Bitcoin wallets holding at least 10,000 $BTC rose to a six-month high of 90, while smaller holders have been reducing their holdings, according to Santiment.

JUST IN: Trump Media increased its Bitcoin treasury to 14,139 $BTC by July 31, adding roughly 4,662 $BTC during July. The position was valued at ~$890.5M at quarter-end prices and is worth roughly $900M around current levels. The company says it funded part of the July accumulation by selling Bitcoin-related securities and rotating the proceeds directly into $BTC.

Ethereum and Solana continue to push on-chain activity forward, but the infrastructure supporting these ecosystems is just as interesting.

$DOS caught my attention because of its focus on bringing external data and computation to smart contracts across different networks.

While looking into the token, I also spotted
$DOS on BingX with a DOS/USDT perpetual futures market. Interesting to see it there, especially for anyone tracking older oracle projects.

Japan's bond market is flashing another major macro signal.

Japanese government bond yields continue to climb, with shorter-dated yields reaching levels not seen in decades as markets price in further policy normalization from the Bank of Japan. Rising yields generally reflect expectations of tighter monetary policy, persistent inflation, or growing concerns over fiscal conditions.

The key issue isn't just Japan, it's the global impact. Higher Japanese yields can encourage domestic investors to bring capital home, reducing demand for overseas assets and tightening global liquidity. That has the potential to affect equities, bonds, and risk assets, including crypto.

While rising yields don't automatically trigger market sell-offs, they are an important macro indicator. If Japan's bond market continues moving higher, investors will be watching closely to see whether it begins influencing global capital flows and broader risk sentiment in the months ahead.

PETER SCHIFF: "BITCOIN IS ANTI-GOLD"

Peter Schiff argues that the latest market structure is exposing an inverse relationship between the two assets, claiming "the more gold goes up, the more Bitcoin will go down."

The controversial part is bigger than another bearish $BTC call: Schiff is directly challenging Bitcoin's "digital gold" narrative by arguing that capital is choosing physical gold when monetary uncertainty rises.

That thesis now has a very simple test: if gold continues making highs while #BTC eventually breaks the divergence and rallies with it, Schiff's "anti-gold" argument starts falling apart.

Despite the current drop in the price of $BTC, the total Bitcoin holdings of whales are rising, which is a good sign.

It is a good sign because it indicates that whales are leveraging the lower price to accumulate BTC.

Standard Chartered Thinks Chainlink Could Reach $200 by 2030

Chainlink may be sitting near $8 today, but Standard Chartered sees a much bigger story ahead as tokenized assets move deeper into traditional finance.

The bank expects tokenized assets on public blockchains to grow from about $340B today to $4T by 2028. That could make Chainlink's data feeds, cross-chain infrastructure and settlement tools far more important to banks and financial markets.

Its forecast puts LINK at $41 in 2027, $82 in 2028, $133 in 2029 and $200 by 2030.

The idea is simple: if tokenization keeps expanding, Chainlink could become one of the key rails connecting blockchains with real-world finance. Even if $BTC drives the wider crypto cycle, LINK may have its own growth story.

#Bitcoin 's Power Law model remains structurally bullish, with $BTC consolidating in the upper-middle of its historical growth band.

The $425K target sits near the model's upper range, suggesting major upside if the long-term trend stays intact.

#Bitcoin ETF demand is heating up again.

US spot $BTC ETFs pulled in $853.5M across five straight sessions, their strongest weekly inflow streak since mid-April, with IBIT contributing $693M alone.

Institutional appetite is back.

$XRP hitting $10 isn't impossible, but it won't happen on hype alone.

A major crypto rally, stronger demand, and real adoption would likely be needed. The key question is whether XRP can turn momentum into sustained buying pressure.

Strategy Offloads Another 1,690 BTC: What's Michael Saylor Playing At?

Wall Street corporate treasury tactics are evolving rapidly, even as overall market focus remains firmly locked on $BTC. According to its latest SEC filing, Michael Saylor's Strategy sold 1,690 BTC for $108.6 million at an average price of $64,262 per coin, slightly trimming its massive reserve to 840,447 BTC.

Instead of stacking more coins, the company directed every single dollar from the sale into repurchasing 1.15 million STRC preferred shares to reduce its heavy dividend obligations. Simultaneously, Strategy raised $653.1 million by selling common stock, pumping its cash and dollar reserves to $4.65 billion.

The broader goal is to optimize the balance sheet and maximize "net Bitcoin per share" for common equity holders rather than blindly holding. The old "never sell" mantra has transformed into active, calculated treasury management.

Guess Who's Still Buying Bitcoin? Whales

Wallets holding more than 10,000 $BTC have added 46,420 BTC over the past 2 months the strongest accumulation from this group since mid-March. That really stands out because almost everyone else is doing the opposite; the contrast is pretty clear:

10,000+ BTC wallets -> +46,420 BTC
0.1-1 BTC wallets -> -9,700 BTC

In fact, the 10,000+ BTC caste is currently the only major wallet group showing net accumulation. Of course, these giants can be to institutions, ETFs, companies or individual whales so we don't know exactly who is buying.

But we do know one thing: if these large wallets keep absorbing supply while $BTC holds around $65K, they could become one of the strongest sources of spot demand in the market
#BTC Price Analysis# #Bitcoin Price Prediction: What is Bitcoins next move?#

$BTC spot ETFs just had their strongest week since April.

From August 3-7, US spot BTC ETFs recorded $854M in net inflows, while Ethereum ETFs added $245M, marking their fifth consecutive week of inflows. Solana, XRP and HYPE ETFs also saw net inflows, although much smaller.

The strong BTC ETF demand is helping keep
$BTC above $65K.

But there's a catch: Bitcoin's volatility has dropped sharply. On a bearish market, this kind of compression can sometimes precede another move lower.

So for now, ETF flows look bullish, but the price structure still needs confirmation.

A #BNBChain# memecoin called TUT just became the most-liquidated crypto asset on the market (in the past 24 hours) - after rallying more than 1,100% in 2 days

$TUT hit an ath near $0.29 yesterday (August 9), then reversed hard and is now trading about 42% below that peak:

- liquidations topped $42M
- futures volume hit $3.34B
- that's more than 23x its market cap!!!
- TUT accounted for roughly a quarter of all crypto liquidations

The funniest part is that TUT originally started as a tutorial token for showing people how to launch a coin on BNB Chain before turning into a memecoin

The tutorial esca lated quickly.. Total liquidations across the market reached $168.3M, with short positions making up $112.5M of that amount

What was your biggest-ever liquidation?

Bubblemaps surges 150% in 24 hrs

$BMT trading volume exploded above $327 million in 24 hours-more than 12 times its $26 million market cap. No fresh announcement currently explains the move.

Is this genuine momentum or a short-lived speculative rush?

Someone just opened a $50.9 MILLION $BTC short using 40x leverage.

That's an insanely aggressive bet against Bitcoin.

If BTC pumps instead, this position could get liquidated FAST.

🇬🇧 The UK could be preparing a new framework for tokenized gold

The FCA has reportedly held preliminary talks with major financial institutions about regulating tokenized gold and could announce a framework in the coming months.

The idea is bigger than just putting gold on-chain. The UK is exploring whether tokenized gold could be used as collateral in wholesale markets, including $BTC OTC derivatives.

This fits into the country's broader push to digitize financial markets and strengthen its position in global commodities trading.

And the timing is interesting: tokenized commodities already reached $4.87B in market cap by the end of July.

Gold may be one of the next major traditional assets to move deeper on-chain.
