Mercado Bitcoin is set to tokenize over $200 million in real-world assets on the XRP Ledger, marking a significant step in expanding regulated digital asset access across South America and
TL;DR Ripple’s cross-border token had a stellar Q4 24 and early Q1 25 but stalled in the following months, and its consolidation phase has not ended yet. However, analysts are adamant that the asset can unlock major gains, as long as it reclaims a key resistance level. The key resistance level for $XRP is $2.38. Breaking above it could trigger a major move! pic.twitter.com/mwpqKBxJKV — Ali (@ali_charts) July 4, 2025 Basing his analysis on XRP’s UTXO, Ali Martinez determined that this pivotal level is situated at $2.38, where the fourth-largest cryptocurrency faced several rejections in the past few months. However, a conclusive breakout above it could send the token flying, he added. Shortly after, the analyst with almost 140,000 followers on X indicated that XRP can surge to $2.6 as long as it reclaims $2.33. BitGuru also outlined the significance of the same two major resistance lines, saying the asset was rejected at the lower one after it confirmed an “inverse head and shoulders and triple bottom pattern.” With XRP now testing the $2.23 support, the doors open for a surge back to $2.33 as long as it can remain above it, BitGuru added. Elite Crypto’s analysis is similar to that of Martinez, as they noted that XRP is “showing a strong bullish setup.” They added that “the price is consistently respecting the horizontal support and now approaching the downtrend resistance.” The analyst predicted that a breakout from this obstacle could result in a massive price surge for Ripple’s token, perhaps to and above the $3.4 all-time high. $XRP is showing a strong bullish setup as the price is consistently respecting the horizontal support and now approaching the downtrend resistance. A breakout from this zone could lead to a sharp upward move toward the $3.50 range which has acted as a previous resistance level.… pic.twitter.com/TRXv9tYe3n — Elite Crypto (@TheEliteCrypto) July 5, 2025 The post XRP Price Builds Bullish Momentum: Watch This Resistance Level Closely appeared first on CryptoPotato .
A Coinbase director has raised suspicions that the recent movement of $8 billion in long-dormant Bitcoin may be the result of a hack. Conor Grogan, a Coinbase director, has speculated that the $8 billion in Bitcoin ( BTC) that recently “woke up” could have been hacked. To back this claim, Grogan pointed to a single
A respected voice within the XRP community has argued that long-term XRP holders are entitled to prosperity, given their steadfast support and the consistent accuracy of their positions on critical industry issues. XRP Supporters Have Maintained Consistency Through Challenges Edoardo Farina, the founder of Alpha Lions Academy and Head of Social Adoption at XRPHealthcare, recently stated that XRP proponents have regularly demonstrated insight and resilience, even during periods of skepticism and market underperformance. His remarks follow several key developments that have placed Ripple and XRP back into broader market discussions. Farina pointed to the protracted legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which began in late 2020. Despite the uncertainty and XRP’s extended stagnation around the $0.50 mark during that time, supporters of the token continued to defend its legitimacy and utility. $XRP holders have been proven right time and time again. We had the courage to speak the truth, even when the facts pointed the other way. The SEC lawsuit and XRP stuck at $0.50 felt like an eternity. But we were on the right side of history. We deserve prosperity! — EDO FARINA 🅧 XRP (@edward_farina) July 2, 2025 Recognition for the Community’s Track Record Farina argued that XRP holders have repeatedly advocated for positions that were initially doubted but ultimately proven valid. He claimed that this consistency, particularly in the face of external criticism, justifies recognition and reward. “We deserve prosperity,” he stated, underscoring his belief that XRP supporters have remained on the right side of industry developments. Among the latest validations for the XRP community was Ripple’s recent confirmation of its pursuit of a U.S. banking license. Additionally, the company, via its subsidiary Standard Custody, has applied for a Federal Reserve master account, which would allow it to hold reserves for its stablecoin, RLUSD. These developments support earlier claims by some XRP commentators that Ripple intended to operate more like a traditional financial institution to challenge the global payments infrastructure. At the time, such views were dismissed by many as speculative. However, Ripple’s current direction aligns with those prior assertions. We are on X, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) June 15, 2025 Legal and Market Milestones Further Strengthen Community Confidence XRP advocates also previously contended that the token should not be classified as a security. This position was upheld in July 2023, when U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres ruled in Ripple’s favour regarding the classification of XRP in secondary market sales. That ruling was a major milestone, especially given the initial skepticism surrounding the case’s potential outcome. Furthermore, XRP’s price remained relatively flat between $0.50 and $0.60 for years, even as other digital assets experienced significant growth. Despite this, many within the community remained confident in its long-term potential. Their outlook proved accurate when XRP surpassed $2 in late 2024 after a long-awaited breakout. Future Expectations Remain Bold but Consistent Today, the XRP community continues to project ambitious goals for the token and its underlying technology. These include expectations that XRP will handle a portion of SWIFT’s daily transaction volume and that the XRP Ledger (XRPL) will play a central role in asset tokenization. Some even predict that XRP will eventually reach double-digit valuations. While these forecasts remain highly speculative, they are consistent with the community’s long-standing belief in the token’s transformative potential. If past trends are any indication, XRP holders will likely continue to defend their outlooks until further developments either validate or challenge them.

June was a lackluster month for crypto market gains amid global uncertainty looming over international tariff policy and the future direction of US central bank rates. US Stocks Outpaced Ethereum In June For the 30 day window ending Friday, Jun. 27, the S&P 500 Index gained +4.25%. The push overcame serious resistance from the tariff nail biters and took the broad US stock benchmark to a historic record close Friday. But after running from $76,200 on 4/8 to $111,600 on 5/22, a +46% gain in a little over a month, Bitcoin’s price took some time to cool down in June. The cryptocurrency charted minor gains, which could be seen as a positive in the face of massive international turmoils and geopolitical shocks. Meanwhile, Ethereum corrected by 24% before bouncing off the Jun. 22 support to finalize a 2% loss for the 30 days ending Friday, Jun. 30th. So does ETH have a problem that Bitcoin doesn’t? Not really. Ethereum is a smaller currency by market cap, about 14% of Bitcoin’s size. Traders still perceive it as a more speculative bet. So it tends to move in the same direction as BTC — by larger percentages. That means on the way down, losses are frequently greater. But on the way up, gains are often greater too. For example, during the crypto market’s rally from early April through early June, Bitcoin made a +46% gain. But during the same rally, Ethereum gained +100%, rising from the $1,400 handle to the $2,800 level. Bitcoin and Ethereum Rainbow Charts Double rainbow all the way across the sky? Bitcoin is by and large the biggest leading indicator for the rest of the crypto market’s prices, including Ethereum. It appears to have a long ways to go before topping out this year or next. Based on popular and authoritative analysts’ price targets for Bitcoin in 2025, it’s pacing to enter July and Q3 at 50% to 66% of its peak price before this cycle is over. That means it could double or gain by half again its June price levels before the year is over. Standard Chartered, Bernstein, Galaxy Digital, and Peter Brandt all expect $150,000 to $200,000 for BTC sometime in the next six months. Bitcoin’s long-term price trend rainbow chart confirms these projections. Meanwhile, Ethereum’s own long-term trend chart is shaping up to signal a three-peat of a multi-year trend. If it happens the way it did the last two major market cycles, this Ether prices could be primed to rise by more than Bitcoin’s during the next big monthly rally. Source: X If it turns out to be Bitcoin’s final push for its peak on this cycle as market watchers expect, Ethereum’s gains could signal the start of this cycle’s alt season in meme coins and Layer 2 app tokens. In addition to the market technical setup for ETH prices in Q3, here are four further bullish signals supporting the leading smart contract platform’s price gains in July. 1. Who Will Win Ethereum L2 Fee Wars? Ethereum’s price has taken time to absorb the shock of the Dencun upgrade on Mar. 13, 2024. The upgrade lowers rates for Layer 2 apps to lock in tranches of transaction updates with the base layer chain. In the 15 months since, developers have deployed a number of new apps with currencies that offer Ethereum services for lower fees. The base chain’s fee revenue dropped from $30 million annually to $500,000 by Q1 of this year. That saves users money, but a lot of Ethereum stakers who had their money parked in staking contracts to earn that fee revenue felt inclined to move it somewhere that it could still earn returns on their savings. This is a massive factor in Ethereum’s sluggish price growth compared to Bitcoin’s over the past year. But it’s not that the latter is falling behind its competitors like Solana and Ripple. When factoring in the growth of the post-Dencun L2 coins on Ethereum— like Mantle (MNT), POL (POL), Arbitrum (ARB), Optimism (OP), Movement (MOVE), and Starknet (STRK)— the money mostly didn’t leave Ethereum and go to its competitors. It went to another layer, powered by and supporting the base chain. For that reason, Ethereum may be undervalued by a large number of the cryptocurrency market’s headline readers that don’t understand what happened. Ethereum Identity Crisis? Some have referred in the mean time to this awkward stage in Ethereum’s growth as an identity crisis. It’s an open platform and anyone can build on it in any way that the code can handle. The question for Vitalik Buterin and crypto market investors who show up to value early is: Will one of the slew of Ethereum scale and fee apps, some new app we haven’t heard of yet, or an upgrade be what implements the best ultra long term, future proof, platform-wide standardizations that define the network’s global advantages? Find the answer to that question and you’re doing some real work. 2. SharpLink $30M ETH Buy In another positive development, the corporate treasury race that started for Bitcoin supplies continues to rock the Ethereum markets. SharpLink Gaming, bought another $30 million worth of ETH just before the Ether price chart threw a small cup and handle pattern. But why does this matter? Well, let’s see what happened to STrategy. Led by founder and executive chairman Michael Saylor, Tyson’s Corner, Virginia-based Strategy Inc. and Bitcoin have both benefited from the company’s pivot in 2020 to simply pile up as much BTC as it can hold on to forever. As a result of the cryptocurrency’s increasing popularity with investors since then, MSTR stock rallied 566% in under 11 months from $63 per share on Jan. 5, 2024 to a price peak of $420 on Nov. 22, 2024. Over that same time, the S&P 500 Index rallied 27% from the 4697 level to 5969. Every $100 spent on Strategy stock on Jan. 5 last year could be sold for $666 dollars on Nov. 22, paying back buyers $566 for saving their $100 with MSTR shares for a term of 11 months. That’s like a downpayment on a new car lease with a high credit score. Meanwhile, $100 spent on an S&P 500 ETF would have returned buyers $27. That’s more like a cheap dinner out for two. All for the same hundred bucks and the same 11 months. That suggests regulated Wall Street investors wanted on to the Bitcoin bandwagon and found a way in Strategy stocks. Seeing the bullishness of corporate finance, Internet crypto markets were now racing Strategy to accumulate a scarce supply of BTC tokens. Now, SharpLink is doing it again with ETH. The company’s stocks spiked over 8 days in late May from $3.76 per share to just under $80 a share as Wall Street rewarded the former gaming company for pivoting to accumulating a regulated corporate Ether treasury. 3. $39M ETH Whale Bite Meanwhile, an Ethereum whale took a $39 million chomp out of the crypto dip on 6/22. Ethereum’s forward outlook was too good for this whale not to bite at that 24% off discount tag. Every token is a vote with a daily trading value that fluctuates on a global open market of crypto exchanges. Participants “vote” by locking, unlocking, moving, and swapping currencies, as often as they like, any time they like. When crypto investors take Ether tokens off a crypto exchange, the remaining supply of ETH tends to attract higher prices at the point of sale. But when they stake ETH for yield, it creates even more support. 4. Bit Digital Drops $34M BTC for ETH Not to be outdone by SharpLink, publicly traded, New York-based blockchain company Bit Digital, announced on 6/25 it is giving up $34 million worth of BTC tokens to move the proceeds into Ether and develop staking strategies. They might profit well from determining in advance of the overall market which of the Ethereum scale and fee coins will deliver the most yield and gains together over timespans relevant to their balance sheet and calendar.

Billionaire venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya believes that a long-term decline of the US dollar is not an existential concern for America. In a new episode of the All-In podcast, host Jason Calacanis highlights that the US dollar index (DXY) witnessed its worst first-half performance in over 50 years after losing nearly 11% of its value against other major currencies in the first six months of 2025. While Calacanis describes the slump as “shocking,” Palihapitiya argues that the dollar has been in decline for decades, and it’s not a major concern because the gains from US assets have consistently outweighed the currency’s depreciation. “This has been a one-way trade for a very long time, and it’s probably important to understand why that is. And I think it generally has to do with the fact that the United States finances a lot of growth, and that has been the right decision. Unless you see a complete collapse in the currency, I suspect that this decay continues to happen. So the question is, is it a bad thing? And the answer is it depends. Because if asset prices increase faster than the dollar devalues, you’re still ahead… If you look at asset prices in the United States relative to asset prices any place else in the world, it is the flight to quality, which is to say it is the thing that everybody wants to own. And you see that in the equity markets, you see it in real estate, you see it in hard assets… The reality is that a lot of people still want to own these assets more than they want to own other assets and those assets are dollar-denominated.” Palihipatiya also highlights that there will be a constant demand for dollar-denominated assets as long as “there’s American ingenuity and American supremacy,” which would meaningfully offset the downside of holding USD.
