Musk officially announced the establishment of the "American Party", targeting key seats in the 2026 midterm elections.

According to CCTV News, on July 5 local time, American entrepreneur Elon Musk posted on the social media platform X that the "American Party" was established that day to give freedom back to the people.

This development comes at a time when Musk and Trump have a fierce disagreement over the "Big Beautiful Bill". On June 30, Musk fiercely criticized the bill and said that if the bill passes, the "American Party" will be established the next day. The bill was signed into law by Trump on July 4.

A few hours before the bill was signed, Musk launched an online vote to ask whether the "American Party" should be established. About 1.249 million netizens participated in the vote, and 65.4% expressed support. Based on this result, Musk officially announced the establishment of the new party on July 5.

This statement directly challenges Trump's authority within the Republican Party and also marks the complete breakdown of the political alliance between the two.

Musk also hinted to netizens that the "American Party" will participate in the 2026 mid-term elections, which leaves a time window for it to prepare funds, organizational structure and candidate screening.

According to FEC rules, new political parties do not need to formally register with the FEC unless their fundraising or expenditures exceed certain thresholds. Analysts point out that with Musk's financial resources, funding will not be a constraint.

Some netizens speculated that the political platform of the "American Party" may include reducing debt spending, promoting the development of AI technology, and comprehensively relaxing regulations. Musk responded: "That's right!"

Plan to use a few key seats to influence congressional decisions

Wall Street Journal previously mentioned that on the 4th, when Musk initiated a netizen vote, he revealed that the "American Party" will initially focus on 2-3 Senate seats and 8-10 House of Representatives districts, trying to become a decisive force in Congress through these key seats.

The strategy is very different from traditional party attempts to win a majority of seats. Musk is targeting the "critical minority" in Congress to influence policy by playing a decisive role in key votes.

Musk pointed out that with the current distribution of seats in Congress extremely close, this precise strategy is enough to influence major legislation and ensure that "the will of the people is truly represented."

The financial dispute with Trump: the trigger for Musk's turn

The background of Musk's announcement of the establishment of a new political party is his fierce conflict with Trump over fiscal policy.

Musk publicly criticized the $3.3 trillion "Big Beautiful Bill" signed by Trump recently, saying the bill would exacerbate the US debt crisis and threatening to fund the primary election opponents of any member of Congress who supports the bill.

Previously, Musk had pushed for $190 billion in government spending cuts through the DOGE sector, but according to analysis by a third-party nonprofit organization, his actions may also result in a loss of $135 billion for taxpayers.

Trump, in turn, publicly warned Musk that opposing his agenda would come at a personal cost.

He posted on his own social platform Truth Social, suggesting that Musk might close the company and return to South Africa without government subsidies, and even mentioned that "Doge might be used again on Musk" to fight back. Trump also told the media that DOGE might be "a monster that must go back to devour Musk."

The re-enactment of the "Trump-Maldives" drama highlights the drastic change in their relationship from cooperation to confrontation, and also provided a direct fuse for the establishment of the "American Party".

July Altcoin Outlook: Hyperliquid Eyes $100, Solana Rides ETF Wave, and Stablecoins Heat Up

July Altcoin Outlook: Hyperliquid Eyes $100, Solana Rides ETF Wave, and Stablecoins Heat Up

Key Takeaways : Hyperliquid surged 250% in three months and could hit $80 by Q3, analysts say. Solana’s staked ETF has been approved in the U.S., boosting ecosystem optimism. Raydium and Orca remain strong short-term plays as spot ETF approval odds reach 95% in 2025. Raydium ranked fifth among Solana DeFi projects in June with $6.17M revenue, while Pump.Fun stays the top earner despite falling numbers. Ethena flagged as a short-term watch due to regulatory shifts and its growing USDe stablecoin. The first month of summer has passed, with Bitcoin (BTC) holding firm at the top while the rest of the market stays quiet, waiting for a real altseason to arrive. In this monthly report, we look at the altcoins that analysts say could show the most potential in July. Table of Contents In This Article Hyperliquid Eyes $100 – Too Ambitious or Within Reach? Solana’s ETF Wave – Which Projects Could Surf It? Stablecoin Summer – Set to Sizzle or Stay Cool? Conclusion In This Article Hyperliquid Eyes $100 – Too Ambitious or Within Reach? Solana’s ETF Wave – Which Projects Could Surf It? Stablecoin Summer – Set to Sizzle or Stay Cool? Show Full Guide Conclusion Hyperliquid Eyes $100 – Too Ambitious or Within Reach? Hyperliquid (HYPE) has become one of the most talked-about new crypto projects. Its price has jumped nearly 250% over the past three months, while Bitcoin and many altcoins remain in a holding pattern. On June 16, HYPE hit its all-time high of $45.57. Eneko Knörr , CEO and co-founder of Stabolut , told Cryptonews that the altcoin may keep climbing: Hyperliquid leads with gasless perpetual trading and HyperBFT consensus. Price could reach $80 by Q3 2025. In 2025, crypto projects with real value and utility often struggle to grow, while meme coins continue to lead the market. Hyperliquid hasn’t broken this pattern entirely, but shows that non-meme projects can also rally. Its gasless perpetual trading platform has secured a strong niche . Daniil Kozin , Head of Business Development at EASY MM and CBDO , shared his view with Cryptonews : It’s predominantly organic growth, and the numbers support this. They’ve become the undisputed leader in decentralized perpetuals in record time. Solana’s ETF Wave – Which Projects Could Surf It? Eneko Knörr also noted that Solana’s (SOL) ecosystem could become more attractive soon, thanks to the first Solana staked exchange-traded fund (ETF) registered in the U.S.: Riding the ETF wave and scalability gains, key Solana tokens like RAY and ORCA remain strong short-term plays. Raydium (RAY) and Orca (ORCA) are decentralized exchanges (DEXs) on Solana with their own tokens listed across platforms. Raydium remains one of the most popular projects, especially after launching its meme coin launchpad, LaunchLab. In June, Raydium ranked fifth among Solana’s top 15 DeFi projects by revenue, earning $6.17 million. Pump.Fun continues to lead in revenue, although a recent Cryptonews study showed its numbers have dropped significantly from peak levels. Meme coins and their “infrastructure” remain some of the most profitable segments on Solana. For example, Axiom ranked second by revenue in June. It’s a wallet and platform mainly used for meme coin trading. However, with the Solana staked ETF, this picture could change. Moreover, a spot Solana ETF approval is expected this year, potentially bringing even more liquidity and institutional interest. This could help shift Solana’s reputation away from being just a meme coin blockchain and attract a new class of investors. Knörr added: Ecosystem projects drive adoption, while ETF approval odds for SOL sit at 95% in 2025. Potentially unlocking $1B+ inflows. Stablecoin Summer – Set to Sizzle or Stay Cool? Stablecoins remain one of crypto’s most promising markets . They serve as a bridge between traditional finance and crypto while also adding liquidity to DeFi. In 2024, they even surpassed Visa in transaction count. Knörr highlighted Ethena (ENA) as a short-term project to watch amid regulatory shifts. Ethena issues its own stablecoin, USDe (USDE), along with its ENA token. USDE launched in April 2024 and is already among the top five stablecoins by market cap. While it’s still far behind giants like Tether (USDT) and USDC, no project can compete with their scale for now. Ethena, however, is part of Ethereum’s (ETH) ecosystem and offers its own protocol and yield programs. Frank Combay , COO of Next Generation , told Cryptonews : More and more companies are integrating digital payment solutions into their systems, drawn by the key advantages of digital asset transactions: lowest transaction costs, near-instant processing speeds, and transparency. As a result, a growing number of market participants are engaging with blockchain projects to enhance their payment infrastructure and leverage these benefits. Conclusion July could bring strong momentum for Hyperliquid and select Solana projects, while stablecoins continue to cement their role as crypto’s backbone. But as always, liquidity flows and regulatory headlines will shape where altcoins go next.
