Expanded Wholesale Central Bank Digital Currency Trial of Swiss National Bank Scheduled Until Mid-2027
================================================
As we approach the end of July 2025, the cryptocurrency market is showing positive momentum, with various digital assets exhibiting varying outlooks. Here's a snapshot of the current situation for some of the most popular cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin (BTC) has consolidated between roughly $116,000 to $120,000 after hitting a new all-time high around $123,000 (June 14). The current price discovery phase could push it toward $125,000 in the near term, with some projections estimating long-term highs between $500,000 to $1 million by 2030, driven by factors like institutional ETF inflows and macroeconomic shifts such as interest rate cuts[1][3]. However, short-term caution remains due to mixed technical indicators.
Ethereum (ETH) has regained dominance and price strength, recently breaking above key resistance levels around $3,730 and eyeing a potential move to the $4,000 mark. Its utility in smart contracts and staking rewards sustains investor interest[1][2][3].
Ripple (XRP) is rebounding after retesting a key support level near $2.99, suggesting further recovery potential. XRP's recent surge (over 16% in a recent week) indicates renewed enthusiasm tied to its network utility and potential developments[1][3][4].
Litecoin (LTC), often regarded as a "digital silver" complement to Bitcoin's "digital gold," is less prominently mentioned in recent analyses, but specific current price or outlook details are not provided in the available data.
Cardano (ADA) has experienced a notable surge (about 14.7% in the past week), reflecting investor confidence possibly due to its clear roadmap, scalable blockchain technology, and upcoming upgrades[2][4].
Monero (XMR), a leading privacy-focused coin, receives little direct mention in recent summaries, though it maintains a steady niche demand. Its outlook depends on privacy trends and regulatory responses, which are not detailed in the current sources.
Solana (SOL) jumped strongly recently (about 18% in a week), benefiting from scalability and fast transaction capabilities. It remains a top choice for investors seeking high-performance smart contract platforms alongside Ethereum[2][4].

Ripple, Cardano, and Solana display strong momentum fueled by network improvements and investor enthusiasm. Litecoin and Monero, while still relevant, receive less immediate attention in current market narratives. Overall, the crypto market in July 2025 appears bullish, supported by favorable macro factors, increasing adoption, and ongoing technical upgrades[1][2][3][4].
