Top 10 Cryptos for July 2025 - Flight to Safety: Bitcoin Holds, Alts Fold
Edition 143 - The Elite Cryptocurrency Investment Strategy Newsletter
Hi Everyone,
June kicked off with a wave of volatility as geopolitical tensions flared in the Middle East. Renewed hostilities—including U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities—rattled global markets and sparked a knee-jerk sell-off across risk assets, including crypto. For a moment, it looked like we were headed into full risk-off mode.
As the dust settled, Bitcoin showed impressive resilience, bouncing back almost immediately and reinforcing its narrative as a digital safe haven in times of crisis.
The same couldn’t be said for most altcoins, which saw deeper drawdowns as capital rotated into BTC. Bitcoin dominance surged past 65%, marking a clear flight to relative safety. The market backdrop wasn’t just shaped by geopolitics—hawkish rhetoric from central banks and mixed macro data also kept traders on edge, adding to the chop.
In an environment like this, we’re focused on disciplined risk management: keep stop-losses tight, use laddered bids to scale in gradually, and avoid overcommitting on any single dip.
Let’s dive in!
IN - AAVE, PAXG, VIRTUAL, HYPE
We're rotating into these names based on a mix of relative strength, solid technicals, and sticky narratives that are holding up in the current macro environment. Aave continues to show leadership in DeFi as on-chain activity picks up again, while HYPE and VIRTUAL are benefiting from growing interest in trading infrastructure and emerging protocols. PAXG stands out as a digital gold proxy—it's seeing increased investor attention as geopolitical risks rise and the market looks for safety plays. These setups offer a stronger foundation in a choppy market where selectivity matters.
OUT - STX, DEEP, POPCAT, BEAM
These names had promising momentum heading into spring, but the rallies didn’t hold. Most have broken down technically, with key support levels lost and lower highs setting in. On the narrative side, the hype that initially fueled these moves has cooled off considerably, and we’re no longer seeing the kind of traction that justifies staying in. In this kind of market, capital preservation matters—so we’re cutting exposure here to manage risk and rotate into cleaner, more resilient setups showing relative strength.
Our current portfolio was chosen for its technical outlook, narrative capture and market sentiment.
