Week of July 15–21, 2025
Bitwise Asset Management reports that corporate interest in Bitcoin hit a new high in Q2 2025. Over 159,107 BTC—worth more than $17.6 billion—were added to company balance sheets, a 23% increase from the previous quarter. Private companies now collectively hold more than 847,000 BTC, representing roughly 4% of Bitcoin’s total supply.
Truth Social, the social platform founded by President Donald Trump, has filed an application with the U.S. SEC to launch a crypto ETF. The proposed allocation: 75% to Bitcoin, 25% to Ethereum, and additional exposure to select altcoins.
Seamus Rocca, CEO of Xapo Bank, says Bitcoin’s four-year market cycle is not yet over, warning that a sharp price correction remains possible even after reaching new all-time highs. He emphasizes that Bitcoin remains a high-risk asset, with price movements still closely linked to the stock market.
Spot Ethereum ETFs saw record net inflows of $907 million last week as Ethereum climbed back to $3,000, reflecting continued growth in institutional demand.
Staking activity on Ethereum has also reached a new all-time high, with 29.4% of total ETH supply now staked, nearly a third. Analysts attribute the uptick to Ethereum’s recent “Pectra” upgrade.
The State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Shanghai has called for research into a Yuan-backed stablecoin, supporting further tech adoption. Hong Kong is seen as a promising launchpad for the Yuan stablecoin, thanks to its established offshore RMB market.
Bitcoin (BTC) broke above $112,000 to hit a new all-time high, and is now testing resistance at $121,000. The next major target is $130,000. If a pullback occurs, watch $112,000 as a key support and potential buy zone. Keep an eye on the RSI, which is entering overbought territory—short-term consolidation is possible.
Ethereum (ETH) broke through the key resistance at $2,850, making this the new support. Next targets: $3,300, then a move to retest the previous all-time high above $4,000. Look for buy opportunities during price pullbacks.
Stellar (XLM) delivered an 80.8% weekly return. Rather than chase prices at highs, wait for a pullback before entering. Support sits at $0.3630, with short-term resistance at $0.5400.
1inch (1INCH) returned 66.5% last week. After the strong rally, the price is pulling back—look for a buy zone around the previous resistance (now support) at $0.2617. If this doesn’t hold, consider cutting losses. Resistance is at the recent high of $0.3874.
Bitcoin set another all-time high just ahead of the U.S. “Crypto Week” and the introduction of three major digital asset bills. Watch for a possible “sell the news” reaction if there are no big surprises—such as an announcement that Bitcoin will be added to the U.S. Strategic Reserve. So far, any pullbacks haven’t reversed the overall uptrend.
Altcoin buying interest is picking up again, especially in tokens that outperformed in the last Altcoin Season. The strategy: accumulate on dips, focusing on large-cap tokens.
A key event to watch: U.S. inflation (CPI) data, expected at 2.6% (up from 2.4%). A lower-than-expected number could boost sentiment and raise expectations for an early FOMC rate cut.
Investment Strategy: The trend for Bitcoin remains bullish, but short-term upside may be limited. Consider increasing allocation to large-cap altcoins, especially those set to benefit from new U.S. regulatory developments around stablecoins and DeFi.
