Large-scale liquidation in the crypto landscape makes people wonder what the best cipher to buy now. The market looks bearish right now as Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen from $117,000 to $113,000 and Ethereum has fallen from $3.7,000 to $3.4K.

According to X’s post by Maelstrom CEO Arthur Hays, macroeconomic factors such as weak credit expansion across the major economies are slowing growth in nominal GDP and could be involved in reducing BTC and ETH to $100K and 3K levels.

Hayes’ comments reflect broader industry concerns that harsher credit, rising tariffs and tensions from the cooling labor market could derail the upward trajectory of the crypto.

BTC has slid 7.7% since its peak at $123,000 on July 14th, while ETH has fallen 12.5% since violating the $3.9,000 barrier on July 28th. The retreat to $100K represents a pullback of 18.7% from the recent highs in BTC.

Meanwhile, many industry analysts point out that BTC is past double digit pullbacks of all kinds. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balknass notes that since BlackRock’s spot BTC ETF filing, the crypto king has faced a lesser degree of volatility.

Meanwhile, the Fear and Greed index fell from 65 on Thursday to 53, and is now in the neutral zone. However, analysts argue that the decline in BTC is nothing more than a bullish reset.

XRP trading volume increases rapidly amid large-scale sales

XRP witnessed a massive shortcoming yesterday, falling nearly 9% from $3.02 to $2.75 before the Bulls managed to get back to $2.83. The decline comes amidst a surge institutional sales, resulting in trading volumes rising more than twice the norm.

24 hours7d30D1Yeverytime

The market raged on XRP with a 24-hour volatile window that closes on August 3rd. On August 2nd, traders exchanged a massive 222.24 million XRP tokens.

Incredibly, this all happened on August 2, 2025 in a four-hour window.

XRP finally found a footing for $2.75, but whenever it exceeded $2.84, it met consistent resistance.

Now, all eyes are stuck with whether XRP can hold the ground at the $2.75 level. Conversely, it must break above the $2.84 level to indicate that the bearish trend is over.

The 24-hour range shows XRP has dropped by more than 8.91% on a price swing of $0.27. There may be a quiet buildup that forms under the $2.80 mark, but without putting any pressure on it, it’s all smoke.

XRP price forecast this week

Arijit Mukherjee

by Arijit Mukherjee

Analysts suggest that XRP’s four-hour price charts show signs of bullish divergence, which could lead to a 20% short-term price surge by the end of August.

According to their calculations, XRP price actions create a series of low lows, as opposed to the higher lows made by the relative strength index (RSI). This difference between prices and RSI often reflects a weaker momentum.

A classic falling wedge on the 4-hour chart shows XRP looking for a breakout. The XRP/USD pair bounces off the lower edge of the wedge around the 200-4H EMA (The Blue Wave), indicating that the buyer is intervening.

Violating XRP’s top price trendlines will launch a rally of up to 20%, potentially targeting the range of $3.60-$3.65, and close to $3.07 for the exchange level of 0.236 Fibonacci.

A wealth management firm overseeing $48 billion in assets believes that the S&P 500 will end the year at a much higher level.

In a new CNBC interview, the Indianapolis-based Sanctuary Wealth says conditions are conspiring to push risk assets such as the stock market to new record-high levels by the end of the year.

Mary Ann Bartels, the firm’s chief investment strategist, says investors are not prepared for a huge upside burst for the S&P 500.

“We need growth and AI (artificial intelligence), and I think it’s coming. I think it’s going to significantly impact corporate earnings, productivity, and it’s going to show up in the equity markets. 

It’s not just a bull market here. It’s a bull market globally. You’re seeing European markets break out. I think you’re going to get the Japanese market to break out. It’s a global secular bull market driven by all this new innovation from AI, to blockchain, to crypto, to Web3. 

And I don’t think all of this is yet priced in to the market, and you can see, we’re already in a summer melt-up. The market is not positioned for this yet.”

Bartels says she agrees with the sentiment that technological advancements in AI and Web3 will usher in a disinflationary trend, forcing the Federal Reserve to ease monetary policy.

“I do think rates are trending down, and can go much lower than people expect. Right now, we’re in heightened fear that tariffs are going to bring inflation, and I think over time, especially trending into next year, we can get rates down.

And that’s going to be another stimulus for risk assets, for the equity market, for the crypto market.”

As for her price targets for the S&P 500, Bartels says,

“I’m comfortable getting to year-end at 7,000, and I think in the first quarter of next year, we might even be at 7,200.”

Sanctuary Wealth is an independent wealth management platform that works with 495 licensed professionals and 120 partner firms across 30 states.

As of Friday’s close, the S&P 500 is trading at 6,296 points.

An ancient Bitcoin whale that woke up for the first time in 14 years earlier this month is making headlines again with another multi-billion-dollar BTC transfer.

About 10 days ago, two Bitcoin addresses that each had 10,000 BTC were each emptied within minutes of each other on the 4th of July.

The two wallets had received their respective Bitcoin on April 3rd of 2011 when BTC was trading at $0.78 a piece.

Then, last week, Coinbase director Conor Grogan suggested that the whale wallets could potentially be linked to a hack after finding that one of the wallets appears to have made a test transaction on the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) network just hours before the big move happened, suggesting that whoever was responsible for the transfer was trying to go unnoticed.

Now, according to pseudonymous crypto analyst Satoshi Stacker, one of the two whales is at it again, moving almost $5 billion worth of BTC to new wallets.

“The 80,000 BTC whale has moved 40,000 BTC worth around $4.7 billion to new addresses.

Around $2 billion of that BTC has then been transferred to centralized exchanges, likely to be sold.

Are you buying this dip?”

Source: Satoshi Stacker/X

While the wallets were dormant since April of 2011, they also received trace amounts of Bitcoin during the intervening period, possibly due to dusting attacks conducted to try to sniff out the entities behind the addresses. Dusting attacks are typically conducted by researchers, law enforcement officials or criminals.

The phenomenon of long-dormant addresses suddenly getting active spurs media interest due to their potential link to the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, who remains a mystery more than one and a half decades since the crypto king was introduced to the world.

Bitcoin is trading for $117,195 at time of writing, a 2.2% decrease on the day.

Gemini, a crypto exchange built by everyone’s favorite same twins, Cameron and Tyler Winclevos quietly took a big step towards the public. They filed confidentially for the IPO and once everything went well, we were able to quickly see Gemini trades on traditional stock exchanges.

Just the right time

To be honest, crypto companies haven’t always ridden the smoothest on the open market. But Gemini submissions come at a rather strategic moment. With Bitcoin over $70,000 and Ethereum back in green, the general mood of Crypto Land is cautiously optimistic. Even in the landscape of regulation, meanwhile Still bumpy, I feel it a bit It’s less hostile than it was a year ago.

Instead of airing Outside Their finances from the beginning, Gemini I went Confidential root. This allows you to test the water and adjust things behind the scenes before you fully commit. This is a move that many well-known companies have used to avoid investor sports when the market changes.

What Gemini brings to the table

The Gemini, released in 2014, is more than just a crypto exchange. Winklevoss Brothers tried to draw it as a clean, buttoned alternative Wild West of digital assets. This was one of the few platforms I lean out Regulations boasting a reputation for New York’s licenses, SOC audits and security.

Gemini offers crypto trading, staking, custody services, and even Crypto Rewards credit cards. Over the years, I’ve played games that are more conservative than my competitors like Binance and FTX, but that’s appealing to some institutional investors.

Why this IPO is important

The circle has pulled away from its own IPO with a flashy debut, but now it appears Gemini is ready to follow suit. If Gemini is landing, it could indicate that a crypto company focused on compliance and infrastructure is back to the good bounty of Wall Street.

This could also encourage others in the space to test the water. Companies like Kraken and Opensea have been thinking about flirting in the open market for many years. The successful Gemini Poe is a victory for the twins and the green light for the next wave of crypto companies looking to listings.

What is the catch?

Crypto companies are still facing scrutiny while things look up. Gemini has had their own brawls with regulators for the past year, especially with regard to the now-deprecated acquisition program. but that It looks like Most of these legal clouds are cleared.

It is also worth remembering that code sentiment can be reversed quickly. If a market tank or lawmaker decides to tighten the rope, its IPO window may close. Gemini takes the calculated risk here, betting that demand for crypto exposure in the stock market is still strong.

Final Thoughts

Winklevoss Twins has created a name bring the action Facebook doubled Bitcoin when most people thought it was a joke. Now they want to bring Gemini to the public, and they do it quietly but intentionally. If they pull it off, it will be another milestone in the crypto march to mainstream finances, but only this time, suits and ties.

    The surge in mainstream artificial intelligence (AI) tools over the past few years has stirred up the crypto and blockchain industry to explore decentralized alternatives to large-scale technological products.

    The synergy of AI and blockchain is built on addressing the risks of centralized ownership and the risks of access to data that enhances AI. The theory is that decentralization can be mitigated for the entire AI economy driven by data owned by a handful of technology giants such as Alphabet (GOOG), Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Alibaba (9988) and Tencent (0700).

    It is still unknown whether this is a critical issue, and it is far less likely to solve the blockchain industry. But what’s clear is that crypto venture capitalists (VCSs) are willing to spend millions of dollars of discoveries. Decentralized AI has so far raised $917 million in VC and private equity money, according to Tracxn of Startup Deal Platform.

    The question is whether the trend towards blockchain-based AI investments is still built on hype or is it becoming real?

    Blockchain investment firm Theta Capital described AI X Crypto as the “inevitable backbone of AI” in its recent “satellite view” report.

    AI Agent

    “There is no tendency to stand out more than the intersection of AI and Crypto,” the report states using an example of an AI agent that trades on the blockchain and launches tokens.

    While this may seem like a more refined measurement, Theta argues that it is the route to tackling some of the AI ​​problems that only cryptography can solve.

    “Crypto Wallets enables autonomous agents to participate in financial markets,” according to the report. “Decentralized token networks bootstraps the supply side of the major AI infrastructure for calculation, data and energy.”

    The conclusions of the report are far from hype or speculation. AI X Crypto is “The New Meta.” Meta stands for the term “metagame” borrowed from a game that refers to a major way of playing with regard to characters, strategies, or movements based on highly competitive situations.

    Distributed AI

    Alex Pack, managing partner at blockchain venture capital firm Hack VC, described Web3 AI as “Alpha’s biggest source of investment today” in its “Satellite View” report.

    Hack VC has dedicated 41% of its latest funds to Web3 AI. This considers the main challenges that build the main challenges of building a decentralized alternative to the AI ​​economy.

    “The rapid evolution of AI is generating large-scale efficiency, but also increasing centralization,” Pack said.

    “The intersection of crypto and AI is the biggest investment opportunity in this space, offering an open, decentralized alternative.”

    One of Hack VC’s most prominent portfolio companies is Grass. This encourages users to join AI networks by providing unused internet bandwidth in exchange for tokens.

    It is designed to replace large companies that install software code in apps to rub user data.

    “Users unconsciously donate bandwidth without compensation,” Grass founder Andrej Radonjic said in a report in Theta.

    “Grass offers an alternative (by) to form a large opt-in, peer-to-peer network that can create high-quality data at the scale of Google and Microsoft.”

    The scary AI “Takeover”

    Decentralized AI poses risk to investors, Theta acknowledges. It could lead to a surge in all the unwanted facets of the already existing Internet. In the cryptographic world, this example might be creating a meme token. Suspicious support, cleaning trades, pumps and dumps can all be handled more efficiently by AI engines than humans.

    Some VCs view blockchain as the basis for mitigation. Olaf Carlson-Wee, CEO and Founder of PolyChain, provided examples of proof of humanity mechanisms to ensure that users are human and are interfering with spam through micropayments or spam.

    “A cost of $0.01 when sending an email will destroy the economics of spam while still remaining affordable for the average user,” he said in the report.

    With blockchain potentially offering some of these safeguards, Carlsonwee believes that AI will support the digital and financial systems as it could outperform people in the market. He argues that this reality is willing to accept, rather than feared as a kind of dark dystopia.

    “As time passes, AI systems evolve into long-term capital allocation factors, predicting trends and opportunities in the next few years. (This) humans outsource funding because of their superior ability to make data-driven decisions.”

    “The AI ​​acquisition will not be a war we will lose — it will be a proposal we agree with,” he concluded.

    The Trump Administration’s embrace of crypto is reportedly putting international financial stability at risk, says Francois Villeroy de Galhau, a member of the European Central Bank’s (ECB) Governing Council.

    Villeroy de Galhau tells the French news outlet La Tribune Dimanche that the US “risks sinning through negligence,” according to Bloomberg.

    “Financial crises often originate in the United States and spread to the rest of the world. By encouraging crypto-assets and non-bank finance, the American administration is sowing the seeds of future upheavals.”

    The ECB official, who serves as governor of France’s central bank, also argues that Europe isn’t at risk of a banking crisis because the European Union (EU) is doing a superior job of supervising crypto.

    The ECB has also been pushing for a digital euro to counter US President Donald Trump’s embrace of dollar-pegged private sector stablecoins.

    ECB board member Piero Cipollone said at a conference in January that Trump’s new executive order on crypto could drive people away from banks.

    “I guess the key word here (in Trump’s executive order) is worldwide. This solution, you all know, further disintermediates banks as they lose fees, they lose clients… That’s why we need a digital euro.”

    However, vocal opposition to the ECB’s digital euro project swelled after the institution’s payment system crashed last month.

    TARGET2 (T2), the ECB’s real-time gross settlement system, went down in late February, which prevented payments from being processed for several hours.

    German MP Markus Ferber, a member of the European People’s Party, says the outage was “a blow to the ECB’s credibility.”

    “People will ask legitimate questions how the ECB will be able to run a digital euro when they cannot even keep their day-to-day operations running smoothly.”
