Ethereum is entering a new phase of institutional adoption. From treasury strategies to bullish price targets, it is getting serious attention from corporate and financial players. As per a recent report from Standard Chartered, institutional treasuries now hold around 1% of ETH’s total circulating supply. But that’s just the beginning. The bank believes that this …
Snaky Way ($AKE) is slithering into the crypto jungle, riding the symbolism of the Chinese zodiac’s Year of the Snake with a presale that’s as slick as its name. This isn’t just another meme coin jumping on the hype train, it’s coiling up at the sweet spot where viral trends meet real utility, all while keeping that cheeky meme energy investors love. Built for both meme coin degenerates and serious crypto hunters, Snaky Way promises more than just short-term laughs. It’s packing unique features designed to set it apart from the usual pump-and-dump crowd—giving you a project that’s equal parts fun, functional, and future-focused. Multichain Architecture Expands Reach Unlike many single-chain projects, Snaky Way is designed to operate across multiple blockchains. $AKE will be accessible on networks including Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain, enhancing liquidity, lowering transaction costs, and broadening user participation. The multichain model accelerates adoption ($AKE gets bigger, faster, for longer) and provides a flexible foundation for future expansions, making the token accessible regardless of user preference for blockchain infrastructure. High-Yield Staking Incentives Attract Early Participation Snaky Way’s staking platform is a core feature of the project’s ecosystem, offering users an opportunity to earn returns by locking up their tokens. Staking APYs for the presale are above 10,000% dynamic, with over 78M $APE staked. Staking reduces the circulating supply, builds community loyalty early on, and potentially contributes to price stability post-launch. From Meme to Utility: Gaming, AI, and Strategic Roadmap While branding itself as a meme coin, Snaky Way aims to deliver functionality beyond internet culture. The platform supports staking, play-to-earn gaming, and will implement AI-powered mechanisms (buybacks, marketing) to assist in long-term value. Competitive Gameplay and Token-Driven Tournaments A play-to-earn game forms another layer of the project’s ecosystem. Grow your snake, rank on leaderboards, and earn $AKE prizes in tournaments. With games accessible on both desktop and mobile, the competition encourages viral engagement and incentivizes player retention through rewards and referral bonuses. AI Buyback Mechanism Targets Market Resilience Snaky Way’s use of AI supports token price stability. The AI system will monitor market conditions and perform buybacks at optimal moments. While price performance remains unpredictable in crypto markets, the inclusion of algorithmic market intervention sets Snaky Way apart from many meme coin projects. Presale Offers Early Access to $AKE Token: Don’t Let It Escape! The $AKE presale presents an opportunity for early supporters to purchase tokens before the project’s public launch. Funds raised will be allocated to staking infrastructure, gaming development, and marketing campaigns. To participate, users can connect a crypto wallet like MetaMask to the official Snaky Way website, select a supported blockchain, and complete the transaction. Make sure you have enough $ETH or $BNB to cover network fees. A Risk-Aware Bet on a Snake-Themed Breakout While no crypto project guarantees returns, Snaky Way’s blend of meme culture, staking rewards, multichain accessibility, and AI-driven market support suggests a serious attempt to break out of the noise. Whether $AKE becomes a top performer remains to be seen, but as the Year of the Snake continues, the groundwork is in place for Snaky Way to grow big in a hurry. Do your own research – this isn’t financial advice.

Vape company CEA Industries and venture capital firm 10X Capital, supported by YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), have announced a $500 million private placement aimed at establishing the largest publicly listed Binance Coin (BNB) treasury company. New BNB Treasury Strategy The offering comprises a common equity Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE), which will generate $500 million in gross proceeds—$400 million in cash and $100 million in cryptocurrency. According to Monday’s announcement, the funds raised will be primarily directed toward developing a crypto treasury strategy focused on the BNB Chain. Related Reading: $120K Bitcoin In Sight: 90-Day US–China Tariff Truce Fuels Market Optimism Leading the new BNB treasury strategy will be incoming CEO David Namdar, a co-founder of Galaxy Digital and a senior partner at 10X Capital, alongside incoming Chief Investment Officer Russell Read. On the matter, Namdar noted: BNB Chain is one of the most widely utilized blockchain ecosystems, yet access for institutional investors has been limited until now. By establishing a US-listed treasury vehicle, we’re opening doors for traditional investors to participate transparently. Russell Read echoed Namdar’s view, emphasizing what he sees as the fundamental strength of Binance Coin as a digital asset: Institutional-grade exposure to BNB is appealing because it is driven by real utility across various sectors, including decentralized finance (DeFi) and enterprise applications. By creating this treasury vehicle, we allow institutions to engage in the growth narrative of BNB. 10X Capital, which has a history of advising significant players in the crypto space, will act as the asset manager for the BNB treasury strategy with the backing of YZi Labs. The transaction is expected to close around July 31, 2025, at which point the company will begin deploying funds to acquire BNB tokens. CEA Industries Stock Soars 560% The company’s plans after the closing include building an initial position in BNB, with aspirations to scale its holdings significantly over the next 12 to 24 months through a “sophisticated capital markets program.” Additionally, they will reportedly explore staking, lending, and other opportunities within the Binance ecosystem to generate revenue while maintaining a conservative risk profile. Related Reading: XRP Won’t See Devastating Pullback Because ‘The Train Has Left The Station’ Ella Zhang, Head of YZi Labs, expressed confidence in the potential of a publicly listed Binance Coin treasury vehicle: We recognized the institutional potential from the outset, and with the PIPE announcement, our conviction has been validated. We are excited to see this vision materialize, enhancing BNB’s utility and institutional access in a sustainable manner. The market response to the announcement has been significantly positive for the company, with CEA Industries’ stock (VAPE) surging more than 560% on Monday morning following the revelation of the PIPE deal. As of this writing, BNB is trading at $825, which is a 3% gap between the current price and the all-time high of $863 achieved earlier on Monday.

According to market analyst Common Sense Crypto, a $1,000 bet on XRP today could turn into between $10,000 and $50,000 during this cycle. Related Reading: $120K Bitcoin In Sight: 90-Day US–China Tariff Truce Fuels Market Optimism He pointed out that the same stake in Bitcoin would likely top out at around $1,300–$1,500. That claim has caught the eye of many investors who are weighing where to put their crypto dollars. Strong ROI Comparison Common Sense Crypto ran the numbers. At XRP’s current price of $3.18, a $1,000 buy-in nets roughly 315 tokens. To hit $10k, each XRP would need to trade at $31.80. If XRP somehow climbed to $160, that small stake would swell to $50k. By contrast, a $1k purchase of Bitcoin at $120,000 today would only need BTC to rise to about $154k–$178k to yield the same $1,300–$1,500 returns. Here’s a quick fact to ponder, if you put $1,000 into $xrp today you will most likely end up with at least $10,000 – $50,000 in this cycle, if you put the same $1,000 into $btc you will most like only end up with $1300 – $1500. ROI (return on investment) is more important than… — Common Sense Crypto (@TheCSCrypto) July 12, 2025 Those are gains in the 30–50% range. This puts XRP’s upside in a very different league when viewed purely as percentages. Still, size matters. XRP’s market cap sits near $188 billion. Bitcoin’s floats around $2.37 trillion. To push XRP to $159, its valuation would need to balloon to roughly $9.5 trillion—nearly four times Bitcoin’s current size. That would require massive new inflows and adoption on a scale we’ve never seen in crypto. XRP Tops $3; CEO Sets Sights On 14% Of SWIFT Ripple’s XRP finally breached the long-awaited $3 mark after US President Donald Trump announced a new US strategic crypto reserve, including XRP and other digital assets. As one of the most traded cryptocurrencies, XRP enjoys high daily trading volumes, ensuring price stability and ease of entry for institutional investors. Ripple’s chief executive, Brad Garlinghouse, predicts that within five years, Ripple will handle about 14% of SWIFT’s worldwide cross‑border transaction flows. Related Reading: Countdown To August 15: What XRP Investors Need To Know Past Cycle Performance Other voices have made similar points. In June, Edoardo Farina of Alpha Lions Academy noted that between November 2024 and January 2025, XRP jumped from $0.50 to $3.40. That’s a 7x return in just two months. Bitcoin, in that same window, climbed from $68k to $112k, a 60% gain. Farina calculated that $50k in XRP would have grown to $340k while the same investment in Bitcoin would have become about $82,352. The XRP 50x Challenge XRP’s promise of turning $1,000 into as much as $50,000 is eye‑catching. Its past leap from $0.50 to $3.40 in just two months shows what’s possible. But growing its market cap from $188 billion to $9.5 trillion means a tidal wave of new money and clear legal rules. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
