The constant interaction between traditional macroeconomics and the crypto market has just passed a new decisive milestone on an international scale. While the US Federal Reserve (Fed) has maintained a strict monetary policy for months, the release of the latest economic indicators has shaken all investors' certainties. On Tuesday, July 14, at the opening of the Wall Street session, the price of the leading crypto recorded an upward impulse, once again crossing the major psychological resistance of $64,000. This responsiveness reveals the persistent dependence of assets on US macroeconomic data, particularly inflation trends.

Seventy-six banking groups, led by the American Bankers Association and the Independent Community Bankers of America, urged the Senate on Monday, July 13, to amend the Clarity Act before its vote.

A few weeks before the major correction in October, I argued in my market analyses that the bull market had come to an end. I recommended selling all positions around $120K, as I believed we were entering a bear market. My outlook has not changed since then.

The digital asset ecosystem continues to evolve despite a still hesitant altcoin market. In this context, Chainlink reports a significant increase in its adoption with an unprecedented number of Ethereum wallets holding LINK tokens. This dynamic contrasts with more cautious activity in the derivatives markets, where sellers maintain the advantage.

The influence of macroeconomics on crypto valuation remains a fundamental principle for contemporary financial markets. In mid-July, volatility makes its strong return to the market. While investors were scrutinizing charts looking for a recovery signal, the flagship crypto price faltered, reminding us of the influence of monetary policies on risk assets. This drop directly stems from an adjustment of investors’ expectations regarding the upcoming decisions of the US Federal Reserve (Fed), ahead of the publication of a key report on inflation.

Trump posted Monday on Truth Social a call to the Senate to vote for the CLARITY Act "in tribute" to Lindsey Graham, a senator who died Saturday at the age of 71.

On July 13, the United States transferred nearly 4,000 bitcoins (approximately 250 million dollars) to Coinbase Prime.

Bitcoin sees its dominance challenged by Ethereum on a closely watched indicator: the ETH/BTC ratio. Rising to 0.02858 BTC, Ethereum breaks a resistance of several weeks.

The Bitcoin protocol has just activated one of the most powerful self-regulation mechanisms in its recent history, profoundly changing the financial balances of mining operators. While the sector has been continuously eroding its margins since the beginning of the year, this algorithm update comes at a critical time when the economic survival of mining facilities depends on the smallest fraction of a dollar.

The debate around the evolution of the Bitcoin network is experiencing a new episode with the BIP-110 proposal, designed to limit non-monetary transactions and certain data considered undesirable. While its defenders believe it would protect the initial use of the protocol, several influential figures dispute this approach.
