Japan’s slow and risk-averse approval system, not taxes, is the real barrier driving Web3 startups and liquidity offshore, says WeFi CEO Maksym Sakharov.
Cambodia has arrested more than 3,000 individuals in connection with a vast cybercrime network. According to the details of the arrest, there were about 105 Indians and 81 Pakistanis. The international crackdown uncovered a vast trafficking and online fraud syndicate, with several victims being freed by authorities. According to the report, the arrest in Cambodia prompted Indian authorities to launch an investigation, led by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), into the cross-border digital crime network. In the documents released by ED, several fraud cases that have been tackled in the country have origins in scam centers throughout Southeast Asia , with Cambodia and Laos fingered as potential locations. These activities are always linked to the Golden Triangle, a notorious hub for illegal trafficking. Cambodia arrests individuals linked to a cybercrime network Investigations have revealed that numerous Indian citizens have been victims of this trafficking, with the perpetrators enticing them with the prospect of securing high-paying jobs for them abroad, especially in Singapore and Dubai. At the end of the day, most of them are trafficked to the locations where the groups carry out their digital scam . One victim, Manish Tomar from Uttar Pradesh, alleged that he was lured by Instagram influencer Bobby Kataria with a job offer in Singapore. Tomar said he ended up in Laos, and his passport was confiscated by Chinese nationals. He added that he was then taken to the Golden Triangle, where he was forced to take part in several investment scams and impersonation frauds. “He described a compound of 20–30 buildings guarded by armed private security, with translators to mediate between Chinese bosses and trafficked workers from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh,” the ED said in their note. Another victim, known as Paul, said he thought he was heading to Dubai for a job interview but found himself in a “digital arrest scam” center in Poim Phet in Cambodia. “There were guards trained in Muay Thai, armed with rifles. I was trained for seven days to impersonate a CBI officer. My job was to threaten victims in India, claiming they were involved in illegal activity,” Paul said. Paul admitted to scamming a person in Maharashtra of Rs. 75,000 ($900). In his detailed account, Paul mentioned that the scam centers operated in different units, but they were structured. “Line 1” would pretend to be from TRAI, while “Line 2” would impersonate police officers. “Line 3” acted as DCP-rank officers, offering fake help to their victims. Paul said he worked in Line 2, impersonating a police officer on WhatsApp video calls. The uniformed individual would lip-sync while he delivered the threats in multiple Indian languages. Furthermore, Paul said the syndicate used iPhones instead of computers to avoid IP tracking, and VOIP calls were routed through an app called Brian, with lines purchased from Thailand. He said the group specifically trained Pakistani nationals to impersonate Indian law enforcement, making it harder for Indian agencies to trace the fraud. Meanwhile, the ED said it is investigating a fraud network worth at least Rs. 159 crore (approximately $19.5 million). While most of the funds have been moved abroad via digital assets, the agency has been able to seize Rs. 3 crore ($360,000) from several Indian bank accounts. The ED also said it has secured the arrest of eight individuals for aiding in the creation of shell companies and laundering crime proceeds. Indian officials say the operation is a “ pig-butchering ” scam model where victims are being manipulated through various social platforms to invest in several digital assets and stock markets. Several high-profile losses have been connected to the crackdown in Cambodia. A woman reported that she was scammed out of Rs. 7.59 crore ($900,000) after investing in a bogus app. Another man lost Rs. 9.00 crore ($1.09 million), while a doctor lost Rs. 5.93 crore ($711,000).

The post South Korea Seeks Trade Deal with U.S. Ahead of Tariff Deadline appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News South Korea is racing to finalize a trade agreement with the U.S. before August 1, when tariffs on Korean exports could rise to 25%. Seoul aims to secure terms at least as favorable as Japan’s recent 15% tariff cap. Key issues include shipbuilding cooperation, while sensitive topics like beef and rice imports are off the table. Despite strong export growth in tech sectors, failure to reach a deal risks heavy tariffs on 44% of South Korea’s GDP from exports.

The post Ethereum Price Gains 75%: What’s Fueling the Rally? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News The Ethereum price is exchanging hands at $3740 with 24-hour volume of $32.74 billion, it has displayed wonderful gains since June’ last week to till now gaining nearly 75% gains. This happened as institutional interest in Ethereum crypto has hit a significant milestone this July. The major push is received with rapidly gaining ETF inflows and whale accumulation, this is fueling optimism for a broader breakout in the Ethereum price ahead. ETF Inflows Trigger Surge in Ethereum Price Sentiment The Ethereum price saw renewed upward momentum on July 25th, and gained 6%. This gains are closely tied to a record-breaking surge in spot ETF inflows over the month and on 25th too. According to on-chain analyst Ted Pillows , Ethereum ETFs registered a net inflow of $452.8 million on a single day, out of which BlackRock’s ETHA accounted for $440.1 million, with the remainder attributed to Fidelity’s FETH. These figures are displaying a very extraordinary difference from the early July numbers, where daily inflows remained under $100 million. However, since July 9th, this trend reversed dramatically, revealing a multifold jump in institutional buys. Whale Activity Spikes as Institutional Momentum Builds Supporting this ongoing ETH bullish wave, the analyst Ali Martinez also highlighted a rise in large Ethereum holders, based on Glassnode’s data tracking “mega whale addresses” holding more than 10,000 ETH. 170 new whales holding over 10,000 Ethereum $ETH have joined the network in the past month. This is a strong sign of growing institutional interest! pic.twitter.com/q06HrHx9iE — Ali (@ali_charts) July 26, 2025 He mentioned on X that, since July 9th, over 170 new whale addresses have been added to the network. This is firmly suggesting that much of the ETF inflow is translating directly into long-term accumulation and large entities are positioning themselves for a long-term move. Moreover, Ted Pillows further remarked that on-chain volume has surged by 288% over the past three weeks, reaching a staggering $10.38 billion. According to him, the Ethereum price rally has only just begun, he bets that the real breakout still lies ahead and will be visibly louder once it manifests. Ethereum Price Chart Faces Multi-Year Trendline Test Zooming out to the Ethereum price chart on a weekly timeframe, a critical technical development is underway. As noted by another analyst, he revealed that the Ethereum price is attempting to break a 3.7-year long descending trendline. If Ethereum manages to give a weekly close, it would likely shoot a sustained upward trajectory. $ETH /W1 #Ethereum is attempting to break a 3.7-year trendline. pic.twitter.com/EcscYzdXFf — Trader Tardigrade (@TATrader_Alan) July 26, 2025 This optimism aligns with the broader Ethereum price analysis today, where market optimism is backed not just by inflows, but also by strong technical setups and a supportive macro environment. Therefore, with the Ethereum price currently holding near the key breakout areas, several traders are starting to make bold forecasts. Among them, analyst Rekt Fencer anticipates a parabolic rally where he targets toward $10,000 by the end of 2025.
New data from the market intelligence firm Glassnode reveals that ancient Bitcoin ( BTC ) is awakening, suggesting that sell-side pressure may rock the crypto king. In a new thread on the social media platform X, the crypto analytics platform notes that tens of thousands of tokens have sprung to life during the month of July, meaning that early investors could be looking to take profits. “[Thursday] saw another wave of ancient coins move on-chain, with 3,900 BTC aged over 10 years becoming active. This follows the 80,000 BTC that moved on July 4, 2025. Such activity from long-dormant supply often reflects internal reallocation, custodial shifts, or in some cases sell-side pressure.” Source: Glassnode/X According to Glassnode, the top crypto asset by market cap could still form a “bottom formation zone” if it fails to hold support. “The sharp rally from $110,000 to $117,000 created an on-chain air gap or a low-density accumulation zone. Since the $122,000 ATH (all-time high), price has held above it. If support fails, history shows such gaps can still evolve into bottom formation zones.” Source: Glassnode/X In its weekly on-chain analytics report, Glassnode details how BTC reaching a $1 trillion realized market cap is a monumental step for the flagship cryptocurrency. “Recent capital inflow has pushed Bitcoin’s realized cap above the $1 trillion mark for the first time. This is truly a monumental milestone for Bitcoin, highlighting its deep liquidity profile, and growing relevance on the macro stage. The larger Bitcoin becomes, the more capital can be stored within it, and the larger size can be settled via transactions.” Bitcoin’s realized market cap calculates the value of each coin at the price it was last transacted (on-chain), rather than the current market price. The metric aims to represent the “true” capital inflow into the BTC network. Bitcoin is trading for $116,671 at time of writing, a 2.1% decrease during the last 24 hours.

The post Ripple Co-Founder Chris Larsen Sells $200M XRP, Will He Sell More in the Coming Week? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News XRP is currently trading near $3.16 with about $8 billion in market cap, despite a 14% drop over the past week. The token is showing resilience, sitting above key technical averages, but recent large token activity is drawing renewed scrutiny. Larsen Sells $200M XRP Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen has offloaded over 100 million XRP tokens, worth around $200 million, during the recent price dip , adding pressure to the already shaky market. XRP fell by nearly 20%, touching $3.18 as of July 23. While some see this as a routine move, analysts warn that such large-scale selling, especially during market pullbacks, can worsen price drops. Chris Larsen (Ripple co-founder) still holds 2.58B $XRP — that’s $8.83B. If $200M was just the warm-up… what’s next? Don’t get dumped on. Don’t be the exit liquidity. Protect yourself. https://t.co/k152FXlm8N pic.twitter.com/T5CpTQjdDa — Maartunn (@JA_Maartun) July 25, 2025 Larsen still holds a massive 2.58 billion XRP (about $7.9 billion), and experts like CryptoQuant’s J.A. Maartun believe more sales could be coming. This has raised concerns about how much influence major holders like Larsen have on XRP’s price action . Analysts tracked about $140 million of that going through centralized platforms, often a signal of forthcoming sales. XRP fell from its $3.66 high to below $3.16 in the same week. What Makes This Sell-Off Different? This isn’t Larsen’s first liquidation spree; he’s sold over 107 million XRP (valued at about $3.3 billion) since November. His fellow co-founder, Jed McCaleb, completed his orderly exit in 2022, but Larsen’s continued activity keeps pressure on market sentiment. Some observers see this pattern as strategic profit-taking built into the token’s early structure. Major seller activity near all-time highs, but not coordinated dumping, is historically normal for founder-held coins. Still, the scale raises concerns around micro-market influence. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse Explains Why Hidden Road Is Key to DeFi Growth , XRP Price Crash Ahead? While critics cite the founder’s selling as a trigger for recent weakness, others point to broader market trends driving the pullback. Legal expert Bill Morgan dismissed the idea that one person is tanking the market, citing macro forces and regulatory anxiety instead. Even after large withdrawals, technical indicators show support near $2.25 to $3.00, and XRP is consolidating around $3.10-$3.16, a balance point where both bulls and bears are active. Bitcoin dominance has slipped to around 59–61%, a sign that money is rotating into tokens like XRP, SOL, and Dogecoin, which have recovered strong gains. Technical setups show room to move upward from current support levels, with a break above $3.66 potentially triggering renewed buying up toward resistance near $3.81. Institutional demand remains steady, with open interest in XRP futures climbing steadily. Will Chris Larsen Sell More XRP in the Coming Days? With founder sales still possible, investors are watching how markets absorb liquidity. If XRP can reclaim $3.31 and bounce off support, traders may view recent declines as short-term noise. If not, deeper correction toward $2.25 or below could follow. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Chris Larsen sold over 100M XRP during a price dip, possibly as strategic profit-taking, raising market concerns. Will Chris Larsen keep selling XRP? Analysts say more sales are likely, as Larsen still holds 2.58B XRP worth $7.9B, impacting market sentiment. How does Larsen’s XRP sale affect the price? Large founder sales during dips can increase downward pressure, though some analysts cite broader market trends.
The post Finland’s Credit Rating Cut to AA by Fitch on Fiscal Weakness appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Fitch Ratings downgraded Finland’s long-term foreign-currency issuer rating from “AA+” to “AA,” citing rising government debt and insufficient measures to control spending. Debt is expected to rise to 86.3% of GDP in 2025 and may exceed 90% by 2029, well above peer averages. Despite a €9 billion fiscal package, deficits are set to remain above 3% until 2027. Finland’s GDP growth lags Europe, unemployment has risen to 9.2%, and inflation is picking up. Still, strong pension assets and a solid banking sector provide some support.
XRP is currently holding firm just above the critical $3.00 level, trading around $3.19 at the time of writing. After failing to sustain momentum above the $3.21 resistance, the price retraced to retest the major $3.00 support, a level now closely watched by analysts for signs of a renewed breakout. Among them, respected market analyst Casitrades believes XRP may be gearing up for a powerful Wave 3 rally in its ongoing Elliott Wave structure. XRP Holds Strong at Support as Wave Structure Develops In a recent analysis shared via X, Casitrades emphasized that XRP appears to have completed a deep Wave 2 correction, reaching an 85.4% Fibonacci retracement from the previous swing high. XRP Tests Critical $3 Support: Is Wave 3 About to Begin? Unfortunately, $XRP could not hold the $3.21 resistance, and ultimately has come back down to backtest the $3.00 major support. What's promising is that we have not made a new low. Instead, it appears to have… pic.twitter.com/bVD3HAwRBN — CasiTrades (@CasiTrades) July 25, 2025 Importantly, the asset has not made a lower low, a positive signal suggesting the corrective phase may be over. If the $3.00 support continues to hold, this could mark the beginning of a Wave 3 impulse, traditionally the strongest and most explosive move in Elliott Wave theory. Casitrades is now watching for a reclaim of the $3.21 resistance level. A break above this zone, especially on rising volume, would add strong confirmation that Wave 3 is underway. His analysis suggests a Wave 3 target of around $3.82, which aligns with the 2.618 Fibonacci extension and notably coincides with the all-time high (ATH) reported by multiple data sources. Technical and Market Signals Support the Outlook XRP’s price structure remains constructive despite recent volatility. After touching an intraday low of $3.02, the price quickly rebounded, reflecting underlying buying strength. Analysts from Binance and CoinDesk also noted the growing institutional interest and strong dip-buying behavior around the $3.00 level. Market participants are closely monitoring volume trends as a potential catalyst. Historically, strong volume accompanying a break above a key resistance, such as $3.21, can quickly escalate into aggressive upward moves. A successful breakout could open the door for a retest of historical highs and potentially a run toward the $4.00–$6.00 range in the medium term.

Regulatory pressure has eased since Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC began to wind down. Institutional interest in XRP is rising, with multiple spot ETF applications under review , and futures-based XRP products already trading. Ripple’s broader ecosystem growth is also noteworthy. Its stablecoin, RLUSD, is gaining traction across international markets, and XRP continues to be integrated into cross-border payment networks. These developments increase XRP’s utility and token burn rate, further supporting price appreciation. Moreover, ongoing discussions about XRP’s inclusion in a U.S. national digital asset reserve, alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, are reinforcing investor confidence. While not yet official policy, such considerations add a significant layer of legitimacy and long-term potential to XRP’s narrative. Casitrades’ analysis suggests that XRP may be entering a pivotal phase. If the $3.00 support holds and price climbs back above $3.21 with conviction, a Wave 3 impulse toward $3.82 and beyond could be imminent. With favorable technicals, surging institutional interest, and strong fundamental backing, XRP’s outlook appears increasingly bullish. With the weekend approaching, market unpredictability could set the stage for a surprise breakout. All eyes now remain on the $3.21 resistance, the trigger point that could unlock XRP’s next explosive move. Disclaimer : This content is meant to inform and should not be considered financial advice.
