Analyst notes that the price of XRP has 'huge growth potential,' alongside ETH and Cardano
Investor sentiment in the crypto market is shifting, with increasing attention being paid to altcoins. Given that the market capitalization of altcoins has exceeded $1.5 trillion, many analysts believe that a real 'altcoin season' is beginning.

This upward trend is fueled by a combination of bullish technical signals and favorable changes in policy.
The LINK token has risen by 15% over the past day in light of the announcement of Chainlink Reserve ā a strategic reserve to support the long-term development of the network.
The "digital reserves" will be replenished from project revenues, both from large corporate clients and from network fees. At the time of launch, LINK worth over $1 million is already allocated in it.
A key element of the new system is the Payment Abstraction mechanism. It allows Chainlink services to be paid in a convenient currency, including stablecoins. The received funds are automatically converted into LINK through decentralized exchanges and directed to the reserve.
This approach simplifies working with the network for large companies and creates a constant demand for the token.
Chainlink stated that they do not plan to withdraw funds from the reserve for several years, expecting its gradual growth. To track the assets, the team has launched a special monitoring dashboard. $LINK

$ETH The host of the program Natalie Brunell asked Tom Lee which cryptocurrency he would invest all his money in for the next ten years: Ethereum or Bitcoin. The interviewee chose Ethereum, calling it "the biggest macro deal of the next decade." According to Lee's forecast, this altcoin is expected to experience explosive growth, as a large number of stablecoins are being created based on the Ethereum blockchain, and major financial companies have started to take asset tokenization more seriously.
Brunell pointed out the risks of Ethereum, including the potential centralization of governance due to the transition to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus, as well as vulnerability to attacks on bridges and layer two solutions.
The host of Coin Stories mentioned the competition between Ethereum and Bitcoin in the decentralized finance (DeFi) market. Lee responded that all these risks are insignificant compared to the fragility of the traditional financial system, which is more vulnerable to fraud. Traditional finance cannot provide people with the same level of security as Ethereum, believes the co-founder of Fundstrat. $ETH

$ENA Ethena (ENA) is approaching an important event: on August 5, the unlocking of tokens worth $100 million is scheduled. This unlocking will bring 2.7% of the total supply to the market, which could significantly impact the price. The tension is heightened by the fact that in the last two weeks, 250 million ENA tokens worth approximately $154 million have already been transferred to exchanges, indicating potential selling pressure.
With the current price at $0.6121, which has increased by more than 10% in the last 24 hours, all attention is focused on whether this bullish momentum will be maintained or if a correction is near.
Currently, the price of ENA shares is fluctuating within a narrow range, showing a combination of consolidation and an upward trend. Strong support levels have formed at $0.552 and in the range of $0.580-$0.585, which have quickly recovered and indicate high buyer interest.
As for resistance, the $0.620 mark remains an insurmountable barrier. The token has pulled back from this level multiple times. The next resistance band is located between $0.625 and $0.630, where price spikes have ceased.

#BTCReserveStrategy The concept of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) emerged when governments began to explore cryptocurrencies as part of their national financial strategies, recognizing the unique characteristics of Bitcoin since its creation during the global financial crisis of 2008-09.
Key points The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve involves the U.S. government's storage of a significant amount of Bitcoin as a reserve asset.
The Bitcoin Act, introduced in July 2024, proposes the purchase of 1 million Bitcoins over five years to strengthen the U.S. balance sheet and protect against economic instability.
The advantages of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve include low investment risks, protection against dollar devaluation, and positioning the U.S. as a leader in digital innovation.
However, the Bitcoin reserve also has its drawbacks, such as Bitcoin's volatility, lack of intrinsic value, economic risks, and potential challenges to the dollar's dominance.
The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve could significantly impact the price of Bitcoin, regulation, and its global acceptance.
