Wyoming, one of the fifty States in the United States, is working on plans to launch its stablecoin. With the plan to fully back the stablecoins with the US Dollar, Wyoming is positioning itself as the first in the country to issue such payment tokens. According to Governor Mark Gordon, the state is making moves to jump onto the bandwagon as early as July.
Wyoming Stablecoin Pivot Aligns With Federal Government Pivot
According to a Bloomberg report, Governor Gordon is very positive about the stablecoin push. He believes most financial stakeholders are not bullish enough about the stable asset firm.
The Governor reference the position of JPMorgan Chase CEO, Jimon Dimon a while back regarding plans to venture into the stablecoin niche earlier. He said he once pitched Wyoming to him and the bank as the state has the right “framework to do it.”
While only a few mainstream firms have entered the stablecoin scene, Wyoming may be pioneering a new wave in the digital payments ecosystem. This move comes as the President Donald Trump administration is pushing for legislation for the ecosystem.
Despite a sharp 10% correction from its five-month high, Hedera (HBAR) price is starting to show signs of internal strength that could set the stage for a surprise bounce.
While retail traders continue to short the asset, data reveals whales have been quietly adding to their stacks, hinting that the recent dip might be more of a shakeout than a breakdown.
Whales Accumulate, Netflows Validate
HBAR price may be down from its $0.30 high, but big players are seeing it as a buy-the-dip opportunity. Since July 20, the number of wallets holding at least 1 million HBAR has jumped almost 5%, and those with 10 million or more are up almost 4.5%. That kind of activity from whales usually signals quiet accumulation, not panic.

This metric tracks how much HBAR is entering or exiting exchanges. A strong outflow trend means holders are withdrawing tokens, less likely to be sold. In simple terms, whales are buying and moving coins off-exchange, which often sets up bullish conditions.
OBV Momentum Aligns With Whale Buying
The On-Balance Volume (OBV) chart adds another layer of validation. OBV measures the cumulative volume flow, essentially tracking whether volume is coming from buyers or sellers. A rising OBV during a price climb shows real buying support.
For HBAR, OBV has been trending higher since early July, and even after the recent dip, it hasn’t cracked. That’s key. The whale buying and netflow behavior wouldn’t mean much if volume wasn’t backing it.
But OBV confirms it: the demand behind the scenes is still very much alive. This strengthens the accumulation narrative and hints that the dip may be running out of steam.
HBAR Price Holds Key Support, But Needs a Trigger
HBAR is currently holding just above the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement at $0.26, a level it must protect. Above this, a breakout beyond $0.30 is possible if momentum returns, led by increased whale positioning and outflows. However, $0.26 remains the key support, and a dip under that renders the bullish hypothesis weak.
While the above chart captures the broader swing, from $0.12 to $0.30, a bird’s eye view of the chart also reveals a few key levels that HBAR might need to break in order to inch towards the 5-month high.

Per the shorter swing chart, $0.28 remains a key level for HBAR to break. And the $0.26 level serves as the key support, aligning with the bigger swing or the primary chart.
All signs point to strength beneath the surface; whales are buying, supply is draining, and OBV hasn’t broken down. Yet, price hasn’t popped. That suggests the market’s waiting on a trigger, possibly a shift in retail sentiment.
In the minds of many investors, Bitcoin (BTC) is like a dream of wealth—a magical asset capable of growing hundreds of percent annually and sending its value “to the moon” with million-dollar price tags.
Analyst Willy Woo believes that Bitcoin’s boom times may be over. However, not everyone agrees.
Willy Woo predicts Bitcoin’s CAGR will decline and stabilize at 8%
Woo shared a chart titled “Bitcoin Annualised Returns,” showing that Bitcoin’s compound annual growth rate (CAGR) has dropped sharply, from over 100% in 2017 to around 30–40% after 2020.
That was the period when major institutions, including corporations and governments, began accumulating Bitcoin.
“People think BTC is like a magical unicorn that climbs to infinity on moonbeams. Here’s the actual CAGR chart. We are well past the 2017 year where we’d see many 100s of percent growth,” Willy Woo said.
Woo forecasts that Bitcoin’s CAGR will continue to decline over the next 15–20 years and eventually stabilize around 8%. This rate aligns with long-term monetary growth (5%) and GDP growth (3%). He emphasized that even with a lower CAGR, Bitcoin will still outperform most other publicly traded assets.
However, investor and author Fred Krueger disagreed. He pointed out that Bitcoin has already increased 7x from its December 2022 low, now trading at $103,000 as of May 2025.
Additionally, in a recent interview, Arthur Hayes went even further. He predicted that Bitcoin would reach $1 million before the end of Donald Trump’s current term. He expects the price to hit $250,000 by the end of 2025, representing a 1,000% increase in just four years.
GDP and liquidity growth seen as key drivers of Bitcoin’s future gains
Woo’s prediction is largely based on GDP expansion and monetary growth. Meanwhile, Paul Guerra, Head of Social at RealVision, offered deeper insights on the matter.
Discussing liquidity, he argued that traditional diversification strategies may no longer work in today’s market environment. That’s because assets like stocks, bonds, Bitcoin, and real estate now tend to move together, driven by a single key factor: liquidity.
“The true driver of markets is liquidity — the amount of money flowing through the system,” Paul said.
The Global Liquidity Index is currently growing at 8% annually. To understand liquidity, Paul suggested that we must first understand GDP. He presented a formula for GDP growth: GDP Growth = Population Growth + Productivity Growth + Debt Growth.
But today, population growth and productivity are declining worldwide. As a result, governments are being forced to inject liquidity to sustain GDP and support rising debt.
“Populations are AGING. Productivity gains are FLAT. Debt is EXPLODING. To keep GDP alive and service people’s debt, governments have only one tool: Pump liquidity,” Paul explained.

As a result, liquidity is expected to increase at an even faster rate. Paul predicted that Bitcoin could reach $300,000 by the end of 2025 and enter what he calls the “Banana Zone.” This term describes periods of massive asset price increases fueled by abundant liquidity.
Historical examples include Bitcoin’s 19,900% gain from 2013–2017, and Ethereum’s 699,900% surge in previous cycles.
Still, these analyses focus heavily on macroeconomic factors while overlooking potential technical risks. For instance, concerns are growing that advancements in quantum computing could threaten trust in Bitcoin’s long-term viability.
