The total market capitalization of digital assets has climbed to a new all-time high of $4.15 trillion. Although it has since fallen below $4 trillion, investors remain optimistic, with Bitcoin and Ethereum leading the way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin and Ethereum drive growth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin<\/a> climbed to $122,321 on Monday, just below its all-time high. However, the growth of Ethereum was even more impressive, exceeding $4,000 over the weekend and reaching $4,351.7. In the last month alone, it has strengthened by more than 45%, and analysts believe that the new record set in 2021 will soon be broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Institutional interest in ETH is growing rapidly, with companies now holding more than 3.49 million ethereum<\/a> worth over $15 billion. However, Bitcoin maintains its key position, with over 26,000 BTC added to corporate reserves in July alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activity vs. stability<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although prices are being driven up by incentives and speculation, experts point to a lack of long-term capital. Andrei Grachev of DWF Labs<\/a> warns that activities such as airdrops and yield programs support short-term flows but do not build a stable foundation for the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His concerns are confirmed by Bitcoin’s declining dominance and a sharp drop in yields on decentralized platforms. According to Grachev, this could make the market vulnerable to any sell-off, as even moderate pressure could trigger significant price movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Political support adds strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

However, the regulatory environment also has a significant impact on sentiment. US President Donald <\/strong>Trump <\/strong><\/a>has signed two executive orders that could strengthen the adoption of cryptocurrencies, from opening pension plans for digital assets to ending the practice of “debanking.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These steps are boosting optimism, but as Grachev points out, real liquidity will only become apparent under stressful conditions. Investors are therefore closely watching developments in stablecoins, funding rates, and on-chain loans, which may provide clues about the market’s true strength.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
