The US Treasury plans to regularly repurchase long-term Treasury bonds and may increase the volume of operations.

Brian Armstrong gave an interview to American press.
In it, he stated that the bear market is close to ending, and that Bitcoin will show strong growth in the coming years.
He is also confident about the passage of the CLARITY Act.
The crypto market is on the verge of the next bull rally; Bitcoin could break through the $100,000 level by the end of 2026 and surpass the $400,000 mark by 2030. The CEO of the Coinbase exchange, Brian Armstrong, shared this view in an interview with Fox Business.

When the host asked whether Bitcoin’s rise on August 19–20 is very likely connected with the approval of a framework bill for the structure of the crypto market (CLARITY Act), Armstrong answered yes:

“Yes, I think that’s exactly right. […] In my opinion, we are right at the very beginning of the next bull cycle in the crypto market.” $NVDAB #BitcoinBestWeekSinceMarch2023

In Germany, a number of politicians are calling for the closure of the “Russian House”

Several German politicians have backed calls to shut down the “Russian House” in Berlin, as it is linked to espionage activities. A debate is unfolding in Germany over allegations that the “Russian House” in Berlin is engaged in unlawful activity.

Politicians from the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), the “Alliance 90/The Greens” and the Free Democratic Party (FDP) insist on closing this facility. “A hub stuffed with intelligence equipment” Yes, Bundestag MP and CDU foreign affairs expert Roderich Kiesewetter is convinced that the “Russian House” is used as a spying center.

Nansen founder named the price below which Bitcoin will no longer fall.
According to him, the asset will no longer see $60,000, and in the future it even has prospects of reaching a value of $1 million.
He explained his forecast by the role of the first cryptocurrency in protecting against money devaluation.$AAPLB #BTCPayServerExploitDrainsLightningNodes

Briefly: I see cryptocurrency in the future, but not all of it.
Bitcoin — will most likely remain the main digital asset.
Ethereum — has good prospects thanks to its ecosystem.
BNB — an interesting option because of the Binance ecosystem and the ability to participate in Launchpool/HODLer.
Many small tokens, in my opinion, will disappear or lose a lot of value.
Volatility will remain high: you can make a big profit, but you can also lose a lot.$NVDAB $AMZNB $MSFTB

Cybersecurity researcher and CTO of Kumio, Vangelis Stikas, reported at the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas the results of an almost two-year study of the infrastructure used by North Korean hackers. According to him, over 22 months of observation he found that groups linked to the DPRK compromised 1,640 companies in 57 countries, and around 700–800 organizations suffered critical breaches, WIRED reports.

The hackers paid particular attention to cryptocurrency companies, trying to gain access to private keys, blockchain infrastructure, and crypto wallets. New data indicates a much broader scope of the campaign than previously believed.$NVDAB $AAPLB

In the first six months of 2026, 46 physical attacks were recorded against participants in the cryptocurrency space, so-called wrench attacks. The total losses from them exceeded $30 million, according to a new report by Chainalysis.

For comparison, losses from similar incidents in 2025 amounted to $58 million. If the trend continues, this year will set a new anti-record in terms of losses. Moreover, this refers only to successful attacks.

If, however, we take into account all extortion attempts, ransom demands, and thefts where funds were frozen or returned, then total losses will be even higher — $316 million in 2024, $180 million in 2025, and $107 million since the beginning of 2026.

At the same time, the effectiveness of the attacks has declined — only 26% of violent abduction attempts (12 out of 46) led to the payment of a ransom, which is a decrease compared to 49% (47 out of 95) in 2025 and 67% (32 out of 48) in 2024. According to experts, this is due to the expansion of the attack vector, primarily in France. $MSFTB $NVDAB $TSMB #GoldBreaksOutFromJanuaryDowntrend

U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal have called on the Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Paul Atkins, to begin an investigation into the memecoin TRUMP.

In their view, the project may show signs of fraudulent schemes, and U.S. President Donald Trump and related parties could have earned unjustified profits at the expense of retail investors.

In their letter, lawmakers cite media reports stating that, from the token’s launch on January 17, 2025, through the end of June 2026, nearly 1 million investors lost more than $3.81 billion. At the same time, Donald Trump, according to the estimates provided, received about $636 million in income.

The cryptocurrency market shows signs of a bearish cycle nearing its end, despite tough macroeconomic conditions and continued uncertainty regarding U.S. monetary policy. This conclusion was reached by Wintermute analysts in their weekly market report.

In their view, the key feature of the past week was the relative resilience of digital assets amid events that traditionally exert strong pressure on risk instruments.
Experts noted that last week the market faced a number of negative factors at the same time: the U.S. Federal Reserve kept the interest rate unchanged, the yield on 30-year U.S. bonds reached its highest level in almost two decades, and a major artificial intelligence fund was forced to liquidate a significant portion of its assets.
Despite this, Bitcoin and Ethereum fell by less than 4% over the week. Wintermute believes this trend indicates the gradual exhaustion of selling pressure.$MSFTB $AMZNB

Strategy sold 1,638 BTC for $104.73 million.
Following the transaction, the company holds 842,138 BTC.
The proceeds from the sale of the bitcoins were directed to dividends and the repurchase of STRC.
Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) sold 1,638 BTC for $104.73 million between July 27 and August 2, 2026. The company allocated the proceeds to pay dividends on preferred shares and to buy back STRC shares.

According to the company’s report, Strategy sold 1,638 BTC at an average price of $63,957 per bitcoin. After the sale, 842,138 BTC remained on the company’s balance sheet, acquired in total for $63.51 billion. The average acquisition price for the entire portfolio is $75,419 per coin.

Nearly all of the bitcoin sale proceeds were used for two purposes:

$52.4 million — for dividends on preferred shares;
$52.3 million — for the repurchase of STRC shares.

In total, the company repurchased 912,143 shares of STRC for $81.2 million. The average calculated repurchase price was about $89.02 per share on a par value of $100, i.e., roughly an 11% discount.

The CEO of Atlas Capital, Reza Bandi, stated at the Proof of Talk conference in Paris that Bitcoin could drop by up to 70% over the next six months. However, he does anticipate that in the long run, the first cryptocurrency might surge to $500,000. This was reported by CoinDesk.

According to Bandi, who collaborates with renowned economist and Bitcoin critic Nouriel Roubini, the upcoming months could be challenging for the digital asset market.$BTC

The final trend is all about strengthening gold positions and a gradual shift away from the dollar infrastructure. Central banks are stacking up on the metal, while international settlements are seeing alternatives like using cryptocurrencies to pay fees in strategically important logistics hubs. Meanwhile, Bitcoin hasn’t yet shown the expected correlation with gold as a safe haven asset.

AI mining and the transformation of Bitcoin
The third trend is linked to the rising demand for computing power for AI, which has created competition for traditional mining. Since the start of the year, the average 30-day hashrate has dropped by 8.8%, while the difficulty has decreased by 7.8%.$XRP $SOL $OG

Integration with TradFi and token holder rights
The first trend specialists identified is the accelerated convergence of the digital asset industry with traditional finance. This has been fueled by the emergence of options on spot Bitcoin ETPs and progress in asset tokenization from major banks.

The regulatory environment has also become clearer thanks to joint directives from the SEC and CFTC, as well as the advancement of the CLARITY Act bill.

The second direction has been a stronger emphasis on the rights of token holders. Projects like Hyperliquid and Aave are actively implementing buyback mechanisms and revenue redistribution.

However, analysts noted that the market has yet to establish a "rights premium"—investors are still assessing the sustainability of such models.
