On July 14, according to QCP's 2026 Q3 digital asset outlook, the core of the Q3 crypto market is not fundamental deterioration, but a lack of new liquidity drivers. BTC is expected to maintain a range-bound oscillation between $60,000 and $75,000. Uncertainty in Federal Reserve policy, high real interest rates, and weak ETF fund flows will continue to pressure the market; the AI sector continues to attract institutional capital, while BTC remains a high-beta liquidity asset. Corporate BTC reserve demand still provides long-term support, but the market is more focused on financing capacity than holdings scale. QCP recommends maintaining core BTC positions, controlling leverage, and monitoring ETF fund flows, stablecoin supply, and changes in real interest rates.

On July 14, according to the Financial Times, three sources revealed that DeepSeek is considering raising additional funds just one month after completing its first funding round, to accelerate the expansion of its infrastructure. The sources stated that the company completed its first funding round around the end of May, raising approximately $7 billion, with a post-money valuation of about $52 billion (including the new funds). Two of the sources said that DeepSeek has already begun preliminary discussions with new investors this week about launching a new funding round, with a pre-money valuation of approximately $71 billion, representing a roughly 37% increase from the previous round.
