A strong signal that may mark a turning point in the preferences of institutional investors. Are we witnessing a shift in the established order of the crypto market?
The man behind Tesla and SpaceX wields tweets like market levers, oscillating between sarcasm, fascination, and caution. In October 2021, he urged not to "bet the farm" on cryptos. However, he later confessed to having acquired, "out of curiosity," Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin. Such a paradox raises a central question: Is Musk acting as a mere clear-sighted observer or as a fully engaged actor in an ecosystem he inadvertently helps to steer?
Could Bitcoin’s position at the market summit be grinding to a halt? Following a remarkable start to July, the OG crypto seems to be losing its sector dominance to Ethereum, at least for the time being.

Ether ETFs have just dethroned Bitcoin ETFs by recording $602 million in inflows in a single day, compared to $523 million for BTC. This record day, when crypto ETFs attracted $1.1 billion, reflects strong confidence from major financial players, who see ETFs as a secure and regulated way to expose their portfolios to the crypto sector.
The crypto market has just crossed the symbolic threshold of 4 trillion dollars in capitalization, a level unmatched since the bull run of 2021. However, this push goes far beyond a simple speculative rebound. It reflects a reallocation of capital towards major assets, a renewed confidence among investors, and a silent transformation of exchange infrastructures. More than just a strong comeback, it seems that the crypto ecosystem is entering a new phase of maturity.
While some are watching for the slightest sign of a pullback, Bitcoin and Ether-backed ETFs continue their triumphant march.

Ethereum climbs 20% amid Bitcoin's decline. Is the crypto market changing its leader? Full analysis here.
Ethereum suddenly emerges from its lethargy. By breaking through a strategic price zone, the asset marks one of its sharpest movements in weeks. Increased volumes, aligned technical signals, and a resurgence of volatility: all the markers of a market awakening are present. This unexpected sequence repositions Ethereum at the center of attention, amidst the liquidation of short positions and the return of speculative appetite. Such a surge raises as many questions as it intrigues, as the ecosystem still struggles to regain a clear direction.
Standard Chartered has taken a major step in crypto by launching a fully regulated spot trading service for Bitcoin and Ethereum, specifically targeting institutional clients.

The market for tokenized real-world assets (RWA) is experiencing a spectacular redistribution in 2025. Solana has shown a growth of 218% since January, eclipsing the progress of Ethereum which is limited to 81%. Could this rise redefine the hierarchy of blockchains in this strategic sector?
Quantum computing, often seen as a sword of Damocles hanging over blockchains, has fueled fantasies and speculations for more than a decade. In this universe of uncertainty, Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, presents a contrarian diagnosis: lucid, quantified, but above all, confident. For him, the arrival of machines capable of breaking current cryptographic foundations is not a fatality, it is a deadline. And Ethereum will be ready for it.
While Ethereum is often touted as a potentially deflationary asset, the reality of the protocol tells a different story. Nearly 4.6 million ETH have been burned since 2021, the equivalent of $13.5 billion, yet this has not stymied the growth of supply. This anomaly raises questions about the coherence and effectiveness of the economic model established since the London upgrade, and challenges certain certainties regarding the programmed scarcity of the asset.
For a long time, bitcoin reigned supreme as the uncontested master of the cryptocurrency realm, particularly in the area of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). But today, a turning point is taking place. Discreetly, methodically, Ethereum is beginning to nibble away at market shares and is capturing the attention of institutional investors. A recent report from CoinShares highlights this astonishing dynamic: ether is no longer just following; it is asserting itself. Behind the numbers lies a reality taking hold: the dominance of bitcoin in crypto ETFs is no longer so evident.
The crypto market has just crossed a symbolic threshold: $3.8 trillion in capitalization. This is more than Amazon's valuation, almost as much as the GDP of the United Kingdom. Far from a simple bullish cycle, this surge propels cryptocurrencies to the status of systemic players. A turning point that reshuffles the cards: this market is no longer peripheral; it now competes with major economic powers. While financial capitals observe, the cryptosphere sets its own pace and redraws the contours of the global economy.

A major milestone that reflects both the maturity of the sector and its growing attractiveness to institutions.
Eric Jackson of EMJ Capital predicts Ethereum could surge to $10,000 soon and even $1.5 million long-term. He highlights the potential impact of staking-enabled ETFs, shrinking ETH supply, and growing institutional demand as key drivers behind this bullish outlook.
