The cryptocurrency market has recently experienced a downturn, but a recovery appears to be on the horizon for many altcoins.

U.S. politicians have developed a reputation for being exceptionally savvy traders in no small part thanks to the immensely successful and widely publicized stock market activity of Nancy Pelosi and the incredibly successful portfolio of Brian Higgs. Nonetheless, Congressional trading is both a bipartisan activity and not one that always leads to success, as exemplified by a very poorly-timed investment made in late June by Marjorie Taylor Greene. Indeed, on June 27, the Representative reported a purchase of CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) stock that she made three days earlier.

The Bitcoin open interest is a good indicator of how investors are viewing the cryptocurrency and what bets they’re making. This is why the metric hitting a new all-time high is a big deal, carrying serious implications for the market. Once again, the Bitcoin open interest has set a new record and this could spell doom for the digital asset, even if just in the short-term. Bitcoin Open Interest Sets New Record In an interesting turn of events, the Bitcoin open interest has now risen to a new all-time high. After hitting a record high of $39.03 billion back in May, the open interest had declined for a while, even dropping below $30 billion back in May.

In a highly anticipated keynote address at the Bitcoin 2024 conference, Michael Saylor , the Co-Founder of MicroStrategy , forecasted that Bitcoin (BTC) could reach a staggering $13 million per coin by 2045. This projection, delivered on July 26 in Nashville, marks a significant increase from his previous $10 million estimate in June. Saylor’s bullish outlook is underpinned by his belief that Bitcoin could see an annual return of 29% over the next 21 years. “For Bitcoin to achieve a $13 million value by 2045, it would need to grow at an average annual rate of 29%,” Saylor explained. This ambitious target would elevate Bitcoin’s market capitalisation to $280 trillion, representing 7% of global wealth. $13M is the #Bitcoin Base Case. pic.twitter.com/0Wz60P2C5n — Michael Saylor️ (@saylor) July 27, 2024 Saylor’s Vision for Bitcoin’s Longevity Saylor’s presentation also touched on the comparative longevity of physical versus digital assets.

In today's fast-paced world, where inflation progresses faster than a blink, the question of how to protect your savings becomes increasingly pressing. This concern applies to both fiat money and crypto assets. In traditional banking, interest-earning accounts are designed to generate yields for depositors. However, current bank rates often fail to keep pace with inflation. For instance, the European Central Bank's deposit facility rate is only 3.75%. In the realm of Decentralized Finance (DeFi), a parallel exists between interest-earning accounts and crypto staking. Unlike traditional bank deposits, crypto staking offers greater opportunities for higher yields, as many crypto projects provide generous rewards. For example, Orbit Protocol offers the annual percentage rate (APY) of around 17%.   For cryptocurrency owners, staking can be a way to put their assets to work and generate profits rather than collect dust in their crypto wallets. However, selecting staking

Solana ETF and XRP ETF hope to face a big setback as BlackRock’s head of digital assets, Robert Mitchnick, doubts their approval. At the Bitcoin Conference 2024, Mitchnick’s words sparked debate in the crypto community, challenging the hope that followed recent Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF approvals.

He stresses the market dominance of Bitcoin and Ethereum, stating: “If you think of Bitcoin, today it represents about 55% of the market cap. ETH is at 18%. The next possible investible asset is at, like, 3%.” This gap in market share is seen as a big hurdle for potential altcoin ETFs. Regulatory concerns also play a key role in Mitchnick’s view.

In a very short time, Non-Fungible Tokens have grown from a niche interest into something sweeping the mainstream to change the digital landscape. Unlike bitcoins or other forms of cryptocurrency, NFTs are distinct digital representations that, by being verified on the blockchain, have become of very significant value in their applications to art, gaming, and entertainment. NFTs had their first wide media appearance in early 2021 when digital artist Beeple sold an NFT work at Christie’s for $69 million. That was truly a defining moment, really showing how much value digital creation could have. Artists and creators viewed this new application for NFTs as revolutionary in monetizing their work, since it provided provenance and proof of ownership in a way traditional methods couldn’t. It is true that even the gaming industry has adopted NFTs, whereby players can own and trade in-game assets that help create new models for economies existing in virtual worlds.
