Historically, Ether has flirted with its ambitious goal, reaching nearly $5,000 in 2021. Meanwhile, XRP’s zenith was a modest $3.4 in January 2018, a height it only matched in 2025, much to the chagrin of its loyalists.
The announcement, made on the 8th of July by none other than Chris Maddern, the co-founder and chief executive officer of Rally, has sent ripples through the crypto community. Maddern, now assuming the role of chief technology officer at OpenSea, alongside his co-founder Christine Hall, who joins the leadership team, promises to bring a fresh breeze to the OpenSea Mobile experience. This reimagined platform, they say, will become the central hub for all things onchain, from the mystical world of non-fungible tokens to the whimsical realm of memecoins, and the ever-complex domain of decentralized finance.
For years the whirlpool of American law has spun Ripple and its helmsman in a strange, Kafkaesque dance. To survive, Garlinghouse proclaims, his vessel has worn the uncomfortable costume of “compliance-first”—the financial world’s version of a hair shirt, chafing but pious. 🧑⚖️
MAXFINEANCIAL (Aside, with much flourish): My learned sirs, observe this grand design: a grand double-bottom, verdant and lusty, emerges within yon orange flag. ‘Tis the hand script of continuation, or so I do proclaim on the scrolls of X!
The town crier alarums us: “The latest high, ‘tis but a gentle tap upon the double-bottom’s sacred trigger line, like a suitor rapping meekly at his beloved’s door.” Now, watch as the coin pirouettes upon the top of its flag, whirling atop that mystical 1-hour, 200-day Moving Average — a most obstinate friend, a real teetotaler, never letting a bull slip past unchecked. 🐂⚔️
Today’s prophecy: a petite pennant, pink as a blushing debutante at the ball, flutters its lashes for higher flight – yet, beware! For even as the chorus chants of ascent, a rare and frightful diamond top forms in the shadows: a pattern known to betray and send us cascading downward, as if gravity suddenly remembered its job.
Axel Adler Jr. (because of course, he’s a “Jr.”), analyst at CryptoQuant, says we’re basically in the bargain bin. “Today’s Mayer Multiple indicates that Bitcoin is trading at a discount to its historical bull rallies,” Adler posted on X. So apparently, Bitcoin’s not overpriced, it’s just shy—like your cousin at every family reunion. “It’s more undervalued than overvalued, a good fuel reserve for a new upward impulse.” Which I think means, “strap in, maybe?”
Freshly gilded by a 120% flight, Pudgy Penguins remains perched near its heights at $0.015—only sneezing politely in the face of minor dips. A month’s chart doth resemble a baroque staircase, winding ever upward (+290%, should you wish to embroider that onto a handkerchief). Nay, it is no longer a chart for mere jest. Early schemers and sharper eyes have deserted their past infatuations to court this formidable, feathered phenomenon.
USDT and USDC balances on Binance hit a record $31 billion in June 2025.
Now, for those of you who find cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets a bit too overwhelming, fear not! The Ethereum spot ETFs allow investors to gain exposure to the asset without having to directly own it.

Deep in the subsoil of the $0.183 to $0.184 range, a foundation was laid—a place where, with the regularity of a postman, buyers appeared from the mists. That volume, surging to 597,718, mocked the mere daily average of 189,000. Institutional hands, those silent giants, were clearly present, pushing POL like a sled across the frozen wastes, right above the $0.187 barricade with all the subtlety of a Moscow tram.
