Market Forecast:
Stablecoins continued to increase this week, and both Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs in the United States saw net inflows. Both BTC and ETH fluctuated in a range. The RSI index was 47.21, showing neutrality. The Fear and Greed Index was mainly greedy. This week, the United States passed the "Big Beautiful Bill" of tax cuts and spending. The non-agricultural data in June was better than market expectations. The probability that the Federal Reserve would keep interest rates unchanged in July was 78.8%.
The price range of BTC is expected to be $106,000-$111,000 next week. You can focus on the US tariff agreement on July 9, which will be a heavy bomb in the summer. It seems that the impact on cryptocurrencies will not be higher than that in February, but it is also worth being vigilant. The wave of tokenization of US stocks is prevailing, and Hotcoin has been launched in this area.
