Circle, the issuer of USDC, is currently a Wall Street darling, with its shares hitting fresh record highs and extending a post-IPO rally to an astonishing 750%. Its market capitalization has soared to approximately $66 billion, remarkably surpassing the $60 billion supply of its flagship stablecoin, USDC, and is even nearing crypto exchange giant Coinbase's valuation. This impressive performance, despite high valuation multiples, signals strong investor confidence in the rapidly expanding stablecoin market, especially as U.S. lawmakers push for clearer regulations in the sector, paving the way for wider institutional adoption. Meanwhile, in the broader crypto market, many are eagerly awaiting the next "altcoin season." I recently tapped into #BingXAI, my go-to bot, to look for signals. It provided a clear roadmap: watch for a sustained two-to-three-week drop in Bitcoin dominance, an upward trend in the ETH/BTC ratio, and a significant shift in trading volume (think 30%+ spikes) towards altcoins. It also pointed to capital rotating through various sectors like Layer 1s, DeFi, NFTs, and GameFi, coupled with a consistent pattern of higher lows across major altcoin charts, indicating growing strength independent of Bitcoin's movements. This contrasting landscape highlights crypto's complex and evolving nature. On one hand, you have a regulated entity like Circle demonstrating how traditional finance is embracing digital assets, particularly stablecoins, as foundational infrastructure. On the other hand, the speculative altcoin market patiently awaits its moment, driven by distinct technical indicators and a flow of capital that often moves independently of Bitcoin. It makes you wonder: As institutional crypto adoption accelerates, will the traditional "altcoin season" narrative eventually converge with or diverge further from the growth seen in regulated digital asset sectors like stablecoins?

It’s interesting to see how Ethereum has held its ground in the face of rising global tensions. While Bitcoin experienced a massive dip to $103,414 recently, ETH has shown a unique kind of stability. With its robust ecosystem of decentralized finance (DeFi), smart contracts, and growing adoption by developers, Ethereum has become a cornerstone in the crypto space, proving it’s not just a store of value but a platform with real utility. In a recent chat with #BingXAI, I asked about the timing for the next altcoin season. The next meaningful alt season could begin within 2-3 months if geopolitical tensions ease and Bitcoin finds stability. Historical trends suggest that Q3-Q4 2025 could be the sweet spot for significant altcoin outperformance, as capital rotates from Bitcoin and crypto-stocks into the broader altcoin market. Then there’s $SHIB, which has been consistently climbing, often unrelated to global events. Despite the noise around geopolitical instability, SHIB continues to perform well due to its meme culture and ever-growing fan base. It’s a reminder that while Bitcoin and Ethereum dominate, the power of memecoins and the crypto community should not be underestimated. So, do you think altcoins could offer a safe haven in uncertain times, or are they just another speculative bet?

Date: 23th June 2025. The USD Benefits From Middle East Escalations UK and European Purchasing Managers’ Indexes have been made publicly available but so far are not supporting either currency. So far, the best-performing currency is the US Dollar. The US will release its own PMI report at 13:45 GMT+0. The price of the US Dollar continues to witness the impact of the hawkish Federal Reserve and new escalations within the Middle East. UK and EU PMI Data The European PMI reports were the first to be made public. Both French PMI reports fell below expectations and below the previous month’s release. Particularly investors were concerned with the Manufacturing PMI which fell from 49.8 to 47.8. The German Manufacturing PMI read as expected while the Services PMI rose to a 2-month high. A similar story for the UK, Manufacturing PMI data read higher than expectations while the Services PMI read as expected. However, the Great British Pound index still fell in value despite the report. In addition to this, the Pound also continues to remain under pressure from the Bank of England which held its interest rate at 4.25%, supported by six of the nine governing board members, in response to improved trading conditions following the agreement with the US. The Euro Index is currently trading at 0.56% lower and the Pound at 0.63%. The Bank of England Governor’s speech tomorrow afternoon, along with Thursday’s address, will play a major role in driving the British Pound. Meanwhile, the Euro will see limited releases, with the German IFO Business Climate standing out as the key focus. US Dollar And Middle East Escalation The best-performing currency of the day is the US Dollar which is currently trading 0.69% higher so far today. The first reaction of the US Dollar after the US bombing of Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan was a downward price movement, however, the market since then has significantly risen in value. The US Dollar is currently trading at its highest price on June 11th. The US Dollar strengthened as geopolitical tensions escalated after US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites triggering a lower risk appetite. However, traders will be closely monitoring the release of the US Manufacturing and Services PMI. Investors expect both PMI reports to be slightly weaker than the previous month, however, this cannot be certain until the release is made public. EURUSD - Technical Analysis EURUSD 2-Hour Chart The EURUSD is currently trading below the 75-period EMA and is currently forming a descending triangle pattern on the 2-hour chart. The descending triangle pattern is known to provide a bearish bias as it trades below the 75-period EMA. However, the price is also trading at the support level. On smaller timeframes, the price continues to trade below the 200-period SMA but is retracing higher. However, the retracement is unable to maintain momentum and is forming lower highs. Key Price Takeaways: USD leads as geopolitical tensions and Fed hawkishness boost demand; up 0.69% today. UK and EU PMIs failed to support GBP and EUR despite some stronger readings. BoE and ECB speeches/data remain key drivers; markets await US PMI release. EUR/USD shows bearish signals, trading below key EMAs in a descending triangle. Always trade with strict risk management.

Otasowie24 started following Crypto exchanges and their reputation
-
Recently, I had this argument with my friends about how they choose a cryptocurrency exchange to trade in, setting security aside, as most exchanges now have fund protection in place. Is it by trading volumes alone? The number of social media followers? Or by their partnerships with other reputable brands? My stance was a combination of everything. As we have seen, exchanges can fail despite having good trading volume, and some have huge social media followings, but this did not help when they faced difficulties. Combining both of these factors with partnerships with trusted brands can enhance confidence in using them, as most of these brands would not want to engage in any bad deals that could harm their reputation. After checking these factors then you can now add security to the mix. The discussion was sparked by the recent partnership between Bitget and MotoGP. Based on this, I believe that the exchange, along with a few others, is doing an excellent job of instilling confidence in its users. Do you think my argument is correct? What are your thoughts?

Crude Oil Declines After $78.00 Rejection: Eyes on Rebound FenzoFx—Oil is declining after being rejected from $78.00, heading toward key support at $73.86—an area backed by high volume and demand. If $73.86 holds, a bullish move toward $78.00 and potentially $82.00 could follow.
