Market Overview
On July 30, the cryptocurrency market cap dipped nearly 4.8% to $3.95 trillion, with 92 of the top 100 coins trading lower. Bitcoin slipped about 0.7% to around $118,159, while Ethereum held steady, rising slightly to $3,817, marking the 18th consecutive day of ETF inflows. The U.S. Federal Reserve confirmed interest rates would remain at 4.25–4.50%, dampening rate-cut expectations and fueling risk-off sentiment in digital assets. Markets also awaited the White House crypto policy report expected later today, which may set the tone for regulation and industry direction.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin continues trading within a narrow range under $120K, currently near $118,159, as short-term volatility persists while structural interest remains intact. Analysts point to trading consolidation between $115K and $120K, with breakout potential above $120K targeting $123K–$125K. Despite this pullback, long-term holdings and low exchange reserves suggest accumulation—unrealized BTC profit has reached a record $1.41 trillion, highlighting possible near-term sell pressure.
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum is hovering around $3,817, up slightly on the day, and remains resilient amid broad altcoin weakness. ETF flows remain strong, with net inflows reaching $5.12 billion in July, supporting ETH’s structural strength despite volatility. Analysts expect support around $3,800–$3,700, while further upside toward $3,900–$4,000 remains plausible if inflows persist.
Solana (SOL)
Solana trades near $181–$185, down over 1%, suffering from ETF delays and leveraged sell-offs following earlier rapid gains. Whale rotation and decreased new address growth suggest caution, with key support zones between $180–$185 and resistance around $190 holding critical relevance.
XRP
XRP is priced around $3.14, down modestly (~0.5%) as investor attention focuses on upcoming ETF proposals and corridor linkages in Asian remittance corridors. Analysts view $3.10–$3.20 as a vital support range, with upside toward $3.50–$4.00 if ETF momentum resumes.
Dogecoin (DOGE)
DOGE trades near $0.2295, dropping about 5%, as speculative momentum faded amid risk-off sentiment. Support holds in the $0.22–$0.23 range, and recovery hinges on renewed social buzz or support from X tipping and Doginals development.
Cardano (ADA)
Cardano has slipped to around $0.787–$0.80, losing approximately 0.5%–1% as broader profit-taking persists. Infrastructure-driven narrative remains intact via Hydra and Mithril upgrades; however, ADA now needs to reclaim $0.82–$0.83 before targeting $0.90.
Shiba Inu (SHIB)
SHIB trades around $0.00001354, down from resistance and showing signs of burn-supported consolidation. Community activity remains steady, but momentum will depend on re-emerging memetic sentiment to break past $0.00001430–$0.00001450.
SUI
SUI has declined to approximately $3.95, down around 5%–6%, yet continues to outperform many mid-cap altcoins on developer and TVL growth metrics. Analysts suggest the $3.80–$4.00 range as key ballast, with potential upside toward $4.20–$4.50 if ETF narratives return.
Kaspa (KAS)
KAS trades around $0.09965, slipping nearly 5% in recent sessions as early breakout patterns cool off. Its technical base near $0.096–$0.099 appears intact; further gains may rely on renewed liquidity and retail interest.
Pi Network (PI)
PI is steady around $0.4384, drifting modestly lower, as market focus remains on upcoming mainnet milestones. Without exchange listings, PI remains speculative—major catalysts may arrive with roadmap disclosures or broader ecosystem activation.

The Road Ahead: Fed Pause, Policy Signals & ETF Drivers
Today’s pullback reflects overall rate stability from the Fed, reinforcing the expectation of no near-term cutting and dampening aggressive crypto flows—especially in high-beta altcoins. Spot ETF inflows remain robust—$80M into BTC and $65M into ETH—suggesting broader investor conviction despite intraday losses.
The White House crypto report released today outlines recommended regulatory structures supporting stablecoin clarity, DeFi integration, and institutional participation. Institutional outlook remains positive even as volatility surfaces.
Markets now await the August FOMC update, potential altcoin ETF rulings, and corporate treasury adoption trends—including Strategic Bitcoin Reserve developments—to shape near-term direction. While Bitcoin and Ethereum remain anchored by inflows and technical structures, altcoins like SOL, XRP, ADA, and SUI may rely on renewed sentiment or regulatory guidance to rekindle momentum.
Diversification and risk management remain essential as markets digest macro cues and watch for policy clarity.
