In another significant move, BlackRock has revealed a $262.6 million investment in Ethereum ($ETH).

The macroeconomic environment is also contributing to positive sentiment in the crypto market. Data from CME FedWatch suggests that the likelihood of the U.S. Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in September has climbed to 87%.
