Bitcoin clears the space around it: small ones slip away, the big ones get richer. Meanwhile, the network coughs, fees drop, and ETFs flee.

The world's second largest crypto has achieved a historic feat by reaching a market capitalization of 500 billion dollars faster than any other major company or even Bitcoin. This achievement is accompanied by a doubling of gains for long-term holders. But how far can ETH climb before profit-taking rekindles volatility?

An exceptional technical show of force is currently shaking the crypto ecosystem. Qubic now controls 58% of Monero's (XMR) total hashrate during its marathon periods, setting a new record of computational power while simultaneously proving that technical innovation and responsibility can coexist. This remarkable performance illustrates the unique capabilities of the Qubic network and its revolutionary vision of Useful Proof of Work.

When bitcoin falters, whales sell, small holders pick up, and the Fed sneezes. Crypto, this monetary theater where everyone plays their part... often without knowing the script.

In a few hours, Ethereum went from euphoria to retreat. On August 24, the crypto reached an all-time high of 4,955 dollars before losing nearly 9% shortly after, with 60 billion dollars of capitalization going up in smoke. Such a brutal correction, occurring in an already fragile market, recalls the fragility of bullish rallies in an environment still largely driven by speculation.

While the crypto market is going through a summer lull, one asset draws attention: XRP. Trapped in a tight chart pattern, it is approaching a decisive breakout point. Technical analysis leaves little doubt. A major move is looming, either upward or downward. In a context of general uncertainty, all eyes turn to this crypto whose next few days could well redefine its path.

While bitcoin briefly fell back to 112,000 dollars, MicroStrategy seized the opportunity to increase its strategic stock. Michael Saylor, the largest public holder of BTC, maintains his bet on bitcoin despite now reduced acquisitions.

In August, Ethereum reached 14.98% dominance, its highest since September 2024, accompanied by a historic record. At the same time, Bitcoin fell to 58.2%, its lowest since January 2025. This shift reflects a capital reallocation within the crypto market: whales, notably on Binance, are now accumulating ETH, confirming that Ethereum is no longer a mere supporting actor but a real growth asset compared to Bitcoin, still seen as a safe haven.

Metaplanet Inc., the Japanese company, recently acquired 103 additional bitcoins, for about 11.7 million dollars. This brought its total reserve to 18,991 BTC. Currently, these holdings are worth between 1.94 and 2.2 billion dollars according to estimates. Metaplanet thus confirms its place among the largest global institutional holders.

Michael Saylor does not ease the pressure. The co-founder of Strategy announced a new bitcoin purchase, his third in a row this month. Despite the market volatility and the fluctuations in his company's stock price, he relentlessly pursues his plan: accumulate BTC, whatever the cost. His conviction remains intact, almost unshakable.

While the crypto market struggles to maintain its stability, BNB stands out as the exception of the moment. The native token of the Binance platform is approaching 1,000 dollars, driven by robust technical indicators and a renewed interest from investors. This progress contrasts with the overall sector's decline and could mark a turning point for the asset.

While Ethereum was showing off at nearly $5,000, Bitcoin was crashing… Traders saw their dreams evaporate faster than a presidential alibi.

Crypto markets pulse to the beat of the Federal Reserve. As Jerome Powell mentions a possible rate cut in September, Santiment sounds the alarm. Could the current euphoria be hiding a trap for investors?

While Ether (ETH) is reaching new highs with a surge of more than 25% in August, investors wonder: are we witnessing a lasting consolidation or just a rebound before a correction? Driven by ETF inflows and a favorable macroeconomic climate, ETH is once again attracting institutional investors. However, history tempers optimism. Since 2016, every August rally has been followed by a bearish September. Will the current euphoria mark a break or will it reactivate the market's seasonal mechanics?

Since its creation, Ethereum has claimed resistance to censorship. However, Vitalik Buterin warns: the concentration of power among a few block builders threatens the network's neutrality. To remedy this, he proposes several avenues, the most ambitious, named FOCIL, could redefine the inclusion of transactions.

Volatility is back on bitcoin. But despite some hesitation, the underlying bullish trend remains unshakable.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the crypto project supported by the Trump family, makes a spectacular entry into the derivatives markets. The launch of its perpetual contracts propelled the fully diluted valuation (FDV) beyond 40 billion dollars, even before the official first unlock of tokens scheduled for September 1st.

Quietly, but surely, bitcoin is establishing itself in the global monetary architecture. The flagship crypto asset has just crossed a symbolic threshold: its market capitalization now amounts to nearly 1.7% of the planetary money supply. A still limited weight compared to state currencies and precious metals, but indicative of a deep trend: the rise of a decentralized asset within a system dominated for decades by fiat money and traditional reserves.

While the asset has just broken its all-time high, Arthur Hayes, the founder of BitMEX, reignites the debate by putting forward a shocking prediction: Ethereum could reach between 10,000 and 20,000 dollars by the end of the bull cycle. A statement that, in a climate of strong monetary uncertainty, resonates as a strong signal for the crypto ecosystem, between personal conviction, macroeconomic reading, and very real market dynamics.

High-leverage trader James Wynn has once again captured market attention, this time with an aggressive long position in Ethereum. The seasoned speculator is riding Ether’s surge to new records, underscoring both the risks and rewards of extreme leverage in a market defined by volatility.

Nasdaq-listed SharpLink Gaming (SBET) has adopted a unique approach to maximize its shareholder value through a newly approved repurchase program. In a Friday statement, the Minneapolis-based firm outlined plans that would enable it to repurchase up to $1.5 billion worth of common stock to boost its Ethereum holdings.

After nearly a week of withdrawals, U.S. spot Ether exchange-traded funds saw a sharp reversal on Thursday as investors poured in $287.6 million. The surge came after four consecutive days of outflows totaling more than $924 million, signaling that institutional appetite for Ether may be regaining momentum.

The European Union is considering anchoring its future digital euro on public blockchains like Ethereum and Solana, according to Financial Times revelations. This choice would mark a major break from centralized approaches, like China, and could redefine the balance of monetary sovereignty in Europe.
