Happy 15th Anniversary of Bitcoin Pizza Day! The pizza from back then is now worth 1.1 billion dollars, and BTC celebrates by breaking new highs!
The pizza bought with 10,000 bitcoins has skyrocketed to a value of over 1.1 billion dollars after 15 years, and the price of BTC today has broken through 110,000 dollars, witnessing history once again. Can you imagine? The two large pizzas bought for less than 1,300 NTD at the time have turned into nearly 30 billion NTD after 15 years! Today, May 22, 2025, is the annual Bitcoin Pizza Day, and the BTC price has appropriately soared past 110,000 dollars. This article will take you back to revisit this memorable day. The most expensive pizza in history, the magnificent transformation of 10,000 bitcoins. To start from the beginning, in 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz from Florida was hungry, so he posted an article on the Bitcoin forum (BitcoinTalk Forum), stating that:
After a 90% drop, is it a reverse buying spree? a16z and Bain splurge $135 million to buy WLD
On May 21, 2025, World Foundation announced that its subsidiary World Assets Ltd. sold WLD tokens worth $135 million at market price to early supporters Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Bain Capital Crypto. Following the news, the price of WLD surged over 13% in a short period, reaching a peak of $1.29, with trading volume also increasing by 70%. Matt Hougam, Chief Investment Officer of Bitwise, expressed on X, 'a16z and Bain spent so much money buying WLD, but this token has dropped 90% over the past 14 months. I've never seen operations like this. To be honest, it's quite interesting.'
Has Bitcoin broken through again? Will it reach 150,000 dollars! Should we chase? Brother Sun is making moves, 'lavishing 300 million to send coins to the White House'?
Has Bitcoin broken through again? Should we chase? I’ve really been scared by the previous false breakouts, don’t chase too blindly. If it really stands firm and moves up, then it’s possible to allocate some altcoins for follow-up gains, like Pepe, Sui, or even Sol, there’s a lot of room.
Keep a close watch; if Bitcoin drops again, then we can take a small loss and continue to observe. The risk-reward ratio is favorable, betting small to gain big. It's an old trick, daily baiting, and we remind everyone about false breakouts every day; these are hard-earned insights. However, later we’ll take a look at the exchange data to see the major orders, and maybe there’s still something to consider.

Will there be an altcoin season soon? Is there still an altcoin season in this round?
Will there be an altcoin season soon? Is there still an altcoin season in this round? BTC has returned to 100,000 and seems relatively stable above that level. Will there be an altcoin season soon? ➤ Does an altcoin season mean a decline in BTC's market share? ❚ An altcoin season at least requires BTC to stabilize. When discussing altcoin seasons, most friends intuitively feel that BTC's market share declines. As a barometer of the industry, the cryptocurrency market has rarely seen BTC decline while altcoins soar.

On Tuesday (May 20), the dollar index hovered around 100.43, gold retreated to $3,221, and Bitcoin rebounded again, breaking through $105,000. Wall Street's largest whale, Strategy, and Japanese investment company Metaplanet successively announced their bullish stance on increasing Bitcoin holdings! The Federal Reserve emphasizes a wait-and-see stance, reducing the likelihood of interest rate cuts this summer. White House advisor Kevin Hassett hinted at the possibility of reaching more bilateral trade agreements.
Short-term uncertainty in Bitcoin has not deterred long-term buyers from increasing their holdings. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) announced the purchase of 7,390 Bitcoins at an average price of approximately $103,500, bringing its total holdings to 576,230 Bitcoins.
Institutions hold Bitcoin, while retail investors hold altcoins! This round of Bitcoin's bull market is a great migration of wealth that transfers retail investors' wealth to institutions!
Black Swan Event Strikes, Trump Makes Shocking Remarks! Bitcoin Surges to 106,000 Amid Volatile Movements, Gold Rises to 3,246 as a Safe Haven!
On Monday (May 19), the U.S. dollar index fell to 100.81, gold rose to $3,246, and Bitcoin rebounded to around $106,600 after a sharp decline. Moody's downgraded the U.S. rating, further putting downward pressure on the dollar. The panic over the U.S.-China trade war returns as President Trump criticizes Walmart for raising prices due to tariffs.
Black Swan Event: Moody's downgrades U.S. rating, dollar buying pressure frustrated. Investors will face yet another rocky start to trading this week, but this time, the volatility may be triggered by growing concerns about U.S. debt rather than tariffs. Asian financial markets reopened on Monday after Moody's rating agency announced on Friday night that it had downgraded the U.S. government's credit rating from Aaa to Aa1. Moody's rating lagged behind competitors, blaming the growing U.S. budget deficit on past presidents and congress members, stating there are almost no signs of narrowing.
The Alpha project launching this Wednesday — Port3 Network An AI project on the BNB Chain, currently with a relatively low market cap, has shown strong momentum recently. After the recent Alpha launch, there was also a 60% surge, indicating strong backing behind it. Currently, second-tier exchanges like Bybit, Gate, and MEXC have already launched it. Based on the project's strength, following Alpha, the next step will be the Binance spot or futures market. Recently, there have also been reports from South Korea about PORT3, possibly leading to a launch on Korean exchanges.
Actually, I'm only curious about one thing, who is still shorting $ALPACA.
After I spoke about it yesterday, it dropped and some people went crazy attacking me 😂 , and then suddenly he calls himself a long-only trader 🤣 .
For things that are hard to understand like this, the best approach is to stay away; both long and short could get killed, after all, many people thought if they didn't enter within an hour, it meant I was shorting, and they quickly got out before the settlement.
Bitcoin is about to surge to $100,000! The big market for memes is coming! Three major altcoins have potential for doubling recently!
The recent trend is actually not much different from our previous expectations, overall still slowly pushing up within small bullish candles. Why is it moving so slowly? It's simple; the main force is deliberately using time to wear down the patience and emotions of retail investors. Recently, after a rapid rebound from low levels, many people’s minds are still stuck in a consolidation phase, hesitant to enter the market at this stage. However, when the market rises slowly within this range for a week, the bullish sentiment in the market starts to slowly infect those who were hesitant. Once it breaks a new high later on, those who have been watching may easily chase in at high levels. However, to be honest, I am not too optimistic that Bitcoin can directly break $100,000 or higher in the short term.
Bitcoin at 100k is the moment for the explosive growth of altcoins! Which altcoins are the 100x wealth codes of this bull market!
Currently, I can't say for sure about Bitcoin's movement, but personally, I lean towards a further pullback. For altcoins, there is clearly a second buying opportunity. Tonight is crucial; we need to see if Bitcoin will attract more buyers—if it doesn't, it won't be able to fall much further, as many altcoins have already released significant volumes, and there is clear bottom support. If there is support, small positions can be arranged. Betting on Bitcoin short positions is not as good as betting on altcoin rebounds, as the profits are greater. Just take a look; most altcoins are in the bottom area. Altcoins may pull back in the short term, but as long as Bitcoin stops falling, altcoins will have the chance to surge.
Bitcoin is set to embark on a new round of increases! Signs of a surge! Is a big market trend coming for Bitcoin?
As the $100,000 mark comes into sight, bulls have set their sights on even higher targets—not just historical highs but also important milestones ahead. In this context, Standard Chartered Bank's Global Digital Asset Research Director Geoffrey Kendrick predicted in a report released on Monday (28) that Bitcoin is about to welcome the next wave of price increase. He proposed several indicators supporting this judgment: first, the U.S. Treasury yield curve premium (highly correlated with Bitcoin prices) has reached a 12-year high, possibly indicating bullish sentiment for Bitcoin; secondly, trading session analysis shows that U.S. investors are actively seeking non-U.S. assets, particularly evident since Trump previously announced a 90-day tariff grace period for all countries except China.
Bitcoin fluctuates after dipping to 93,000; Wall Street whales hint that the 100,000 mark is expected? BN's new coin SIGN draws attention!
This Monday, BTC prices have corrected as expected, which is normal during a period of low market liquidity. For investors, this BTC correction is seen as an entry opportunity. As long as prices do not fall below the key support level of 9 - 92, the market is unlikely to experience severe fluctuations; the current price adjustment may only be a short-term phenomenon.
Based on market analysis, before the interest rate cut in June, BTC prices are expected to fluctuate significantly in the range of 80,000 to 100,000 USD. After the interest rate cut, prices are expected to break through historical highs, reaching around 120,000 USD. However, a significant correction may occur in May, with prices possibly dipping to 90,000 USD, or even falling below 85,000 USD, creating an important bottom-fishing window.
Bitcoin falls below $93,000, with this week focused on the earnings reports of the tech giants, U.S. employment, and the subtle tariff war!
This week, the market focuses on the earnings performance of Wall Street tech giants, U.S. employment data, and U.S.-China trade relations, as these events and data will profoundly influence global stock markets and economic trends. Bitcoin continued to fluctuate narrowly between $94,000 and $95,000 over the weekend, until a noticeable decline occurred early this morning (28th), falling below $93,000, currently reported at $92,911 before publication. As the new week approaches, investors will face a series of key events and data that may bring significant volatility to the financial markets. Notably, the earnings season for technology giants, which is highly anticipated on Wall Street, the U.S. employment report, and the subtly changing U.S.-China trade relations are particularly worthy of attention.
The imminent delisting of Alpaca has led to a 10x surge; the crazier the rise now, the worse the fall when it gets delisted!
The main driving force behind this wave of market movement comes from the United States. The price of Bitcoin on Coinbase has consistently led that of Binance. Throughout last week, the inflow of capital into Bitcoin ETFs exceeded $3 billion. Coinbase, as the authority, explained that sovereign funds are buying crazily, which is the most important reason why Bitcoin soared from $85,000 to $95,000 last week. From the price trend, BTC only increased from $87,000 to $94,000, which is not an impressive overall rise, reflecting that the bearish sentiment in the market remains strong, with most people still leaning towards a bearish outlook. When it was about to break $90,000, the liquidation chart showed that there were hundreds of millions of dollars in short liquidations, but it was also a liquidation of leverage. Currently, if BTC does not choose to pull back, but instead continues to surge, the difficulty of breaking through the $100,000 mark in the short term is still present. This round of increase lacks obvious strong positive news to support it, making the possibility of sustained market movement relatively low. Over in the U.S., they are basically in a rest state over the weekend. Although it is a working day domestically, the trading volume is clearly not at the same level as before last Friday.
Many people get emotionally devastated after losing a bit of money, feeling like they want to die or live,
The most important thing in trading is to act. The reason why Liangzi is so impressive is that no matter how much he loses, he still dares to open up to a hundred times leverage, always having the courage to enter the market.
In martial arts films, a man's sign of despair is fear, cowardice, and not daring to continue.
A successful man usually has deep desires, strong means, and is unyielding, seizing every opportunity, not stopping until he succeeds.
If he has compassion, he will become a hero in the future. If he is cold-blooded, he will become the leader of an evil cult.
In real life, the vast majority of people become despondent after being beaten down a few times.
Those who are not despondent after being beaten down often can achieve success. And such people usually possess a fierce determination.
Many women are attracted to bad boys, which actually makes sense, because I have found that the psychological quality of bad people is stronger than that of good people. Good people break down emotionally when scolded, they may develop depression, like Cui Yongyuan. In contrast, bad people remain unfazed, like Sima Nan and Hu Xijin, still joking and laughing.
Not breaking down emotionally is the key to achieving success.
Being ruthless and merciless does not necessarily lead to success, but a weak character will definitely not lead to success.
Delisting announcement becomes a 'positive' news for the token, $ALPACA surges 650% against the trend, crushing the bears!
Among the tokens delisted in Binance's second round of voting, Alpaca is different from the other three tokens. After the announcement was made, it surged against the trend, with an astonishing increase of 650%, overturning the established impression in the market that 'delisting is a negative'. As for why Alpaca could rise against the trend, community KOLs provided three viewpoints.
The world's largest exchange, Binance, launched its first 'vote for delisting' activity on March 21. Up to now, Binance has held two token delisting votes. The results of the second vote for delisting will be announced on the 24th. Binance's official announcement states that the spot trading pairs for the four tokens: $ALPACA, $PDA, VIB, and $WING will be delisted and trading will stop on May 2, 2025, at 11 AM.
Bitcoin Struggles to Break High, Beware of Short-Term Pullback? Latest BTC Trend Analysis
Current Market Overview Last night, Bitcoin once again attempted to break **95.5k**, but has been in a high-level consolidation for two consecutive days, with upward momentum weakening! Although the price has reached a new high, the RSI indicator is diverging, indicating insufficient bullish strength, and a pullback risk should be monitored in the short term.
Key Signal Interpretation
1️⃣ **95.5k-96.5k Strong Resistance Zone**: Multiple attempts have failed to break through, forming a high-pressure zone; a breakthrough requires accompanying volume, otherwise it is likely to fall back.
2️⃣ **Market Sentiment Overheated**: The number of buyers chasing the price near 95k has surged, but the price is stagnating; be cautious of a “whale cutting leeks” market.
3️⃣ **RSI Top Divergence**: The price is at a new high but momentum is declining, increasing the probability of a short-term pullback, with support seen at **93k-92k**.
Operational Suggestions* **Short-term Players**: If it falls below 93k with increased volume, consider light short positions (target 92k-90k), with strict stop loss above 95k. **Holders**: It is recommended to take profits in batches for high-position long positions, or set a stop loss at 93k to protect profits and avoid profit reversal. **Bottom Fishers**: Be patient and wait. If it stabilizes at 90k-88k (low volume + RSI oversold), it may be a buying opportunity!
