This week, another victim fell to the increasingly clever crypto scams . A single user lost $20,000 worth of BSC-USD (a stablecoin from the exchange Binance that is pegged to the U.S. dollar) in a double address poisoning attack. Data flagged by the scam alerting service Cyver show that this user was targeted not just once but twice in the span of a single hour. In each instance, they sent $10,000 to two different bad addresses—both of which were designed to look like the user’s real address. This episode highlights the enduring danger of address poisoning in decentralized systems. It serves as a clear reminder that even the most mundane crypto transactions can be perilous if sound verification practices are not followed. The Mechanics of Address Poisoning Address poisoning is a form of clever trickery that scammers use to carry out their schemes. They send worthless transactions from addresses that look very similar to the ones that a target has previously interacted with. The idea is to get the target to think they’ve been sent a transaction and, when they go to look at their transaction history, to get them to use a poisoned address in future transactions. If you know you haven’t sent a transaction to the address in your history, then somebody might be trying to scam you. The common user practice of using past transaction history to recycle wallet addresses is what this scam relies upon. It mimics the appearance of a legitimate address, usually by matching the first character and the last character of the address you would expect to see. It certainly doesn’t match the middle, which is the part of the address that actually matters, especially if we’re talking about using your eyes to tell the difference between a valid and a scam wallet. Knowing that we tend to trust the first and last characters, it would appear that scammy addresses follow the principle of a good magic trick. In this specific instance, the victim committed two expensive blunders. The first transaction was for $10,000 sent to a phony address. Just one hour later, the same victim sent another $10,000 to a different scammer, using the same hoax to get the money. This quick, double-dipping took place because the crooks were watching the victim’s wallet so closely they must have been salivating to go in for another hit after the first one worked so well. It also makes you wonder how many times the same scammer has done this with other not-so-smart victims. ALERT Today, our system detected 20K $BSC -USD lost due to address poisoning scams. A single victim was targeted twice by two different scammer addresses. First, victim mistakenly sent 10K $BSC -USD to a scammer. Just 1 hour later, victim sent another 10K $BSC -USD to a second… pic.twitter.com/OTU07UAyLK — Cyvers Alerts (@CyversAlerts) May 30, 2025 BSC Ecosystem and Security Concerns Among the fastest and most used blockchain platforms in the world, the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) boasts rapid transaction times and a nominal fee structure. Largely for these reasons, it has drawn the attention of bad actors holding malicious intentions. Address poisoning, a technique used by a number of blockchain bad actors, poses a very real threat to BSC users. BSC, like other Layer 1 chains, has a decentralized nature; that is, it is not controlled from a single place. Instead, it is run by numerous independent operators all over the world. This brings with it a familiar set of advantages and enables many of the functions of a blockchain. But it also brings some disadvantages—primarily, perhaps, that the end user is responsible for the custody of funds held in, and for the movement of funds to and from, BSC. Although detection systems and real-time alerts might be improved by platforms like Cyver and other firms specializing in blockchain security, these firms cannot stop a transaction from happening in the first place. They can only issue a warning after the fact or in real-time, if they’re really good, flag a suspicious pattern that just happens to be associated with the transaction in question. And in the realm of security, where a system can be only as good as its last update, alerts and warnings are not even a close second to prevention. Best Practices for Users: How to Stay Safe Losing $20,000 in BSC-USD to address poisoning is a recent, painful lesson, but one that offers takeaways for the wider crypto community. First and foremost: never copy wallet addresses directly from transaction history. Always use verified, manually saved addresses, or better yet, use wallet features that allow for whitelisting or address tagging. The second step is to turn on the anti-phishing tools and browser add-ons that look at the addresses you are trying to visit and let you know if they are not what they are supposed to be, like if they are really close to the name of a legit site but not quite right, or if they’re just plain old scammer sites. A lot of wallets and interfaces now have this functionality built in, but it’s up to you to use it and keep it updated. For the third point, verify that the addresses are correct down to each character before you dispatch any meaningful amount of cryptocurrency. A moment’s worth of carefulness could conserve thousands in not having to replace lost funds. Finally, keep yourself updated. Crypto develops quickly, and so do the schemes of bad actors. Following alert services like Cyver, reading up on the latest scams, and keeping an overall suspicious disposition are musts for safely navigating the crypto world. The ecosystem keeps on growing and maturing, and so must the behavior and protective practices of its users. Today’s incident is yet another reminder that in the decentralized world, security is not just a feature—it is a personal responsibility. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

Recently, Bitcoin has had a notable correction and has come down about 5% from last week’s peak. This pullback has put around 1.27 million Bitcoin addresses in the red; these holders are now underwater compared to their purchase price. Despite this short-term decline, on-chain data reveals a pretty amazing narrative of historic buying activity just below the $100,000 mark—suggesting that this level could serve as a potent support zone if Bitcoin visits it again in the not-too-distant future. Historic Buying and Strong Support at Key Psychological Level Bitcoin’s price has swung widely over the past few weeks, but significant demand has emerged near the $100,000 mark. Erik Vorhees, a cryptocurrency entrepreneur based in Puerto Rico, likens the situation to a game with two players. On one side are the sellers, who have managed to push the price below $100,000. On the other are the buyers, who keep snapping up Bitcoin anytime the price gets near this level. Important psychological benchmarks often exist in financial markets, serving as levels where many buyers and sellers seem to congregate. With respect to Bitcoin, the $100,000 price level has taken on huge amounts of attention, both as a price that buyers might be attracted to and as a price that some traders might be selling into. We could describe it as the price level with the most dual attraction, given that it is also a round number. This paragraph is essentially a translation of the previous one with slightly different wording. Why is the price level with the most dual attraction also a good candidate for a psychological price level? Because, as way too many commentators have also already pointed out, it’s a.k.a. a round number. Moreover, this latent support correlates with larger market demand patterns that have stayed strong during this cycle—even following Bitcoin’s former all-time highs. Demand for Bitcoin is now approaching the peak levels of the previous bull market. On average, about $1.8 billion in fresh capital flows into the market each day – roughly on par with the November 2021 high around $64K. The largest inflows of this cycle occurred at approximately… pic.twitter.com/XdfdUMaaKL — Axel Adler Jr (@AxelAdlerJr) May 30, 2025 Investor Demand Mirrors Peak Levels of Previous Bull Market The total demand for Bitcoin is still extremely high, almost reaching the demand levels that we saw in the last bull market. Daily, Bitcoin sees fresh capital inflows of around $1.8 billion on average. This is about equivalent to what was happening in the 2021 bull run when we were trading at about $64,000. This cycle’s, from about $73,000 and $92,000 price levels, most huge capital came in. At $73,000, the market recorded its most substantial peak inflows of $3.6 billion, while at $92,000, the inflows grew to even more extreme $4.5 billion levels. Investors keep on channeling wah-wah wealth into Bitcoin, despite its steady diet of ups and downs in the price department. This trend shows that the market still has a good appetite for Bitcoin, and it proves that investors are still willing to put down large amounts of capital even after Bitcoin has set new all-time highs. This also seems to act as a validation of sorts for the long-term value proposition of Bitcoin, and more than anything, it shows that amidst the short-term price corrections, the commitment to Bitcoin seems to be as strong as ever. ETF Outflows Signal Temporary Profit-Taking Amid Overall Strength On May 29 (Eastern Time), the U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw a net outflow of $359 million. This halted a 10-day streak of consistent net inflows into these potential investment vehicles. Bitcoin has slid ~5 % from last week’s peak, putting 1.27M addresses in the red. But on-chain data shows heavy historic buying just under $100 k, suggesting this key psychological level could act as strong support; and perhaps fuel the next leg up if revisited. pic.twitter.com/38eGCnr1Kl — Sentora (previously IntoTheBlock) (@SentoraHQ) May 30, 2025 ETFs commonly see outflows interpreted as temporary profit-taking. Who could blame them? ETF inflows had reached dizzying heights of over $700 billion per year, and they were used to finance not just the 2017-2018 bull run in cryptocurrency prices but also the 2018-2019 recovery. Withdrawals from ETFs might raise some concerns, since they are such reliable tools that support the price of cryptocurrencies, but those withdrawals are not necessarily a sign of a weakening market. This movement also reflects the broader dynamics of Bitcoin investment, where participants in the market regularly seek to optimize returns and create better-performing investable products. That this outflow happened after a long run of not just inflows but also net inflows into the Bitcoin space highlights that there really is ongoing interest in not just investing in Bitcoin itself but also ongoing engagement in Bitcoin-related financial products. ETH experienced unusually large exchange outflows this week while it outperformed Bitcoin; both signs that traders are buying and moving coins into cold wallets. pic.twitter.com/ce3C4Hwx3A — Sentora (previously IntoTheBlock) (@SentoraHQ) May 30, 2025 Looking Ahead: Resilience and Potential for Next Rally In general, the Bitcoin price decline of 5% appears to be a healthy correction rather than a dip that foretells sustained weakness. A review of buying in the dip from the historic lows under the $100,000 level reveals not only unrelenting support from retail investors but also strong participation from institutional investors. Should Bitcoin return to the crucial support zone near $100,000, the collection of buying demand there might serve as a launch mechanism, propelling fresh enthusiasm among investors and very possibly signaling the start of the next bull market. Over the next few weeks, investors and analysts will be keeping an eye on whether Bitcoin can maintain this critical level and push on toward new all-time highs or if it’s going to be shoveled by market forces into a prolonged period of consolidation. Currently, the on-chain data and inflow trends paint a mildly optimistic picture despite the recent volatility. They suggest that Bitcoin is increasingly being treated as a reliable digital asset that attracts a great deal of global capital. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

The AI Agent economy gave back a hefty portion of its recent gains in the last 24 hours, with valuations across the sector declining after a not-so-sustained spike in $VIRTUAL. Total market cap for the AI Agent sector? Now at $10.59 billion, which gets us to an -8.77% change on the day. We see an ecosystem pullback that really hit some of the core layer tokens pretty hard, and a good example of that is the Virtuals ecosystem. They saw their ecosystem market cap dip a little bit to $2.59 billion, and we got an -8.28% price decline in the $VIRTUAL token. Even though prices are cooling, investor attention and market activity, which are gauged by mindshare, remain high. Indeed, mindshare rose 2.25% to 38.83%. This suggests that while some short-term holders may be rotating out of major tokens like $VIRTUAL, the overall interest in the sector remains robust. Vigorous investor attention is likely to lead to more market activity in the not-so-distant future. Volatility Follows Echo Rally as $VIRTUAL Retreats $VIRTUAL has seen a drop in its value, only a few days removed from a powerful price increase. That rally was largely attributed to a massive uptick in user engagement and trading activity post-“Echo” update. The update had propelled $VIRTUAL up by nearly 40% earlier this week, pushing it into the realm of the ecosystem “VIRTUAL”. However, as in most instances when a huge upsurge in value occurs, a retracement is now following. On May 30, the price of $VIRTUAL corrected by -8.33%, landing at $2.1851. With profit-taking underway and speculative interest cycling into newer entrants, the recent decline appears more technical than fundamental. Virtuals’ overall market cap dropped by a similar percentage, reflecting synchronized movements across its sub-projects and partners. Yet, the platform holds one of the most robust positions in the AI agent economy. Its total sector share of mind is 38.83%, suggesting that traders and developers are continuing to pay it heed, even amidst a broader cooldown. In fact, the potential for a rebound seems high, considering that in this fast-moving, AI-infused Web3 landscape, sentiment often rotates in a matter of days. Mindshare and Momentum Shift Toward Rising Stars Although $VIRTUAL has stepped back, a number of smaller projects in the Virtuals ecosystem and the broader AI agent space are beginning to attract investor interest. Traders seem to be rotating into these newer or more nimble plays, in search of the higher beta opportunities that might give us the next leg up. MISATO (@Misato_virtuals), which jumped by +8.08%. Its focus on lightweight, autonomous decision-making for micro-agents seems to have caught the eye of traders looking for next-gen performance assets, and the market seems to be rewarding that with a nice bump in price. Next in line is TRISIG (@tri_sigma_), reaping +5.70%, and not far behind is POLY (@polytraderAI) at +5.15%. Both projects are building agent frameworks geared towards decentralized trading and finance. These are two sectors where AI is starting to make significant inroads. GRPH (@soulgra_ph) and SIREN (@genius_sirenai) likewise saw modest gains of +2.41% and +1.18%, respectively, indicating that a shift in momentum toward the kind of under-the-radar projects with which they are associated may be in play. And that is a shift with which investors in speculative projects might be more than pleased. Virtuals Daily Update | May 30th, 2025 Stay up to date on all news from the @virtuals_io ecosystem over the last 24 hours… pic.twitter.com/SxfKmbD79H — Graeme (@gkisokay) May 30, 2025 Capital moving into smaller capitalized projects is common following a sector surge. When major tokens such as $VIRTUAL begin a consolidation phase, high-risk opportunity investors often move to the next tier, seeking potential micro-cap projects and aiming to catch the next early breakout wave of the sector. Looking Ahead: Temporary Reset or the Start of Rotation? The present decline is in the question—is it a temporary dip following the exuberant advance or a developing scenario of prolonged underperformance for certain segments in the AI agent ecosystem? At the rate of innovation we are seeing, and with the consistent level of new project launches across the ecosystem, the answer may well be both. It seems likely that for the large-cap leaders like $VIRTUAL, a cooling-off period may be in store. At the same time, we may see emerging projects take up the narrative in the short term. The ongoing increase in mindshare indicates that attention isn’t departing from the sector but is instead reallocating within it. This seems more indicative of a healthy AI Agent market than an unhealthy one—especially with the not-so-recent memory of some big-name players leaving the space. The project is able to maintain relevance and doesn’t seem likely to disappear anytime soon. It retains a foundational pillar in the AI ecosystem. With its price decline, it isn’t able to pick up too much momentum, and it covers a lot with only a few mechanisms in play. As the migration of smart capital continues and showroom forays made by speculative money in the crypto sector seem not yet to have ended, one can only emphasize the need to maintain a wary watch on the ever-evolving AI-crypto intersection. It’s not too soon, and it may not be too late, to keep a finger on the pulse of AI-driven crypto. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

Saudi Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Saud has invested $100 million into XRP through a strategic partnership with publicly traded company VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ: VVPR). In the wake of this notable development, a pseudonymous crypto journalist, known as Jungle Inc on X, has highlighted what this means for XRP and its teeming holders. VivoPower’s XRP-Focused Strategy VivoPower has successfully raised a total of $121 million in funding to implement what it describes as a comprehensive XRP-focused treasury and infrastructure strategy. Of this total, $100 million originates from Prince Abdulaziz, making his participation the most significant component of the fundraising round. This marks the first time a public company has officially committed to building its treasury operations around XRP rather than more established digital assets such as Bitcoin or Ethereum. We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023 According to Jungle Inc, VivoPower’s strategy includes allocating capital to directly purchase and hold XRP as a reserve asset . The company also plans to build new infrastructure on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) , which will support a broader pivot toward decentralized finance (DeFi) solutions. As part of its strategic shift, VivoPower is preparing to spin off certain legacy divisions to focus its operations exclusively on cryptocurrency and blockchain applications. Leadership and Strategic Appointments In a notable personnel move, Ripple veteran Adam Traidman has been appointed as advisory chairman to guide the company’s transformation. Traidman, who has experience in the XRP ecosystem, is expected to assist in VivoPower’s transition into a crypto-first corporate entity with a focus on XRPL-based applications. Institutional Implications and Market Perception Jungle Inc emphasized the broader implications of this initiative. He referred to the investment as a “royal-level endorsement” of XRP and stated that the development “proves XRP’s growing DeFi and treasury use case.” He also highlighted that this move could lead to increased institutional interest in XRP, similar to how MicroStrategy’s acquisition of Bitcoin catalyzed corporate interest in BTC during previous market cycles. The announcement presents a notable inflection point in XRP’s institutional narrative. Unlike other public companies that have thus far preferred Bitcoin or Ethereum for treasury allocation, VivoPower’s decision to center its capital strategy around XRP introduces a new precedent. The involvement of Prince Abdulaziz further distinguishes this investment by providing it with geopolitical and economic weight, particularly given Saudi Arabia’s broader interest in emerging financial technologies. Jungle Inc concluded by stating, “The XRP narrative just changed. Institutions are watching.” This statement reflects a growing perception among market observers that XRP may be entering a new phase of institutional relevance, driven by high-profile endorsements and a maturing use case within both treasury management and decentralized financial infrastructure.

This week, the crypto markets have put Ethereum in the spotlight, with the altcoin outperforming even Bitcoin and signaling a distinct change in investor sentiment. Massive amounts of ETH have flowed out of exchanges, suggesting that a move into cold storage has taken place. Cold storage is when traders move their assets off exchanges and into hardware wallets, a storage solution that is much more secure than keeping crypto on an exchange. Ethereum appears to have very secure long-term holders. ETH experienced unusually large exchange outflows this week while it outperformed Bitcoin; both signs that traders are buying and moving coins into cold wallets. pic.twitter.com/ce3C4Hwx3A — Sentora (previously IntoTheBlock) (@SentoraHQ) May 30, 2025 Exchange Outflows Suggest Strategic Accumulation This week, Ethereum saw extremely large volumes of coins leaving centralized exchanges, which is an indicator that has usually foreshadowed an increase in the cryptocurrency’s price. When Ethereum and other altcoins are moving off exchanges in large amounts, it’s a net positive for their prices. Although Bitcoin has had a relatively stable price, Ethereum has performed significantly better and continued to do so over the same timeframe. This performance differential, along with net outflows, signals a change in sentiment. Investors seem to be moving into ETH as they anticipate major events that could catalyze the price. This sentiment has been intensified by recent spot inflows into Ethereum exchange-traded funds in the U.S. On May 29, those funds recorded a total net inflow of $91.93 million. The funds, in fact, are riding a streak of nine consecutive days of positive net inflows. With these kinds of consistent inflows, Ethereum ETFs are a way for institutions and retail investors to access Ethereum in a regulated manner. And this kind of demand for something like an Ethereum ETF is a sign of growing accessibility for crypto. On May 29 (ET), U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a total net outflow of $359 million, ending a 10-day streak of net inflows. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $91.93 million, marking a 9-day streak of net inflows. https://t.co/ueXcZjub6m — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) May 30, 2025 Dormant ICO Whales Awaken: Massive ETH Movements Raise Eyebrows Together with the wider market, two Ethereum wallets from the time of the ICO have awakened from long dormancy and are now making huge transactions that have caught the eye of blockchain analysts. An early participant in the Ethereum ICO has an address tied to it and at one time held a mind-boggling 1 million ETH. Just five hours ago, this address moved 959.69 ETH to the OKX exchange. At current market valuations, the transferred amount is approximately worth $2.54 million. Despite this massive transaction, the address still retains a whopping 50,704 ETH on-chain, valued at around $132 million. 这次是两个 ICO 巨鲸一起发力了,成本都是低至 0.31 美金的大佬 1⃣ ETH ICO 100 万枚 $ETH 巨鲸 5 小时前向 #OKX 充值 959.69 ETH,价值 254 万美元;链上仍剩余 50704 ETH,价值 1.32 亿美元 https://t.co/JFVlWHNe7N 2⃣ 2015 年 ICO 10 万枚 $ETH 的 OG 3 小时前向 #Kraken 充值 587 ETH,价值… https://t.co/xOj0szBX2C pic.twitter.com/5Rh5zgUmVE — Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa) May 30, 2025 Not only is this address’s holding large, but it also has a significant historical context. According to blockchain records, this wallet acquired its ETH during the ICO at the astonishingly low price of around $0.31 per coin. Such moves made by early adopters can be interpreted in various ways — they may have been profit-taking or involve a kind of strategic reallocation. This week also saw news emerge about a second wallet, believed to be associated with a participant in the 2015 Ethereum ICO and currently holding around 100,000 ETH. Just three hours ago, this wallet transferred 587 ETH to Kraken, which, at the current market rate, equates to about $1.56 million. Since March 13, 2023, the same address has sold a total of 14,398 ETH, bringing in approximately $28.47 million at an average price of $1,977. This slow and almost laboriously drawn-out sell-off pattern indicates that if this address is indeed a whale, it’s presently exiting either the Ethereum or Web3 space, or diversifying its assets. Market Implications and the Road Ahead These synchronized actions create a many-sided depiction of Ethereum’s contemporary condition. On one side, institutional investors are embracing Ethereum with a swift-paced buying frenzy, as shown by the ETF inflow now stretching across nine consecutive days. On the other side, a handful of very old and very large Ethereum holders — some of which have been clutching their assets since the Ethereum ICO back in 2014 — are starting to sell off portions of their holdings after nearly a decade. Even with these substantial sales, ETH’s price has held strong, thanks to the collective confidence in the crypto market and because of the dwindling supply of liquid Ethereum resulting from the cold wallet migrations. If the current trend of outflows holds, Ethereum may see less of an obligation to sell and more of a platform for price increases. Ethereum 2.0 is in a progressive stage of its upgrades, layer 2 adoption is rising, and ETF inflows are on the upswing, putting Ethereum (ETH) in a robust position. Yet, even with all these positive developments, there is a group of investors who could still negatively impact Ethereum’s price in the near term. Those investors are the ICO whales. Ethereum is proving its relevance yet again as the crypto market heads into the second half of 2025. It’s not just a smart contract platform; it’s a maturing financial asset drawing interest from both long-term believers and institutional capital.

Pump.fun , a top platform in the Solana ecosystem for creating and trading meme tokens, has made the news again—but this time, it’s not about a new meme token. At 11:30 AM (UTC) yesterday, pump.fun moved a colossal 156,000 SOL (equivalent to $25.71 million) to the centralized exchange Kraken. This transaction represents almost three weeks’ worth of stale fee income. And it isn’t just another horn-blowing at what has to be regarded as an insane revenue-generating platform. This is more than a profit. The pump.fun team’s actions have serious implications for the Solana ecosystem and might lead to the latest token generation event on Solana. The platform’s revenue model, which charges fees on token launches and transactions, continues to rake in millions of dollars on a consistent basis. According to data from DeFiLlama, pump.fun has been averaging around $1.3 million per day in transaction fees. The timing of this recent transfer aligns closely with that daily figure over the past 19 days, pointing to a systematic off-ramping strategy employed by the platform to convert on-chain earnings into fiat or centralized holdings. Regular Transfers Suggest Systematic Revenue Strategy It is not the first time that pump.fun has made a move like this. On-chain data illustrates that the platform routinely accumulates transaction fees in SOL over a period of one to two weeks before transferring them out in bulk to Kraken. These withdrawals are part of a long-standing pattern — a well-oiled revenue engine quietly extracting value from one of the most speculative corners of the crypto market. According to reports, pump.fun has sold more than 4.025 million SOL over the past year. The total roughly amounts to $727 million. That volume has been liquidated at an average price of $180.70 per SOL, a not-so-obvious indication of what might be the first truly profitable crypto exchange. pump. fun 在半小时前将 15.6 万枚 SOL ($25.71M) 手续费收入转进 Kraken。 根据 defillama 上的数据,近期 pump. fun 每天的手续费收入在 $130 万左右。这跟他们本次隔了 19 天转出的 SOL 价值是比较吻合的。 pump. fun 每在积累了一到两周的手续费收入后就会将这些 SOL 转进… https://t.co/acS6GMtMrq pic.twitter.com/xsWvfhKqbV — 余烬 (@EmberCN) May 30, 2025 Most of our activity in crypto space happens on exchanges. So if you pay close attention to almost any crypto project or platform these days, you’ll notice they all say something like: “Watch us on exchanges!” Or, “Follow our price fluctuations on exchanges!” With this in mind, let’s try to understand the events of the last few days under an even_mi_meme umbrella. Meme Token Frenzy Fuels the Engine pump.fun has achieved current success due to the meme token frenzy, especially among those on the Solana blockchain. In recent months, there has been a wild uptick in the number of inexpensive, viral tokens being thrown around on Solana — many of which seem to be spun up within moments on platforms like pump.fun. Even if most of these tokens are bound to death spiral anyway, the sheer volume and transactional activity of them across the pump.fun ecosystem is generating huge fee income for the platform. What makes pump.fun unique is how straightforward its interface is and how large its user base is. Every new token that gets launched pays a fee, and every trade adds to the transaction fee pool — which the platform collects in SOL. With the hype around meme coins showing no sign of letting up, especially on Solana, pump.fun is perfectly positioned to capture more of this slice of the mania-fueled economy. The most recent $25.71 million payment to Kraken underscores the effect spinning into action here. More user speculation means more fees, and those fees lead directly to greater liquidity for pump.fun and its principals. What This Means for the Broader Solana Ecosystem Pump.fun consistently brings in a healthy income; this shows Solana is a healthy network. The mean transaction volume of pump.fun is a string of soloing on Solana; this means the pump.fun is confirming Solana’s claims of being a low-fee, fast-speed network. Some people suggest more and more that the meme coin activity is unsustainable, and that’s just a signal for the crypto whales to pull out. In fact, the raw numbers coming out of pump.fun suggest otherwise: They’re real, driving real volume, and they’re bringing in real dinero. Platform sends regular payments to Kraken; why? Periodic payments from the platform to Kraken raise more questions than they answer about pump.fun’s sustainability and long-term planning. Is the platform just a short-term liquidity extractor, or does it have some kind of long-term roadmap? So far, the team has kept largely mum on the question. No matter what happens from this point, pump.fun has made itself a potent presence in the current crypto world. As long as guesswork crypto trading remains alive and well — and as long as users are willing to pay for the privilege — pump.fun will likely continue to be one of the most minting-at-will entities in the DeFi space. For both watchers and merchants, the communication is evident: keep an eye on the fees. For in the midst of a speculative frenzy, pump.fun is almost assuredly right there at the peak, collecting its quiet, ancillary profits, and sending tens of millions in SOL out to Kraken.

The post SEC Clarifies Meme Coins Like $TRUMP Are Not Securities: What Investors Need to Know appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has formally clarified that it will not regulate meme coins such as $TRUMP . This announcement follows a decision made earlier this year confirming that these tokens do not meet the legal definition of securities under U.S. law. Commissioner Hester Peirce emphasized that while meme coins are part of a vibrant crypto niche, they do not fall under the agency’s regulatory purview. Peirce made the statement during the Bitcoin 2025 event in Las Vegas , noting that investors in meme coins should not expect traditional protections from the SEC. SEC Takes a Hands-Off Approach — Similar to NFTs Peirce drew comparisons between the current surge in meme coin interest and the NFT boom of 2021. Like NFTs, meme coins often fall outside regulatory frameworks, meaning buyers are engaging with minimal oversight or recourse in the event of fraud or volatility. The meme coin segment has grown substantially, with a current market capitalization of over $62 billion and a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $10 billion. Top tokens in this category include Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe, $TRUMP, and Bonk. The $TRUMP Token: A Politically Charged Meme Coin Launched in January shortly before the presidential inauguration, the $TRUMP token surged to $44.28 before stabilizing around $10.71. Notably, around 80% of its token supply is reportedly controlled by the Trump Organization and its affiliates, raising concerns over potential conflicts of interest. Lawmakers such as Senator Richard Blumenthal have raised ethical questions about the Trump family potentially profiting from crypto projects while holding political influence. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : Why Is the Crypto Market Down Today? , Regulatory Shift or Political Strategy? The SEC has also recently dropped its legal battle against Binance , a move many see as reflective of the current administration’s more crypto-friendly stance. While some speculate that these regulatory decisions may align with President Trump’s pro-crypto policies , Commissioner Peirce firmly denied any political motivation. “Our goal is to create a better regulatory environment for all participants,” she said . Peirce also defended the SEC’s decision to rescind Staff Accounting Bulletin 121, which previously restricted banks from offering crypto custody services. Investor Takeaway: Proceed With Caution While the SEC’s clarification offers legal clarity, it simultaneously underscores the risk for retail investors. Without regulatory protection, meme coin investments remain highly speculative. As this space continues to grow and intertwine with political narratives, it is increasingly important for investors to conduct due diligence, verify token ownership structures, and consider the broader implications of their investment choices. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Key takeaways In 2025, Polkadot might reach a maximum price value of $5.91 and an average value of $5.30. In 2028, the DOT price can reach a maximum price of $19.30 with an average of $16.75. The price of Polkadot is predicted to reach a maximum value of $61.24 in 2031. Polkadot (DOT) has shown impressive growth and resilience in a volatile cryptocurrency market, supported by its strong multichain protocol architecture and investor confidence. A major contributor to this success is the Sinai Upgrade on its Acala Network, enhancing functionality and security. With over 32 million transactions validated in October 2024 by the Polkadot Relay Chain, the network demonstrates significant activity and utility. A notable increase in unique wallets further signals growing user adoption and engagement, strengthening Polkadot’s position as a leading blockchain platform. Will DOT reach new heights soon? Let’s get into the Polkadot price prediction for 2025-2031. Overview Cryptocurrency Polkadot Token DOT Price $4.48 (+0.49%) Market Cap $7.08 Billion Trading Volume $200.27 Million Circulating Supply 1.58B DOT All-time High $55.00 Nov 4, 2021 All-time Low $2.69 Aug 19, 2020 24-hour High $4.61 24-hour Low $4.36 Polkadot price prediction: Technical analysis Volatility 8.64% 50-Day SMA $4.25 14-Day RSI 48.32 Sentiment Neutral Fear & Greed Index 73 (Greed) Green Days 15/30 (50%) 200-Day SMA $4.78 Polkadot price analysis: DOT faces bearish domination around $4 Downtrend persists. DOT stays in a bearish pattern, with repeated tests of support and resistance levels showing continued seller control. Price pressure tightens resistance at $4.22, holds firm, while $3.91 is tested repeatedly, increasing the risk of a breakdown. Buyers’ weak recovery efforts have failed to regain momentum, leaving DOT near its session low and signaling hesitation to reverse the trend. Polkadot (DOT) is currently priced at $3.96, reflecting a 5.78% drop on May 31, 2025. The daily session opened with sharp declines, driven by increased selling pressure. The intraday low reached $3.91, while the high was capped at $4.22. The current price action signals a prevailing bearish sentiment with sellers dominating the market. DOT’s all-time high stands at $55.00 from November 4, 2021, and its all-time low is $2.69, set on August 20, 2020. This marks a steep 92.76% decline from its peak but a 47.86% rise from its historical low. Polkadot on 1-day chart: DOT has a persistent downtrend and bearish momentum DOT established a downtrend during the daily timeframe that persisted through May. The chart shows multiple failed attempts to break above $4.20, leading to further declines. The daily candlesticks exhibit strong bearish control, with long upper wicks and solid red bodies. Sellers are aggressively pushing prices lower, leaving limited room for recovery within the daily session. DOT/USDT Chart: 1-day Volume patterns indicate a substantial increase in sell-side activity, while the RSI trends toward oversold conditions. The MACD shows a clear bearish crossover, with the signal line crossing below the MACD line, suggesting sustained downward momentum. If $3.91 breaks, DOT could slide further. However, if buyers manage to reclaim $4.22, a potential reversal may occur. Polkadot on 4-hour chart: DOT consolidation with strong resistance and weak support The 4-hour chart reveals a clear pattern of lower highs and lower lows, confirming the bearish market structure. DOT’s resistance at $4.22 has held firm, preventing any upward move. Sellers have consistently rejected breakout attempts, with price levels returning toward support at $3.91. DOT/USDT Chart: 4-hour The RSI is below 30, indicating ongoing pressure. The MACD remains negative, with both lines diverging downward. If $3.91 is broken decisively, DOT could face deeper declines, with the next key support below. A breakout above $4.22 could signal an intraday reversal, but current momentum suggests this is unlikely without a shift in volume. Polkadot technical indicators: Levels and action Daily simple moving average (SMA) Period Value ($) Action SMA 3 $4.62 BUY SMA 5 $4.93 SELL SMA 10 $4.78 SELL SMA 21 $4.47 BUY SMA 50 $4.13 BUY SMA 100 $4.42 BUY SMA 200 $4.9 SELL Daily exponential moving average (EMA) Period Value ($) Action EMA 3 $4.35 BUY EMA 5 $4.17 BUY EMA 10 $4.07 BUY EMA 21 $4.13 BUY EMA 50 $4.44 BUY EMA 100 $4.95 SELL EMA 200 $5.4 SELL What to expect next? Polkadot’s (DOT) price remains under pressure as it consolidates between resistance at $4.22 and support at $3.91. If sellers continue to dominate and the $3.91 support breaks decisively, DOT may head lower toward the next key support, intensifying the bearish trend. However, a sudden reversal above $4.22 could shift sentiment, opening the way for a potential short-term recovery. The overall market mood for DOT appears bearish, with traders watching for either a breakdown or a rebound from these critical levels. Until a clear breakout occurs, consolidation with a downward bias is likely to persist. Is Polkadot a good investment? Currently, Polkadot (DOT) faces intense downward pressure, with technicals pointing to a prevailing bearish trend. Resistance at $4.22 and repeated testing of $3.91 support suggest limited upward momentum and heightened risk of further declines. The long-term potential of DOT depends on broader market recovery and the network’s continued development. However, the current price action and market structure indicate caution for new entries until an apparent reversal or strong support is confirmed. Traders should monitor key levels closely for signs of stabilization or further breakdown. Why is Polkadot down today Polkadot (DOT) is down 5.78% today, trading at $3.96, due to sustained selling pressure in the broader market and persistent bearish sentiment. The resistance at $4.22 has prevented any significant upward move, while repeated tests of the $3.91 support level have signaled market hesitation and vulnerability to further declines. Will Polkadot recover? Polkadot (DOT) shows signs of recovery with a recent upward trend. If favorable market conditions continue, we could see a bullish trend, and Polkadot has the potential to recover.

In January 2024, Polkadot’s price remained relatively stable, trading around the $5–$6 range. By July 2024, Polkadot showed slight signs of recovery, with its price rising to around $7–$8.

As crypto investors position themselves for the next market breakout two standout names are commanding attention. These are Shiba Inu (SHIB) with whispers of another potential 16,290% rally and Mutuum Finance (MUTM) a rising altcoin challenging legacy tokens with aggressive growth momentum. Mutuum Finance is emerging as the best altcoin to invest in now, drawing eyes with its low entry point and high-return projections. The project is in phase 5 of its presale priced at $0.03. Mutuum Finance’s presale surges past $9.4 million with over 11,500 investors already onboard. As Mutuum Finance enters Phase 6, the price will jump 16.67% to $0.035. As the market shifts and investors weigh what cryptocurrency to buy now, this matchup between legacy hype and fresh innovation may define which portfolios outperform in 2025. Shiba Inu (SHIB) Eyes Upside as Burn Rate and Community Fuel Momentum Shiba Inu (SHIB) is trading at $0.000014, with minimal downward action but resolute within the broader market consolidation context. Overall, all things considered, SHIB continues to gain speculative attention in spite of recent price stasis owing to its continuous burn programs, this week’s 41 million token burn among them, aimed at reducing circulating supply and enhancing scarcity. With long-term forecasts pointing to potential moves towards $0.0001, several analysts are forecasting over 600% returns are within reach in a healthy bull cycle. With SHIB building increasing utility via its Shibarium Layer-2 network and being well-supported by its community, it is a top pick among meme-based investments. In the meantime, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is also attracting investor attention for its low-cap growth potential ahead of the next cycle. Transforming DeFi Lending with a Hybrid Model Mutuum Finance is revolutionizing decentralized lending by merging both Peer-to-Contract (P2C) and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) models. The P2C model allows users to lock stablecoins like USDT in liquidity pools backed by smart contracts, receiving passive income while making it easy for borrowers to borrow money easily. Meanwhile, the P2P model eliminates middlemen, allowing lenders and borrowers to directly negotiate with each other. Mutuum Finance stablecoin will launch on the Ethereum blockchain, fully collateralized and USD-pegged. The stablecoin is built not to fall to the collapse risk of its algorithmic counterparts. This transparent and secure architecture, supported by open-source smart contracts and now formally attested through the completion of a Certik audit, guarantees healthy financial transactions. With the intersection of next-generation lending technology and robust infrastructure, Mutuum Finance is reshaping the future of decentralized finance.
