Bitcoin has pulled back to around $62,000 as tensions between the U.S. and Iran escalated, but some market watchers say the current bear phase could end as early as September or October this year. Trader Ryker said the market largely expects the next bull cycle in 2027, yet market makers tend to position ahead of consensus, leading him to expect Bitcoin to start rising in the coming months. Trader Jelle pointed to a weekly “death cross,” arguing that the signal has historically appeared near the end of bear markets and may indicate a fresh accumulation phase. In the near term, analysts still see pressure on price action. They identified $64,000 as a key resistance level and said failure to break above it could leave Bitcoin vulnerable to a drop toward $57,800. On-chain data from CryptoQuant added another layer: addresses holding 100 to 1,000 BTC recorded net selling of about 67,000 BTC on July 13, the largest distribution since February. Even so, the firm said similar distribution patterns have often shown up shortly before rebounds, though the latest data alone does not confirm a market bottom.

CoinDesk’s latest exchange report said global spot trading volume on centralized exchanges climbed 15.3% month over month in June to $1.11 trillion, ending a five-month decline. Among the exchanges highlighted in the report, Gate recorded a 50.8% increase in spot volume to $66.1 billion, the fastest growth rate among global CEXs. Its spot market share rose by 1.55 percentage points to 5.95%, also leading the industry and reaching its highest level since October 2025. The report said that performance placed Gate among the world’s top three spot platforms in the AA-A tier of top exchanges. In derivatives, Gate posted $369 billion in June trading volume, while its market share increased to 9.52%, keeping it in fourth place globally. The exchange also ranked among the top three retail derivatives platforms by open interest, with a 9.20% share. Based on combined spot and derivatives trading scale, Gate ranked fourth worldwide, according to the report.

Robinhood Chain has posted nearly $4 billion in cumulative DEX volume less than two weeks after mainnet launch, quickly entering the ranks of the busiest public chains. Data cited from DeFiLlama, Token Terminal, L2BEAT and Dune shows the network has climbed to second place in 24-hour DEX volume behind Solana, while daily transactions, active addresses and Ethereum data availability usage have all surged past key peers such as Base in parts of the period. The activity boom has been driven heavily by meme-coin trading. On July 10 alone, meme tokens accounted for about 54.3% of on-chain trading volume, while daily token creation briefly topped 24,000. That growth has come with concentration and security concerns: meme market cap on the chain has exceeded $240 million, but Cashcat alone represents about 59.6% of that total, and Relay Protocol has warned about a wave of honeypot scam tokens targeting users. The report says the main beneficiaries so far include Uniswap, which handled 99.8% of the chain’s DEX volume as of July 12, Morpho and Ethena, which hold large shares of total value locked, launchpad NOXA.fun, infrastructure provider Arbitrum, and perpetuals platform Arcus. Even with the breakout debut, the report says Robinhood Chain’s next test is whether meme-driven traffic can convert into durable users, capital and a more resilient ecosystem.
