Ethereum and XRP Rebound, Bitcoin Steady as Crypto Volumes Shrink - August 4, 2025, 9:15 AM IST

Monday morning, August 4, 2025, brings a distinct split to the major crypto assets as trading volumes plunge and select tokens stage notable rebounds:

• Bitcoin (BTC) is steady at $115,000, gaining 0.85% in the last 24 hours as volume falls sharply by 29.3% to just $246.9M. The funding rate remains flat at 0%, consistent with low directional bets among futures traders in quieter markets.
• Ethereum (ETH) bounces back, climbing 3.24% to $3,600 after last week’s correction. Spot interest drives price action, despite a 48% drop in volume to $215.3M and a subdued funding rate of 0.03%, showing that buyers prefer steady accumulation at lower levels.
• XRP posts a strong rebound, up 5.84% to $3.002 on Monday morning. Volume shrinks 39.9% to $210.1M, but funding of 0.33% points to moderate long bias as traders look for fresh breakout attempts after recent dips.
• Solana (SOL) also ekes out a 1.46% gain, trading at $163.25 in the lowest volume among majors ($72.64M, down 23%). The funding rate ticks up to 0.61%, signaling gradual leveraged interest creeping back in.

Overall, today’s session is marked by dramatically lower volumes across all the top coins, but renewed upside in Ethereum and XRP suggests that selective bargain hunting is underway. Bitcoin’s range-bound action and steady derivatives landscape point to widespread caution ahead of potential macro or regulatory news later in the week.
