Analyst: A weaker dollar may help Bitcoin rise again

LMAX Group strategist Joel Kruger said in a report that the weakness of the dollar, coupled with an increase in investors' risk appetite, could help boost Bitcoin again. Bitcoin fell 1.7% due to trade uncertainties and concerns over tensions in the Middle East. The dollar index dropped to a three-year low of 97.789. "The weakness of the dollar is generally favorable for cryptocurrencies, and as investors shift back to higher-risk assets, the potential rebound of Bitcoin and Ethereum will be supported."

Yili Hua: BlackRock Bets on Ethereum RWA, ETH Rises as a Necessity for Safety

Yi Lihua, founder of LD Capital, said in an article on the X platform, "Another reason for ETH bullishness, BlackRock issued BUIDL, a tokenized money market fund, with its custodial treasury bonds and repurchase agreements as the underlying assets, the current scale of the fund is about 2.9 billion US dollars, of which 2.68 billion are deployed on Ethereum, accounting for more than 92%. BlackRock's stock of short-term bonds and similar assets is about 1 trillion yuan, and the market penetration rate of this fund is less than 1,000. However, the current attack cost on Ether is still too low, as a POS chain, the number of pledges on Ethereum in June is 34.65 million, close to 30% of the circulating supply, that is to say, the total circulation is 11,550, and the attacker needs to master 34% of the staking equity, which is about equal to about 10% of the circulating market value of Ether, that is to say, the attack cost is only 31.5 billion, and now the RWA scale of BlackRock's stock on Ethereum has reached 2.68 billion. As the scale of RWA rises, Ethereum must also rise, otherwise it will not be able to open up the market value space of assets issued on the chain. BlackRock's issuance of Ethereum ETFs and its increasing holdings are aimed at driving up the price of Ethereum, prompting Ethereum-staking ETFs to increase their control over the staked treasury to improve the security of its deployment of RWA assets on Ethereum. ” According to a report on May 27, Trend Research, under Yi Li Hua, stated that after establishing a position in ETH at 1400 USD and publishing a bullish research report at 1800 USD, they remain confident in the prospects of ETH and its blue-chip ecological assets. Yi Li Hua said, "We have always maintained a bullish outlook and increased our position in ETH consistently."

Matrixport: Leverage is the main driving force behind the current Ethereum price trend

Matrixport released its daily icon analysis stating that the funding rate for Ethereum has surged to 13.7%—the highest level since February, which typically attracts capital inflows into Ethereum ETFs, and such inflows are often seen as a bullish signal. However, a more important signal is that the open interest in futures contracts is nearing the peak expected in December 2024, indicating that leveraged futures traders, rather than spot buyers, are the main drivers of the current price movement. This stands in stark contrast to Bitcoin, where the spot demand remains the main driving force. A factor exacerbating this situation is the surge in bullish options buying, which has introduced significant gap risk to the ETH price movements due to the resulting Gamma hedging. The market is becoming increasingly fragile and extremely sensitive to further momentum changes.
