Bitcoin price has never lost more than 10% in July — Is 2023 different?

CointelegraphPublicado em 2023-07-03Última atualização em 2023-07-03

Resumo

Bitcoin looks primed for a “liquidity hunt” to $35,000, but not everyone is convinced that BTC price upside will last beyond July.

Bitcoin gained 12% in June, but one forecast sees the good times soon fading for bulls.

In a tweet on July 1, popular trader CryptoBullet admitted that July might not offer much more BTC price upside.

Trader: BTC price rally “likely” ending this month

Despite a last-minute dive, thanks to a macro news event, Bitcoin managed to close out the month of June in a solid position.

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro, TradingView and CoinGlass confirms that the monthly close came in at $30,465 on Bitstamp.

Those levels continue to hold into the weekend, with the past month marking Bitcoin’s best June performance since 2019.

By historical standards, July looks even better; throughout its history, BTC price action has never lost more than 10% during the month.

For CryptoBullet, however, “common sense” dictates that BTC/USD should fall below some key moving averages.

“So, June surprised me. We got a pretty bullish monthly close: BTC tested the the MA50, bounced strongly and managed to regain the EMA21 !” he commented on the monthly chart.

LIT Reaches New Highs Constantly, What Has Lighter Done Right?

Lighter (LIT) token prices have surged nearly 5x since March, driven by multiple factors. Key contributors include its low circulating supply (approx. 25% of total), significant token buyback/burns (1.73% of supply), and strong staking incentives. Technically, Lighter is a specialized ZK-Rollup for perpetual DEX, solving the traditional "impossible triangle" for on-chain derivatives. Unlike general-purpose L2s or independent L1s (like dYdX v4, Hyperliquid), Lighter encodes exchange rules—including price-time priority order matching, funding rate caps, and liquidation formulas—directly into its zk-SNARK circuits. This provides cryptographic proof of correct execution. It achieves high performance (<5ms matching latency) while inheriting Ethereum's security, including a robust escape hatch for user withdrawals. Its architecture separates the core trading engine (custom ZK circuits) from a parallel zkEVM for general contracts. Recent optimizations have reduced average block verification time to ~1 minute. As an Ethereum L2, it benefits from the ecosystem's liquidity and composability without relying heavily on bridges. This combination of verifiable on-chain mechanics and Ethereum-grade security is a core value proposition, differentiating Lighter in the competitive perp DEX market and underpinning strategic partnerships like the one with Robinhood.

When Real Estate Ownership Goes Digital: What Happens to Your Rights, Risks, and Liquidity?

"Tokenizing Real Estate: Rights, Risks, and the Path to Liquidity" While tokenizing real-world assets (RWA) gains traction, real estate presents unique complexities. Beyond technical token issuance, critical challenges remain: enforcing legal rights, managing the underlying physical asset, and creating genuine secondary market liquidity. This article explores these issues through OneAsset, a Dubai-based commercial real estate (CRE) tokenization platform. OneAsset moves away from simply offering asset fragmentation. Instead, it focuses on institutional-grade infrastructure, prioritizing asset quality, legal enforceability, and operational fundamentals. Each property is held in an independent, single-asset vault, backed by a legally separate Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for bankruptcy remoteness. Investors acquire tokens representing the economic rights to a specific property, with precise legal claims defined by the underlying SPV structure. OneAsset emphasizes that tokenization cannot transform a poor-quality asset. Its initial focus is on institutional investors and quality Dubai-based CRE, selected for stable tenant cash flows and a clear regulatory environment. The platform integrates compliance by design, aiming to embed investor qualification and transfer rules directly into the token architecture. A core insight is that asset fragmentation does not automatically create liquidity. True liquidity depends on the asset's inherent quality—its location, cash flow, and valuation—as well as sufficient buyer demand. The goal is not just tradability, but making real estate rights more easily priced, verified, and reallocated. Looking ahead, the article discusses the potential for "AiFi" (AI-powered finance). For AI agents to autonomously allocate capital, investment assets like real estate tokens must become truly "machine-readable." This requires a high degree of standardization in legal rights, valuations, cash flows, and compliance data—a direction OneAsset is pursuing through its structured data reporting. In conclusion, real estate tokenization is shifting from a technology narrative to a focus on asset fundamentals. Blockchain can enhance efficiency and programmability, but it cannot replace sound underwriting, property management, or legal execution. The real work begins after the asset is on-chain.

After Affecting Two Generations, Meta Ordered to Pay $18 Billion in Damages

After more than two decades, a legal parallel has emerged. In 1998, major U.S. tobacco companies settled for $206 billion, leading to strict advertising bans and warning labels that significantly reduced smoking rates. On August 26, 2026, Meta reached a landmark settlement with U.S. attorneys general, agreeing to pay up to approximately $18 billion and implement mandatory changes to Facebook and Instagram. This historic settlement, one of the largest against a tech company, stems from allegations that Meta deliberately designed addictive features like infinite scroll and push notifications, harming youth mental health and violating child privacy laws. Facing a potential $1.4 trillion lawsuit and a series of unfavorable jury verdicts, Meta chose to settle on the eighth day of trial to avoid a catastrophic ruling. The core of the agreement is not just the financial penalty, which Meta will pay over 10 years, but a series of strict, 10-year product mandates for young users. These include a hard two-hour daily time limit (combined across apps), a default "nighttime block" from midnight to 6 AM, restricted notifications during school hours, hidden "like" counts, an optional non-algorithmic feed, and stronger age verification. An independent auditor will monitor compliance. Crucially, roughly 30% ($5.3 billion) of Meta's payment is contingent on YouTube and TikTok adopting similar measures and paying around $5 billion each. This move aims to create an industry-wide standard and prevent Meta from being competitively disadvantaged. The settlement is being likened to Big Tobacco's "tobacco moment." By legally framing addictive algorithm design as a "public nuisance," it sets a powerful precedent. Nearly 3,000 similar cases are pending against other social media giants, signaling a fundamental shift in regulatory pressure. The era where platforms could deny the addictive impact of their designs on children is effectively over.

Morgan Stanley Research Report Analysis: Semtech's Data Center Revenue Surges 39% QoQ, 1.6T Optical Chip Ramp-up Drives Performance to New Heights

Summary: Morgan Stanley's research report highlights Semtech's strong performance in Q2, with data center revenue reaching $100 million, up 39% quarter-over-quarter and 91% year-over-year, driven by robust demand for 800G and a faster-than-expected ramp of 1.6T FiberEdge products. The report revises the price target upward to $195 from $175, maintaining a Neutral rating. Key drivers include continued strength in the 800G market, with shipment forecasts raised, and strong Q3 guidance projecting 45% sequential revenue growth in data centers. Gross margins are improving rapidly, expected to reach 58.3% in Q3, aided by the pending divestiture of the modules business. Beyond data centers, the LoRa business also set a record. Long-term growth is seen in areas like NPO, CPO, and 3.2T. While valuation appears full, further upside is possible from continued data center outperformance and margin expansion.

Conversation with Tom Lee: Reaching 5% of ETH Total Supply Is Not the End Goal, Target Price Projects Up to $10,000

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), chaired by Tom Lee, holds nearly 5% of all ETH, around 5.85 million tokens. The company aims for a 5% target soon, but Lee suggests holdings could exceed this if institutions adopt ETH as a long-term asset. BitMine financed purchases solely through equity, avoiding debt. For over 60 weeks, it bought ETH weekly, recently adding stock buybacks. Annual staking yields roughly $300M, covering the 9.5% dividend on its BMNP preferred shares. Lee sees ETH as a value-storing asset, like equities or land, not merely a cash-flow instrument. He forecasts ETH surpassing $5,000 in the next bull cycle and potentially exceeding $10,000 within 1-2 years if Wall Street tokenization and AI-driven demand materialize. BitMine is also evolving into an ecosystem player, funding Ethereum Foundation spin-offs and running a staking platform. Lee acknowledges his significant personal financial ties to ETH's success.
