As the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) shows a slight decline in inflation, Bitcoin holds its breath. At 3.1%, the number is below expectations, but the king of crypto paradoxically plunges from $84,000 to $83,000 in just a few hours. A paradox? Not really.

The SEC's case against Ripple is reaching a decisive turning point. After more than four years of legal confrontation, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) appears ready to close this emblematic case. This trial, one of the most publicized in cryptocurrency history, has raised a fundamental question: Is XRP a financial security subject to U.S. stock market regulations?

The rapid rise of the Solana network at the beginning of the year seemed to herald a new era for its ecosystem. Fueled by an unprecedented speculative frenzy around memecoins, the blockchain recorded record revenues, reaching $55.3 million per week. However, the party was short-lived. Within weeks, the excitement evaporated, leading to a brutal collapse. Today, Solana's weekly revenues have fallen back to $4 million, a staggering drop of 93%.
