Key Takeaways Cleanspark bought 454 BTC for about $29 million on July 7 at an average price near $64,000. The miner’s treasury now totals 13,924 BTC, worth roughly $880 million. Public miners sold a record 32,000+ BTC in Q1 2026, making Cleanspark’s accumulation a contrarian bet.

The post Bitcoin price prediction July 2026: Fed decides appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin closed the worst half-year in its recent history near $60,000, down from $93,000 in January and fresh off a 21-month low, and almost none of the damage came from crypto itself. The Federal Reserve and record ETF outflows did it, and the same two forces meet again at the July 28-29 policy meeting that will likely decide whether the bottom is in or another leg waits below. These are the levels, the scenarios, and the honest case on both sides. Summary Bitcoin enters July near $60,000, with the July 28–29 Fed meeting expected to determine whether the recent sell-off extends or a recovery begins. The main risks remain hawkish Fed policy and continued spot Bitcoin ETF outflows, while whale accumulation and an oversold market provide the strongest bullish arguments. Key levels to watch are $58,000 support and $63,800 resistance; a sustained return of ETF inflows could signal that a broader r

The post The Disney Movie That Should Have Been Made With AI appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Disney is famous for innovation, but the new ‘Moana’ remake has generated criticism for a lack of originality. (Photo by RONDA CHURCHILL/AFP via Getty Images) AFP via Getty Images Few genres of film have been as much of a gamble for Disney as the live-action remakes of its classic cartoons. Last year alone, Lilo & Stitch grossed $1 billion and became almost as beloved as the animated original while Snow White lost an estimated $170 million and cast a dark spell on the studio due to a slew of negative coverage. The latest addition to Disney’s stable is coming for Snow White’s crown as the criticism of it is so harsh that it raises the question of whether it would have been better to make the movie with Artificial Intelligence (AI). The movie in question is Moana, starring newcomer Catherine Laga’aia as the eponymous Polynesian teenager who joins demigod Maui, played by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Joh
