Meme coin trading has a new volume leader. Robinhood Chain’s suite of launchpads processed $1.23 billion in trading volume over the past seven days, edging out PumpSwap’s roughly $1.22 billion, according to the original report from WuBlockchain.

21Shares Says Bitcoin’s Upside Case Starts With a $70K Break Bitcoin could climb to $100,000 by the end of the third quarter if it clears $70,000 resistance, according to Matt Mena, Senior Crypto Research Strategist at crypto asset manager 21Shares.

He said the next major test is whether buyers can reclaim $70,000. The 21Shares senior crypto research strategist stated: “ Bitcoin itself, while…

Bitcoin, ether and every other major cryptocurrency fell on Friday, with many pointing to a Beijing startup that gave away a model that beat Anthropic’s best at writing code. Moonshot AI released Kimi K3 on Thursday, and by Friday morning, AI and semiconductor stocks were selling off across Asia as traders dubbed it a “Kimi moment,” an echo of the DeepSeek shock that erased roughly $600 billion from Nvidia’s market value in a single session. What Moonshot built is a 2.8-trillion-parameter model with a one-million-token context window, roughly four times the size of its previous version. It runs on a…

Crypto exchange shutdowns were once seen as an indicator of an impending market bottom. But that pattern may no longer hold. Today, Bitcoin’s weakness appears to be showing up elsewhere… particularly in Spot ETF flows. Considering ETFs were (and still are) considered a sign of institutional credibility, their recent red patch makes one wonder: have institutional flows become a better measure of market sentiment than exchange failures? Exchange shutdowns: A weak BTC bottom sign? Over the years, there’s been a strong impression that exchange shutdowns can help identify a market low. Recent data does not support that idea. Per data…

The US Consumer Price Index, released on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, fell 0.4% on a monthly…
