On July 3rd, Bitcoin surged to a three-week peak of $110,279, driven by sustained inflows into Bitcoin ETFs and easing macroeconomic pressures. The recent trade agreement between the United States and Vietnam, coupled with softer-than-expected ADP employment figures, has heightened market anticipation for potential interest rate reductions, thereby bolstering investor risk appetite. Institutional interest remains robust, highlighted by significant asset growth in BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF and the newly launched iShares Ethereum ETF. Additionally, Ripple’s application for a US banking license signals a strategic push by crypto firms to deepen their integration within the traditional financial ecosystem, underscoring the sector’s ongoing maturation and regulatory engagement.
