While three-day festivals usually fade into a cacophony of activity, this one distilled a single, important message: discussions have moved beyond questions of legitimacy. Governments, regulators, and others are now engaged in the conversation.

Although this marks a 3.9% drop from its highest level, the broader monthly trend remains positive, with BTC still recording a gain of over 10% in the last 30 days. The market, however, has shifted its attention from price movement to on-chain dynamics, particularly the behavior of new and long-term holders. Related Reading: Bitcoin Surges With Low Retail Interest – Is A Second Wave Coming? Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Selling, New Entrants Still Cautious On-chain analyst Avocado Onchain, writing on CryptoQuant’s QuickTake platform, examined Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) data to assess investor trends during this stage of the cycle. In a post titled “UTXO Age Band Analysis: Sluggish Inflow of New Investors May Limit Bitcoin’s Upside,” he explored whether BTC’s continued rally can be sustained without fresh capital inflows from newer market participants. His findings suggest that while older coins are being sold, the inflow of newer investors remains low, a factor that has historically limited momentum in previous cycles. The UTXO age distribution reveals that a significant portion of the BTC supply remains with holders who have kept their assets for over six months. The 6–12 month age band has increased, suggesting a large share of market participants still fall into the mid- to long-term holding category. Historically, when the proportion of these holders started to shrink, it often preceded major tops in Bitcoin’s price cycle, driven by a transition of coins from long-term to new investors. However, despite Bitcoin reaching new highs, the percentage of UTXOs held by investors with a holding period of less than one month remains well below the historical threshold seen near previous market tops. During earlier bull cycles, new investor participation often surged past 50%. Currently, that figure sits around 20%, even lower than the peak levels during this recent rally. Avocado Onchain warns that without a notable increase in participation from newer investors, the market may struggle to maintain upward momentum. Large Holders Accumulate as Retail Stays on Sidelines While retail inflows appear to be lacking, large-scale accumulation is continuing in the background. A recent update from CryptoQuant on X highlighted that Bitcoin addresses holding between 1,000 and 10,000 BTC, excluding exchanges and miners, have been steadily increasing. Large holders are accumulating. Addresses holding 1K–10K BTC (excl. exchanges & miners) are rising, a sign of growing investor confidence.

Im Zuge des US Präsidentschaftswahlkampfs hat sich Donald Trump ganz klar auf die Seite der Krypto-B...Im Zuge des US Präsidentschaftswahlkampfs hat sich Donald Trump ganz klar auf die Seite der Krypto-Befürworter gestellt. Schnell kam er mit der Idee der Bitcoin Reserve – man wolle zudem die USA zur Hauptstadt des Bitcoin machen. Als dann die ersten Details zur geplanten Reserve nach seiner Wahl präsentiert wurden, war die Krypto-Branche aber sichtlich enttäuscht: Trump hat einen Plan präsentiert, der nicht ganz so klang, wie das noch im Wahlkampf posaunt wurde. Trumps erster Plan zur Bitcoin Reserve Als Donald Trump am 6. März die U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve per Dekret angeordnet hat, wurde auf den Weg gegeben, dass nur die von den US Behörden konfiszierten Coins aus Straf- oder Zivilverfahren veranlagt werden sollen. Trump betonte, ein aktives Zukaufen werde es nicht geben, weil man die Amerikaner nicht belasten wolle. Wenn man Bitcoin kaufen will, dann nur haushaltsneutral, also ohne die Staatsbürger zu belasten. Im Rahmen der aktuellen Bitcoin Konferenz in Las Vegas gab es nun erste Details, dass dieser Plan nun doch in eine andere Richtung gehen könnte. So wurden Finanzminister Scott Bessent und Handelsminister Howard Lutnick bereits von Trump persönlich informiert, man solle haushaltsneutrale Strategien schaffen, damit Bitcoins zugekauft werden können. Auch David Sacks, der Krypto-Berater von Trump, gab bekannt, dass es nun zu Änderungen bei der Bitcoin Reserve kommen könnte: „Die Executive Order zur Einrichtung der strategischen Bitcoin Reserve erlaubt es der Regierung, mehr zu kaufen, wenn dies haushaltsneutral geschehen kann. Konkret: Wenn wir Howard Lutnik oder Scott Bessent davon überzeugen können, welche zu kaufen, und sie herausfinden können, wie sie es finanzieren, ohne eine neue Steuer oder ohne die Schulden zu erhöhen, dann könnten wir potenziell mehr Bitcoin erwerben.” Von wo will die USA das Geld für Zukäufe bekommen? Welche Möglichkeiten könnte es geben, dass die USA nun aktiv Bitcoin kauft, ohne das Budget zu belasten? Finanzierungsquellen könnten unter anderem überschüssige Gelder aus anderen Regierungsprogrammen sein. Die Analysten der Research Firma K33 haben bereits schon Vorschläge geäußert, welche haushaltsneutrale Strategien möglich seien, um Bitcoins kaufen zu können: Man könnte beispielsweise Sonderziehungsrechten des IWF verkaufen oder mit Überschüssen aus dem Stabilisierungsfonds, der vom Finanzministerium verwaltet wird, Bitcoin kaufen. Auf diesen Wegen könnte man frisches Geld bekommen, ohne dass die Amerikaner belastet würden. „Ich kann nichts versprechen, aber es gibt einen Weg, das zu tun“, so David Sacks. „Die Frage ist nur, können wir entweder das Finanzministerium oder das Handelsministerium dafür begeistern? Denn wenn sie das tun und herausfinden können, wie sie es finanzieren, haben sie tatsächlich die präsidentielle Genehmigung bereits in der Tasche.“ Die Homepage von Bitcoin Bull aufrufen Bitcoin Bull würde ebenfalls von aktiven Zukäufen in die Bitcoin Reserve profitieren Die neuen Pläne, dass man nun eine haushaltsneutrale Stragie erstellen wolle, um Bitcoins zukaufen zu können, freut einerseits jene, die in Bitcoin investiert haben, andererseits auch die Fans von Bitcon Bull, die bereits BTCBULL Token gekauft haben. Denn aktive Zukäufe werden wohl den Preis der Kryptowährung nach oben treiben – hier profitieren jene, die Bitcoin und BTCBULL haben. Bei Bitcoin Bull handelt es sich um ein Projekt im Initial Coin Offering, das sich in erster Linie an der Kryptowährung Bitcoin orientiert. Springt der Preis des Bitcoin auf 125.000 US Dollar, findet der erste Token Burn statt. Durch die Verknappung des Gesamtangebots kann eine Preissteigerung möglich sein, vor allem, wenn die Nachfrage bleibt oder höher wird. Bei 150.000 US Dollar gibt es dann die erste Belohnung für die BTCBULL Investoren. Abhängig von der Menge an BTCBULL Token, die gehalten werden, fällt die Höhe der Belohnung aus. Überspringt der Bitcoin die 175.000 US Dollar, dann folgt der nächste Token Burn, beim Überspringen der 200.000 US Dollar die nächste Belohnung. Überspringt der Bitcoin dann die 225.000 US Dollar-Hürde, gibt es den letzten Token Burn und beim Erreichen der 250.000 US Dollar die letzte Belohnung. Derzeit gibt es BTCBULL Token nur über die Plattform selbst. Erst nach dem Ende des Presales kann BTCBULL auch über offizielle Kryptobörsen gekauft werden.

Bitcoin Selling Pressure Weak As Binance Inflows Stay Subdued – Can BTC Sustain Its Rally?
20 hour agoBitcoin (BTC) continues to trade close to its new all-time high (ATH) of $111,980, set earlier this ...Bitcoin (BTC) continues to trade close to its new all-time high (ATH) of $111,980, set earlier this week. While some argue that the top digital asset may be running out of steam, Binance exchange flow data suggests that certain investor groups are reluctant to sell their BTC just yet, expecting further upside. Bitcoin Inflows To Binance Suggest Further Upside Possible According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by on-chain analyst Darkfost, analyzing BTC inflows to Binance from both short-term holders (STHs) and long-term holders (LTHs) can offer meaningful insights into selling pressure and its potential impact on price. Related Reading: Bitcoin Eyeing $112,000 After Bullish Double Bottom Breakout, Analyst Says Darkfost noted that STHs tend to be the most reactive and emotionally driven investor group when it comes to market movements. The analyst shared several examples from past market cycles. For instance, during the price correction in August 2024 when BTC dropped from around $69,000 to $53,000, the STH cohort sent more than 12,000 BTC to Binance. Similarly, the group offloaded over 14,000 BTC onto Binance during the tariff-induced panic in early March 2025. However, current behavior differs. Amid the ongoing rally, selling pressure from STHs remains “very moderate,” with only 8,000 BTC sent to Binance so far. LTHs are exhibiting a similar trend. At the 2024 market peak, LTHs deposited 626 BTC to Binance, and 254 BTC before the previous top. In contrast, just 86 BTC have been deposited by LTHs during this current rally. The analyst concluded: Whether we’re talking about STH or LTH, inflows to Binance are not concerning at the moment. However, this should still be considered in the context of current demand, which remains relatively strong for now. Although the demand for BTC remains healthy as of now, some warning signs are starting to emerge. In an X post, noted crypto analyst Ali Martinez offered commentary on Bitcoin’s current range-bound price action, warning that if it drops below the $106,800 support level, a sharp breakdown may follow. No Panic Selling Observed Yet Historically, when BTC hits or approaches a new ATH, it tends to trigger a wave of profit-taking, leading to substantial selling pressure. However, this has not been observed during the current cycle. Related Reading: Bitcoin Rebound Signals Healthier Bull Market Without Overheating, Analyst Says Recent analysis shows that both STH and LTH cohorts are sitting on elevated unrealized profits, yet there are no strong signs of selling. Additionally, exchange withdrawals are on the rise, suggesting that investors may be anticipating further price appreciation. Another bullish indicator is the relatively low level of retail participation in this rally – often a sign that the market hasn’t yet reached euphoric conditions. At press time, BTC trades at $10,503, down 0.3% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from CryptoQuant, X, and TradingView.com

This week, Ethereum (ETH) has reclaimed the $2,600 level as support for the first time since Februar...This week, Ethereum (ETH) has reclaimed the $2,600 level as support for the first time since February, and is attempting to retest key resistance after breaking out of a short-term pattern. Several analysts suggest ETH's rally could target its previous high in the coming weeks. Ethereum's recent behavior mirrors its setup from earlier in 2024. After struggling to surpass $2,600, ETH has now found support at that level. For the past two days, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap has held this crucial support while trying to break above $2,700. Since recovering from its dip below $2,000 earlier this month, ETH has fluctuated between $2,400 and $2,600, failing to reclaim the range's upper zone despite reaching a multi-month high of $2,738 on May 10th. Nevertheless, this week's rally has taken the cryptocurrency above its local range, signaling a potential shift away from its sideways movement and continuation of its 50% recovery rally. Analyst Titan of Crypto noted that ETH's breakout from a two-week bullish flag pattern is driving today's surge to $2,788. He projects that if the breakout is confirmed, the pattern's target is around $3,800. Crypto Jelle pointed out that Ethereum is 'still playing out as expected,' pushing deeper into the resistance zone around $2,850. Several analysts identify this level as resistance before the $3,000 mark and a key obstacle to an 'altseason'. Rekt Capital highlighted Ethereum's successful retesting of a crucial horizontal level since re-entering its $2,220-$3,900 macro range. Importantly, Ethereum has closed above the $2,468 mark for the past four weeks, setting the stage for a 'lift across the range.' This successful retest marks a repeat of early 2024's pattern. Notably, ETH experienced a 50% four-week surge after breaking through and then retesting the $2,486 resistance level. However, 'the only difference is that it's taken longer this time,' the analyst added. Meanwhile, ETH is gaining momentum as its trading pair against Bitcoin (BTC) strengthens, and Bitcoin's dominance seems to be waning. Analyst Ted Pillows noted ETH's weekly MACD bullish crossover and the reclaim of its multi-year support trendline, predicting a potential surge to $4,000 resistance. Ethereum has outperformed Bitcoin this quarter, achieving a 45% increase since April 1, while maintaining its position above key levels despite Bitcoin's dip below $106,800 support. Merlijn The Trader pointed out ETH's price action following its golden cross, mirroring its previous performance from a similar setup in November 2024. During that instance, Ethereum saw a small dip before a 'massive pump' on the eleventh day. 'This time? Pump already started. We're right on schedule,' the trader stated. Currently, Ethereum is trading at $2,642, a 44.7% increase over the past month.

After months of lagging behind BTC, ETH is now making a strong move, with bulls pushing price action toward the critical $2,800 resistance. This level, which has consistently capped upside momentum since early February, now stands as the key battleground for Ethereum’s next major leg. Related Reading: Altseason Loading? Analyst Explains How FTX $5B Distribution May Trigger The Next Bull Leg Market sentiment has shifted as Ethereum shows signs of reclaiming dominance, driven by renewed spot demand and strengthening technicals. Top analyst Ted Pillows has weighed in on the rally, emphasizing the importance of the $2,850 mark. According to Pillows, this is the most significant resistance Ethereum has faced in this cycle, and breaking through it could unlock a powerful move toward $3,000 and beyond. Momentum has been building steadily over the past few weeks, and ETH’s recent resilience against macroeconomic pressure is adding to the conviction. If bulls manage to flip this resistance into support, it could mark the beginning of a broader altcoin surge. For now, all eyes are on Ethereum as it flirts with a breakout that could reshape market dynamics heading into June. Ethereum Eyes Expansion Phase Amid Shifting Global Dynamics Ethereum is positioning itself for a potentially expansive move as both technical indicators and market sentiment continue to align in its favor. After weeks of consolidation and steady gains, ETH is now testing the $2,850 resistance—a level that has held price down since February. The setup suggests that Ethereum is not only regaining momentum but could also lead the next phase of the crypto rally. While the crypto market gains traction, broader macroeconomic forces are reshaping investor behavior. A recent decision by the U.S. Federal court to strike down former President Trump’s tariffs on various countries has created fresh uncertainty across global markets. This policy reversal could introduce volatility in traditional finance, as trade dynamics shift and new fiscal responses take shape. Despite this uncertainty, Ethereum appears to be thriving. There’s a view that crypto assets like ETH could perform well under tight economic conditions, and current price action supports that view. ETH is showing resilience, supported by growing spot demand, a bullish structure, and rising investor confidence. Pillows highlighted in his latest analysis that if Ethereum reclaims the $2,850 level in the coming sessions, the path to $4,000 will open quickly. This would represent a major breakout and likely trigger a wave of capital rotation from Bitcoin and stablecoins into altcoins. For now, ETH remains just below a breakout point. If bulls can push decisively above resistance, it would confirm the start of an expansionary move that could reshape the broader market, positioning Ethereum as a leading force in the next phase of the cycle. Related Reading: Dogecoin Flashes Buy Signal – Key Indicator Hints At Rebound ETH Reclaims Weekly Key Levels Ethereum is showing renewed strength on the weekly chart, currently trading at $2,728.36 after reaching a high of $2,789.50. This move marks a significant recovery from recent lows near $1,600 and confirms the formation of a strong uptrend. ETH has now reclaimed the 34-week EMA at $2,511.42 and is pushing above the 100-week SMA at $2,605.71. These moving averages now act as dynamic support levels, reinforcing bullish sentiment. The next critical level to watch is the 50-week SMA, currently sitting at $2,729.64, just slightly above the current price. A confirmed weekly close above this level would mark the first time ETH has sustained strength above it since late 2023. That could open the door for a push toward the $3,200–$3,600 zone, with $4,000 in sight if momentum accelerates. Volume has also picked up on this recent move, signaling healthy participation from buyers. Historically, similar recoveries from major moving average clusters have preceded expansive legs in Ethereum’s price. Related Reading: Ethereum Nears Critical Price Level – Reclaiming $3,000 Would Spark A Market-Wide Rally As long as ETH maintains this structure and closes the week above $2,700, bulls are likely to retain control.

The price action has energized the market, with many analysts now calling for a major breakout that could not only lift ETH further but also trigger the long-awaited altseason. Related Reading: Altseason Loading? Analyst Explains How FTX $5B Distribution May Trigger The Next Bull Leg While Bitcoin has led the rally for most of the year, Ethereum appears to be catching up. According to top analyst Daan, the ETH spot premium remains firm, signaling sustained demand even in the absence of ETF-level inflows. “It doesn’t have as many ETF inflows as BTC does,” Daan noted. This relative strength, combined with growing optimism around altcoins, is fueling speculation that Ethereum could soon test—and possibly break—critical resistance levels. With sentiment turning bullish across the market and ETH gaining momentum, all eyes are now on whether it can push past key resistance and lead the charge into a broader altcoin breakout. The coming days could prove pivotal as Ethereum sets the tone for the next phase of crypto market expansion. Ethereum Tests Critical Resistance As It Faces A Pivotal Moment Ethereum is now confronting what many analysts consider the most important resistance level of the current cycle. The zone between $2,700 and $2,800 has become the battleground for ETH’s next major move. A successful breakout could trigger a run toward all-time highs, while rejection may lead to a healthy—but deeper—retracement. Global macro conditions are adding weight to this moment. Rising U.S. Treasury yields and persistent inflation continue to rattle traditional markets, increasing systemic stress. Yet, in this uncertain environment, Ethereum and Bitcoin have shown resilience, suggesting that investors are increasingly viewing them as alternatives or hedges against traditional financial risks. Daan shared insights reinforcing this bullish outlook. According to his analysis, the ETH spot premium remains firm despite lacking the ETF-driven inflows seen with Bitcoin. ETH doesn’t require as much inflow relative to its market cap to sustain bullish momentum. However, the $2,800 level remains a significant barrier. It represents a key inflection point for Ethereum’s price action and overall market sentiment. The coming days are crucial, as Ethereum’s ability to either break above or get rejected at this resistance could shape the altcoin market’s direction for the rest of the quarter. Related Reading: Dogecoin Flashes Buy Signal – Key Indicator Hints At Rebound ETH Price Analysis: Testing Key Liquidity Levels Ethereum is currently trading at $2,731 on the 4-hour chart, showing strong bullish momentum as it tests the key $2,800 resistance level. After weeks of consolidation between $2,500 and $2,700, ETH has broken out with conviction, riding higher moving averages and increased volume. The 34 EMA at $2,622 and the 50 SMA at $2,598 continue to act as dynamic support, confirming the strength of the uptrend. This breakout attempt follows a long period of compression, where ETH built a base of higher lows. Price has now surged to challenge a major resistance zone that has historically capped upward momentum. If bulls manage to flip this level into support, it could open the door to a sharp move toward $3,000 and higher. Related Reading: Solana Funding Rates Turn Negative – Early Sign Of Selling Pressure? Volume has picked up on the most recent push, a positive sign that buyers are stepping in with more confidence. Still, traders should watch closely for potential rejection or profit-taking at this key zone. If Ethereum fails to break and hold above $2,800, a short-term pullback toward the 34 EMA could follow.

While it experienced a slight 1.2% decline in the last 24 hours, retreating after briefly exceeding $2,700 last week, it's still up roughly 50% over the past month, signaling strong price strength and significant market interest. Prominent crypto analysts, particularly those at CryptoQuant, are closely monitoring technical indicators and market behavior, suggesting further ETH movement is likely. CryptoQuant analyst Ibrahim Cosar points to a "bull flag" pattern, a chart formation often associated with continued upward momentum after consolidation. Ethereum's price has been oscillating between $2,400 and $2,700 for nearly three weeks, creating conditions for a breakout. Cosar also notes ETH's sustained position above the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), a historically bullish signal, suggesting a potential price rise to between $3,000 and $3,500. Another CryptoQuant analyst, 'elcryptotavo', observes that Ethereum's Open Interest (OI) hasn't yet surpassed Bitcoin's, a signal historically associated with market peaks. Currently, retail trading volume remains relatively low, implying that institutional investors are predominantly driving the current rally. A surge in retail participation, similar to what was seen during the 2020-2021 bull cycle, could further fuel and accelerate Ethereum's upward trend.

ETH is now up over 5% and might attempt to clear the $2,800 resistance. Ethereum started a decent increase above the $2,550 and $2,720 levels. The price is trading near $2,720 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a new connecting bullish trend line forming with support at $2,610 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could extend gains if it clears the $2,800 resistance zone in the near term. Ethereum Price Rallies Over 5% Ethereum price started a fresh increase from the $2,550 support zone, beating Bitcoin. ETH price was able to recover above the $2,620 and $2,650 resistance levels. The price even surpassed the $2,720 level. However, the bears were active near the $2,785 resistance zone. The price is now consolidating gains above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,610 swing low to the $2,787 high. Ethereum price is now trading near $2,720 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a new connecting bullish trend line forming with support at $2,610 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $2,780 level. The next key resistance is near the $2,800 level. The first major resistance is near the $2,7=840 level. A clear move above the $2,840 resistance might send the price toward the $2,880 resistance. An upside break above the $2,800 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,920 resistance zone or even $2,950 in the near term. Downside Correction In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,780 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,700 level. The first major support sits near the $2,650 zone. It is close to the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,610 swing low to the $2,787 high. A clear move below the $2,650 support might push the price toward the $2,610 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,550 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,500.

Key takeaways:97% of ETH put options will expire worthless if ETH holds above $2,600.A bullish ETH p...Key takeaways:97% of ETH put options will expire worthless if ETH holds above $2,600.A bullish ETH price outcome could be limited by macroeconomic factors and trading strategies that cap Ether gains.On May 30, $2.4 billion in Ether (ETH) options will expire—an event that could support ETH’s attempt to break above the $2,700 mark for the first time in over three months. Despite the recent gains, Ether is down 21% in 2025, while the broader cryptocurrency market has seen a 5% increase.Ether bulls are motivated to keep ETH above $2,600 ahead of the monthly expiry. However, weak network activity on Ethereum suggests that the upside potential may be limited.Ether/USD (blue) vs. Total crypto capitalization (green). Source: TradingView / CointelegraphAnalysts believe Ether’s underperformance stems from rising competition among blockchains focused on decentralized applications. Still, ETH holds a key advantage as the only altcoin with a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) offering in the United States. These ETFs attracted $287 million in net inflows between May 19 and May 27, reflecting increased interest from institutional investors.Even as demand for Ether-based investment products grows, deposits and onchain activity on the Ethereum network have declined. This trend is especially troubling as rivals like Solana, BNB Chain, and Tron continue to gain market share. Ethereum no longer ranks among the top ten protocols in terms of fees, creating a supply imbalance that contributes to inflationary pressure on ETH.Sell (put) options ill-prepared for ETH prices above $2,600ETH options aggregate open interest, USD. Source: Laevitas.chEven though the $1.3 billion in call (buy) options dominate the May 30 expiry, that doesn’t necessarily imply that those traders will reinvest the proceeds in new bullish positions. Many option strategies involve multiple maturities and are structured in ways that don’t benefit from ETH rising above specific thresholds. Additionally, traders may hedge their exposure through futures markets.The $1.1 billion in put (sell) options were clearly caught off guard, as 97% were set at $2,600 or lower. These contracts will expire worthless if ETH holds above that level at 8:00 am UTC on May 30. While this imbalance is unusual, a similar outcome could affect the overly optimistic call options with strike prices at $2,800 and above if ETH remains near current levels.Related: SharpLink launches Ethereum treasury, taps Joe Lubin as board chairBelow are four likely scenarios based on current price trends. These outcomes estimate theoretical profits based on open interest imbalances and do not account for complex strategies.Between $2,300 and $2,500: $420 million in calls (buy) vs. $220 million in puts (sell). The net result favors the call instruments by $200 million.Between $2,500 and $2,600: $500 million calls vs. $130 million puts, favoring calls by $370 million.Between $2,600 and $2,700: $590 million calls vs. $35 million puts, favoring calls by $555 million.Between $2,700 and $2,900: $780 million calls vs. $10 million puts, favoring calls by $770 million.Bulls are strongly incentivized to push ETH past $2,700, yet the broader context may override those efforts. Given the strong correlation between cryptocurrencies and the S&P 500, macroeconomic indicators and corporate earnings are likely to remain the primary forces shaping investor risk appetite—and ultimately, ETH’s price at the time of the monthly options expiry.This article is for general information purposes and is not intended to be and should not be taken as legal or investment advice.

Key takeaways:Rising bond yields reflect growing concern about fiscal stability and inflation, leadi...Key takeaways:Rising bond yields reflect growing concern about fiscal stability and inflation, leading some investors to question US Treasury’s traditional role as a safe-haven asset.Bitcoin defies conventional risk models, rising not because of worsening macro conditions, but possibly because of them.Bitcoin (BTC) climbed to new heights amid an increasingly fragile global macroeconomic backdrop. Bond yields are surging in the US and Japan, global growth is stalling, and consumer confidence in the US is scraping historic lows.Paradoxically, the very macro conditions that once threatened Bitcoin’s price are now fueling its rise. The shift speaks to a broader transformation in how investors interpret risk and where they seek refuge. At the center of this realignment is the US debt crisis and the ballooning Treasury yields, which were once considered the safest assets in the world.Why are US Treasury yields so important?When US bond yields rise, the cost of servicing its national debt increases sharply — a critical issue given that US debt has now surpassed $36.8 trillion, and the interest payments are expected to total $952 billion in 2025.US President Donald Trump made it clear on several occasions that lowering yields was among his top economic priorities. However, this may prove far more difficult than he expected, as the two most reliable methods to achieve it both need to come from the US Federal Reserve. Lowering interest rates would make newly issued bonds yield less, making existing higher-yielding bonds more attractive, pushing up their price and lowering their effective yield. Another way is through quantitative easing (QE), where the Fed would buy large amounts of bonds on the open market, thus increasing demand and lowering yields.The Federal Reserve is currently resisting both strategies and taking caution not to reignite inflation, particularly amid the ongoing tariff war. Even if Trump finds a legal or quasi-legal way to pressure Fed Chair Jerome Powell, it could backfire by eroding investor confidence and producing the opposite of the intended effect.Investors do not appreciate political meddling with the foundations of the US and global economy, and their confidence is already fragile. In times of instability, investors traditionally flock to government bonds as a safe haven. But today, the opposite is happening. Investors are turning away from Treasurys, suggesting the problems in the US economy are too large to ignore. The recent loss of the US government’s last AAA credit rating is a stark confirmation.The worrying yield surge in the US and JapanOn May 22, the yield on the US 30-year bond hit 5.15% — its highest since October 2023, and before that, a level not seen since July 2007. The 10-year yield now stands at 4.48%, the 5-year yield at 4%, and the 2-year yield at 3.92%. US bond yields: 30Y, 10Y, 5Y, and 2Y. Source: TradingViewFor the first time since October 2021, the US 5-Year to 30-Year bond spread has steepened to 1.00%. This suggests markets are pricing in stronger growth, persistent inflation, and a “higher for longer” rate environment. Related: Bitcoin price hit a new all-time high and data shows BTC bulls aren’t done yetCompounding the problem is Japan, the largest foreign holder of US Treasurys. Japanese investors currently hold $1.13 trillion in US government debt, $350 billion more than China. For decades, Japanese institutions borrowed cheaply at home to invest in US bonds and stocks — a strategy known as the carry trade.This era may be ending. In March 2024, the Bank of Japan started raising interest rates from -0.1% to 0.5% now. Since April, the Japanese 30-year bond yield has surged by 100 basis points, reaching an all-time high of 3.1%. The 20-year bond yields rose to 2.53%, a level not seen since 1999. On May 19, Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba even warned the country’s parliament that his debt-strapped government’s position was “worse than Greece” — a startling admission for a country with a 260% debt-to-GDP ratio.30-year government bonds.Source: LSEG DatastreamInterestingly, the surge in long-dated Japanese bonds wasn’t matched by shorter maturities. The 10-year bond yield is 1.53%, and the 5-year bond yield is just 1%. As Reuters noted, this suggests a strategic shift by large Japanese pension and insurance funds as the Bank of Japan “normalizes” interest rates. These institutions may now be reassessing both duration risk and foreign bond exposure, which spells potential trouble for US Treasurys if (or when) they begin unwinding their holdings.Will bond volatility continue to impact Bitcoin price?As the US continues down the debt spiral, and Japan might be starting its own, the global economy is nowhere near recovery, and that could be a good sign for Bitcoin.Traditionally, rising bond yields would drag down risk assets. Yet stocks and Bitcoin continue climbing. This divergence suggests investors may be moving away from the traditional playbook. When confidence in the system erodes, assets outside it, like stocks and Bitcoin, begin to shine, even if they are considered risk-on. What’s more, between Bitcoin and US stocks, an increasing number of institutions choose Bitcoin. As The Kobeissi Letter noted, net 38% of institutional investors were underweight US equities in early May, the lowest since May 2023, according to BofA.FMS US equity allowance. Source: BofA Global ResearchMeanwhile, according to CoinGlass, total inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs continue to grow, with assets under management now exceeding $104 billion, an all-time high. This surge suggests that institutional capital is beginning to recognize Bitcoin not just as a high-performing asset, but as a politically neutral store of value, akin to gold. In an era of mounting instability in fiat debt-based economies, Bitcoin is emerging as a credible alternative, offering a monetary system grounded in predictability and decentralization. With a market cap still well below gold’s $22 trillion or even the $5.5 trillion in base dollars (not including debt), Bitcoin remains significantly undervalued.Interestingly, the current situation supports both of Bitcoin’s once-contradictory narratives: it is acting as a high-yield risk asset and a safe haven store of value. In a world where old frameworks are failing, Bitcoin's dual role may no longer be an anomaly, but a sign of what’s to come.This article does not contain investment advice or recommendations.
