Prediction Market

As Ethereum cheerfully crosses the $2,600 mark this week, a thrill runs through the crypto community. Behind this skyrocketing rise of 37% lies a rare technical signal: maintaining the price above the realized price of $1,900. An indicator that, combined with the Petra update, paints an unprecedented bullish scenario. But why does this symbolic threshold electrify the experts? A deep dive into the insides of a boiling market.

Bitcoin is still struggling to reach the symbolic target of $150,000, despite a recent rebound to $104,000 recorded on May 8th. Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy and a staunch advocate of Bitcoin, has clearly identified the culprits behind this slowdown: opportunistic investors, whom he labels as tourists or weak hands, who exit the market at the slightest sign of quick gains.

The bitcoin market has recently freed itself from its winter timidity. Fueled by a resurgence of optimism in financial markets, it has reached its highest level since January. Good news is piling up: an unexpected trade agreement, rising global indices, and a massive influx of digital capital. This combination of factors creates fertile ground for bitcoin.

It is rare for an NFT project to still create an authentic thrill in the crypto universe. Yet, Doodles has just made a splash. In just 24 hours, this colorful collection saw its sales soar by 97%, flirting with $1.1 million. This surge is no coincidence: on the horizon, a certain crypto DOOD is tantalizing investors.

Arizona makes a significant move in the emerging world of digital assets. In May 2025, the state makes headlines by announcing the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve (SBR). This bold decision demonstrates an unprecedented political will. It illustrates how dollars forgotten by citizens can be transformed into a forward-looking position. More than just a symbolic gesture, it represents a step toward the integration of bitcoin into the dominant economic landscape.

There are psychological thresholds in life, such as turning 30, weighing 100 kilograms, or for cryptocurrency ETH, reaching 1900 dollars. The first seems trivial, the second causes concern, and the last sends shivers through the markets. Yet, all of them provoke turmoil. While the crypto market appears to be dozing, Ethereum chose this precise moment to breach that barrier. A wake-up call? A jolt? Perhaps both. But one thing is certain: in a universe dominated by Bitcoin, Ethereum has decided to remind everyone that it is much more than just a mere number two.

Alex Mashinsky, the long-revered — then reviled — face of Celsius, is back in the spotlight, but this time not for his rhetoric on financial freedom. The former CEO appears as the accused, denouncing a U.S. justice system that he finds too harsh. While the Department of Justice is seeking a 20-year sentence, the 59-year-old cries out against the excess: for him, this punishment would amount to a "death sentence in prison."

The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) has recently integrated the Bitcoin public key into the scope of the GDPR, turning every transaction into a legal issue. While not formally banning cryptocurrency, this approach creates a difficult gray area to navigate.

As Bitcoin flirts with $94,500, one surprising statistic stands out: 88% of the supply is in profit. A statistic that should make holders smile... with one caveat. Those who bought between $95,000 and $100,000? They are not laughing. This segment, tiny yet symbolic, now concentrates the majority of the losses. But what does this market anomaly really indicate? More than just a simple numeric reading, it is an X-ray of investor psychology.

The so-called "meme" cryptos never promised the moon, but for a time, they managed to make us believe it. Today, Dogecoin and Shiba Inu are stumbling, out of breath from their own speculative madness. And while the jokes age, the charts are no longer laughing. The time has come to ask: is the market turning the page on these cryptos? Or is it just a simple dip in an increasingly difficult cycle to follow?

Institutional demand for bitcoin is skyrocketing. Last week, U.S. ETFs accumulated 18,644 BTC. In comparison, miners only extracted 3,150. An unprecedented gap is disrupting the traditional balance.

Bitcoin is a topic of debate. Nassim Nicholas Taleb maintains his frankness. He describes Bitcoin as a "technological tulip." His biting commentary leaves no one indifferent. Thus, let us dive into the heart of his attack to understand his grievances.

The depths of Ethereum are stirring once again. While the market seemed to be dozing off, powerful players are resurfacing, quietly but with a confidence that speaks volumes.

Raoul Pal's optimism for Sol and Sui cryptos is intriguing. Contrary to skeptics, the founder of Real Vision presents an unexpectedly positive long-term vision. To understand this "bet", let's first examine the technology, and then Pal's sharp analysis.

The face of the cryptocurrency market is evolving at a rapid pace. On one side, individuals clinging to every satoshi. On the other, institutions ready to commit colossal sums. However, the price of Bitcoin does not always follow the same trajectory for these two populations. In Dubai, during the Cointelegraph LONGITUDE panel, major players sounded the alarm. According to them, soon only the largest wallets will be able to afford a Bitcoin.

Worldcoin lands in the United States. The goal: to scan your irises to prove that you are human. Behind this project is Sam Altman, the head of OpenAI, betting on biometric technology to create a unique and secure digital identity.

And what if the dollar was no longer the only compass for stablecoins? Around the world, a tide is forming: governments, regulators, and companies want alternatives. Between monetary sovereignty and geopolitical ambitions, crypto is taking an unexpected turn.

The prospect of a bitcoin reaching $200,000 by the end of 2025 raises eyebrows. Standard Chartered asserts this trajectory. The scenario is based on various indicators.

Bitcoin once again takes center stage. Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise, takes boldness to its peak. He envisions a Bitcoin capable of competing not only with digital gold but also with the dollar and U.S. Treasury bonds. Consequently, he mentions a potential market of $50 trillion. So, can we really contemplate such a transformation?

As Bitcoin hovers around $94,000, a dissonance is emerging. Institutions, on the other hand, seem to scream the opposite: $3 billion injected in just one week via Bitcoin ETFs, despite an estimated discount of 40%. Such a striking gap raises questions. Why this massive influx when the price seems to be down? Behind the numbers, a silent battle is taking place between apparent discount and strategic conviction.

One year after its fourth halving, Bitcoin is showing a perplexing trajectory. Although the crypto has climbed since April 2024 — nearing $109,000 in January — its progress remains pale compared to previous cycles. A paradox? Despite absolute records, the annual growth rate is capped at 49%, far from the quadruple digits of the past. How can this historic slowdown be explained when ETFs and the planned coin shortage were supposed to propel the market?

The Ekaterina Djanova case resembles a financial thriller where crypto, organized crime, and judicial loopholes intertwine. While this 38-year-old Frenchwoman, nicknamed 'the shadow banker,' has been languishing in prison for two years, a legal twist could set her free.

A scenario reminiscent of the early days of a bullish cycle, where strategy and psychology collide.
