1/ Bitcoin gained 0.69% to $65,111.21, tracking a 0.77% broader market rise. Softer US jobs data and cooling June CPI pushed July Fed rate hike expectations down to 6%. This macro shift reduced near-term risks and encouraged capital rotation back into regulated digital assets.


2/ US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $273.1 million in net inflows over two consecutive weeks. This positive momentum snapped a severe 8-week outflow streak that previously drained over $8.2 billion. Institutional selling pressure has visibly eased as regulated products regain traction.
3/ Bitcoin liquidations surged 561% to $90.45 million in 24 hours, with short positions comprising 70% of the total. Aggregate open interest simultaneously rose 8.09%. This forced exit of over-leveraged shorts created a mechanical squeeze that amplified upward price momentum.
4/ Bitcoin faces immediate resistance at $65,261, the former February consolidation floor. A daily close above this level with rising volume targets the $67,664 Fibonacci extension. Traders must watch the weekly simple moving average support at $64,154 to avoid a retest of $62,402.
5/ US spot Ethereum ETFs attracted $105 million in net inflows during the week of July 13 to 17, 2026. This marked the strongest weekly performance since April, ending an 8-week outflow streak. BlackRock ETHA led these inflows, providing direct mechanical buying pressure.
6/ Corporate entity Bitmine expanded its treasury to hold 5.78 million ETH tokens, representing 4.8% of the total circulating supply. Additionally, the new Robinhood Chain layer-2 network attracted over $141 million in bridged Ether, highlighting strong structural demand and expanding network utility.
7/ Ethereum trades above its 30-day simple moving average at $1,874.91. Bulls need a daily close above $1,900 to target $1,916 and $2,000. A break below $1,850 invalidates the short-term uptrend. The July 28 to 29 Fed meeting remains the primary macroeconomic catalyst.
