Ethereum (ETH) led the charge with a staggering 51% monthly gain, fueled by a 127% surge in corporate treasury holdings and a record 19-day streak of net inflows into spot ETH ETFs.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Bitcoin\u2019s dominance slid to 60.6%, its lowest level since January, as capital rotated aggressively into ETH, Ripple (XRP), and even meme coins like Dogecoin (DOGE). Binance researchers said the development came amid a\u00a0 rare convergence of regulatory tailwinds, including the passage of the GENIUS Act for stablecoins, and a macroeconomic landscape that suddenly favored risk assets.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The corporate ETH gold rush and altcoin takeover<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While spot ETH ETFs captured headlines with their record 19-day inflow streak, a quieter but equally significant trend emerged: corporations are accumulating Ethereum at an unprecedented pace.<\/p>\n<p>According to Binance Research, 24 new companies added ETH to their balance sheets in July, bringing total corporate holdings to 2.7 million ETH, a 127% monthly surge. Notably, firms like Bitmine and Sharplink now hold 625,000 and 438,200 ETH respectively, eclipsing even the Ethereum Foundation\u2019s reserves.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t passive speculation; companies are positioning around ETH\u2019s staking yields and its deflationary design. Since the Merge, over 1.6 million ETH has been burned, and during periods of high network activity, issuance has consistently turned negative, making Ethereum one of the few yield-bearing, deflationary assets in digital markets.<\/p>\n<p>The altcoin rally extended far beyond Ethereum. XRP briefly notched new yearly highs before profit-taking set in, while SUI\u2019s 34.6% surge coincided with its DeFi ecosystem hitting $2.2B in TVL, a milestone that attracted corporate treasury plans. Even meme coins joined the party, with DOGE rallying 30% after a treasury firm disclosed allocations.<\/p>\n<p>This broad-based altcoin strength reflects more than speculative fervor. It signals a growing belief that regulatory clarity and Ethereum\u2019s staking economy have fundamentally altered the risk-reward calculus.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, an unexpected corner of crypto mirrored Ethereum\u2019s early growth: tokenized stocks. Excluding niche offerings like Exodus shares, the market cap for blue-chip tokenized equities exploded 220% to $53.6 million in July.<\/p>\n<p>According to Binance researchers, on-chain addresses interacting with these assets ballooned from 1,600 to 90,000, a DeFi Summer-esque surge in participation. While still niche compared to traditional equities, the activity suggests a growing appetite for hybrid finance models, especially as projects like xStakes leverage Solana\u2019s speed for European markets.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin\u2019s dominance crumbled to 60% as altcoins, supercharged by Ethereum\u2019s explosive rally, seized the spotlight.
