$LINK is the pulse of crypto hype right now 🔥
- 🚀 A second inflow into the Chainlink Reserve just landed
- 💰 These reserves are earmarked for $LINK buybacks
- 📆 Over $1M allocated today alone—with weekly injections planned. These reserves won’t be touched for years
- 🤝 The founder has met with the president and holds White House access
- 🛠 Chainlink isn’t just powering DeFi—it’s woven into the fabric of nearly every major crypto protocol
- 🌐 When Web2 giants step into crypto, Chainlink is their first call

📊 Historical Market Cap Ratio: $ETH vs $BTC
- 2017 Bull Run: ETH reached ~35% of BTC’s market cap.
- 2021 Bull Run: ETH slightly exceeded that, hitting ~36%.
This historical consistency suggests a strong correlation between ETH and BTC performance during bullish cycles. While ETH doesn’t match BTC in absolute price, its market cap tends to scale proportionally.

🔍 Current Market Cap Implication
Let’s assume:
- BTC Market Cap ≈ $1.7 trillion (hypothetical current figure)
- 35% of BTC Market Cap → ETH Market Cap ≈ $595 billion
If ETH were to reach this proportion:
- Estimated ETH Price ≈ $6,000, assuming current ETH supply remains stable
This suggests ETH is currently undervalued relative to BTC, if we expect historical ratios to repeat.

🚀 Future Projection: BTC at $150,000
If BTC hits $150k, its market cap would be:
- BTC Market Cap ≈ $2.9–3 trillion (depending on circulating supply)
Then:
- 35% of BTC Market Cap → ETH Market Cap ≈ $1–1.05 trillion
- Estimated ETH Price ≈ $8,000+
This projection aligns with the thesis that ETH lags but eventually catches up in bull markets.

CPI Below Expectations, Core CPI Hits 6-Month High – Will the Fed Pivot in September?

Global financial markets just received the U.S. CPI data for July 2025: headline CPI rose by 2.7%, below the expected 2.8%, while core CPI surged unexpectedly to 3.1%—the highest in six months.

This immediately raises a big question: Is the Federal Reserve (Fed) ready to “pivot” and kick off a rate-cutting cycle at its September 17 meeting?
Most experts and Wall Street giants like J.P. Morgan and Forbes agree that the Fed is likely to start cutting rates in September, especially following the July jobs report showing slower wage growth.

However, the rise in core CPI suggests the Fed will proceed cautiously. A modest “pivot” (a 0.25% rate cut) followed by a pause to assess further developments is the most likely scenario.

Is this the “BIG STORM” we’ve been waiting for? 😁

$ETH is maintaining a strong upward trend after surpassing the $4,000 threshold, thanks to stable ETF inflows and optimistic sentiment from crypto-supportive policies under the Trump administration. However, there may be a slight correction due to profit-taking pressure after the 20-30% increase last week.

Short-term price forecast:
11/08: Fluctuating $4,200–$4,350, with potential ROI of ~2-3% if the upward trend continues.
13/08: $4,250–$4,400, may test the resistance level of $4,500 if CPI is lower than expected.
17/08: $4,300–$4,500, but downside risk to $4,000 if there are negative news from the Fed.

Influencing factors:
ETF and staking: The inflow of funds into ETH ETFs continues to be strong, and the possibility of the SEC relaxing staking regulations could push prices higher.
Network upgrade: The Pectra outlook (expected in 2025) and reduced Layer 2 fees support long-term growth.

Risks: Lower-than-expected ETH inflation could exert pressure, along with volatility from macroeconomic factors (CPI on 12/08 forecasted at +0.3%).
Strategy: Buy when the price hits support at $4,100–$4,200, set stop-loss below $4,000. If you are holding, consider taking partial profits at $4,500.

BIGPUMP #LINK🔥🔥🔥 is about to begin
Based on the current information, if Chainlink officially runs integration with SWIFT by the end of 2025, the projected revenue of Chainlink could reach around 300 million dollars. This figure reflects the growth potential from processing a portion of SWIFT transactions, which handles billions of transactions each year, along with other services such as CCIP (Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol). However, this is an estimate based on analysis, as Chainlink does not publish official financial reports, and the specific fees for each transaction have not been publicly disclosed clearly.
The integration with SWIFT, starting testing in July 2025 and expected to be fully implemented by November 2025, could help Chainlink process a large volume of transactions, especially in the field of digital assets and international payments. A report from PicoLore Research suggests that if Chainlink processes 2.5% of SWIFT transactions (approximately 400 million transactions per year), the value of the $LINK token could increase significantly, implying that revenue from transaction fees would also be considerable. However, the specific fees (usually charged in LINK tokens) depend on Chainlink's fee structure, such as gas fees and network fees, and can range from a few cents to several dollars per transaction, depending on the type of service.

Step by step, we will see the chart more clearly.

[DO YOU KNOW] $BTC
Bhutan, a small Himalayan nation, has emerged as a significant player in the cryptocurrency world by amassing substantial Bitcoin holdings. As of September 2024, Bhutan's government-owned Druk Holdings possesses over 13,000 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $780 million. This amount represents nearly one-third of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which stands at around $3 billion.
The Kingdom's venture into Bitcoin began around 2019, leveraging its abundant hydroelectric resources to power mining operations. This strategic move not only capitalizes on Bhutan's renewable energy capabilities but also diversifies its economy beyond traditional sectors like hydropower, tourism, and agriculture.
In partnership with Bitdeer, a Singapore-based mining company, Bhutan plans to expand its mining capacity to 600 megawatts by 2025, up from the current 100 megawatts. This expansion underscores Bhutan's commitment to integrating digital assets into its economic framework.
By embracing Bitcoin mining, Bhutan demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to economic development, utilizing its natural resources to engage with emerging technologies and global financial trends.

[WHY?]
Big banks are integrating #Chainlink into their systems, while some investors are focusing on less substantial meme coins. Chainlink's technology is being adopted by major financial institutions, highlighting its growing importance in the financial sector.

DO YOU KNOW?

Holding ONLY 1,000 LINK places you among the top 5% of Chainlink holders. This highlights the relatively concentrated distribution of LINK tokens, where a small percentage of holders control a significant portion of the supply. For instance, the top 100 addresses collectively own approximately 68.82% of the total LINK supply.

Chainlink, initially known as a decentralized oracle network, has significantly expanded its scope of operations within the blockchain ecosystem. In addition to providing off-chain data for smart contracts, Chainlink has introduced the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), which enables the secure transfer of data and value between different blockchains.
Furthermore, Chainlink has partnered with SWIFT, the global financial messaging services organization, to explore interoperability between blockchains and traditional financial systems. This collaboration aims to facilitate the transfer of tokenized assets and integrate real-world financial data into blockchain networks, enhancing the efficiency and capabilities of the financial industry.
These initiatives demonstrate that Chainlink is not just an oracle but also plays a crucial role in driving the development of blockchain applications and decentralized finance (DeFi).

This week, Chainlink announced the launch of the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE), a significant upgrade to its platform. CRE introduces a modular architecture designed to enhance scalability across multiple blockchains and offers developers deep customization for self-serve product development.
Additionally, Chainlink unveiled the Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard as part of the CCIP v1.5 upgrade. This standard facilitates self-serve deployments, provides developer control and ownership, and enables zero-slippage transfers, aiming to streamline cross-chain interoperability.
These developments underscore Chainlink's commitment to advancing decentralized finance and blockchain technology.
