Welcome,

The cryptocurrency market enjoyed a prosperous week following news that inflation is moderating. The U.S. Consumer Price Index remained unchanged from June to July, providing investors with some relief.

In addition, Ether surged to a two-month high following the successful completion of final testing for the Ethereum upgrade scheduled for the following month.

Market update

Bitcoin had a strong week and briefly traded above $25,000 for the first time since June before dropping back to $24.213. Ethereum, on the other hand, reached $2.010 at one moment and is currently up by +7.49% since 7 days ago.

The total global market cap of crypto rose by another $3B and the well-known meme coin Dogecoin returned in the top ten list

BlackRock Launches a Private Trust to Give Clients Exposure to Spot Bitcoin

BlackRock, the largest asset manager in the world, has established a private bitcoin trust. BlackRock stated in a statement that despite the sharp decline in the digital asset market, they continue to see significant interest from their institutional clients.

Robinhood Must Face U.S. Market Manipulation Claims Over ‘Meme Stock’ Rally

Robinhood, a prominent trading platform, will defend itself in court against market manipulation allegations related to the “meme stock” rally.

The proposed class action lawsuit asserts that Robinhood’s decision to restrict the trading of certain securities, such as GameStop and AMC, angered retail investors, shook market confidence, and ultimately led to artificially depressed share prices.

Crypto Mixing Service Blacklisted by Treasury Department for Alleged Use in Laundering

The Treasury Department of the United States has sanctioned the popular cryptocurrency mixing service Tornado Cash for allegedly aiding in the laundering of $7 billion in crypto assets by failing to implement effective controls.

Final word

If we accept that we were in the 4th crypto winter until now, it is safe to assume that we have finally entered the crypto spring. With the beginning of this new cycle for the industry, we are looking into the numerous upcoming technological updates across different protocols.

This week, BlackRock’s moves toward crypto investing were the subject of a second major news story. Uncertainty exists as to whether this will be pivotal to the next crypto craze or if it will have more drawbacks.

The exposure of $10 trillion to crypto, however, does sound promising.
