Bitcoin sold off near the $110,000 ceiling, but the price reset could give BNB, SOL, LINK and AAVE a chance to rally.

Bitcoin hits resistance at $110K, but BNB, SOL, LINK, AAVE show promise

Dogecoin’s price action caught traders’ attention this week. After dipping 
toward the $0.13–$0.15 demand zone, the meme‑coin shot higher, and a surge in 
derivatives data suggests many expect more gains. Related Reading: Ethereum

Climbs Around $0.19 Resistance According to market data, Open Interest jumped 
by 16% to reach over $2 billion. Options volume exploded by 400%. That kind of 
rise often points to big bets on upward swings. Right now, many eyes are on 
the $0.20 resistance level. If DOGE can close a daily candle above that line, 
it may clear the way toward $0.27. Dogecoin’s technical setup is drawing fresh 
looks from chart watchers. The Stochastic RSI crossed above 80, which can mark 
an overbought zone. Yet coins have stayed above overbought readings before 
when buyers kept pushing. Traders will want to see real volume behind any move 
above that descending trendline near $0.19. Without it, the rally may stall or 
give back gains. Whales Return With Spot Inflows Based on reports, Dogecoin 
saw a net inflow of $8.20 million into spot wallets. That marks a big shift 
after weeks of outflows. Large holders have been moving coins onto exchanges 
in the past, but now they’re pulling more in. In other cycles, fresh whale 
buys have lined up with mid‑term rallies. On‑chain metrics add another layer. 
Dogecoin’s MVRV Z‑score climbed back to 0.355 after hitting near‑historical 
lows late in June. That figure measures how much profit holders stand to make 
on average. A rising score hints that fewer holders are underwater, and that 
might draw in new buyers. Still, MVRV is backward‑looking. It can’t predict if 
price will break through key resistance. Network Activity Shows Mixed Signals 
Network stats tell a mixed story. Daily active addresses slid to 34 K, and 
transaction counts dropped to 15K as of July 3. That’s a sharp fall from the 
more than 500K addresses and transactions seen in the last week of June. Lower 
usage could sap the rally’s legs if retail traders don’t reengage soon.

H1 2025 Lead Even with these mixed signals, the mood toward Dogecoin is 
brighter than it was a week ago. Traders piling into options and hikes in Open 
Interest show speculative appetite is up. Large spot inflows show that whales 
have stepped back in. But network usage is lagging. If daily addresses and 
transactions don’t bounce back, bulls may find it harder to sustain the push.

BCH-Based Stablecoin Protocol Moria Passes Security Audit With Flying Colors

Chainlink (LINK) is trading at $13.36, following a 3% drop in the past 24 
hours, which places the altcoin approximately 74% below its all-time high of 
$52.70, recorded in May. Despite this short-term dip, LINK has held onto 
weekly gains of around 2.4%, suggesting broader market participants may still 
be weighing its long-term potential. While price remains rangebound, recent 
on-chain data indicates that LINK’s price action could be the result of 
diverging behavior between retail and institutional investors. Related

Chainlink Institutional Accumulation and Supply Pressure CryptoQuant 
contributor “Banker” highlighted a growing structural dynamic in the LINK 
ecosystem in a recent QuickTake analysis titled “LINK’s Accumulation Standoff: 
Whales Build, Retail Waits.” The report outlines how LINK is currently in a 
consolidation phase between $12 and $15, where institutional actors have been 
steadily accumulating tokens, while retail users remain largely passive. This 
discrepancy may be playing a key role in capping upward momentum despite 
persistent LINK outflows from centralized exchanges. According to Banker, 
exchange netflows for LINK have remained negative at roughly -100,000 LINK per 
week, signaling that more tokens are being withdrawn from trading platforms 
than deposited. This behavior is typically associated with accumulation 
activity, particularly from larger holders or “whales” who may be positioning 
for longer-term appreciation. Historical spikes in retail deposits, such as 
the +5 million LINK deposited in March 2025, have proven to be exceptions 
rather than the norm, as retail activity has since remained subdued. 
Supporting this view, active LINK addresses have hovered consistently between 
28,000 and 32,000 per day, while transaction counts average around 9,000 
daily. These figures have not rebounded from previous activity peaks seen in 
late 2024, even as Chainlink’s oracle usage has expanded. Meanwhile, elevated 
levels of exchange withdrawals, peaking at over 3,000 per day in Q4 2024, 
remain a dominant force. With leverage metrics staying neutral, whales have 
been able to withdraw LINK without introducing significant price volatility, 
resulting in a 40% year-to-date drop in exchange reserves. Market Outlook 
Hinges on Retail Reentry or Whale Fatigue As LINK’s consolidation persists, 
the path forward may depend on a shift in market dynamics. Banker points out 
that a meaningful breakout will likely require renewed participation from 
retail traders, as evidenced by a spike in active wallet addresses and 
transaction volume. Related Reading: Chainlink Holders Set Record As 1-Yr MVRV 
Signals ‘Opportunity’ If these metrics rise and price breaks above the $15 
price mark, momentum could build for a stronger upward trend. On the other 
hand, a decline in whale-driven withdrawals or an increase in exchange inflows 
could weaken accumulation, potentially pushing LINK back down toward the $10 
level. Banker added: Until catalysts emerge, whales silently build positions, 
echoing Bitcoin’s 2023 consolidation before its 2024 surge. Featured image

Ethereum Options Show Bullish Bias Despite Surge in Put Trading Volume

Proponents of XRP are stepping up their pitch this week, calling the token 
“one of the greatest wealth transfers in history.” They argue it’s more than 
just another crypto. You’ll hear claims that XRP is already reshaping global 
finance and leaving old systems in the dust. According to influencer Coach JV, 
Ripple is building a whole new rails for money. He says XRP isn’t here to 
compete with banks. It’s here to replace them. Related Reading: Ethereum 
Network Awakens—Massive On-Chain Moves Signal What’s Coming He points out that 
transactions on the XRP Ledger settle in 3–5 seconds and cost fractions of a 
penny. That beats SWIFT transfers, which can take days and cost up to $50 per 
payment. XRP still trades around $2,25 but that figure, he argues, won’t stay 
low for long if the token keeps winning regulatory approvals and new partners. 
XRP is the most disruptive financial technology of our lifetime. Ripple isn’t 
just competing with the banking system, it’s replacing it. The old system is 
dead. The new financial rails are being laid right before your eyes. Stay 
asleep and you’ll miss the greatest wealth transfer… — Coach, JV (@Coachjv_) 
July 2, 2025 Ripple’s Technology Versus Legacy Rails Based on reports, 
RippleNet now counts more than 300 financial institutions in its network. Yet 
daily on‑chain volumes for XRP hover around $1 billion—small next to global 
cross‑border flows of roughly $150 billion per day. Banks are testing the 
tech, but most haven’t shifted large sums yet. That gap between tests and 
real‑world use is one reason XRP’s price has stayed below its all‑time high 
for seven years. Push For Regulatory Clarity XRP backers are watching the US 
carefully. They see growing buzz around spot XRP ETFs. Analysts like Eric 
Balchunas have given those filings up to 95% odds of approval by year‑end. If 
an ETF hits a US exchange, they say, more money will pour in. Ripple has also 
been chasing money‑transmitter licenses in Europe and Asia. Every new license, 
they believe, brings Ripple a step closer to mainstream use. Community Calls 
For Patience Coach JV keeps telling followers not to panic over a stagnant 
price. He uses phrases like “greatest wealth transfer in history” to drive 
home his point. In an earlier tweet, he promised “unimaginable wealth” for 
anyone who holds on. Other voices, such as commentator Edoardo Farina, point 
out that only about 1 to 2 million people hold XRP today. That number, they 
say, leaves room for 100 million or more newcomers—and more buyers often means 
higher prices. Related Reading: The Silent Bitcoin Accumulation: Public 
Companies’ Surprising H1 2025 Lead Analysts Caution Over Hype Even so, some 
experts urge caution. They note that bold forecasts don’t guarantee buy‑in 
from big banks or regulators. An ETF approval won’t force funds to rush in 
overnight. And test programs don’t always turn into full rollouts. For now, 
XRP remains a high‑risk play. Investors should track on‑chain metrics and 
regulatory milestones before getting swept up in the hype. Featured image from
