After its *thrilling* 50% discount sale in June (brought to you by the letter “F” and zero self-awareness), FARTCOIN has been doing the “ascending channel” cha-cha. Yesterday, it kicked the door off its hinges, surged 12%, and now it’s trading at levels last seen in late May—or, for the nostalgic among us, early January. You know, right before it peaked at $2.61 like a crypto version of *Mission Impossible*. 🧠💸
And it doesn’t stop there! This marks the 14th consecutive week of positive flows, pushing the year-to-date inflows to an impressive $27 billion. Total assets under management have soared to a new high of $220 billion. Can you believe it?!
Amidst the grand theatre of Bitcoin’s rise to glory, the excitement has slowed to a polite applause, as investors scramble like ants adjusting to the shifting sands of range-bound realities.
Yet, amidst this faintly tragic tapestry, a trio of U.S.-listed crypto stocks pirouettes onto the stage, basking in their own peculiar limelight. Herein lie the contenders for today’s quirky watchlist. 🎩✨
As per the illustrious data provided by crypto.news on the 22nd of July in the year 2025, the crypto world appears to be on a slippery slope, with Bitcoin (BTC) teetering slightly above the enchanting figure of $118,000, down a minuscule 0.21%—which, in the grand scheme of life, is akin to a goose egg if we consider the tumultuous ride it has enjoyed recently. If we peer into the muddied waters of Ethereum (ETH), it has managed to plunge a more dramatic 3.1%. Bravo!
But let us not be deceived by the simplicity of these words. For within the walls of this digital citadel, a symphony of achievements plays out, each note a testament to the unwavering dedication of KuCoin’s guardians. In the first half of 2025, they secured SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 certifications, as if donning the armor of the ancient knights, ready to face the trials of the modern world. And what a triumph it was! An AAA rating from CER.live, placing KuCoin among the elite, the chosen few who can claim the mantle of the most secure exchanges on the planet. 🛡️
This shiny new stablecoin is pegged 1:1 to the offshore Chinese yuan. It’s like the cool kid on the block, making cross-border payments a breeze, especially for those countries playing nice with China’s Belt and Road Initiative. Conflux has teamed up with fintech firm Anchorx to make this magic happen. The Conflux 3.0 upgrade is a beast, handling over 15,000 transactions per second and throwing in some onchain artificial intelligence agent calls for good measure. The initiative is a big wink to the growing love for stablecoins in China, as regulations get cozier with digital currencies. And let’s not forget Hong Kong’s new licensing regime for stablecoin issuers – it’s like the wild west out there! 🌵
After hitting a high of $0.93, ADA is now at $0.86, teetering on a tightrope of support. It’s like watching a toddler walk a balance beam—unpredictable and slightly terrifying. 🎭
Ethereum, that fickle friend who borrows your lawnmower and returns it with an empty gas tank, slipped below $3,700 after strutting around at $3,850 like it owned the place. At press time, it was loitering around $3,650, looking shifty-eyed and guilty.
On a rather mundane Monday, amid the flickering glow of screens, Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) sauntered up the memecoin ranks, sporting an audacious near 20% leap in the span of a mere 24 hours. Picture, if you will, the Solana-enhanced token pirouetting from a resplendent $0.031 to a six-month zenith of $0.040, before prudently retracing to a comfy $0.036 perch. The balance, a waltz of volatility!
