Dex-Trade News Digest: August 2024 Highlights
Welcome to the new edition of Dex-Trade's News Digest! The month has brought interesting events in the crypto world—from innovative proposals that could transform the course of the U.S. digital economy to great market moves according to regulatory decisions. Here's a rundown of the most important news:
1. US Proposes Tax-Free Bitcoin Economic Zone
A newly formed U.S. policy group, USABTC, is pushing for a Bitcoin tax-free digital economic zone. According to this very innovative proposal, the United States is going to be at the forefront in the cryptocurrency industry by never imposing capital gains taxes on Bitcoin trades by investors or businesses.
This, in its phased plan, starts with an executive directive and finally results in legislative action for the establishment of the DEZ. This can be a gigantic fillip to Bitcoin's adoption rate and secure America's financial future.
2. XRP and Stellar Surge After SEC Verdict
The Ripple case against the SEC finally came to an end, and the penalty was reduced. On the back of this, prices for both XRP and Stellar surged 20% to renew confidence in the market. Notably, after Ripple's victory about its retail trading and security status for XRP, the market becomes strengthened, thus further moving XRP back above critical support levels. In very similar ways, Stellar has also shown strength and is reclaiming higher support—targeting further upside.
3. Bitcoin and Ether See Price Recovery
After plunging to a sharp decline triggered by broader market jitters overnight, Bitcoin and Ether have hopped back 3%. For now, investors are taking advantage of cheaper prices, indicating that the market might recover. This pushes the general sentiment into cautious optimism, with fears of a larger liquidation. Global economic factors are also weighing on the turbulence, including a shock rate increase from the Bank of Japan and a weaker-than-anticipated jobs report for the U.S.
4. Trump Pushes for U.S. to Lead in Crypto
In a recent interview, Donald Trump urged the United States to further its crypto industry so as not to miss out on developments against global rivals such as China. He called on the U.S. to develop and improve its crypto infrastructure rather than pawning assets to support budgets. Further, he intends to propose using Bitcoin for the resolution of national debt, which only goes to underline just how digital currencies are already at the very epicenter of policies designed to shape the future of the global economy.
5. Smart Money Accumulates 4K ETH
An Ethereum wallet that boasts the 100% win rate has scooped up another 4,000 Ethereums, worth approximately $12.58 million. What appears to be a strategic purchase is part of the buying at low and selling at high points, with an accumulation profit of more than $38 million. This move came in tandem with rising inflows into Ethereum spot ETFs, signaling continuous interest and confidence in the prospects for Ether in the long run.
Conclusion
