CRYPTO NEWS

  1. On 11th May, Bitcoin traded around $104,000, briefly topping $105,000, and is just 4.5% below its January all-time high of $108,786. Analysts say a new high is plausible, driven by strong technicals, institutional interest, and optimism over U.S.-China trade talks—though short-term corrections are possible due to overbought conditions.

  2. On May 12, 2025, U.S. SEC Chair Paul Atkins announced plans to establish new rules for crypto tokens classified as securities, aiming to provide clear guidelines for their issuance and trading. The SEC is also considering allowing registered broker-dealers to trade non-securities like Bitcoin and Ethereum. This initiative aligns with President Trump’s pro-crypto stance and marks a shift from the previous administration’s stricter enforcement approach. Republican Commissioner Hester Peirce is leading the task force responsible for developing these new regulations. (Source: Reuters)
  3. U.S. inflation fell to 2.3% in April — a four-year low — raising expectations of Fed rate cuts. Markets reacted positively, with stocks up and the dollar down. Crypto markets also gained, as lower inflation supports risk assets like Bitcoin, which continues to trade above $100K. (Source: Tradingview)
  4. Throughout the week, Bitcoin stayed above $100,000, largely driven by institutional inflows and ETF demand. Analysts highlight strong accumulation between $93K–$95K as key support. (Source: the block)
  5. Bitcoin dominance has fallen to 61.6% as Ethereum and altcoins gain momentum. BTC’s price slipped from $105.8K to $102.6K, while ETH surged 13.4% in five days. Altcoins attract interest as many remain well below their all-time highs. (Source: Crypto Times)
  6. JP Morgan predicts Bitcoin will outperform gold in H2 2025, driven by rising institutional adoption and U.S. state support. Since April 22, Bitcoin has surged 18% while gold fell 8%, reflecting shifting investor flows from gold to BTC. (Source: Tradingview)
