July 11 - According to data from Lighthouse Pro, as of 8:34 PM on July 11, the daily box office revenue of the domestic film market exceeded 300 million yuan, marking the first time since February 26 this year that the daily box office revenue has exceeded 300 million yuan.July 11th - According to the official WeChat account of Hangzhou Metro, due to the impact of Typhoon Bavi (No. 9), Hangzhou City has activated a Level I typhoon emergency response. Starting at 6:00 AM on July 12th, the entire metro network will be suspended, with the resumption time to be announced separately.On July 11, Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Eni, the Italian state-owned holding group, stated that if the Middle East conflict continues, the global oil market will break through the current range of approximately $80 to $100 per barrel by the first quarter of 2027 at the latest, pushing up inflation and reducing energy demand. In an interview published Saturday in Il Sole 24 Ore, Descalzi said that the release of strategic reserves has so far helped keep crude oil prices roughly within this range, but this strategy is facing increasing risks because global reserves are finite. “The long-term solution is to enhance energy security through the diversification of supply sources and routes,” he said. Descalzi noted that global oil inventories have fallen by an average of 3.8 million barrels per day due to disruptions related to the war with Iran that began at the end of February, accelerating to an average of 4.6 million barrels per day in May. He stated that countries should focus on producers in North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, while reducing reliance on controlled maritime routes.July 11th - Industry insiders stated that historically, during periods of high demand in the memory chip industry, manufacturers tend to simultaneously expand production capacity, leading to a concentrated release of new capacity, a price crash, and industry-wide losses. Subsequently, manufacturers collectively reduce capital expenditures, and when demand recovers, another boom occurs – this cycle constitutes the industrys unique cyclical pattern. Since reaching its peak in late June, US memory chip stocks have experienced a collective correction due to concerns about overcapacity, triggered by news such as Metas sale of computing power. Data shows that industry leaders such as SanDisk, Micron Technology, Seagate Technology, and Western Digital have all seen their stock prices fall by more than 20% in the past few weeks. Analysts point out that the underlying logic supporting current demand for memory chips is facing a reassessment, with the core variable being whether the technological gap between various AI large-scale models will continue to narrow. Analysts also pointed out that the memory chip industry is undergoing a profound change in its business model: in the past, memory was more like a commodity, with prices fluctuating with the market, and contracts were mostly on a quarterly or annual basis; now, cloud vendors and AI data centers are increasingly signing long-term supply agreements with original equipment manufacturers for three to five years, with price ranges, minimum purchase quantities, and customer deposits, in order to ensure critical supply.July 11 - Due to the impact of Typhoon Bavi, the ninth typhoon of this year, the Hangzhou Bay Bridge will be closed in both directions starting at 19:30 today, prohibiting all vehicles from passing through.

5 Things to Know in Crypto Today – XRP Surges on SEC v Ripple Optimism

Cryptocurrency Prices Hold Following the US economy's indicator-driven slump

With a $4.3 billion gain on Sunday, the cryptocurrency market snapped a four-day losing trend to close the day at $905.6 billion. Notably, despite four straight days in the red, the cryptocurrency market also broke a three-week losing skid. The value of the cryptocurrency market rose by $20.9 billion.


With a gain of 18.7%, XRP was among the top performers over the week. Price support came from hope for a successful conclusion in the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit.


But US economic data and Fed monetary policy are putting investors' appetite for risky assets to the test. Bets on 75 basis point Fed rate increases in November and December were driven by ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI figures and Friday's US employment report.


The likelihood of a 75 basis point Fed rate increase in November was 78.1% this morning, up from 56.5% on September 30. Notably, the likelihood of a 75-basis point increase in December has increased to 22.6% from 0% on September 30.


The IMF/World Bank Meetings will generate a lot of market attention later today. The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have issued warnings about the effects of central banks raising interest rates at the same time.

XRP Receives Support Due to Newfound Hope in the SEC v. Ripple Case

XRP increased by 2.87% on Sunday, closing the week up 18.7% at $0.5320. However, the overall crypto market value only saw a slight 2.36% growth. Investor hope for a successful resolution of the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit has lessened the impact of Fed concern on XRP price movement.


A crucial court decision has encouraged rumors that Ripple will win or, in the worst event, that the SEC would agree to a settlement. Expectations of a Ripple win were raised when the Court earlier this month overturned the SEC's argument to the Court's denial of the SEC's effort to shield the papers connected to the William Hinman speech under the attorney-client privilege.


Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are not securities, according to William Hinman, Division of Corporation Finance, in a well-known 2018 lecture.


A Ripple response to an SEC objection to two amicus brief petitions fueled more XRP price support. The filings provide a new perspective on XRP that could not support the designation of XRP as a security. In a letter to the court, the defendants were forthright, concluding that the SEC had no business initiating this case in the first place if it couldn't assess the validity of such accusations.


In the end, it could depend on the Hinman documents. The general assumption is that the SEC will ultimately have to provide up the papers, despite the fact that it may appeal the Court's ruling. The consensus is that the SEC will try to reach a settlement at that point rather than allow the documents to be made available to the public.
