Circle Seeks Approval to Launch ‘First National Digital Currency Bank’

US regulators and market watchers are eyeing a fresh valuation study that puts 
XRP on track for a dramatic price surge by 2030. Related Reading: The $100K 
Mirage: Bitcoin’s Rally Not Backed By On-Chain Strength According to Valhil 
Capital’s deep‑dive report, XRP could climb from its current price into a 
range between $4,813 and $9,000 in just five years. That forecast hinges on a 
model that treats XRP not only as a quick way to move money but also as a 
store of value. Model Weighs Store Of Value According to the Athey &amp; Mitchnick 
Model used by Valhil Capital, XRP’s role goes way beyond sending payments. The 
study gives much more weight to people holding XRP like they would gold. In 
their view, as more folks start treating XRP as a place to park money, fewer 
coins stay in circulation. That tight supply pushes the price higher. The 
model blends economic ideas, real‑world trends, and crypto market moves to 
arrive at its numbers. Key Figures Drive Forecast Based on reports, the model 
assumes daily transactions on XRP Ledger will hit $700 billion by 2030. It 
uses a one‑second transaction speed and the current 56.5 billion XRP supply. 
With a 10% discount rate and a five‑year adoption window, the study pegs a 
mid‑case price of $4,813 if about 10% of global payments run on XRPL. In a 
more bullish view, the researchers push store‑of‑value demand to $1 
quadrillion, which shoots the price beyond $9,000. Even a $100 trillion demand 
level would land XRP at $908 per token. Virtuous Cycle Could Fuel Growth Based 
on reports from Valhil Capital, the so‑called Virtuous Cycle Flywheel could 
spark a feedback loop. First, higher use of XRP for cross‑border payments and 
FX trades drives up demand. Then, price gains lure more holders to lock away 
their coins, shrinking the free float. That scarcity pushes prices even 
higher. As value climbs, new use cases could pop up, drawing in more users and 
adding another spin to the cycle. Regulation And Competition Loom Large XRP’s 
path to mass use isn’t smooth. Legal questions still swirl around its status 
in the US and elsewhere. That uncertainty may scare off big financial players. 
Plus, central bank digital currencies, stablecoins, and rival blockchains are 
all chasing the same slice of the cross‑border market. Related Reading: Crypto 
Bombshell: Developer Claims XRP Could Hit $20,000 Valhil Capital calls its 
forecast “conservative” because it skips markets like derivatives and real 
estate. Yet it also admits it can’t guess future rules or fresh ways people 
might use XRP. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

Ethereum is trading above $2,400 after enduring several days of volatility and 
uncertainty. The price has managed to stabilize despite sharp intraday swings, 
reflecting growing tension between bullish momentum and cautious sentiment. 
Analysts are now calling for a decisive move, with some expecting a breakout 
toward higher levels, while others warn of a possible correction if key demand 
zones fail to hold. Related Reading: Bitcoin Struggles Below ATH After Weeks 
Of Failed Attempts – $109K Level In Focus On one hand, ETH has shown strength 
by holding above its short-term support range, suggesting that buyers are 
stepping in with confidence. Bullish momentum appears to be building, 
especially as macro sentiment around risk assets begins to recover. On the 
other hand, opposing views point to weakening volume and lingering 
macroeconomic risks, which could trigger a deeper retracement if Ethereum 
fails to sustain current levels. Adding weight to the bullish case is fresh 
data from CryptoQuant, which highlights a strong accumulation pattern among 
long-term ETH holders. According to the data, significant buying pressure 
emerged during the recent consolidation phase, with hodlers steadily 
increasing their positions. This divergence between price action and 
accumulation behavior suggests that foundational support for Ethereum remains 
intact, even as traders await the next major move. Ethereum Accumulation 
Builds And Market Awaits Breakout Ethereum is struggling to reclaim the $2,500 
level, but its ability to hold steady amid ongoing market uncertainty is a 
sign of underlying strength. For weeks, ETH has traded within a well-defined 
range between $2,200 and $2,800, with neither bulls nor bears able to take 
decisive control. This prolonged consolidation has delayed the long- 
anticipated altseason, which many believe will only begin once Ethereum breaks 
above key resistance and pushes into higher territory. Despite the lack of 
clear direction, the macro setup is becoming increasingly interesting. Global 
markets remain volatile, with shifting interest rate expectations, 
geopolitical risk, and unpredictable liquidity conditions creating mixed 
signals across risk assets. Yet Ethereum continues to hold firm, supported not 
just by technical structure but also by significant long-term holder activity. 
According to insights from CryptoQuant, a strong accumulation pattern has been 
detected among Ethereum holders. During the June consolidation phase, long- 
term investors steadily increased their positions, even as price action 
remained choppy. This divergence between price and accumulation volume signals 
growing confidence under the surface. When price consolidates while demand 
builds, the result is often explosive. With ETH holding key support levels and 
long-term accumulation rising, the stage may be set for a major move. If 
Ethereum can push through $2,500 and reclaim higher ground, it could serve as 
the ignition point for a broader altcoin rally. Until then, the market remains 
in a state of quiet buildup. Something big is coming—and Ethereum is at the 
center of it. Related Reading: Ethereum Sees $269M In Net Inflows In 24H – 
Bullish Momentum Accelerates ETH Struggles With Resistance Amid Mixed Signals 
Ethereum is currently trading at $2,470 after failing to hold intraday gains 
above the $2,500 level. The 12-hour chart shows ETH consolidating within a 
broader range, with $2,200 acting as strong support and $2,800 as key 
resistance. Despite several bullish attempts, Ethereum has struggled to 
reclaim higher ground, and the rejection near the 100-period SMA (green line 
at $2,537) signals persistent selling pressure near resistance. The price is 
currently trading above the 200 SMA ($2,170) and just under the 50 SMA 
($2,507), which now acts as a short-term resistance. This tight positioning of 
moving averages suggests ETH is at a decision point—either it breaks through 
$2,500 to target $2,600 and higher, or it risks rolling over if bulls fail to 
hold momentum. Related Reading: ONDO Breaks Out Of Ascending Channel – Analyst 
Sets $0.29 Target Volume remains relatively flat, indicating indecision. The 
overall structure still favors a neutral-to-bullish bias, especially if price 
continues to close above the 200 SMA. However, a breakdown below $2,400 would 
increase the risk of a retest of the $2,200 support zone. Featured image from
