Ethereum Near 1,900 as Bitcoin Consolidates

Ethereum is hovering around the 1,900s with analysts noting that a hold at the 1,850 support could open a path back toward the upper channel around 2,060, while open-interest and net position data hint at the potential for a larger rally; traders also point to a shorter-term bullish setup and a possible breakout toward near 1,990 on faster timeframes. The weekly view shows mixed momentum with prices below major moving averages, yet institutional demand is rising as ETFs hold over $10 billion in ETH, and near-term action is expected to range roughly between 1,765 and 2,080 with a bullish target near 1,990 if a breakout occurs.

Foundry's BIP-110 Vote Tests Miner Consensus

Foundry USA, which controls about a third of Bitcoin’s hashrate, opened a hashrate-weighted vote on whether to signal support for BIP-110, counting non-responses as No and requiring 51% of participating hashrate to switch to Yes; the voting window runs until early August at block 961,632. The proposal would temporarily cap non-monetary data in blocks to curb Ordinals, but critics warn it could freeze funds or invalidate ordinary transactions, and current support is well under 1%, leaving activation unlikely despite Foundry’s potential influence.
