In crypto PR, the story doesn’t end when it hits the wire. That’s when it starts to move. For Web3 founders looking to break through the noise, a well-placed article isn’t just a credibility stamp—it’s a launchpad. But most agencies stop short at the first publication. Outset PR doesn’t. It builds visibility by engineering what comes next: syndication. What Syndication Means in Crypto PR A story published on Cointelegraph can land on CoinMarketCap the next day. From there, it might hit Binance Square, Yahoo Finance, or dozens of other aggregators, community feeds, and news networks. No extra spend. No second pitch. Just engineered momentum. This ripple effect is what Outset calls a “tail”—a republication that echoes the original article across new surfaces. Some tails reprint the piece in full. Others offer a snippet, a headline, or even a rewrite that spins the original into fresh editorial. Each variant plays a role in how the story scales. Types of Syndicated Coverage (Tails) Tail Type Description Full-copy republications Complete article reprints on other outlets; deliver maximum SEO impact. Lead-and-link snippets Show an intro or lead paragraph with a link to the original; drive direct traffic. Headline-only pickups Display only the title and a link; dominate aggregator feeds, great for visibility. Rewrites New articles inspired by the original; extend narrative and attract fresh audiences. Together, they multiply reach, stretch exposure across new audiences, and drive far more impact than the original story ever could alone. Inside the Metrics: How Outset PR Tracks the Spread Tracking this isn’t easy. There’s no out-of-the-box software that reliably detects tails, especially in the fragmented, multilingual crypto media landscape. So Outset built its own system. Their analytics team manually monitors aggregators, community portals, Google index updates, and low-profile crypto blogs to classify republications by type, traffic potential, and syndication value. “We don’t treat media hits as finish lines,” says Maximilian Fondé, who leads analytics at Outset PR. “We treat them as data points—signals that show us how the story travels, who picks it up, and where it converts.” Not all republications are equal. Some surface on high-authority destinations like CoinGecko or Binance Square—places that can nudge a token into retail consciousness. Others appear on tier-two wires or SEO-optimized crypto hubs. A long tail of low-tier pickups rounds out the spread, sometimes helping with search visibility, sometimes not. Outset scores each one and uses the data to guide future placements. This methodology is measurable. During a campaign for StealthEX, a single article placement triggered 92 republications across high-impact surfaces, reaching an estimated 3 billion views. In another case, an article placed for ChangeNOW around the OFFICIAL TRUMP meme coin launch was rewritten by a leading Turkish outlet, becoming the editorial lead in a politically charged news cycle just days before the 2025 inauguration. The original quote remained intact. The visibility surged. The Tail Map: Predicting What Happens After Publication What makes this approach work is Outset’s “tail map”—an internal tool that plots which media outlets generate the most syndication, and where that syndication flows next. The team doesn’t guess where to pitch. It checks the map. If a client wants exposure on CoinMarketCap , the answer isn’t “Let’s try.” It’s “Here’s how.” This is where PR merges with performance. Republication tracking turns visibility into a metric, not a mystery. It shows how one article can outperform five, simply by triggering the right chain reaction. It reveals that $200 spent on syndication-friendly media can go further than $2,000 burned on a one-off vanity hit that no aggregator pulls from. Final Word Most stories fade within a day. Syndication keeps them alive. For founders in the Web3 space where attention windows are narrow and credibility is hard-won this matters. The approach taken by Outset PR offers what crypto-native projects need most: exposure that scales, spending that performs, and results that show up not just in headlines, but in traction.

RWAs are seeing rapid growth as Blocksquare reported $200 million in tokenized real estate assets. Real-world assets are becoming a significant force in real estate. On Friday, July 11, Blocksquare, an infrastructure provider for real estate tokenization, announced it had surpassed $200 million in tokenized assets on chain. The milestone comes as tokenized RWAs have seen an 800% increase in total value locked in 2025. Across all applications, RWAs TVL is now higher than $65 billion. Blocksquare’s own tokenized assets in real estate are now used across 29 countries and 66 properties. “This $200M milestone is more than a number — it reflects a shift from experimentation to real-world adoption,” said Denis Petrovcic, Co-Founder and CEO of Blocksquare. “We’re proud to power a global ecosystem where local marketplace operators can tokenize real estate in a compliant, scalable, and investor-friendly way.” You might also like: Institutional RWA tokenization in 2025: Building the new backbone of finance Blocksquare specifically specializes in tokenizing real estate property directly. This means that individuals can become fractional owners of specific properties, giving investors more flexibility compared to traditional real estate funds. The company offers these assets through its legal entity in Luxembourg, which it launched in February . This entity uses an EU-compliant real estate tokenization framework, aligned with relevant MiCA rules.

In April, the company partnered with Vera Capital , with a stated goal to tokenize $1 billion worth of U.S. real estate. Vera Group currently manages over $100 million in real estate assets through a traditional integrated model. Tokenized real estate offers several advantages compared to traditional real estate investments. For one, through fractional ownership, it lowers the barrier to entry for real estate investing, potentially opening up the market to a new class of investors.

The crypto market gained steam on Friday, July 11, with Bitcoin and most altcoins jumping by over 5%. Bitcoin ( BTC ) surged to nearly $120,000, while the crypto Fear and Greed Index moved to the greed zone of 65. The total market capitalization of all coins jumped to over $3.6 trillion. Why crypto is up today Crypto prices rallied ahead of the upcoming crypto week , during which politicians in Washington will consider three major bills. One of them is GENIUS, which will regulate stablecoins and has already passed in the Senate. Lawmakers will also consider the CLARITY Act, which separates the roles between the SEC and the CFTC. Additionally, regulators will review a bill to ban Central Bank Digital Currencies in the U.S. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are also moving higher due to hopes that the Federal Reserve will begin cutting interest rates in September and continue through 2026. Some Fed officials, like Christopher Waller and Michele Bowman, have called for a rate cut as soon as this month.

Trump, who has called for a 300 basis point cut, has hinted that he will only nominate an official who will cut rates. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies historically perform well in a low-interest-rate environment. Further, crypto is rising due to increasing Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF inflows, which signal strong demand from American investors. Bitcoin ETFs have added over $51 billion in inflows since inception, while Ethereum funds crossed the $5 billion milestone. In a note to crypto.news, Premyslaw Kral, the CEO of Zondacrypto, said: “We’re observing increased interest from institutional players, largely in the form of ETFs, which have significantly changed the reality of the crypto industry, alongside simple capital inflows, as observed now on the BTC market.” There are also hopes that the Chinese government will legalize cryptocurrencies. A top regulator told a conference that the government was studying digital coins. Unbanning cryptocurrencies would likely lead to increased demand from Chinese individuals and retail investors. Best altcoins to buy in this crypto bull run Analysts, including Arthur Hayes believe that the altoin season is around the corner. Such a move would benefit many altcoins, especially meme coins. Some of the best meme coins to consider are the popular names like Pepe ( PEPE ), Dogwifhat ( WIF ), and Fartcoin ( FARTCOIN ). Top utility cryptocurrencies, especially those with high ETF approval hopes like Ripple ( XRP ) and Solana ( SOL ), will be the other top beneficiaries of this bull run. Other top altcoins to buy are Chainlink, Quant, and Hedera Hashgraph. You might also like: Here’s why Pi Network price is primed for a short squeeze
The post NBA Legend Scottie Pippen Says “SEND EVERYTHING HIGHER” as Bitcoin Hits New Highs appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Bitcoin has hit a new all-time high, jumping 8% this week. The rally is lifting the whole crypto market, and bold predictions are flooding in. NBA legend Scottie Pippen also jumped in to comment on Bitcoin’s new all-time high. He shared a bold message to his followers on X, saying, “SEND EVERYTHING HIGHER.” He didn’t mention just Bitcoin, but also included major altcoins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, XRP, Cardano, and Solana. His overly bullish message has the crypto crowd buzzing, who are calling for a continued market rise. SEND EVERYTHING HIGHER $BTC $ETH $SOL $XRP $BALL @Game5Ball $ADA $LINK $DOGE $SHIB — Scottie Pippen (@ScottiePippen) July 11, 2025 The broader market is also riding the wave with gains across the board. Traders are watching closely for a move above $120,000. Altcoins Riding the Wave Bitcoin’s breakout has reignited the crypto market, acting as a liquidity trigger and pushing capital into altcoins. Ethereum is nearing $3,000 with strong ETF inflows, Solana has reclaimed $160 and is eyeing $200, while tokens like SHIB, AVAX, and HYPE also posted impressive gains. Analysts see this as a broader market shift, with BTC leading the charge and altcoins following fast. Investors further expect new all-time highs in the second half of the year, fueled by rising corporate Bitcoin buying and progress on U.S. crypto legislation. Bitcoin spot ETFs also saw a massive $1.18 billion net inflow on Thursday, the second largest in history. Ethereum spot ETFs saw $383 million in net inflows. Bullish Forecasts from Crypto Experts Former Binance CEO also shared a simple yet powerful message. He asked his followers not to panic if they missed buying Bitcoin when it was cheaper, as he notes that there will be more chances. While governments can keep printing money, Bitcoin has a fixed supply of 21 million coins, which will make it more valuable over time. Remember I said the gigachad bullrun is coming.

He predicts Bitcoin will soar to $250,000, and trillions will flow into altcoins. He points to the upcoming Genius and Clarity Acts as the key catalysts that will unlock massive growth. However, Peter Schiff, a well-known Bitcoin critic and gold supporter, says that this might be the perfect time to sell Bitcoin and buy silver. He believes that silver has more upside and less risk, claiming Bitcoin could crash while silver’s downside is limited.
Ethereum has finally made a decisive move after weeks of sideways consolidation, breaking above critical resistance and trading above the psychological $3,000 level. This surge has caught the attention of both spot buyers and derivatives traders, pushing ETH into a key technical and on-chain inflection point. The breakout coincides with heightened market interest, but the sustainability of this move now depends on how the price reacts to major supply zones in the coming days. Technical Analysis By ShayanMarkets The Daily Chart On the daily timeframe, ETH convincingly broke above the $2,800 resistance level, sweeping previous highs and reclaiming territory that was last traded back in early 2025. The 100-day and 200-day moving averages are now well below the price, located near the $2,300 and $2,500 marks, respectively. This offers a strong trend confirmation and dynamic support going forward. The recent breakout also invalidated the prior liquidity hunt near $2,900, suggesting genuine buying pressure rather than just a stop-run. A clean daily close above $3,000 strengthens the bullish case even further. That said, the price is now pushing toward a broader resistance block at $3,400. If the buyers want to maintain momentum, a retest of the $2,800 zone needs to hold as new support. Failure to hold this level could lead to a correction toward the 200-day moving average. Until then, momentum favors the upside. The 4-Hour Chart Zooming into the 4H chart, ETH has shown strong impulsive structure, leaving behind multiple imbalances and fair value gaps as it pushed through the $2,800 resistance zone. This move also cleared the prior buy-side liquidity zone, validating a bullish market structure shift. The current leg up has created a rising imbalance, which could act as a magnet for a short-term pullback if buyers start taking profits. The ideal scenario for continuation would be a controlled retracement into the $2,850–$2,900 range, forming a higher low and confirming that demand is still in control. If the pullback gets deeper, the fair value gap located at the $2,700 zone offers another layer of support. As long as the price stays above this zone and maintains higher lows, the bullish market structure remains intact. Sentiment Analysis Ethereum Open Interest Ethereum’s open interest across all exchanges has reached a new high of $22.6B, while price pushes just above the $3K mark. This sharp rise in open interest, without an equally aggressive move in price, signals a surge in leveraged positioning. Such behavior often precedes volatility, as crowded trades may trigger liquidations on either side if тхе price swings sharply. While the increase in open interest may support continuation if fueled by genuine spot demand, it also raises the risk of short-term corrections. If this open interest is overly long-heavy, a pullback could force a wave of liquidations and quickly drive the price back toward key support levels. Overall, the open interest surge reflects growing market participation, but it also suggests that ETH may be approaching a point where leverage becomes a double-edged sword.

The blockchain world is constantly evolving, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. One of the biggest hurdles facing decentralized networks has always been scalability – how to handle a massive number of transactions without sacrificing security or decentralization. Enter Validium Network , a cutting-edge modular layer-2 blockchain, which recently announced a pivotal move to overcome this challenge: the adoption of Avail’s Turbo DA. This strategic integration is set to revolutionize how high-throughput blockchain applications operate, promising a future of enhanced efficiency and seamless connectivity. But what does this mean for the ecosystem, and why is this partnership so significant? Why is Validium Network Pioneering Modular Solutions? In the quest for a more efficient and robust blockchain infrastructure, the concept of modularity has emerged as a powerful paradigm. Instead of a single blockchain trying to do everything (execution, settlement, consensus, data availability), modular blockchains separate these functions into specialized layers. Validium Network embraces this philosophy, focusing intensely on providing a high-throughput execution layer. This allows applications to process a vast number of transactions off-chain, while still inheriting the security guarantees of a base layer like Ethereum. Validium’s core strength lies in its ability to cater to demanding use cases, from large-scale gaming platforms to complex DeFi protocols, where speed and transaction volume are paramount. However, even with off-chain execution, a crucial component remains: ensuring that the data processed off-chain is available and verifiable. This is precisely where the integration with Avail comes into play, addressing a fundamental need for any layer-2 solution aiming for true blockchain scalability . Unpacking the Power of Avail Blockchain and Turbo DA At the heart of Validium’s recent announcement is Avail, a robust data availability (DA) layer. For those unfamiliar, a data availability layer ensures that all the data necessary to reconstruct the state of a blockchain, or to verify transactions processed off-chain, is published and accessible to everyone. This is critical for security, especially for rollups and Validiums, as it allows anyone to challenge invalid state transitions by proving fraud if the data is available. Avail’s Turbo DA is a specialized component designed to handle this data more efficiently. Think of it as a highly optimized highway for data, ensuring that even with massive transaction volumes, the data remains readily accessible. One of the standout features of Avail is its emphasis on light clients. Unlike full nodes that download and verify every piece of blockchain data, light clients can verify the integrity of the data with minimal resources. This is a game-changer for mobile devices and low-resource environments, making blockchain interactions more accessible and secure for a wider audience. The Avail blockchain empowers these light clients through advanced cryptographic techniques, allowing them to confirm data availability without needing to download the entire dataset. Addressing Blockchain Scalability : How Validium Benefits The integration of Avail’s Turbo DA directly tackles the inherent challenges of blockchain scalability that have long plagued the industry. For Validium Network, this means a significant boost in its ability to handle high-throughput use cases. Here’s how: Enhanced Data Throughput: By offloading data availability to Avail, Validium can focus solely on execution, leading to higher transaction processing speeds and greater overall capacity. Reduced Transaction Costs: Efficient data handling often translates to lower fees for users, making decentralized applications more economically viable for everyday use. Improved Finality: With data being readily available and verifiable, the time it takes for transactions to be considered final and irreversible can be significantly reduced. Robust Security Guarantees: The ability for light clients to verify data availability ensures that even users with limited computational resources can be confident in the security of their transactions, a cornerstone for decentralized systems. This synergy creates a powerful combination: Validium provides the lightning-fast execution, and Avail provides the secure, efficient data backbone, paving the way for truly scalable decentralized applications. The Crucial Role of Data Availability in L2 Security Why is Data Availability so crucial, especially for Layer 2 solutions like Validium? Imagine a scenario where transactions are processed off-chain, and only a summary is posted to the main blockchain. If the data supporting those off-chain transactions is not made public, malicious actors could potentially submit an invalid summary without anyone being able to detect or challenge it. This is known as the “data availability problem.” Avail solves this by guaranteeing that all transaction data from Validium is published and verifiable. Even if a full node goes offline, the data remains available across the Avail network, allowing anyone to download it and reconstruct the state or generate fraud proofs. This robust data availability layer is fundamental to maintaining the trust and security model of a rollup or Validium, ensuring that the decentralized nature of the system is preserved. It’s the safety net that allows L2s to scale without compromising the integrity of the underlying blockchain. Forging Seamless Interoperability with Avail Nexus The partnership between Validium and Avail isn’t just about immediate scalability; it’s also about building bridges for the future. Validium plans to further connect with Avail Nexus, a pivotal component designed to enhance interoperability and shared liquidity across different blockchain ecosystems. In a fragmented blockchain landscape where assets and data are often siloed, Avail Nexus aims to create a more unified environment. By leveraging Nexus, Validium Network will be able to facilitate seamless communication and asset transfers with other chains and rollups built on Avail. This vision of shared liquidity means that users and applications on Validium could easily interact with assets and protocols on other Avail-powered chains, fostering a more connected and efficient multi-chain future. This moves beyond simple token bridging, aiming for deeper composability that can unlock entirely new possibilities for decentralized finance and beyond. The future of blockchain hinges on its ability to communicate, and Avail Nexus is building the infrastructure for that global conversation. What Does This Mean for the Future of Decentralized Applications? This collaboration between Validium Network and Avail signifies a major step forward for the entire modular blockchain ecosystem. It demonstrates a clear path towards achieving the holy grail of blockchain development: a system that is simultaneously scalable, secure, and decentralized. For developers, this means building on Validium becomes even more attractive, as they can leverage high throughput without worrying about the underlying data availability infrastructure. For users, it promises a smoother, faster, and more affordable experience across various decentralized applications. As the blockchain space continues to mature, partnerships like this will be instrumental in driving mainstream adoption. They lay the groundwork for a future where blockchain technology powers everyday applications seamlessly, without users even needing to understand the complex layers beneath. It’s about making decentralized technology truly usable and accessible to everyone.

When the Ethereum Foundation offloads ETH, markets flinch. But this time, they handpicked SharpLink as the buyer. Behind the $25.7 million transaction lies a deeper narrative about staking, institutional alignment, and Ethereum’s next phase. On July 11, Minneapolis-based iGaming giant SharpLink Gaming announced it had closed a direct on-chain purchase of 10,000 Ether ( ETH ) tokens from the Ethereum Foundation, marking one of the largest peer-to-peer mainnet transfers between a protocol steward and a public company to date. The $25.7 million acquisition, executed at $2,572.37 per ETH, was finalized on July 10 without any intermediaries or custodial bridges. It’s a move that not only expands SharpLink’s crypto-heavy treasury strategy but also signals a rare, deliberate handoff of assets from the core of Ethereum’s development body to a listed entity aligned with the network’s long-term goals. The purchase, following another $19.2 million ETH acquisition last week, solidifies SharpLink’s position as the second-largest corporate holder of Ethereum, trailing only the foundation itself.

Historically, large ETH transfers from the Foundation have sparked sell-off fears, but this transaction was structured to avoid market disruption. It also aligns with the Foundation’s revised treasury strategy, which now focuses on strategic liquidity management rather than outright divestment. For SharpLink, locking in a sub-market price for 10,000 ETH provides more than just a discount. The move establishes a direct relationship with Ethereum’s core developers, potentially giving the company early insights into protocol upgrades and DeFi integrations. According to Joseph Lubin, who chairs SharpLink and also co-founded Ethereum, the transaction reflects more than balance sheet maneuvering. “This isn’t a trade – it is a commitment to our long-term vision. SharpLink is acquiring, staking and restaking ETH as responsible industry stewards, removing supply from circulation and reinforcing the health of the Ethereum ecosystem.” Lubin stated. SharpLink also views this deal as “the start of something bigger.” In Lubin’s words, the company hopes to model how public entities can “advance our ecosystem’s shared goals of decentralization, economic empowerment, and protocol-native finance.” Internally, the firm has engineered its ETH holdings into a transparent metric: the ETH Concentration score, which tracks tokens per 1,000 diluted shares. That level of visibility is rare in crypto-heavy firms and speaks to SharpLink’s intent to set benchmarks, not chase trends. At the same time, SharpLink said it’s undertaking a full-scale overhaul of its legacy iGaming business, tapping Ethereum’s smart contract infrastructure to build a more dynamic, trustless betting ecosystem.
