The post Crypto Market Weekly: Standard Chartered’s $100K BTC Target, Robinhood Chain Mania, and Circle’s Bank Charter appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The crypto market this week was shaped by bullish events such as returning ETF inflows and Bitcoin (BTC) moving to $64,000. But three other key events: Standard Chartered’s bullish forecast, hype around Robinhood Chain, and Circle receiving a bank charter also topped discussions. Standard Chartered Reiterates $100K Bitcoin Target as Crypto Market Rebounds Standard Chartered analyst Geoff Kendrick has reiterated his bullish forecast on BTC, saying Bitcoin will reach $100,000 by the end of 2026. The analyst noted that the current price of Bitcoin of $64,000 “is a screaming buy” because the fears around Strategy selling BTC will gradually ease as the crypto market comes to terms with the fact that the company has changed from a net buyer to an occasional seller. Kendricks’ remarks come after Strategy sold $216 million worth of Bitcoin

The post Avalanche (AVAX) Price Prediction: AVAX Slips Near $6.71 as ETF Removal, Bearish Patterns, and $6.50 Support Put Bulls Under Pressure appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
AVAX trades near $6.71 as ETF removal, bearish chart patterns, and weakening support raise the risk of a deeper move towards $6.50. AVAX price is trading near $6.71 after falling around 1% over the past 24 hours, based on Brave New Coin data. The move keeps AVAX close to a short-term support zone, but the latest market signals are not fully supportive of bulls. AVAX Faces Fresh Pressure After Bitwise ETF Removal The biggest sentiment hit comes from the Bitwise update. Wise Advice shared that Bitwise added HYPE to its Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF, while AVAX was removed at the same time. This matters because index inclusion can help an asset stay visible to institutional investors. Removal does not mean AVAX has no long-term value, but it does add pressure at a time when price action is already weak. For Avalan

The post Bitcoin’s $64K rebound has three days before its next big challenge threatens to derail momentum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin traded near $64,100 on Saturday as the clock ticked toward a key test for its rebound. June’s US consumer price index is due at 8:30 a.m. ET on July 14, leaving the market with about three days before the next major macro catalyst. The largest crypto asset had gained about 2.6% over seven days, according to CryptoSlate market data, but 24-hour volume was running 21% below its recent average. Bitcoin has rebounded, but buyers have yet to fully commit. The scheduled inflation report will hit a rates market that makes that gap harder to ignore. Futures-derived probabilities using CME FedWatch methodology put a 64.6% chance on the Federal Reserve holding its 3.50%-3.75% target range on July 29 and a 35.4% chance on a quarter-point hike.
