High inflation in the United States continues to remain in the spotlight of crypto -investors. The federal reserve system did not reduce the interest rate. Against this background, even such an important event as an anniversary tenth birthday of the Ethereum faded.

Bitcoin

The cost of bitcoin from July 25 to August 1, 2025 decreased by 1.5%. In seven days, BTC was unable to overcome the line of $ 120,000, although he was close to this several times. The week for the largest cryptocurrency in capitalization was quite calm: the price change in the results of daytime trade sessions has never reached even 2%.

On Wednesday, July 30, a meeting of the US Federal Reserve was held at a key rate. At it, the head of the department Jerome Powell announced that the indicator remains at the same level – in the range of 4.25–4.5%. This coincided with consensus prognosis. Nevertheless, the occasion for concern among crypto-investors still arose. Powell hinted that Donald Trump’s policy in relation to import duties could disperse inflation. In connection with which the Fed will have to react accordingly, that is, at least not lower, and it is possible to increase the interest rate, making loans more expensive. Bitcoin
reacted A decrease by 2.5%, however, a little later it was played out.

In the same Wednesday was
published “Digital Assets Report). In it, the White House proclaimed that the Trump administration was going to make the United States a global cryptocurrency leader. The main provisions are called: regulatory transparency, protection of user rights, legal use of blockchain, a ban on digital currency of the Central Bank (CBDC), as well as open access to financial infrastructure.

In spot-bitcoin -etf, three trading sessions had an influx of cash, and on July 31 an outflow of $ 114.83 million was there. The total weekly dynamics remained positive for eighth week in a row. True, the enthusiasm of investors was clearly diminished. If in early June the flow of money exceeded $ 1 billion per week, and in mid -July it was above $ 2 billion, then recently, weekly revenues have not reached even $ 200 million.

From the point of view of technical analysis, the long -term trend of Bitcoin remains ascending. This is evidenced by the excess at the price of a 50-day sliding average (indicated in blue). However, short -term – a correction on the face. The bearish forecast for the close perspective is strengthened by the reduction of the RSI indicator below 50. The current levels of support and resistance on the daily graphics: $ 112,000 and $ 123,236, respectively.

Index
Fear and greed Compared to last week, I fell by five points. The current value is 65. This still indicates the predominance of greed over fear in the moods of crypto-investors.

Ethereum

The broadcast of the week from July 25 to August 1 has not changed in price. However, on Monday, July 28, the second in capitalization of cryptocurrency overcame $ 3900. This is a maximum of 2025. The last time it was the last time it cost December 17, 2024, that is, more than seven months ago.

The most significant event of the week was the tenth anniversary birthday of Ethereum. He came on July 30. The neutral dynamics of the coin is associated with conflicting data. On the one hand, a number of indicators are alarming. For example, by trading volume on decentralized exchanges, the broadcast has not been in the leaders since the beginning of April. As of August 1, the Ethereum network takes the second place with a share of 21.35%, and the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) leads with 37.77%. If you compare the indicators over the past month, then the statistics are even more depressing: the ether lost to his competitor almost twice in a trade volume – $ 84.3 billion against $ 190.5 billion.

The financing rate (fanding) remains positive. This suggests that Bykov (buyers) in the market is more than bears (sellers). Nevertheless, if you look at the statistics from July 21, then the indicator steadily fell, which indicates the lower interest of investors in Long positions with a credit shoulder.

On the other hand, there are factors in favor of the growth of ether. Cryptoquant analytical platform
I presented it Information, according to which the ETH reserve on crypto -rms continues to decline. On July 30, the indicator reached the mark of 18.7 million coins – the lowest line over the past eight years.

Another analytical platform, lookonchain,
noted Increased demand for large players. Starting from July 9, eleven new wallets accumulated over 722,000 ETH worth about $ 2.77 billion.

An increase in interest in the second in capitalization of cryptocurrency by large investors confirms the flow of funds in spot ETF on the air. The influx has been fixed for twenty trading sessions in a row. This is the longest series of replenishment of spotes ETF on the air by investors since the beginning of trading in July 2024. In total, during this time, the cumulative cash inflow exceeded $ 9.6 billion.

From the point of view of technical analysis, the trend of the broadcast is ascending. The price is located much higher than a 50-day sliding average (indicated in blue). The trend is strong enough, since the ADX indicator exceeds the value of 40. The next levels of support and resistance on the day schedule: $ 3500 and $ 3940.8, respectively.

SUI

SUI in the period from July 25 to August 1 showed a decrease by more than 8%. Although in the first half of the week the cryptocurrency grew in price, the last five trading sessions ended in the minus. This predetermined the general dynamics of seven days.

The main reason for the reduction in SUI at the week is the anticipation of 44 million coins in the amount of over $ 150 million, which took place on August 1, by investors of unlocking. Unlock led to an increase in supply by 1.27%. Purely from an economic point of view, this is a bearish signal: to maintain the price at the same level, the corresponding increase in demand is necessary. However, in general, for SUI, the situation is quite standard. The next unlock in the same amount of 44 million coins is scheduled for September 1.

It is worth noting a certain decrease in TVL – the number of blocked crypto acts in the protocols of the SUI network. On July 27, the indicator reached its historical maximum – $ 2.226 billion. However, by the first of August, TVL SUI fell by 10%, to $ 1.993 billion.

Despite the decrease in individual metrics and short -term prices, the appetite of institutional investors does not weaken to this cryptocurrency. Financial company Mill City Ventures
Gathering Spend a little less than $ 450 million on the purchase of SUI. All acquisitions will be made in the open market, or directly through agreements with SUI Foundation.

From the point of view of technical analysis, the situation in SUI is similar to bitcoin: the long-term trend is bull, since the price exceeds a 50-day sliding average (indicated in blue), and the short-term is bearish. This week, a “bear trap” formed on the day schedule here. On July 27, the price closed above the resistance level – $ 4.29, but after the decline began. An additional factor that gives the power of the signal was the fixation of growth on a lower trade volume than the fall. Now SUI has approached $ 3.518 support. If you can not hold above, then the level will turn into a resistance level. After that, the price may be quite likely to decrease to the next level of resistance at $ 3.12.

Conclusion

The largest cryptocurrencies last week first grew, and then fell in price. The general dynamics was negative. This is largely due to the fact that the encouraging signal from the US Federal Reserve regarding the reduction of the key rate and cheaper money was not received.
