Ripple SEC settlement rejection last week by Judge Torres over filing errors extends XRP uncertainty.

Market awaits Ripple & SEC’s next move on a corrected settlement after the May 15 denial.

Despite the legal setback, XRP price shows some recovery this week; technicals hint at potential breakout.

The long-running legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is far from over. Judge Analisa Torres, who has been overseeing the high-profile case, has officially rejected a recent settlement request from both parties, throwing the future of the lawsuit into uncertainty once again. 

A few weeks ago, Ripple and the SEC had agreed to settle their long-running legal dispute, aiming to wrap things up quickly. However, Judge Torres denied their joint request, calling it “procedurally improper.” In simple terms, the court said they didn’t follow the correct legal process when filing their request.

#XRPCommunity #SECGov v. #Ripple #XRP Judge Torres has denied the parties’ motion for an indicative ruling. “If jurisdiction were restored to this Court, the Court would deny the parties’ motion as procedurally improper.” …

In a recent post and an accompanying video analysis, Gambardello zoomed out on Cardano’s monthly chart. He identified several technical signals reminiscent that he believes are strongly reminiscent of patterns previously observed right before ADA’s major bull cycles. 

While many in the crypto community remain skeptical, Gambardello remains firmly bullish, and he’s not afraid to say it.

After a stunning surge from the $0.00001000 base earlier this month, the PEPE price is currently consolidating near the $0.00001550 mark, posting over 45% gains in less than two weeks. This sharp climb has brought the meme token back into focus, but momentum indicators now flash early caution signs even as bulls eye higher Fibonacci targets.

What’s Happening With PEPE’s Price?

PEPEUSD price analysis (Source:TradingView)

On the weekly chart, PEPE price action shows a clean reversal from the multi-month lows, breaking past the 23.6% and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement levels. The rally reclaimed the psychological $0.00001200 mark and is now attempting to hold above $0.00001500—an area that previously acted as support before the February selloff.

The breakout from the $0.00001020–$0.00001200 consolidation range has been backed by rising volume and structure confirmation. This suggests bulls are attempting a larger reversal, especially as the token climbs toward the 50% retracement zone near $0.00001800.

The Worldcoin price today is holding near $1.53, cooling off slightly after a vertical run to $1.63. The surge has shifted technical momentum in favor of bulls, but short-term indicators now flash caution near key resistance zones.

After a parabolic move earlier this week, Worldcoin price action is showing signs of exhaustion as lower timeframe indicators slip out of overbought zones. While bulls remain in control on the higher timeframes, a short-term consolidation or minor retracement appears likely before the next leg.

On the 30-minute and 4-hour charts, Worldcoin price staged a near-vertical breakout from the $1.20 consolidation range, spiking over 35% to tag $1.63 before pulling back mildly. This rally followed a textbook breakout from a descending wedge structure, backed by rising volume and momentum.

The immediate rejection near $1.63 has created a local resistance cap, while the zone around $1.47–$1.50 is acting as soft support. On the daily structure, Worldcoin has now reclaimed its mid-April highs and is pushing into untested resistance from late December arou…

Ethereum bulls are attempting to stretch their winning streak into May 24, with the Ethereum price pushing past short-term consolidation and nearing critical resistance. After consolidating for much of the past week, ETH has surged more than 7% over the last 48 hours and is now trading just below a key psychological level that may decide the next leg of its trend.

Highlights:

Ethereum price today is trading around $2,724 after testing intraday highs near $2,733

MACD crossover and Ichimoku breakout suggest bullish continuation, but RSI nears overbought zone

Key support lies at $2,685; resistance overhead at $2,745 and $2,800 remains unbroken

The Ethereum price today is trading near $2,724, up roughly 0.5% intraday, and attempting to solidify its breakout from the $2,680–$2,690 resistance band. On the 4-hour chart, ETH has made a decisive move above the Bollinger mid-band and the 20/50 EMA clusters, indicating rising trend strength.

After staging a powerful rally from below $102,000, the Bitcoin price today is trading near $111,150, showing signs of exhaustion just below the key resistance ceiling at $112,000. The move comes after a steep breakout on May 20 that took the Bitcoin price above multiple trendline resistances and historical supply zones.

Key support zone rests between $109,200 and $108,300

However, current indicators suggest a pause may be ahead, as the bulls face a stiff test in maintaining the momentum. The broader Bitcoin price action remains bullish, but the short-term structure now points to potential consolidation or even a short-term pullback if bulls fail to hold key support clusters near $109,200 and $108,300.

An altcoin rally is anticipated as gold’s breakout and Bitcoin’s (BTC) setup mirror historical bull signals

Dan Gambardello highlights altcoins like Ethereum (ETH), Cardano (ADA) building strength for a significant surge.

The broader altcoin market, though currently lagging, shows strong potential for an explosive catch-up this cycle.

After gold’s explosive breakout, market analysts are now watching Bitcoin (BTC) closely, figuring it’s next in line for a huge run-up. According to crypto analyst Dan Gambardello, the current market setup for Bitcoin is strikingly similar to a familiar historical pattern that previously led to significant gains. 

The same way gold surged in late 2020 before Bitcoin followed, current charts suggest a repeat may be underway. If true, this could mark the early stages of a full-blown crypto bull market, pulling major altcoins like Ethereum and Cardano along for the ride.

GRASS rallied above $2.40, outperforming peers with a confirmed breakout backed by strong trading volume.

TAO climbed 11%, pushing toward $500 resistance with bullish momentum and consistent support on the weekly chart.

WLD remains rangebound under $1.50, facing ongoing sell pressure from unlocks despite high-profile project backing.

Legacy AI coins like Fetch.ai (FET) and Akash Network (AKT) have lost market momentum. While they benefit from high float and no remaining unlocks, their technology and relevance no longer drive demand. These assets now see lower engagement, both in trading activity and community traction.

The focus has shifted toward platforms with active development and stronger use cases. Investors are moving funds into projects that align with evolving interests. Assets that once led the sector now lag, as newer names push ahead with broader appeal and utility.

Altcoin Sherpa commented on May 22 that the earlier leaders in this category now face limited exposure, making room for recently launched alternatives to take center stage.

Braza launched the USDB stablecoin on May 22, 2025, using the XRP Ledger for fast and low-cost transactions.

USDB is pegged to the U.S. dollar and works alongside BBRL to support both regional and international financial needs.

Ripple’s XRPL infrastructure enables real-time payments, aiming to expand stablecoin adoption across Latin America.

On May 22, 2025, RippleX announced that Braza Group launched its new USD-backed stablecoin, USDB, on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The move targets individuals and institutions in Latin America, enabling faster and more secure international transactions.

USDB is pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar and functions natively on XRPL. The network offers quick settlement, low fees, and built-in token support. Braza aims to improve digital finance access in markets where currency volatility and limited banking infrastructure remain challenges.

This launch adds to Braza’s presence on XRPL, where its local token BBRL already operates. The two assets together are designed to support use cases like payments, transfers, and digital asset interactions across borders.

Bitcoin’s profit-taking volume dropped to $1.00 billion, less than half of December’s $2.10B.

New traders are now leading Bitcoin’s market, while long-term holders are less active.

Bitcoin’s price surge may lead investors to shift focus to altcoins for higher returns.

Glassnode reported that even though Bitcoin hit a new all-time high, the amount being sold for profit dropped. Bitcoin’s profit-taking at the May 2025 all-time high was only $1 billion, compared to over $2 billion in December 2024. Investors’ behavior is different now, even when the price of Bitcoin goes up.

In short:

Realized profits are lower in magnitude
Long-term holders are holding out
Short-term traders are driving the market

This combination may signal continued bullish expectations from less speculative $BTC investors.

The bill narrowly passed with a 215-214 vote

It contains many provisions, from new tax breaks to defense and border security

The Senate is next in line to review the bill

Today, the US House of Representatives narrowly passed (215-214 vote) President Donald Trump’s comprehensive tax and spending legislation, known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. This now moves to the Senate, where it faces further deliberation.

The bill contains many provisions as it seeks to make permanent the tax cuts introduced in 2017. It introduces exemptions for tips, overtime pay, and car loan interests, and raises the state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap from $10,000 to $40,000 for incomes under $500,000.

It also increases the child tax credit to $2,500 through 2028, which then reverts to $2,000, and establishes $1,000 savings accounts for children born during Trump’s second term. The 5% tax on remittances is part of the package, too.

The legislation tackled the defense and border security as well, allocating around $150 billion to defense, including a $20 billion missile defense system. The rest is going to border security, with $50 billion assigned for completing the so…

Trump’s dinner with top investors signals a crucial moment for the TRUMP token’s future.

TRUMP coin’s tight supply and rising volume increase volatility and short-term momentum.

Justin Sun’s involvement hints at TRON partnership, boosting TRUMP’s ecosystem potential.

In a dramatic collision of politics, finance, and digital currency, former President Donald Trump is hosting an exclusive dinner tonight at his golf club near Washington, D.C. The gathering includes over 200 top investors in the TRUMP meme coin. These individuals either currently hold or have previously held large amounts of the token. 

The event marks a pivotal moment not only for the cryptocurrency’s short-term momentum but also for its long-term credibility. Investors are bracing for the unveiling of a new TRUMP-related product during the dinner, a move that could significantly impact the token’s future.

FIFA is launching a dedicated layer-1 blockchain using Avalanche’s customizable infrastructure.

The new blockchain replaces Algorand and supports Ethereum-compatible applications.

FIFA has not disclosed future product plans beyond its NFT marketplace and collectibles.

Global football authority FIFA has announced a major new phase in its Web3 strategy, revealing a partnership with Avalanche to create a dedicated Layer-1 blockchain. This strategic move sees FIFA transitioning its blockchain operations from its previous partner, Algorand, to the Avalanche network, which was recently bolstered by its Avalanche9000 upgrade aimed at supporting enterprise-grade deployments.

According to an announcement, FIFA will build a customizable Layer-1 blockchain leveraging Avalanche’s robust infrastructure. This platform, referred to internally as the “FIFA Blockchain,” is structured as a Layer-1 network, similar in concept to what Avalanche has previously described as a subnet. This dedicated blockchain is designed to offer the scalability and performance features tailored to FIFA’s evolving digital engagement plans.

Arthur Hayes said that this is an embarrassment and will make others think twice about loading up on treasuries

The Norinchukin Bank had previously held a big portion of its ¥45 trillion ($315.5 billion) portfolio in foreign government bonds

The 30-year US Treasury yield climbed to 5.089%, which is the highest since October 2023, following a weak 20-year bond auction

Norinchukin Bank announced a loss of approximately $12.6 billion (¥1.8 trillion) for the fiscal year ending March 2025, primarily due to big losses on its holdings of foreign government bonds, especially US Treasuries and European sovereign debt.

This didn’t come out of nowhere, since the bank was forecasting a loss of ¥1.9 trillion back in February, with the CEO announcing his resignation. Today, the loss became official.

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, commented on the situation, saying that this is an embarrassment and will make others think twice about loading up on treasuries. He also stated: “There goes another price incentive buyer of the doo doo that The BBC needs to sell. All eyes are on the Brrrr button.”

Standard Chartered’s Foo Ken Yap predicts a US Federal Reserve interest rate cut despite fiscal concerns.

Morgan Stanley offers a contrasting view, warning of stagflation and recession for US economy in 2025.

Despite uncertainty, Bitcoin (BTC) hits new ATH as investors seek alternative havens like gold.

Senior Investment Strategist at Standard Chartered Bank, Foo Ken Yap, has predicted that the US Federal Reserve will cut interest rates despite expectations to the contrary from various market quarters. According to Yap, the Fed will likely take the unexpected action to cushion the bond market impact and lend support to the overall economic growth.

The research strategist acknowledged the escalating concerns over the US fiscal deficit. However, he predicted that the US 10-year Treasury bond yield would decrease from  4.59% to 4% – 4.25%. Alongside this, Yap and his team at Standard Chartered Bank maintain an optimistic stance on US stocks.

Coinbase hacker uses Thorchain for a $42.5M BTC to ETH cross-chain crypto swap activity.

Decentralized protocol Thorchain identified as key tool in Coinbase hacker’s fund launder.

PeckShield reports Coinbase hacker utilized Thorchain in converting stolen crypto to DAI.

The hacker tied to a significant data breach at Coinbase has reappeared on-chain, kicking off large-scale crypto swaps and dispatching threatening messages aimed squarely at blockchain investigator ZachXBT. The attacker, who managed to breach sensitive data from over 69,000 Coinbase users, has now funneled tens of millions in digital assets across different chains, in a renewed and bold display of control over the stolen funds.

Fresh activity flared up on May 21, when the attacker tapped Thorchain, a decentralized protocol known for facilitating cross-chain swaps. They used it to exchange an estimated $42.5 million worth of Bitcoin (BTC) for Ethereum (ETH). Blockchain data clearly shows these transactions bypassed intermediaries, highlighting the hacker’s use of unapproved, decentralized protocols to launder substantial amounts of crypto.

EU’s MiCA regulations trigger Tether (USDT) withdrawal from major European crypto exchanges.

Ripple’s MiCA-compliant RLUSD stablecoin is positioned to fill the void left by USDT in Europe.

MiCA’s impact could boost XRP as RLUSD gains traction on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum.

The European Union’s new MiCA regulations have sent shockwaves through the crypto ecosystem. These rules aim to bring stability to stablecoins, but the fallout has been swift and disruptive. Tether, the issuer of USDT, the most widely used stablecoin globally, has started withdrawing its flagship product from major European crypto exchanges. 

This strategic retreat by Tether, driven by what it evidently sees as challenging regulatory hurdles under MiCA, is creating a noticeable vacuum in the continent’s digital asset markets. Observers note that USDT liquidity has begun to tighten on these platforms, leaving traders and protocols scrambling for viable alternatives. In this turbulent environment, Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin appears to be quietly gaining ground, set to reshape the competitive field.

The Ripple lawsuit’s outcome could reshape global financial infrastructure, says SMQKE.

A complete victory for Ripple could help financial institutions adopt blockchain technology.

Ripple and the SEC seek another chance to reach a settlement in the ongoing case.

SMQKE, a well-known crypto researcher, believes that the result of the Ripple lawsuit may launch a new stage in global financial infrastructure. American lawyer James C. Spindler made this claim in his legal report titled “SHAQ, RIPPLE AND THE FUTURE OF CRYPTO REGULATION.” The report was prepared and released by William & Mary Law School.

SMQKE stated that if Ripple won, it would give banks and asset managers a clear path to use blockchain for main financial activities. The findings reveal that Judge Analisa Torres found that a portion of Ripple’s XRP sales was not in violation of securities laws. Legal experts claim that Ripple’s initial XRP release was the same as selling shares in an unwritten corporate value.

Volatility Shares launches first 1x XRP futures ETF on May 22, boosting market interest.

Over 60 million XRP sold by whales in 72 hours, signaling major portfolio moves.

CME recently introduced XRP and Micro XRP futures, boosting institutional access to XRP.

Volatility Shares is preparing to launch the industry’s first XRP futures ETF on May 22. Trading under the ticker XRPI, the product will mainly invest in XRP futures contracts. This is a significant moment for XRP, since it allows investors to access XRP through regulated investments rather than holding the token directly.

The launch occurred after XRP futures were introduced on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). The launch of XRP derivatives on CME reflected the rising need among institutions for regulated XRP products. 

Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas has pointed out that the Volatility Shares ETF is the first of its kind in the crypto market, unlike the current 2x leveraged XRP ETFs. He foresees that the new fund will attract investors and thus encourage more adoption of XRP futures.
