UNITREE (Pre-IPO) leads the new perp listings alongside NCLD, GFS, SMIC, DDOG and GILD adding pre-IPO robotics into a USDT-margined perp setup gives unique positioning for upcoming public listing Noticed open interest building on BingX as traders lock in entries. Switching gears to layer-1s, 🔴 $TRX is showing a mildly bullish trend, up 2.77% over the past week while holding around key support Strong stablecoin activity on Tron continues to support the narrative, while declining open interest suggests spot demand is driving the move rather than leverage A sustained break above $0.3373 would strengthen the bullish setup
🔥 Ethereum is sitting right under the level that could send it back above $2,000
While ETH keeps chopping around $1,900, buyers are quietly building higher lows. And with $BTC still holding its range, Ethereum now has one clear level that could decide the next move.
That level is $1,945. Break above it, and short liquidations between $1,920 and $1,950 could add fuel to a push toward $2,000.
But if 🪙 $ETH gets rejected again, the setup changes fast. The next downside zone sits around $1,875-$1,885, where long liquidation liquidity is waiting.
For now, the structure still leans bullish - but only as long as those higher lows keep holding.
Hyperliquid is doing what most tokens can’t right now — quietly outperforming while the rest of the market drifts.
$HYPE up 0.76% to $57.25, holding its ground while Bitcoin sits slightly red. The move isn’t explosive, but it’s deliberate. The primary catalyst is clear. Multicoin Capital’s $100M+ investment in HYPE, reported a couple of days ago, is the kind of capital that doesn’t show up for narratives alone. It’s a vote for the protocol’s actual economic design: a fee-driven buyback engine that systematically reduces supply.
When a fund of that size is willing to take a large position, it tends to put a floor under price and change the conversation from “speculative L1/L2 token” to “cash-flowing infrastructure.” Secondary demand is also stacking up.
Real-world assets have been driving a meaningful share of new users. New yield products (like Monetrix vaults offering 5% APY on HYPE) are creating additional sinks. And the market is still pricing in the eventual distribution of the large reserved supply earmarked for community rewards. Utility and speculation are reinforcing each other instead of competing. Technically, the levels are straightforward. As long as HYPE holds above $55, the structure remains constructive. A clean break and hold above $58 would open the door toward the $63–65 zone. Lose $55 with conviction and the next support cluster comes into play.
The next concrete event on the calendar is the AQA v2 launch on August 26, which is expected to direct additional yield from protocol reserves into the HYPE Assistance Fund. That could add another layer of sustained demand if it lands cleanly.
The broader picture is simple: Hyperliquid is one of the few names currently combining real revenue mechanics, institutional validation, and expanding product usage at the same time. That combination is rare in this market. Whether it can convert this into a sustained move higher will depend on holding the $55–58 range and delivering on the upcoming product updates.
$BTC doesn’t have enough liquidity on both sides in the longer timeframe, that’s why it’s just ranging. On the downside there’s no real reason for it to go below $61k, and the same applies to $67k on the upside.
From my point of view Bitcoin may drop first to take that $5 billion worth of liquidity, then head higher.
Goldman Sachs has acquired NEOS Investments in a $2.25B deal, adding roughly $1B in $BTC ETF exposure to its growing investment footprint. This is more than an acquisition. It shows how traditional finance is increasingly building direct exposure to Bitcoin through regulated investment products.
Gen Z turned out to be more long-term $BTC investors than older generations
A Binance Research study found that Gen Z trades less frequently, accumulates assets more actively, and uses leverage more cautiously than commonly assumed.
In bStocks, 76% of Gen Z accounts were net accumulators, the highest rate among all generations. In traditional stocks, that figure reached 77%, while 22% of Gen Z accounts only bought assets and never sold them.
The researchers note that these results challenge the common perception of young investors as primarily short-term, high-risk traders.
🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows roughly 12–13 million in long liquidations below the current price, exceeding approximately 9 million in short liquidations above. However, the nearest meaningful liquidity cluster sits closer on the upside, giving an initial short-sweep scenario a modest near-term edge.
📈 Above the market, short-liquidation density begins increasing around 0.3375 and becomes significantly stronger across 0.3403–0.3459. The most prominent cluster sits near 0.3403–0.3431. Holding above 0.3375 would increase the probability of an extension toward 0.3403–0.3431.
📉 Below the market, the nearest long-liquidation zone is concentrated around 0.3295–0.3259, followed by heavier liquidity across 0.3231–0.3203. The strongest downside cluster sits around 0.3203–0.3231. Losing 0.3295 would increase the probability of a sweep toward 0.3259–0.3231.
🧭 The higher-probability scenario is an initial test of 0.3375–0.3431 because the upside cluster is closer. A breakout could extend the short-liquidation sweep toward 0.3459, while rejection followed by a loss of 0.3295 would shift focus toward long-liquidation liquidity around 0.3259–0.3203.
1,690 BTC sold at $64,262. Cost basis $75,385. Loss of $11,123 per coin.
The proceeds: $108.6 million. The STRC repurchase: $108.6 million. Exact match. Zero discretion in that transaction.
Strategy also sold 6.59 million MSTR shares for $653 million in the same week. Stock slipped Monday.
Saylor no longer calls this a Bitcoin treasury company. The new name is Digital Credit Framework. That rebrand happened quietly and most people missed it.
A Bitcoin treasury company accumulates Bitcoin. A Digital Credit Framework services preferred stock obligations using Bitcoin as collateral and sells it when the structure requires it.
Wall Street has Canaccord at $224 and Raymond James at $800 on MSTR. They are buying the framework, not the Bitcoin thesis.
$BTC
Is the world's largest corporate Bitcoin holder now primarily a preferred stock management vehicle that happens to hold Bitcoin, or is September 8 when the original thesis comes back?
$PEPE still trapped under $0.0000310 resistance. ⚠️
Very flat PA on weekly basis. Neutral zone on daily (large kumo) - looks like ascending accumulation before a potential bull break toward 0.0000350 - 0.0000355.
Key support to hold for bull side: 0.00000260. All levels in chart.
🚨 $BTC IS AT A CRITICAL LEVEL — $70K OR $60K NEXT?
$BTC is holding near $65,000, and the 4H structure still looks bullish. If buyers protect the $64,500–$65,000 zone and price breaks above $65,338, the next strong move could target $68,000–$70,000.
If this support fails, BTC could quickly drop toward $60,000.
My current bias is bullish, but confirmation is important before entering. Investors should watch this zone closely.
Whale sentiment around 🟠 $BTC is quietly bullish 🔥
Whales aren’t dumping. They're accumulating, and strategically. Block just added 234 BTC (15.1M), bringing its treasury to 9,117 BTC. BlackRock’s IBIT pulled in 7,320 BTC this week alone, worth ~$478M. Meanwhile, institutions like BNY Mellon like BNY Mellon are deepening Bitcoin exposure via treasury vehicles.
Even amid noise, BIP-110 drama, Coldcard exploits, Senate delays, whales keep stacking. Notably, dormant wallets (some untouched since 2011) moved 50+ BTC last week, not panic selling, but long-held coins re-entering circulation, often into secure custody or ETFs.
ETF flows reinforce this: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $790M net inflows over 7 days, with BlackRock pulling $128M in a single day. That’s institutional capital voting with conviction, not speculation.
The fear-and-greed index sits at 39 (“fear”), yet whale behavior says otherwise, calm, deliberate, and deeply committed.
Iran Criticizes Trump’s “Theater Diplomacy” as Hormuz Disagreements Persist
🇮🇷 Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Iran’s parliament speaker and a key figure in the negotiation process, criticized President Donald Trump’s approach of combining military threats with calls for talks, describing it as repeated “theater diplomacy.”
🤝 The remarks came after Trump said a major attack had been called off and that the basic outlines of an agreement were taking shape. Tehran, however, has yet to signal that the two sides have significantly narrowed their differences over arrangements for the Strait of Hormuz.
🛢️ Oil prices remained higher as markets continued to price in supply risks, with Brent trading around $83 per barrel and WTI near $78.
📈 Until clear terms for reopening Hormuz are agreed, geopolitical risk premiums are likely to remain an important driver of oil prices in the near term.
