Shares of Gemini (GEMI) opened at $41 a share on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on Friday, rising 45% from last night’s IPO price.

The crypto exchange, which is run by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, priced its IPO at $28 a share, valuing the company at around $3.3 billion. It had sold 15.2 million shares, raising $425 million.

Gemini posted a net loss of $283 million in the first half of the year. That follows a $159 million loss for all of 2024, according to the company’s latest financials.

Despite the deepening red ink, Gemini priced its IPO nicely above the initially hoped-for level and secured a $50 million strategic investment from Nasdaq earlier this week. The stock exchange operator said the deal is intended to expand access to Gemini’s crypto custody services for institutional clients. It also positions Gemini as a distribution partner for Nasdaq’s trade management software, Calypso.

Gemini’s IPO follows that of other crypto-native platforms, including stablecoin issuer Circle (CRCL), Bullish (BLSH), eToro (ETOR) and Figure Technologies (FIGR), that also went public this year in what appears to be a booming capital market for crypto firms amidst a wave friendly U.S. regulatory action. Bullish Global is CoinDesk’s parent company.

US producer prices fell in August, reinforcing a weaker inflation outlook just a day after major revisions showed US employment levels overstated by nearly one million jobs.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the Producer Price Index declined 0.1 percent on the month, below forecasts for a 0.4 percent increase. Core PPI also fell 0.1 percent, with annual readings slowing to 2.8 percent from 3.4 percent in July.

The release follows last week’s data showing August nonfarm payrolls added only 22,000 positions, while unemployment rose to 4.3 percent. A separate benchmark revision revealed total employment had been overstated by 911,000 jobs, bringing the cumulative downward adjustment over the past year to 1.5 million.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the corrections showed the Federal Reserve maintained restrictive policy based on incomplete data.

Average hourly earnings rose 0.3 percent on the month and 3.7 percent from a year earlier, matching forecasts.

Combined with revised productivity figures showing a 3.3 percent gain in the second quarter and unit labor costs up just 1 percent, the inflation backdrop has eased. Still, services inflation remains firm, with the ISM prices index near 69 in August.

Markets rallied on the softer PPI print, viewing it as support for Federal Reserve rate cuts at the September policy meeting.

Bitcoin rose 1.1 percent to $113,449, while Ethereum gained 1.2 percent to $4,372. The S&P 500 climbed 0.34 percent to $654, extending earlier gains as investors priced in easier financial conditions.

Solana Is Now Observing 5.8 Bullish Comments For Every Bearish Post

In a new post on X, analytics firm Santiment has discussed about the latest trend in the Positive/Negative Sentiment for Solana. This indicator tells us about how the bullish and bearish comments related to SOL currently compare on the major social media platforms.

The metric uses a machine-learning model to judge whether a given post/thread/message is positive or negative. Once it has separated the texts into the two categories, it counts them up and finds their ratio.

Now, here is the chart shared by the analytics firm that shows the trend in the Solana Positive/Negative Sentiment over the last couple of months:

Solana Positive/Negative Sentiment

As displayed in the above graph, the Solana Positive/Negative Sentiment has witnessed a sharp increase recently, indicating that positive comments related to the cryptocurrency have ramped up.

Currently, there are 5.8 positive posts appearing for every negative post. This is the highest that the ratio’s value has been since June 11th, more than two months ago.

The rise in bullish sentiment is a result of the 16% price surge that SOL has enjoyed over the past week. While some excitement after rallies is normal, an excess of it can be something to watch out for. This is because digital assets have historically tended to move in a way that goes contrary to the expectations of the majority.

This means that a large amount of hype among social media users can lead to tops. Similarly, widespread fear can facilitate the formation of a bottom. With the Positive/Negative Sentiment sitting on an 11-week high, it now remains to be seen whether trader FOMO would become an obstacle in the Solana rally.

In some other news, Santiment has shared an update on how projects on the SOL blockchain currently rank up against each other in terms of the Development Activity.

The “Development Activity” refers to a metric that measures, as its name suggests, the total amount of work that the developers of a given cryptocurrency project are putting in on its public GitHub repositories.

Below is a table that shows the 30-day value of the metric for the top projects in the SOL ecosystem.

Solana Development Activity

It would appear that the king of the SOL ecosystem is none other than Solana itself, with a Development Activity value of 138.37. Wormhole (W) and Drift (DRIFT) are the next best projects with metric values of 41.47 and 31.9, respectively.

SOL Price

At the time of writing, Solana is trading around $212, up 1.6% over the past day.

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure

Ripple CTO David Schwartz has joined a heated debate after Custodia Bank CEO Caitlin Long criticized Ripple, the XRP Ledger (XRPL), and its stablecoin RLUSD in a podcast clip shared on X. Long questioned XRP’s decentralization, likened Ripple’s early funding to an ICO, and argued the blockchain had fallen short of its adoption goals among banks and other institutions. Her remarks drew quick pushback from XRP community member Vet, who disputed her claims, prompting Schwartz to invite Long to a direct, fact-based discussion.

Caitlin Long Criticizes Ripple And XRP

Caitlin Long, CEO of Custodia Bank, did not hold back in her view of Ripple and XRP in a recent episode of the Gold Goats ‘n Guns podcast. In her remarks in the podcast, Long noted that Ripple’s early funding model, which she described as the first of the ICOs, has permanently hindered institutional trust in XRP. She said Ripple had been active longer than most blockchain projects but had not made significant progress in replacing traditional banking systems like SWIFT. 

According to her, the company’s move to issue RLUSD through its own regulated financial entities is a notable pivot away from relying solely on the XRPL as a global settlement layer. Although she acknowledged that US regulatory pressure under the Biden administration had affected Ripple’s operations, she maintained that the base layer network was unlikely to become the backbone of international payments.

With this in mind, Long predicted that when the US Treasury eventually decides on a blockchain for tokenizing T-bills, it will most likely choose Ethereum over Ripple due to the former’s maturity and better adoption.

XRP Community And CTO Fire Back

Her comments prompted a detailed rebuttal from prominent XRP community member Vet, who dismissed Long’s claims as misinformed. As noted by Vet, Ripple never conducted an ICO, XRP was worthless when it was created, and all 100 billion tokens were created in a genesis account. Vet also defended the XRPL’s decentralization, pointing to over 1,000 nodes and more than 100 independent validators run by individuals and businesses worldwide. 

He noted that Ethereum, on the other hand, was launched via an ICO. In addition, Vet highlighted Ripple’s continued integration of the XRPL in its payment products and the fact that RLUSD is issued on the ledger. He cited growing business use cases, ongoing technical amendments, and the XRPL’s historic role as the first blockchain with a native decentralized exchange and tokenization capabilities.

Following Vet’s response, David Schwartz also took to X to directly address Caitlin Long’s claims. Although he noted that the community member had already provided “some basic ones” to start the factual discussion, the Ripple CTO invited Long to an open conversation about Ripple, RLUSD, the XRPL, and XRP.

Ether (ETH) jumped to $4,200 on Binance early Saturday, its highest since December 2021, after a two-day rally fueled by heavy trading and $207 million in short liquidations.

The move followed Friday’s breakout above $4,000 for the first time since December 2024, a technical milestone that drew in fresh buying and set the stage for Saturday’s push higher.

jwp-player-placeholder

Miles Deutscher said these forced buybacks helped accelerate the rally. In an earlier post, he described an “on-chain wealth effect”: as ETH’s price rises, both large holders and retail investors see their positions turn profitable, prompting them to reallocate capital into smaller, higher-risk tokens in pursuit of bigger gains. This dynamic, he said, can amplify rallies beyond ETH itself.

Deutscher also mapped out a three-stage market rotation he expects could take months to unfold: an ETH-led mini altcoin season, a rotation into bitcoin that could lift BTC toward $120,000–$140,000 while altcoins lag, and finally a shift back into ETH and smaller tokens for a potential “blowoff” rally marking the cycle’s peak.

Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe called Saturday’s push to $4,200 a “wild move” and warned that buying at such elevated levels carried greater risk. While he sees ETH setting up for a breakout toward all-time highs, he argued that allocating capital to projects within the ETH ecosystem might deliver better percentage returns if momentum continues. He also said earlier that continued ETH strength could set the stage for substantial gains in altcoins, potentially rewarding portfolios positioned for a broader market rotation.

Market intelligence platform Santiment noted that ETH’s climb above $4,000 on Aug. 8 was the first since Dec. 16, 2024, and came with a sharp increase in bullish language from retail traders. Mentions of terms like “buying” and “bullish” roughly doubled compared with “selling” and “bearish.” The firm cautioned that overconfidence can sometimes lead to short-lived pauses even during strong uptrends.

Technical Analysis Highlights

  • According to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model, between Aug. 8 at 07:00 UTC and Aug. 9 at 06:00 UTC, ETH rose from $3,914.59 to $4,160.29, a 6% gain, trading between $3,885.03 and $4,194.53.
  • The first breakout occurred at 13:00 UTC on Aug. 8, pushing prices above $4,000 on 646,459 ETH in volume, nearly triple the 24-hour average of 218,847 ETH.
  • A second surge at 05:00 UTC on Aug. 9 lifted prices to the session peak of $4,194.53 on 714,461 ETH in volume, again more than triple the daily average.
  • In the final hour (Aug. 9, 05:19–06:18 UTC), ETH moved from $4,157.33 to $4,194.53 before retreating to $4,158.50, with $42.52 in intraday swings.
  • Buying briefly pushed prices above $4,190 before profit-taking set in, establishing support between $4,155 and $4,160, suggesting consolidation as larger players locked in gains near the psychological $4,200 level.

Ethena’s synthetic dollar stablecoin, USDe, has seen impressive market growth in recent weeks. Its market cap now stands at $9.3 billion.

Over the past month alone, it increased by 75%, with a weekly jump of 24%.

USDe Growth Signals Strong Investor Appetite

Since July 18, yield-bearing stablecoin USDe has recorded the largest rise in supply among all major competitors, adding approximately $2.73 billion, according to data from Artemis.

This growth surpasses even Tether (USDT), which saw a $2.47 billion rise, and First Digital’s USDS, which increased by around $1 billion. Other stablecoins like USD Falcon and PayPal’s PYUSD also saw moderate gains, while USDC recorded the largest decline in supply, dropping by nearly $800 million.

This rise aligns with renewed attention on Ethena following the July 21 launch of Stablecoin X, a long-term treasury arm designed to allocate capital across the ecosystem. When the move was announced, Stablecoin X pledged to purchase $260 million worth of ENA, which is approximately 8% of the supply.

Alongside this strategic development, the high annualized yield of 11% offered by staked USDe (sUSDe) has significantly increased minting activity. Importantly, Ethena Foundation holds the authority to block any ENA sales made by Stablecoin X, compelling the entity to channel the purchased tokens into reinvestments or infrastructure upgrades.

According to Ethena founder Guy Young’s latest tweet, USDe supply over the past 20 days has outpaced those seen across all BTC ETFs and BlackRock’s ETHA ETF.

Impact on ENA

This surge in stablecoin demand appears to have positively influenced the performance of ENA, Ethena’s native token.

After briefly dipping to $0.51 over the weekend, ENA climbed back to around $0.62. The token has surged over 140% in the past month. Its market cap hit $8.4 billion at the end of July before reaching a new all-time high of over $9.4 billion by August 4. At the same time, ENA is starting to show signs of a recovery, hinting at renewed market interest and momentum.

The crypto market enters August 2025 with mixed interpretations about whether an altcoin season is taking shape.

While Bitcoin remains near its recent highs, some traders are shifting attention toward projects like Tron, Sui, and Pi Coin. Each shows contrasting price action and sentiment, making them part of the debate over the durability of the current altseason trend.

Tron: Steady Growth With Utility

Tron (TRX) has maintained steady traction in recent weeks. The Tron price is around $0.32, according to CoinMarketCap, with a market cap of about $31 billion and daily trading volume of nearly $1.54 billion, up by 44% within the past 24 hours.

July trading showed a stable range between $0.28 and $0.33. This consolidation suggests steady demand despite market volatility. Analysts cite Tron’s DeFi footprint and lower supply compared to competitors as reasons why it continues to attract flows during periods when altcoin season activity rises.

Whale accumulation and consistent activity across Tron’s DeFi applications add to the case for continued relevance. Some research outlets have pointed to its ability to maintain liquidity and support ecosystem projects, which has allowed TRX to stay in the conversation despite stronger competition from the Ethereum and Solana ecosystems.

Sui: Growth Meets Recent Pullback

The Sui price currently sits near $3.58, supported by a market cap of about $12.3 billion and daily trading volume exceeding $2.4 billion. Data shows a modest pullback of about 5% over the past 24 hours, after a month of strong inflows.

Sui’s object‑based design and parallel execution continue to set it apart among Layer‑1 protocols. On‑chain adoption in DeFi and GameFi has supported TVL growth, though recent price softness has tempered short‑term sentiment. LunarCrush metrics earlier in July showed strong social engagement, reinforcing that traders continue to monitor SUI closely despite the decline.

Analysts suggest late‑2025 could prove important if upcoming integrations and ecosystem expansions deliver new user activity. For now, Sui represents an asset with utility and traction but is facing pressure from broader market sentiment.

Pi Coin: Supply Concerns Pressure Sentiment

The Pi Coin price is trading around $0.4, with recent reports pointing to downward pressure following a July supply unlock.

Pi’s daily volumes remain low compared to Tron and Sui, indicating weaker liquidity. Analysts note that a 17% drop in July coincided with a token unlock event of about 160 million PI, raising concerns about further dilution.

Investor sentiment remains cautious. Without clear use cases or robust DeFi integration, Pi’s price action suggests it is more dependent on community participation and speculative cycles than underlying protocol adoption.

Altcoin Season or Market Pause?

The Altcoin Season Index remains 36, meaning that Bitcoin continues to outperform most altcoins. Yet the steady performance of Tron, the active though volatile market for Sui, and the ongoing debate over Pi Coin show that interest in mid‑cap assets persists.

Some traders argue that altseason requires a broader rotation into tokens like these. Others believe current conditions represent selective trading rather than a full cycle.

Whether this develops into a sustained altcoin season remains uncertain. Tron offers steady liquidity and usage, Sui continues to build out infrastructure despite recent declines, and Pi Coin reflects the risks of supply shocks.

Together, these tokens capture the range of outcomes possible in an altseason: steady performers, growing platforms, and speculative risks. For traders, they illustrate how the cycle can extend beyond Bitcoin—even if the breadth of participation remains limited.

  • Memecoin price rose 29% in 24 hours to hit highs above $0.0023.
  • Daily volume spiked 600% as MEME jumped amid a technical breakout.
  • Altcoins are bullish and an anlyst says MEME price could surge 690%.

Memecoin (MEME), a meme token of the Memeland platform, has surged by 29% in the past 24 hours.

This sudden price surge, which has come amid a notable spike in trading volume, has MEME trading at levels that might see bulls take further control.

While profit taking remains a potential setback, bullish momentum is largely in place as the broader cryptocurrency market gets a boost from institutional demand and regulatory support.

Memecoin’s surge is also not isolated in the meme token ecosystem.

Pepecoin, DOGS and Pump.fun are among those seeing a significant upside amid a backdrop of bullish projects for altcoins.

Dogecoin, Shiba Inu and TRUMP have also signaled resilience.

Volume spikes as MEME token surges 29%?

MEME’s price jump follows a technical breakout and overall flip in memecoins.

With a 29% spike in 24 hours, this token’s value is back at $0.0023 levels seen in May.

The gains also mean the price has increased 75% from lows of $0.0012 seen in June.

Daily volume has also jumped 600% to over $170 million, notable activity as the token benefits from speculative buying on launchpad sentiment.

In recent months, tokens such as PUMP and RAY have exploded on launchpad anticipation and adoption.

Memecoin price rose amid a technical breakout

However, the MEME price remains well over 95% down since reaching its all-time highs of $0.081 in November 2023.

What’s next for Memecoin price?

Crypto analysts point to Memecoin’s uptick amid a breakout from a large falling wedge pattern.

In the market, a falling wedge breakout is a technical formation that usually suggests a reversal from a downtrend.

The token is showing a regular bull divergence, to signal bullish strength.

According to analyst Javon Marks, MEME could be poised for a significant upward movement.

The forecast aligns with the analyst’s earlier predictions from July 12, 2025, when Marks identified a falling wedge breakout.

“MEME (Memecoin) is currently showing MAJOR STRENGTH and with prices still being broken out of a large Falling Wedge as well as coming off of a huge Regular Bull Divergence, there can be significantly more bullish action coming!,” noted crypto analyst Javon Marks.

According to the analyst, MEME prices are likely to skyrocket if bulls take control.

The memecoin’s price could target $0.018, a level that would represent a staggering 690% upside.

Conversely, a failure to maintain momentum might see prices retreat, testing lower support levels. Likely, these will be at $0.0016 and $0.0014.

PENGU has climbed 151% in July, a rally driven by accumulation from public figures and whales, community momentum, viral marketing, and expanding liquidity.

The token is currently trading at $0.036955, with a 1.6% daily correction as of press time.

Nicolai Søndergaard, a research analyst at Nansen, stated that public figures have accumulated over the past 90 days and now hold a combined 315 million PENGU, while whale balances have increased by about 1% to 2.54 billion PENGU. 

Yet, he noted that smart money has been taking profits, although this cohort still holds 109 million PENGU. 

Because the pace of accumulation exceeded the distribution, selling pressure did not derail the rally. 

Søndergaard added that a broader pickup in altcoin interest and memecoin activity likely provided a tailwind, with PENGU benefiting from its existing mindshare through physical products and memes.

Community, liquidity, and a cultural niche

Shawn Young, chief analyst at MEXC Research, framed the move in terms of market structure and culture. 

He argued that community momentum, viral marketing, and a rising appetite for meme assets in bullish phases supported the advance. 

Young added that PENGU taps into a cultural niche that resonates with Gen Z and crypto-native users, utilizing humor and digital identity as core value propositions. 

From a trading perspective, greater on-chain activity and deeper liquidity on DEXs and centralized venues have lowered frictions for retail entry and speculation, thereby amplifying flows. 

He said PENGU’s relatively low market cap and high volatility continue to attract short‑term traders chasing outsized returns, further reinforcing momentum.

Convering theses

Both analysts point to people and pipes, such as influential holders and community figures accumulating supply, and liquidity/infrastructure that make it easy for retail and speculators to participate. 

They also agree that narrative and mindshare matter. Søndergaardr highlighted the “physical product and memes” areas that PENGU taps, while Young noted the “cultural niche and digital identity.”

The analysts pointed out that these intangibles can become hard catalysts when they mobilize capital and attention.

What to watch

Young cautioned that the sustainability of meme‑driven tokens remains untested. Momentum can reverse quickly if narratives fade, liquidity thins, or large holders rotate out.

Søndergaard’s data likewise show that profit‑taking is active, even if it has been offset so far by accumulation.

Going forward, the trajectory of PENGU will likely hinge on whether whale and public‑figure accumulation persists, liquidity continues to expand across venues, and the project sustains its cultural relevance.
