This collaboration will revolutionize the daily use of cryptocurrencies.

MoonPay, a recognized cryptocurrency payment infrastructure company, brings its expertise in Web3, facilitating a smooth transition for users between fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies.

The Mastercard-MoonPay stablecoin card changes this by allowing users to spend their cryptocurrencies directly without complex conversions or delays.

#CryptoRegulation Regulations on cryptocurrencies are the current legal rules and guidelines issued by governments to regulate the operation of digital assets, such as virtual currencies. These laws have diverse approaches depending on the country.
In the U.S., there are several states where some are friendly to market participants adopting cryptocurrencies with clear regulations, while others prohibit them altogether.
Around 60% of U.S. citizens distrust trading or investing in cryptocurrencies, as they consider existing systems to be unreliable or unsafe. One of the main reasons for this distrust may be the absence of a single and coherent set of laws regulating cryptocurrencies.
$BTC The cryptocurrency market maintains its upward momentum this Wednesday. Bitcoin (BTC) is advancing moderately and is around $103,900, according to Binance, while Ethereum (ETH) is up 2.3% to $2,600 and has increased more than 40% in the last 7 days. Despite the good moment, some analysts warn that this recovery could have a near ceiling. "The strengthening of the dollar, driven by recent news about tariffs, has acted as a natural brake on digital assets," explained Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro. According to the specialist, this is exacerbated by Bitcoin's proximity to its all-time highs, which fuels profit-taking after a rally of more than a month.
#TrumpTariffs Tariffs during Donald Trump's second presidency The import tariffs during Donald Trump's second presidency, referred to by the media as a tariff war, have reflected an intensification of protectionist trade policies in the United States, with President Donald Trump announcing a series of high import tariffs affecting all of his trading partners. While his first administration imposed tariffs on approximately $380 billion in imports, the total under his second administration is projected to exceed $1.4 trillion by April 2025.[1]
Trump resumed the trade war between China and the United States, raising tariffs on China up to 145%.[2][3] He also initiated a second trade war with Canada and Mexico by imposing a 25% tariff on most Canadian and Mexican products, although he later indefinitely exempted all goods that complied with the USMCA.[4] Trump justified these actions as a means to hold these countries accountable for illegal drug trafficking and irregular immigration, in addition to supporting domestic manufacturing.[5][6] On March 12, 2025, a global 25% tariff on steel and aluminum products went into effect.

Bitcoin rose after the U.S. released weak economic figures last week. A key report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis showed that the economy contracted by 0.3% in the first quarter, while imports increased. Another key data point revealed that U.S. consumer confidence plummeted in August.

#BTCBreaks99K Hello good morning: Bitcoin has increased by 31.8% in the last month, reaching $99,388, its highest level since February 2025. Analysts predict that BTC will soon surpass the $100,000 mark, supported by strong ETF inflows and positive market sentiment. The inflows of stablecoins to exchanges and legislative progress are fueling optimism, suggesting more bullish momentum ahead. In the early hours of Asian trading, the largest cryptocurrency reached $99,388, marking its highest price since February 21, 2025. At the time of publication, the price of Bitcoin had adjusted to $98,874. Data from BeInCrypto showed that the cryptocurrency experienced a slight decline of 0.3% in the last hour.
$BTC Bitcoin is recovering after the tariff chaos, and public companies like Metaplanet are making significant acquisitions. The firm purchased $28.2 million in the asset, almost a $2 million increase since last week.
However, despite this new confidence, Metaplanet's stocks have continued to show unstable performance. The crypto market shows cautious optimism, but that will not immediately translate into big gains. Although some corporate Bitcoin whales briefly paused their large purchases recently, the markets are starting to heat up again. Metaplanet began buying during the dip last week, and Bitcoin has been making steady progress since then. Trump's tariff threats caused great uncertainty and cryptocurrency sell-offs in recent weeks. However, since announcing a pause, cryptocurrencies and stocks related to the industry have been on a rally.
Whales like Metaplanet and MicroStrategy immediately started buying Bitcoin, and the entire market is on the rise. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index was recently in Extreme Fear but has greatly recovered. Still, the markets are showing cautious optimism, not a full rally.
$TRUMP Donald Trump's memecoin skyrockets The initial success of TRUMP can be attributed to its strategic narrative, linked to the political figure of Donald Trump. This approach has captured the attention of investors and enthusiasts, attracting significant liquidity to the TRUMP/SOL trading pair. Additionally, Solana's performance also benefited, with SOL reaching a new all-time high of $285.
However, TRUMP's meteoric rise raises questions about its long-term sustainability. While its tokenomics, with an 80% locked supply, could stabilize its price, it also limits flexibility to address market volatility.
Despite its initial impact, dethroning Dogecoin will not be an easy task. DOGE has established itself as the leading memecoin due to its loyal community and growing adoption. Among Dogecoin's competitive advantages are: History and trust: DOGE has a track record that has withstood volatile market cycles. This stability has strengthened ties with investors. Backing and use cases: From payments in stores to integrations in technology platforms, Dogecoin has demonstrated its utility in the real world. Elon Musk's backing has also been crucial for its growth. In contrast, TRUMP faces risks associated with its political narrative. While this gives it a unique appeal, it could also limit its global reach by polarizing users. Additionally, the lack of use cases beyond speculation could hinder its adoption.
The price prediction for 2025 is optimistic, but how much will Bitcoin rise? After surpassing $100,000 in December 2024, the next low in 2025 could be around $59,537. Although we have averaged a decline of 72.51%, the drops are not as steep between six and 18 months after a halving.
The drop could materialize in early 2025, before reaching new highs, just as it happened 18 months after the 2020 halving. An increase of 561% is possible, but liquidations by asset managers after the ETFs could reduce this forecast to 217%.
If Bitcoin reaches a level close to $200,000 in 2025 or 2026, a correction of 50% could begin. Profitable miners might want to sell, prompting ETF sell-offs. This could lead to a deeper correction in 2027, with a drop of up to 72%.
The price could plummet to $51,466 by late 2026 or early 2027. From there, the increase could be limited, with a rise in 2027 to $124.7 thousand. We expect the price analysis for 2026 to yield an ROI of 47.6% from the levels of December 2024.
