Blockchain Investing Strategies: Cryptocurrency Trading Guide podcast.
Crypto Willy here—your blockchain brother from another wallet, and wow, this week in crypto packed more action than a folder full of lost seed phrases. Let’s hit the hotwire of the markets and strategies you need to know for the last week of July 2025.
Bitcoin grabbed center stage again, absolutely smashing through prior all-time highs and rallying with the kind of swagger only Satoshi himself could dream up. This breakout didn’t just happen in a vacuum—analysts like Izabela Anna flagged that Bitcoin's push toward the $110K–$117K range sets up a possible parabolic run, especially as we’re about 32% of the way to the next halving. Record global liquidity—$95 trillion and counting—added serious rocket fuel. Halving cycles have historically squeezed supply and ramped prices, so keep that macro factor in your trading toolkit.
It wasn’t only BTC flexing. Meme madness plus tech upgrades meant altcoins had their time in the neon lights. Pudgy Penguins (PENGU)—yeah, the NFT-inspired meme runner—exploded nearly 290% thanks to combo hype: new NFT drops, whale buys, and that ever-volatile Twitter buzz. Conflux (CFX) shot up 170%, driven by whispers of a major 3.0 upgrade and their connection to a new China-backed stablecoin project on the Belt and Road path. That's not just price action—it’s geopolitical chess, folks.
Solana’s pup BONK barked up with a 140% pump after a headline-grabbing token burn made supply scarcer and sparked FOMO. Meanwhile, Ethena (ENA) notched a 105% rally after a major exchange listing sent big wallets racing in. CRV, the DeFi legend, came up 85% post its V3 upgrade—proving that yield farming and DeFi protocols can still pull crowds if the product, and narrative, are strong.
Don’t sleep on good ol’ Dogecoin (DOGE). Sitting around $0.269, this meme coin is now above basically every major moving average for the short-term, making analysts everywhere debate whether we’ll see another Elon-fueled breakout or a quick nap near $0.30–$0.32. Yes, DOGE started as a joke, but with a 95% year-to-date gain, nobody’s laughing at your portfolio anymore.
All this action comes as the U.S. Congress declared the week of July 14th “Crypto Week” in D.C., moving forward on the CLARITY Act and other major pro-innovation legislation to shape America as the crypto capital. This historic legislative push is giving big institutions the confidence to throw in more chips, boosting spot and futures volume to never-seen levels. CME Group’s latest report dropped big numbers, showing crypto product volumes up 140% year-over-year, with Ether futures gaining the biggest inflows. Tools like spot-quoted futures and broader risk management strategies are now essentials if you want to play like the big funds.
Trading strategies right now? Stay nimble. Volatility is your frenemy: great for scalpers, but long-haulers better keep a close eye on macro headlines and those DeFi narrative shifts. Track the leaders, but watch their shadows; flows into “old school” BTC and ETH are still the backbone, while altcoin sprints can amplify both gains and risk.
