BlockBeats news, on August 15, Greeks.Live analyst Adam posted on social media, "As BTC hits a new all-time high and ETH approaches its historical peak, the market has experienced a somewhat unexpected pullback, mainly triggered by PPI exceeding expectations. There hasn't been much movement in the options market, with major expiration IV showing no significant changes, and the Skew's fluctuation is also relatively small. However, from the trading volume, we can see the market's trading enthusiasm; today, Deribit traded $10.9 billion in options, marking the first time a daily trading volume has surpassed $10 billion. High trading enthusiasm indicates that the market still has strong confidence in the future, and a bull run is likely to continue."

Odaily News LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated on the X platform that every pullback in a bull run trend is an opportunity to increase the position, and there is no need to worry about being trapped. However, one must not use high leverage, as the rise cannot be a straight line. If BTC rises to $150,000, pulls back to $110,000, and then rises above $180,000, it is also a very normal upward trend route. Players using high leverage in between will become fuel, and it is better to focus on planning for off-market income.

BlockBeats news, on August 14, Goldman Sachs' macroeconomic research team predicted that the Fed will lower interest rates by 25 basis points in September, October, and December 2025, totaling three rate cuts. This policy adjustment is expected to drive the global market towards a lower interest rate environment. Goldman Sachs also predicts that the Fed will cut rates two more times in 2026, each time by 25 basis points, ultimately lowering the terminal interest rate range to 3% to 3.25%. BiyaPay analysts pointed out that under this macroeconomic backdrop, the crypto assets market is also performing strongly. Bitcoin (BTC) broke through $123,500, setting a new historical high, with the current price at $123,536.47, and a 24-hour rise of 3.01%. However, the market is experiencing significant fluctuations, and investors should be cautious in managing risks to ensure rational investments. To help

PANews August 14 news, CryptoQuant analyst Yonseident stated that the NUPL (Net Unrealized PNL) indicator shows that when the value is above 0, most coins are in a profitable state, which may trigger profit selling. Historically, the peaks of market cycles are usually accompanied by NUPL peaks. There was a peak in the market in 2017, two in 2021, and the current cycle may be forming a third peak. Unlike before, this round of market fluctuations is more stable, mainly influenced by the inflow of institutional funds such as U.S. ETFs. Although the market is more stable, the magnitude of each rise is decreasing, which means the bull market may last longer, but the likelihood of a rapid surge in the short term is relatively low.

BlockBeats news, on August 14, former Ark Invest crypto head and current Placeholder VC partner Chris Burniske predicted the peak prices of mainstream cryptocurrencies in October as follows: Bitcoin: $142,690; Ethereum: $6,900-8,000; SOL: $420. Chris Burniske also pointed out that the crazier the prices in August, September, and October, the more convinced he is that October will see a peak. If the market can quickly pull back significantly and remain sluggish, perhaps this bull run can last even longer.

BlockBeats news, on August 13, according to Etherscan data, the Ethereum network Gas fee is currently reported at 1.901 gwei, with on-chain activity relatively calm. As Ethereum rebounds and breaks through 4700 USD, the on-chain activity has not been as active as expected. In previous bull runs, the Ethereum network Gas fee often maintained above 50 gwei.

Odaily News Data shows that the term "Altcoins" has reached an all-time high in global Google search popularity, surpassing the peaks of several previous bull market cycles. This trend may indicate a sharp rise in market interest in altcoins, with investor sentiment significantly improving.

Gate News bot message, CEXxas Capital currently holds short positions across multiple cryptocurrencies in two separate wallets. The firm recorded a floating loss of $244.78M on their short positions in BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, and SUI. The largest portion of the losses stems from their ETH positions, ac

Odaily News LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated in a post on the X platform: "The trade war has landed, interest rate cuts are expected to begin, a super bull run is coming. According to the rise rotation law, after BTC rises, ETH will rise. ETH has reached a new high around 4800, and next, mainstream tokens will rise in rotation, similar to LTC, ENA, UNI, etc. Make sure to hold all these mainstream tokens. Finally, the alt season will begin, especially for altcoins with fundamentals. Be sure to hold Spot and do not engage in shorting. For those outside the circle who ask daily if they can buy, I have a unified suggestion: allocate 10% of your assets to buy."

The four-year bull run and bear market cycle of the crypto assets market may be breaking down. Analysts say that many Bitcoin reserve companies hold large amounts of Bitcoin, which challenges traditional cycle patterns. Some experts believe that future price returns may appear in 2026, breaking the rising pattern seen after the last three halvings.

Industrial Securities pointed out that the market is gradually forming a bull run mentality, with significant capital inflow, especially from high-risk funds. Meanwhile, low-risk funds are following structural opportunities, seeking undervalued segments. Insurance funds continue to increase their allocation to equity assets and expand their investment scope. The performance of active equity funds has improved, and foreign capital is also flowing back into A-shares, indicating an increase in participation and allocation willingness.

LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated that after ETH breaks 4000 US dollars, the target is 5000 US dollars, and he is optimistic about the performance of small coins. Ethereum rose to 4200 US dollars, and Yi Lihua mentioned that holding ETH is key to participating in the bull run.

Odaily News According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, the address starting with 0x219 has sold 3,000 ETH (approximately 11.74 million USD) in the past hour, finally waiting for a day to recoup investment and take profit, with a profit of 1.24 million USD from this sale. The two main funding source addresses for this address accumulated 3,750 ETH at an average price of 3,500 USD during the last bull run from April to December 2021.

CryptoQuant reports that after Bitcoin reached a historic high of $123,000, it has entered a short-term consolidation and downward risk, with the bullish index dropping from 80 to 60. Although it is still in the bullish range, the upward momentum has weakened, and if the price continues to weaken, it may confirm a Bear Market.

Odaily News LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated: "Trump is more eager than us to cut interest rates and hopes for encryption to rise (the Trump family's largest assets are in encryption). Under the obvious bull run and bullish line, the best strategy is to hold and wait for a pullback to increase the position. Just a few months ago, when we called for ETH to reach 10,000 and 14,000, we faced countless doubts and ridicule. Now it seems to have become a consensus that ETH has reached 10,000. This is the speed of encryption and how the bullish line changes beliefs."

According to BlockBeats news, on August 7th, Yi Lihua, founder of LD Capital, posted on social media, stating that Trump is more eager than investors to see interest rate cuts and a rise in the crypto market (as a large portion of his family's assets is in the crypto market). Under the clear bull run strategy, the best action is to hold and wait for a pullback to increase the position.

Odaily News According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, PLAY surged 300% in 1 hour, with a peak funding rate of 0.2917%, indicating that bullish traders' aggressive buying prompted arbitrage funds to buy Spot. This was driven by contract buy orders without intense Bull vs Bear Battle; bullish traders could not force bearish traders to capitulate and pay profits through high funding rates. Ultimately, PLAY's returns will turn into a "Long Kills Long" model for those who run early. Moreover, PLAY fundamentally differs from $MEMEFI, as MEMEFI may hold on until the 11th for automatic Delivery, while PLAY lacks such an opportunity, and instead, bullish traders may struggle to support under high funding rates. The success of MYX's pump marketing has attracted a large number of retail investors chasing the price on the gainers list, while most Tokens do not actually have such "long-term control over funding rates."

Matrixport pointed out that despite discussions about the "alts bull run", the market rebound is short-lived and concentrated, lacking sustainability and fundamental support. It is expected that the rise will be difficult to maintain, and overall sentiment still needs to be observed.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr pointed out that the Bitcoin bull run has entered its later stages, investor risk appetite has decreased, and holders have begun to sell, increasing market pressure. Although there are still profits to be made, the marginal returns on price increases are diminishing, predicting that there may be two rebounds in the future, after which the market will face a pullback.

The crypto KOL of Smart Money, 0xsun.sol, stated that there is a serious divergence in the market between bulls and bears, and has opened Hedging Transactions: go long on ETH and shorting alts. He believes that ETH will dominate during the market pump, with institutional funds concentrated on ETH, making it difficult for altcoins to follow. If the market bull run continues, it will still be driven by ETH, and the bear market will also struggle to stand alone.

Jin10 data reported on July 28 that Open Source Securities research indicated that after the market breakout, although divergences still exist, there is an optimistic judgment on the long-term breakthrough of the index, with a pattern resembling a "slowly rising oscillating market around the center." One should operate with a "bull market mentality," but it is best to trade with the mindset of a "slowly rising oscillating market around the center," and it is not advisable to blindly chase the price in terms of trading and allocation. In terms of style, growth zones are favored, as growth is more likely to outperform when market risk appetite is high. Current allocation recommendations: Technology + Military Industry + Finance + DeltaG Consumption + Stable Dividends + Gold.

Yili Hua stated on social media that the market has entered a long bull run, and stablecoins and Blockchain are a great opportunity for the globalization of the US dollar. He mentioned that the coin-stock model brings innovation to the market, and mainstream tokens will seize this opportunity to rise, advising investors to avoid shorting.

ChainCatcher news, CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju stated that the cycle theory of "buying when the Whale is accumulating and selling when the retail investor is getting on board" is no longer applicable. In previous cycles, Whales would sell their chips to retail investors, but now it is the old Whales selling to new long-term Whales, with institutional participation far exceeding expectations, and the number of holders surpassing that of traders. Ki Young Ju apologized for the previous misjudgment regarding the "end of the bull market cycle" and stated that he will be more cautious in the future, focusing on data-driven analysis.

According to ChainCatcher news and posts on social media, Jack Yi, the founder of LD Capital, stated, "ETH is strongly nearing the end of its consolidation phase. Originally, this was a huge resistance level, with many OGs collectively at breakeven. In a bull run trend, regardless of any unfavourable information, do not short and try to avoid shorting as much as possible. Stick to the principle of trend investing."

BlockBeats news, on July 24, former Ethereum core developer Eric Conner stated that "the logic behind the rise of Ethereum (ETH) in the coming years does not actually depend on the adoption by treasury companies. The real bull run logic lies in the global proliferation of stablecoins. People around the world are eager to gain exposure to the US dollar, and this demand will exhibit explosive growth. In this process, billions of people may thus come into contact with and recognize Ethereum."

BlockBeats news, on July 23, according to Cointelegraph, Samson Mow, the CEO of Bitcoin technology company Jan3, stated that the real bull run has not even started yet and believes that Bitcoin is expected to rise to between $500,000 and $1,000,000 within the next 12 months.

According to Jinse Finance, institutional demand has kept Bitcoin at a high of around $118,500, while Ether has risen to $3,761. Analysts point out that Bitcoin's dominance is decreasing, but the bull run is mainly driven by institutions, and the expansion of the altcoin market remains uncertain.

Odaily News Presto Research analyst Min Jung stated that Bitcoin continues to hover near historical highs supported by ongoing institutional demand, particularly from crypto asset management firms. The price of ETH is also benefiting from institutional investor momentum, with an increasing number of publicly listed companies beginning to incorporate ETH into their corporate treasuries. The market is showing early signs of a strong season for alts, but it remains uncertain whether this momentum will extend to the broader altcoin market. (The Block)

Odaily News LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated: "ETH has broken 3700. The weakness of the past few years has made everyone forget the bull runs of 2017 and 2020. ETH has significantly outperformed BTC, and we continue to believe that ETH will outperform BTC in this round, which has already been validated. Do not short during a bull run; at the very least, holding ETH will ensure you don't miss this market opportunity."

Odaily News LD Capital founder Yi Lihua stated: "There has always been a cyclical rise pattern in the crypto world bull run, where BTC and ETH peak first, followed by mainstream mid-cap coins like XRP, LTC, UNI, and finally various strong alts. Making efforts to invest in the right varieties to seek returns will outperform the market."

Gate News bot message, Yi Lihua, founder of LD Capital, expressed his views on social media. He pointed out that due to multiple factors such as the impact of CPI data on interest rate cut expectations, trends in the US stock market, escalating geopolitical risks, and the temporary obstruction of encryption legislation, the current macroeconomic outlook is unclear. Yili Hua stated that, given that ETH has reached the expected increase, it is advisable to be cautious at the peak. From the perspective of investment and trading volume, he suggests a temporary adjustment and to make decisions after the situation becomes clearer. Nevertheless, Yili Hua emphasized that the long-term bullish trend remains unchanged.

Bernstein analysts expect the Crypto Assets bull run to continue until 2026, driven mainly by institutional adoption rather than retail investors chasing high prices. Analysts are highly confident in Blockchain and digital assets, predicting that BTC will reach $200,000 by the end of 2025 or early 2026.

Introduction [BTC] The price of Bitcoin has once again stirred waves. With Bitcoin breaking through the $120,000 mark, we have observed the allure of price prediction analysis. From the price trends of Bitcoin in 2024 to predictions of its future value, various investment analyses reveal the complex relationship between Bitcoin's bull and bear market cycles and the factors influencing its price. Whether it’s the influx of institutional capital or the underlying momentum of the halving events, this article will detail the guiding role of these key elements in Bitcoin investment. Unveiling the driving forces behind Bitcoin's price reaching $120,000 Bitcoin price hits a new high, reaching over $120,000 as of July 14, 2025, at $121,615.80. This historic breakthrough is driven by multiple factors. First, institutional investors continue to increase their allocation to Bitcoin, providing strong buying support for it. Second, the Bitcoin ETF's

Odaily News Zhusu stated on social media that the real bull run has not even started yet, and it will only be truly initiated when Ethereum hits a new all-time high.

Bitcoin prices have strongly broken through historical highs, easily standing at $122,000, with a market capitalization exceeding $2.4 trillion, surpassing e-commerce giant Amazon. Analysts say it has entered a "banana zone" parabolic bull run phase driven by strong demand, liquidity, and a sudden breakthrough. The momentum for the breakout stems from continuous capital inflows into the Spot Bitcoin ETF, a wave of corporate capital purchases, and expectations of interest rate cuts. The derivatives market is filled with bullish sentiment, with nearly $900 million in Options betting that it will reach $140,000 by September. Last week, the Spot Bitcoin ETF recorded a massive inflow of $2.7 billion (including over $1 billion on two separate days). In the past 24 hours, shorts were severely hit, with over $600 million in short orders being liquidated.

Bitcoin (BTC) soared to an all-time high today, driving a widespread rally in the crypto market. However, behind the market euphoria lies significant differentiation: on one hand, long-term holders (like Satoshi Nakamoto) saw their wealth surge, landing them on the global rich list; on the other hand, high-leverage short positions traders suffered heavy losses. Hyperliquid whale trader Qwatio faced a massive liquidation of his $334 million position in just three hours due to aggressive shorting during the bull run, resulting in a staggering $25.8 million loss, almost wiping out previous profits. This incident mirrors the recent devastating loss of another well-known trader, James Wynn, highlighting the extreme risks of crypto margin trading in one-sided markets. Meanwhile, long positions trader Aguila Trades successfully returned to profitability, earning $2.3 million. The market's intense fluctuations have reignited a core debate: in crypto investments, which is superior, high-leverage short-term trading or the patient holding (HODL) strategy? How should Russian crypto traders choose?

Ethereum has successfully broken through $3,000 recently, attracting market attention once again. According to Technical Analyst Merlijn's analysis, the next target price after the breakout could reach $3,834, based on the bull run flag breakout and the previous falling wedge reversal pattern. At the same time, the strong interest from institutional investors, especially the inflow of funds into the Spot Ethereum ETF, provides support for the price rise. According to on-chain data, about 80% of Ethereum has entered a profit state, indicating optimistic market sentiment, which may reduce selling pressure and push prices to continue rising. It is expected that Ethereum will continue to maintain strength in the coming time, moving towards higher price targets.

Recently, the performance of various alts has exceeded that of Bitcoin, reaching new highs. Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a 2% decline in its dominant position, indicating that funds are slightly shifting from BTC to alts. However, a larger-scale transition may be on the horizon.

Bitcoin has entered a brief consolidation after reaching a historical high of USD, currently trading around 119,216.7 USD. Analyst RLinda points out two key scenarios: if it breaks below the support level of 117,500 USD, it may trigger a chain pullback, targeting 115,500 USD, 114,300 USD, or even the previous high of 111,800 USD; on the contrary, if the daily chart closes strongly above 118,400 USD and 118,900 USD, it is expected to initiate a new round of pump towards 125,000 USD. Glassnode on-chain data shows that the net unrealized PNL (NUPL) indicator for long-term holders is 0.69, significantly below the market euphoria threshold of 0.75, indicating that the current bull run is not yet overheated, and the profit-taking pressure on long-term holders is relatively low, with still potential upside compared to the previous bull run cycle.

Bitcoin (BTC) has broken through the $119,000 mark, driving the total market capitalization of the entire encryption market to a record $3.8 trillion. This historic breakthrough has led to a rapid increase in various crypto assets, including altcoins such as Stellar (XLM), Mog Coin (MOG), Story (IP), and Hedera (HBAR). However, with the U.S. set to release inflation data, the earnings season officially kicking off, and Congress preparing for a legislative activity dubbed "Cryptocurrency Week," this bull run may continue to gain momentum or may face some volatility. This article will explore the four major catalysts that could influence Bitcoin and altcoins this week.

This article will explore four major catalysts that could impact Bitcoin and alts this week.

Golden Finance reports that Google Trends data shows that despite prices reaching an all-time high, public interest in Bitcoin searches is far lower than during the bull runs of 2017 and 2021. Analysts believe that the six-figure price tag may deter potential investors, even though Bitcoin's divisibility allows for small-scale participation.

When gold supporter Debra Robinson mocked, "Imagine spending $118,000 to buy a set of artificial digits," she responded to a common skepticism among precious metal enthusiasts. However, as Bitcoin prices continue to reach new highs and gradually secure a place in the global financial system, the debate over the store of value between "digital gold" and "physical gold" is becoming increasingly thought-provoking. Respected macro analyst and Bitcoin bull Lyn Alden offered pragmatic advice: precious metal enthusiasts could purchase a Bitcoin position equivalent to 5% of their precious metal holdings. This is not only a hedging of risks but also a wise positioning for future trends.

FTX recently unstaked approximately $31 million worth of Solana (SOL), raising concerns in the market about potential selling pressure. Although some analysts believe this is just a routine operation and that Solana's network is performing strongly enough to absorb more supply, this action could still lead to short-term price fluctuations in the current bull run. In the future, whether FTX will use the unlocked SOL for other investments or dumping will be key for market follow.

On July 11, 2025, Bitcoin broke the new high of $118,399, ushering in a new round of pump. Unlike past bull runs, this surge appears to be more robust, with no signs of excessive speculation in the market. The MVRV ratio is below overheated levels, short-term holders are decreasing, and miners are no longer selling frequently, indicating a healthier structure in the Bitcoin market. Moreover, retail investors have not yet entered the market en masse, which may suggest that the top for Bitcoin is still far from being reached. Analysts will focus on $106,500 and $101,200 as short-term support levels, expecting Bitcoin to have greater upside potential.

Charles Hoskinson reiterated that he expects the price of Bitcoin (BTC) to rise to $250,000 within the next 12 to 24 months, driving the market capitalization close to $5 trillion. With the advancement of the GENIUS stablecoin bill and the CLARITY bill, the U.S. crypto market will welcome new regulatory clarity, which will further drive institutional investors into the crypto market, bringing the next wave of Bitcoin big pump. Key figures in the crypto industry are optimistic about the passage of these bills, believing that they will provide crucial support for the maturation of the crypto market.

The Bitcoin bull market model is undergoing a huge change! Prices are soaring, but volatility continues to decrease, aligning more closely with the traditional financial market under institutional dominance. This article details the reasons behind the end of the positive correlation between Bitcoin Volatility (BVIV/DVOL) and price, explores options strategies (such as covered call options), miner hedging, the impact of ETFs, and how macro factors suppress volatility. It also analyzes the "slow bull" characteristics and potential risks in the maturing market after the BTC Halving.

Bonk (BONK), Dogifwhat (WIF), and Floki (FLOKI) are gaining bullish momentum, and after the weekly Rebound reaching key resistance level, they are expected to rise further. Bitcoin (BTC) dominance has fallen below 65%, and meme coins are most likely to become the frontrunners in the next bull run.
