VAT taxes, corporate penalties, and non-monetary restrictions
Alleged monetary manipulation and lawsuits against American companies
A $250 billion annual trade deficit
📉 Market Impact?
This could have major implications for:
Global supply chains

XRP Faces 3.55% Dip Despite ETF Launches and Regulatory Progress, Traders Await Clear Direction
XRP is currently trading at $2.3467 on Binance, down 3.55% over the past 24 hours, with significant trading volume and ongoing consolidation below resistance levels. The recent price decline follows the launch of the Volatility Shares XRP futures ETF (XRPI) on Nasdaq and the introduction of CME XRP futures, both of which initially drove market interest but have not yet translated into sustained upward price momentum. Additionally, while Ripple’s settlement with the SEC and the anticipation of a decision on a spot XRP ETF have provided regulatory clarity and optimism, these developments have so far led to a "wait-and-see" approach among traders, resulting in subdued price action and limited directional movement in the short term.
$SUI just smashed a major on-chain milestone with TVL hitting $2.2B – that’s a 222% YoY growth 🤯. DeFi on SUI is no joke anymore. Money’s flowing in, and the market is taking notice.
📈 Price? $4.08 and climbing (+6.2% 24h).
📊 Derivatives? Open Interest up 31.3% to $1.76B.
💸 Funding rate flipped positive – bulls are paying to hold long.
We're also seeing a textbook cup-and-handle pattern forming near $4.18 – a breakout above could trigger the next leg up. But without volume confirmation, caution is key. 🤏
Shorts just got squeezed for $1.64M, while longs barely flinched. Market’s clearly leaning bullish, and momentum indicators (MACD crossover + RSI at 67) back it up. 🐂
My take? If $4.18 flips to support, we might be heading straight into price discovery. 🚀
SUI Army, you watching this unfold? 👀
🧠 Stay sharp, ride the wave, but respect the volatility.
Trump declared the EU was “formed to take advantage of the U.S. on trade” and accused it of using barriers, VAT, penalties, and currency manipulation to harm American companies. He said talks have stalled and proposed a 50% tariff on all EU imports starting June 1, 2025, unless the goods are made in the U.S.
Base just became the #1 Ethereum L2 by TVL — and it’s not even close.
TVL growth:
> 12 months ago: $3.9B
> Today: $8.4B (+115%)
Key insight:
45% of Base’s TVL is stablecoins.
That’s $3.8B in parked capital, mostly $USDC.
What’s driving growth?
1️⃣ https://t.co/TjPrjA2t0M added support for $ETH & $USDC on Base
2️⃣ Coinbase ecosystem advantage
- Top protocols: @MorphoLabs, @AerodromeFi, @Uniswap
93% of TVL from just 6 apps
3️⃣ Frictionless onboarding vs Ethereum mainnet
Why it matters?
Stablecoins = fuel for DeFi
The deeper the liquidity, the stronger the flywheel for lending, perps, and yield strategies.
Base isn’t just scaling Ethereum.
It’s becoming the stablecoin layer.
#MarketPullback Don't Panic dear #BINANCIAN💞💞 $SOL Sees Sharp Pullback and Immediate Rebound Market Attempts Stabilization❗❗❗#Solana experienced significant volatility within the last trading session, with price action showing a sudden drop from a high of $187.71 to an intraday low of $173.29. This marks a notable correction amid recent gains. However, the market quickly responded with a recovery back to $178.14, indicating active buyer interest near the lower support range.
The current trading volume stands at 4.86 million SOL, with a nearly even split between bids (52.26%) and asks (47.74%), reflecting a cautiously balanced sentiment. Over the past 7 days, SOL has posted a +5.11% gain, and it remains up +23.01% over the past month. Despite this short-term strength, the 6-month (-30.43%) and 1-year (-0.50%) metrics highlight underlying market pressure.
Technical indicators suggest the market is attempting to stabilize after a rapid sell-off. Traders are advised to monitor price movements closely around the $175–$180 range, which now serves as a critical zone for potential support or renewed selling pressure.

🔍 XRP Defies Doubt — Uptrend Holds Strong Despite Mixed On-Chain Signals
XRP recovers mid-week as XRP/BTC flashes golden cross for the first time since 2017.
Big volume holdings suggest growing demand and investor confidence by increasing XRP exposure.
Rising exchange reserves to 2.9 billion XRP from 2.7 billion XRP on May 1 points to possible selling force.
With the token's price hovering around $2.44 at the time of writing Friday, Ripple's (XRP) mid-week rebound stays steady. The increase in support around $2.29 on Monday reflected larger risk-on attitude in the bitcoin market, which saw altcoins climb with Bitcoin's (BTC) rise to new all-time highs of about 111,980.
Key on-chain indicators like as Exchange Reserves and Supply Distribution exhibit conflicting signals, hence trader prudence is advised and might help to delay the XRP rise aiming toward $3.00.
Positive market general attitude as well as rising whale holdings over the last week have helped to boost the XRP surge. Showcasing the focused accumulation of XRP by investors owning between 10 million and 100 million coins, Santiment's Supply Distribution indicator appears on the chart below.
Up from 11.88% noted on May 12 and 11.58% on April 12, this cohort of investors today possesses 12.1% of the total supply of the coin. Whales' growing risk appetite suggests hope for XRP's future as investors count on a possible price rise.
Based on CryptoQuant's Exchange Reserve measure, which shows a significant increase in Binance's XRP holdings to 2.9 billion XRP from 2.7 billion XRP, traders may cut down hope this weekend as seen on the chart below.
Especially if traders channel the coins to open both long and short positions, the potential selling pressure or increased volatility rises as exchange reserves grow. Usually moving their assets to exchange platforms meant for sale, investors increase overhead pressure greatly.
