С начала марта появилось 60 новых кошельков, содержащих более 1000 биткоинов каждый. Это указывает на растущую активность крупных инвесторов, китов. Количество таких адресов выросло до четырехмесячного максимума и достигло 2107 единиц, сообщили аналитики платформы Glassnode.

Bitcoin surged nearly 5% on Sunday, pushing toward the $90K mark, driven by a weakening dollar and rising monetary stimulus in Europe and China.

There’s a lot of momentum from technical indicators, but a key resistance line remains in play.

Some experts are now calling for a $150K BTC target this year, and there are even wilder Bitcoin price predictions ahead – $1M, anyone?

That’s good news not just for $BTC, but also for BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) – a hot new crypto presale ready to ride Bitcoin’s success.

Bitcoin Price Predictions Eye $90K and Beyond

$BTC’s price increase over the weekend wasn’t just a blip. The nearly 5% jump was fueled by macroeconomic shifts, particularly rising global liquidity, interest rate cuts in Europe, and weakening confidence in the US dollar.

Those factors make it likely that $BTC could test $90K in the short term – and that could just be the beginning.

Tom Lee, Fundstrat co-founder, remains ultra-bullish, stating $BTC could ‘do better than $150K’ in 2025. Meanwhile, another analyst pegged $137K as a realistic target.

Even Robert Kiyosaki, famed author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, forecasted a jaw-dropping $1M $BTC target as economic cracks widened between the US dollar and the broader global economy.

Take that last prediction with a grain of salt, of course; before $BTC can break through to $90K and beyond, it needs to defeat key support levels and avoid a potentially devastating ‘Black Swan’ price event.

How Low Will Bitcoin Go?

The good news for Bitcoin? Even with recent turmoil, the token’s price has never fallen and remained below $77K. That’s the so-called “Hammer Line,” a key resistance level to watch.

The bad news? Bitcoin also hasn’t been able to finally break through the ‘Golden Line’ at roughly $85K.

It will need to push past that mark in order to mount a serious push to $90K and beyond.

Key analysts on X, including Doctor Profit, have identified this exact dilemma.

Doctor Profit argued that Bitcoin, at least for the short-term, might continue to vacillate between the Hammer Line and the Golden line, at $77K and $82.5K.

For a few hours, it looked like he was correct. But since the early hours of Monday morning, Bitcoin’s been on the move.

Strategy Buys 6.5K Bitcoin, Sends $BTC to $90K?

Michael Saylor’s Strategy might provide the push Bitcoin needs to reach the critical $90K mark; the company just purchased another 6,556 $BTC for roughly $550M.

That gives Strategy over 538K $BTC, with over 55M beneficiaries gaining $BTC exposure through Strategy’s portfolio, ETFs, and more.

It’s yet another bullish indicator, and the timing couldn’t be better, both for $BTC and for the first-ever Bitcoin-focused meme coin, BTC Bull Token.

BTC Bull ($BTCBULL) — Bet Big on Bitcoin’s Rise

BTC Bull token ($BTCBULL) is built to thrive in bullish Bitcoin conditions.

Unlike typical meme tokens, $BTCBULL has a clear mission: reward holders as Bitcoin breaks major price milestones.

The project launches milestone-based $BTC airdrops – the first triggered when $BTC hits $150K.

Before the first airdrop, there’s a $BTCBULL token burn at $125K. That’s two major price milestones that suddenly look far closer than they did a few days ago. If the experts are correct, $150K could come before the end of 2025.

That makes $BTCBULL one of the best meme coins to buy in 2025. Holders gain more than potential $BTC airdrops; they also benefit from 84% APY in presale staking, and of course the ability to gain from any increases in $BTCBULL’s price.

BTC Bull is positioned as a high-upside play on Bitcoin’s strength – strength that’s becoming more and more obvious even in the middle of broader market uncertainty.

Why $BTCBULL Could Thrive in a Bitcoin Bull Market

As Bitcoin climbs toward $90K and the $150K narrative gains steam, projects like $BTCBULL could capture outsized attention.

The crypto market will always chase high-velocity returns, and some new meme coins will still deliver outsized potential gains. In such a market, a token like $BTCBULL, tying memecoin potential with Bitcoin’s proven success, stands out.

Do your own research; crypto is always volatile, and this isn’t financial advice.

Beyond the hype, the structure of $BTCBULL makes it more than just a meme. It’s a bet on momentum, milestones, and the magic Bitcoin. And if $BTC does reach $150K, the resulting airdrop could be a major catalyst for BTC Bull’s success.

Более 30% состоятельных жителей Южной Кореи инвестируют в криптоактивы, рассматривая их как главный инструмент долгосрочного сохранения и приумножения капитала, показало исследование инвестиционно-финансовой корпорации Hana Bank.

Комиссия по финансовому надзору Тайваня (FSC) и тайский Центральный полицейский университет запустили совместную программу обучения правоохранителей борьбе с криптовалютными преступлениями. Полицейских собираются учить отслеживать транзакции в блокчейне, выявлять схемы отмывания денег и кражи цифровых активов.

Back in 2021, at the height of the meme coin bull run, Shiba Inu ran over 7,000,000% to outperform the more established Dogecoin. This performance was achieved with the expectation that Shiba Inu was the “Dogecoin killer” and that the meme coin would eventually flip DOGE to become the leading meme coin.

However, with the passage of time, both Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have declined, with their prices falling over 80% from their all-time highs. Above all, Shiba Inu has failed to actually topple Dogecoin, with the SHIB market cap remaining well below that of DOGE. But as the market inches toward what is expected to be another bull market, the question now is, is it still possible for Shiba Inu to overtake Dogecoin as the number 1 meme coin?

Dogecoin Gets ETF Filings While Shiba Inu Gets Snubbed

Crypto exchange-traded product (ETF) approvals by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have been the major driver behind this bull run. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have already gotten the green light, so attention has shifted to other altcoins. XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin have been the favorites, while the likes of Shiba Inu have been nowhere to be found, despite constant push from the SHIB community.

For example, there have been four filings for Dogecoin ETFs from Bitwise, Grayscale, Osprey Fund, and 21Shares. The decision for the first of these applications, which is the Grayscale Dogecoin ETF, is expected to happen on May 21, which is only a month from now.

Meanwhile, there have been no official filings for a Shiba Inu ETF, despite the SHIB team giving reasons why it should be. Lucie, the Shiba Inu marketing lead, explained in an X (formerly Twitter) post that SHIB is a good candidate for an ETF being listed on over 110 exchanges and 212 trading pairs. “It’s basically everywhere: easy to access, easy to trade,” Lucie argued.

DOGE Open interest Above $1.5 Billion While SHIB Wanes

Another major metric where Dogecoin continues to outperform Shiba Inu is in terms of interest. While open interest has waned across the board, DOGE’s open interest remains significantly higher than that of SHIB.

CoinGlass’ data shows that the Dogecoin open interest is still sitting at about $1.5 billion, while the Shiba Inu open interest is still at $131 million.

This suggests that crypto traders are more interested in DOGE compared to SHIB, and with meme coins being driven by interest, it suggests that DOGE would continue to be ahead of SHIB.

Charles Schwab, a top brokerage firm in the United States, has laid plans to roll out a cryptocurrency trading platform as early as next year. The development marks increasing mainstream adoption of digital currencies and may redefine the competitive dynamics for crypto exchanges.

Customer Demand Spurs Schwab’s Crypto Push

According to CEO Rick Wurster, the company has seen a 400% increase in traffic to its cryptocurrency articles. Approximately 70% of the visitors represent possible new customers.

The heightened interest has swayed the brokerage titan to open up beyond what it currently offers as digital currency assets, including Bitcoin futures and crypto ETFs.

“We saw a 400% increase in traffic to [our crypto site] recently, 70% of whom were prospects… not clients,” Wurster said. The new trading platform would place Schwab directly against well-established crypto exchanges such as Coinbase and Binance.

Regulatory Outlook Becomes More Optimistic

The move comes amid the US regulatory outlook for cryptocurrencies which seems to be on the verge of improvement. Schwab’s executives believe that future regulatory modifications will enable them to provide easier access to their customers for trading in cryptocurrencies.

According to reports, the new administration has moved quicker on regulation than has past leadership. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has also made moves that Schwab considers positive for the future of the industry.

With its US headquarters, Charles Schwab brings significant financial knowledge and brand power to the world of cryptocurrency. The firm thinks these assets will allow it to compete favorably as it enters a field that is currently dominated by native players.

The brokerage company already custodies for Truth.Fi, a crypto investing platform launched last month by Trump Media and Technology Group. The fact that the company has such a relationship proves Schwab’s continued engagement with the digital currency market even prior to its trading platform launch.

Market Competition Heats Up

If Schwab manages to open its spot trading platform, it would then be a powerful challenger to long-standing exchanges. The move is a big one for a conventional finance institution in entering a market that was long considered on the fringes.

The move follows wider trends across the financial services sector, as traditional institutions add digital currency offerings in response to demand from customers. For investors, the move by Schwab might mean greater variety and potentially differing standards of service depending on the firm’s pre-existing reputation within traditional finance.

As per market analysts, this move has the potential to spur the inclusion of bitcoin in general investment portfolios. The platform should be rolled out before the end of next year, although the particular digital assets to be provided haven’t yet been disclosed.

A fleeting exchange on social media has drawn two of the crypto sector’s most prominent protocol architects into unexpected alignment. On Sunday, Cardano creator Charles Hoskinson replied to a technical blog post from Ethereum co‑founder Vitalik Buterin with a terse endorsement: “It makes sense, we are using RISC V with BitVMX. It’s the future.”

Buterin’s Latest Proposal For Ethereum

The comment was triggered by Buterin’s newly published “Long‑term L1 execution layer proposal” on the Ethereum Magicians forum, where he argues that Ethereum should abandon the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) in favour of the open‑source RISC‑V instruction‑set architecture.

In the proposal Buterin calls the idea “equally as ambitious as the beam‑chain effort is for the consensus layer,” contending that a RISC‑V transition would “greatly improve the efficiency of the Ethereum execution layer, resolving one of the primary scaling bottlenecks,” while also simplifying the core codebase. He stresses that the familiar account model and opcodes “would stay exactly the same,” explaining that opcodes such as SLOAD, SSTORE and CALL would be exposed to contracts as RISC‑V syscalls.

“Old‑style EVM contracts will continue to work and will be fully two‑way interoperable with new‑style RISC‑V contracts,” he adds, sketching implementation paths that range from a dual‑VM environment to a more radical interpreter‑based migration.

Buterin’s technical motivation centres on the cost of proving EVM execution inside zero‑knowledge circuits. He points to measurements from Succinct’s ZK‑EVM showing that four tasks—deserialising inputs, initialising the witness database, computing state roots and executing blocks—consume the bulk of prover cycles.

The last of those, block execution, alone accounts for roughly half of total proving time. “Some numbers suggest that in limited cases, this could give efficiency gains over 100 ×,” Buterin writes, suggesting that direct access to a RISC‑V virtual machine could eliminate the overhead of compiling the EVM into RISC‑V for ZK proof generation. He argues that even if pre‑compiles become the new bottleneck, the shift would still produce “very significant” performance wins.

Cardano’s Use Of RISC‑V

Hoskinson’s swift assent carries weight because Cardano has been building around the same architecture. The network’s extended UTxO model is now being paired with BitVMX FORCE, a collaborative effort designed to let Cardano dApps tap into Bitcoin’s liquidity and decentralised‑finance activity.

BitVMX emulates a general‑purpose CPU for Bitcoin using RISC‑V, which in turn lets Cardano’s domain‑specific languages—Plutus and the low‑level Aiken—compile contracts that run seamlessly on either chain. By adopting the same instruction set for its off‑chain circuits, Cardano hopes to render zero‑knowledge proofs more efficient and to facilitate cross‑chain functionality without resorting to trusted bridges.

RISC‑V’s appeal is two‑fold. As an open specification it avoids licensing constraints while offering implementers freedom to add extensions; at the same time, it’s simple, orthogonal design is friendlier to zero‑knowledge proof systems than the EVM’s eclectic opcode catalogue or Bitcoin’s austere script. Hoskinson’s “It’s the future” therefore describes not merely Cardano’s roadmap but a growing industry trend, now echoed inside Ethereum’s own research circles.

Whether Ethereum’s highly conservative core‑dev process will embrace Buterin’s proposal remains uncertain. The Beacon‑chain merge, the Cancun/Deneb upgrade and the push toward statelessness already crowd the execution‑layer agenda. Yet the fact that both a UTXO‑based competitor and the originator of account‑based smart contracts now cite RISC‑V as the optimal long‑term target suggests that the argument will not dissipate quickly. As Buterin concludes, stripping the base layer to “well within” ten thousand lines of code may require “this kind of radical change.”

At press time, Cardano traded at $0.64.

In an interview on BFM Business, Ripple’s Managing Director for the UK & Europe, Cassie Craddock, lifted the veil on how the blockchain company intends to weave the XRP Ledger into the fabric of prime brokerage. Speaking about Ripple’s $1.25 billion acquisition of London‑headquartered Hidden Road, Craddock confirmed that the forthcoming Ripple USD‑backed stablecoin, RLUSD, “will be used as collateral,” a step she said “essentially [enables] the bridging of the digital asset space to TradFi, which is extremely exciting.”

The Role Of The XRP Ledger

Craddock elaborated that Hidden Road’s entire post‑trade stack is slated to migrate onto the XRP Ledger. “The XRP ledger will be used as a post‑trade for all of Hidden Rose prime brokerage services,” she said. With settlement finality on XRPL taking three to five seconds, the move promises to compress a post‑trade timetable that can stretch to 24 hours on traditional rails. Hidden Road processes more than 50 million transactions each day and clears upward of $10 billion daily; shifting that load to XRPL represents one of the most ambitious real‑world performance tests for Ripple’s twelve‑year‑old blockchain.

The executive highlighted the captive institutional market Ripple is acquiring. Hidden Road clears roughly $3 trillion annually across foreign exchange, derivatives, fixed income, and digital assets for more than 300 hedge funds, market makers, and proprietary trading firms. “We see that this captive audience of 300 institutional customers is a really interesting portfolio of customers that will and do need digital‑asset infrastructure,” Craddock noted, adding that the group will gain access to Ripple’s existing payment and custody rails.

The same audience is expected to benefit from RLUSD as a cross‑margin asset. Hidden Road’s model already permits clients to post Bitcoin or US treasuries as collateral against foreign‑exchange trades; inserting a fully‑backed dollar stablecoin into that mix opens the door to what Craddock called “bridging” between crypto and legacy asset classes. Under the integration plan, RLUSD will move natively on the XRPL, allowing clients to pledge capital and settle trades in a single atomic workflow.

Prominent crypto commentator CryptoEri underscored the operational angle in a post on X, summarizing that “the XRP Ledger will probably handle some actual transactions (e.g., settling trades, moving RLUSD collateral) and data (e.g., recording trade details, reconciling clearing data) for Hidden Road’s post‑trade processes.” She cautioned that more granular information would have to come from Ripple “and sleuths on the ledger,” but the comments echoed Ripple’s ambition to show the ledger working as a real‑time clearing bus rather than a passive settlement layer.

Ripple’s acquisition, announced on 8 April 2025, still awaits regulatory clearance. Hidden Road already connects to venues such as Coinbase International, OKX, Deribit, Bitfinex, and Bullish, giving Ripple a ready‑made distribution channel for RLUSD once the deal closes. In the meantime, Craddock stressed that Ripple’s focus remains “building use cases and utility for digital assets and enabling and solving customer problems for our banking and institutional customers.”

At press time, XRP traded at $2.11.
