Could Bitcoin’s position at the market summit be grinding to a halt? Following a remarkable start to July, the OG crypto seems to be losing its sector dominance to Ethereum, at least for the time being. Some within the crypto circles now suggest that a continuation of this trend could signal a temporary end to Bitcoin’s reign at the top of the market.

Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have become an emerging trend in recent years, providing investors with exposure to BTC without direct ownership. Large corporate bodies have joined this trend, with top companies like Michael Saylor-led Strategy leading the pack.  However, Bitcoin maximalist and media personality Max Keiser has urged caution among crypto participants who invest in the asset through centralized treasuries, explaining that these firms could become a target for governments in the future.

July 18, 2025, will remain a key date for the crypto ecosystem. XRP set a new historical record at $3.65, surpassing its 2018 high. However, beyond this spike, a shift in regulatory era is beginning. By signing the Genius Act, President Donald Trump sends a clear signal: the United States intends to frame, not hinder, crypto innovation. This political recognition has immediately catalyzed momentum around Ripple, placing XRP at the heart of the financial and institutional dynamics of the sector.

When Jack Dorsey injects Bitcoin into Wall Street, stock indices tremble... and the bankers, they sweat. Block, a crypto pioneer, enters the S&P 500. Just like that.

While Bitcoin was flirting with a new all-time high, the threshold of $123,000 abruptly halted its rise. This point of blockage, both technical and symbolic, surprised a market in search of benchmarks. Amid fractal resistances and signals of caution, the pullback is as intriguing as it fuels bets on what comes next. What does this failure really reveal?

The man behind Tesla and SpaceX wields tweets like market levers, oscillating between sarcasm, fascination, and caution. In October 2021, he urged not to "bet the farm" on cryptos. However, he later confessed to having acquired, "out of curiosity," Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin. Such a paradox raises a central question: Is Musk acting as a mere clear-sighted observer or as a fully engaged actor in an ecosystem he inadvertently helps to steer?

As of August 1, 2025, the rate of the Livret A will plunge to 1.7%, penalizing the 58 million French people who invest their savings there. A strategic but unpopular decision, which reignites the debate on access to fair and effective savings. In response, the Bank of France revives a long-underused solution: the Popular Savings Account. In this battle of returns, the lines of fracture between safety and performance are being redrawn.

For the second consecutive day, Ethereum-backed ETFs have attracted more capital than those linked to Bitcoin, with $403 million in inflows compared to $363 million. A strong signal that may mark a turning point in the preferences of institutional investors. Are we witnessing a shift in the established order of the crypto market?
