#CryptoComeback
The tag #CryptoComeback refers to "The Return of Cryptocurrencies" — meaning the recovery of the cryptocurrency market after a period of decline or recession.

In May 2025, the market is indeed witnessing a significant recovery, as evidenced by:

1. Bitcoin:

Its price has surpassed $100,000 for the first time since February, currently trading at approximately $102,961.

This rise is attributed to an improved overall sentiment in the markets, and expectations of more supportive regulatory measures for cryptocurrencies, especially after Trump's victory in the U.S. presidency.

2. Other cryptocurrencies (Altcoins) are also recovering:

Ethereum (ETH) has unexpectedly surged by over 22% to reach $2,325, with expectations to reach $2,900.

BNB at $635.

Cardano (ADA) has risen to $0.78.

XRP reached $2.35.

Coins like PEPE increased by about 40% with the potential to rise by 65%.

3. The main reasons for the recovery:

New trade agreements between the United States and the United Kingdom.

The trend of some U.S. states like Arizona and New Hampshire to legalize and support cryptocurrencies.

Trump's administration announcement of the establishment of a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve."

#BTCBreaks99K

Bitcoin is the most famous digital (cryptocurrency) in the world.

Previously, the highest price it reached was around $69,000 in November 2021.

If the price reaches $99,000 or exceeds it, this is considered a very significant jump in value.

What are the reasons for this potential rise?

1. Interest from major financial institutions: such as investment funds or banks that have started buying Bitcoin.

2. The launch of Bitcoin ETFs on American exchanges.

3. Decreased interest rates or inflation, leading people to seek tools for preserving value.

4. Scarcity: The number of Bitcoins is limited (only 21 million), and over time, the supply decreases.

#BTCBackto100K
The arrival of Bitcoin (#BTCBackto100K) back to $100,000 is a major event in the cryptocurrency market, and here is a simplified explanation of what it means:

What happened?

The price of Bitcoin surpassed $100,000 for the first time since January 2025, reaching as high as $101,370 during the day.

Why did the price rise?

1. Improvement in global economic conditions: Trade tensions between major countries have eased, supporting risk assets like Bitcoin.

2. Increase in institutional investments: Major financial institutions have started injecting money into Bitcoin ETF funds.

3. Greater governmental and legislative adoption: Some U.S. states like Arizona and New Hampshire are studying the adoption of reserves in digital currencies.

Will it continue to rise?

Some analysts expect it to rise to $120,000 or even $200,000 before the end of 2025.

But there is a warning about potential short-term volatility due to technical indicators suggesting overbought conditions.

What does this mean for you as an investor or interested party?

If you are an investor, it might be an opportunity for review or expansion.

If you are following the market, this is a good time to monitor regulatory and financial shifts in cryptocurrencies.

#USStablecoinBill
The Stablecoin Bill in the United States (#USStablecoinBill), known as the GENIUS Act, is an attempt to establish a federal regulatory framework for stablecoins for the first time in the country. However, the bill is currently facing a severe political crisis that threatens its future.

What is happening?

Democratic Withdrawal: Nine Democratic senators who initially supported the bill have recently withdrawn their support.

Reasons for Withdrawal: Democrats say the revised version of the bill does not adequately address money laundering issues or risks to the financial system.

Political Controversy: There are reports that the bill could benefit a stablecoin company linked to former President Donald Trump, in a deal valued at two billion dollars. This connection has raised suspicions and prompted Democrats to reconsider.

Why is this bill important?

Stablecoins are widely used in the digital currency world because they tie their value to a traditional currency (like the dollar), making them more stable.

The absence of a clear federal regulation creates a legal void that could lead to economic and security risks.

What to expect?

The bill may stall or be disrupted if the disagreement between the parties continues.

The outcome will significantly affect the future of digital currency regulation in America and may also have global implications due to the dollar's status.

#MarketPullback
The term "Market Pullback" refers to a temporary decline in stock prices or financial indexes, typically ranging from 5% to 10% from their recent peak.

Further explanation:

This pullback occurs due to profit-taking, economic concerns, political events, or even due to high valuations of stocks.

A sharp or short pullback is not necessarily the beginning of a market crash, but is often a healthy correction for the market.

Example:

If an index like "Nasdaq" rises to 15,000 points and then drops to 13,800 points, this is considered a pullback of about 8%.

How do investors behave?

Some investors see the pullback as an opportunity to buy at lower prices.

Others may see it as a warning sign of a larger drop to come.

#EUPrivacyCoinBan

The European Union has decided to ban privacy coins like Monero and Zcash starting July 2027, as part of a new anti-money laundering law.

#AltcoinETFsPostponed

XRP (Ripple)

Dogecoin (DOGE)

Solana (SOL)

Litecoin (LTC)

Details:

The decision on the XRP fund by Franklin Templeton has been postponed to June 17, 2025.

The decision on the Dogecoin fund by Bitwise has been postponed to June 15, 2025.

As for Solana and Litecoin, their decisions have been postponed to October 2025.

Reason:

These postponements are procedural and technical, aimed at giving the commission additional time to review the applications.

There is speculation that the anticipated change in the chair of the SEC (Gary Gensler) may affect the course of these decisions later.

Analysts' Perspective:

Some analysts (like James Seyfart from Bloomberg) believe that the commission will extend the deadline to the maximum, with the possibility of making a final decision in October 2025.

The postponement is not considered a rejection but is part of the normal process that the commission follows with cryptocurrency filings.
