The post Hyperliquid Price Outlook for July 2026 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Hyperliquid (HYPE) trades near $71.82, up 4.4% in 24 hours, as bulls attempt a third breakout above the $76.70 all-time high. The token has gained roughly 250% from its January low near $20.50. Record protocol revenue and fresh inflows from exchange-traded funds (ETFs) back the attempt. Meanwhile, monthly token unlocks and growing regulatory scrutiny keep sellers well-supplied with arguments for a lower Hyperliquid price target. Hyperliquid Price Chart in June 2026. Source: CoinGecko Record Revenue and ETF Inflows Strengthen the Bull Case Hyperliquid crossed $1 billion in cumulative protocol revenue on June 30, according to DeFiLlama. The platform routes about 99% of trading fees into open-market HYPE purchases through its Assistance Fund, according to Tokenomist data. Therefore, the July 6 unlock of 9.92 million HYPE, worth around $645 million, met a buyback fund reportedly holding 4.6 times that amo

The post Euro watches its best arguments sink in the Strait of Hormuz appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Euro spent Tuesday assembling the sort of case that should buy a currency a bid: hawkish-leaning remarks from an unlikely corner of the European Central Bank (ECB), a softening American payrolls proxy, and a Federal Reserve (Fed) regional president content to say nothing new. The market read the file, shrugged, and sold the single currency anyway, fading it from an early peak just shy of 1.1450 to a 1.1406 close, its weakest finish since last Wednesday. The Strait of Hormuz then finished the job, with late-session headlines confirming fresh Iranian strikes on commercial shipping and an American military and sanctions response that handed the Dollar a haven bid into the close. What began as quiet positioning ahead of Wednesday’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes ended with the pair pinned near its low and Brent Crude Oil sharply higher. A hawkish dove, a soft payroll

The post New Zealand Dollar slips ahead of RBNZ rate decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. NZD/USD loses ground near the 0.5680 level as investors look ahead to Wednesday’s Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) policy decision, while the US Dollar (USD) remains supported by cautious remarks from the Federal Reserve (Fed). The latest US labor data showed the ADP Employment Change 4-week average eased to 21K from 24.25K, pointing to softer private hiring. However, the Greenback held firm after New York Fed President John Williams said the US economy is growing at a steady pace, the labor market remains stable, and inflation is still elevated. In New Zealand, the RBNZ is widely expected to raise the Official Cash Rate (OCR) by 25 basis points, from 2.25% to 2.50%, ending a three-meeting pause. The decision could bring volatility, as economists remain divided after May’s close 3-3 split, when Governor Breman cast the deciding vote to hold rates steady. Short-term technical analysis: O

The post Bitcoin rally now depends on one Fed document coming Wednesday appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve publishes the minutes of its June 16–17 meeting on Wednesday at 2 p.m. ET, and the release will either validate Bitcoin’s week-long recovery or pull out its foundation. Traders bought the rebound on a single macro assumption: a weakening US labor market limits how long the central bank can stay hawkish. The minutes, the first full account of internal deliberations under Chair Kevin Warsh, will show whether officials shared that concern in mid-June, weeks before the jobs data that set the rally in motion. The move riding on the answer is substantial. Bitcoin traded near $64,000 on Tuesday, up almost 11% from the 21-month low below $58,000 it set on July 1, and swung more than $3,400 between $61,250 and $64,659 on Monday. The recovery began with Thursday’s US jobs report, which showed employers added 57,000 positions in June, roughly half of what economists exp
