August 4, 2025 – Whether it can be described only as a dramatic week turnaround, the global cryptocurrency market has said in a strong recovery, a turbulent start by August, by hitting billions of dolers back to lost value. Between institutional accumulation, regulatory optimism and signs of macroeconomic volutality, market water are rearranged its forecasts.
How the market came out
In early August, the Crypto markets faced a sharp pullback. Bitcoin (BTC ($ 114,613.00) was immersed below $ 112,000 and Ethereum (eth ($ 3,549.37)) saw a temporary violation under $ 3,400. By Sunday, however, both tokens had withdrawn the lost ground. The BTC rose 2.8% to $ 114,453, which increased by 3% in Eth 24 hours above $ 3,500. According to the tradingview, the total crypto market capitalization is now $ 3.6 trillion, which is $ 85 billion from a day earlier.
Despite this recovery, it was noted that the trading volume actually declined by 12%, $ 131.36 billion for the total day. This deviation – rising prices in falling quantities – dislikes are called “Sunday pumps”. These usually exploit the duration of liquidity for strategic value movements rather than wide-based market speed led by large holders.
Altcoin Surge and comprehensive market strength
While BTC and Eth remain the gravitational centers of the market, many Altcoins improved big companies:
- XRP ($ 3.00) After rumors of upcoming partnership in Asia, 4%climbed from increased speculation.
- Cardano (ADA ($ 0.74)) It was observed that a 5.11% jump was raised over its network as DEFI activity in the weekend.
- Dogcoin (dog ($ 0.20)) Rose 4.18%, X (east Twitter) seems to be operated by a fresh meme coin speculation.
- HBAR ($ 0.25) and stellar (XLM ($ 0.41)) Posted the most notable benefits – both are using their respective networks due to institutional pilot programs.
- Pi Network Country token 4%of the rallies, a quiet but continuously continuing upwards, expands its menet beta.
Whale behavior and Twap strategy
Behind the curtain, large institutional players can orchestrate weekly. Blockstream CEO Adam Back reported that a “bitfinex whale” is currently purchasing around 300 BTC per day using a TWAP (time -wight average price) strategy. This method spreads an order over time to reduce the effects of the market and avoid slipping, often used by funds or high-net-world individuals, which are aimed at enough to build widely.

Regulatory development provides clarity
Another major tailwind comes out of regulatory signals out of Washington. At the end of last week, US Securities and Exchange Commission (Sec) Project CryptoThe discovery of compliance with tokens and decentralized finance (DEFI) interested in a multi-step.
The part of the program consists of prominent players such as coinbase, circle, fidelity digital assets and channelis. Although there is no formal law, it marks a significant change in the tone -for exploration.
The rumors coupled with rumors that many pending atherium spot ETF applications can be initial by Q4 2025, this regulator axis has injected optimism in both retail and institutional areas.
Inflation, mice and global stress
Beyond the Crypto-foreign devilops, the global macroeconomic conduct is quietly fueling the epilizing epilic of Bitcoin as a risk-handage. With the cooling of American inflation faster than expected, the Fed indicates a powerful rate cut in September (current CME Fedwatch tool is estimated at 80%), in more unstable, asymmetric opportunities such as capital safe havans and digital assets like bonds.
In addition, new trading tensions restored by Trump-Ed-Air Tariff on Chinese goods have made global markets unsafe. As the geo -political risk is reduced, the “Digital Gold” story of bitcoin has re -received traction, spying in Asian markets. Tether (USDT ($ 1.00)) has often invested more than $ 2.3 billion in the last 7 days for Asia-based demand, often a proxy for Asia-based demand.
