????? (@LucieSHIB) June 22, 2025 Related Reading: Bitcoin Wobbles? Metaplanet Buys Big, Breaks $1 Billion Mark Lucie reminded supporters that market swings are part of the journey and that holding through downturns could pay off down the line. Investors seeking a clear entry point might find the present price action appealing. If SHIB manages to hold above that $0.000010 support, a rapid recovery is in the cards. But if the coin goes below that line, the next move down might take it to even lower levels. Traders should be observing volume, whale actions, and the larger crypto market sentiment before making their next move. Featured image from Imagen, chart from TradingView
Honeypot scams lure crypto investors into buying tokens they can’t sell, locking their funds through smart contract tricks.
After weeks of lower highs and higher lows, XRP’s daily candlestick price chart is now giving a signal that could dictate the next major move. Although the token is still holding above key horizontal levels near $2.13, technical data suggests momentum is starting to slip. A technical analysis of XRP’s daily RSI indicator offers a clue into what comes next, and it’s not necessarily bullish in the short term. XRP RSI Breakdown: Loss Of Strength In Momentum According to an analysis posted by crypto chartist CasiTrades on the social media platform X, XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has just broken beneath a well-respected trendline that had been tracking higher lows since early April. The breakdown of this RSI structure, which is shown on the lower half of the chart below, is a strong shift in the short-term momentum dynamics for XRP. Related Reading: Bitcoin Nears Climax, But A Twist Awaits—Analyst Reveals Key Insight It shows that despite the XRP price holding relatively flat above the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $2.13, internal market strength has clearly weakened. The RSI had been forming a tightening wedge pattern for weeks, just like the price action’s compression at the apex of a symmetrical triangle on the daily timeframe. This type of RSI trendline break typically signals a coming volatility expansion, and as the analyst warns, the release may come with a sharp sweep to major support before XRP reverses. It’s a common occurrence for major price reversals to be preceded by a push into lower supports. In the case of XRP, crypto analyst CasiTrades highlighted some price targets to watch for reversals in case there’s a breakdown in XRP price. Support Levels At Risk: XRP Searching For Rebound Level XRP’s price action is now entering an important test phase, one that could take its price lower before rebounding for the next major rally. Analysis from CasiTrades shows a few demand zones where buyers have stepped in. These demand zones are situated at $2.01, which aligns with the 1.236 Fibonacci extension, the $1.90 price level, and $1.55, which corresponds with the 0.618 retracement level from one of the recent rallies. These levels are filled with enough liquidity, and until XRP breaks and holds above $3, these supports will always be in play. If XRP hits one of these support levels cleanly and exhibits a sharp V-shaped recovery, that would signal the market found its pivot.

Either way, the RSI breakdown has now tilted short-term risk toward the downside, at least until price confirms a strong reclaim above $2.50 and $3. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.11, down by 2% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Picjumbo, chart from TradingView
Based on reports from analyst Moustache, Bitcoin may be gearing up for its next big move. The world’s largest cryptocurrency climbed above $105,000 for the second time this week. At press time, it was trading at nearly $104,000, up 0.50% over the past 24 hours. Related Reading: Bitcoin Nears Climax, But A Twist Awaits—Analyst Reveals Key Insight Historical RSI Breakouts Could Signal New Push According to the charts shared by Moustache, Bitcoin’s monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI) tends to surge into overbought territory just before major rallies. Back in July 2013, Bitcoin sat at $66, then jumped to nearly $1,120 by November as the RSI hit high levels. A similar spike happened in May 2017, when BTC rose from about $1,300 to $19,700 by December. On April 1, 2021, Bitcoin reached $64,800 while the RSI again climbed beyond its usual range. In 2024, those RSI peaks came on March 1 at $73,800 and again in November when it cleared $100,000. #Bitcoin$BTC monthly RSI is so close to entering overbought territory.

(@el_crypto_prof) June 19, 2025 Whales Stack Up Bitcoin While Retail Pulls Back Based on reports from on‑chain data provider Santiment, large holders are scooping up coins even as smaller investors step aside. Over the last 10 days, wallets with at least 10 BTC rose by 231 addresses. At the same time, retail wallets holding between 0.001 and 10 BTC fell by 37,460 addresses.

In past runs, Bitcoin often paused or pulled back for days or even weeks before the real rally got underway. Sometimes the RSI stayed elevated while prices drifted sideways. In 2017, for example, a correction followed the high RSI but the broader uptrend kept going. Today’s RSI is near those same levels—and could linger there for a while. Related Reading: Dogecoin Breaks Free—Could Soar 60%, Analyst Says What Comes Next For Bitcoin Investors will be looking beyond technical cues. Macro events, ETF moves and regulatory announcements may guide the next direction. If institutions continue to accumulate and retail continues to avoid, price pressure will develop.

Tether acted swiftly Sunday when it froze $12.3 million worth of USDT on the Tron blockchain. Based on reports from Tronscan, this step targets wallets allegedly linked to money laundering and sanctions evasion. The company has not issued a public statement yet, but on‑chain data left little room for doubt. Related Reading: Amid Bitcoin Hype, Seasoned Trader Predicts Sudden Drop To This Level T3 Financial Crime Unit Shows Muscle According to Tether, its T3 Financial Crime Unit (FCU) partners with Tron and TRM Labs to track suspect transactions in real time. Since late 2024, the FCU has frozen over $126 million in questionable assets. In the last quarter of that year alone, $100 million was blocked. This suggests a sharp uptick in enforcement efforts just as regulators worldwide tighten the screws.

Individuals on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list are the natural targets. In March 2025, for example, Tether froze $27 million worth of USDT on the Russian-linked exchange Garantex following the EU’s 16th package of sanctions. Garantex later suspended services and claimed that over 2.5 billion rubles of user funds were held up. Lazarus Group Faces $374K Blacklist Reports show that North Korea’s Lazarus Group has moved more than $3 billion in stolen crypto since 2009. In November 2023, Tether blacklisted $374,000 in USDT tied to Lazarus‑associated addresses. Other stablecoin companies joined together to lock up $3.4 million in identical wallets. These numbers highlight how large issuers can upset state-sponsored hacking groups. Diversifying With Gold Royalties Tether diversified beyond digital currency on June 12, 2025, by buying a 32% equity stake in Elemental Altus Royalties. The deal involved the purchase of over 78 million shares at CAD1.55 per share, valued around $89 million.

Shiba Inu has seen a surge in burn activity, with the burn rate climbing by 3,194% in the last 24 hours. According to data from burn tracker Shibburn, over 521.6 million SHIB tokens were permanently removed from circulation during this period. This sudden and sharp rise in burn rate has raised optimism within the SHIB community, although the token’s price action is struggling with bullish sentiment. Large Transactions Dominate SHIB Burn Activity As shown by data from Shiba Inu’s burn tracking website Shibburn.com, the latest burn wave was dominated by a few large transactions. A notable contributor was the wallet address beginning with “0xdb6,” which alone facilitated burns totaling over 500 million SHIB across multiple transactions to the BA-1 burn address. One of its largest single burns reached 310,744,788 SHIB, followed closely by another 107,333,061 SHIB, and then another 103,276,575 SHIB. Related Reading: Billionaire Snaps Up $100 Million Of Trump Coin – Details Other wallets also participated, including “0x28be” and “0x6176,” with each sending SHIB tokens into various burn addresses such as CA and BA-2. These contributions, although not on the same scale as the primary whale wallet, collectively helped elevate the day’s total burn count to over 521 million SHIB. Together, these burn events reflect a push within the Shiba Inu community to increase SHIB burns, which had otherwise been short of noteworthy burns in recent weeks. Despite Burn Efforts, SHIB Supply Still Faces Uphill Battle Although 521 million SHIB tokens is a significant figure for a single day, it barely makes a dent in the meme token’s vast circulating supply, which currently sits above 589 trillion SHIB tokens. This context relays the challenge faced by the current Shiba Inu tokenomics. Despite periods of aggressive burns like the one witnessed in the past 24 hours, the token’s massive supply continues to weigh on its long-term price appreciation goals. However, the spike in burn rate is still a positive signal, particularly from a sentiment standpoint, especially now that the Shiba Inu price is struggling with sentiment. With SHIB currently trading within a tight range between $0.00001225 and $0.0000119, more Shib burns in the rest of the new week could bode well for its price action moving forward. As of the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001192, down by 1.7% in the last 24 hours. Despite the massive uptick in burn activity, market response is somewhat muted. However, there may be more happening behind the scenes.

Bitcoin is at a crossroads again. Prices have been bouncing between $61,000 and $104,000 for about seven months. That range looks a lot like the $31,000–$64,000 sideways move before the sharp drop in early 2022. Traders and analysts are split over whether history is about to repeat itself or if fresh demand will keep Bitcoin aloft. Related Reading: Crypto Bloodbath: Over $1 Billion Liquidated As Iran-Israel Tensions Erupt Price Stuck In Familiar Range According to reports, Bitcoin’s stretch from $61k to $104k mirrors the 2020–2021 “distribution zone” when it traded between $31,000 and $64,000 for nearly a year. Back then, the slide came fast: Bitcoin peaked around $69,000 in November 2021, then sank to roughly $15,600 by November 2022. That was a nearly 78% plunge. Breakouts Keep Falling Flat Based on analysis from Michaël van de Poppe, Bitcoin tried and failed to stay above the $106k level this month. His chart showed a quick rejection at that barrier, triggering long‑side liquidations. The price slipped back to the $104k–$105k zone after the failed push higher. Traders see each unsuccessful breakout as a warning sign of distribution. November 2021 all over again? pic.twitter.com/lIA6QFhD9S — Peter Brandt (@PeterLBrandt) June 14, 2025 Risk Of Steep Slide According to veteran trader Peter Brandt, strong fundamentals often shine brightest right before a market top. He pointed out that if today’s setup leads to a similar 78% drop from the $105k band, Bitcoin could fall toward $23,600. His simple math recalls last cycle’s move from around $69k down to $15,500. Growing Demand Meets Technical Barriers Based on reports of spot ETFs and growing buys by institutions and governments, some believe the floor is firmer now. Huge investment flows into Bitcoin have never been higher. Yet technical hurdles remain. The inability to clear $105k makes some analysts cautious. Related Reading: $57 Million In Crypto And Counting: Trump’s World Liberty Connection Long Term Signals Still Bullish Trader Tardigrade noted that Bitcoin’s 50‑day and 200‑day simple moving averages recently formed a golden cross. In past cycles, that pattern led to gains of 50%, 125%, and 65%. It points to a possible rally if buyers step in around current levels. What It Means For Investors Bitcoin’s tug‑of‑war between caution and optimism is clear. On one side, pattern watchers warn of a big drop if support breaks. On the other, strong hands from big players may cushion any slide and spark a rally. Investors should keep an eye on $104k–$105k for signs of weakness or strength. A break below could open the door to a move toward $23,500. Conversely, a clean break above $106k might signal the next leg up. Regardless, volatility looks set to stay high, so risk management remains key. Featured image from Imagen, chart from TradingView
Ethereum has been consolidating around the $2,500 price level over the past few days, showing little momentum in either direction. The second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap has struggled to sustain a breakout above the $2,600 resistance zone, despite the inflows into Ethereum Spot ETFs last week. Related Reading: $57 Million In Crypto And Counting: Trump’s World Liberty Connection One event that has sparked interest, and possibly concern, among Ethereum holders is the reactivation of a dormant whale wallet holding millions worth of ETH. The sudden awakening of this long-inactive address raises questions about a potential selling pressure and its market impact. First Transaction From Dormant ETH Address Since 2015 On-chain tracker Whale Alerts was the first to report the reawakening of a pre-mined Ethereum address that had been inactive for nearly a decade. According to the large on-chain transaction tracker, the wallet, which held 2,000 ETH, initiated its last transaction 9.9 years ago. When the wallet last moved any funds in 2015, the entire stash was worth just $620. Today, that same amount is valued at over $5 million, making the owner’s profit roughly 820x based on current prices. At Ethereum’s all-time high price of $4,878 in 2021, the cryptocurrencies reached an unrealized gain of 1573x. ???? A dormant pre-mine address containing 2,000 #ETH (5,063,918 USD) has just been activated after 9.9 years (worth 620 USD in 2015)!https://t.co/G0i8Rif0XX — Whale Alert (@whale_alert) June 14, 2025 The alert by Whale Alerts, which noted the first transaction after 9.9 years, involved the transfer of 0.0001 ETH from the whale address “0xcF26” to address “0x2C12,” which is a newly created ETH address. However, Etherscan’s on-chain transaction data reveals that the whale address sent 500 ETH into the newly created address shortly afterward. Following the string of transaction data from Etherscan shows that these 500 ETH eventually made their way into address “0x28C6,” which is known to be owned and controlled by crypto exchange Binance. This means that the 500 ETH may have already been sold through the exchange or are currently being prepared for liquidation. Brace For Impact: Will The Remaining 1,500 ETH Be Sold? As of now, the original whale address still holds approximately 1,500 ETH, currently valued at $3.796 million. However, it opens up the question of whether the rest of the funds will also be sold. Although we cannot be sure of a planned full liquidation, the pattern of the 500 ETH transfer and the involvement of an exchange address indicate that the possibility cannot be dismissed. Right now, Ethereum is in a fragile price action around the $2,500 price level. If more ETH is offloaded by the whale, the added selling pressure could make it even harder for Ethereum to break out of its current consolidation phase, especially if there isn’t enough buying pressure to absorb the ETH sold off.
