While Bitcoin breaches a new peak of over $111,000, XRP is navigating a climate of uncertainty. Driven by the accumulation of tokens by large holders, Ripple's cryptocurrency is experiencing a bullish momentum. However, this dynamic is accompanied by tensions: the rapid increase in reserves on Binance and other exchanges fuels doubts. In an ultra-reactive market, where every indicator matters, this unstable configuration calls for a nuanced reading of the dynamics at play.

Crypto is sparkling! Ethereum, still in the shadow of Bitcoin, is on the rise. Does this resurrection hide a new windfall or just a flash in the pan?

Lines are moving in Europe, and not always where we expect them. While European economic policies get bogged down in the dogmas of the Central Bank, an unexpected yet assured voice is rising: that of Conor McGregor. On May 22, 2025, the UFC icon reiterated his candidacy for the Irish presidency with an unequivocal message: to become the first president to include bitcoin on Europe's balance sheet.

Solana promises to turn the banker into a seller of coffee shares. Cryptocurrency accessible by smartphone, money reserved for the rich? Soon to be a tale of the past.

In a market where volatility is constant, James Wynn stood out with an extraordinary maneuver: a long position of $1.25 billion on bitcoin with a 40x leverage via Hyperliquid. A controversial figure in speculative trading, Wynn seemed to be riding a bullish wave... until an announcement from Donald Trump about a massive tax against the EU. Within a few hours, the geopolitical shock reversed the trend, melting away $29 million in potential gains, a bold bet caught up by the reality of the markets.

€635.64 billion is the amount reached by the financial wealth of French households, an absolute record revealed by the Bank of France. This figure far exceeds the national public debt and surpasses the capitalization of the CAC 40. Behind this impressive accumulation lies a societal choice: that of massive savings, oriented towards security rather than yield. A French paradox, at a time when the economy calls for innovation and markets for measured risk-taking.
