Cryptocurrency News Today: Market Updates & Analysis podcast.
Hey crypto fam, it’s your buddy Crypto Willy here, with all the latest market updates, highs, and seismic news shaking the digital currency universe this week!
This week has been wild, with the **crypto market soaring past an eye-watering $4 trillion** for the first time ever, according to Fortune. That’s a massive milestone, beating any record we’ve ever seen and leaving Wall Street’s flat-lining indices eating dust. The S&P 500 hardly budged, but digital assets? They went to the moon. This boom was turbocharged after Congress passed a *landmark bill*: President Donald Trump himself signed the Genius Act into law, joking at the press conference, “They named it after me!” The bill gives the green light for stablecoin regulation—finally spelling out the rules for cryptocurrencies tied to real-world assets like the dollar.
Crypto Week in Congress was historic. The House didn’t just pass the Genius Act. Representatives advanced the CLARITY Act for digital asset regulation and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, showing they’re dead-set against a government-run Central Bank Digital Currency and laser-focused on privacy and free markets. Committee chairs French Hill and GT Thompson were positively giddy, touting these new frameworks as the long-awaited playbook U.S. innovators needed to run wild and keep America at the digital asset forefront.
No surprise, **Bitcoin** led the charge, blazing past $120,000 right after the bill was signed. It’s settled now in a bullish range around **$107K to $112K**, riding all-time-highs and blasting through its 20, 50, 100, and 200-day EMAs, signaling we are *well into a strong uptrend* (props to CoinDCX for the charts). The big resistance to watch next is $112K. If Bitcoin pierces that, we could hopscotch to $115K or even $120K faster than you can say “hodl.”
Let’s not forget **Ethereum**. The OG smart contract king is sitting pretty at over $3,344, according to ZebPay. It keeps racking up those DeFi, NFT, and decentralized app success stories, especially since it flipped to Proof-of-Stake. Layer 2s and new ETH-based projects are popping up like mushrooms on a rainy day—definitely one to keep your laser eyes on for July.
Honorable mentions from ZebPay’s current top ten: **Binance Coin, Solana, XRP** (which is steadily gaining after years of regulatory drama), meme-fi legend **Dogecoin**, trusty old **Cardano**, and up-and-comers like **Avalanche**, **Shiba Inu**, and **Polkadot**. Oh, and the crypto-adjacent stock runners—**Coinbase hit a record $444 and Robinhood spiked to $113**, so TradFi is finally showing some love to crypto rails.
Here’s the takeaway from your pal Willy: Institutional cash is flowing in, rules of the road are finally coming from Washington, and the U.S. is hyped up to be the capital of crypto innovation. If you’re watching charts, prepping your portfolio, or just aping into the hottest tokens, this market is the one to watch as July wraps up.
That’s all for this week’s epic ride through the cryptosphere! Thanks for tuning in, and make sure to swing by next week for another dose of high-voltage market scoop. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more from me, check out Quiet Please Dot A I. Catch ya on the blockchain!
