May 2025. Bitcoin is navigating beyond $103,000, but this seemingly dizzying figure may just be a warm-up. Behind the scenes, a structural imbalance is taking hold: supply is melting away like snow in the sun, while institutional demand is skyrocketing. Some already speak of a point of no return. Others, like Bitwise or Strategy, are betting on an explosion in prices — up to $200,000 before the end of next year. Myth or inevitable mechanism? What is certain is that the race is on, and the stakes are colossal.

Broken families, threatened lives: the surge of targeted attacks on crypto players in France is disrupting a rapidly growing sector. The Minister of the Interior is deploying urgent measures to ensure their safety and break this climate of fear that threatens the entire industry.

While bitcoin remains above $100,000, a targeted accumulation phase emerges quietly. Far from the tumult of derivatives, it is the spot flows and on-chain data that shape the market's new tempo. Behind this recovery, strategic investors are strengthening their positions, operating within a precise price range. A discreet yet structuring dynamic that could well redefine the foundations of the next bullish cycle.

Could this strategic alliance be the catalyst that finally propels the TRX price beyond the critical resistance of $0.30?

Long limited to its role as a store of value, Bitcoin is making a decisive breakthrough into DeFi. With the launch of the Peg-BTC (YBTC) token on the Sui network, Bitlayer introduces a "trustless" BitVM bridge that eliminates centralized intermediaries. This initiative marks a notable evolution. BTC becomes a fully usable asset within decentralized protocols, previously dominated by native tokens. A new chapter opens, that of an interoperable, mobile Bitcoin now active in programmable finance.

At the Toronto Consensus 2025, Ethereum broke the silence. In the face of criticism regarding its governance, technical roadmap, and talent drain, Paul Brody (EY) and Josh Stark (Ethereum Foundation) defended a bold vision: that of a complex, but fundamentally robust network. As the price of ETH stagnates and competition intensifies, Ethereum's leaders are betting on the long game and reminding that markets will eventually catch up with technology, not the other way around.

The legal battle between Ripple and the SEC has taken a new turn. While an amicable settlement seemed within reach, the federal court has sharply rejected the joint attempt from both sides. This setback reignites uncertainty around a clash that has become central to the regulatory future of cryptocurrencies in the United States and reaffirms the complexity of reaching a clear outcome in a case closely monitored by the entire industry.

Dogecoin is showing strong signs of a potential rally. With rising whale activity, breakout from key technical patterns, and growing investor interest, analysts are setting their sights on $0.40 and beyond as momentum builds.

What will be the consequences for this giant that claims over 105 million users?

In a crypto market driven by spectacular announcements, some signals go unnoticed while revealing deep dynamics. This is the case with discreet, yet massive movements around XRP on Binance. Unusually high volumes circulate in strategic silence, capturing the attention of analysts. Behind this silent accumulation could be a significant buying pressure, often heralding a trend reversal. Away from the spotlight, XRP seems to be gearing up for a phase.

While Ethereum surged by 43.6% in a week, reaching $2,600, the prospect of a return to $5,000 is back in discussions. This threshold, long considered out of reach, is once again appearing in analysts' scenarios. For some, this surge goes beyond a mere speculative bounce but could mark the starting point of a deeper bullish phase, driven by strong technical fundamentals and a rapidly changing adoption.

As the crypto landscape evolves at a breakneck pace, Ethereum is launching a strategic offensive to consolidate its position as a leader. The "Trillion Dollar Security Initiative," unveiled on May 14, goes beyond merely fixing technical flaws.

A bold move that highlights why Ethereum remains the essential backbone of decentralized finance (DeFi).

When crypto plays leapfrog with the quantum computer, BlackRock warns about Bitcoin, while future hackers are already rubbing their hands together.

A crooked smile, an evasive response. During a recent episode of The Block's Crypto Beat podcast, Dan Finlay, co-founder of MetaMask, reignited speculation about a hypothetical native token for the Ethereum wallet. "Maybe," he dropped, implying a long-simmering possibility behind the scenes. While the idea of a home crypto has excited the community since 2021, Finlay's statements reveal as much enthusiasm as caution. Amid gradual decentralization, shifting regulations, and fears of fraud, MetaMask is navigating a landscape where every step counts.

The recent surge in XRP is not just a simple technical rebound. In just a few days, prices, volumes, and open interest have soared, indicating a structural shift in the market. Far from an isolated bounce, this momentum reveals the joint activation of speculative and institutional players around the asset. As signals converge, the Ripple ecosystem seems to be entering a new strategic phase.

In the crypto universe, it is not always innovations that set the pace, but the decisions of the SEC. By delaying the review of Solana and Litecoin ETFs, the American regulator reminds us that no altcoin will enter the institutional markets without its approval. Behind these delays, other deadlines are approaching: XRP, Polkadot, and Dogecoin. June will therefore be decisive. Each new delay fuels speculation and outlines the contours of a regulation that could disrupt the landscape.

In the face of the increasing number of abductions targeting the crypto sector in France, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau is organizing an emergency meeting with entrepreneurs this Friday.
