The post ProShares XRP ETF Won’t Launch on April 30, Says Bloomberg Analyst James Seyffart appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Recently, several crypto media outlets mistakenly reported that the SEC had approved ProShares’ XRP ETFs for an April 30 launch. The confusion stemmed from an old filing dated April 15, which resurfaced online and was incorrectly shared as a new development. Despite the rumors spreading quickly across social media, ProShares made no official announcement.
According to Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart, while the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has indeed given its approval, the launch date has been pushed back and is now expected sometime in the short to medium term. Meanwhile, Brazil has already taken the lead by approving the first XRP ETF.
ProShares has ambitious plans for XRP exposure. The company is preparing to launch three XRP futures ETFs:
These products are aimed at institutional investors looking for regulated ways to speculate on XRP’s price swings—without the complications of holding the asset directly. Futures ETFs also help bypass many of the security and regulatory hurdles typically associated with direct crypto ownership.
Teucrium made history earlier this month by launching the first XRP futures ETF on the New York Stock Exchange on April 8. The fund saw encouraging trading volumes from day one, signaling strong market appetite for XRP-based investment vehicles. ProShares’ upcoming entries are expected to further deepen the XRP ETF market.
While futures ETFs are gaining momentum, spot XRP ETFs remain stuck in the regulatory pipeline. ProShares, along with firms like Grayscale and 21Shares, is still waiting for the SEC’s green light. After facing initial delays in April, most applications are now looking toward a second decision window by late May. Some cases may not see a final verdict until mid-October.
Despite the uncertainty, optimism is building. JPMorgan estimates that XRP ETPs could attract between $4 billion and $8 billion in net inflows if they achieve adoption rates similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

The post TRUMP Coin Set For First Major Token Unlock This July. ARB, SUIAnd More To Follow appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
With several high-profile unlocks already underway, July 2025 continues to shape up as one of the most impactful months, with over $1.8 billion in cumulative value scheduled, including the now-completed $323M unlock from SUI earlier this month, the largest of July. According to TokenUnlocks data, unlock activity will peak in the third week of July at nearly $1 billion.
This influx of supply comes at a time of cautious market sentiment and reactive liquidity flows, turning each event into a potential catalyst. From Solana-based meme coins like TRUMP to Layer-2 leaders like Arbitrum (ARB) and modular chains like SUI, the unlock wave offers both risk and short-term trading opportunities.

Unlock Date: July 18, 2025
Unlock Amount: ~90M TRUMP
Value: ~$455M–$462M
% of Max Supply: ~9%
Category: Creators & CIC Digital 1–4 allocations
President Donald Trump has reportedly added over $620 million to his net worth through cryptocurrency ventures, with the TRUMP token playing a central role. The token, a Solana-based meme coin that once surged on viral hype and political fandom, is now at the centre of a substantial unlock event that could impact price volatility and market sentiment. This unlock marks the first major release of team and contributor tokens, following a 6–12 month cliff. With only 20% of TRUMP’s 1 billion supply currently circulating, the upcoming 9% unlock significantly changes its tokenomics, introducing new liquidity and potential sell pressure.

TRUMP is trading around $8.60, consolidating in a tight range ahead of its $455M token unlock on July 18. Price action remains subdued, with the formation of lower highs since its $11.30 peak in early June.
The Alligator indicators that represent different timeframes and help traders identify when a market is trending, consolidating, or preparing to reverse are fully fanned out in a bearish formation, with the green line (Lips) trailing below the red (Teeth) and blue (Jaw), confirming a persistent downtrend.
The RSI at 38.5, while rising slightly above its signal line at 36.8, suggests weak bullish momentum but still hovers in bearish territory, implying hesitation from buyers.
A breakdown below $8.00 could accelerate losses to $7.50, with $6.90 as the next major demand zone.
Conversely, a close above $9.20 is needed to invalidate this structure and target $10.50. Until then, the unlock event and broader meme coin fatigue weigh heavily on sentiment.

Unlock Date: July 16, 2025
Unlock Amount: ~92.65M ARB
Value: ~$30.3M
% of Max Supply: ~1.17%

Arbitrum remains the dominant force among Ethereum Layer-2s, currently holding over $2.4 billion in TVL—representing approximately 55–60% of all L2 value locked, as per DeFiLlama.
June saw explosive growth across Arbitrum DeFi protocols like Uniswap, Fluid, and SushiSwap, collectively drawing 2.4M+ users and sustaining high DEX liquidity.
Yet, despite strong fundamentals, the upcoming unlock for team and advisors introduces a fresh token supply that could dampen short-term price action.

Arbitrum (ARB) trades at $0.33, consolidating below the $0.34 resistance after multiple failed attempts to push higher. Price structure remains fragile, with no clear higher highs since the late June bounce. The Williams %R sits at –67, indicating bearish momentum creeping back in as buyers struggle to sustain pressure.
Support rests near $0.310, with a breakdown risking a slide toward $0.285. If bears gain traction post-unlock, deeper moves toward $0.250 could follow.
On the upside, ARB must close above $0.342 to signal a trend reversal. A breakout there could pave the way to $0.375 and possibly $0.41 if momentum revives alongside strong L2 narrative traction.
LayerZero, the newly launched omnichain interoperability protocol, is set to unlock 24.68M ZRO tokens (~$46.5M)—its first major post-airdrop release, expanding circulating supply by over 2.5% within weeks of listing.
AVAIL, the modular data availability chain founded by a Polygon co-creator, will unlock 990.6M tokens (~$23.7M)—a staggering 9.2% of its total supply, potentially triggering volatility in the under-the-radar L1 space.
XDAO, a rising DAO infrastructure protocol, will release 6.44M tokens worth over $330M, a disproportionately large unlock that could create sharp price swings given its low market cap and liquidity.
MOCA, a Web3 culture and GameFi governance token, is scheduled to unlock 241.72M tokens this week, aimed at community and contributor rewards, injecting liquidity into a niche but growing ecosystem.
Plume Network, focused on real-world asset tokenization, is unlocking 239.8M tokens (~$21M) just ahead of its mainnet launch phase, highlighting investor interest in the RWA narrative

The post Top Two Low-Cap Altcoins To Buy in 2025 appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
As crypto eyes another bull run heading into 2025, investors are on the hunt for next low-cap altcoins with strong fundamentals. According to an analyst, two tokens are quietly preparing for a surge, and they might just be early gems in the next DeFi wave.
The first project turning heads is Aerodrome, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol on Base, Ethereum’s layer-2 network. While it’s not the biggest in terms of total value locked (TVL), Aerodrome is leading the Base ecosystem in fees and revenue.
TVL on Base has been rising rapidly, and stablecoin usage is trending upward. Among all Base protocols, Aerodrome dominates in revenue, far outpacing its peers like Morpho and Spark.
The Aerodrome token has been trading in a sideways channel since March, and this could be a prime accumulation zone. If prices dip toward the bottom of the range, it may offer a strong buying opportunity, especially if Bitcoin holds firm
Next up is BlackHole, a brand-new DeFi token on Avalanche that’s catching fire. With $200 million+ in TVL and skyrocketing fees, it’s already out-earning top Avalanche protocols.
What makes BlackHole unique is its bridge infrastructure, enabling users to move tokens like PEPE between chains seamlessly. With growing rumors of Avalanche partnering with institutions, this infrastructure could become a critical piece of future adoption.
In just weeks, BlackHole crossed $1 billion in cumulative trading volume, and its active user base is growing.
