The post RWA news: A DEX trader holds $1 million EUR/USD bullish bet for 400 Days appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The term “HODLing,” crypto slang for buying and holding an asset for a long time, has historically been associated almost exclusively with bitcoin BTC$62,946.60 and ether (ETH). One trader has now applied the same long-term approach to perpetual futures tied to the euro-dollar pair (EUR/USD) listed on the decentralized exchange (DEX) Ostium, which is powered by Nasdaq data. A trader has held a long position in EUR/USD worth $1,139,490 for 400 days, Ostrium said on Tuesday. The bullish bet, expecting the euro to strengthen against the U.S. dollar, was opened around early June 2025. EUR/USD traded above 1.14 as of this writing, largely unchanged from where it was in June last year, but it did rise as high as 1.2082 in January this year. Onchain FX trading offered by platforms such as Ostium, Gains Network, Synthetix, GMX, and others remains a very tiny fraction of the gl
The post Solana Sees DEX Rival Robinhood Chain Surge to 29% of Its Volume appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Solana News Solana’s dominance in decentralized exchange activity faces a fresh challenger after Robinhood Chain, the brokerage’s new layer-2 network, rapidly scaled its trading volume within a single day. On-chain data shows Robinhood Chain recorded roughly $563.9 million in spot DEX volume on July 8, climbing to about 29.1% of Solana’s tally. Solana itself processed close to $1.94 billion over the same window, keeping a commanding lead of roughly 3.4 times its emerging rival. The comparison draws on aggregated on-chain trade data, offering a direct read of settlement activity as capital rotates toward newly launched venues in the DeFi landscape. The pace of Robinhood Chain’s ascent underscores how quickly liquidity can migrate between networks. Just one day earlier, on July 7, the chain had logged only $58.9 million in spot volume — equal to about 2.6% of Solana’s $2.25 bill
The post Ethereum (ETH) Rises 8% Weekly: Is a Bigger Pump Coming Next? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
“ETH to $2,500 before September,” one analyst predicted. The second-largest cryptocurrency has rebounded from the local bottoms witnessed last month, and now multiple analysts believe the price is ready to jump even higher. Growing institutional interest supports the bullish thesis and could indeed pave the way for a more substantial upward move. $2K Comes Next? As of press time, ETH trades at around $1,750, representing an 8% increase over the past week and a 17% rise from its June low. X user Ted noted that the asset recently tapped the $1,820-$1,850 resistance zone but got rejected. At the same time, he highlighted ETH’s ability to hold the $1,750 support and predicted that a decisive breakout could open the door for a rally toward $2,000. Earlier this week, Poseidon claimed that ETH has formed a double bottom under $1,800 and wondered why some people expect a decline given

The post Bitcoin Climbs to $63,000 as Markets Shrug Off Iran Airstrikes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin News Bitcoin (BTC) climbed 1.2% to around $63,000 on Thursday as digital-asset markets shook off a fresh round of U.S. airstrikes on Iran, with our reading of the tape showing risk appetite tracking equities higher. U.S. forces struck 90 military targets in the latest escalation, yet Nasdaq 100 index futures added 2.6% over 24 hours and crypto followed. The move leaves Bitcoin roughly 9% above its June monthly close, extending a recovery that began at the start of July. On-chain flow data shows buyers stepping in from oversold territory, underscoring how quickly the market has priced past the geopolitical shock. The rebound followed a sharp reversal earlier in the week, when Bitcoin fell more than 3% to about $61,500 after President Donald Trump declared the fragile U.S.-Iran ceasefire over at the NATO summit. Ether and Solana slid alongside it as traders trimmed risk, w
The post Romance Scam Suspect’s Crypto Wallet Processed $122M: Interpol appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
A crypto wallet linked to a suspected romance-scam money launderer processed more than $122.5 million in 10 months, according to Interpol, as authorities expanded a global crackdown on online fraud. Interpol said Thursday that Thai authorities arrested two suspects and uncovered a money-laundering network that funneled proceeds from romance scams into cryptocurrencies, using cross-chain token swaps to obscure the trail. The Thai investigation was part of Operation First Light 2026, an Interpol-coordinated campaign targeting social engineering scams and the financial infrastructure used to launder their proceeds. The operation involved authorities in 97 countries and territories, resulting in 5,811 arrests and the seizure of $293 million in illicit assets tied to fraud and money laundering. Tomonobu Kaya, director of Interpol’s Financial Crime and Anti-Corruption Centre, said soc
