Bitcoin’s Back on the Hunt

22.07.2025 Bitcoin regains strength, ETH faces short-term pressure, and key macro events loom.

DAILY MARKET OVERVIEW


🔥 Bitcoin Flexes Again?

👋 Hey, Crypto Enthusiasts! After taking a breather, Bitcoin looks like it’s ready to get back in the driver’s seat.

📈 BTC Dominance Finds Its Floor

After sliding from 66% to around 60%, Bitcoin dominance is hitting a key support zone. Today, BTC is leading the charge, outperforming the alts and drawing in fresh trader interest.

A bounce here could mean Bitcoin’s prepping for a big move. A retest of the all-time high isn’t off the table - especially if this dominance bounce holds and capital starts rotating back into BTC.

🧠 Ethereum: Strength With a Side of Selling

Ethereum’s momentum has been undeniable lately - ETF inflows, institutional backing, and increased adoption have all pushed ETH higher. But there’s a catch.

Roughly 475,708 ETH is currently queued for unstaking. That’s about $1.7 billion worth that could hit the market over the next two weeks.

This doesn’t mean ETH is in trouble. Most of this should be absorbed by demand - especially with companies like Sharplink and ETF vehicles in play - but it could put a lid on explosive upside in the short term.

🏦PNC Bank Enters Crypto

And the biggest news today, a major step forward for institutional adoption, PNC Bank, which oversees more than $555 billion in assets, is entering the cryptocurrency space.

  • The bank will offer digital asset trading and custody services to its clients through a new partnership with Coinbase.

  • This move positions PNC as one of the most significant U.S. financial institutions to integrate crypto infrastructure directly into its offerings.

  • Adding to the momentum, the recent passage of the Genius Act introduces long-awaited regulatory clarity for digital assets.

With both institutional and regulatory environments becoming more defined, the foundation for long-term crypto growth is getting stronger and stronger.

SOCIAL SENTIMENT


🐂 Bullish Energy, But Eyes on the Exit

The overall sentiment across crypto remains bullish, fueled by Bitcoin’s renewed strength and capital rotation back into majors.

But while confidence is high, there's still an underlying caution. The market hasn’t seen a meaningful correction in weeks, and many are aware that a sharp pullback could still be on the table.

The last few days of July are going to be really important for how crypto shapes up for the rest of the year.

Here’s what to watch:

  • FOMC Meeting (July 30): The Fed may decide to cut rates or signal that a cut is coming soon, as more members lean toward a cautious, dovish stance, which could be supportive for markets.

  • QRA Meeting (July 30): This is where the Treasury reveals its plans for issuing debt to fund government spending. It’s the first one under Bessent as Treasury Chair, so we’ll be watching to see if he takes a more aggressive or strategic approach that could impact markets.

  • Tariff Letter Deadlines (August 1st): Deadlines are coming up that could impact trade tariffs. This could shake up markets depending on what’s announced.

  • Supreme Court Review: They’re starting to consider whether the President can legally impose tariffs without going through Congress. The decision could have big consequences.

Right now, we don’t see a clear advantage in either direction. We’re waiting for more information before making any moves. Stay sharp.

Lark Davis – Crypto’s Perfect Storm Is Here (22.07.2025 Summary)

Lark Davis: The Perfect Crypto Storm Is Here

Lark says most people are underestimating what’s coming. The signs are everywhere - and this time, it’s not retail leading the charge.

His Key Points:

  • Institutions are buying hard: BTC, ETH, even meme coins

  • ETFs pulled in billions - BlackRock alone holds 700K+ BTC

  • Treasury demand is exploding, and supply is drying up fast

  • Retail is trickling back in, but FOMO hasn’t started yet

Regulation? The Best It’s Ever Been.
Laws are changing fast. Stablecoins just got the green light. Big banks and even Amazon are getting in.

Macro? Quietly Bullish.
Inflation is cooling. Jobs are strong. Rate cuts are on the table - and markets are already surging without them.

Lark’s Take:
This could be a super cycle. The groundwork is stronger than any cycle before.
Retail is late. Institutions are early. And when the Fed cuts, it might light the fuse.

Because Bitcoin – Pepe, ETH, Doge, & their pair charts (22.07.2025 Summary)

Max says the market’s calling top too early. Based on years of chart behavior, he sees Pepe as coiled and ready - not finished.

  • ETH leads, Pepe follows - Same as Q1 2024. ETH broke out, Pepe followed weeks later. Max says we’re in that lag again.

  • This isn’t bearish - Pepe is up, just not as much as ETH or DOGE (yet). Classic setup for a catch-up move.

  • Pair charts say it all - Pepe/DOGE and Coinbase/Pepe show tight historical correlations. Pepe tends to move after leaders rip.

  • No sign of a top - Ethereum funding rates are still low. Every major Pepe top in the past came when funding was overheated. We’re not even close.

Max’s Take:
This is the “beachball underwater” setup. Pepe hasn’t broken correlation - it’s just lagging. When the move comes, it could be fast and vertical.
