The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of resilience and recovery by the end of July 2025. Global crypto market capitalization remains above $2.5 trillion, with investors cautiously optimistic amid expectations of looser monetary policy in the U.S. and increased institutional inflows.

Key indicators (as of July 29, 2025):

Bitcoin (BTC): $60,820 (+3.2% month-to-date)

Ethereum (ETH): $3,415 (+5.9%)

BNB (Binance Coin): $546 (+4.4%)

Solana (SOL): $148 (+12%)

Ripple (XRP): $0.64 (+2.3%)

Key Trends in July:

BTC Stabilization — After dipping below $58,000 in June, Bitcoin stabilized above $60,000, supported by easing U.S. inflation and growing expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut in the fall.

Rising Interest in Altcoins — Ethereum benefited from progress on the Ethereum 2.0 upgrade. Solana and Avalanche gained on announcements of major DeFi integrations.

Regulatory Signals — In the U.S., the SEC and CFTC continue their jurisdictional tug-of-war, but sentiment has improved following the approval of new crypto ETFs. In the EU, the MiCA regulation took effect, enhancing transparency.

Focus on AI and Web3 Tokens — Investor interest remains strong in tokens related to artificial intelligence, metaverse, and Web3 infrastructure. Top performers include Fetch.ai, Render, and Near Protocol.

Risks and Volatility:

Possible correction in August if the U.S. dollar strengthens

Risk of cyberattacks — July saw 7 major DeFi protocol breaches totaling over $170 million

Market sensitivity to regulatory decisions, especially from the SEC

Analyst Outlook:

According to analysts from Glassnode, CoinShares, and Messari:

– BTC could reach $65,000 by mid-August if U.S. labor market data weakens and the dollar index declines.

– ETH is likely to maintain its upward trend, particularly with continued growth in DeFi and NFT sectors.

– Altcoins focused on AI and Layer-2 solutions have potential upside of 15–20% over the next month.

– The total crypto market cap could reach $2.7 trillion by September under favorable macro conditions.

Conclusion:

The end of July marks a recovery phase for the crypto market after its summer downturn. Investors are focusing on fundamentally strong projects and infrastructure tokens. While volatility remains, market sentiment is positive, assuming the Fed maintains a dovish stance and global markets remain politically stable.
