Three Cryptocurrencies to Buy Despite Their Volatility 08/26/2025 | | Forget A.I. Forget Oil. Forget Gold. Our top analyst — who turned $50,000 into $5.3 million in three and a half years — just revealed his brain-dead simple "trading trick" that unlocks gains of 116%... 137%... and even 227%. Better still, it does it in weeks – NOT years. Get the full story here. Click Here... | | | Three cryptocurrencies to buy despite their volatility feature two ascending opportunities along with the best-known name that has trended down in the past week or so.
One of the cryptocurrencies that is gaining supporters is Ether, also known as Ethereum. Another rising cryptocurrency is Solana, while Bitcoin remains the most visible and popular entrant.
Cryptocurrencies have exhibited volatility with sharp movements both up and down. The Trump administration has ushered in policies to support Bitcoin.
With President Trump directing the cryptocurrency policy flotilla, both investors and traders have been enjoying a figurative gust of wind that led Bitcoin to hit a new high of $124,450 on Thursday, Aug. 14. But Bitcoin pulled back to close at $111,689.17 on Tuesday, Aug. 26.
Three Cryptocurrencies to Buy Despite Their Volatility: Trump's Crypto Pump
After President Donald Trump won election to his latest term in November 2024, the price of Bitcoin rose from roughly $70,000 to pass $124,000 on Aug. 14 but has been unable to prevent volatility. The rise never is steady with Bitcoin, nor Ethereum or Solana, so investing in them requires patience and a willingness to resist panic-selling if a downturn occurs.
"Everyone is a disciplined, long-term investor until the market goes down," former Presidential candidate Steve Forbes once told me during an interview.
President Trump's easing of cryptocurrency regulation has been accompanied by increasingly crypto-friendly voting in Congress, as well. The latest example is last month's passage of the GENIUS Act, signed into law by President Trump on July 15, setting up regulatory norms for the crypto space and solidifying a connection between crypto and the U.S. dollar with requirements for backing with U.S. treasury bills.
Three Cryptocurrencies to Buy Despite Their Volatility: Ethereum
Ether hit a low of under $1,500 in mid-April. Then, it began a strong run. It set new 52-week highs recently and neared its all-time high in 2021. During Ether's recent gains, it left Bitcoin far behind in percentage increase, despite Bitcoin's rally in the first half of August 2025.
Currently, Ether is in second place, but quite a distance behind the gains achieved by Bitcoin, wrote Retirement Watch investment newsletter leader Bob Carlson, a retired pension fund chairman. There are quite a few digital currencies with many created almost every day. Relatively few of the digital currencies last, Carlson cautioned.
A distinguishing feature of Ethereum and Bitcoin is that the Securities and Exchange Commission has approved exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that buy the currencies at spot prices, Carlson continued.
An ETF that buys Ethereum, iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA), gained 35.38% so far this year, 26.35% in the last month and 66.92% in the last year.

You read about them every day in the media… he posts what he's thinking and doing on social media many times a day. But what Trump did before leaving office last time could set millions of Americans up for virtually disaster-proof income for as long as they like… and I bet you've never heard about this.
He signed a 2,200 page legal document that cleverly safeguarded a low-risk income source… and now it's allowing any regular American with a trading account (or a broker) to collect rock-solid, consistent, government-guaranteed income from an obscure and little-known passive-income source.

A key reason for the surge in Ethereum seems clear to be the recent announcement of BitMine Immersion (BMNR), a digital currency mining firm, that it would become an Ethereum treasury company. BitMine is seeking to become for Ether what Strategy (MSTR, formerly MicroStrategy) has been as a self-proclaimed Treasury company for Bitcoin, Carlson told me.

"A digital currency treasury company is one that uses its cash and resources to buy as much of the digital currency as it can," Carlson wrote to his Retirement Watch investment newsletter subscribers. Strategy, for example, issues preferred stock specifically to use the proceeds to buy Bitcoin. It also uses leverage, such as futures contracts, to increase its exposure to Bitcoin."
The approach has worked well for Strategy and its shareholders, delivering an annualized return of 123.80% over the last three years. After BMNR announced that it intends to do with Ethereum what MSTR did with Bitcoin, BMNR stock rose over 1,300% from late June through early August.
There is a reasonable possibility that Ether is going to endure a significant correction unless other firms decide to become treasury companies in the cryptocurrency or BMNR receives significant additional cash, Carlson cautioned.

Three Cryptocurrencies to Buy Despite Their Volatility: Skousen's Strategies Include Solana
The Genius Act supported by President Trump is just one reason for the growing opportunities creates an investment opportunity, according to the TNT Trader advisory service led by Mark Skousen, PhD, and his son Tim Skousen. TNT Trader currently recommends Solana and Bitcoin.

The market has seen signs that Solana will quickly follow with big moves up 16% in one week earlier in August before dropping again, Skousen advised his subscribers. Solana has been volatile. I personally have seen messages on my iPhone showing Solana up 5-10%, then down by the same amount two or three days later.
Near the market's close on Aug. 16, Solana had jumped 5.31% to $197.25 in the prior eight hours. Cryptocurrency investors need to expect such volatility. | | Every screener finds the same obvious opportunities...
Because they all analyze the same historical metrics.
VantagePoint's approach is fundamentally different — the A.I. processes interconnected global market data to predict which instruments will outperform before traditional screening identifies them (and does so 1-3 days in advance).

This is a great time to own a well-diversified portfolio, according to the Retirement Watch investment newsletter, with U.S. stock indexes recently reaching all-time highs. Many international stocks lately are doing even better than U.S. stocks.
Gold probably will soon break out of the trading range it has been in since late April 2025 and resume its multi-year, record-breaking bull market, while Bitcoin and related assets have bounced back from their corrections earlier this year to set new highs, wrote Retirement Watch's Carlson. He now is recommending positions in Bitcoin funds, even for his Retirement Watch subscribers.
Several factors are behind the support for Bitcoin, Carlson counseled. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that hold Bitcoin became available just over a year ago are experiencing increased demand, especially from U.S. investors, he added.
The interest is propelled by favorable regulatory changes in the United States and reports that the Federal Reserve might reduce interest rates later this year, Carlson continued. In addition, do not be surprised if more companies adopt the approach of Strategy to turn into leveraged investors in Bitcoin, he added.
Three High-Income Cryptocurrency Investments to Purchase: Bitcoin
One of the ways to purchase cryptocurrency investments such as Bitcoin is through a fund. An example is ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO), the first U.S. Bitcoin-linked ETF to produce returns that correspond to the cryptocurrency's price. BITO also is the biggest Bitcoin-linked fund based on assets under management, according to ProShares.
The fund is a current recommendation in the Tactical Trends portfolio of the Investing Edge investment newsletter led by Jim Woods. He also heads Crypto & Commodities Trader, an advisory service that recommends both stocks and options.

BITO could appeal to income investors due to its hefty dividend yield that currently touches 50.76%. Investors who worry about potential losses and volatility from cryptocurrency investing may prefer BITO due to its dividend payouts, as well as its potential capital appreciation gains.

Three High-Income Cryptocurrency Investments to Purchase: Geopolitical Risk
Both investors and traders need to beware that geopolitical risk remains a threat. President Trump and Russia's President Vladimir Putin concluded talks Friday, Aug. 15, without finalizing a peace plan or ceasefire in Ukraine. At a joint news conference following their three-hour meeting at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson Anchorage, President Trump said "many points" were agreed upon but added that there were a few left unresolved.
President Trump had talked optimistically before his latest administration began in January 2025 that he could end Russia's invasion of Ukraine soon after taking office, but that goal proved unrealistic. In contrast, Russia has intensified its attacks, hitting civilian sites across Ukraine and gaining control of additional sovereign territory on its neighboring nation.
With the war in Ukraine and the conflict in the Middle East, as well as skirmishes elsewhere, investors need to take geopolitical risk seriously. President Trump recently spoke with President Zelensky of Ukraine and other European leaders, but they cannot secure peace without Putin agreeing. Until peace is achieved, investors and traders need to tread carefully and factor such matters into their decision making. | | Sincerely,
