With inflation creeping higher and Trump\u2019s proposed tariffs adding pressure, the Fed is expected to keep rates between 4.25% and 4.50%. Upcoming data, like Tuesday\u2019s consumer confidence, Wednesday\u2019s GDP, and Friday\u2019s non-farm payrolls, will further shape expectations for future policy.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, ETF inflows continue to offer support. <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theblock.co\/data\/crypto-markets\/bitcoin-etf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spot Bitcoin ETFs<\/a> saw modest $72 million inflows last week, while Ethereum ETFs added over $5.1 billion in assets.

ZORA and VINE Make Headlines After Major Moves<\/h2>\n<p>With Bitcoin steady near $119K and Ethereum pushing toward $4,000, altcoins are back in the spotlight and two names in particular have caught traders\u2019 attention: ZORA and VINE.<\/p>\n<p>The VINE memecoin surged over 350%, $400 million volume in the last 24 hours, in just four\u00a0days after Elon Musk teased the return of Vine, saying, \u201cWe\u2019re bringing back Vine, but in AI form.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elon Musk in a new tweet:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re bringing back Vine, but in AI form.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TtPJYxP42R\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/TtPJYxP42R<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Pop Base (@PopBase) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PopBase\/status\/1948359452270145659?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">July 24, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>The post instantly went viral on X, but also drew criticism about potential \u201ccrappy AI content.\u201d Interestingly, Rus Yusupov, Vine\u2019s original founder, had posted about viral AI videos days before the announcement. Though he dropped a VINE token earlier this year, there\u2019s no official link between him and Musk\u2019s AI Vine revival. The memecoin may just be riding speculative hype.<\/p>\n\n<p>(<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/vine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VINEUSDT<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/zora?s=21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ZORA<\/a>, a creator-focused protocol enabling tokenized content, has gained serious traction, printing over 900% gains in just a month. It\u2019s now trading at $289 million market cap (839 million FDV).<\/p>\n<p>Built on the Base chain, ZORA benefited from rising interest in dApps and a public dispute between Jesse Pollak (Base) and Jon Chabonne (DBA). Pollak\u2019s defense of ZORA as \u201cmore than a meme coin\u201d helped draw attention.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the platform itself has received mixed feedback. Some find the UX unintuitive, sitting somewhere between SocialFi and NFT tools. It may still be a work in progress, but ZORA is clearly on traders\u2019 radars.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re hunting for the best crypto to buy right now, ZORA and VINE offer contrasting bets: one on speculative hype, the other on creator-driven infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-live-articles-list\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-updates-container\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-live-article\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-meta\">\n\t\t<span class=\"nnbtc-update-time-dot\"><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t<a class=\"nnbtc-update-time\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/live-bitcoin-briefly-reclaims-119k-as-ethereum-climbs-toward-4k-best-crypto-to-buy\/#article-264531\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t20 minutes\t\t\tago\t\t<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-title\">\n<h2>Trump Media Bets $300M on Bitcoin-Linked Options to Capitalise on Crypto Volatility<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-author\">\n<div>\n\t\t\t\tBy  <span class=\"nnbtc-author-name\">Fatima<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-content\">\n<p>Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (TMTG), the parent of Truth Social, has invested $300 million in options tied to Bitcoin-related securities, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.co.jp\/news\/articles\/2025-07-28\/T02ZSRGPFHMX00\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to Bloomberg<\/a>. The strategy aims to profit from crypto price swings without holding Bitcoin directly. These options, linked to ETFs, crypto firm shares, or notes from companies like MicroStrategy, offer high upside but carry significant risk if the strike price isn\u2019t met.<\/p>\n<p>While TMTG hasn\u2019t commented, the move reflects a wider trading approach as the firm deepens its exposure to the crypto sector. Trump\u2019s posts have historically moved digital asset prices, and the company already holds an estimated $2 billion in Bitcoin-linked assets.<\/p>\n<p>Critics warn the financial strategy could blur lines between Trump\u2019s political influence and personal investments. With crypto holdings making up a sizable chunk of Trump\u2019s estimated $6.6 billion fortune, the overlap is raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/live-bitcoin-briefly-reclaims-119k-as-ethereum-climbs-toward-4k-best-crypto-to-buy\/\">[LIVE] Bitcoin Briefly Reclaims $119K as Ethereum Climbs Toward $4K \u2013 Best Crypto To Buy?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin remained steady between $116,000 and $119,000 last week, while Ethereum hovered just below $4,000.
