While Bitcoin dropped below $112,000 and Ethereum briefly dipped under $3,400, whale and institutional activity tells an interesting story.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/1952393917946823091?s=61\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">According to Lookonchain\u2019s weekly report<\/a>, 16 public companies purchased a combined 31,478 BTC worth $3.61 billion. MicroStrategy alone added 21,021 BTC ($2.46B), reinforcing its long-term bullish outlook. On the Ethereum side, 12 new wallets acquired 225,099 ETH ($819M), contributing to a total of 808,347 ETH ($2.85B) accumulated since July 9. SharpLink, a major whale, now holds over 498,000 ETH worth $1.81 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ethereum accumulation continues to gain momentum. Whales and institutions are not slowing down.

A trader <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/1952565633180385532?s=61\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">bought $22.8K worth of TROLL<\/a> just 3.5 months ago. They\u2019ve already sold $16.2K worth, covering most of their initial investment. But clearly, this trader has diamond hands: they still hold $2.48 million worth of TROLL. That\u2019s a 109x return: just from buying early and holding.<\/p>\n<p>Conviction like that is rare in the memecoin world. But when it hits, it really hits.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a new contender is gaining steam.<\/p>\n<p>Inspired by the viral SPX6900 meme coin that surged 10,000% this year, TOKEN6900 has the same light and satirical approach. With its presale already passing $1.6 million raised, speculation is growing that this could be the next moonshot.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Why not? Memecoins are truly making history this cycle, with utility coins rallying behind. More and more traders seem intrigued by the concept of simple memes that promise nothing\u2014yet still print hard.<\/p>\n<p>With staking live during presale at 38% APY, holders can grow their position without selling early.<\/p>\n<p>With the presale still ongoing, T6900 may be the best crypto presale to buy now. A modest $60 million market cap could deliver 10x, while a SPX-style rally could offer even more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/visit\/token6900?transfer=1\" class=\"sc-button sc-button-green sc-button-medium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\"><span>Visit T6900 Here<\/span><\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-live-article\" id=\"article-267422\" data-timestamp=\"1754382356\" data-modified=\"1754382356\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-meta\">\n\t\t<span class=\"nnbtc-update-time-dot\"><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t<a class=\"nnbtc-update-time\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/live-crypto-news-august-5-which-crypto-to-buy-today-for-long-term-gains-btc-and-eth-accumulation-surges-despite-dex-slowdown\/#article-267422\" target=\"_self\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t2 hours\t\t\tago\t\t<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-title\">\n<h2>SEC Greenlights Stablecoins as Cash Equivalents in Interim Guidance<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-author\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Fatima99btc.jpg\" class=\"nnbtc-custom-avatar\" width=\"44\" height=\"44\" alt=\"Fatima\">\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div>\n\t\t\t\tBy  <span class=\"nnbtc-author-name\">Fatima<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-content\">\n<p>The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/wublockchain\/status\/1952542132193124568?s=61\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">temporary accounting guidance<\/a> allowing certain fully backed, USD-pegged stablecoins to be treated as cash equivalents on corporate balance sheets. This interim move offers clarity for businesses and institutions while the SEC continues broader rulemaking under its \u201cProject Crypto\u201d initiative.<\/p>\n<p>To qualify, stablecoins must be redeemable at par value, backed 1:1 with cash or short-term U.S. Treasury assets, and offer immediate liquidity. This excludes algorithmic and non-USD stablecoins, as well as any with risk-bearing structures.<\/p>\n<p>The decision is seen as a boost for institutional adoption, making it easier for companies to hold and report stablecoin assets in line with traditional cash holdings. It also aligns with emerging regulatory frameworks like the GENIUS Act, which requires transparency and reserves for stablecoin issuers.<\/p>\n<p>While temporary, this guidance marks a step toward greater crypto integration in finance, offering much-needed compliance clarity for firms using regulated stablecoins like USDC and USDT.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/live-crypto-news-august-5-which-crypto-to-buy-today-for-long-term-gains-btc-and-eth-accumulation-surges-despite-dex-slowdown\/\">[LIVE] Crypto News August 5 \u2013 Which Crypto to Buy Today for Long-Term Gains?
