Here’s a quick recap of the crypto landscape for Wednesday (August 1) as of 9:00 a.m. UTC.

Get the latest insights on Bitcoin, Ethereum and altcoins, along with a round-up of key cryptocurrency market news.

Bitcoin and Ethereum price update

Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at US$114,797, down by 2.8 percent over the last 24 hours. Its highest valuation on Friday was US$118,696, while its lowest valuation was US$114,322.

Bitcoin’s price drop followed sweeping new US tariffs, including a 35 percent levy on Canadian imports, which rattled risk assets broadly. In parallel, the Federal Reserve’s decision to maintain interest rates at 4.25 percent –4.50 percent and stronger-than-expected inflation data dampened hopes of near-term rate cuts, adding downside pressure to Bitcoin’s price

Ethereum (ETH) was priced at US$3,595.75, down by 5.2 percent over the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Friday was US$3,591.61, and its highest was US$3,809.48.

Altcoin price update

  • Solana (SOL) was priced at US$167.55, down by 5.4 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Friday was US$165.43, and its highest was US$179.17.
  • XRP was trading for US$3.03, down by 2.2 percent in the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$2.91, and its highest valuation was US$3.13.

Today’s crypto news to know

Coinbase revenue misses as trading volumes lag

Shares of Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN) fell 12 percent in premarket trading Friday (August 1) after the crypto exchange missed Wall Street expectations for second-quarter revenue.

While revenue grew 3.3 percent year over year to US$1.5 billion, it fell short of the US$1.59 billion estimate and was down from US$2 billion in the previous quarter.

Spot trading volumes declined globally and in the US, with average market capitalization roughly flat during the period, according to the company’s shareholder letter.

Still, net income surged to US$1.43 billion, largely from unrealized gains on its crypto holdings and investments.

Coinbase continues to diversify, noting it is testing traditional stock, FX, and commodity trading. The company was recently added to the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:INX) in May.

Assetera expands access to tokenized securities with Plug-and-Play API

Austria-based trading platform Assetera has launched a MiFID-compliant API that lets crypto exchanges offer tokenized securities, which include US Treasuries and blue-chip stocks, without needing their own regulatory license.

The service provides over 60 financial instruments at launch and handles all compliance responsibilities, including KYC and anti-money laundering checks. Assetera is targeting crypto platforms in the European Union and European Economic Area, aiming to break the dominance of major players like Kraken and Gemini in tokenized assets.

The company says it’s in discussions with several top-20 global crypto exchanges and anticipates €1 billion in trading volume during its first year.

Strategy’s US$10 billion profit fails to impress investors, treasury model dominates

Despite posting a massive US$10 billion profit for Q2, Strategy’s (NASDAQ:MSTR) share price dropped 1.4 percent in after-hours trading, highlighting investor concern about the company’s future beyond Bitcoin.

Strategy, formerly focused on enterprise software, has increasingly transformed into a corporate Bitcoin treasury. The firm now holds over 628,000 BTC, comprising more than 3 percent of the total supply, valued at US$74 billion.

Michael Saylor’s pivot has inspired imitators like Japan’s Metaplanet, which converted hotel assets into crypto. Despite the dip, the firm’s next move includes raising US$4.2 billion through a new STRC offering to buy more Bitcoin.
