XRP Price Prediction: Can Korean Demand Trigger XRP’s Next Breakout?

$XRP

XRP is trading around $1.09 with little price change over the past 24 hours, but the prediction worth watching is not from the chart. It is in the premium spread. Korean exchanges are discounting Bitcoin more heavily than XRP, a subtle but telling divergence. When Korean traders hold one coin tighter, it often hints at stronger local conviction. That gap could matter more than the next flashy candle.

Over the past 48 hours, crypto markets have been trapped in a narrow range. Bitcoin hovers around the mid $64,000 area, while Asian altcoin activity has remained surprisingly lively despite the lack of a clear trend. South Korean exchanges, long known for driving retail momentum, continue showing stronger relative demand for XRP than for Bitcoin.

The DAT Model Under Scrutiny

#SatsumaTechnology

Satsuma’s collapse is the most visible failure yet of the DAT, a digital asset treasury structure that proliferated across UK small-caps in 2025.

These companies, modeled loosely on MicroStrategy’s approach, give equity investors indirect exposure to Bitcoin while bolting on a thin operating business to satisfy UK listing rules on alternative investment fund classification.

The structure works when Bitcoin price momentum and equity premiums reinforce each other; it unravels quickly when both reverse simultaneously, as the convertible note obligations create a sell-to-survive dynamic at exactly the wrong point in the cycle.

The broader regulatory environment for UK crypto companies adds another layer of structural pressure that pure-play listed treasuries are poorly positioned to absorb.

The wind-down proceeds through a “B Share Scheme,” a UK legal mechanism for distributing cash assets back to shareholders. Estimated termination costs run to £2.7M: legal fees, severance, delisting charges, and run-off insurance.

Combined with the £40M recovered from December’s BTC sale, the total capital returned is roughly £66–70M, against the £163.6M raised.

Critically, convertible noteholders rank above common equity in the payout waterfall, so ordinary shareholders may receive considerably less than even those aggregated figures suggest.

Satsuma was the second-largest UK-listed Bitcoin treasury company by holdings at the time of the vote. The Smarter Web Company, holding 2,878 BTC, currently sits at the top of that ranking and has not indicated any plans to wind down, though Satsuma’s outcome will sharpen investor focus on the NAV-to-market-cap gap across all remaining UK crypto treasury vehicles.

The contrast with Michael Saylor’s approach, maintaining Bitcoin conviction through drawdowns rather than liquidating under shareholder pressure, is a live debate in the corporate Bitcoin treasury space right now.

Bitcoin News Today: From £163M Raise to Fractional Recovery
$BTC

Satsuma started life as TAO Alpha, a small AI firm, before rebranding and pivoting to a Bitcoin treasury accumulation strategy. In August 2025, it hired Mark Moss, an American Bitcoin commentator with over 700,000 YouTube subscribers, as Chief Bitcoin Strategist.

The firm then raised £163.6M through convertible notes led by ParaFi Capital, with Pantera Capital, Digital Currency Group, and Kraken participating. Some investors contributed 1,097 BTC directly in place of roughly $97M in cash.

The stock peaked around £14 per share in June 2025. Bitcoin reached its $126,000 all-time high in October before sliding into the current crypto winter, dragging Satsuma’s share price with it.
By December 2025, the company was already liquidating assets to stay solvent, selling 579 BTC for £40M to repay noteholders who declined to convert their debt into equity.

Bitcoin News: BTC Treasury Strategy Casualty as Satsuma Technology Votes to Wind Down

$BTC

In Bitcoin news today, shareholders of Satsuma Technology voted by more than 90% on Monday to sell the company’s remaining 668 BTC, worth roughly $43.5M at current prices, and to cancel its LSE delisting, overruling four of six board members and formally ending a Bitcoin treasury experiment that lasted less than 12 months.

The decision crystallizes one of the sharper destructions of investor capital in the UK crypto space: against the £163.6M raised in August 2025, shareholders now expect to recover between £26.8M and £30M after wind-down costs, less than 20 pence on the pound.

This latest Bitcoin Treasury firm news dropped as BTC climbed a modest +0.4% overnight, dropping under $66,000 since yesterday but still trading at $65,700, with a daily trading volume of $31.8Bn.

TradFi Momentum Lifts MEXC to No. 2 in Commodity Perpetuals

TradFi perpetuals became a key growth driver for MEXC in Q2 2026, as the segment emerged as the industry's fastest-growing product category. MEXC's TradFi perpetuals trading volume reached $68.8 billion, giving it a 10.85% market share and a fourth-place global ranking. Within MEXC's own platform, TradFi perpetuals accounted for 7.22% of total derivatives volume, the third-highest such proportion among major centralized exchanges.

Commodities stood out as the strongest-performing segment within MEXC's TradFi perpetuals business. MEXC's market share in commodity perpetuals — including gold, silver, and crude oil — rose from 10.6% to 14.7% in Q2, a gain of 4.1 percentage points. This was the largest increase among all exchanges tracked in the report. The gain brought MEXC to the No. 2 position globally in commodity perpetuals market share.

Annamite Capital Announces Institutional Bitcoin Treasury Management Platform

$BTC

Firm offers bespoke managed account solutions to help institutions generate BTC-denominated returns while preserving ownership, custody and institutional governance. As digital asset treasury companies have successfully acquired Bitcoin, the focus has evolved to improving yield generation on these assets.

LONDON, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Annamite Capital, the institutional digital asset investment manager founded by Tom Geary and Lucas Gaylord, has announced the launch of its institutional treasury management platform, designed to help publicly traded Bitcoin holders transform dormant treasury holdings into productive assets, while maintaining institutional standards for custody and risk management.

As public and private companies continue to adopt Bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset, many organizations face a common challenge: how to diversify returns on balance-sheet Bitcoin holdings while maintaining prudent risk and governance controls.

Annamite's Bitcoin Treasury Management platform addresses this need through customized Separately Managed Accounts (SMAs), where clients retain ownership of their Bitcoin, while gaining exposure to Annamite's multi-manager, multi-strategy Bitcoin yield program.

Hier ist, was Grok AI für die nahe Zukunft von LiquidChain vorhersagt

$XRP

Jeder Zyklus hat einen Moment, in dem Warten zur teuersten Entscheidung wird, die man treffen kann. Dieser Moment ist jetzt.

Bitcoin, Ethereum und XRP sind alle unter demselben Widerstand festgenagelt, den sie seit Wochen testen. Der makroökonomische Durchbruch ist nur einen einzigen Datenpunkt entfernt. Das institutionelle Geld wird auch im nächsten Quartal weiter ankommen. Große Kapitalanleger, die auf einen Ausbruch warten, stellen sich für eine Entscheidung an, die jemand ganz anderem gehört.

Grok AI hat erkannt, worauf erfahrene Zyklus-Trader bereits reagieren. Kapital, das sich bei der Marktkapitalisierung von Bitcoin als statistisches Hintergrundrauschen tarnt, kann eine kleine, bislang unentdeckte Projektlage vollständig neu bewerten.

Die Asymmetrie ist nicht kompliziert. Sie liegt in der Distanz zwischen dem, was etwas wirklich wert ist, und dem, was der Markt ihm derzeit zugeschrieben hat. Sobald dieser Abstand wahrgenommen wird, bricht er zusammen. Vor diesem Moment ist alles völlig offen.

XRP-Preisprognose: Hat sechs Monate lang in einer schrumpfenden Spanne gehandelt, und Grok will den obersten Bruch

$XRP

Der Chart erzählt eine ruhigere Geschichte als die Prognose. XRP schloss bei 1,08468 $, minus 0,14 %, in einer Sitzung mit einer Spanne zwischen 1,07840 und 1,09495 $.

Zoomt man von Februar zurück, ist das kein Abwärtstrend mehr; es ist eine abklingende Range. Der Februar-Crash von über 2,30 $ hinunter Richtung 1,20 $ war der heftige Teil, und alles seitdem war eine Abfolge niedrigerer Hochs innerhalb einer sich langsam verengenden Box.

April endete nahe 1,55. Mai endete erneut nahe 1,55. Der Bounce im Juli endete nahe 1,20 und kippte bereits wieder nach unten.

Elon Musk Grok AI Predicts XRP Will Do This by Next 30 Days, and Nobody Is Ready

$XRP

Thirty days is a short window to ask for anything, which makes Grok AI predicts that XRP is almost restrained by comparison to the usual end-of-year moonshots. From $1.08, it wants $1.25 to $1.35 by mid August.

The setup leans on five things happening together rather than one big catalyst. Spot ETF inflows keep showing up. Ripple’s full MiCA license opens the door to regulated European expansion.

XRPL network activity is surging in the background. Whales are accumulating instead of distributing. Exchange balances are dropping as coins move into cold storage.

Grok also points to something almost calendar-based. July has historically been a strong month for XRP, and that seasonal pattern is landing right on top of a market that just deleveraged hard.

The $1.00 to $1.05 zone has held firm through that deleveraging, which Grok reads as buyers defending a line rather than just drifting sideways. Clear resistance at $1.18 to $1.22, and Grok sees a confident push toward $1.25 to $1.40, with $1.30 to $1.35 as the realistic high if momentum and any regulatory tailwind cooperate.

The bear case stays narrow here, too. Broader market weakness or delays to the CLARITY Act could cap gains and force consolidation, with a retest of $0.95 to $1.00 support if the round number breaks.

Grok’s own base scenario without fresh catalysts is a flat $0.95 to $1.10, basically where XRP sits right now. The whole prediction hinges on new news arriving, not on existing momentum carrying itself.

Robinhood Chain Booming, Bernstein Puts Higher Target on HOOD

$HOOD

Bernstein just raised its price target on Robinhood stock to $160, and the key driver is not crypto trading volume. Instead, the firm sees long-term value in Robinhood’s blockchain infrastructure. Robinhood Wrapped ETH on Robinhood Chain has gained about 2% over the past week, while daily trading volume sits near $44 million. Those numbers suggest the network is attracting steady activity rather than short-lived hype.

Bernstein analysts, led by Gautam Chhugani, lifted their HOOD target from $130 to $160, based on a 2028 EPS estimate of $4.56 and a 35x forward P/E multiple. The firm expects prediction markets, perpetual futures, and Robinhood Chain to generate 18% of total revenue by 2027, rising to 23% in 2028. Prediction markets alone could contribute $1.7 billion by 2028.

Bitcoin-Hyper-Ziele für einen frühen Einstieg, während XRP kritische Niveaus testet

$XRP
XRP bei 1,13 $ ist eine bessere Position als Schwartzs Ausstieg bei 0,10 $, aber bei einer Marktkapitalisierung von 70 Milliarden $+ gibt es die Asymmetrie, die in echten frühen Phasen verfügbar ist, schlicht nicht mehr.

Das ist der strukturelle Trade-off, den jeder Händler, der rotierende Strategien fährt, abwägen muss, wenn ein Asset Widerstand zurückerobert statt in die Entdeckung überzugehen.

Die Frage ist nicht, ob XRP höher gehen kann; sondern ob das Chance-Risiko-Verhältnis bei den aktuellen Preisen dem entspricht, was frühe Teilnehmer erfasst haben.

Bitcoin Hyper positioniert sich in einem ganz anderen Bereich des Risiko-Spektrums. Das Projekt baut die erste Bitcoin-Layer-2 mit vollständiger SVM-Integration – das bedeutet smart-contractfähige Ausführung auf Niveau der Solana Virtual Machine, die am Sicherheitsmodell von Bitcoin verankert ist. Ziel ist Performance, die mit Solanas Durchsatz konkurriert, während gleichzeitig die Vertrauensebene von BTC erhalten bleibt.

Die Presale hat 32,9 Millionen $ aufgebracht bei einem aktuellen Token-Preis von 0,0136834 $, und es läuft bereits ein Staking-Programm für Teilnehmer. Diese Kombination aus Infrastruktur-Nutzen und frühem Preis ist die Grundlage, die Schwartz als fehlend beschrieben hatte – nur dass sie jetzt verfügbar ist, nicht erst im Nachhinein.

David Schwartz Regrets Selling XRP at 10 Cents as Price Broke $1.10 Resistance

$XRP

Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz just reminded the market why conviction is the hardest edge to hold. XRP price is trading around $1.12, up about 1% over the past 24 hours after reclaiming the $1.10 level. That move has shifted momentum back toward the bulls, making the timing of Schwartz’s admission hit a little closer to home.

In yesterday’s post on X, Schwartz confirmed he sold XRP at $0.10 and unloaded 40,000 ETH at roughly $1.05 each. Those decisions came from a risk reduction agreement with his wife, not from losing faith in either asset. As every trader eventually learns, your portfolio rarely argues with your spouse and wins.

Born2trade Rolls Out Prediction Markets on Match-Trader Platform

Born2trade added Prediction Markets to its trading platform this week, the CFD broker said, giving clients access to event-driven contracts alongside its existing forex and CFD lineup.

The add-on module runs on Match-Trader, built by Match-Trade Technologies, and keeps both product lines under one login and account balance.

Born2trade set the same goal in May, when it acquired the domain Predictory.com and said it planned to launch prediction markets within the first half of 2026. That window closed before this week's rollout arrived, and the press release does not mention Predictory.com or say whether the domain factors into the new module.

BTC/USD: Bitcoin Tops $66,000 as Upside Move Gains Steam, Cracks Resistance

⛽ Liquidation Fuel Ahead

The $66,000 level isn't only a psychological milestone. It's also packed with leveraged short positions.

According to CoinGlass, a sustained move above it could trigger roughly $523 million in short liquidations, forcing bearish traders to buy back Bitcoin and potentially accelerating the rally.

The flip side remains just as important. If Bitcoin slips back below $63,000, about $658 million worth of leveraged long positions would come under pressure.

That's the cruel math of leverage in reverse: when trades unwind, price moves can snowball in either direction.

Morph Launches Tachyon, a High-Performance Layer 1 Purpose-Built for Onchain Trading

UK parliamentary group probes banking barriers for crypto firms

A United Kingdom parliamentary group has launched an inquiry into whether crypto businesses and consumers face barriers to banking services, including account access and restrictions on crypto-related transactions.

On Monday, the Crypto and Digital Assets All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) said that it would examine how the restrictions affect investment, competition and economic growth. The group said it would assess whether the restrictions are proportionate.

Written submissions from banks, payment providers, crypto firms and other stakeholders are open until Aug. 31, after which the group plans to publish its findings and recommendations.

CoinShares launches UCITS platform targeting Europe’s institutional investors

Crypto asset manager CoinShares is expanding into Europe's €26.3 trillion ($30 trillion) UCITS ecosystem by unveiling a new platform alongside the launch of the CoinShares Bitcoin Mining UCITS ETF.

In a statement released Tuesday, CoinShares said the new platform positions the firm to target major institutional investors across Europe, including pension funds, insurers, and private banks.

CoinShares said that the primary barrier to greater investment was the product wrapper, and many of these investors' mandates prevented holdings in debt securities — even those that are physically backed.

"The UCITS platform removes that constraint, allowing CoinShares to serve those same investors, and the far larger pool of capital behind them, in the format their mandates already accommodate," the company said in the statement.

White House Reportedly Backs Trump Ethics Language As CLARITY Act Push Enters The Final Stretch

White House Reportedly Agrees To Ethics Package
The development was first reported by Journalist Eleanor Terrett, who said on Monday that she was "hearing from multiple industry sources" that the White House had agreed on an “ethics package” and sent the language to certain Senate Republicans that afternoon.

Although the details of the deal are not yet known, Terrett said that industry participants hope the development will help clear the way for updated bill text, which is due for release soon. According to a report by Gateway Pundit, Moreno said that the Department of Justice would be responsible for enforcing the ethics provision of the bill, not state attorneys. Moreno also said he expects the Act to pass before Patrick Witt leaves the White House this month.

Bitcoin needs $1 trillion for its next bull run

In 2011, $2.7 billion of inflows sent Bitcoin up more than 55,000%. This cycle, $697 billion produced 689%. A leading analyst says the math has changed so much that the next parabolic run needs a trillion dollars. Here is the case, and the case against.

Bitcoin just posted the worst month in the history of its exchange-traded funds, bounced modestly into July, and is trading more than 50% below its October 2025 record. Into that gloom, one of the most-watched analysts in crypto dropped a statistic that reframes the entire debate about where Bitcoin goes next.

On July 1, CryptoQuant chief executive Ki Young Ju laid out the numbers behind a claim that is now spreading fast: Bitcoin’s next parabolic bull run may require it to absorb more than $1 trillion of fresh capital. That is not a price target; it is a statement about how much harder it now is to move Bitcoin at all.

This piece breaks down the number behind the claim, what Ju is really arguing, and the serious case on both sides of whether a trillion-dollar bull run is a bullish invitation or a bearish warning.

is that true what you think about this?
