The post New Hampshire rejects $100M Bitcoin-backed bond proposal appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
New Hampshire’s Executive Council on July 8 cast a 3-2 vote to block a $100 million municipal bond that would have been secured by Bitcoin, ending a program promoted by Governor Kelly Ayotte and finance officials as the first initiative of its kind in the country. The vote halted the approach that the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority (BFA) spent months developing after the board approved a $100 million first issue last November. However, the deal had always required the approval of the Governor and the Executive Council. According to the Boston Globe, Councilor Karen Liot Hill made a motion to table the motion at the meeting on Wednesday, and since no one supported her, it went to a vote to decide what to do. Liot Hill, the only Democrat in the Council, joined the Republicans Janet Stevens and David Wheeler to vote against the proposal while Joseph Kenney and John Stephen vote

The post XRP price jumps 2% on bitcoin strength as buyers push through $1.10 resistance appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
• The main breakout came around 01:00 UTC, when volume jumped to 43.51 million XRP, about 88% above the 24-hour average. • The move carried XRP to an intraday high of $1.1065 before price stabilized near $1.1020-$1.1040. • A later 60-minute spike reached 14.17 million in volume, pushing XRP from $1.0958 to $1.1052 before profit-taking slowed the move. Technical Analysis • The key development is that XRP cleared the $1.0950-$1.1000 area after several sessions of range-bound trading. • The breakout was supported by volume, which gives the move more weight than the earlier low-volume attempts above resistance. • Higher lows through the session show buyers are stepping in earlier, with $1.0880 acting as the main support level during pullbacks. • The post-breakout hold near $1.1020-$1.1040 is constructive because XRP did not immediately lose the $1.10 area after the s

The post Bitcoin demand stays weak despite $1B USDT injection – Here is why! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin is showing a textbook spot-versus-derivatives divergence. However, how this setup plays out depends on the broader macro environment. In a risk-on market, higher derivatives activity can support more upside. In a risk-off market, rising leverage increases the risk of a sharp correction. Recent U.S.-Iran uncertainty brought macro FUD back into the market. However, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index held above extreme fear. That resilience has revived the debate over whether BTC’s bear market could be nearing its end. History, however, tells a different story. As the chart shows, Bitcoin’s current bear market has lasted 248 days. By comparison, the 2022 bear market lasted 381 days, while the 2018 one lasted 385 days, suggesting the current cycle may still have further room to run.
