Crypto surges as BTC revisits ATH, ETH leads ETF inflows.

The crypto market is pressing against key resistance levels as Bitcoin flirts with new all‑time highs and Ethereum rides record ETF inflows. Altcoins are seeing selective breakouts, with AI, DePIN, and oracle plays leading the charge. Macro sentiment is buoyed by cooling inflation and expectations for Fed rate cuts in September, but traders are watching CPI data closely for confirmation.

Market snapshot:

  • Bitcoin is trading just under $123K after briefly tagging $123,000 — less than 1% from its ATH.

  • Ethereum is holding above $4,600 after a 25% August surge, outpacing BTC on the month.

  • Spot ETFs for both BTC and ETH are pulling in billions, with ETH products seeing $1B+ single‑day inflows.

  • Altcoin rotation is favoring infrastructure and AI sectors, while meme coin momentum cools.

What Is DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks)?
DePIN projects use blockchain to coordinate and reward participants who provide real‑world infrastructure — like wireless coverage, sensor data, or energy grids — without relying on a single company.

  • How it works:
    - Individuals deploy hardware (e.g., hotspots, sensors) and earn tokens for contributing data or services.
    - Smart contracts handle payments and verification automatically.
    - Networks scale faster because anyone can join and contribute.

  • Example: Helium Network pays users in HNT tokens for providing wireless coverage via personal hotspots, creating a decentralized telecom alternative.

Why it matters now: The first global DePIN Expo will be held in Hong Kong on Aug 27–28, 2025, highlighting the sector’s growth and integration with AI, real‑world assets, and IoT hardware.
