The cryptocurrency market is coming alive! After tense months caused by Donald Trump's tariffs, the crypto market has breathed a sigh of relief. Bitcoin has once again surpassed the $100,000 mark, jumping 7.6% over the week, thanks to a temporary freeze on tariffs between the U.S. and China. Ethereum has crossed $2,000, while Dogecoin and Cardano have each gained 10%. Investors, inspired by trading optimism, are returning to buying. The Fear and Greed Index has risen to 72, signaling growing confidence. Analysts predict further growth if negotiations continue to ease geopolitical tensions. Trump's crypto summit at the White House could become a new catalyst.
Interesting summary for this month — CERN experiment: a quantum computer generated 10 BTC in an hour, sparking debates about the future of mining. Meanwhile, Bhutan launched crypto tourism with Binance Pay, and in Dubai, government services can now be paid for with USDT. The market is awaiting the HODL summit in Dubai.
Bitcoin has once again surpassed the $100,000 mark, jumping 6% after news of a trade agreement between the US and the UK that eased the tension of Trump's tariff policy. Ethereum surged 14% to $2050, showing the best performance since 2021. Altcoins, including XRP, are also rising, supported by investor optimism. BlackRock reported a record inflow of $356 million into its Bitcoin ETF. Cryptocurrency payments have been launched for government services in Dubai, and Bhutan has implemented crypto tourism with Binance Pay. Polymarket predicts an 18% chance of Bitcoin rising to $200,000 by 2025.
Litecoin and Ethereum are two veterans of the crypto market, but they are like brothers with different personalities. LTC is the quick guy for payments: a block is confirmed in 2.5 minutes, and the fees are pennies, around $0.04. I looked at the trends: it is currently trading around $100, and people are actively using the network — 401,000 addresses per day. Ethereum, on the other hand, is like the older brother with big plans: smart contracts, DeFi, NFT. But for speed and flexibility, you pay — gas fees can be $0.17 and higher, and a block takes 14-15 seconds. LTC is simpler and cheaper, ETH is more powerful but more complex. The choice depends on what is closer to you: fast transfers or the world of dApps.
Ripple technology is actively being implemented in the banking sector, offering solutions to accelerate cross-border transactions. Given the projected growth of the international payments market to $250 trillion by 2030, XRP has a good chance of establishing itself as a standard for interbank settlements. Among cryptocurrency investors are both large corporations (such as the Japanese financial giant SBI Holdings) and millions of individual traders. The XRP community is known for its loyalty: even at the peak of regulatory pressure, many holders were reluctant to part with the asset, waiting for its positions to recover. This confirms the long-term belief in the project. The company collaborates with more than 300 financial organizations, including Santander, Bank of America, and MoneyGram. The CBDC Advisor initiative, in which Ripple assists central banks in developing digital currencies based on its blockchain, is of particular interest. Such projects not only expand the use of the technology but also strengthen the integration of XRP into the global financial infrastructure.
I looked into the data from Solscan: in the last week, new wallets have increased by 8%, and daily transactions are holding around 30 million. This indicates that people are actively using the network — transfers, NFTs, DeFi. But here's what is curious: large holders (from 10k SOL) have slowed down, while smaller ones (up to 100 SOL) are accumulating. The price is currently around $150. If the small players continue to buy, expect a rise to $180. As long as the wallet is moving — SOL is alive!
April 2025, and Bitcoin is once again in the spotlight — trading around $95K. But here's what's frustrating: Solana, Ethereum, and other altcoins have crashed as if someone pulled the plug. Why? Whales — those fat wallets with millions — are stirring the waters again. On X, it’s reported that major holders are dumping SOL and ETH on exchanges, crashing the prices: Solana has dropped to $150, Ethereum is barely holding at $1800. Trading volumes are rising, but that's not saving it — whales are playing with the nerves of small traders. While BTC stands strong like a rock, altcoins are sinking. This is their show, and we are just spectators!
Trump's import tariffs hit like a sledgehammer: while he boasts about a 'strong America', cryptocurrency prices are falling and panic is rising. Bitcoin is still holding on somehow, but the rest of the market is in the red zone, and investors are fleeing in all directions. Everyone on the internet is shouting about a crisis, and I'm feeling the pressure too. I decided to diversify my portfolio: I left part in the market leader, transferred some into stablecoins — safety above all, and I threw a little into undervalued tokens, just in case they take off. Trump promises a 'crypto-future', but for now it looks more like chaos. I'm waiting and watching!
On March 7, Trump gathered the bosses of the crypto industry — from the CEO of Coinbase to the Winklevoss twins. On the agenda — the reserve of Bitcoin and other tokens like ETH and XRP. Prices initially surged after his tweet about "superpower BTC," but then slightly deflated — whales started to sell off. Trump promised to remove bureaucratic chains from crypto, and X is buzzing: it’s either a leap into the stratosphere or another loud fizzle. In any case, it won't be boring!
March 2025 — and Bitcoin is back in the spotlight, this time thanks to Trump. The new president pushed the idea: to make BTC part of the national reserve, like gold in the good old days. On X, people went crazy — the price surged to $96K just a couple of days after his tweet "Bitcoin is tremendous!". However, it then pulled back to $92K — whales seem to have decided to cash in on the hype. This is not just words: the authorities already hold 213K BTC from confiscations and plan to buy more. Politics are changing — the U.S. is now not against crypto, but for it. What's next? Hold on tight, it's going to get hot!
Every time Bitcoin approaches that coveted level of $100,000, there is a feeling that it's finally here. But, as if by magic, the price drops again. Why does this happen? First of all, the cryptocurrency market is an adrenaline rush, where many investors buy on rumors and sell on news. As soon as the price reaches its peak, people start taking profits, which causes a decline. Regulatory news also contributes - as soon as governments start talking about new rules or bans, the market begins to panic. And let's not forget about the charming macroeconomic surprises, such as changes in interest rates or inflation shocks, which force investors to rethink their portfolios. As a result, Bitcoin still cannot hold its ground at this height, like a climber who keeps sliding back to base.
The USA is preparing for a crypto-revolution, and it's all thanks to Trump! In March 2025, he loudly announced on Truth Social: America is creating a reserve of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. This is not just words — he wants to make the States the "crypto-capital of the world." Imagine: billions of dollars in tokens that are already in the pockets of authorities after seizures, plus new purchases. Coin prices shot up like a rocket, but then cooled slightly — the market is nervous. Whales are already rubbing their hands, while small traders are guessing: is this a surge or another crash? While everyone is waiting for details, one thing is clear — Trump is playing big!
BNB — it's like a Swiss Army knife in the crypto world, really. You can cut exchange fees, participate in launchpads, and even pay for various things in the Binance ecosystem. But what’s next? I believe BNB has fire prospects. Especially with Binance Smart Chain, where it takes the lead. As long as Binance grows, BNB will only strengthen. Yes, regulators may throw some problems, but if the exchange continues to lead, the token will become even cooler. In short, BNB is like a bet that one of the most powerful crypto empires will continue to dominate.
Trump, who previously called Bitcoin "a fraud," is now shaking hands with crypto sharks. He has already announced on Truth Social the creation of a U.S. crypto reserve with BTC, ETH, XRP, and other tokens, promising to make America the "crypto-capital." In Congress, he would probably outline how whales with billions will help the economy, while also poking fun at Biden for his "corruption attacks" on the industry. All with his signature "it will be great, believe me!" — and no dullness, just drive.
In March 2025, the White House turned into an arena for the crypto party — the first summit on digital assets in history! Trump, as always, is in the spotlight: on March 7, he gathered the bosses of the crypto industry — from the CEO of Coinbase to the Winklevoss twins. On the agenda — the reserve of Bitcoin and other tokens like ETH and XRP. Prices initially surged after his tweet about "the superpower of BTC," but then slightly deflated — whales started to sell off. Trump promised to remove bureaucratic shackles from crypto, and X is buzzing: it's either a leap into the stratosphere or another loud flop. In any case, it won't be boring!
Shift in Bitcoin Policy: The US Changes the Game Bitcoin in March 2025 is no longer just a geek's dream, but a real topic for big politics. Trump, barely taking office, signed an executive order to create a strategic reserve of BTC — and the market surged! The price surpassed $94K when he hinted at it on Truth Social, then slightly retraced — whales apparently decided to offload some reserves. Posts on X are buzzing: some are shouting about freedom, while others fear it might be a bubble. The states are now not just watching — they want to steer the crypto world. While everyone is guessing: is this a rise or yet another trick?
March 2025 for XRP began with a deafening noise! Trump announced at the beginning of the month on Truth Social that XRP would enter the US crypto reserve alongside BTC, ETH, SOL, and ADA. The price surged by 33%, reaching $2.90, and the network buzzed with excitement — posts on X were literally exploding! Then, however, it slightly pulled back to $2.60 — whales seemed to decide to take profits. On top of that, there are rumors that the case with the SEC could be resolved by the end of March, and that's like gasoline to the fire for traders. XRP clearly doesn't let anyone get bored!
Cardano with its Proof-of-Stake consumes less energy than Bitcoin and promises security like a Swiss bank. Today ADA is trading around $0.95 and recently shot up by 13% — thanks to Trump, who mentioned it in his US crypto reserve. It's like a front-row ticket to the show of the future — just hold on tight, it's going to shake!
Cryptocurrency whales are not just rich people, but real market sharks who pour in and out millions, if not billions of dollars. Imagine: one such "whale" recently transferred 50,000 ETH to Bybit - it's like a truck with money crashed into a party! They can raise the price of a token or collapse it in one fell swoop, leaving small traders in shock. Take at least that case with SHIB in 2021 - whales bought up 70% of tokens and inflated the capitalization to $20 billion. These guys are not just players, but those who write the rules of the game. Watching them is like watching a storm: exciting, but dangerous!
Bybit recently came under attack — hackers stole $1.4 billion in Ether straight from a cold wallet. It's like robbers robbing a bank safe while the security guards were drinking coffee. CEO Ben Zhou immediately went on air, saying, "everything is under control, your money is fine." It turned out that the thieves replaced the Safe wallet interface, and the team signed a fake transaction. They say that North Korean hackers from Lazarus Group are behind this — they are real masters. The market was predictably shaken, but Bybit promises to cover the losses. The only question is: who's next in line?
