According to a report cited by Jin10 and carried by ChainCatcher, ING analyst Francesco Pesole said the resumption of military strikes in the Middle East is a reminder for investors to stay cautious on the euro-dollar exchange rate. In his view, the euro would need several conditions to be met in order to secure a sustained move above $1.15. Those include data or Federal Reserve communication that reduces expectations for U.S. rate hikes, along with a stabilization in broader risk sentiment. Pesole also said that if the market’s broadly optimistic view that the conflict will ease proves correct, EUR/USD has likely already found a bottom. The comments focused on how geopolitical developments and shifting expectations around U.S. monetary policy may shape the near-term path of the currency pair.

EUR/USD fell to about 1.1362, its lowest level this month, during early European trading on July 28, according to Jin10. The pair weakened as traders stayed cautious before the Federal Reserve’s policy announcement, while the U.S. dollar extended its gains. Markets widely expect the Fed to leave rates unchanged in the 3.5% to 3.75% range, keeping attention on the policy statement and Fed Chair Wash’s press conference. CME data showed the probability of a September rate hike at 80.8%. Investors are also waiting for preliminary July consumer price index readings from Germany and the wider eurozone, adding another data point for near-term rate expectations.

ARK Invest analyst Lorenzo said Hyperliquid has reached a new point in its market mix, with real-world asset trading on HIP-3 exceeding crypto-native volume for the first time in a single week. According to the figures cited in the post, RWA accounted for 54% of total platform volume, and 61% of that RWA activity came from single-stock products. The article argues this shift points to a broader change in Hyperliquid’s positioning, from a crypto perpetuals venue to a round-the-clock multi-asset derivatives platform spanning equities, indices, commodities and FX. The write-up also stresses that the RWA products in question are synthetic perpetual contracts rather than tokenized securities. Traders get price exposure, typically margined in USDC, but do not receive actual stock ownership, voting rights or legal claims on the underlying assets. It distinguishes that model from true securities tokenization and notes the two paths carry different infrastructure, legal and operational requirements. At the same time, the piece flags a math issue in the original comparison between Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 RWA volume and the rest of the DEX perpetuals market, and says the claim cannot be directly derived from the numbers presented. It further examines what the trend could mean for HYPE, USDC and Circle, while outlining the current HIP-3 market map, where activity is concentrated in stocks, commodities and indices, with much of the volume attributed to the trade[XYZ] deployment.
