There is a veritable feast of stories for you today, from BlackRock flipping Grayscale on BTC holdings, to the SEC being ordered to pay $1.8M in fees from the Debt Box case dismissal. Then I'll take a look at the current state of play of memecoins, which, like them or loathe them, is dominant. The top memecoins are surging up the crypto charts by v…

That was a tumultuous 24 hours in crypto! We saw a sizeable rally across the board yesterday, with Ethereum rising as much as 3.5% on the day and narrowly missing the $4,000 milestone. But then, as quickly as it had risen, Bitcoin took a 2% haircut as Mt. Gox wallets moved a staggering $9.6B of Bitcoin to an unknown wallet! And while we're tracing …

In some ways, that was a quiet, unassuming weekend; Bitcoin and Ethereum were both relatively stable, price-wise, and there weren't a great deal of interesting stories unfolding. But, outside of those two, it has been one of the strangest weekends on record. Donald Trump has doubled down on endearing himself to crypto voters, and then doubled down …

There we have it: from near-certain denial just a week ago, the U.S. SEC has officially approved the 19b-4 filings for the spot Ether ETFs, giving the green light for them to begin trading. This unexpected news impacts crypto not just because Ether is confirmed to not be a security, with some heavy inflows expected, but also because many other toke…

The rumors that the U.S. SEC may be doing a 180 on the expected denial of spot Ether ETF applications have grown credible over the past 24 hours. At least five ETF applicants have amended their filings (with several making the same change), and the SEC has contacted exchanges looking to list the ETFs. This has spurred gains of over 20% for Ethereum…

What a 24 hours it’s been! Out of nowhere, the market started pumping, and Bitcoin rocketed north of $70,000. Ethereum’s pump made those gains look tame, and a good portion of the reason is centered on the U.S. SEC’s looming decision on whether to approve spot Ether ETFs in the United States. In today’s episode, we discuss what has changed, how cra…

Bitcoin enjoyed a strong weekly close, and most analysts are feeling positive about the week ahead — and for good reason, with several bullish metrics on the charts. The bullish signs are not confined to Bitcoin either, with Solana having an unusual indicator after the success of the Phantom Wallet. However, despite the green charts, the conviction…

Bitcoin has enjoyed a positive 24 hours, with a huge spike in volume for U.S.-based spot Bitcoin ETFs not seen since the cryptocurrency’s all-time high in March. However, BTC is consolidating, and analysts explain why the longer it goes on, the more fuel the rocket has when Bitcoin breaks out! Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate voted to squash the controve…

The analysts called it: we got the U.S. Consumer Price Index volatility. Bitcoin’s price spiked, but many of the same analysts remain cautious about this price rise due to one overarching metric. Elsewhere, Mastercard launches a startup program for blockchain companies, and we speak to the CEO of one of the five companies selected. Chinese police b…

Somehow, everybody missed something important in BlackRock’s spot Ether ETF filing that could indicate what the SEC is thinking ahead of its upcoming decision on whether to approve the products or not. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin hash rate drops as miners switch off older rigs, El Salvador uses a volcano for mining BTC, and the surge in new tokens being…

The end of the crab-like movement of Bitcoin’s price might be on our doorstep, with analysts predicting the U.S. Consumer Price Index and Producer Price Index coming May 14 and 15 could have a dramatic impact. While most traders are quietly bullish based on the charts, anything unexpected in the U.S. macro data releases or said by Federal Reserve C…

It was another quiet weekend for Bitcoin, but those analysts in the know say it’s a display of strength, with BTC is establishing itself firmly above $60,000. So, what’s next and what do we need to be on the lookout for this week? Elsewhere, as we approach the U.S. SEC’s decision on whether to approve a spot Ether ETF, there is some movement that h…

Bitcoin is following the same patterns it has lately, so analysts are reporting the same things. With that, let’s turn our attention to all things altcoins. Analysts suggest that altcoins will hit their local bottom in the early summer, which could lay the foundations for altseason, but a few things need to happen first. In other news, Ethereum co-…

It’s a mixed bag of good and bad in crypto today. On one hand, Bitcoin’s price has hit a new record high 200-day moving average, which acts as a strong indicator for the future, and Grayscale sees yet more inflows to its GBTC ETF. On the other hand, the SEC has handed Robinhood a Wells notice over its crypto business, and Bitcoin mining revenue has…

There is a hidden theme to this episode: sometimes, a lack of change can indicate a major change to come. Bitcoin’s price spent the weekend mainly around the same level, but analysts point to a “strong bullish setup” as the consolidation period extends. Yuga Labs, the creator of the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, has begun restructuring to overcome sta…

This is another one of those days where Bitcoin price stagnation is not remotely indicative of how interesting the past 24 hours have been! On the Bitcoin front, Fidelity Digital Assets no longer considers it “cheap.” Still, we’re reminded that BTC’s major price gains are typically at the tail-end of a bull cycle, and we’re somewhere near the start…

The price of Bitcoin may not have moved much in the past 24 hours, but many leveraged positions were liquidated as some traders warn that worse is yet to come.

For the third time, Bitcoin bangs its head and drops below $70,000, raising questions about what happens next.

This weekend was “not typical,” according to one analyst, as they, and many others, weigh in on what it might mean. Some are looking at the unlikeliness of a major correction, while others are using Bollinger Band signals to suggest that if we follow past trends, we could see a price tag north of $140,000 by July. Surely not, right? Elsewhere, Coin…
