Kinetiq, ever the diplomatic ex, issued a statement about their considerate early notice—seven-day unstaking delay and all that jazz—so everyone could presumably set their alarms and calmly move their tokens. Honestly, who are we kidding? The whales were already halfway out the door, sunglasses on, Uber waiting, prepping for Kinetiq’s sparkling new features.
But analysts are worried about the mismatch between the buzz and Ethereum’s price action.
One of the key players in this Ethereum fan club is – you guessed it – institutional investors 🤑. They’re increasingly seeing ETH as the “digital gold” of the crypto world (because who needs actual gold when you can have a digital version, am I right? 💁♀️) and adding it to their investment portfolios like it’s going out of style.
This sudden burst of energy comes as the network gears up for the long-awaited Heimdall v1 to v2 migration on its mainnet. In a tweet that could only be described as a digital pep talk, Polygon co-founder and newly appointed Polygon Foundation CEO Sandeep Nailwal confirmed that the upgrade will go live on July 10. 📢
Analysts at Bitfinex have suggested that the pause in Bitcoin’s rally is due to a growing sense of uncertainty among investors. Buyers, it seems, are reluctant to push the price higher without stronger catalysts or clearer signals from the broader economic landscape. This hesitancy has resulted in muted demand at current price levels, keeping Bitcoin from breaking out.
As we gaze upon the daily chart, we behold a sight most wondrous: Ethereum consolidating above key moving averages, like a majestic eagle soaring above the fray 🦅. The 50, 100, and 200-day MAs, those stalwart sentinels of market momentum, stand stacked below price action, providing layered support, like a loyal entourage guarding their star 🤝. And though the RSI has remained in the neutral-to-bullish zone, a tantalizing 57, there’s still plenty of room for ETH to run, like a debutante at her first ball, before it becomes overbought 💃.
And so, they set out to raise a small fortune, a trifling SEK 516 million (~$54M), via share and convertible debenture issues. Because what’s a health tech firm without a Bitcoin treasury strategy, am I right? 💸
Meme coins aren’t just trending—they’re practically doing the Macarena in the middle of a crypto dance party! These coins are being fueled by viral social media campaigns, an army of retail traders, and a *lot* of speculation happening on both CEXs and DEXs. With market caps soaring higher than your last questionable decision, these meme coins have Lamborghini potential (we’re talking 7-10x returns in a single day, people). Basically, if you like living on the edge (or just want to impress your friends), meme coins are your new best friend. 🚗💨
Cronos (CRO) surged over 20% on Tuesday, a day that could have been titled “The Unexpected Inheritance,” after Trump Media and Technology Group filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a Blue Chip ETF. This ETF, a veritable who’s who of the crypto world, includes CRO alongside Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Ripple (XRP). Notably, Cronos received a 5% allocation, which is more than Ripple’s 2%. If approved, the ETF will be listed on NYSE Arca, and its assets will be custodied by Foris DAX Trust Company, Crypto.com’s custody arm. One can almost hear the sighs of relief from the CRO community, as if a long-lost relative had finally left them a small fortune.
This mysterious analyst, now apparently psychic with charts, informed his 153,500 followers on X (aka Twitter with a midlife crisis) that Bitcoin is teasing us with a bullish continuation pattern. Think it’s about to shoot up. Think fireworks. Think your mum’s look when she heard you bought crypto. 😱
