Subscribe to see how I invest! To minimize the risks of asset depreciation, ChatGPT recommends allocating capital as follows: invest 60% in leading high-capitalization digital assets, and the remaining 40% in promising altcoins to increase returns. This approach forms a balanced portfolio of seven cryptocurrencies:
The Bank of Russia plans to agree with the government on an experimental legal regime (ELR) in the near future, under which 'especially qualified investors' will be able to trade cryptocurrencies, stated the head of the Central Bank Elvira Nabiullina during her speech at the conference 'Russian Stock Market - 2025', organized by NAUFOR, as reported by RBC correspondent.
In March, the Bank of Russia proposed to create an ELR for a period of three years, within which 'especially qualified investors' would be able to buy and sell cryptocurrency. This status was intended to be granted to citizens if their investments in securities and deposits exceed 100 million rubles or their income for the previous year was more than 50 million rubles. It was also assumed that participants in the experiment could include qualified investors under current legislation, and that the regulator would establish additional requirements for financial organizations wishing to invest in cryptocurrencies.
'Investments directly in cryptocurrencies will require changes in regulation; they will require separate infrastructure.'
$USDC According to The Block, American prosecutors stated that, despite the fact that the Department of Justice (DOJ) recently issued an internal memo easing enforcement standards for crypto companies, it will not change the existing charges against Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon. The memo, signed by Deputy Attorney Todd Blanche, calls for a temporary halt to criminal prosecutions of crypto exchanges and mixing services, except in special circumstances, and asserts that related regulatory work should be carried out by Trump administration agencies. Do Kwon currently faces multiple charges, including commodities fraud, securities fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit money laundering; if convicted on all counts, he could face up to 130 years in prison. The court postponed the start date of the trial from January 26, 2026, to February 17, 2026, and the next preliminary conference is scheduled for June 12, 2025.

The Ethereum Foundation has introduced the Trillion Dollar Security project — a "community ecosystem effort to enhance the security of Ethereum with the goal of transitioning the entire world to blockchain".
The goal of the "trillion-dollar security" initiative is to achieve the following conditions:
billions of people will be able to safely store on-chain under the protection of Ethereum over $1000;
for companies, institutions, and governments, this amount will reach $1 trillion within a single application or smart contract.
The implementation of Trillion Dollar Security includes three main components:
mapping the landscape of the network's strengths and attack vectors across all technological layers, which will help focus on specific directions;
executing improvements in priority areas identified during the assessment process;
more effective communication regarding Ethereum security involving a wide range of specialists and users.
The project will be led by Fredrik Svantes and Josh Stark as co-chairs from the Ethereum Foundation.
#MastercardStablecoinCards The payment system Mastercard and its Web3 protocol Immersve will allow users to make cryptocurrency payments in physical and digital worlds, including decentralized services and metaverses, reports Cointelegraph. Settlements will occur in stablecoins USD Coin (USDC), which will be converted into fiat currency for transactions within the Mastercard system.
Transfers can be made not only in the Web3 space but also in real-world trading services that accept Mastercard-issued cards for online payments. Users will be able to access the service using their crypto wallets. Real-time payments will be processed after transaction confirmation with private keys.
Payments will be made without the involvement of third parties. Mastercard and Immersve will utilize decentralized protocols for settlements, according to the announcement.
Additionally, DeFi projects and crypto wallets will be able to integrate with Immersve's APIs and smart contracts for transactions wherever Mastercard is accepted.
#BinancePizza Every year on May 22, the cryptocurrency community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day. The occasion for the holiday was a landmark event for the industry when in 2010 programmer Laszlo Hanyecz purchased two Papa John’s pizzas for 10,000 BTC.
At the time of writing, they are worth ~$267 million. In 2023, the community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day for the 13th time. ForkLog has collected congratulations and promotions for the holiday.
Among the supporters of the event is the cryptocurrency exchange Binance. This year, the platform is giving away prizes, delivering pizza offline, and holding contests.
#CryptoCPIWatch Ethereum Update Another possible reason for the rise in the price of Ethereum could have been the Pectra update, which took place in early May and may lead to institutional demand.
"The Pectra update went smoothly, which increased confidence in Ethereum's ability to scale and paved the way for further institutional adoption," said Sean Dawson, head of research at Derive, a company focused on insurance in the decentralized finance sector.
#ETHCrossed2500 Altcoins grew alongside Ethereum and Bitcoin, with several major coins demonstrating double-digit growth. According to TradingView, the Bitcoin dominance index in the market dropped from 65.4% to 63.6% in just one day, indicating a capital outflow into alternative crypto assets. The decrease in BTC dominance during a broad bullish trend in the market usually points to higher relative performance of altcoins.
#AltcoinSeasonLoading BTC rises first. Everyone is buying bitcoin as the 'main asset' of the crypto market. Investors are taking profits and looking at ETH and top altcoins. Then capital 'flows' into mid-cap altcoins. And finally — into small, volatile tokens (low-cap).
#AirdropFinderGuide So, what exactly is the Fingerprint API? The API allows the user to authenticate using their fingerprint, obviously. To work with the sensor, the API offers us FingerprintManager, which is quite simple to master.
How to use it? Now that is more interesting. Practically everywhere that password authentication is required, fingerprint authentication can be implemented. Imagine an application consisting of LoginActivity and MainActivity. Upon launch, we arrive at the login screen, enter the PIN code, and proceed to the data. But we want to replace the PIN code login with fingerprint login. By the way, a complete replacement is not possible; we can only spare the user from manually entering the PIN code by substituting a previously saved PIN code (referring to a client-server application where it is necessary to send the password to the server).
За счет появления множества нишевых проектов и мемкоинов из-за чего капитал распыляется на большой выбор активов, и большинству альтов не достается достаточно «топлива» для существенного роста.
Эти же самые щиткоины могут не падать до нуля и в них по сути навсегда лочится ликвидность на микрокапитализациях ~$10–100k, соответственно общая ликвидность рынка все меньше концентрируется в крупных альтах по сравнению с прошлыми циклами
По сути весь свободный капитал впитал в себя сектор мемов и затем не дал шанса для выхода из активов коррекцией на 80%
Trading volumes of the meme coin of US President Donald Trump Official Trump (TRUMP) have increased on major cryptocurrency exchanges by hundreds and even thousands of percent over the past week.

According to CoinGlass, as of 14:00 MSK on April 29, over the past seven days, trading volumes in the TRUMP/USD pair on Coinbase increased by 355%, on Kraken by 1040%, and on Bitstamp by 7974%. In the TRUMP/USDT pair, trading volumes on Binance rose by 554%, on OKX by 590%, and on Bybit by 688%.
#XRPETF Price Analysis of XRP The price of XRP has broken out of a descending consolidation pattern. This could lead to a rise to $8.08, which will become a new all-time high (ATH). Key points:
XRP has surpassed important moving averages (MA), including the 200-day simple moving average (SMA). Technical analysis shows bullish momentum supported by key Fibonacci retracement levels. A rise to $8.08 implies an increase of 1,380% from the current ATH of $3.84. Short-term price targets: $2.29, $2.5, $2.71, and $3.01, with resistance at $3.4. The analyst recommends patience, as the path to $6-$8 may take several months. Despite market volatility, the breakout confirms that XRP is entering a multi-month bullish cycle with expected long-term growth.
$ETH From a technical standpoint, the Ether rebound shows a strong momentum, but it still needs to overcome key resistance levels to confirm a long-term trend. Here’s an analysis of several key points:
Support and Resistance: ETH has successfully broken through the resistance level at $1,680 in this round of rebound and stabilized at $1,750. In the near future, the range of $1,850-$2,000 will become the next important resistance zone.
If ETH can break the $2,000 mark and hold above the 200-day moving average (around $1,990), it may further test the historical resistance level at $2,250 or even higher at $2,500. Otherwise, if it fails to hold support at $1,570, the price may return to the range of $1,490 to $1,400.
#EthereumFuture The 14% increase in Ethereum is not an isolated case but is closely tied to the recent overall recovery in the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin Price (BTC) has surpassed the $90,000 mark, reaching a new record, thus pushing the total market value of the cryptocurrency market above $3 trillion. As one of the market indicators, ETH has attracted a significant influx of funds. According to on-chain data, the daily trading volume of ETH has increased by 27% to approximately $1.5 billion, demonstrating a significant recovery in investor confidence.
Furthermore, the global appetite for risk in financial markets has improved. The American stock market has recently stabilized, particularly performing strongly in the technology sector, creating a favorable environment for high-risk assets such as cryptocurrencies.
