Bitcoin is now trading 42% above its April lows, highlighting a powerful shift in momentum as bulls regain control of the market. With price action steadily climbing and key resistance levels getting tested, many analysts believe Bitcoin could soon break into uncharted territory. Despite continued global uncertainty — from interest rate speculation to geopolitical tensions — the overall fundamentals point to a resilient and strengthening market.

Institutional flows remain steady, demand outpaces sell pressure, and long-term holders show no signs of capitulating. This backdrop supports the growing view that Bitcoin could be on the verge of an expansive move, one that defines the next leg of the current bull cycle.

Top analyst Darkfost added to the bullish narrative by sharing a groundbreaking insight: for the first time in Bitcoin mining history, the average cost of production has surpassed the $100,000 mark. This not only underscores the increasing difficulty of mining but also sets a new benchmark for price support. When production costs rise, the incentive for miners to sell below that level weakens, potentially creating a strong floor. As both technical and fundamental signals align, the case for a breakout is gaining momentum, and the market is watching closely.

Bitcoin Holds Key Structure As Mining Costs And Price Converge

Bitcoin is trading above key demand levels, signaling strong interest from bulls as the asset consolidates just under its all-time high. Despite climbing over 40% from its April lows and sitting less than 5% away from its previous peak, BTC has yet to make a decisive move. This phase has left analysts divided — some anticipate a breakout into price discovery, while others warn of a retrace below the $100K psychological level.

Market structure remains intact, but volatility and indecision are keeping price action capped within a defined range. According to Darkfost, a fundamental shift is unfolding behind the scenes: for the first time in Bitcoin mining history, the average cost of production has surpassed $100,000. This historic milestone reflects increased difficulty and energy costs, tightening miners’ margins even as BTC trades above the six-figure mark.

Instead of triggering mass selling, this pressure is leading to miner capitulation through a different route — hash rate is declining, suggesting that unprofitable machines are being shut down rather than miners dumping Bitcoin. This supports price stability in the short term and may prevent the kind of miner-led selling pressure that has historically signaled local tops. The coming weeks could determine whether the market breaks higher or enters a deeper consolidation.

BTC Coils Beneath Resistance As Bulls Eye Breakout

Bitcoin is consolidating just below the $109,300 resistance level, continuing to hold above $103,600 support in a tight, sideways range. The 3-day chart shows a clear compression between these key levels, with BTC currently trading around $107,000. This range-bound structure signals indecision — bulls have defended the $103K zone multiple times, while repeated rejection around $109K has kept a breakout at bay.

Notably, price remains well above the 50, 100, and 200 simple moving averages, reinforcing the bullish structure despite the lack of immediate momentum. These moving averages — now aligned between $72,000 and $95,000 — show rising support, suggesting that the broader trend is still healthy and upward.

Volume, however, remains muted during this phase, indicating that a breakout — up or down — could be imminent once trading activity spikes. A close above $109,300 would likely trigger a fresh leg toward all-time highs around $112K and open the door to price discovery. On the other hand, a breakdown below $103,600 could lead to a test of the next major support near $100K.

After triggering fears and uncertainty with its pullback below the $100,000 mark, Bitcoin has found its footing again, rising back above $107,000 in a remarkable rebound. Despite this notable upward performance, retail investors do not seem convinced about the newfound rally in BTC.

Bearish Bets Increase Among Retail BTC Traders

Bitcoin’s price has rebounded strongly and is slowly approaching the next significant resistance at $108,000. However, this renewed upward action from the flagship asset is being met with skepticism from retail investors.

Alphractal, an advanced investment and on-chain data platform, reported that retail traders are increasingly opening short positions as BTC stages a strong rally. A surge in short positions among retail traders implies that these investors are increasingly betting against the flagship asset’s recent rally.

This surprising trend has raised uncertainty about the ongoing rally, with retail investors aiming to capitalize on a possible pullback. In the past, retail bearishness during periods of price strength has occasionally preceded further upward movements, suggesting that there may still be an opportunity for Bitcoin’s bull run to continue.

While retail traders are increasingly opening short positions, Alphractal highlighted that the aggregated Funding Rate shifted into negative territory once more. A negative funding rate suggests a shift in trader sentiment as short positions begin to mount.

The shift into negative territory is an indication of growing pressure in the derivatives market as retail investors anticipate a pullback. Such a development, which reflects pessimism, has typically preceded short squeezes, making it a critical moment in Bitcoin’s ongoing upward action. 

According to the on-chain platform, this indicates that the recent surge in Bitcoin is taking most market players by surprise, which is a clear indication that many are still skeptical of the current trend.

Drawing attention to a previous post about sentiment analysis and liquidation levels, where bears were at risk of being liquidated at any time, the platform noted that this anticipated liquidation is currently taking place. As a result, Alphractal is confident that BTC still has room for more upside movement.

BTC Whales Pushing For More Upside

Retail investors might be shorting BTC, but whale investors are aggressively going long on the asset, as reported by Alphractal. After examining the 7-day Open Interest Delta, the platform revealed that the metric has turned positive again.

A positive Open Interest Delta signals that large investors are increasing their bullish bets and are looking to capitalize on the ongoing uptrend. The Bitcoin Whale Position Sentiment also confirms this key narrative.

Historically, this crucial metric has displayed a 93% connection with changes in BTC’s price. When the metric rises, prices tend to follow. Furthermore, when it declines, it indicates that whales are opening short positions even as the price surges.

Presently, the key metric has risen while prices have also increased sharply, which means large investors are opening long positions. Alphractal claims that this action shows that large investors are shaping the market’s next big move.”

According to recent market data, Bitcoin has overtaken Google to become the sixth-largest asset in the world by market capitalization. Its value now sits at $2.12 trillion, edging out Google’s $2.07 trillion. That shift has drawn attention across finance desks and crypto chats alike.

Bitcoin Surges Past Google

Based on the latest data, Bitcoin’s climb above Google reflects more than a price bump. It shows how a token born in 2009 can measure up to a tech giant that started in a Silicon Valley garage.

Google remains a force in search, ads and AI, but Bitcoin’s network value now ranks just below gold, Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple and Amazon.

The comparison isn’t perfect—one measures coins in circulation, the other shares outstanding—but the headline is hard to ignore.

ETF Flows Drive Growth

According to figures from June 9, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust has attracted over $70 billion in assets, making it the largest spot ETF for Bitcoin. Fidelity’s FBTC follows with $20 billion and Grayscale’s GBTC holds just under $20 billion.

Those numbers climbed fast after the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved spot ETFs. Big investors have piled in, nudging Bitcoin’s price upward while ETF balances reflected the gains almost in real time.

US President Donald Trump Backs Bitcoin

Based on campaign statements and subsequent executive actions, US President Donald Trump has signaled support for Bitcoin. He floated the idea of a Bitcoin reserve during his run for office and later signed an executive order aimed at creating a digital-asset stockpile.

Critics point out that setting up a government wallet is far more complex than signing a memo. Still, the president’s backing has fueled optimism among traders and some policy experts.

Analysts Eye Sky-High Targets

Zach Shapiro of the Bitcoin Policy Institute said a US government purchase of 1 million coins would trigger a “global seismic shock” in price. He predicted such a move could lift Bitcoin to around $1 million per token.

Fellow BPI director Matthew Hines added that other countries are watching the US playbook before shaping their own crypto rules.

Meanwhile, some analysts believe Bitcoin could top $150,000, or even $250,000, in the next few years if current trends continue.

Regulators Put Google Under The Microscope

Based on filings from the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority, Alphabet faces an antitrust probe into its search and ad businesses under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.

The CMA is weighing rules on choice screens, ranking fairness and data portability. In the EU, regulators are scrutinizing AI-generated overviews that may cut into publisher revenue, with one study linking such summaries to a drop in organic views.

The Dogecoin price is consolidating within a key horizontal support level of a Descending Triangle pattern, known for sparking explosive moves. Rather than fading, price action appears to be compressing, setting the stage for a potential breakout above the $1 target.   

$1 Target Back In Play As Dogecoin Holds Support

Trader Tardigrade, a prominent crypto analyst, has issued yet another bullish Dogecoin price prediction, this time speculating that the number one meme coin could be gearing up to surge above the long-anticipated $1 price target. The analyst’s chart, shared in a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), highlights the completion of a Descending Triangle pattern.

On the current non-logarithmic 1D chart, Dogecoin has completed three clear touches of the horizontal support, located around the $0.1369 level. This support zone forms the base of the triangle pattern, while a descending resistance line connects lower highs back to the $0.4835 peak in December 2024. 

Based on Trader Tardigrade’s analysis, this structural setup mirrors an early breakout pattern from 2024, where Dogecoin surged from a similar support base around $0.0938 to nearly $0.48 in just a few weeks. At the time, this rally aligned perfectly with the 2.786 Fibonacci Extension level at $0.468.

Notably, the analyst projects that if the Dogecoin price can replicate the previous cycle’s breakout behaviour and patterns, it could rally again toward the next 2.786 Fibonacci target. This time, this extension aligns with the $1.09 level, representing more than four times the meme coin’s current market value. 

Supporting this bullish outlook is the repeating price structure labeled “1-2-3” on the chart—a classic sign of multiple tests of support that often precede a breakout. With the third touch now confirmed, and Dogecoin still trading within the Descending Triangle’s range, the stage appears set for a potential explosive move to a new ATH. Trader Tardigrade has illustrated this projected breakout scenario on his chart using a sharply curved dotted arrow, indicating a powerful move toward the $1 region by late 2025. 

Historical Fractal Points To Higher $4 Target

In a more recent macro-level technical analysis of Dogecoin, Trader Tardigrade examines Dogecoin’s monthly price behaviour, highlighting striking similarities between its 2015-2018 cycle and the current multi-year pattern forming since 2022. 

During the previous cycle, DOGE rallied from approximately $0.0003 to $0.0026, before peaking at $0.009. This bullish structure formed right after a prolonged accumulation period, followed by a sharp vertical rally along a rising support trendline. 

Now, Dogecoin’s current chart setup appears to be mirroring this historical fractal, showing similar rounded bottoms and base formations between 2022 and 2025. As a result, Trader Tardigrade predicts that the DOGE price could first rally to $0.42 before hitting an intermediate target of $1.46. Once the price crosses this level, the analyst forecasts an even higher breakout toward $4, representing a staggering 2,400% rally from the meme coin’s current market value of $0.16.

VivoPower International’s pivot toward an XRP-denominated treasury was announced almost one month ago. What the market had not yet heard—in detail—was why the Nasdaq-listed firm chose XRP over Bitcoin and Ether, how it intends to wring yield from that position, and what its architects believe the next half-decade will look like for crypto-native corporates.

Those answers arrived in a 40-minute interview with Thinking Crypto host Tony Edward, where Executive Chairman and CEO Kevin Chin and Board-of-Advisors Chair Adam Traidman offered the most granular view to date of the company’s strategy.

Why VivoPower Chose XRP

“My crypto journey actually started with buying XRP in 2016,” Chin said, explaining that the token’s original use case—low-cost transfers into emerging markets—mirrored the geographies where he operates both for-profit and non-profit ventures. “Fast-forward to today, when the opportunity came about to turn Vivo into an XRP-focused treasury and DeFi solutions company, I really felt convicted to do that, as did the rest of the board.”

That personal conviction dovetailed with what Traidman called a glaring market gap: “We’ve all been watching digital-asset treasury companies after Michael Saylor’s huge success … VivoPower was the first with XRP.” More than a hundred listed companies now hold Bitcoin for balance-sheet alpha, he noted, but none had taken the same leap with XRP despite its deep liquidity and “very large following globally.”

Where MicroStrategy treats bitcoin as inert digital gold, VivoPower wants an asset it can work with. “Most of these treasury companies are focused on a net asset that doesn’t have native utility,” Traidman said. “Using a token which does have real utility is even more powerful because we can influence that utility by growing the ecosystem.”

To that end, VivoPower will entrust custody and OTC conversions to BitGo, stake a portion of its holdings on Flare Network to earn yield, and recycle excess dollars into Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin for cross-border settlements. “In the next few weeks, we’re going to start trialing that with regards to some of our Philippines-based businesses,” Chin confirmed, citing firsthand frustration with SWIFT delays into Southeast Asia and Africa.

The 5-Year Plan

Unlike a spot ETF, the corporate structure lets VivoPower share those yields directly with investors. “That would be the plan,” Traidman said when asked whether staking income could flow out as a dividend. “It’s a real differentiator for potential investors who want the upside of XRP and yield.”

That yield focus is already shaping capital strategy. VivoPower will fund initial purchases with equity, anchored by Prince Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia, an XRP holder since 2017. Borrowing could follow, but only “if the cost-of-capital equation stacks up,” Chin said, praising ex-Goldman CFO David Mansfield for “judicious” discipline.

Both executives addressed the specter of crypto volatility head-on. “There is some fervor in the markets in terms of treasury-based strategies,” Chin conceded, yet argued that swings become “an asset that you can generate yield off.” His remedy is time horizon: “We think in five-year cycles when we formulate strategy and execution plans.”

Traidman, who built one of the first iOS bitcoin wallets before selling it to Coinbase, framed the macro backdrop as uniquely favorable. Spot-crypto ETFs and more accommodative US regulators, he said, have created “a really strong floor” beneath top-tier tokens. “It’s too big to fail … The downside risk is going down.”

Under nondisclosure obligations, Chin declined to detail forthcoming deals, but disclosed that due diligence is under way on startups building atop the XRP Ledger—investments that could both earn venture returns and expand use-cases for VivoPower’s treasury. The company’s own subsidiaries will pilot RLUSD-based remittances, with an eye toward expanding into Ghana, Kenya, and other markets where dollar liquidity is scarce.

Chin summed up the ambition succinctly: “We will still be here in five years’ time, in ten years’ time, irrespective of what goes on in the market,” because the model extends beyond holding a volatile asset to “engaging and building DeFi solutions that ultimately generate income and cash.”

At press time, XRP traded at $2.08.

The altcoin market has faced relentless volatility and extended periods of selling pressure, leaving many investors questioning when the long-anticipated altseason will finally arrive. Since late last year, analysts and traders have been closely watching for signs of a broad recovery across the altcoin space, but momentum has remained muted as capital rotated primarily into Bitcoin and select large-cap tokens.

However, new on-chain data from CryptoQuant offers a potential shift in sentiment. As of June 27, the average monthly exchange flow for altcoins has dropped to $1.6 billion, notably below the annual average of $2.5 billion. Historically, such reductions in exchange flows have coincided with phases of asset consolidation and accumulation, often preceding large upward moves.

This suggests that investors may be quietly positioning for the next major altcoin rally, building exposure as prices stabilize and volatility compresses. While macroeconomic uncertainty and geopolitical risks continue to weigh on market sentiment, the underlying trend of declining exchange flows may be signaling a brewing shift in market dynamics. If historical patterns repeat, this environment could mark the early stages of a powerful altseason — one fueled by accumulation rather than speculation.

Altcoin Market Finds Hope in Accumulation Patterns and Historical Flow Trends

Altcoins have had a tough ride since December, with the majority of assets down more than 70% from their local highs. The broader altcoin market — led by Ethereum — has struggled to find firm support or attract meaningful demand. Persistent macro uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, and capital flight toward Bitcoin have kept altcoins in a vulnerable state for months. Despite short-lived rebounds, the sector has yet to stage a sustainable recovery.

However, some analysts view this stagnation not as a sign of weakness but as a foundational phase for the next bullish expansion. According to top analyst Axel Adler, recent on-chain data offers a potentially bullish signal. As of June 27, the average monthly altcoin exchange flow is just $1.6 billion, well below the yearly average of $2.5 billion. This subdued activity implies reduced selling pressure and the possibility of quiet accumulation by long-term investors.

Adler also points to historical data that reinforces this perspective. On the chart, green circles mark previous moments when monthly flows fell below the $1.6 billion baseline: early 2023, late 2023, and August–September 2024. In all cases, these low-flow periods preceded major rallies across the altcoin market.

If this pattern holds, the current environment could represent a critical accumulation window before the long-awaited altseason. As liquidity dries up on exchanges and sellers disappear, the stage may be set for a supply squeeze and strong upward momentum. While risks remain, the combination of depressed valuations and flow dynamics suggests that altcoins could soon awaken from their prolonged slumber, especially if Ethereum regains strength and leads the charge.

TOTAL2 Reclaims $1.11T: Key Support Holds Amid Rebound

The TOTAL2 chart, which tracks the total crypto market cap excluding Bitcoin, shows that the altcoin market is holding a critical support level after a strong rebound. As of June 27, TOTAL2 sits at $1.11 trillion, up 5.75% on the week. This level coincides with the 50-week moving average and the upper boundary of a longer-term support zone.

After months of underperformance, altcoins are showing signs of strength, bouncing off the 200-week moving average ($879B) and reclaiming both the 100-week ($965B) and 50-week ($1.11T) SMAs. The recent weekly candle shows a strong bullish engulfing pattern, hinting at renewed interest and capital rotation into altcoins. Volume is also picking up, which supports the case for a potential trend reversal.

Still, the altcoin market remains in a broader consolidation phase. A confirmed breakout above $1.2 trillion would mark a clear shift in momentum and likely trigger wider altcoin rallies. Until then, TOTAL2 needs to hold the $1T psychological level to maintain structure and investor confidence.

Ripple Labs is taking a significant step in its protracted legal struggle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by withdrawing its cross appeal regarding the sale of its XRP tokens. 

Ripple Moves To Close Legal Chapter

CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced the decision on Friday on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), stating that both Ripple and the SEC are expected to drop their respective appeals, signaling a potential resolution to a dispute that has lasted several years.

Garlinghouse emphasized that the blockchain payments company is determined to close this chapter and shift its focus towards its core mission: building the “Internet of Value.” 

The decision comes after a tumultuous period marked by legal challenges over the classification of XRP as a security. This period was characterized by the leadership of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who was criticized for his “regulation by enforcement” approach.

The SEC had previously sued Ripple, alleging violations of securities laws during the sale of XRP tokens, which has been a contentious issue in the cryptocurrency landscape.

Turning Point For XRP

The legal saga reached a pivotal moment in 2023 when a judge ruled that while XRP sales on public exchanges were legal, the $728 million in sales to institutional investors were indeed in violation of securities regulations. 

Following this ruling, both Ripple and the SEC filed appeals, but discussions of a settlement emerged when both parties agreed to resolve the matter if the judge were to set aside her injunction and reduce the $125 million fine imposed on Ripple. However, that request was denied by the judge, prompting Ripple’s latest decision.

By withdrawing its cross appeal, Ripple aims to expedite the resolution of this lengthy legal battle, which has cast a shadow over the company and the broader cryptocurrency market. 

As of press time, the XRP price had recovered slightly, rising 1.5% toward $2.14. This follows a steep drop of over 4% on Thursday, after Judge Torres’s decision caused the fourth-largest cryptocurrency to retrace toward $1.90.

Bitcoin is showing signs of renewed strength on the 4-hour chart, with bullish momentum building. The price is climbing steadily, supported by higher lows and improving volume. As BTC pushes against resistance levels, technical indicators are turning upward, reinforcing the bullish outlook.

MACD and RSI Point To Bullish Shift

Bitcoin is trending upward after a recent downtrend, with the structure setting up for a continuation move. According to Gemxbt, support is holding around $104,000, and resistance is forming near $108,000, creating a tight but favorable trading range.

Momentum indicators are flashing bullish signals. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is around 60, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has confirmed a bullish crossover. Gemxbt points out that an entry around $106,000, with a stop-loss placed at $104,000, looks promising.

The analyst also revealed that Bitcoin’s 4-hour chart is shaping up with a consolidation pattern within an upward trend, forming higher lows and higher highs, a classic sign of bullish structure building strength. Currently, key support is around $104,000, providing a solid base for the ongoing trend, while resistance near $110,000 acts as the next hurdle for a breakout.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains neutral, suggesting that there is still room for movement in either direction. The MACD is showing bullish momentum, reinforcing the case for a continuation to the upside.

Crypto analyst Elias ₿Lake also mentioned that the Bitcoin daily chart is currently testing resistance, with positive momentum building across the broader Bitcoin landscape. As such, Elias believes the resistance zone won’t last much longer.

Additionally, funding rates are negative, indicating the market is in short supply, especially when paired with liquidation maps that show a clear upside. The setup is ready for a breakout, as Elias eyes the $112,000 as the next price target.

Bitcoin 4-Hour Chart Flashes Bullish Momentum — Breakout Brewing?

Bitcoin has broken above a key trendline on the 1-day chart, confirming a bullish shift after bouncing from a strong demand zone. This breakout marks a technical development, and now, a retest is in progress, often viewed as a prime entry zone before the next leg up.

Analyst GîZ highlighted a target of $125,000, assuming the price continues to hold above the support zone between $107,000 and $103,000. This structure represents a textbook break-out and retest, a pattern that often precedes strong upward continuation if the retest holds.

Global liquidity is on the rise and starting to reflect in Bitcoin price action. The M2 money supply of liquidity just crossed the $112,000 mark on the 3-month chart, and BTC appears to be closely following that curve.

Lastly, Zhao Lusi emphasizes a repeating lead-leg pattern, where liquidity trends first, and BTC follows next. If the trend holds, Zhao believes the next BTC breakout may already be in motion.

Dogecoin ยังคงแกว่งตัวในกรอบแคบระหว่างแนวรับที่ 0.15 ดอลลาร์ และแนวต้านที่ 0.23 ดอลลาร์ โดยมีปริมาณซื้อขายต่ำกว่าค่าเฉลี่ย ซึ่งบ่งชี้ว่าการที่กราฟจะสามารถทะลุแนวต้านได้จำเป็นต้องมีแรงซื้อมากกว่านี้

หลังจาก Dogecoin ปรับลงจากจุดสูงล่าสุดก็เริ่มทรงตัวในโซนการซื้อขายที่สำคัญและมีการสะสมพลังในช่วงแนวรับที่ 0.15 ดอลลาร์

จุดสังเกตทางเทคนิคที่สำคัญ

• แนวรับสำคัญที่ 0.15 ดอลลาร์: เป็นระดับต่ำสุดของรอบที่ผ่านมา และยังทำหน้าที่เป็นแนวรับระยะยาวต่อไป
• แนวต้านที่จุดสำคัญ: ราคายังคงถูกจำกัดไว้ที่กรอบระหว่าง 0.15-0.23 ดอลลาร์ ซึ่ง Dogecoin ต้องฝ่าไปให้ได้เพื่อเปลี่ยนแนวโน้มโครงสร้างราคา
• ปริมาณซื้อขายยังไม่มากพอ: ปริมาณการซื้อขายรายวันยังอยู่ในระดับต่ำซึ่งไม่เพียงพอที่จะยืนยันการทะลุแนวต้านอย่างมั่นคง

โดยภาพรวม Dogecoin ในกรอบแคบ ๆ และยังไม่มีทิศทางที่ชัดเจน อย่างไรก็ตาม หาก Dogecoin สามารถทรงตัวเหนือระดับ 0.15 ดอลลาร์ได้อย่างมั่นคงและมีปริมาณการซื้อขายเข้ามาสนับสนุนมากพออย่างต่อเนื่องก็อาจเป็นจุดเริ่มต้นของการปรับขึ้นสู่แนวต้านถัดไปที่ 0.23 ดอลลาร์หรือมากกว่านั้น

นักลงทุนควรจับตาปริมาณซื้อขายและสัญญาณการยืนยันโครงสร้างก่อนเข้าสู่จังหวะการเทรดแบบมีทิศทาง

The XRP Ledger (XRPL) has witnessed some developments in recent times, which are set to boost the network’s activity. This includes the Wormhole integration, which enables interoperability and unlocks access to other networks. 

XRP Ledger Integrates Wormhole For Network Interoperability 

In an X post, Wormhole announced that it has partnered with Ripple to bring multichain interoperability to the XRP Ledger and the upcoming XRPL EVM Sidechain. Wormhole will be the core interoperability platform for the XRPL ecosystem. This integration will further expand the network’s adoption, as users will now be able to transfer their assets from the XRPL to other major networks. 

Wormhole also noted that this would bring new connectivity for developers and institutions looking to build multichain applications, whether for payments, DeFi, and RWA use cases. The XRP Ledger continues to expand, considering the integration and launch of new initiatives on the network, including the recent integration of Circle’s USDC stablecoin. 

Furthermore, Bitcoinist reported that the European Central Bank (ECB) is testing the XRP Ledger for bond settlement. Specifically, the ECB is working on the Axiology DLT Trading and Settlement System (TSS). However, it is worth mentioning that Axiology is a “private, permissioned infrastructure” which is built using the XRPL’s open-source code. As such, this bond settlement won’t exactly run on the network. 

Ripple Chief Technology Officer (CTO) David Schwartz declared that Real World Assets (RWAs) will drive the next wave of adoption for the XRP Ledger. This explains why the network is actively promoting asset tokenization. Ondo Finance recently launched its tokenized US Treasury fund (OUSG) on the network. Meanwhile, Guggenheim partnered with Ripple to launch the first Digital Commercial Paper on the XRPL.

XRPL Gets A New Lift With Software Upgrade

The XRPL Ledger is also set to witness new improvements with the Rippled 2.5.0 version, which just went live. The network upgrade includes major features such as a permissioned decentralized exchange (DEX). This adds DEXs that control who can participate and allows for compliant trading. 

It marks a major step towards onboarding institutions as these regulated players can trade on the XRP Ledger’s DEX using verified credentials. The feature also enables KYC-gated FX swaps and stablecoin flows. Essentially, this permissioned DEX feature promotes compliance and is expected to attract more developers. 

Another feature introduced by the XRP Ledger upgrade is Permission Delegation, which enables accounts to delegate permissions to other accounts for management and automation purposes. In an X post, Ripple developers explained that the potential use cases for this feature include MiCA compliance, RLUSD stablecoin operations, and corporate treasury management.

The upgrade also introduces support for IOUs and MPTs under token escrow. The XRP Ledger’s escrow feature would support other tokens besides XRP. There is also the batch feature, which adds the ability to group multiple transactions and execute them together.

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.09, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

World Liberty Financial hit headlines this week after a major token buy sent shockwaves through crypto circles. Based on reports, an Abu Dhabi fund snapped up 100 million worth of WLFI governance tokens. That purchase makes Aqua1 Foundation the largest holder—beating out Tron founder Justin Sun’s 30 million investment from last November.

Massive Token Purchase

According to World Liberty and Aqua1, the deal will help push ahead a blockchain-based financial system that ties stablecoins, real assets and on-chain tools together.

Aqua1 founding partner Dave Lee said the move targets new standards for “global capital efficiency.” He plans to team up with World Liberty on high-potential blockchain projects. Their pitch: merge old-school markets with token tech.

Political Connections Under Scrutiny

US President Donald Trump and his family stand to gain big. Three of his sons are co-founders of World Liberty. In June, Trump disclosed over 57 million in income tied to WLFI and revealed he holds nearly 16 billion governance tokens himself.

That kind of stake raises eyebrows on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers worry policy could tilt to favor projects backed by the president’s relatives.

Regulatory Battles Loom

Lawmakers are already debating how to rein in stablecoins. The GENIUS Act and other bills aim to set guardrails on token reserves and audits. Some proposals would bar presidents and future officeholders from holding digital assets while in power.

Reports disclosed that from a recent Senate hearing, Senators from both parties want clear rules to keep foreign money out of US policy decisions.

Market And Risk Signals

The crypto crowd knows a big token buy can push prices up. But they’ve also seen sharp sell-offs when insiders cash out. Nobody yet knows if Aqua1 or the Trump family plans a lock-up for their tokens.

If large amounts hit the market at once, WLFI could swing wildly. That risk might scare off cautious investors who worry about dumping.

Deal History And Context

This is not World Liberty’s first political play. In May, Eric Trump said Abu Dhabi’s MGX would use World Liberty’s USD1 stablecoin to settle a 2 billion investment in Binance.

That announcement came as Congress weighed stablecoin rules. Some lawmakers viewed it as a test of how far crypto could bend policy to suit private interests.

For now, WLFI token trading is under the lens. Traders will watch lock-up schedules and any word on token releases. Regulators will study audit reports and reserve balances.

US President Donald Trump’s deep ties keep the story rolling. Investors will need to decide if the project’s bold goals outweigh the political red flags and possible market storms.

At a Senate Banking Committee hearing yesterday, executive director of the President’s Council of Advisers on Digital Assets Bo Hines sat flanked by Chairman Tim Scott and Digital Assets Subcommittee Chair Cynthia Lummis and confirmed that the United States has already begun moving seized or previously held Bitcoin into the newly created Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

Trump’s Bitcoin Reserve Play Advances

The disclosure came in response to a question about the execution of President Donald Trump’s March 6 executive order on digital assets. Hines explained that “the EO… mandated an accounting to take place in which the Treasury [is] spearheading that,” noting that the department has now “received the numbers from the different agencies inside of the government.” Those numbers reflect coins accumulated piecemeal over the past decade through criminal forfeitures, civil penalties, and unspent research allocations across multiple departments.

Describing the next phase, Hines told lawmakers that “there are a lot of different actors that held on to some Bitcoin and in some fashion or another,” adding that “now the process begins in […] establishing the reserve, the actual infrastructure behind it, and getting all of that accomplished.”

Hines stressed that publication of the full audit is optional: “There’s nothing in the EO that mandates that that report become public, but we could choose to make it public at some point.”

The administration’s strategic intent is unambiguous. “We’ve stated publicly that Bitcoin is digital gold,” Hines said, repeating language he has used since early March. “We believe it’s in the best interest of the United States to garner as much as we can possibly get.” That ambition, he added, must be squared with the order’s fiscal guard-rails: “Obviously this has to be done in budget-neutral ways that don’t cost the taxpayer a dime. The president was clear about that in the executive order.”

Hines, gesturing to the two senators beside him, struck an optimistic note with regards to acquiring Bitcoin in a budget-neutral way: “I think we have some very creative minds, two of which are sitting up here with me, and I think we’ll begin moving very quickly on that.”

GENIUS First, CLARITY Next, Bitcoin Last

Finding those budget-neutral mechanisms now falls to Capitol Hill. Senator Lummis reminded colleagues that the House-passed GENIUS Act—covering stablecoins—should reach the president for signing in July, while a Senate draft of a broader market-structure bill “is on track before the August recess,” with Banking Committee markup set for the first week of September.

Via X, “Crypto Czar” David Sacks confirmed: “Thank you to Senate Banking Committee Chair Senator Tim Scott and Digital Assets Subcommittee Chair Senator Lummis for announcing a clear timeline and plan for comprehensive crypto market structure legislation: Bill introduced before August recess, Mark up first week of September, Done by end of September. President Trump supports CLARITY on market structure as well as GENIUS on stablecoins. Let’s get this done! July will be a big month, with a bill signing for GENIUS, and CLARITY going to the Senate!”

Previously, Lummis made clear that the forthcoming bills on stablecoins and broader market structure would reach Congress before lawmakers take up the proposed Bitcoin Accumulation Act, which would authorize additional federal purchases of BTC.

At press time, Bitcoin traded at $106,766.

Ripple is at a crossroads following Judge Analisa Torres’ ruling in the long-running lawsuit against the SEC. The crypto firm will now have to decide whether to drop the appeal or move forward with it to get relief from Judge Torres’ judgment. 

Ripple Faces Setback In Lawsuit Against SEC

A court document shows that Judge Torres has denied Ripple and the SEC’s joint motion for an indicative ruling. The ruling was meant to absolve the crypto firm as both parties requested the judge to dissolve the injunction and reduce the monetary judgment to $50 million from $125 million. 

Judge Torres declared that Ripple and the SEC have failed to show exceptional circumstances that outweigh the public interest or the administration of justice. As such, she isn’t persuaded to modify her judgment. She also made it clear that if jurisdiction were restored to her court, she would still deny the parties’ request to vacate the injunction and reduce the civil penalty. 

The court also highlighted the fact that nothing, in relation to Ripple’s violations, has changed since the ruling against the crypto firm, but both parties hardly pretend it has. Judge Torres noted the SEC’s arguments and how the Commission made it clear back then that Ripple would continue to violate securities laws without an injunction. 

As such, she rejected the argument that the injunction and civil penalty only relate to unique facts of the case and not public interest. She alluded to the fact that the Commission argued that a civil penalty was also necessary to send a strong deterrent message to Ripple and others. The judge was also not convinced by the argument that the SEC had dropped other enforcement actions, noting that the facts in those cases differed from the Ripple case. 

What’s Next In The XRP Lawsuit 

Judge Torres remarked that Ripple and the SEC are free to withdraw their appeals if they genuinely want the lawsuit to end already. On the other hand, she stated that the crypto firm may continue with its appeal if it really desires relief from her final judgment. The judge made it clear that Ripple and the SEC do not have the authority to agree not to be bound by a final judgment. 

As such, they can’t simply set her judgment aside because they have a settlement agreement in place. Instead, only a higher court can set aside her judgment on appeal. Legal expert Fred Rispoli predicts that Ripple and the SEC will drop their appeals and agree on a $50 million settlement, with the injunction remaining in place. 

Ripple Chief Legal Officer (CLO) Stuart Alderoty noted that the ball is now in their court, and they will decide on what to do next. He agreed with Judge Torres that they can either drop the appeal or challenge the finding on the historical institutional sales with the appeal. Either way, he remarked that XRP’s legal status as not a security remains unchanged.

Since reclaiming the $107,000 price mark on Wednesday, Bitcoin has managed to hold strongly above this key level, reflecting its robust resilience despite a recent pullback. Following the renewed upward trend, bullish sentiment is growing stronger among key BTC investors on crypto exchanges.

Large Bitcoin Transfers To Exchanges Nosedive

Given the recent upsurge in Bitcoin’s price, major investors on crypto exchanges are starting to turn optimistic about the asset’s future performance. Darkfost, a verified author and on-chain analyst who shared the development on X, highlighted that Bitcoin whale inflows to exchanges are experiencing a sharp decline when compared to the past month. This trend signals a potential shift in market dynamics toward a more confident state among whale holders.

A sharp drop in whale inflows to exchanges reflects a retreat from immediate selling pressure, perhaps a revived preference for long-term holdings. It is mostly regarded as a bullish signal because reduced whale inflows often precede periods of price spikes, as it limits massive sell-offs.

As Bitcoin broke above the $100,000 mark and pushed toward a new all-time high, Darkfost stated that large investors took advantage of the rally and secured notable gains. The same action from these holders was seen back in 2024.

“Actually, the current pattern closely resembles what we saw in 2024 when BTC was reaching a new ATH,” the on-chain expert added. During this ongoing period of upward price performance, there was a brief second, lesser wave of inflows before inflows began to decline once again. 

This second wave of inflows was a result of the $2 billion in capital inflows recorded on June 16. However, Darkfost revealed that the inflows were entirely due to an internal transaction on Binance that moved over 20,000 BTC, while underscoring the importance of monitoring the metric on a monthly level for a much clearer signal.

If whale inflows continue to reduce on exchanges and history repeats itself, the expert is confident that the development might set the stage for Bitcoin to rally to a new all-time high in the near term.

BTC Next Big Move Approaching

Crypto analysts, such as Titan of Crypto, have hinted at a move to a new all-time high. In his recent analysis, the technical expert and trader highlighted that BTC could be gearing up for its next major move beyond its current peak.

Titan of Crypto’s forecast is supported by a key Inverse Head and Shoulders formation on the 1-month chart, which has remained valid since it emerged. Looking at the chart, Bitcoin broke out from the neckline of the channel and later retested the line. 

However, BTC’s price held strong above this line and rebounded sharply back to the $107,000 threshold. Should this ongoing uptrend persist, Titan of Crypto anticipates a robust surge to the $125,000 mark.

Президент США Дональд Трамп заявил на пресс-конференции в Белом доме, что биткоин помогает ослабить давление на доллар США. Трамп пообещал, что США станут лидером развития цифровых активов, чтобы не позволить Китаю доминировать на рынке.

Philippe Laffont—the billionaire behind Coatue Management—went and dropped Bitcoin into his “Fantastic 40,” his own shortlist of what he thinks will shine as top investments over the next five years.

Laffont ranked Bitcoin alongside Amazon, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Meta, while leaving out Apple and Google.

He says waking up at 3 a.m. wondering why he missed out drove him to rethink his stance. Based on reports from CNBC, he hasn’t bought any yet but thinks its market cap could jump past $5 trillion by 2030. That would put it in the same league as the biggest tech names.

Billionaire Upbeat About Bitcoin

According to his own research, the Coatue Management big boss sees Microsoft climbing to a $5.7 trillion valuation and Nvidia reaching $5.6 trillion in the next five years.

He paints Bitcoin as a rival asset, forecasting it will more than double from roughly $2.1 trillion today. He says the world’s net worth of $450–500 trillion gives room for new winners.

Equities sit near $120 trillion and gold above and under ground at about $20 trillion. His case rests on bigger acceptance and smoother swings in price.

Bold Market Cap Forecasts

Based on his figures, Bitcoin must average around 10–15% annual growth to hit $5 trillion by 2030. He sees volatility shrinking from daily moves of 5–7% to roughly half of that. That, he says, makes the crypto feel more like the Nasdaq.

The tycoon points to de-dollarization as another tailwind. If global players shift away from the US dollar, Bitcoin could pick up more steam.

Shaky Views From Others

Not everyone is convinced. Eric Semler of Semler Scientific notes lots of hedge funds still doubt Bitcoin’s staying power. They worry momentum will vanish once the US President Donald Trump factor fades.

Meanwhile, Bybit’s Shunyet Jan forecasts Bitcoin at $125,000 by the end of Q2 if current trends hold. Crypto analyst Scott Melker goes even further, predicting a surge to $250,000 by end-2025 thanks to more big investors jumping in.

Semler’s Own Bet

Semler Scientific already holds 4,450 BTC. The firm plans to build that to 10,000 by year-end. Its chairman says many peers aren’t ready to follow suit. They see Bitcoin as too tied to politics. That caution keeps some big wallets on the sidelines.

What Could Go Wrong

Regulatory moves remain the biggest wild card. Harsh rules could stall growth and scare off new buyers. Competition is rising too. Ether staking, Layer 2 networks and central bank digital currencies might chip away at Bitcoin’s crown. And a strong rebound in the US dollar or a broad stock sell-off could pull crypto down with it.

Following Judge Analisa Torres’ June 26 denial of Ripple and the SEC’s joint motion for an indicative ruling, crypto attorney Fred Rispoli has delivered a blistering breakdown of the legal and political dynamics behind the decision—and issued a clear prediction on when the XRP lawsuit may finally conclude.

Rispoli, founder of Hodl Law and one of the most outspoken legal voices in the XRP community, wasted no time analyzing the ruling, which rejected both parties’ efforts to modify the court’s final judgment and resolve the long-running case at the appellate level.

XRP Lawsuit Shaken By Denial

“I thought Judge Torres would grant the first motion,” Rispoli wrote in a lengthy post on X, “recognizing that the anti-crypto war of the Gensler Era was political animus and that the agency was moving in a different direction under new leadership.” But Torres, he said, “chose not to,” and “there was zero obstacle to her granting the motion and moving on.”

In his view, the refusal was less about legal deficiency and more about institutional frustration or political motivation. “There are only two reasons for this,” Rispoli argued. “One, she was pissed that the parties wasted 4.5 years of her time with bitter litigation… Two, she is hostile to the Trump administration and will do what she can to throw up obstacles.”

Rispoli’s analysis extended sharply to the SEC’s failure to support the motion with official testimony that could have helped the court reconsider its prior findings of reckless conduct by Ripple. Citing pages 3 and 4 of Torres’ order, Rispoli pointed out that “the ruling parrot[s] back the SEC’s own words of how egregious, dangerous, and reckless the SEC believed Ripple to be and why a $1 BILLION fine was necessary.”

He emphasized that nothing in the SEC’s submission countered those prior statements with institutional acknowledgment of past errors. “I said that the second motion had to have some actual testimony by SEC Commissioners,” he wrote, imagining declarations such as: “I, Commissioner Peirce, voted against this ridiculous lawsuit because it was a waste of our enforcement resources,” or “I, Commissioner Atkins… determined the SEC enforcement division under the prior administration acted arbitrarily, capriciously and often with bad faith.”

None of that materialized. “This obviously did not happen,” Rispoli said, and offered two possible explanations. “(1) Ripple and the SEC did not discuss this necessity… (2) Ripple did ask and the SEC said, ‘We are not making ourselves look like idiot assholes. This crappy motion on SEC letterhead is the best I can offer.’”

He concluded that the second explanation is most likely, and said the SEC’s institutional behavior remains unchanged. “The SEC is going to do what it has done for decades: protect its own regardless of the administration in charge or detriment to the public.”

That belief fuels Rispoli’s broader frustration with US regulatory governance. “If you ever want to know the types of pieces of shit that sit atop the SEC, type into your browser ‘david aguirre sec whistleblower’ and read up… I sue .gov agencies all the time for despicable behavior… This is the reason I am so invested in crypto—to opt out of our crumbling system.”

When Will The XRP Lawsuit End?

Looking ahead, Rispoli remains convinced that a settlement is coming soon. Responding to a reader who asked when the saga might finally end, Rispoli gave two scenarios for the August status update due to the Second Circuit: either the parties ask to resume the appeal, or they declare it settled.

“In that scenario, case doesn’t end until late 2026/early 2027,” he said of a revived appeal. But that’s not the outcome he expects. “I think we see (2) happen and get that announcement end of July/early August of this year.”

As for the implications of the court’s existing injunction against Ripple’s institutional XRP sales, Rispoli minimized its real-world effect. “It doesn’t affect $XRP on the secondary markets nor will it impact XRP ETF approvals,” he explained. While Torres technically retains authority to enforce it, Rispoli added, “The injunction only substantively matters if the SEC wants it to matter.”

He also noted that Ripple appears to be preparing to move forward under mutually tolerable terms. “If you look at the @s_alderoty post on this ruling from today,” Rispoli observed, “he used the term ‘historic institutional sales’ to describe the Torres-determined-bad-behavior. This signals to me that the parties are going to settle and move on with the understanding that XRP sales to institutions will be done in a way the SEC can live with.”

Though Judge Torres’ refusal to accommodate the proposed resolution was a procedural blow, Rispoli believes it will prove to be the final flashpoint in a case that is now headed toward closure. “The parties will drop their appeals, settle at $50M and move on with the injunction in place,” he wrote.

If his forecast is right, the XRP community could be less than six weeks away from the end of one of the most consequential enforcement actions in crypto history.

At press time, XRP traded at $2.099.
