Cryptocurrency Live News & Updates : Bitcoin Could Reach $166,000, Says CryptoCon
04 Aug 2025 | 11:45:13 PM IST According to analyst CryptoCon, Bitcoin's price trajectory suggests a potential rise to $166,000, following a Fibonacci model that has guided its movements over the past two years. The cryptocurrency market is buzzing with speculation as Bitcoin's price recently dipped to around $114,500 after hitting an all-time high of $123,000. Analyst CryptoCon predicts a rise to $166,000 based on Fibonacci extensions, a pattern observed in previous cycles. Meanwhile, the broader crypto market is experiencing a rally, with Bitcoin rebounding to $115,300 and altcoins like Spark and MemeCore gaining traction. This surge follows the successful Circle Internet IPO and potential changes in the Federal Reserve's leadership, which could lead to interest rate cuts, historically favorable for crypto prices. Additionally, Ethena has shown strong performance, rallying 11.23% and holding above key support levels, while new projects like Pepeto are gaining attention due to their utility-driven models. Chainlink is also making strides by launching Data Streams for U.S. equities, enhancing the tokenized asset market. As the market evolves, analysts are closely watching these developments, with the potential for significant price movements in the coming months. Show more

SEOUL, South Korea, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- MemeCore, the world's first Layer 1 blockchain purpose-built for the Meme 2.0 movement, has officially announced the commencement of its acquisition process for a KOSDAQ-listed company, marking a significant step in its expansion into the South Korean market. As a pioneer in the viral economy, MemeCore aims to redefine meme coins as lasting cultural and economic assets. The project introduces a new paradigm — Meme 2.0 — driven by its proprietary consensus algorithm, Proof of Meme (PoM), which enhances the on-chain value and connectivity of diverse community-driven meme coins. MemeCore has recently drawn global attention after becoming the second-largest holder of $TRUMP and participating in an exclusive private dinner hosted by U.S. President Donald Trump. The invite-only event, reserved for the top 25 holders of $TRUMP, saw MemeCore co-founder ICE in attendance, signaling the growing influence and recognition of the project on the world stage. "By acquiring a KOSDAQ-listed company, we aim to establish a stronger foothold in South Korea — one of the most active markets in crypto trading — and further accelerate our expansion into the region," said Jun, CEO of MemeCore. The acquisition is a strategic move that positions MemeCore for ISMS certification and Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration in Korea. This milestone will also provide the groundwork for a robust domestic dApp ecosystem built on MemeCore's native mainnet. The acquired company is expected to realign its business operations to focus on Web3 innovation and digital assets. MemeCore is currently in negotiations and conducting due diligence with several listed companies. Upon completion of the acquisition, the project plans to sequentially launch MRC-20 token services and community-powered dApps tailored for the Korean market.

Trump's top meme coin investors visit White House
Despite repeated claims from the White House that President Donald Trump's Thursday night gala for the top holders of his cryptocurrency meme coin had nothing to do with his official duties, several of those investors visited the White House Friday afternoon for what they described as a special VIP event, the attendees told ABC News. Sangrok Oh, a Korean crypto investor and entrepreneur, told ABC News on Friday that he and other top investors had been invited to tour the White House Friday afternoon, though it was not clear to him whether Trump himself would meet them. "So, we're going to visit and tour the White House [and] at the same time talk about crypto industries and the future of crypto," Oh said. Thursday night's black tie event, held at Trump's Washington-area golf club, was attended by around 200 cryptocurrency traders, including many from overseas, who gained admission through a contest that awarded invitations to the top investors in Trump's meme coin -- with at least some of the funds flowing directly into the Trump family's coffers. Critics have blasted the gala as a "pay for play" event in which investors who poured millions into Trump's crypto coin got special access to the president. News that top $TRUMP coin investors visited the White House appeared to contradict White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's assertion Thursday that the president was attending the crypto gala in a personal capacity, and that since the dinner did not take place at the White House, it was separate from his official duties. "The president is attending [the dinner] in his personal time," Leavitt said Thursday. "It is not a White House dinner. It's not taking place here at the White House." The White House did not immediately respond on Friday to a request for comment from ABC News. Cherry Hsu, an executive at MemeCore, a Singapore-based blockchain startup, said the firm's founder, known publicly as "Ice," had also been invited to the White House on Friday afternoon. MemeCore, according to the contest leaderboard, finished second in the competition with $TRUMP coin holdings in excess of $1 million. And late Friday, Justin Sun, a Chinese crupto mogul and the top investor in Trump's meme coin, posted a highly produced video of his White House tour, writing on X, "Was an honor to be invited to tour the @WhiteHouse. Such a privilege to see it in person." In addition to his multimillion-dollar investment in the $TRUMP coin, Sun has also invested $75 million in World Liberty Financial, another Trump-backed crypto venture. One month after that investment, SEC lawyers under the Trump administration moved to halt an alleged fraud case against Sun. The Trump meme coin's website at one point earlier this month advertised a "Special VIP White House tour" for the top 25 meme coin holders as part of the contest -- but as of last week, the site said only that a "Special VIP tour" would be arranged, without mentioning the White House. The site also included a disclaimer saying the tour was being arranged by the Fight Fight Fight LLC, and that the president himself would be appearing as a "guest."
