The price of Bitcoin (BTC) could rise to levels from $500,000 to $1 million by the end of the current cycle, said Binance crypto exchange founder Changpeng Zhao on the Rug Radio podcast, which is part of the Decrypt group of companies. He clarified that he is not certain about the duration of the cycle itself.
In response to the host's question about what the total market capitalization of cryptocurrency will be by the end of this year, Zhao mentioned $5 trillion but emphasized that this is a forecast for the end of the cycle, not the end of the year. According to him, it is becoming increasingly difficult to predict its duration.

In April, Solana network validators implemented an emergency update to address a serious security vulnerability that could have allowed attackers to issue and steal tokens.

[SOL] is misleading — here's why!

High fees on the Solana blockchain may not guarantee price growth

Negative net flows and a decrease in active addresses have diminished SOL's growth potential

Over the past week, Solana has struggled to make any significant moves in the market, with the asset dropping just under 3% on the charts. Although the altcoin has seen a slight increase over the last 24 hours, this growth has had little impact on SOL's condition.

According to journalists, he is expected to earn profits from two crypto events.

In May 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump plans to make millions from crypto events. This was reported by CNBC.
According to journalists, two events will take place over the month. In particular, on May 5, a charity dinner costing 'around $1.5 million per plate' will be held. The Crypto & AI Innovators Dinner will be attended by White House advisor on cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence David Sachs.

Elon Musk has stirred the crypto world by changing his name on the banned social network X in Russia. His new nickname 'Gorklon Rust', which refers to his chatbot Grok AI, acted as a catalyst for the growth of some meme coins.

The Cardano chart paints a neutral picture regarding the short-term price prospects of ADA. Currently, ADA is between the 50DMA at $1.0148 and the 21DMA at $0.94, as well as being around the middle of its recent range of $0.75-$1.30.

Moreover, its 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is around 50, indicating that short-term market conditions are neither overbought nor oversold— a reading below 30 indicates an oversold market, while a reading above 70 indicates an overbought market. The indecisive tone of ADA trading should not come as too much of a surprise given the fundamental backdrop.

A recent report by the head of research at one of the blockchain research companies indicates that the price volatility of Bitcoin has reached a new minimum in 563 days. This seems to herald the popularization of Bitcoin. K33 Research's head of research, Vetle Lunde, noted in his remarkable article about Crypto X on April 30 that the 7-day volatility of tokens has just reached a new minimum in 563 days. At the same time, the 30-day price volatility of Bitcoin against the US dollar has been steadily decreasing. According to data from BitBo and TheBlock, since 2011, as well as since 2021, Bitcoin's volatility continues to decline. Is low volatility of Bitcoin a positive or negative signal for the price? Low volatility can be beneficial for tokens and stocks. This is because during a bull market, prices tend to rise with an increase in trading volume, while pullbacks occur more sharply. Therefore, some traders may interpret low volatility as a signal to sell or wait. However, technical charts of Bitcoin established this threshold during a strong recovery of Bitcoin on Wall Street and on token exchanges. Thus, it is difficult to view this as a bearish signal and include it in the overall picture. On the contrary, low volatility of Bitcoin may simply be a consequence of the current market capitalization of Bitcoin being so high, close to the level of 2 trillion dollars in early May, and liquidity becoming smoother. "Whale" level participants no longer have as much impact on overall market volatility as they did in the past. Fidelity: the volatility of many stocks is higher than that of Bitcoin. Overall, this represents a bullish threshold for Bitcoin. This means that the rate of growth of the network's market capitalization is so astonishing that it no longer fluctuates like a small boat at sea. On the contrary, it resembles a large, strong, majestic ocean liner more. Fidelity Digital Assets' research from last year pointed out some interesting facts about the price volatility of Bitcoin, for example: "Although Bitcoin's volatility is high, it is lower than that of many popular large stocks." This major investment company based in Boston also noted: "Currently, Bitcoin's volatility is lower than that of 33 stocks from the S&P 500 index, and as of the end of 2023, still 92 stocks from the S&P 500 index have volatility higher than that of Bitcoin." The report accurately predicted: "Bitcoin's volatility has decreased and is expected to continue to decrease." At the same time, the price of Bitcoin quickly rose after falling below $75,000 in early April and is moving towards a target of $100,000.
