Dragonfly partner Haseeb responded to "The US Department of Justice is considering charging DragonFly employees in the Tornado Cash case." "Dragonfly invested in Tornado Cash developer PepperSec, Inc in August 2020 because they believe in the importance of open-source privacy protection technology. Before the investment, Dragonfly obtained external legal advice confirming that Tornado Cash's construction complies with legal requirements and complies with the guidelines issued by FinCEN, a subsidiary of the US Department of the Treasury, in 2019. The US government has publicly stated in court that they are considering charging Dragonfly. Based on legal advice, we have temporarily refrained from making public comments, but have decided not to remain silent." "We believe that Americans have the right to privacy, and the lack of privacy remains one of the biggest unsolved problems in the cryptocurrency field. Therefore, we adhere to our investment position. It is outrageous to charge Dragonfly after many years, contrary to facts and laws, and will have a chilling effect on investments in all US cryptocurrency and privacy protection technologies. Dragonfly intends to vigorously defend itself."

CryptoQuant analyst Axel posted on social media that the realized net profit and loss chart clearly shows that during the price increase phase, investors will see a clear peak in profit taking. Before the price enters a deep correction, we are likely to see one or two waves of profit taking. Each wave of profit taking will be accompanied by a short-term correction and consolidation, but as long as the realized net profit peak does not exceed the previous extreme value or is of a comparable scale, the bull market trend will remain intact. Ideally, these healthy corrections will cool down the market from an overheated state and continue the upward trend.

Matrixport posted on social media, stating that it expects the market cooling phase to continue until August. The technical reversal indicator shows that both Bitcoin and Ethereum are not only overbought, but also prone to pullbacks, and the end of the US cryptocurrency week marks the peak of market momentum. The White House has postponed its highly anticipated cryptocurrency report from the original July 22nd release to July 30th, which was expected to outline potential Bitcoin reserve strategies. Considering the release time just before the summer recess, market expectations should be moderate; the report is unlikely to contain any substantive or actionable policy guidance. This delay also indicates that the US government is prioritizing the "GENIUS Act," which is centered around stablecoins, with the core of the bill being to finance US government debt through a stablecoin backed by US Treasury bonds. This framework creates a strategic approach for the government to create debt demand and reinforces the importance of digital asset regulation at the macro financial level. As the market enters a relatively calm summer and approaches the seasonal recess, Matrixport expects unwinding (deleveraging) activities to increase. Many traders have established significant long positions that now require sustained upward momentum to maintain; without this momentum, confidence may weaken, especially considering the increased holding costs due to rising funding rates. This phenomenon is particularly evident in Ethereum, where open interest contracts have surged from $14 billion to $25 billion. Although funding rates have only risen slightly, they are likely to reprice lower with the arrival of summer, triggering further unwinding. In conclusion, the selling pressure from early investors profit-taking is increasing. All of this reinforces Matrixport's view: a summer consolidation is the most likely scenario at present.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel wrote that the net open interest (OI Net Position) of Bitcoin futures has plummeted into deep negative territory, breaking through the $100 million mark, reaching the highest bearish pressure level since early July. Despite facing bearish pressure, the price of Bitcoin is still holding around $115,000, indicating that some buyers are absorbing selling pressure. Axel stated that such extreme negative open interest divergence may trigger a short squeeze during a price rebound, but with open contracts maintaining the current high-pressure range, there is still further downside risk in the price.

bitcoin giants are using complex options strategies to make large bullish bets, with the goal of reaching a Bitcoin price of $200,000 by the end of the year.

This means that if BTC reaches or exceeds the higher strike price of $200,000 before the expiration date, the strategy will realize maximum profit.
