Bitcoin Holds $119K, Ethereum Steady at $3.9K as Solana and XRP Slide - July 29, 2025, 2:30 PM IST

As of mid-afternoon on July 29, 2025, crypto markets display stability in the majors alongside moderate declines in key altcoins.

Bitcoin (BTC) continues to consolidate at $119,000 — unchanged in 24 hours — as 24H trading volume remains robust at $904M (+55%), reflecting persistent market engagement and ongoing rotation after recent volatility. Funding rates are flat at 0%, signaling a neutral leverage posture in the futures market.

Ethereum (ETH) trades slightly lower at $3,900 (down 0.25%), with volume of $607M (+17.9%), indicating measured profit-taking after Monday’s breakout. Its low funding rate (0.03%) suggests little speculative excess and balanced market sentiment, as ETH finds support at higher levels.

XRP continues to ease, down 2.55% to $3.17, despite a healthy uptick in trading volume to $332M (+31%). Funding remains at 0.32%, which signals no major reversal in positioning but highlights cautious optimism amid ongoing regulatory narratives.

Solana (SOL) posts a moderate loss, down 3.81% to $185.07, also on higher volumes ($194M, up 27.6%). With a funding rate of 0.54%, leveraged positions persist, but recent selling outweighs new longs, suggesting continued near-term consolidation.

Market focus this session remains on volume-driven price action, stable Bitcoin flows, and rotation within altcoins. Traders remain alert for fresh catalysts, while volume patterns and funding rates point to a balanced, watchful atmosphere across top digital assets.
