Bitcoin, the king of the castle, is still the big cheese, holding 63.9% market share with a daily trading volume exceeding $45.3 billion. And let me tell you, that’s no small potatoes! 🥔 Despite modest gains of under 1% across multiple timeframes, Bitcoin’s continued climb signals strong investor confidence. Or maybe they’re just a bunch of crazy people throwing their money around like confetti! 🎉
This move is expected to help Ripple meet regulatory standards and, more importantly, attract the kind of confidence from big companies and institutions that usually comes with a side of fine print and a lot of lawyers. 📜
Now, you might be thinking, “Why on earth would anyone want to buy a memecoin named after the 45th President of the United States?” Well, apparently, the token hasn’t lacked high-profile backers, and Justin Sun is no exception. On the glorious day of July 9th, our dear friend Justin declared that he’d be purchasing a whopping $100 million worth of U.S. President Donald Trump’s memecoin through his various ventures.

According to PeckShield’s post on the social media platform X (because who uses Twitter anymore?), the hacker exploited the crypto exchange and sent $9 million of the stolen funds to the Ethereum (ETH) network from Arbitrum (ARB). Because, you know, one blockchain just isn’t enough. 🤑
Competitors—let us nod at Bybit, OKX, Coinbase, those earnest dancers in the margins—could only cobble together 29% of the limelight. Poor things! Binance alone strolls the boulevard with a champagne bottle and the key to the city.
Take Ripple’s XRP, for instance. This little token has been on a bit of a rollercoaster, but today it decided to hit the $2.4 mark for the first time since late May. It’s like it’s been on a long vacation and just got back to work, ready to make some serious moves. 🏖️💼
The Solana REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF (SSK), which launched July 2, has already attracted over $41 million in assets under management, according to Bloomberg Intelligence. Meanwhile, Volatility Shares’ leveraged Solana ETF (SOLT) has accumulated $69 million year-to-date, and its regular Solana ETF (SOLZ) holds $23 million. Not bad for a crypto that’s not named Bitcoin or Ethereum, right? 🙃
As of July 9, 2025, Ethereum is trading just above $2,600, reflecting a gradual upward movement driven by strong technical indicators and rising institutional demand. Traders and analysts are closely watching key resistance zones around $2,800 and $3,200, where a breakout could signal the beginning of a new upward leg. The anticipation is palpable, rather like the moment before the curtain rises on a thrilling theatrical performance. 🎭
It seems that the mere mention of Trump Media & Technology Group’s proposed ETF has sent CRO into a tizzy, rather like a teenager at a Justin Bieber concert. The proposed ETF, which is awaiting approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, would track a basket of five cryptocurrencies: bitcoin, ether (ETH), solana (SOL), XRP (XRP), and, of course, cronos (CRO). If approved, CRO would make up 5% of the fund’s weighting, a bit like the token equivalent of a participation trophy.
