In the following article, we take a closer look at five altcoins that are set to explode according to none other but ChatGPT’s insight. Beyond its reasoning, though, we will also see their current price performance and try to determine if there’s any merit into its logic. Altcoins vs. Bitcoin: a Neverending Battle Bitcoin has always been considered the go-to cryptocurrency to invest in for people looking for long-term exposure to the industry. Why? Well, it’s considered to be the safest, despite its considerable volatility compared to traditional financial markets. But it’s also true that Bitcoin’s price is currently above $90,000 and it’s hard to imagine a growth of, let’s say, 10-15x in the next couple of years, at least according to most of the analysts out there. Traditionally, those seeking riskier (and therefore, potentially more opportunistic) investments have been turning to the far more volatile market of altcoins. That’s why today we decided to ask ChatGPT about its take on the 5 altcoins set to explode before Bitcoin marks another move up. And it’s answer was… interesting. Ethereum (ETH): “The Unstoppable Ecosystem” According to the AI model, ETH is the first prime candidate for major gains before the next Bitcoin bull run. “Ethereum may be the second-largest crypto, but it’s still considered an altcoin – and its potential remains massive. With the continued rollout of Ethereum 2.0 upgrades, reduced gas fees, and rising institutional interest, ETH is positioned to ride the next wave. Experts see Ethereum’s dominance in DeFi, NFTs, and tokenization only expanding.” That’s an interesting take, although I can’t help but feel it’s kind of outdated. First things first, Vitalik Buterin did outline his vision for the project in 2025 and the focus is on L1s, Blobs, and UX improvements. Furthermore, he just said that he wants to make Ethereum as simple as Bitcoin for long-term success, resilience, and scalability. It’s no secret that ETH has been one of the most disappointing altcoins this cycle and that its value against BTC has gone down exclusively since September 2022. Source: TradingView Ethereum has faced constant criticism and numerous challenges that the team is currently trying to solve. The NFTs that were so popular a few years back are largely dead or at the very least heavily depreciated and the market sentiment toward them is nowhere near where it was. As for Ethereum’s dominance in DeFi, competing protocols like Solana, SUI, the Binance BNB Chain, and many, many more, are slowly chipping away at what was once the unquestionable king of DeFi. Solana (SOL): “Speed, Scale, and Killer Apps” Second on ChatGPT’s list is Solana, which seems more reasonable, given the massive gains it was able to chart in 2024. Source: TradingView As seen in the SOL/BTC long-term chart, the altcoin was able to perform a lot better than ETH and pretty much did better than BTC in 2024. It’s been all downhill in 2025, though. According to the AI chatbot: Solana’s lighting-fast transaction speeds and low costs have made it a favorite for developers launching DeFi apps, NFT platforms, and GameFi projects. After recovering from previous network setbacks, SOL has shown resilience and a committed ecosystem – making it one to watch as Bitcoin drags the market upwards. All of the above is true, but it seems that ChatGPT is missing the crux of last year’s leg up – meme coin and to be even more precise – meme coin “presales” through pump.fun. It’s perhaps safe to say that Solana’s success in 2024 is largely due to the massive hype behind them. Hell, even the president of the US launched his own token. But now that meme coins have been revealed for what the large majority of them indeed is – money-grabs, scams, and downright frauds, the market has cooled down. And so has Solana. Will it outperform Bitcoin if meme coins are out of breath? Arbitrum (ARB): “Leading the Layer 2 Charge” Let’s kick this off by saying that ARB is currently trading more or less at an all-time low against BTC. Source: TradingView Similarly to SOL, it had a good time in 2024, but that’s gone now. Data from DeFi Llama shows that current total value locked in Arbitrum is around $11 billion, which is definitely a lot, but when compared to Ethereum’s $365B – it pales. It’s not even in the top 5 . But let’s see what ChatGPT has to say about it: As Ethereum’s leading Layer 2 scaling solution, Arbitrum offers faster, cheaper transactions while tapping into Ethereum’s massive liquidity. With growing adoption by dApps and decentralized exchanges, ARB could surge as demand for Layer 2 solution explodes during a bull cycle. Chainlink (LINK): “The Oracle Powerhouse” Next up – the favorite project of thousands of people, especially those of you who are here since before the last cycle – Chainlink (LINK). Source: TradingView Chainlink is an integral part of decentralized finance and it has been one for quite a while now. As you can see, market cycles are definitely impacting its price and it is outperforming Bitcoin during certain periods. Chainlink is an oracle provider. You can think of oracles as the delivery men of outside information for every blockchain. See, blockchains can’t communicate with systems outside of them – they can’t get real-time information on prices on exchanges, for example. That’s where the oracles come in – they “bring” this information to the blockchain, so that it can operate in real-time and accurately. Every decentralized system needs an oracle and that’s why the bullish case for Chainlink has been so strong and its sentiment so positive throughout multiple market cycles. Here’s what ChatGPT had to say about it: Chainlink’s decentralized oracle network is critical for connecting smart contracts to real-world data — and it’s only becoming more important as DeFi, RWAs (real-world assets), and cross-chain solutions grow. LINK has been quietly building partnerships across the crypto space, and many believe it’s undervalued heading into the next cycle. Injective (INJ): “The DeFi Underdog” And last but not least, we have INJ. Source: TradingView According to ChatGPT: Injective has emerged as a powerful decentralized trading platform offering cross-chain derivatives, spot trading, and more. With a focus on scalability and new product launches, INJ has quietly gained a loyal following. Analysts argue that during the next bull run, Injective could surprise the market with significant price action. As seen in the chart above, INJ had an incredibly strong year in 2024 and it has shown that it is capable of outperforming BTC. This momentum, however, seems far gone and it’s interesting to see of ChatGPT will be correct about this one. Conclusion It’s really interesting that ChatGPT doesn’t pick low-cap altcoins to make massive gains in 2025, given that they are typically a lot more volatiley in comparison to their counterparts. One thing that is clear, though, is that on a long enough time scale, Bitcoin is the undoubted king and everything is trending toward zero against it.

During a recent lengthy interview with NBC News’ Kristen Welker, US President Donald Trump said he hadn’t even looked at what is happening with the meme coin launched by his team just ahead of his inauguration. He claimed that he hadn’t profited in any form from it, but there are multiple reports that the team had transferred substantial quantities of the token to centralized exchanges in recent weeks, most likely to sell. No Profits, Says Trump Just a few days before he officially became the 47th US president in mid-January, Trump’s team broke the Internet by launching a meme coin dubbed Official Trump (TRUMP). In mere hours, it became a global sensation, with its price skyrocketing past $70. Its market cap flew as well, and TRUMP became the third-largest meme coin within a day of its launch. However, the subsequent release of a Melania token, as well as his controversial first 100 days in office, led to a somewhat expected crash. TRUMP dropped from over $70 to under $8 by mid-April when the team behind it announced on the official website that the top 220 holders would have a chance to attend a special dinner with the POTUS in one of his golf establishments in DC. Naturally, people rushed to buy the asset, pushing its price north by almost 100% within a few days. Despite this massive volatility, price increases (and crashes), and a multi-billion dollar market cap, Trump claimed in his interview with Welker that he is “not profiting from anything.” On a follow-up question, “So you’re not profiting off of the cryptocurrency at all,” Trump said: “I haven’t even looked. If I own stock in something, and I do a good job, and the stock market goes up, I guess I’m profiting,” he answered . Isn’t He, Though? Blockchain is an interesting niche as it offers full transparency, and all transactions are visible to the public. As such, it’s intriguing to explore a few reports suggesting that the TRUMP meme coin team deposited large quantities of the asset to centralized exchanges just as its price shot up after the dinner announcement. Similar on-chain information surfaced even after the token’s launch in January. Consequently, it’s no wonder that numerous Democrats have requested an investigation into the president and his team regarding the controversial meme coin(s).

The government of the Maldives has partnered with Dubai-based firm MBS Global Investments to fund a $9 billion crypto hub in Malé, the capital of the Maldives. The Islander nation, which exists off the coast of India, wishes to seek direct investment from blockchain and web3 industry workers, as a way to diversify away from the predominant markets of fishing and tourism. MBS Global Investments has produced an impressive vision for the island nation, with a new International Financial Centre, which is 830,000 square feet and will employ 16,000 individuals. Nadeem Hussain, MBS’s chief executive, said that the firm had already secured between $4 billion and $5 billion to make sure the project was off to a good start. Hussain said the necessary partners and family networks had been secured to organise the project. MBS Global Investments is a family-run business and organises itself through a global network of family members and trusted partners. Hussain says that the crypto centre will be financed by a mix of capital and debt, organised by MBS. India recently bailed out Maldives with a $760 million to prevent the country from going into default. Sheikh Nayef bin Eid Al Thani, a Qatari national, will back the project by connecting his network of family members and investors. He will be essential to sourcing the remaining funds to finance the crypto centre. Moody’s Ratings has flagged serious debt problems with the nation of Maldives, indicating a $700 million debt for 2025, and a $1 billion debt for 2026. The crypto project is impressive, with a 3,500 capacity conference centre, three residential buildings, and office space. The residents will have access to various banking facilities and multiple currencies. The Maldives is making an impressive attempt to turn its debt crisis around and revitalise its economy with blockchain innovation. The Maldives Finance Minister, Moosa Zameer, believes the blockchain project could prevent the country from slipping into a financial crisis. The investment could be one of the most prominent crypto projects in Asia. Zameer is optimistic about the investment and is confident that blockchain technology offers many opportunities for future generations. The Maldives government believes that blockchain technology could turn the country’s economy around, bringing in more jobs and tripling the country’s GDP within four years. The Maldives International Financial Centre aims to comply with environmental standards to promote ecology and climate awareness. The architectural design, influencing Dubai-based visionaries, will have the structures necessary to conserve electricity and minimise environmental impact as much as possible. Public transportation will be built underground to make the space above ground pedestrian-friendly. The surrounding grounds of the Financial Centre will be built to offer residents and families a relaxing environment so they can live a holistic lifestyle, with supporting facilities, running tracks, and green areas for fresh, clean air. The Financial Centre will further attempt to build cultural and residential areas so that there are enough activities for people to engage in, making the complex a sustainable living environment.
Following the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, ETF applications were made for many altcoins such as XRP, Solana (SOL) and Litecoin (LTC), while the last move came for Binance Coin (BNB), which is among the largest altcoins. Accordingly, VanEck has officially filed an application for a spot BNB ETF. VanEck previously filed a spot BNB ETF in the US state of Delaware on April 2. This could potentially be the first BNB ETF in the US. The move marks VanEck’s continued push into crypto ETFs, having previously filed for similar funds tracking Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX). Related News: Preparations for the Long-Awaited Altcoin ETF Have Begun in the US! "First Application Made!"

Key takeaways: Bitcoin failed to break the $98,000 resistance amid increased profit-taking. BTC price needs to close above $95,000 on the daily chart for a push to $100,000. Bitcoin’s ( BTC ) price failed to break above resistance at $98,000 on May 3. Since April 22, BTC prices have formed daily candle highs between $93,000 and $97,900, but they could not close above $97,440. BTC/USD four-hour chart. Source: Cointelegraph/ TradingView Bitcoin price action has been choppy and within a narrow range for the past few days. With elevated profit-taking and a lot of supply in profit, markets could see volatile price swings toward key BTC price levels over the next few days. Realized profits above “statistical levels” Senior researcher at Glassnode, CryptoVizArt.₿, said that Bitcoin’s rally to the $93,000-96,000 range has “pushed the profit-taking volume above the statistical levels.” In other words, the Realized Profit/Loss ratio shows that the volume of Bitcoin being sold at a profit exceeds historical norms. This suggests heightened selling activity by investors locking in gains, often signaling potential market tops and increased sell-side pressure. The chart below indicates that “for every dollar realized in loss, more than 9 dollars was realized in profit!” CryptoVizArt.₿ explained, adding: “The fact that the price is still above $93,000 is very surprising, which in my humble opinion is also risky.” Bitcoin realized profit/loss ratio. Source: Glassnode As reported by Cointelegraph , BTC selling has been ramping up near the $95,000 level over the past few days as short-term traders book profits. Crypto analyst Checkmate said that Bitcoin’s current market is at a key “decision point,” so Bitcoin must clear this price zone in the near term to avoid another major correction. Related: Bitcoin price cools going into Fed rate hike week, HYPE, AAVE, RNDR, FET still look bullish Bitcoin’s supply in profit now stands at 86%, as per data from Glassnode. This high percentage often signals a bullish phase . However, it also indicates potential risks: when supply in profit exceeds 80-90%, historical patterns show increased profit-taking, particularly by short-term holders, which can lead to corrections.

But first, the BTC/USD pair must close above $95,000 on the daily chart. BTC's price dropped below this level on May 4, driven by profit-taking after the rally to $97,000 . BTC/USD daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/ TradingView One positive catalyst for the bulls could be continued demand from spot Bitcoin ETFs. Bitcoin ETFs registered $1.8 billion in net inflows last week, per Farside Investors' data. Another catalyst could come from Wednesday's Fed interest rate decision meeting . Meanwhile, the bears will attempt to keep the $98,000 resistance in place to increase the likelihood of pulling the price below $92,000. The immediate target below the previous range lows is at $90,000, i.e., the convergence point of the 100-day and 200-day SMAs. Below $90,000, the next key area of interest remains between $85,000 and $75,000. Reaching $75,000 would erase all the gains after the 90-day tariff pause .

Hey crypto enthusiasts! Ever wondered why the price of a token suddenly dips or gets volatile even when the broader market seems stable? Often, the answer lies in something called a token unlock . These scheduled events can significantly impact a token’s circulating supply and, consequently, its market dynamics. This week is no exception, with several notable crypto unlocks on the horizon that you should definitely be aware of. What Exactly Are Token Unlocks and Why Do They Matter for Crypto Market News? Think of a token unlock as the opposite of a lock-up period. When a cryptocurrency project launches, a large portion of its tokens is typically allocated to founders, the team, advisors, private investors, and for ecosystem development. To prevent these large holders from dumping all their tokens onto the market at once – which would crash the price – these tokens are usually locked up for a set period, often released gradually according to a predetermined crypto vesting schedule. When a token unlock occurs, a certain amount of these previously locked tokens becomes available to their holders. This matters for several key reasons, making it crucial information for anyone following crypto market news : Increased Selling Pressure: Holders who receive unlocked tokens, especially early investors or team members, might choose to sell some or all of their allocation to realize profits or cover operational costs. This influx of tokens hitting exchanges can increase selling pressure. Supply Inflation: Unlocks increase the circulating supply of a token. Basic economics tells us that if demand remains constant while supply increases, the price tends to decrease. Market Sentiment: Large, upcoming unlocks can create anticipation and sometimes fear (FUD) in the market, influencing trader behavior even before the unlock happens. Opportunity: Conversely, if the market anticipates selling pressure and the price dips, it could present a buying opportunity for those bullish on the project’s long-term prospects. Navigating the Impact: What to Consider with Crypto Unlocks Not all crypto unlocks are created equal. Their potential impact depends heavily on several factors: Amount Unlocked: How many tokens are being released? A unlock of 1 million tokens is less impactful than 1 billion. Percentage of Circulating Supply: This is arguably the most critical factor. Unlocking 1% of the current circulating supply will likely have minimal impact, whereas unlocking 10% or 20% could significantly move the market. Value of Unlocked Tokens: The total USD value provides context for the scale of potential selling pressure. A $1 million unlock is different from a $100 million unlock. Recipient of Unlocks: Who is receiving the tokens? Tokens unlocked for the team or early investors might be more likely to be sold than tokens unlocked for ecosystem grants or staking rewards. Market Conditions: The overall sentiment of the broader crypto market plays a huge role. In a bull market, unlock selling pressure might be quickly absorbed. In a bear market, it could exacerbate downward trends. Project Fundamentals: A strong project with active development, adoption, and positive news is better positioned to absorb unlock selling pressure than a project struggling to find its footing. This Week’s Significant Token Unlocks: Data You Need According to data from DropsTab, several notable tokens are scheduled for unlocks this week. Keeping an eye on these dates and amounts is key for staying ahead in crypto market news and potentially navigating volatility. Here’s a look at the major ones: Token Amount Unlocked Approximate USD Value Percentage of Circulating Supply Unlock Time (UTC) AIXBT 72.93 million $12.39 million 8.52% 06:00 on May 6 ACH 83.89 million $2.11 million 0.93% 12:00 on May 7 MOVE 50.85 million $8.61 million 2.03% 00:00 on May 9 CHEEL 8.34 million $53.99 million 14.69% 09:00 on May 10 Note: USD values are approximate and based on the token’s price at the time the data was compiled. Actual values at the time of unlock may vary significantly due to market fluctuations. Analyzing This Week’s Token Unlock Data: What Stands Out? Looking at the table, several points are worth noting: While ACH and MOVE have unlocks this week, the percentage of their circulating supply being unlocked (0.93% and 2.03% respectively) is relatively low. The potential impact on their prices might be less significant compared to larger percentage unlocks, assuming other factors remain constant. AIXBT’s unlock represents a more substantial 8.52% of its circulating supply. This percentage is significant enough that it could potentially introduce notable selling pressure, depending on who receives the tokens and their intentions. CHEEL has the highest percentage unlock this week at 14.69%, and it also represents the largest approximate USD value ($53.99 million). An unlock of this magnitude could have a more pronounced effect on the token’s price due to the large influx of tokens entering circulation. Investors holding or looking to buy CHEEL around May 10th should pay close attention to market reactions. Understanding these nuances is part of staying informed on Altcoin news and managing your portfolio effectively. Strategies for Investors During Token Unlocks: Your Actionable Insights How should you approach periods with significant crypto vesting events? Here are a few actionable insights: Do Your Research: Don’t just look at the unlock data. Research the specific token: who is receiving the unlock? What are the project’s recent developments? Is there positive news that could counteract selling pressure? Monitor Price Action: Observe how the token’s price behaves leading up to, during, and immediately after the unlock. Is the market already pricing in the unlock? Does the price dip post-unlock? Consider Your Investment Horizon: If you are a long-term holder bullish on the project’s future, a temporary dip due to unlocks might be seen as a buying opportunity rather than a reason to sell. Manage Risk: If you are concerned about potential volatility, consider reducing your position size or setting stop-loss orders. Avoid going all-in just before a large unlock. Diversify: Don’t let the potential impact of one token unlock overly influence your entire portfolio. The Bigger Picture: Token Unlocks and Your Crypto Vesting Strategy Tracking token unlock schedules should be a regular part of your research, especially if you invest in smaller or newer altcoins. While not every unlock leads to a price crash, ignoring them means missing a key factor that influences supply and demand dynamics. It’s about understanding the mechanics of the market and making informed decisions based on data, not just speculation. Conclusion: Stay Informed, Stay Prepared This week presents several scheduled crypto unlocks , with AIXBT and particularly CHEEL showing unlocks that represent a notable percentage of their current circulating supply. While the provided data gives us a snapshot, the actual market impact will depend on a confluence of factors, including overall market sentiment and the actions of the token recipients. By understanding what crypto vesting is, why unlocks occur, and how to interpret the data, you can better anticipate potential market movements and make more informed investment decisions. Always combine unlock data with thorough research into the project’s fundamentals and broader Altcoin news .

The post Bitcoin Solaris Launches Hybrid Mining Solution That Combines Elements of XRP and Ethereum appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Ethereum pioneered on-chain smart contracts. XRP prioritized transaction speed with validator networks. Bitcoin Solaris brings the strongest parts of both together — and then takes it further. At the center of this shift is the Helios Consensus Mechanism (HCM), a multi-layered mining framework that combines Proof of Stake, Proof of History, Proof of Time, and Proof of Capacity. Designed to work across both lightweight and high-performance devices, HCM powers the dual-layer blockchain of Bitcoin Solaris — unlocking real decentralization, fast throughput, and broad user participation in a way neither XRP nor Ethereum ever managed. A Dual-Layer Blockchain Built for Scale The system runs across two operational layers. The Base Layer processes core transactions and maintains the primary ledger. Above it, the Solaris Layer manages smart contracts, dApps, and staking. Together, these layers split consensus tasks and give users multiple ways to participate. With HCM, mining supports both chains. Miners contribute to base security, smart contract execution, transaction ordering, and data propagation all at once. This dual participation allows Bitcoin Solaris to scale while staying secure. Where Ethereum phased out mining and XRP restricted validation to a small number of approved nodes, Bitcoin Solaris goes the opposite direction. The network’s architecture enables participation from everyday smartphones all the way up to data centers. Using the Solaris Nova App, mobile users can mine by contributing unused storage and idle CPU cycles. On a phone, this means light plotting — typically between one and five gigabytes — and background validation work that’s optimized for battery preservation. On desktops, miners gain more flexibility. Users can assign more storage — up to 100 GB for plotting — and process both Base Layer validations and smart contract execution on the Solaris Layer. With enough resources, a personal computer can run as a full node and help secure the blockchain’s full history. At the top end of the spectrum, specialized mining rigs and enterprise nodes can create multi-terabyte plots, run archive services, and act as supernodes that accelerate data across the network. Energy-Efficient by Design One of the standout features is the energy profile. Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work systems that burn energy continuously, Bitcoin Solaris focuses energy usage during the plotting phase. Once capacity is allocated, maintenance mining draws very little power. This makes it feasible for mobile, edge, and underpowered devices to remain in the ecosystem — without destroying performance or requiring constant supervision. Rewards are split between the two layers, supporting growth on both fronts. The Base Layer receives approximately 70% of each block reward, incentivizing core validation and ledger integrity. The Solaris Layer receives 30%, driving execution of contracts, dApps, and other programmable operations. This balance ensures no part of the chain is neglected, and that the entire ecosystem continues to scale efficiently. Security Is a Must The project is fully audited. Smart contracts, staking logic, and mining structures have been reviewed by independent firms including Cyberscope and Freshcoins . The team is also KYC verified , reinforcing public accountability. To see the system in action — from Nova App mobile mining to desktop participation — check out the walkthrough from Crypto Chino . The Bitcoin Solaris Presale Is Live The price per BTC-S is now 2 USDT as Bitcoin Solaris enters Presale Phase 2. With only 4.2 million tokens available across all phases, supply is limited and moving fast. Phase 1 buyers already secured tokens at half this price. If you’re planning to enter, this may be the last opportunity before public listing. How to Join 1 — Visit bitcoinsolaris.com Head to the official website for presale access and full ecosystem documentation. Use only the verified domain to protect against phishing. 2 — Connect a Solana-Compatible Wallet Bitcoin Solaris runs on the Solana ecosystem. Wallets like Phantom and Solflare are recommended and fully supported by the dashboard. 3 — Purchase BTC-S at 2 USDT per Token During the presale, all tokens are sold at a fixed rate. Complete your purchase and receive tokens directly into your connected wallet. 4 — Stay Plugged In For ongoing updates, validator opportunities, and technical support, follow the community on X and Telegram Bitcoin Solaris doesn’t imitate other networks — it reinvents the model. By combining smart contract execution, storage-based mining, real-time transaction ordering, and broad accessibility, it builds a system where everyday users and institutional-grade operators can contribute on equal footing.

The post VanEck’s BNB ETF Filing Could Bring Binance Coin to U.S. Stock Markets appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News The ETF race just got hotter. VanEck has officially filed an S-1 with the U.S. SEC to launch a Binance Coin (BNB) ETF – a move that could crack open new doors for BNB, Binance, and the broader crypto market. This filing follows VanEck’s earlier registration of the fund in Delaware back in April, but the S-1 is where things get real. It kicks off the formal review process and puts BNB one step closer to being listed on major U.S. exchanges. Here’s all the deets for you. A Big Win for Binance? Liquidity, Legitimacy, and Reach If approved, this ETF could be a lifeline for Binance – especially as it continues navigating a rocky regulatory landscape in the U.S. An exchange-traded fund brings liquidity from traditional markets, drawing in institutional players, retirement funds, and everyday investors who might otherwise steer clear of crypto exchanges. More liquidity means a more stable market for BNB. Less volatility. More adoption. And more credibility for Binance at a time when it needs it most. It also plants a flag for Binance in the U.S., at a time when whispers of a comeback are already swirling according to the World Liberty Financial, including a reported potential deal with a Trump-linked firm and moves to seek a presidential pardon for CEO Changpeng Zhao. BNB ETF = A Boost for the BNB Chain Ecosystem BNB powers the entire BNB Chain – home to DeFi apps, smart contracts, and thousands of builders. A flood of new investment via an ETF could breathe serious life into the ecosystem, drawing developers and users back in and giving Binance an even stronger foothold as a crypto leader. VanEck’s Not Slowing Down Just three weeks ago, Nasdaq filed a 19b-4 for a VanEck Avalanche (AVAX) ETF. The asset manager – already behind successful Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF launches – is clearly making a statement: crypto ETFs are here to stay, and BNB is next in line. The Bigger Picture: Crypto Inches Deeper into Wall Street Crypto ETFs are pushing digital assets into the mainstream, one filing at a time. And BNB might just be the next major player to cross that threshold.
