BitMine’s Ethereum Holdings Top 833,000, Becoming The Largest ETH Treasury Globally
BitMine Immersion Technologies announced today that its Ethereum (ETH) holdings have surged past 833,000 tokens, making it the largest ETH treasury in the world. The announcement comes amid a broader trend of corporate ETH accumulation.
BitMine Becomes Largest Ethereum TreasuryAccording to the statement, BitMine Immersion Technologies – a leading Bitcoin (BTC) mining firm – has amassed 833,137 ETH, overtaking SharpLink Gaming to become the largest corporate holder of the digital asset.
BitMine’s holdings are currently valued at over $2.9 billion, based on an ETH price of $3,491 per token. Commenting on the development, Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine’s Board of Directors, said:
BitMine moved with lightning speed in its pursuit of the ‘alchemy of 5%’ of ETH, growing our ETH holdings to over 833,000 from zero 35 days ago. We have separated ourselves among crypto treasury peers by both the velocity of raising crypto NAV per share and by the high liquidity of our stock.
BitMine’s ETH treasury strategy is a recent initiative, launched on June 30. In just over a month, the company has already surpassed SharpLink Gaming to become the top ETH treasury holder globally.
Data from StrategicETHReserve.xyz shows BitMine’s ETH holdings have jumped an impressive 283.1% over the past 30 days, now accounting for slightly more than 0.5% of ETH’s total circulating supply.
Following BitMine, SharpLink Gaming holds 438,200 ETH, while The Ether Machine ranks third with 334,800 ETH. Other top ETH-holding entities include The Ethereum Foundation, Coinbase, Bit Digital, and BTCS.
BitMine’s massive ETH reserves not only make it the largest Ethereum treasury, but also rank it third among all corporate crypto holders overall. Only Michael Saylor’s Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) and MARA Holdings – both primarily Bitcoin holders – have larger reserves.
Following the announcement, BitMine shares rose 2.65%, trading at $32.52 at the time of writing. The stock is up an impressive 348% on a year-to-date basis.
More Corporates Overtake The ETH FoundationThe Ethereum Foundation was once, by far, the dominant ETH holder. However, it is now being overtaken by several corporate entities as institutional interest in Ethereum continues to grow at a rapid pace.
Last week, Ethereum-focused firm BTC Inc. announced plans to raise $2 billion to expand its crypto treasury, including ETH. Meanwhile, Ethereum yield and infrastructure firm – The Ether Machine – recently added 15,000 ETH to its balance sheet.
The rise in corporate accumulation is also reflected in exchange data – ETH reserves on centralized exchanges have dropped to a nine-year low. At press time, ETH trades at $3,648, up 0.9% in the past 24 hours.
Time To ‘Catch Up’: Former Chancellor Says UK Risks Missing Second ‘Crypto Wave’
The UK’s former Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, has criticized the government’s approach to the crypto industry, arguing that they must “catch up” or risk being “left behind” during the second wave of digital assets.
UK To Miss Second Crypto Wave?On Monday, former Chancellor and member of Coinbase’s advisory council, George Osborne, weighed in on Chancellor Rachel Reeves and Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey’s crypto strategy.
In an opinion piece for the Financial Times, Osborne asserted that a decade ago, the government’s message was “If crypto is happening, then we want it to happen here.” However, he considers that “far from being an early adopter, we have allowed ourselves to be left behind.”
The former Chancellor explained that since he used Britain’s first Bitcoin ATM 11 years ago, the UK has had multiple chancellors vowing to support the industry, but “next to nothing has happened.” As a result, they had lost the opportunity to lead the crypto industry while US authorities remained skeptical.
Now, “having missed the first crypto wave, we’re about to miss the second: stablecoins,” he affirmed, noting that, unlike the UK, the EU has legislated crypto, and the US just signed into law the GENIUS Act to make America “the center of the stablecoin revolution.”
We’re still deliberating. The chancellor says she’ll “drive forward” on stablecoins, whatever that means, while the Bank of England’s governor remains unconvinced that commercial banks should issue them. This hesitation risks irrelevance.
A Call To ‘Catch Up’Osborne argued that UK authorities cannot continue to wait and evaluate the development of the digital revolution, “reminiscent of Nigel Lawson’s Big Bang in the 1980s,” while other financial capitals, including Singapore, Hong Kong, and Abu Dhabi, adopt comprehensive legislative frameworks for crypto asset platforms.
Notably, the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is working to establish a more comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets starting next year. The financial watchdog has released a Discussion Paper on the features of the upcoming crypto regime as part of its crypto roadmap to expand to a more comprehensive regulatory framework.
The HM Treasury has also published a draft and an explainer document detailing the intended policy outcomes of proposed provisions to establish a complete regime for cryptocurrencies.
The proposed rules are expected to bring exchanges, dealers, and agents into regulatory limits, crack down “on bad actors while supporting legitimate innovation,” and set clear transparency, consumer protection, and operational resilience standards, like traditional financial institutions.
Last week, the FCA announced its plans to lift the current restrictions on crypto exchange-traded notes (cETNs) for retail investors, starting in October. Additionally, it has introduced a new set of reporting rules to ensure crypto investors are not deliberately evading taxes.
According to the former Chancellor, some of the proposed rules, like requiring sterling stablecoins to be backed only by central bank reserves, guarantee that the UK doesn’t lead the sector, as major financial players will continue to innovate “regardless of the Bank of England’s stance.”
Osborne considers that blaming regulators is “a lame excuse,” as the current restrictive approach “ensures the pound won’t even play a supporting role.” He urged ministers to embrace innovation and set the long-awaited framework.
“We became the world’s financial centre because we weren’t afraid of change. On crypto and stablecoins, as on too many other things, the hard truth is this: we’re being completely left behind. It’s time to catch up,” he concluded.

Bitcoin Options Selling For All: Binance Opens Writing To Retail
Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has opened Bitcoin Options writing to all, allowing retail traders to sell risk for the first time.
Binance Opens Up Bitcoin Options Writing AccessIn a website announcement, Binance has revealed expanded Bitcoin Options offerings for its users. Options refer to a type of derivatives contract that grants investors the right to buy or sell the associated asset at a set price on or before a pre-determined date.
Options contracts can be of two types. A “call” gives the holder the right to buy the asset and typically corresponds to a bullish bet. Meanwhile, a “put” grants the right to sell, often signaling a bearish sentiment.
On Binance, retail users could so far only buy Bitcoin Options contracts, but following the latest launch, they can now also “write” the contracts. That is, they can now create and sell them to other traders.
Whenever a trader writes a contract, the buyer has to pay a premium in exchange. This premium represents an upfront income for the writer and gives the purchaser the right to exercise the option under the agreed terms.
If the market moves in the favor of the contract holder, the writer may be forced to take an unfavorable trade and incur a loss. On the other hand, if the purchaser loses the bet, the option expires unused and the writer keeps the premium as profit.
Binance is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world in terms of trading volume, so Options writing being available to all users could mark a notable shift in the sector. “This expansion allows users to take advantage of more flexible and strategic trading opportunities, including expressing market views, managing risk, and enhancing yield through Options selling strategies,” said the platform.
In order to access Options writing, traders will need to upgrade their accounts to the Options Long & Short Sell trading mode. For now, only BTC is available to all users, while ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, and DOGE remain restricted to selected traders.
In some other news, there was a significant movement of dormant Bitcoin during the weekend, as CryptoQuant author Maartunn has pointed out in an X post.
With this transaction, the network saw the movement of 1,000 BTC inactive since between seven and ten years ago, worth $114 million today. In another post, the analyst has explained using a chart what relevance transfers involving dormant tokens like this one have for the market.
From the graph, it’s visible that spikes in transfers of old Bitcoin have historically reflected elevated distribution on the network.
BTC PriceBitcoin has broken out of its recent sideways range with a downward move that has brought its price to $114,300.
XRP Ledger Shake-Up? Ripple Eyes Modular Rebuild
Ripple CTO David Schwartz has confirmed that serious internal discussions are underway regarding a potential modular refactor of the XRP Ledger (XRPL), with Rust emerging as a favored programming language for future implementations. The shift, if undertaken, could mark the most substantial architectural evolution in XRPL’s history—though Schwartz emphasized that nothing would change for users or the state of on-chain data.
XRP Ledger Rewrite In Rust Under ReviewThe remarks came during an internal technical discussion, later shared by Crypto Eri via X on August 2, where Schwartz outlined multiple proposals currently being evaluated by Ripple. “You mentioned that if you had to restart from scratch, you would do it in Rust,” an interlocutor prompted. Schwartz responded, “There’s definitely talk about doing that. And there’s also been talk about modularizing the transaction engine so that the transaction engine could execute in a VM.”
At the heart of the discussion is the XRPL’s monolithic codebase, written in C++, which combines the consensus engine, transaction processing, client query interface, and overlay protocols into a tightly coupled architecture. Schwartz acknowledged the technical debt inherent in this design, noting that “we would like to have the code be more modular.” He cited the difficulty of implementing alternate transaction engines due to inconsistent specifications, particularly in the payment engine, which uses imprecise floating-point arithmetic that can produce divergent results depending on calculation order.
“You could actually specify, yeah, actually you have to do like Z minus Q plus T minus R,” he said. “That would be annoying. We would probably want to re-specify and have an amendment where at one time we switch over to a more organized, clear, coherent version of that code.”
The proposed changes would not impact XRP holders or the functionality of the ledger itself. As RippleX senior software developer Mayukha Vadari explained in response to public speculation: “If rippled was rewritten in Rust, or there was a second client in Rust, it wouldn’t do anything to the on-chain data. Nothing would happen to your XRP. Everything about using and building on the XRPL would stay the same, just a change in what language the core protocol is written in.
Rather than a full rewrite, Schwartz suggested a phased and modular strategy. The approach would begin with a formal specification of existing components like the payment engine and transaction logic, followed by compartmentalization of those components into virtual machines. “Even if we can’t do that [specify perfectly], we could isolate the pieces of code that have those annoying quirks… and maybe modularize them into a VM,” he said.
Some of the proposals under review were reportedly submitted by third-party companies, indicating external involvement in shaping the future structure of XRPL. “We’re making decisions now about what we think is worth doing and what the order of doing things would be,” Schwartz revealed.
The move also sparked community conversations around development standards and naming conventions within XRPL’s codebase. Developers like @xrp_hodl_r noted the inconsistency of naming conventions in API outputs and suggested standardization could reduce long-term maintenance costs. Vadari responded by emphasizing the importance of preserving backward compatibility and clarity for developers, explaining that canonical on-chain fields use different formats from synthetic ones for important technical reasons. “API versioning is already the mechanism we have for that, we really don’t need anything else,” she said.
While no decisions have been finalized, Schwartz made one thing clear: the conversation is no longer hypothetical. “It’s just not easy at all,” he said, “but it would be a win all around.”
At press time, XRP traded at $3.00.
America’s Bitcoin Bonanza: 40% Of Supply Under US Control – Analyst
A fresh look at on-chain studies shows the United States far ahead in Bitcoin holdings. Investors and analysts are watching closely as countries and companies build out their positions. The sheer size of America’s stash is reshaping conversations about scarcity and value in the crypto world.
Geographic Breakdown Shows US DominanceAccording to analysis from Fred Krueger, the US holds nearly 8 million BTC out of almost 20 million in circulation. That adds up to 40% of all existing coins.
Based on reports, a $120,000 valuation per BTC would put America’s holdings at around $936 billion. At the same time, US Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $6 billion in July. It was the third-strongest month ever for these products, trailing only February and November 2024.
Who owns Bitcoin?
1/ Bitcoin is mainly a US thing 2/ India is the surprise number 2 3/ Europe is really not involved. pic.twitter.com/zhiZ21i7HQ
— Fred Krueger (@dotkrueger) August 3, 2025
Supply outside America is much smaller. India comes in second with 1 million BTC, or 5% of the supply, worth about $120 billion at the same price point. Europe follows at 900,000 BTC (4.6%), valued at $108 billion.
China’s government holds roughly 194,000 BTC (1%), mostly from seizures, pegged at $23.3 billion. Together, Latin America and the rest of Asia each control about 400,000 BTC (2%), valued at $48 billion apiece. Africa and other regions combine for 300,000 BTC (1.5%).
Corporate Giants Hold Big StakesReports have disclosed that public companies in the US are key players in the Bitcoin game. Strategy leads by a mile with 628,791 BTC on its books. Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) sits next with 50,000 BTC, while XXI Capital holds 43,514 BTC.
Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company has 30,021 BTC, and Riot Platforms keeps 19,225 BTC. US President Donald Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. makes the list too, owning 18,430 BTC. That mix of companies spans from miners to financial services, showing how varied corporate interest has become.
India And Europe Keep GrowingData shows India’s crypto surge continues despite a murky regulatory landscape. Most of the country’s holders are retail investors with small balances, but the sheer headcount places the country ahead of Europe.
In Europe, a blend of retail and institutions drives adoption. Still, growth here has been steadier than in India’s near-100% compound annual rate (CAGR) from 2018 to 2023—versus about 8% for traditional payments. That difference highlights crypto’s unique pull among Indian users.
Meanwhile, Bitbo’s recent chart also sheds light on national-level reserves. It shows over 200,000 BTC linked to the US and a similar figure for China.
The UK ranks third with 61,000 BTC, Ukraine fourth at 46,000. Smaller players like Bhutan, El Salvador, and Finland hold between 5,000 and 10,000 BTC.

$14.5B Bitcoin Heist Exposed: Chinese Mining Giant LuBian Tied to Largest Crypto Theft Ever
Currently recognised as the largest crypto theft in history, Chinese Bitcoin mining pool LuBian was the victim of a staggering 127,426 BTC heist in December 2020.
At the time, the stolen Bitcoin was worth approximately $3.5 billion, but with BTC’s current price surge, the haul is now valued at $14.5 billion, according to blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence.
LuBian, once a dominant player controlling 6% of the Bitcoin network’s hash rate, mysteriously vanished in early 2021. The shutdown was long attributed to regulatory pressures, but Arkham’s findings now point to a massive, undisclosed cyber breach as the real reason.
A Flawed Private Key and a Silent GiantThe hackers reportedly exploited weak private key generation, a fundamental security flaw that allowed them to drain over 90% of LuBian’s BTC in a single attack on December 28, 2020. Two days later, an additional $6 million in BTC and USDT was siphoned from another LuBian-linked wallet operating on the Bitcoin Omni layer.
In a desperate attempt to recover the funds, LuBian issued over 1,500 Bitcoin transactions embedded with OP_RETURN messages, directly pleading with the attacker to return the stolen BTC. Despite these efforts, no response was ever received.
Today, that hacker’s wallet has gone largely untouched, with its last significant movement being a wallet consolidation in July 2024. According to Arkham, this dormant address is now the 13th largest Bitcoin wallet in existence, ahead of the infamous Mt. Gox hacker.
How the Bitcoin Heist Implicates Crypto SecurityThis massive breach not only surpasses all previous crypto hacks, including the $1.5 billion Bybit exploit of 2025, but also exposes deep vulnerabilities in older blockchain infrastructure and private key protocols.
With $3.1 billion already lost to crypto hacks in the first half of 2025, experts are urging mining pools and exchanges to strengthen security practices.
As the LuBian case resurfaces, it serves as a stark reminder: in crypto, weak security can cost billions, and stay hidden for years.

Is Bitcoin Bull Run Nearing Its End? LTH Conviction Is Strong But STH Pressure Builds
Bitcoin has entered a critical consolidation phase after reaching its $123,000 all-time high, sparking a wave of caution among investors. Since the peak, price action has cooled down, with BTC now trading below key resistance levels. This slowdown has led some analysts to speculate that $123K could represent the market top for this cycle, increasing fears of a potential bearish reversal.
However, data from CryptoQuant offers a more balanced perspective. Metrics reveal that long-term holders (LTH) remain steadfast, showing strong conviction in Bitcoin’s upward trajectory. These investors continue to hold significant unrealized profits without signs of mass distribution, which supports the argument that the macro trend remains bullish.
Conversely, short-term holders (STH) are showing signs of weakness, with profit margins shrinking during recent rallies. This divergence between LTH confidence and STH selling pressure has created short-term volatility, but the broader supply dynamics remain healthy.
Long-Term Holders Support Bullish Structure Amid Short-Term Selling PressureCryptoQuant analyst AbramChart highlights that Long-Term Holders (LTH) continue to anchor Bitcoin’s bullish narrative, with the Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) metric remaining solidly above 0.5. This indicates that LTH are still in significant profit territory and show no signs of capitulation. Their strong conviction and willingness to hold are providing a solid foundation for Bitcoin’s price, even as market sentiment shows signs of cooling after the recent rally to $123K.
In contrast, Short-Term Holders (STH) are operating under different conditions. Their NUPL levels are fluctuating near lower profit margins, suggesting that many are either realizing gains during brief rallies or are feeling pressure from holding underwater positions. This behavior is creating short-term corrective waves in Bitcoin’s price action, contributing to the recent volatility.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading close to the $104K zone, a level that appears to be supported mainly by LTH confidence. The absence of mass selling from these long-term holders reflects their belief in Bitcoin’s continued upward trajectory, despite temporary market pullbacks.
AbramChart emphasizes that unless LTH begin to distribute their holdings aggressively, the macro uptrend remains intact. Therefore, current price action is likely a phase of consolidation within a larger bullish cycle, where STH-driven volatility offers strategic accumulation opportunities for long-term participants.
Price Action Details: Testing Key ResistanceBitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $114,316, following a sharp pullback from the local highs at $122,077. The chart shows that BTC is now retesting the $115,724 resistance zone, which was previously a key support level during the two-week consolidation range. The 100-period moving average (green line) around $115,326 is adding additional pressure, creating a confluence resistance level that bulls need to overcome for further upside momentum.
Volume has picked up during the recent bounce, indicating that buyers are attempting to defend the $112K zone. However, BTC is still trading below the 50-period moving average (blue line) at $117,201, suggesting that short-term trend momentum remains bearish unless BTC can reclaim this level.
The overall structure suggests a relief rally within a corrective phase. Bulls need a decisive close above $115,724 to shift the short-term bias back to bullish and aim for a retest of the $122,077 highs. Failure to break above resistance could result in continued range-bound price action, with support at $112,000 being the immediate level to watch.

Pro-XRP Attorney Reveals Why Ethereum Is A Bigger Winner Of The GENIUS Act Over Ripple
With the GENIUS Act now officially passed, pro-XRP attorney John Deaton has released a new report analyzing which blockchain projects, including Ripple and Ethereum, stand to gain the most. While Ripple’s Stablecoin, RLUSD, and Circle’s USDC are highlighted as potential beneficiaries of this landmark legislation, the report suggests that Ethereum is poised to be the biggest winner overall.
GENIUS Act To Favor Ethereum Over RippleIn a recently released statement on the X social media platform on July 3, Deaton weighed in on the implications of the recently signed GENIUS Act. While Ripple and Circle have drawn much attention as the likely front-runners under the legislation, the pro-crypto attorney contends that Ethereum is set to benefit the most from the new regulatory framework compared to other blockchains.
The GENIUS Act, which stands for Government Encouragement of National Innovation and Upliftment of Startups, aims to provide regulatory clarity for digital assets and stablecoins operating within the US market. This new legislation is being widely viewed as a turning point for crypto projects and a historical moment for the industry.
Deaton acknowledged the broader consensus that Ripple, with its recently introduced stablecoin, RLUSD, and Circle, the issuer of USDC, would benefit significantly from the regulatory clarity established by the GENIUS Act. However, he emphasized that Ethereum is even more uniquely positioned to capitalize on the provisions of the legislation due to its long-standing infrastructure and its deep connection to stablecoins.
In his view, influential Ethereum advocates such as AK_EtherMachine, Fundstrat, and Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin have the strategic leverage and regulatory foresight to steer the blockchain network into a dominant role within the compliant US crypto ecosystem. Deaton further pointed to growing momentum behind Ethereum-compatible initiatives, including discussions by Padro Ardoino and Tether about introducing a US-based version of the UDST stablecoin. These developments suggest a broader industry pivot toward crypto compliance and innovation within US borders, alongside a renewed focus on Ethereum’s foundational role in powering stablecoins.
Notably, Deaton’s remarks come at a time when clear regulations continue to be a decisive factor in determining which blockchain networks and cryptocurrencies thrive in the evolving market. While Ripple has long championed regulatory transparency, especially through its ongoing legal battles with the US SEC, Ethereum’s flexible and developer-friendly network may offer a more scalable way to meet US-centered compliance standards.
Ethereum And XRP Prices Slide Despite Policy MomentumDespite renewed optimism and positive sentiment fueled by the GENIUS Act, the prices of Ethereum and XRP have retraced. According to data from CoinMarketCap, ETH‘s price surged over 40% in the past month. However, in this past week alone, the leading altcoin dropped nearly 9% and is now trading at $3,548.
XRP has also experienced a pullback after rallying above $3. While it recorded a 34.8% increase over the past month, the cryptocurrency crashed by 8.33% this week. Now, XRP is teetering between $2.8 and $3 as it struggles to break through former support levels.
Trump Media Unveils Truth Token and Digital Wallet Despite $20M Quarterly Loss
Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent of Truth Social, is forging ahead with its crypto ambitions despite reporting a $20 million net loss in Q2 2025. The company announced the upcoming launch of the Truth Token, a utility token set to integrate with its digital platforms and power a new in-app ecosystem.
The initiative also includes a Truth-branded digital wallet, suggesting a long-term commitment to blockchain technology even as financial pressures mount.
According to an SEC filing, the token will debut as part of the “Patriot Package” rewards program and will eventually unlock expanded functionality across Truth Social and Truth+.
The Purpose Behind the Truth TokenUnlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, the Truth Token is classified as a utility token, designed for platform-specific use rather than as a speculative asset. Trump Media has hinted at several practical applications:
- Subscription Payments: Use tokens to pay for Truth+ premium content.
- Exclusive Content Access: Unlock gated videos, live streams, or features.
- Loyalty Rewards: Earn tokens through engagement or contributions to the platform.
- Potential Governance Use: Limited community voting on platform updates or features.
Although not explicitly called a cryptocurrency, the language used in the filings strongly suggests a blockchain-based infrastructure. This aligns with Trump Media’s growing focus on digital assets, including a $2 billion Bitcoin investment and filings for crypto ETFs under its fintech arm, Truth.Fi.
A Strategic Pivot Amidst Market Challenges?Trump Media’s Q2 financial report revealed a $20 million loss, largely due to legal costs related to its 2024 SPAC merger.
The announcement of the Truth Token, however, appears to be a strategic pivot to diversify revenue streams and increase user engagement. CEO Devin Nunes framed the crypto strategy as a defense against financial censorship, making the platform a unique alternative in an era of increasing debanking fears.
With $2.3 million in positive operating cash flow and a growing presence in the digital asset space, Trump Media may be positioning itself for long-term growth, even amid volatility. The success of the Truth Token will hinge on user adoption, regulatory clarity, and the platform’s ability to deliver real value beyond political affiliation.

Japan’s Metaplanet Acquires 463 Bitcoin Worth $53M – Holdings Rise To 17,595 BTC
Bitcoin is entering a critical phase after several days of heightened volatility and market discomfort. The recent sharp price swings have amplified investor concerns, with many analysts warning that a deeper correction could be imminent. Sentiment is shifting, as disbelief in the continuation of the uptrend gains traction among traders and market participants. However, amidst the growing uncertainty, strategic accumulation by institutional players continues to make headlines.
Arkham Intelligence, a leading blockchain data platform, revealed that Metaplanet, a Japanese public company renowned for its aggressive Bitcoin treasury strategy, acquired over $50 million worth of BTC just a few hours ago. Despite the recent price decline, Metaplanet’s latest acquisition underscores its long-term conviction in Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset, following a MicroStrategy-like approach.
While retail sentiment shows signs of exhaustion, institutions like Metaplanet are seizing the opportunity to accumulate during periods of market weakness. This divergence between institutional accumulation and retail fear will be a key factor to watch in the coming weeks, as Bitcoin navigates this crucial phase that could determine whether the bull cycle continues or enters a prolonged correction.
Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Holdings to 17,595 BTCMetaplanet, often referred to as the “Japanese MicroStrategy,” continues its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy. According to Arkham Intelligence, Metaplanet recently acquired 463 BTC worth $53 million, raising its total holdings to 17,595 BTC, now valued at approximately $2.02 billion. This latest purchase reinforces Metaplanet’s strategic focus on Bitcoin as a core treasury asset, mirroring the playbook of MicroStrategy in the United States.
The company actively monitors and reports its BTC Yield, a key performance indicator (KPI) that measures the percentage change in the ratio of Total Bitcoin Holdings to Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding over a given period. This metric allows Metaplanet to assess how its Bitcoin acquisition strategy impacts shareholder value, specifically focusing on accretive growth despite share dilution.
Another essential metric is BTC Gain, which represents the hypothetical increase in Bitcoin holdings driven solely by the company’s treasury operations, excluding the effects of share issuance. Additionally, BTC ¥ Gain converts this figure into yen, providing shareholders with a clearer financial perspective in their local currency.
Metaplanet’s BTC Yield has shown staggering performance metrics: 41.7% in Q3 2024, 309.8% in Q4 2024, 95.6% in Q1 2025, and 129.4% in Q2 2025. From July 1, 2025, to August 4, 2025, the company’s BTC Yield stands at 24.6%, reflecting sustained treasury efficiency despite recent market volatility.
This relentless accumulation by institutional players could play a pivotal role in supporting market structure through volatile phases, reinforcing Bitcoin’s growing appeal as a corporate treasury reserve asset.
BTC Struggles Below $115K LevelBitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $114,419, showing signs of exhaustion after a short-lived recovery attempt from the recent dip to $112,200. The chart illustrates BTC’s rejection at the 200-day moving average (115,276), which has now become a key dynamic resistance. The $115,724 horizontal level—previously acting as range support—is now capping BTC’s upside and proving difficult to reclaim.
Price action remains compressed below the 50-day (116,442) and 100-day (117,224) moving averages, adding further resistance pressure. The recent bounce from local lows lacks strong volume, indicating weak bullish conviction and suggesting the move could be more of a relief rally than a trend reversal.
Bulls need to decisively reclaim $115,724 and push beyond the 200 MA to regain bullish momentum. Failure to do so could see BTC retest the $112,200 support level, where the previous bounce originated. A breakdown below this zone could open up further downside towards the $110,000 psychological level.

XRPL Infrastructure: Ripple CTO Shares ‘Most Useful Thing’ For The Network
Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz, has taken an interesting step regarding strengthening the XRPL infrastructure by personally deploying a powerful new server. In a detailed post shared on the social media platform X, David ‘JoelKatz’ Schwartz outlined his motivation, setup, and intentions behind this initiative, while also noting that it is an independent contribution outside his role at Ripple.
Schwartz’s Useful Hub Boosts XRPL StabilityWhile reflecting on what he has seen on the XRP Ledger, Schwartz mentioned that the best improvement for the network would be a high-performance hub that sets aside special connection slots for UNL validators, important nodes, and servers that run XRPL-based applications.
According to him, such a server would significantly improve the reliability and connectivity of critical components of the ecosystem. Although Schwartz is the company’s CTO, he noted that this is a personal project and not affiliated with Ripple as a company. The major goal is to support the network’s decentralization and reduce dependency on any single point of failure.
As noted by Schwartz, although his new server would be production-grade and strive for high uptime, XRPL nodes should never rely exclusively on a single hub, which is XRPL’s foundational principle of distributed trust. However, in his view, this type of infrastructure, independent yet dependable, could quietly but effectively increase XRPL’s performance and resilience.
Hardware And ConfigurationTo bring this vision to life, Schwartz selected an AMD 9950X CPU paired with 256GB of RAM, supported by a 2TB boot SATA SSD and a dual 2TB NVME SSD setup configured in software RAID 0 for NuDB performance. The server is also equipped with a 10GB unmetered internet link and runs on Ubuntu LTE. Interestingly, Schwartz also mentioned that the machine is already up and running in a New York City data center. It is synchronized with the XRPL and currently contributes to the network’s connectivity, although it is still undergoing stability tests.
A portion of the node’s slots would be reserved for high-priority connections such as validators and hubs, while the remaining slots would be open to the public on a best-effort basis. This hybrid access model is designed to strike a balance between offering reliable performance for mission-critical nodes and allowing wider participation in the network.
Over the coming weeks, it will be subjected to hardening and battle-testing to test its full capability of handling production-level activity for the most essential parts of the network. No disruptive testing is planned, he assured, unless extreme conditions demand it.
This initiative by David Schwartz is part of a broader ecosystem of independent validators contributing to the XRP Ledger. As XRPL continues to grow in utility and adoption among banks and institutions, projects like these help strengthen its infrastructure and guarantee a reliable performance across the network.
In another note, Schwartz recently noted that XRP’s utility in real financial use cases will ultimately boost its value in the long run. This comes as XRP is struggling to keep ahead of the $3 price level in recent days. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.01, up by 5.4% in the past 24 hours.
Bitcoin Demand Still Positive Even As Price Faces Volatility
As robust volatility persists in the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin, the leading digital asset, has witnessed a notable pullback to the $114,000 price mark. BTC’s price may have declined to key support levels, but investors continue to display resilience and optimism, evidenced by sustained positive demand toward the crypto king.
Volatility Fails To Derail Bitcoin DemandAfter thorough research of the Bitcoin market dynamics, Darkfost, a verified author and market expert, has outlined a bullish behavior among investors. In spite of recent price fluctuations shaking broader market sentiment, demand for the flagship asset remains firmly intact.
Instead of causing widespread sell-offs, the volatility seems to be enhancing Bitcoin’s allure as a decentralized, scarce asset in the cryptocurrency space. Such a development implies that confidence in BTC’s long-term value potential has remained constant. Darkfost’s analysis of BTC’s demand aims at addressing whether investors, especially short-term holders, will continue to sell at a loss or hold underwater positions.
In the post shared on X, the expert began by pointing to Bitcoin’s Apparent Demand, a metric that contrasts newly issued BTC with supply that has been dormant for more than 1 year. It is worth noting that when this metric drops below zero, it indicates a decline in demand, while when it rises above zero, it implies a positive demand.
Data shows that the metric has now risen well above zero, which suggests a growing demand among investors. Darkfost noted that demand is still clearly positive, as evidenced by the 160,000 BTC that has been accumulated over the last 30 days.
The next key metric examined by the market expert is the Bitcoin Demand from Accumulator Addresses. Specifically, this measure monitors wallet addresses that have solely purchased BTC without selling any, providing insights about demand and holding conviction.
According to the expert, the average BTC purchased by these accumulator addresses has grown by over 50,000 BTC in the past 30 days. This growth signals a strong and sustained buying behavior from these investors within the time frame.
A Sharp Drop In BTC OTC DesksDarkfost has also drawn attention to BTC OTC Desks. This metric covers a longer-term outlook, reflecting a distinct type of demand that is off-chain and has a limited short-term effect on prices, which is currently displaying a waning demand in the long term.
Presently, the expert highlighted that the number of Bitcoins held by OTC desks has steadily declined significantly. Data shows that there are 145,000 BTC available today on OTC desks, compared to roughly 550,000 BTC in September 2021.
Even though demand in the long term has dropped sharply, Darkfost claims that the overall picture remains positive. In the meantime, demand-side indicators show no signs of concern despite recent price volatility.
South Korea’s Banks Bet Big On Crypto As Legal Guardrails Take Shape
South Korea’s top banks are moving fast into crypto and stablecoins. They’re not waiting around. Shinhan, Woori, KEB Hana and KB Kookmin have all set up in-house teams to build custody services, digital wallets and even their own coins.
Banks Set Up Crypto Task ForcesAccording to reports, Woori Bank created a Digital Asset Team under its New Business Alliance Platform Department. The group is researching crypto custody and planning stablecoin issuance.
It even reactivated an older crypto project. By November last year, Woori had begun talks with a blockchain startup and other firms to form a consortium aimed at issuing won-backed stablecoins.
Market observers disclosed that KB Kookmin launched a Digital Asset Response Council in June. This council covers credit cards, insurance and securities affiliates across KB Financial Group. The goal is clear: set up rapid-response plans for any policy change and team up with outside partners.
Shinhan’s Push And Trademark MovesReports have it that Shinhan Bank has a 20-member crypto task force on the job. It’s working on custody, wallets and token services. At the same time, KB Kookmin has applied for 32 trademarks for won-based stablecoins and 49 more for coins pegged to other currencies. They’re staking their claim early.
Under the Moon Jae-in government in 2018 and 2019, ICOs were banned and rules tightened. Now, US President Donald Trump’s counterpart in Korea, President Lee Jae-myung, took office in summer 2025 and has backed regulated crypto innovation.
Lawmakers are considering bills that would let banks issue stablecoins, offer custody services and run digital exchanges. Those drafts are with national assembly committees and could pass in the coming months.
Smaller Players Join InIt’s not just the big names. K Bank, a digital-only lender linked with Upbit exchange, set up its own digital asset task force. Busan Bank, a regional lender, now has a blockchain research team to look at ledger uses in finance. Even these smaller outfits want in on the action.
Institutions see a clear path ahead once rules land. They know legacy systems will need upgrades for on-chain settlements. And they face stiff competition from crypto-native firms. But spin-up now, they figure, and they’ll be ready to hit the ground running.
South Korea’s banks are taking no chances. They’re building teams, filing trademarks and lining up partners today. That way, when the law changes, they won’t be scrambling from behind. Instead, they’ll be right there at the front of the pack.

Bitcoin Completes Inverted Head & Shoulders Pattern Above $110,000, What This Means
Bitcoin has spent the past week trading below $120,000, showing signs of fatigue after failing to hold above $118,000. However, a major bullish pattern has quietly taken shape beneath the surface volatility. According to crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader, Bitcoin has now completed a perfect inverted head and shoulders pattern, and a possible macro move is underway.
Technical Pattern Breakout Points To BullishnessBitcoin slipped into a correction following an early-week high of $119,400 on July 28, with Friday, August 1, witnessing the most decline as the price fell to levels just below $115,200. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is still trading below $115,000, but according to an interesting technical analysis by crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader, Bitcoin is still on track to launch toward $145,000.
The chart, which was initially shared on the social media platform X, illustrates a classic inverted head and shoulders pattern. This pattern is arguably one of the most reliable bullish reversal formations in technical analysis.
The setup features a deep head between March and April 2025, flanked by a left shoulder in early February and a right shoulder that took shape across June and July. The upside breakout occurred when Bitcoin decisively moved above the neckline at $110,000, and eventually pushed to its most recent all-time high of $122,838 on July 14.
However, the ensuing retest after this peak until the time of writing is what Merlijn refers to as a “bullish retest,” in which price revisits the breakout level without breaching below the neckline. This is a strong indicator that the previous neckline resistance has now become support.
As noted by Merlijn, this pattern checks every technical box, and major moves in the crypto market often begin subtly before erupting violently. In terms of a price target, the chart’s projection is a potential surge to $145,000. This projection is based on if Bitcoin can successfully bounce upward on the breakout line, as shown in the 3-day candlestick price chart above.
ETF Outflows Dampen Sentiment MomentarilyDespite the bullish formation, price action in the latter part of the week painted a more sobering picture. Bitcoin’s failure to hold $118,500 prompted a wave of selling, culminating in a strong retracement over the weekend.
This crash can be attributed to a trifecta of pressure points: fears caused by new US tariff announcements on Friday, traders locking in profits near resistance, and the performance of US Spot Bitcoin ETFs. These elements collectively caused a retrace to $112,200 on Saturday, August 2.
On August 1, these US-based Spot funds recorded one of their worst days in 2025, shedding over $812.25 million in net outflows. This was a strong reversal after consecutive weeks of inflows and likely contributed to downward price momentum as institutional demand briefly waned.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $114,260, up by 0.8% in the past 24 hours. A surge to the $145,000 price target would translate to a 27% increase from the current price levels.
Dog Meme Coin Market Recovers as Maxi Doge Breaks $300K During Presale
The canine crypto craze is barking up the right tree, as evidenced by the market cap for dog-themed tokens increasing by 5% since yesterday.
With the meme coin market bouncing back and capital returning to dog token assets, the timing for Maxi Doge ($MAXI) to launch its presale is perfect.
$COSMO is Today’s Top Dog With 135%+ RallyOne of the biggest dog-themed coin gainers over the past 24 hours is $COSMO, up by 135.2% since yesterday.
Still, Dogecoin ($DOGE) leads the pack as the flagship of the dog-coin ecosystem. With a sizable market cap exceeding $30B, it remains unbeatable in terms of scale, liquidity, and brand recognition.
Close behind is Shiba Inu ($SHIB), with a sizable $7B+ market cap. Since its 2020 debut, it has evolved from being a speculative meme coin to a serious altcoin contender.
Its growing utility includes its own decentralized exchange, Shiba Swap, collectible card game, Shiba Eternity, and Shibarium, its Ethereum-based Layer 2 network.With a $0.00001225 price tag, $SHIB is anticipated to reach $0.0000162 this year, partly owing to its ecosystem upgrades. As such, it has what it takes to generate gains exceeding 32% in the near future.
And then there’s Maxi Doge ($MAXI), the latest Shiba-Inu inspired meme coin – but on steroids (literally!).
$MAXI Quickly Fetches $3.2K on PresaleIn the crowded kennel of dog coins, $MAXI is quickly becoming a rising force. Since launching on July 30, 2025, it has already raised over $3.2K on presale.
Despite not yet being listed on the best crypto exchanges, it’s already attracting notable attention. This signals that investor interest is already strong and bound to grow. Its unapologetically intense branding is probably what’s grabbing investors’ attention. $MAXI isn’t cute like $DOGE and $SHIB. Instead, it has charged into the meme coin space with gym-inspired aesthetics of a 1,000x leverage trader chasing green candles and gains. Yes, it’s speculative, but it goes beyond just ‘hype.’ With 40% of its total token supply allocated for marketing, it’s designed for sustainability.Source: Maxi DogeAnother 25% is allocated to the Maxi Fund, which supports funding exchange listings, partnerships, gamified events, and community rewards, demonstrating its scalability.
That, combined with staking rewards at a 793% APY and a potential futures platform integration (as highlighted in stage four of its roadmap), means $MAXI is well-positioned to carve out its own niche in the bustling dog coin sector.
$MAXI Emerges as a Crypto UnderdogThe dog-themed token market is wagging back into action, with a 5% spike in market cap highlighting a bounce-back in activity.
$DOGE and $SHIB still dominate by scale and utility, but $MAXI is quickly emerging as the underdog to watch.
You can purchase $MAXI on presale for just $0.0002505. But act fast, as this value will increase in just over two days.This isn’t investment advice. Always DYOR and never invest more than you’d be sad to lose.

However, $BONK was initially created with a more serious goal – to revitalize the Solana ecosystem after the FTX collapse.
In line with that mission, the developers airdropped 50% of the total supply directly to the Solana community. No presale. No early investor advantage. Just equal opportunity for all.
At the time of writing, Bonk was available across eight chains, including major ones like Ethereum, BNB, and Base. Each token is trading at around $0.00002678, marking an impressive surge of approximately 50% over the past month.
Looking ahead, market sentiment remains bullish. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently reads 47, signaling neutral momentum with a slight upward tilt, a sign of growing strength.
Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is nearing a bullish crossover as selling pressure eases and red bars shrink, suggesting a potential breakout could be around the corner.
Wrapping UpAsking Grok for the next crypto to explode turned out to be an insightful move, as the AI chatbot delivered an interesting list of low-cap, high-upside tokens, with standouts like Snorter Token ($SNORT), Best Wallet Token ($BEST), and $BONK leading the charge.
That said, kindly remember that crypto investments are highly risky due to the broader market’s volatility. This article is not financial advice, and we urge you to always do your own research before investing.
Корпорации делают ставку на биткоин: резервы превысили $100 млрд
Публичные компании меняют способы управления своими денежными средствами. Они больше не просто хранят деньги в банках. Отчеты показали, что в настоящее время более $100 млрд находится во владении компаний, которые рассматривают Биткоин как часть своих основных резервов. Этот шаг привлек к участию громкие имена и привлек внимание инвесторов по всему миру.
Компании, управляющие цифровыми активами, набирают оборотыСогласно последнему отчету Galaxy Research, новая группа компаний, получившая название Digital Asset Treasury Companies или DATCOs, владеет почти 792 000 BTC (около $93 млрд) и 1,31 млн ETH (около $4 млрд).
Эти цифры составляют почти 4% от общего количества биткоинов и 1,1% от общего предложения Эфириума. Эти компании смешивают цифровые монеты с наличными и, возможно, золотом, делая ставку на ETH, чтобы больше зарабатывать на активах, которые они держат без дела.
Смена корпоративных правил игрыМногие DATCO (компании, владеющие цифровыми активами на балансе) не просто покупают и держат криптовалюту. Они используют размещение акций на открытом рынке, когда цена их акций превышает чистую стоимость активов. Это позволяет им превращать дополнительную стоимость акций в новые криптопокупки. Некоторые заключают сделки через частные размещения или слияния со SPAC, чтобы быстро привлечь средства. При росте рынков они показывают крупные нереализованные прибыли.
Некоторые из них сейчас держат бумажные прибыли на миллиарды долларов. А новые игроки, например из сферы игр или технологий, добавляют Layer-1 токены, чтобы повысить доходность, а не просто гнаться за ростом цены..
В то время как большинство из этих компаний находятся в США из-за широкого доступа к рынкам капитала, тенденция распространяется. Компании, зарегистрированные за рубежом, теперь копируют эту модель. Их действия повышают ликвидность криптовалют и более тесно связывают показатели акций с ценами на токены.
Но у этого изменения есть и обратная сторона. Если премии на акции упадут или вмешаются регулирующие органы, могут начаться панические распродажи. Некоторые DATCO торгуются по цене, в 10 раз превышающей стоимость их зарегистрированной криптовалюты. Этот разрыв указывает на пузырь.
Точки зрения инвесторовСогласно отчетам, около 160 публичных компаний в совокупности контролируют около 1 млн биткоинов. Более 35 из этих компаний владеют цифровыми активами на сумму более $120 млн каждая.
Инвесторам следует отслеживать реальные риски компаний, а не только то, что указано в отчетности. Резкие колебания цен на токены могут сильно ударить по стоимости акций. Мировые рынки будут следить за развитием этой модели. Некоторые компании могут добавить стабильные монеты или другие токены. Другие могут столкнуться с ужесточением правил бухгалтерского учета и требованием более четкого раскрытия информации.
Регуляторы США и зарубежные власти вскоре зададут вопросы. Когда это произойдет, давление может вынудить компании переосмыслить крупные ставки на криптовалюту.
Сборы Bitcoin Hyper превысила $6,2 млн по мере приближения роста ценBitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – первая сеть второго уровня, выстроенная на технологии биткоина и работающая с помощью виртуальной машины Solana (SVM). Проект уже привлек более $6,2 млн на публичной предпродаже и не собирается останавливаться. Из запланированных $21,644,097 собрано $6,278,761.
Проект создан, чтобы объединить безопасность Биткоина с высокой скоростью и производительностью Solana. Bitcoin Hyper позволяет запускать быстрые и дешевые смарт-контракты, децентрализованные приложения (dApps) и даже создавать мем-монеты, при этом обеспечивая удобный мост для BTC.
Одни из привлекательных особенностей: высокодоходная система стейкинга, упрощенная предпродажа и полный запуск токена, запланированный на первый квартал. Проект прошел аудит компании Consult и был разработан с упором на масштабируемость, надежность и простоту использования.
Сочетание мем-тематики и реальной практической пользы делает Bitcoin Hyper одним из самых интересных Layer 2 проектов, за которыми стоит следить в 2025 году. Покупайте монету на официальном сайте всего за $0,0115, пока не произошло повышение.
Следите за обновлениями, если хотите зарабатывать больше в альтсезон.

Bitcoin Isn’t Just A Hedge, It’s A Solution To Failing Financial System – Strike CEO
In the world of digital finance, Bitcoin has proven to be a reliable and crucial store of value in economic and financial whirlwinds. However, some prominent figures in the sector believe that the crypto king goes beyond the status as a store of value or a hedge against market turmoil.
Bitcoin Goes Beyond HedgingJack Mallers, the founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Strike, has thrown his weight on Bitcoin’s longstanding narrative as a hedge against inflation. With existing financial systems afflicted by inflation, mounting debt, and eroding confidence, Mallers declares that Bitcoin is becoming more than a hedge; it is becoming a complete solution.
The Strike CEO made the statement in a recent interview shared by Bitcoin Archive on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). His bold statement reflects how BTC is becoming a blueprint for monetary resilience during unfavorable market conditions.
Mallers’ statement about BTC being the solution to a failing financial system stems from Parker Luiz. According to the CEO, Bitcoin’s ongoing shift from a hedge to a solution is the reason why the flagship asset is facing a sell-off.
With that being said, Mallers still advocates that investors should allocate a significant portion of their portfolios to BTC. “Anyone who understands Bitcoin doesn’t take 1% of their portfolios and use it as a hedge,” Mallers stated. Rather, investors that has true knowledge about BTC allocate their entire portfolio into the flagship asset, while Mallers states that his entire portfolio is made up only of Bitcoin.
Furthermore, the CEO claims that BTC is not a hedge as the asset is not expected to perform exceptionally well in the early stages of a financial crisis. This is due to the fact that every asset tends to drop during a period of financial turmoil, drawing attention to the 2008 crisis prior to BTC’s launch.
During the 2008 financial crisis, Mallers noted that gold experienced a substantial sell-off before undergoing a massive upward movement to new all-time highs. Given that BTC is considered digital gold, the CEO believes that the same could occur with the crypto king. Thus, he has refuted the notion that BTC is hedging against a financial crisis, but it is a replacement and solution to these uneasy conditions.
A Huge Rise In BTC’s Price Imminent?In another interview on the NYSE, Jack Mallers has offered an audacious prediction about Bitcoin’s price and its entire market valuation. The CEO made the forecast as he shared his outlook for BTC in the remaining half of this year.
Mallers is confident that BTC could rise about 100 to 200 times from its current level as the flagship asset eyes a $400 trillion to $500 trillion market. With Bitcoin targeting such a market, the founder considers the asset as the next tool to drive wealth into the future.
