BTC slipped over a grand right as markets stirred awake. Most big alts barely flinched with tiny dips. Yet ZEC crashed hardest, sliding more than 6% in one sharp move. 🖤

BTC Clings Near 64000 Amid Shade 🌑

Last Monday stung even worse. Bitcoin hovered near 64000 until bears yanked it under 62000. Softer US CPI figures then sparked a fierce climb that pushed it to 65600, the best tag in weeks. Still the momentum faded fast and it tumbled back to 62500 by Friday. Bulls fought back hard and lifted it toward 64000 by Saturday dawn. The weekend felt brighter as it crept up and brushed 65000 on Monday morning. History looped again though as it dropped to 63700 earlier today before clawing back just under 64000. Market cap stays below 1290000000000 while dominance lingers at 57%.

PI Crashes Resistance While PUMP Soars 20% 🦇

PI suddenly rocketed double digits yesterday and tapped the 0.10 line that flipped from support to resistance. It held most gains and now battles to break that barrier too. PUMP exploded over 20% today reaching 0.002. HASH tumbled more than 9% instead. ZEC shed the most among larger alts and fell below 530 after its 6.5% drop. RAIN BCH UNI and TAO each eased up to 3%. The rest like ETH BNB XRP SOL and HYPE slipped at most 1%. Total crypto market cap erased about 20000000000 daily and sits at 2250000000000.

Total value feels drained yet whispers of recovery linger in the dark. 💉🕸️🌹🕯️📉

Crypto markets stayed chill over the weekend with barely any swings and total cap sitting near $2.3 trillion 🖤. Defense moves in the Middle East kept going strong as US Central Command noted fresh strikes on Iran for the ninth night straight. “The strikes will keep wearing down Iranian military tools used to hit trade ships and crews crossing the Strait of Hormuz” they added 🌙. Crude prices climbed once more with WTI at $85 and Brent over $90 while US shares cooled amid fresh inflation hints 🔮.

Economic Happenings July 20 to 24 🌑

No fresh data drops land on Monday or Tuesday and jobless claims arrive Thursday. Friday brings S&P PMI figures on manufacturing and services that often show shifts in growth. This batch should hint if the economy stays solid after last week’s softer CPI read. “The cooling trend from 2023 looks solid still” noted Elmar Voelker of LBBW. With that in view US rate setters seem unlikely to hike at the coming meeting. The CME Fed Watch Tool shows an 85.6% chance rates hold steady on July 29.

Big tech names like Alphabet and Tesla drop their second-quarter numbers this week too.

Crypto Market Vibes This Week 🦇

Crypto stayed almost still in the last day with Bitcoin near $64,700 wedged between $62,000 support and $65,000 resistance 🕸️. Ethereum sat around $1,870 without losing recent bumps while BTC closed the week above its 200-week moving average. “A real push higher would retrace the drop and clear the weekly 200 EMA” analyst Daan said. Until then price stays stuck in the $60K range 🥀.

Strategy just flexed hard to squash those liquidity fears from earlier this year 🌑. CryptoQuant dropped fresh on-chain tea confirming the tweaks eased short-term cramps in a July 14 update 🖤. Some shadows still linger around the long game for their Bitcoin hoard though 🔪.

Fresh Capital Framework Spins Into Action 🌸

The latest drop builds on their June 23 red flags about shrinking cash while Bitcoin buys kept rolling. Back then analysts pegged reserves enough for only 14 months of preferred dividends without fresh fuel 💀. Strategy fired back on June 29 with the Digital Credit Capital Framework to crank up flexibility 📊. A board-approved USD reserve policy kicked off targeting 2.55 billion before bumping the goal toward 3 billion 🪙. They hiked the STRC dividend to 12 percent and greenlit 1 billion each for preferred securities and MSTR buybacks plus a Bitcoin Monetization Program letting them offload up to 1.25 billion worth to steady reserves.
Those moves line up tight with the earlier advice from CryptoQuant. Purchases paused while they offloaded 3588 BTC for roughly 216 million between June 29 and July 5 and pulled 466.7 million via the MSTR at-the-market offering. Cash jumped from 1.44 billion to around 3 billion stretching dividend coverage out to 29 months. Holdings stayed locked at 843775 BTC by hitting the brakes on new accumulation 💎.

Bitcoin Path Still Veiled In Mystery 🕸️

Markets cheered the beefed-up position yet questions swirl about the next moves. STRC clawed up from a June low near 75 to around 88 while still sitting below the 100 mark. No clear timeline surfaced for restarting buys after this pause and the monetization setup puts dividends reserves and repurchases first without spelling out a crisp Bitcoin trading blueprint.

Following an intense eight-week period filled with heavy outflows the spot Bitcoin ETFs shifted direction mid-July stretching their recovery with yet another positive week. Yet the vehicles tracking the largest altcoin pulled ahead of the leader securing stronger weekly net inflows overall 🌹

Bitcoin ETFs Sustain Their Green Streak 🌑

Perhaps tied to rising tensions in the Middle East over the prior weekend Monday opened with a striking 424.66 million dollar net outflow from spot BTC ETFs marking the largest single withdrawal since June 26. This left the prior week’s bright signs feeling more like a fleeting shadow.
Investors pivoted over the next four days though with fresh capital pouring in Tuesday brought 181 million dollars Wednesday added 107.8 million dollars Thursday contributed 79.15 million dollars and Friday delivered 132.30 million dollars. The weekend closed positively with net inflows of 75.67 million dollars 🖤
These figures pale against the massive exodus seen from mid-May through early July where five of eight weeks saw over 1 billion dollars pulled out each time and the week ending June 26 hit a near-record 1.79 billion dollars in outflows. The funds shed more than 8 billion dollars total across roughly two months.
Cumulative net inflows fell from 59.34 billion dollars to 51.08 billion dollars before edging back to 51.35 billion dollars as of July 17.

Ethereum Funds Outpace The Leader ✨

While BTC-focused products drew just over 75 million dollars last week the spot Ethereum ETFs performed even stronger gaining 105.44 million dollars on top of the previous week’s 84.42 million dollars 🦇
Monday stayed modestly negative with 15.41 million dollars exiting but Thursday’s 28.04 million dollar outflow was more than balanced by inflows of 58.34 million dollars on Tuesday 53.83 million dollars on Wednesday and 36.73 million dollars on Friday 💸
Like their BTC counterparts the ETH funds endured an eight-week losing streak shedding over 1.1 billion dollars cumulatively dropping from 12.09 billion dollars to 10.89 billion dollars before climbing to 11.08 billion dollars after two green weeks in mid-July 🌙
