Bitcoin’s recent price action is holding firm above the $108,000 level despite a string of minor pullbacks in recent trading sessions. Notably, CoinGecko data shows that the Bitcoin price has climbed to an intraday high of $109,116, but it wasn’t able to hold above and has retreated slightly lower at the time of writing. Volatility has been relatively subdued for Bitcoin above $106,000. However, Doctor Profit, a well-followed crypto analyst, believes Bitcoin is still in a bullish structure, and he outlined two likely paths for the next major move. Bull Flag And Breakout To $130,000 With Retest The first scenario outlined by Doctor Profit involves a breakout to a price level between $113,000 and $114,000, which would take Bitcoin to a new all-time high in the process. However, this all-time high would be very brief. According to this scenario, a sharp correction is expected to follow once Bitcoin reaches this range. Related Reading: Analyst Shares Bitcoin Cheat Sheet Showing When The Bull Run Begins This correction will send the price back down into the $92,000 to $93,000 range to fill a CME gap and tap into a major liquidity pool. Rather than causing panic, the analyst views this move as part of a bullish continuation. This potential retracement zone is clearly marked on Doctor Profit’s daily candlestick chart with the message “Add more if market allows.” The pullback, if it happens, would serve to reset the market and initiate a bounce before Bitcoin resumes its upward trajectory to $120,000 again. Direct Rally To $120,000 Without Retest The second path skips the correction altogether. In this scenario, Bitcoin breaks through the flag resistance to rally past $113,000. From there, the scenario sees Bitcoin continuing upward without returning to the lower support zones. The move hinges on the ability of Bitcoin to gain momentum rapidly and lead to a strong push toward $120,000. Doctor Profit points out that this option is a more aggressive bullish continuation, and both scenarios are valid for bullish price targets in the long term.

The analyst believes the transfer was likely an over-the-counter deal between a large private entity and an institution or government and not a sign of looming sell pressure. Volatility is going to be very low in the coming days, as there are no macro market events that can cause price volatility. FOMC meeting minutes are due Wednesday, and there are going to be US unemployment claims on Thursday, but both are low-volatility events. Nonetheless, the $113,000 to $114,000 price range is the most important level to watch in both scenarios. What follows from there, a sharp correction or a straight continuation, will define the speed of the next leg to $120,000. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $108,270.

Based on reports from the trading account Bitcoinensus on X, PEPE has formed a pattern that led to a 10x rally in the past. Now, some chart watchers believe a similar move could push prices even higher—possibly up to 20X the current level. Related Reading: XRP Could Hit $35 If It Captures A Quarter Of Remittance Market By 2029 Flag And Breakout Signals Drive Hope Traders spot a “flag” shape when price moves sideways after a drop and rise. Bitcoinensus pointed out that PEPE first formed one flag, then shot up from about $0.0000015 to $0.000015—a roughly 10x gain. The chart showed a second flag forming recently, and if PEPE breaks out again, it could mirror that earlier surge. Based on reports, a fresh breakout might send PEPE toward a 20X move from today’s prices. $PEPE Macro Outlook ???????? PEPE has been repeating the same explosive pattern: ???? Flag → ???? Breakout → ???? Flag → ???? Breakout So far: Accumulation 1 → 10x Accumulation 2 → Breakout in progress The next big move up will probably lead to the cycle top. History doesn’t… pic.twitter.com/Rqc6KBfWgn — Bitcoinsensus (@Bitcoinsensus) July 7, 2025 Price Targets And Support Levels Tested In a follow‑up post, Solberg Invest on X laid out a bullish short‑term view. Their target sits at $0.000015 if PEPE holds above the key support line at $0.0000102. That level has been tested multiple times in recent weeks, demonstrating some buying interest each time prices approached it. Traders warn that slipping below $0.0000102 could derail hopes for the next big leg up. Triangle Formation Signals Tension A recent chart indicates that PEPE is trading within a triangle pattern. Traders track triangles closely because they can lead to rapid moves following a breakout. Currently, PEPE is wedged at the top of this triangle. When trading volume picks up and the token closes over the old resistance line (indicated in red), it could ignite a new wave of buyers. Community Buzz Keeps Meme Coins Alive Meme tokens survive by social fervor, and PEPE has developed a devoted fan base on sites like X. Meme posts and community-led memes have powered previous rallies, prompting new investors to jump aboard. According to reports, continued buzz might be sufficient to initiate another run at least in the near term.

Previous runs had PEPE tank just as severely, losing as much as 95% of profits in one session. Gambling on a 20X spike involves taking wild swings and sudden plunges.

Ripple’s dollar-pegged stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD), has spent the past six months quietly becoming one of the fastest-growing assets in the $160 billion stable-value sector, even though almost all of its issuance still sits on a rival network, not the XRP Ledger. That dichotomy—95 percent of the $455 million supply now lives on Ethereum—was the starting point for a lively weekend exchange on X between XRP pundit “Crypto Eri” and sceptics who questioned whether Ripple’s plans would ever benefit the XRP Ledger (XRPL) itself. XRP’s Hidden Advantage? “Ripple is a long-game player,” Eri wrote. “Its public statements to integrate smart contracts on the mainnet will eventually position RLUSD on XRPL as a more competitive stablecoin, with faster and cheaper settlements than Ethereum.” The remark landed just days after Ripple switched on its EVM-compatible sidechain, bringing full Ethereum-style smart-contract functionality to XRPL on 30 June 2025. More than 1,400 contracts were deployed in the first week, according to developer telemetry, and the bridge is already live to 80 other chains through Axelar. Related Reading: XRP Set To Shock The Crypto Market With 30% Share, Analyst Predicts On-chain data underscore the stakes. RLUSD’s circulating supply rose by 47 percent in June alone to $455 million, the fastest pace among major stablecoins, with roughly $390 million now native to Ethereum after a four-fold expansion since January. Only about $65 million remains on XRPL. That imbalance prompted one user to tell Eri that RLUSD’s utility “impacts ETH more than XRP.” She conceded the point—“correct, for now”—but argued demand would migrate once XRPL’s programmability and liquidity deepen. Ripple’s strategy hinges on more than code. On 2 June the company applied to the US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for a national trust-bank charter. A parallel filing by its subsidiary, Standard Custody & Trust, seeks a Federal Reserve master account so that RLUSD reserves can eventually sit at the central bank rather than a correspondent institution. The timing aligns with the pending GENIUS Act, bipartisan legislation that for the first time would impose a single federal regime on payment-stablecoin issuers. While the bill’s $10 billion-asset threshold means RLUSD could remain under New York oversight for now, the application positions Ripple to graduate into federal supervision voluntarily—a move CEO Brad Garlinghouse has called a “new (and unique!) benchmark for trust in the stablecoin market.” Eri underscored the charter angle in her post: “The national banking license application, aligned with the GENIUS Act, secures a Federal Reserve master account … enhancing trust, expanding crypto financial and payment services, and removing the patchwork of state licenses, enabling continued scalability at lower cost.” Related Reading: XRP Price Risks Breakdown To Next Support Level, Why $2.28 Is Important If the charter is granted and RLUSD begins to migrate on-demand to XRPL, two flywheels favor the native token, analysts say. First, RLUSD remittances on XRPL would pay transaction fees in XRP, turning every dollar of stablecoin volume into incremental demand for the asset Ripple still holds in large quantities. Second, the EVM sidechain lets decentralized-finance builders tap RLUSD liquidity without leaving XRP’s low-cost consensus layer, potentially reversing the flow of users and liquidity that has so far moved toward Ethereum. “These calculated steps in the $$$$$-dollar stablecoin market give the digital asset XRP enormous potential, but require more time to unfold,” Eri argues. For now, RLUSD’s growth is still driven by Ethereum’s DeFi economy, and sceptics like user “sammie” insist “it’s always going to be like this.” Eri’s final reply was succinct: “Let’s see. I know we’ll be touching base often!” That brevity captures both the promise and the uncertainty ahead. Technical rails are in place; regulatory applications are filed. Whether capital, compliance, and market demand will converge quickly enough to shift billions of RLUSD onto XRPL—and in turn lift XRP’s utility—remains the multi-billion-dollar question. At press time, XRP traded at $2.27. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
