Digital investments are constantly moving, and this week has been no exception. We are here to offer you a clear overview of the latest events and how they can influence your decisions.
US Dollar Strengthens
We have observed how the strengthening of the US dollar and expectations of possible interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve are impacting both traditional markets and cryptocurrencies. A stronger dollar can sometimes generate downward pressure on some cryptos, as seen with the nearly 6% drop in the SUI token after a brief rebound.
Interest in Solana Staking
On the other hand, this week there have been investments in projects like Solana by Upexi and DeFi Development Corp, who have added Solana to their treasury, as this asset has gained more popularity among traditional investors and especially as there is interest in generating returns on these types of assets.

ETH Regains Institutional Confidence
A highlight from the weekend was the increase in activity of large Ethereum wallets. SharpLink Gaming acquired more than 77,000 ETH and immediately staked them, an action that demonstrates a long-term vision. They are not alone; other institutions have also been accumulating Ethereum, suggesting sustained confidence in this asset in a recovering market.
Keys to Building and Understanding Your Portfolio
To navigate the world of investments, it’s useful to know some key terms. For example, if you hear about “$1 billion in Ethereum ‘shorts’ about to be liquidated,” this refers to a situation where many investors have bet that the price of Ethereum will go down. If, instead, the price of Ethereum goes up, these bets are automatically closed. When this happens on a large scale, it can create a sudden demand for Ethereum, which in turn can make its price rise even faster. This is called a “short squeeze” and is one of the reasons why prices can move quickly at certain times. Understanding these concepts helps you anticipate when the market might experience significant changes.
