At press time, XRP is clinging to life around $3.03-$3.07. That’s right, folks-it’s still breathing after some serious market turbulence. Sure, it retreated from its July highs near $3.65, but guess what? The $3 mark has held strong like an overprotective parent. Daily turnover? A whopping $6 billion! It seems institutions are throwing money at this thing faster than you can say “crypto chaos.” 💸

Bitcoin (BTC) went up by a whopping… wait for it… 0.17% in the last day. I mean, hold onto your hats, folks. This is the kind of action that gets people calling their brokers! Or maybe not. 🙄

Daily transaction fees, once the blood and sweat of miners, now barely register-3.5 BTC, whispers Glassnode, as if gossiping over stale tea.
The streets are abuzz not with revolution, but with the echoes of Powell’s Jackson Hole sermon, hinting at merciful rate cuts, surely to save us from our own foolish optimism. “Policy adjustments,” he muses. It’s enough to make a speculator swoon or sob, depending on his last buy-in.

At the beginning of the year, Ethereum (ETH) was trading at a measly 0.036 BTC per coin. By April and May, it had plummeted to 0.019 BTC, but it’s since soared to 0.042 BTC. 2025 has been a slow burn for ETH, with its momentum taking a bit longer to kick in, but several magical factors have fueled its recent ascent. Top of the list is the vanishing act of ETH on exchanges-levels not seen since the dark ages of July 2016.

And who wouldn’t listen to an ‘insight’ from a heavyweight crypto fortune teller like Eric Trump? It’s like watching a tiny shrimp perform quantum physics – bewildering yet intriguing. At some Wyoming Blockchain Symposium event (probably located inside a volcano, we suspect), Trump prognosticated that Bitcoin might skyrocket beyond $175K by December, before taking a joyride to over $1M in a couple of galactic rotations. “There’s no question!” he declared with the confidence of a man who believes he’s seen a flying spaghetti monster.
