LEGACY MARKETS – DXY
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - DXY](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/b063ea7a19d5821a09903b6e0a958f74475155ef-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
DXY started coming down last week. This is good for equities and crypto overall, and ideally, it will fall to a range low (100-102).
LEGACY MARKETS – VIX
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - VIX](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/dc774db5f34eb038a2f2cb749ba0d607129c8a68-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
VIX is still stabilizing on the lows, with equities trading new all-time highs and crypto finally rebounding.
BTC WEEKLY VIEW
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - BTC](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/5c10fbd032e4b7feebaeb4d8ab52cff1461cddcf-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
After the German government ran out of selling, bitcoin price started rebounding pretty fast. With the Trump events over the weekend, BTC managed to close the weekly back out of the 52-58k range, opening up the path to new ATHs.
ETH WEEKLY VIEW
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - ETH](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/a23eb5f91c7b29fd43d7d470fcc71130ad450059-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
With all the issues for the spot ETF launch out of the way, it seems that the ETH ETF will actually launch this week.
ETH/BTC
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - ETH/BTC](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/2a055b8ca33d2f3ea4ff7c7941a3907050a60030-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
ETH/BTC is still consolidating in its new uptrend. With the spot ETF most likely launching this week, it seems a given that ETH/BTC will trend upwards further.
TOTAL3 USD MARKET STRENGTH
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - TOTAL3/USD](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/0966a8774d1e1d3151ae11f6c2e2bb5d437c0828-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
After the BTC recovery, alts mostly stayed stable. Some have rallied with BTC, but most are still building new price bases. They are likely waiting for ETH to make a larger wave to get some trickle down in the more general altcoin market.
TOTAL3 BTC MARKET STRENGTH
![Crypto Market Pulse: July 15, 2024: Kairon Labs Crypto Market Insights - TOTAL3/BTC](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/dzmgtty0/production/caac2dd16e3991d9b2131163bf21c5b8d38dbe56-1920x1061.jpg?w=3840&h=2122&q=80&fit=crop&auto=format)
TOTAL3/BTC is still chopping near range lows. For a general alt season to start, we’d want this ratio to break out of the range (above the red-marked area).
SUMMARY
- Direct selling pressure from the German government is gone. MT.GOX distributions are known, but the potential selling pressure from this event is much more ambiguous, as most of the claims have already been sold to larger parties.
- The ETH ETF seems poised to launch this week. If the inflows are large and ETH rallies, it could revitalize the market after its recent slump.
