The day started calmly, but the crypto market jolted: millions liquidated, countries changing strategies, and institutional giants making their moves. Ready? Let’s dive into the main events of May 24.
🧨 BlackRock and Ethereum: A signal to start?
Institutional titan BlackRock entered Ethereum with $52.8 million — and this is not just a number, it's a message to the market: altseason is not canceled.
🔍 Why this matters:
• This is BlackRock's first public step after launching the spot ETH-ETF, and it speaks louder than any press conference.
• In 2024, the company already dominated with Bitcoin ETF — now it's ETH's turn.
• Their investments are directed through iShares Ethereum Trust, registered in the USA. This means that the largest funds, pension accounts, and hedge funds can legally invest in ETH.
💬 “Institutionals don't chase hype. They enter when they're sure of growth. So, if you're waiting for a green arrow — watch their movements.”
⚠️ Liquidations of $300 million: Bullish cry or harbinger of a storm?
While BlackRock is strengthening its position, the market is massively losing ground — $300 million liquidated in derivatives in a day.
📉 Reason: threat of trade tariffs from Donald Trump. As soon as his statements about possible measures against China and other countries emerged — volatility skyrocketed.
🔥 Who was affected:
• Short and long positions on BTC and ETH triggered stop-losses like dominoes.
• Altcoins like SOL, AVAX, ARB dropped by 5–8%.
• Traders are massively fleeing to stablecoins, awaiting the 'second wave.'
🧠 Insight: the market reacts sharply to geopolitics. We play cautiously, adjust stop-losses, and don't enter 'on emotions.'
🇺🇦 Ukraine creates a crypto reserve
Against the backdrop of war and sanctions pressure, Ukraine looks to the future: discussions are underway in the Rada about creating a cryptocurrency reserve — an alternative to the foreign exchange reserves, but on the blockchain.
💡 Use cases:
• Storing part of the assets in BTC, ETH, or USDT.
• Strategic placements through DeFi protocols with fixed income.
• Supporting the hryvnia through blockchain interventions.
🧩 Analytics: if the initiative receives approval, it could become a historic case for the use of cryptocurrencies at the state reserve level.
🌍 Pakistan — the future crypto hub?
A new wave of blockchain initiatives in Asia: Pakistan is joining the race to become the region's crypto hub.
📌 What’s already happening:
• Discussion with the head of the Crypto Council at the military leadership level (!).
• Development of a national strategy for blockchain and AI.
• Interest in regulation, not bans.
💬 “When the army and crypto meet at the same table — it's not a meme, it's a strategic pivot.”
🧠 Conclusion:
• BlackRock buys ETH — consider this a green light for altcoins.
• Liquidations of $300M — a reminder: without a strategy, you are just meat for futures.
• Ukraine and Pakistan show: states no longer ignore crypto — they are working with it.
