Bitcoin Price Coiling Up — Is a Surge Past $110K on Deck?

Ethereum (ETH) is up more than 8% over the past 48 hours, climbing from around 
$2,400 on July 1 to nearly $2,600 at the time of writing. The latest on-chain 
analysis reveals that both accumulation addresses and liquid staking volume 
are approaching all-time highs (ATH), fueling optimism that ETH’s price may 
soon follow. Ethereum Liquid Staking, Accumulation Addresses Nearing Historic 
Highs According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor 
Carmelo_Aleman, Ethereum’s liquid staking activity has seen a notable increase 
since June 1. The total amount of ETH staked rose from 34.54 million to 35.52 
million by June 30 &#8211; an increase of nearly one million ETH in just one month.

Are The Levels To Watch As of July 1, ETH set a new record in liquid staking, 
reaching 35.56 million ETH. A closer look suggests that most accumulation 
addresses are linked to institutional investors, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), 
and other large holders. Many of these investors choose to earn yield through 
liquid staking while waiting for substantial price appreciation. Among the 
biggest beneficiaries of this trend are decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols 
like Lido and Binance Liquid Staking, known for their scale and investor- 
friendly features. In addition to the rise in liquid staking, ETH accumulation 
addresses are also nearing record highs. As shown in the following ETH Cohort 
Study chart, these addresses grew 35.97% &#8211; from 16.72 million on June 1 to 
22.74 million by June 30. For the uninitiated, Ethereum accumulation addresses 
are wallets that acquire and hold ETH without significant outgoing 
transactions, often excluding known exchange, miner, or smart contract 
addresses. These addresses typically signal long-term investor confidence, as 
they represent entities accumulating ETH without actively selling. Also worth 
highlighting is that the Realized Price of these accumulation addresses &#8211; 
their average acquisition cost &#8211; stood at $2,114 on July 1. As ETH trades at 
$2,593 at the time of writing, these accumulation addresses are sitting on a 
healthy profit of approximately 22.65%. ETH Primed For A Breakout? Technical 
analysis suggests that ETH could be poised for a breakout in the near term. In 
a recent post, crypto analyst Titan of Crypto pointed out that ETH appears 
ready to break out of a broadening wedge pattern on the weekly chart, with a 
potential upside target of $4,200. Related Reading: Ethereum In Demand: ETF 
Inflow Streak Extends To 7 Weeks Institutional interest in Ethereum also 
appears to be strengthening. Notably, ETH may have found its own 
“MicroStrategy moment,” with Tom Lee and Joe Lubin revealing plans to 
accumulate significant ETH positions. That said, ETH must maintain support 
above the $2,200 level. A breakdown below this threshold could open the door 
for a drop to as low as $1,160. At press time, ETH is trading at $2,593, up 
1.7% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from

Litecoin (LTC) is back in the spotlight as bullish momentum sweeps across the 
crypto market. After months of volatility and sideways action, Litecoin is 
showing signs of strength, pushing above key technical levels and attracting 
fresh investor interest. The broader market recovery, fueled by optimism in 
Bitcoin and Ethereum, has created favorable conditions for altcoins to regain 
traction, and Litecoin could be one of the biggest beneficiaries. Related

Top analyst Carl Runefelt recently shared a technical analysis highlighting a 
major development: Litecoin has broken above a key level on the daily chart. 
This breakout is a critical technical signal, suggesting a potential trend 
reversal after weeks of consolidation and indecision. While resistance remains 
overhead, analysts believe that a confirmed reclaim of this level as support 
could trigger an expansive phase for LTC, opening the door to strong upside 
moves. As institutional interest in crypto grows and macroeconomic conditions 
stabilize, assets like Litecoin—known for speed, low fees, and high 
liquidity—may attract attention from traders and investors seeking asymmetric 
returns. With momentum on its side and market sentiment shifting, the coming 
days will be crucial to determine whether Litecoin can turn this breakout into 
a full-scale rally. Litecoin Bullish Momentum And ETF Hopes Fuel Rally 
Litecoin (LTC) is gaining bullish traction as price action strengthens and 
investor sentiment improves across the crypto market. Currently trading above 
$90, Litecoin has broken out of its downward trend, signaling renewed buying 
interest and technical strength. This move is particularly significant, given 
months of sideways consolidation and the broader market’s gradual recovery. 
According to Carl Runefelt, Litecoin has decisively broken above its 
descending resistance on the daily chart—a bullish technical setup that could 
pave the way for further gains. Runefelt believes the next target is $97.10, a 
level that, if reached and held, could mark the start of a new upward leg for 
LTC. The recent breakout has reignited interest in Litecoin’s medium-term 
prospects, especially as traders look for altcoins with momentum and untapped 
upside. Adding to the optimism is speculation surrounding a potential Litecoin 
spot Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). According to Bloomberg, the probability of 
approval for a Litecoin spot ETF by October 2 (local time) has risen to an 
impressive 95%. Such a product would offer institutional investors a new and 
regulated vehicle to gain exposure to LTC, potentially unlocking significant 
inflows. With favorable technicals and strong fundamentals aligning, Litecoin 
appears poised for a breakout. The coming days will be critical as bulls aim 
to confirm support above $90 and push toward the $97.10 resistance. If ETF 
approval expectations continue to build alongside broader market momentum, 
Litecoin could emerge as one of the top-performing altcoins of the current 
cycle. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bounces Off Key Demand Level – Price Discovery 
On The Menu? LTC Price Action: Key Levels To Reclaim Litecoin (LTC) is showing 
strong bullish momentum after breaking above a key descending resistance level 
on the daily chart. As seen in the chart, LTC surged over 4% in the last 
session, closing at $91.23. This breakout follows weeks of tight consolidation 
near the $85 zone and signals growing interest as market sentiment improves 
across the board. Price has now moved decisively above the 50-day and 100-day 
moving averages, which have acted as resistance in recent weeks. The next 
challenge lies at the 200-day moving average, currently near $98.50, which 
aligns closely with the analyst-projected target of $97.10. Reclaiming that 
level would confirm a full trend reversal and open the door to testing the 
$100 psychological level. Related Reading: Tron Shows Adoption Strength As

maintain momentum and consolidate above $90, Litecoin could confirm a shift in 
market structure and set the stage for a broader rally. On the downside, any 
rejection at the 200-day MA could trigger a retest of the $87–$89 support 
area. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
