🚀 ETH Rockets Higher!

Over the past night, ETH surged again — now up 6.7% in 24h, briefly touching $4,200.

🐳🔪 Meanwhile, one whale got wrecked, losing $15.85M on a liquidated ETH short.

BTC, however, is still struggling to break the $117K resistance. 🤷

📊 Ethereum Grabs 40% of Exchange Trading Volume!

According to CryptoQuant, Ethereum now accounts for a massive 40% of total trading volume across exchanges — a sign of growing market focus on ETH amid its recent price surge. 🚀

With momentum building, ETH’s dominance in trading activity is approaching levels not seen in months, hinting at strong trader interest and potential for further volatility. 🎢

🔼 BTC Breaks $122K

Bitcoin just smashed past $122K, reminding everyone who’s boss in the market 😎.

With only about $1K left to its all-time high, BTC looks set to challenge and possibly break records again. 🚀

🐰 Arthur Hayes Buys Back Into ETH

On Aug 2, Arthur Hayes sold ETH at ~$3,507 — but now he’s back, spending $10.5M to buy at $4,200.

ETH is currently at $4,300, breaking its March 2024 high. Looks like buying back made sense… though selling earlier? Not so much 😅

Vitalik Buterin Is a Dollar Billionaire Again! 🙀

With Ethereum’s market cap hitting $517B — surpassing Netflix and just below Mastercard — and ETH holding around $4,300, Vitalik’s 240K ETH stash puts him back in the $1B club.

Congrats… sort of 😁

CryptoQuant: The weakest altcoin reaction of this cycle!

Despite BTC’s rise, large caps and especially mid/small caps are showing minimal gains — far from a real altseason.🧐

The last true altcoin surge was in early 2024, when many outperformed BTC briefly. Another wave came in late 2024–early 2025, but BTC still dominated. 📈

Now, altcoins are at their weakest point in the cycle — suggesting the altseason hasn’t even begun yet. 🤔

Patience might pay off. ⏳

An early Ethereum ICO participant just moved 2,300 ETH ($9.9M) to Kraken, leaving 1,623 ETH in their wallet. 💵

Back in 2015, they bought 20,000 ETH for just $6,200 — now worth around $86M. 🙀

From a $6K bet to a crypto fortune… respect? 🫡

📅 5 years since MicroStrategy’s first Bitcoin buy!

Now rebranded as Strategy, the company holds 3% of all BTC and its stock is up 2600%. 🔥

On Aug 11, 2020, Michael Saylor’s firm bought 21,454 BTC for $250M at ~$12K per coin. Back then, MSTR traded at $14 — today BTC is >$122K and MSTR is ~$400. 🚀

Now holding 628,791 BTC (avg. price $73,277), Strategy invested $46B and boasts over $30B in unrealized profit. Their approach inspired other traditional firms to pour billions into BTC in 2025. 💰

Through bonds and now preferred shares, Strategy offers investors indirect BTC exposure — with “Bitcoin per share” as a key selling point.

💸 Strategy added another 155 BTC to its treasury for $18M, according to its latest SEC filing.

Saylor keeps scraping the barrel — every sat counts! 🐳

SharpLink Gaming raised another $400M to buy Ethereum — $200M already deployed, $200M on the way. They now hold ~598,800 ETH ($2.5B). 💰

Meanwhile, BitMine Immersion Tech (NYSE: BMNR) exploded its ETH stash from 833K to 1.15M ETH in under 2 months — now worth $4.96B, aiming for 5% of all ETH in circulation. 🧐

Backed by Pantera, ARK, Galaxy, Founders Fund, DCG & Kraken, with Tom Lee as chairman and Peter Thiel as top shareholder — they plan to stake and dive deep into DeFi. 🐳

ETH options open interest has surged to $13.75B — the highest level since the start of 2025! 📈

While still slightly below the March 2024 all-time high of $14.6B, the jump signals renewed trader activity and growing expectations for major ETH price moves ahead. 🚀

🚀 Bezos Takes Blue Origin to the Crypto Frontier

Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin now sells New Shepard suborbital flight tickets for BTC, ETH, SOL, USDT, and USDC via Shift4 Payments (Coinbase & MetaMask supported).

Looks like Justin Sun whispered in Bezos’ ear during last week’s orbital trip… but TRX still didn’t make the cut. 🤷

📊 Bitcoin Profit-Taking Cools Off ❄️

BTC’s realized P&L ratio remains near average — unlike past market peaks when it spiked in overheated conditions.

This suggests most sellers have already cashed out, reducing the likelihood of a sharp reversal compared to previous highs. 💪🚀

🔥 Trump’s Crypto Adviser to Buy $762M in Bitcoin!

David Bailey, CEO of Nakamoto Inc. and crypto adviser to US President Donald Trump, will acquire ~6,400 BTC ($762M) this week using a VWAP strategy to avoid market shocks. 📊

Bailey aims to make Nakamoto one of the world’s top Bitcoin holders and has hinted at raising $100M–$200M for a pro-Bitcoin political PAC. 🏦

🚀 15 Years of Bitcoin HODL!

Exactly 15 years ago, early Bitcoin visionaries realized they could become wealthy by stacking just 100 BTC. Back then, it cost only $6 — today, it’s worth nearly $12 million. 🙀

To achieve this, all they had to do was… absolutely nothing for 15 years. Sounds easy, but every true crypto veteran knows how hard real HODLing is. 💪

Moral: Time in the market beats timing the market. HODL!

📊 ETH Short Positions Explode

CryptoQuant reports that ETH/USD short positions on Binance have surged +500% since November 2024. 📈

🔎 Analysts say conditions for a short squeeze are now “extremely favorable” — a setup that could trigger a parabolic ETH rally if bears get forced to cover.🚀

Monero tumbles over 10% amid 51% attack fears! 🙀

Earlier today, the Qubic mining pool — led by Sergey Ivancheglo — briefly controlled more than 52% of Monero’s hashrate (~ 3.0 GH/s), sparking alarm over a potential 51% takeover that could enable chain rewrites, double-spends, or transaction censorship. 😳

🕵️‍♂️ Industry experts, including SlowMist’s founder and Ledger’s CTO, warned that the attack appears to have succeeded; however, Qubic claims this was a transparent technical demonstration, not a malicious exploit

📉 Monero dropped 10% as the community mobilized defenses—urging miners to shift toward decentralized pools like P2Pool to reduce centralization risk.

Bitcoin sellers outpace buyers by a staggering $350 million in market orders—marking a 3.5-year record!

Historically, such extreme sell-side dominance has often preceded major corrections or the onset of broader downtrends. 📉🤔
