#GENIUSActPass Each bank will issue a stablecoin after the approval of the GENIUS Act: CTO of Alchemy

Guillaume Poncin from Alchemy predicts that the approval of the Genius Act will soon attract major financial institutions to the stablecoin business.

The U.S. Senate has approved the Genius Act, which brings the long-awaited regulatory clarity to stablecoins. With this advancement, major financial institutions are expected to launch their own stablecoins. Guillaume Poncin, Chief Technology Officer of Alchemy, gave an interview to crypto.news. Alchemy collaborates with Visa, Coinbase, Stripe, and Robinhood in the issuance of stablecoins.

So far, major banks have been waiting for clear regulations, a need that the new bill addresses. Poncin believes that in the future, each bank will issue its own stablecoin and operate its own blockchain.

#MyTradingStyle Los estilos de trading que mas realizo son Scalping y Swing.

El swing trading es un estilo que se centra en abrir una posición dentro de un movimiento más amplio. Consiste en mantener una operación durante varios días o semanas para aprovechar las fluctuaciones del mercado a corto y mediano plazo.

El objetivo principal del swing trading es detectar una tendencia y aprovechar las caídas y los picos que ofrecen puntos de entrada. Un swing trader utiliza el análisis técnico para identificar estos puntos clave del precio. Busca dos tipos de movimiento del mercado: un máximo, cuando el precio sube, y un mínimo, cuando el precio baja.

Un swing bajo indica una oportunidad para comprar una posición larga o vender una posición corta , mientras que un swing alto es una oportunidad para vender una posición larga o abrir una posición corta. Los swing traders suelen buscar mercados con alta volatilidad , ya que son los mercados donde es más probable que se produzcan oscilaciones.

El scalping es una estrategia de trading dinámica que se centra en capturar pequeños movimientos de precios rentables, frecuentes y frecuentes. Puede parecer abrumador al principio, pero con concentración y práctica, los nuevos operadores pueden aprender a desenvolverse en el vertiginoso mundo del scalping y comprender cómo incluso pequeños movimientos en el mercado pueden generar ganancias constantes.

El scalping se centra en capturar pequeños movimientos de precios, a menudo de tan solo unos pocos pips o centavos por operación. Los scalpers son operadores intradía que ejecutan numerosas transacciones a lo largo del día, a veces incluso cientos, para acumular pequeñas ganancias consistentes que se van acumulando con el tiempo.

Esta estrategia suele implicar apalancamiento para aumentar las ganancias, lo que también incrementa el riesgo. Por eso, la disciplina es clave. Dado que las ganancias por operación son pequeñas, dudar al salir de una operación perdedora puede generar pérdidas difíciles de recuperar.

#FOMCMeeting What to expect from this week's Federal Reserve meeting on interest rates

The Federal Reserve is likely to stick to its "wait and see" mantra next week, setting the stage for a showdown with the president.

The Federal Reserve is expected to keep its key interest rate stable when the central bank's monetary policy committee meets on Wednesday, potentially provoking even more anger from President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly demanded that the Fed, which is not under the direct control of the White House, cut its benchmark interest rate by one percentage point.

Early Monday, financial markets estimated a nearly 100% probability that the Fed will leave the benchmark rate unchanged this week, according to the CME Group's FedWatch tool, which forecasts rate movements based on futures trading data for Fed funds.

In recent weeks, Federal Reserve officials have been reluctant to lower interest rates from their current elevated levels, as they are concerned that Trump's tariffs could reignite high inflation, which has dropped at an almost unstoppable pace from the Federal Reserve's 2% annual target, after soaring in the post-pandemic era.

For his part, Trump has frequently criticized the Federal Reserve for not cutting rates this year, even calling its chairman, Jerome Powell, an "idiot."

A lower federal funds interest rate could boost the economy and foster job creation, but it could also relieve some of the downward pressure on inflation.

Fed officials have been under a "quiet" communication period in the past week before the meeting, but before going silent, members of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) indicated that they wanted to see how the economy responded to Trump's tariffs before making any policy decisions.

#MetaplanetBTCPurchase The milestone of 10,000 bitcoin (BTC) under management has already been completed by the Japanese company Metaplanet.

Following the strategy of Michael Saylor and Strategy, this company achieved its accumulation goal for 2025 ahead of schedule.

Simon Gerovich, who is the CEO of that Japanese company, revealed that they reached the target of 10,000 bitcoin in reserve with the most recent acquisition of 1,112 BTC. Now, that company has a treasury valued at over USD 1.050 billion.

In January of this year, Metaplanet announced that they would close 2025 with a treasury of over 10,000 bitcoin, as reported by CriptoNoticias. At that time, Gerovich stated that they would use capital market tools to reach this goal, which has now been achieved.

Some of those tools included issuing debt to continue purchasing bitcoin. This is a strategy initially carried out by Strategy, the public company with the largest amount of BTC under custody, and has been widely replicated among corporations that have their bitcoin treasuries.

Indeed, since January, Metaplanet's BTC purchases have been sustained, as shown in the graph below.

#VietnamCryptoPolicy Vietnam aprobó una ley que reconoce oficialmente los activos digitales y criptográficos, dando un paso decisivo hacia la regulación y promoción de la economía de las criptomonedas.

La Ley de la Industria de Tecnología Digital se aprobó el 14 de junio y entrará en vigor el 1 de enero de 2026. Describe un marco amplio para gestionar los activos digitales y fomentar la innovación en blockchain, según los medios locales .

Este reconocimiento legal se produce en un momento en que Vietnam busca mejorar su posición en el ranking del Grupo de Acción Financiera Internacional (GAFI), organización internacional que establece estándares para combatir el lavado de dinero y la financiación del terrorismo.

El país figura en la lista gris del GAFI por sus insuficientes controles contra el lavado de dinero, en particular en lo que respecta a los activos virtuales.

La legislación clasifica los activos digitales en dos grupos: activos virtuales y criptoactivos. Si bien ambos quedan fuera de las definiciones financieras tradicionales, como valores o monedas digitales emitidas por bancos centrales, los criptoactivos se clasifican por el uso del cifrado para validar su creación y transferencias.

La ley otorga al gobierno vietnamita la autoridad para definir condiciones regulatorias específicas, incluidas medidas contra el lavado de dinero y estándares de ciberseguridad alineados con las normas internacionales.

$BTC Bitcoin prices could come under pressure amid rising tensions in the Middle East and market uncertainty

Bitcoin falls $2,000 as tensions in the Middle East rise, with Trump’s early exit from the G7 fueling market volatility and investor caution amid geopolitical uncertainty.

The recent escalation of the conflict in the Middle East has triggered a swift reaction in cryptocurrency markets, with Bitcoin losing over $2,000 in a matter of hours. This drop highlights the increasing correlation of the asset with global risk factors, particularly geopolitical instability.

The price of Bitcoin, which briefly reached an intraday high of $108,780, retreated to about $106,421 before stabilizing slightly. This movement reflects a general market pattern in which investors reevaluate their risk exposure amid international tensions.

Historically, Bitcoin has been viewed as a potential safe haven in times of economic uncertainty, but its behavior during acute geopolitical crises suggests a more complex dynamic. The current price dynamics indicate that, while Bitcoin retains certain hedging qualities, it remains vulnerable to rapid sell-offs when global uncertainty increases, especially when traditional markets also experience volatility.

The early withdrawal of U.S. President Donald Trump from the G7 summit in Canada, coupled with his urgent social media warning to evacuate Tehran, has heightened market nerves. These events have increased alertness among investors, as reflected in the immediate reaction of the cryptocurrency market. The National Security Council's preparation in the White House Situation Room further underscores the severity of the situation, contributing to risk aversion.

#TrumpBTCTreasury The strategist of the Republican Party Chris LaCivita, one of the architects of the winning presidential campaign of American President Donald Trump in 2024, pointed out the acceptance of cryptocurrencies by the commander in chief during two terms as a key axis for his political comeback.

Speaking at the Coinbase State of Crypto summit in New York City on Thursday, LaCivita said that targeting so-called crypto voters helped President Trump court many supporters, particularly those who belong to voter blocks that have traditionally shown to be less likely to vote for Republican candidates.

"The only thing we discovered was that [the crypto voter] spans many different socioeconomic areas, and it really was an available voter block," said LaCivita, adding that cryptocurrencies served as a bridge for the Republican Party to connect with African American and Asian American voters, as well as with young people.

According to a Pew Research report published in 2024, both Black and Asian Americans report higher rates of cryptocurrency ownership than their white counterparts. The data shows that 28% of Asian Americans and approximately 20% of Black adults reported owning cryptocurrencies, compared to only 14% of white adults.

$BTC The difficulty of Bitcoin mining decreases slightly after reaching all-time highs

The difficulty of Bitcoin mining has decreased slightly after reaching its highest level at the end of May.

On Saturday, June 15, the network recorded a small but notable decrease in its difficulty, reducing it to approximately 126.4 trillion. This follows the all-time high of 126.9 trillion reached on May 31, according to data from the blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant.

The drop is slight, but marks a milestone for mining. Bitcoin's difficulty adjusts automatically approximately every two weeks to reflect changes in the total hash rate, the sum of the computing power of all miners seeking solutions for the Bitcoin network.

As more miners join the network, the difficulty increases to maintain block production at regular intervals. When miners cease operations due to costs or inefficiency, the adjustment difficulty decreases.

The hashrate remains robust, surpassing a psychological barrier of 1 zettahash per second (ZH/s) in April.

Rising costs pose a challenge for miners
Although it remains somewhat less difficult, several miners are struggling with heavier workloads.

The halving in April 2024, a scheduled phenomenon that reduces the Bitcoin block reward by half every four years, drastically cut the reward for successfully mining a block from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC for miners, resulting in half the income for the same work.

Factors such as rising electricity prices, increased hardware costs, and pressure to stay updated with the latest technological innovations have pushed many small or medium mining operations to the brink.

#CardanoDebate ¿Cardano at $0.67? Epic Prediction from the Bollinger Bands

Cardano (ADA) shows signs of recovery in the cryptocurrency market, with its price increasing from $0.6291 to $0.6441. As indicated by the Bollinger Bands trend for Cardano, the current setup presents significant recovery potential for the asset.

According to data from CoinMarketCap, Cardano is currently trading at $0.6330, which represents a 0.21% increase in the last 24 hours. This reflects a slight correction from the peak reached in previous trading sessions.

This price trend is around the lower range of the Bollinger Bands, a bullish signal for ADA. It is noteworthy that after reaching this lower band, the price can only follow an upward trend. Cardano could begin to rise if the bulls regain full control of the trend.

This reversal could cause ADA to bounce back to between $0.67 and $0.70 if market participants reactivate their interest in Cardano. At the time of this edition's closure, the volume has decreased by 46.33%, down to $589.3 million. For the asset to experience a surge, investors must actively buy the coin to support a price increase.

Recently, Cardano whales acquired over 120 million ADA in 48 hours, anticipating bullish turns. However, the current volume, at the time of writing this article, indicates that these large holders have pulled back. For Cardano to maintain a surge, these large holders must activate and sustain the momentum.

$ADA The whales ADA accumulate 120 million, but they will not surpass this leading cryptocurrency in reaching 2 dollars

The Cardano whales are acquiring 120 million ADA tokens in a frenzy over 48 hours, indicating strong confidence in the cryptocurrency market.

With a price between $0.61 and $0.72, the rise of ADA reflects strong buying pressure.

However, despite this momentum, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is stealing the spotlight.

Currently in phase 5 of its presale at $0.03, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) has raised $10,600,000, sold over 550 million tokens, and attracted 12,000 holders.

This new cryptocurrency promises a 100% return on investment at its launch price of $0.06.

Investors are excited about its potential to surpass Cardano and reach 2 dollars, making it one of the best cryptocurrencies to buy now.

The massive purchases of Cardano are fueling optimism in the cryptocurrency market.

Whales have recently acquired 120 million ADA tokens, increasing buying pressure.

On-chain data reveals a growing buying dominance of Taker, indicating aggressive buy orders.

The delta of accumulated volume also shows consistent demand over 90 days.

Short sellers faced liquidations of $251,000, amplifying the upward momentum of ADA to $0.7242.

However, ADA is struggling to break the resistance of its wedge pattern. Without a major volume breakout, it could stagnate.

Additionally, Cardano's methodical growth is lagging behind newer projects.

Investors observing cryptocurrency prices today are seeking faster profits elsewhere, highlighting Mutuum Finance (MUTM) as a stronger contender.

Why have mass protests in the United States not driven down cryptocurrency prices?

In Los Angeles, significant protests are taking place. These demonstrations have escalated in recent days to other states.

The situation has generated notable tension in the city, even leading to the imposition of a curfew.

So, why have these mass protests in a city as important as Los Angeles not dragged cryptocurrency prices down?

In fact, if we observe recent behavior, we see a mixed picture: while Bitcoin has recorded a slight drop in the last 24 hours, other major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and several altcoins have shown slight growth.

The answer lies in the very nature of the cryptocurrency market and the factors that truly influence its prices.

Key Factors That Move the Cryptocurrency Market:
The price of cryptocurrencies is determined by a complex interaction of factors on a global scale, among which stand out:
- Supply and Demand.
- Government Regulations.
- Institutional Adoption.
- Market Sentiment (Euphoria and Fear).
- Global Macroeconomic Factors.
- Technology and Security.

Moreover, the cryptocurrency market is not tied to the economy or events of a single city or even a single country. It operates 24/7 through a global network of participants.

Therefore, although the protests in Los Angeles are a socially and politically significant event at the local and national level, their ability to influence the global and decentralized cryptocurrency market is, in practice, negligible. Cryptocurrency investors in Asia, Europe, or South America are more attentive to decisions from the Federal Reserve, regulations on crypto in their continents, or the next major technological development in the sector, rather than disturbances in a U.S. city, no matter how significant they may be.

#NasdaqETFUpdate Should the Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF (QQQM) be on your investment radar?

If you are interested in broad exposure to the large-cap growth segment of the U.S. stock market, look no further than the Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF (QQQM), a passively managed exchange-traded fund launched on 10/13/2020.

The fund is sponsored by Invesco. It has accumulated over $49.6 billion in assets, making it one of the largest ETFs aiming to match the large-cap growth segment of the U.S. stock market.

Large-cap companies typically have a market capitalization exceeding $10 billion. Generally, they tend to be a stable option, with lower risk and more secure cash flows than mid-cap and small-cap companies.
Growth stocks exhibit above-average sales and earnings growth rates. While they are expected to grow faster than the overall market, they also come with higher valuations. Moreover, growth stocks carry a higher level of risk. When comparing growth and value, growth stocks are often the clear winners in strong bull markets, but they tend to plummet in almost all other environments.

#TradingMistakes101 Common trading mistakes you should avoid as a trader

Trading seems very simple. After all, the price can only go up or down, so traders just have to choose the right direction and wait for the money to flow, right? Well, not quite.

The world of trading can be full of surprises for those with big ideas but little preparation. When unprepared traders fail to recognize that mistakes in trading are part of the learning process and can, in fact, turn a person into a successful trader.

1. Trading without a trading plan
Every trader needs a trading plan. If you don’t have one, it’s time to get one, and the best way to start is by reflecting on your trading goal.

2. Overtrading too soon
Due to the potential of making money through trading, the temptation, especially for novice traders, is to push the limits in hopes of gaining larger profits quickly.

3. Emotional trading
We’ve all experienced that feeling when you’re on a winning streak and feel like you can’t do anything wrong. When traders apply that to trading, it’s usually when you experience a string of profitable trades and feel like you’ve got it mastered. But all winning streaks come to an end, and it’s crucial to remember that because, in the end, there’s money at stake.

4. Guessing
If traders enter a trade without any preparation, they are not really traders.
In fact, trading without putting in the effort to educate oneself or understand how the markets work is more like walking into a casino, betting money on roulette, and hoping everything goes well.

5. Excessive leverage
The ability to use leverage is one of the main attractions of markets like forex. Indices, precious metals, and cryptocurrencies. Leverage allows you to trade with much larger positions even with a smaller investment capital.

#CryptoCharts101 What charts should cryptocurrency investors use?

Many investors and traders are exploring ways to profit from cryptocurrencies. Being familiar with technical analysis is important if an investor wants to trade cryptocurrencies.

Charts are the main tool of the technician, and there are many different types. Their purpose is to provide a visual representation of price action.

Line charts
Line charts are the most basic type of chart used in technical analysis. They usually use a single data point: the closing price. To identify the trend, a series of closing prices is plotted on a chart and connected to form a line.

BTC Bar Chart
Bar charts (open, high, low, close chart)
Bar charts contain more information than line charts. The open, high, low, and close values are used for each bar plotted on a chart. These charts are commonly referred to as OHLC (open, high, low, close).

Candlestick charts
Like bar charts, candlestick charts use the open, high, low, and close, but their representation is more visual and has become very popular among traders. In fact, candlestick charts are one of the most popular in the West and are available on all trading platforms.

Support and Resistance Levels
Support and resistance levels are important and recognizable on a chart, where supply and demand converge. Learning to recognize them can help the trader enter and exit successfully.

Resistance
Resistance levels are formed when supply matches demand. In an uptrend, prices rise until they reach a level where demand no longer exceeds supply.

#SouthKoreaCryptoPolicy South Korea appoints a blockchain advocate as head of policies

The appointment of Kim Yong Bum as head of policies by President Lee Jae-myung has generated repercussions in South Korea's cryptocurrency community, with industry observers noting the new official's advocacy for digital assets as a possible catalyst for the development of stablecoins.

Kim, former First Vice Minister of Strategy and Finance, brings both traditional economic credentials and blockchain experience to the position, raising expectations that the administration may adopt a more favorable stance towards cryptocurrency innovation as the country works to finalize its regulatory framework on stablecoins.

What has captured the attention of the cryptocurrency community is Kim's career after his time in government. After completing his public service during the Moon Jae-in administration, Kim became CEO of the blockchain think tank Hashid Open Research.

Most notably, he has advocated for the introduction of a stablecoin backed by the won, according to reports from MK.

This background sets Kim apart from typical government appointees. "Although he was a former bureaucrat, he is also said to have knowledge of the real economy," MK reported, noting that "President Lee would also have valued Kim's experience in the private sector".

$BTC Bitcoin approaches the resistance of $107,500 after recovering $106,000 amidst renewed momentum

Bitcoin recovers $106,000, targeting a resistance of $107,500 amid strong on-chain activity and institutional interest, indicating potential for further bullish momentum.

The recent surge of Bitcoin above $106,000 reflects a significant shift in market dynamics, underscored by a gain of 3.27% over the last month.

This movement comes after a volatile period in early June, where BTC briefly fell below $101,000 but quickly recovered.

The volume-to-market capitalization ratio of 1.72% and consistent on-chain metrics indicate that Bitcoin remains under strong control by long-term holders and institutional investors.

The immediate resistance level of $107,500 is crucial, as it represents the previous peak from late May. A successful breakout of this level could drive new gains, potentially pushing Bitcoin towards the psychological milestone of $110,000, which has remained elusive during the current cycle.

#CryptoFees101 Stable project adopts Tether's USDT for fast transaction fees

A new project called Stable is being developed to create a blockchain, a kind of digital ledger to record transactions, which will use Tether's USDT, the largest stablecoin, to pay transaction fees.

Bitfinex, a cryptocurrency exchange platform, and USDT0, a company affiliated with Tether that facilitates the operation of USDT across various blockchains, support this project. Tether's CEO, Paolo Ardoino, is guiding the project, aimed at large financial companies, not the general public.

The Stable team is excited about a feature called "business lines," which will streamline transactions and solve issues such as high costs and the unreliability of current blockchain systems.

According to reports, USDT manages over $100 billion in daily transactions, but current setups can be precarious and expensive. Stable aims to simplify and strengthen the management of banks and financial entities.

Those developing Stable are experts in technology, finance, and cryptocurrencies, but their names have not yet been made public. Stablecoins like USDT are popular for their utility; some people in developing countries use them to protect their money's value, and large financial companies, including the family of U.S. President Donald Trump, are exploring them.

#BigTechStablecoin Say goodbye to bank fees! The Big Tech stablecoin revolution is about to change your wallet FOREVER

Great news is emerging in the world of Big Tech and cryptocurrencies! 🤑 Major players like Apple 🍎, X from Elon Musk 🐦, Airbnb 🏠, Google 🌐, and Uber 🚗 are exploring ways to use stablecoins—cryptocurrency tokens linked to the US dollar—for payments. Why? To make transactions faster, cheaper, and easier across borders 🌍.

Sources say these companies are in preliminary talks with cryptocurrency firms and payment processors like Stripe and Worldpay to assess the landscape. What's the goal? To bypass the costly fees charged by traditional card networks like Visa and Mastercard 💳 and leverage blockchain technology for fast and low-cost payments. This shift could save millions in fees and revolutionize how Big Tech moves money! 🚀💵

Why the sudden interest? 🧐 Stablecoins are gaining serious followers. Google Cloud already accepts PayPal's PYUSD stablecoin from some clients. X (formerly Twitter), Airbnb, and Apple are exploring how to integrate stablecoin payments into their apps—whether it's X's new payment tool "X Money" or Airbnb's payment system.
The change in the political climate—the Trump administration now supports cryptocurrencies—has made these companies feel more comfortable experimenting with stablecoin adoption. 🗳️💼
But it's not all smooth sailing ⛵. Big Tech companies are selective about which stablecoins to use. Transparency issues with Tether and the evolving ownership of USDC raise concerns.

$USDC USDC Issuer Circle Debuts on Stock Exchange with Extreme Volatility and Multiple Suspensions

The issuer of USDC, Circle Internet Group, began trading on the New York Stock Exchange and was almost immediately suspended after the price of its shares tripled its IPO opening mark of $31.

In less than an hour, CRCL was suspended three times. Each time it was a LULD (Limit Up-Limit Down) pause, meaning that the price and trading volume exhibited extreme volatility.

It is the same reason cited when GameStop, trading on Nasdaq under the symbol GME, was suspended 9 times last year when investor enthusiasm for the return of the meme stock icon Roaring Kitty (also known as Keith Gill) drove the stock price up.

Circle has been trying to go public since 2021, but later canceled it and finally raised $1.1 billion in this week’s launch. In the days leading up to CRCL’s debut on the NYSE, there were rumors and then confirmation that its IPO round was oversubscribed.
