Crypto Markets Shake Off Old Patterns, Eye New Highs Amid Strategic Accumulation
Bitcoin breaks historical behavior as long-term holders show resilience. Meanwhile, ETH gains institutional favor, SOL looks poised for a bounce, and XRP remains volatile but bullish.
What we will talk about today...
Bitcoin Defies Past Cycles with Calm Above $117K
Solana Drops 9% but $180 Seen as ‘Golden Entry’
Ether Surges on Institutional Wave and ETF Optimism
XRP Drops 10%, But Comeback Still in Sight

Despite nearing record highs, Bitcoin’s exchange flows remain unusually low, a sign that this rally may not end like 2017 or 2021.
Low exchange flows: BTC exchange inflows remain subdued after hitting $122K, unlike prior peaks that saw heavy sell-offs.
Flow Pulse signal: CryptoQuant’s Flow Pulse suggests big holders aren’t selling yet.
Overheating risk: Another indicator warns BTC may be in a “hot” bullish phase, often followed by sharp pullbacks.
“Exchange flows staying low shows investor confidence is strong. But any surge in Flow Pulse could flip the mood quickly.”

Solana Drops 9% but $180 Seen as ‘Golden Entry’
A sharp correction and liquidation wipeout may set up Solana’s next leg higher, if support holds.
$30M in long liquidations: Over-leveraged longs were wiped out as SOL fell from $205 to $186.
Technical bounce zone: $180 support and a golden cross signal bullish continuation.
Bearish divergence: Futures data shows selling pressure was building even as price rose.
“This kind of pullback is healthy after a 56% run-up. If $180 holds, SOL could be setting up for a major rally.”

ETH leads the market after a regulatory green light and a rush of institutional buying signal new momentum.
📊MARKET UPDATE: #Stablecoin supply on #Ethereum reaches new all-time high, crossing $140 billion on July 22. The total supply on the network has nearly doubled since early 2024 lows. 👀

ETH/BTC ratio up 27%: Capital rotation favors Ether as Bitcoin dominance slips.
$2.1B in ETP inflows: ETH-based investment products see a flood of capital.
Staking ETFs on deck: Expected launch by Q3 could attract $20B–$30B annually.
“This was a watershed moment. Ether now anchors tokenization, staking, and TradFi integration.”

XRP Drops 10%, But Comeback Still in Sight
Despite a steep pullback, some analysts still see XRP challenging its 2018 all-time high, if the altcoin rally holds.
Price down to $3.21: XRP retraced 10% but remains above key EMAs.
Market mood matters: Bitpanda says XRP’s move depends heavily on broader altcoin sentiment.
Altcoin Season signals: Bitcoin dominance down 5%, favoring alts like XRP.
“XRP’s next leg hinges on whether capital rotation into altcoins continues. It’s highly sentiment-driven.”
