• XRP, once valiant at $3.14, has now fallen to $2.97, its greatest retreat since July.
• A collection of whales, with rather deep pockets, acquired 440 million XRP whilst retail traders scurried off.
• A symmetrical triangle pattern has appeared on the charts, perhaps foreshadowing a breakout near $3.90 if the resistance is bested.
• Alas, the broader crypto markets too, have shown weakness, as risk-off sentiment takes root.
In an announcement made via WeChat (because of course, what else would they use?), CMB has revealed that it now offers virtual asset trading services. This magical moment followed the granting of a virtual asset service provider license by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, a process that took place in mid-July. How thrilling!
In a move that screams “buy high, pray it doesn’t drop too low,” Strategy added 430 more Bitcoin (BTC) to their stash during the week that ended on Sunday, according to a filing with the SEC. This little acquisition cost them around $119,666 per coin. Seems a bit much, but hey, Bitcoin’s known for its mood swings. One minute, it’s soaring to $124,000, and the next, it’s dragging itself down to $115,000. CoinGecko, I see you.
Lets you know, dear reader, that local sleuths scrutinized 2,962 residents harboring a collective debt of nearly 20 billion won (that’s about $14 million in human money). Among these, 50 individuals had parked their crypto assets on major exchanges, like so many asteroids in a cosmic parking lot. 🚀
Mark your calendars, for on August 18, 2025, at precisely 23:00 (UTC+8), PLUME shall make its glorious debut on the trading stage. Trading pairs? Oh, they’ve rolled out the red carpet: USDT, USDC, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY are all invited to this gala. Naturally, the festivities will adhere to Binance’s Seed Tag rules, because what’s a party without a few regulations to keep things “orderly”? 🎭
Starting in August 2025 (because why rush these things?), foreign tourists will be able to swap their cryptocoins for good old-fashioned Thai baht. And let’s face it, no one travels halfway around the world to pay for pad thai with Bitcoin directly-QR codes are far more dramatic. This 18-month experiment is aimed squarely at reviving tourism, which took a hit when Chinese visitors became scarcer than pineapple on pizza in certain parts of Italy.

Oh, what a week it has been! Global crypto ETPs, those financial marvels of our modern era, recorded an astonishing $3.75 billion in inflows, as reported by the venerable European crypto asset manager CoinShares on Monday. A sum so vast, it could buy you a small country, or at least a very fancy yacht. 🛥️💰
The annotated parchment before us displays a fledgling sequence of five waves; with waves one and two deftly complete in May and June, a vertical ascendica into mid-July, and now a sequence of A-B-C that awaits to conclude wave 4. The impetuous journey began at the third wave’s zenith, proceeds to a B-wave recovery reaching $3.40, and is poised to descend. As is to be expected, the Fibonacci arrangement remains queen on this chart, delineating the levels one might take arms against in their trading pursuits. Notwithstanding, at the moment of observation, the XRP found itself about $3.02881, caught betwixt the bands of 0.786 and 0.888 retracements.
