From 5% allocation to historical high: Crypto assets are moving towards mainstream
The first news, from a survey by UBS, Reuters reported that some overseas Chinese family offices plan to increase the weight of cryptocurrency assets to 5% of their investment portfolios. A few years ago, cryptocurrency was just a “small trial run” in their eyes, but now it is seen as an “essential part of investment portfolios”. More importantly, they are still exploring various tools to optimize returns, which means that even the capital that values stability and inheritance the most is redefining the position of digital assets.
The second news is that Ethereum has reached a historic high, hitting around $4880 during trading and closing at around $4845. The driving force behind it is the speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell at the Jackson Hole Conference. He acknowledges that inflation risks cannot be ignored, but at the same time, he stated that he will not rashly tighten policies based solely on employment exceeding potential levels. If the labor market does pose a risk to price stability, the Federal Reserve may take preemptive action. The overall tone is interpreted by the market as dovish: a rate cut in September is almost certain, the US dollar weakens, US bond yields decline, and risk assets generally strengthen.
The breakthrough of Ethereum is a direct reflection of the rise in liquidity expectations and risk appetite.
One end is the allocation of traditional wealth, and the other end is the synchronous response of market prices. The former indicates a shift in cognition on the capital side, while the latter reflects the fermentation of emotions on the market side.
T
hese two pieces of news, on the surface, one is an adjustment in the allocation of family wealth, and the other is a temporary breakthrough in market prices. Put together, they convey the same signal: encrypted assets are completing their transition from the edge to the mainstream, gradually moving from speculation to consensus.
This is not the end, but the beginning of a new stage.

VivoPower will purchase Ripple shares worth $100 million
VivoPower International PLC announced today that it will acquire a stake in Ripple Labs as part of its XRP-focused digital asset money management strategy. Following two months of due diligence, VivoPower has plans to purchase $100 million worth of privately held shares in Ripple. This includes a definitive agreement directly with Ripple’s existing shareholders and is subject to final approval by Ripple’s executive management. In addition to these transactions, VivoPower will continue to acquire and hold XRP tokens directly. Ripple minted a fixed number of 100 billion XRP tokens at its inception, and the network is currently in a state of mild deflation given the destruction of approximately 14 million XRP tokens to date.Ripple continues to hold 41 billion XRP tokens, primarily in escrow. In addition, Ripple owns a number of operating businesses, including its stablecoin RLUSD, digital asset prime brokers HiddenRoad, MetaCo, and StandardCustodyandTrustCompany, as well as the recently acquired stablecoin payment platform company Rail. On a weighted average basis, this strategy is designed to make the cost per share of the XRP token is acquired at a cost well below the market price of XRP. For each $10 million of Ripple tokens acquired, VivoPower shareholders are expected to receive $5.15 per share of accretion (this accretion is based on factors such as VVPR, the current market price of XRP, and the weighted average acquisition price of Ripple, all of which are subject to volatility and change).
