July 24, 2025 • By Rubmar Garcia

Ethereum (ETH) has rallied nearly 70% in the past month and is attempting to reclaim its critical resistance around $3,800.

BREAKING – US Set To Reveal Key Crypto Report—A Make‑Or‑Break Moment For Bitcoin

July 24, 2025 • By Christian Encila

A new policy report from the US President's Digital Asset Working Group is set to be released on July 30, which may reshape how digital assets fit into the US government's plans. The report is expected to cover the setup of a national digital-asset fund, potentially using seized coins and budget-neutral methods to buy more Bitcoin. The government currently holds around 200,000 BTC from law enforcement seizures. The report may also recommend a 20-year holding period for stability. This development, along with recent legislative moves such as the GENIUS Act and the BITCOIN Act, could add demand to the Bitcoin market, but also carries risks such as price swings and security costs.

SEC Hits Pause On Bitwise ETF Offering Broad Crypto Exposure
SEC Hits Pause On Bitwise ETF Offering Broad Crypto Exposure

July 24, 2025 • By Bloomberg News

Here is a concise summary of the news article: The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has halted the approval process for Bitwise's cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund (ETF), which would offer broad crypto exposure. The SEC's Division of Trading and Markets initially approved the fund, but later issued an "indefinite stay" suspending its launch. This setback reflects the regulatory ambiguity surrounding crypto ETFs, with the SEC grappling with how to oversee products that combine traditional finance and decentralized technologies. Bitwise's fund, which would track a market-cap-weighted index of major digital assets, is one of several similar filings in limbo, including those from Grayscale Investments and Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. The SEC's decision has created confusion and undermined market confidence, with some analysts speculating that the agency wants to finalize a framework for crypto asset ETPs before allowing these products to convert to ETFs.

Analyst Sounds Alarm For 50% Crash If Bitcoin Doesn’t Make A New ATH Soon

July 24, 2025 • By Scott Matherson

Here is a concise summary of the news article: Crypto analyst Tony Severino warns that Bitcoin (BTC) may experience a sharp correction if it fails to reach a new all-time high soon.

Severino's analysis suggests that BTC may decline to around $60,000, a 50% drawdown from current levels. However, another analyst, 'The Crypto Professor,' predicts that BTC is gearing up for a fresh all-time high, targeting $129,948, a 9.6% price gain from its current price. The outcome depends on whether BTC can maintain its upward momentum and break out into a new all-time high soon.

July 23, 2025 • By Shishir Sinha

The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has seen significant results from its 'NUDGE' strategy, which uses data analytics to identify potential tax evasion.

The 'NUDGE' campaigns have led to 62% of taxpayers revising their returns and declaring foreign assets worth ₹29,208 crore. The updated return facility has also seen success, with 88,92,395 updated ITRs filed, generating ₹9,577.06 crores in additional taxes. The CBDT plans to further harness AI and machine learning to enhance risk-assessment capabilities and improve the taxpayer experience.
