Market Dynamics Analysis of Bitcoin (BTC) on August 12, 2025
On August 12, 2025, the Bitcoin (BTC) market exhibited a cautious yet optimistic trend. Bitcoin's price fluctuated around $122,000, approaching its historical high of $123,091, demonstrating strong upward momentum.
Key drivers of price increase
Institutional accumulation continues: Institutional investors are a significant force behind this rise. For example, MicroStrategy recently purchased 155 BTC at an average price of $116,400, showing strong confidence in long-term Bitcoin investment.
Strong inflow of Bitcoin ETF funds: Bitcoin ETF saw a net inflow of $1.9 billion in early August, a figure far exceeding the monthly Bitcoin mining volume, reflecting the enormous demand for such investment products in the market.
@Anoma Phase 1 focuses on 'ETH-first' rather than 'ETH-only': Starting from the Ethereum mainnet and major Layer 2s, applications only need to define intents (goals), and the network automatically handles complex cross-chain routing, with the final result seamlessly settled back to Ethereum. Simplifying cross-chain, focusing on intent.
No need to worry about bridging details or cumbersome steps; users only need to express 'What do I want,' and Anoma's intent network will automatically complete matching and settlement. Developers can build directly in the familiar EVM environment, integrating with the Phase 1 protocol adapter without needing to migrate to a new chain, lowering development barriers.
Open-source adapters, accelerating integration The official prototype of the EVM protocol adapter has been open-sourced for developers to test and integrate. This design greatly simplifies...
Bitcoin's market value surpasses Amazon for the first time; what signal does this release?
First, this news needs to be statedโBitcoin has truly beaten Amazon this time, surpassing it in market value. As of recently, Bitcoin's market value briefly broke through about $2.42 to $2.45 trillion, successfully jumping from 'the sixth largest global asset' to the world's fifth. Seeing this, my first reaction is: 'Wow, this is not just a price increase, but more like a ceremony for identity enhancement.' BTC has elevated from 'local asset' to a global asset of significant scale, and there are three levels of signals behind this worth pondering. 1. Institutional money is really coming in, and ETFs have become the entry point. This wave of increase is intense, and the key factor is that the inflow of spot Bitcoin ETFs has set a historical record, especially with traditional large institutions like BlackRock leading the way.

Regarding the future trend of Bitcoin, there are relatively more optimistic voices in the market. Some institutions expect Bitcoin to rise to $135,000 in the third quarter of this year, and to surge to $200,000 by the end of the year. However, some analysts warn that Bitcoin's price is highly volatile, and geopolitical crises, inflation, and other financial risks, as well as major political events, could all impact the market. Investors should pay attention to market dynamics and invest cautiously.
Be the smart person who eats the biggest peach, rather than the monkey who takes one bite and exchanges it for another. We publicly bottomed out ETH at 1580. Many people ask me why ETH has been rising so sharply these days, and as the KOL who knows ETH the best, why I haven't given any ETH trades recently. This is called making money in a big cycle, steadily doubling your investment. As for those brothers who are eager to ask me how to operate ETH contracts recently, have you thought of the scene in 'Journey to the West' where Sun Wukong eats the Peaches of Immortality, taking one bite and throwing another, and in the end, he can never eat the biggest one? Choose a target and hold it patiently until you achieve your expected returns, rather than trading BTC today because it is rising sharply and trading ETH tomorrow because it is rising sharply. I can tell you that good things will never come to you this way. ๐๐
Thank you for being with us all the way, letโs give everyone a ๐
A five-year-old established blockchain gaming community, my baby was not even born when it started, yesterday my baby just turned 5 years old. Looking back, the community has also been around for more than 5 years. The community has gone through countless years, with dozens of projects big and small participated. Although there have been losses and gains, we have always strived to move forward.
When community members make profits, they spread gold all over the community, and friends praise each other, saying that the big guy is awesome, and everyone grabs red envelopes until their hands are sore.
When community members face losses, they share pictures and self-deprecate in the community. Friends comfort each other warmly, saying itโs okay to let brothers suffer a bit.
Interesting stories from DM Community
In the world of martial arts, there is only fighting and killing, without human feelings. Here, brothers are allowed to suffer; here, brothers are not allowed to drive a Land Rover; here, you are allowed to be a model; here, you are not allowed to look for a model; here, you are allowed to come last; here, you are not allowed to take the top spot...
Years of friendship, years of camaraderie. Perhaps some have gained freedom, perhaps some have returned to screw bolts in the factory, but very often when new projects come out, everyone rushes out to say one thing: all in.
Years of shared honor and disgrace in DM Community
The purpose of the community is to play and profit in the field, but it must be said that only when we make money can we truly be happy, right? We don't engage in finding joy in suffering.
We will have a dedicated community task force to research new projects with me, find reasonable methods to earn money, and discover how to invest the least to gain the most. Perhaps we are not the most professional, but we are definitely the most dedicated.
Finally, we welcome like-minded friends to join DM Community #ETH่ตฐๅฟๅๆ
