š„ What's hot in crypto today? | 4/5 Recap A day full of "political flavor" with Satoshi's birthday, stablecoins under SEC scrutiny, and $BTC officially becoming a reserve asset of the United States
š 1. Satoshi Nakamoto officially turns... 50! + According to records from the P2P Foundation, the creator of Bitcoin (who remains anonymous) was born on 4/5/1975. + In a year when Bitcoin surpassed $100K and is seen by the US as a strategic reserve asset, this birthday has become even more meaningful. + Satoshi's wallet, containing over 1 million BTC, has remained completely "still" for 16 years.
šļø 2. SEC announces new guidelines on stablecoins The SEC categorizes a new group called "covered stablecoins" ā not considered securities if: + Fully backed by cash or highly liquid assets; + Can be exchanged 1:1 for USD at any time; + Do not pay interest, share profits, or invest from the backing assets; + The backing assets must be separated from the operational capital of the issuing organization. ā”ļø This means that stablecoins like USDC, USDP could be "legitimized" soon, while new models like algorithmic stablecoins or yield-stablecoins still lack clear regulations.
ā 3. SEC commissioner opposes this policy Caroline Crenshaw, who has long been skeptical of crypto, reacted strongly to the new decision: "The SEC is underestimating the risks of the stablecoin market and misrepresenting their stability and backing capabilities."
She worries that the new standards could create a "false sense of security" for users and lead to systemic risks.
Can Bitcoin Rise Again to $100K? "Gold Leads, BTC Follows" Returns
#BTC Bitcoin is showing signs of decoupling from the trends of stocks and gold, especially after President Trump's global tariff announcement on April 2. While the S&P 500 dropped sharply by 10.65%, and gold fell from its peak of $3,167 to 4.8%, Bitcoin recovered over 4.5%, exceeding $84,700.

š The Final Altcoin Season? Only A Few Will Benefit! According to expert Jamie Coutts from Real Vision, altcoins may be about to have a final surge in this cycle ā but only truly quality projects with strong network activity will see significant price increases.
Coutts shared during the livestream on April 3: "I believe there will be one last big bounce from altcoins. But only projects with returning users and strong network activity will recover clearly."
š Altcoins Are In A Stagnation Phase Data shows that the altcoin market is weak: + Altcoin Season Index: the index is at 14/100, still leaning towards the āBitcoin seasonā. + Altcoin Speculation Index from Capriole: sharply decreased to 12%, the lowest since late 2023. + The number of active wallets on Solana ($SOL ) decreased by 40% from November 2024 to February 2025.
š When Will The Altcoin Season Return? šCoutts predicts that June will be the time when altcoins start to bounce back strongly, if Bitcoin reaches a new peak beforehand.
This aligns with his previous forecast: "$BTC may reach ATH by the end of Q2, regardless of political developments like Trumpās taxes or recession concerns."
š Note: Is Dominance No Longer The Main Signal? š Although Bitcoin Dominance is currently at 62.84%, some experts, such as CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, suggest: "Dominance is no longer an accurate indicator for altseason ā trading volume is what matters more."

Bitcoin DeFi (BTCFi) Explosion ā Is BTC Becoming a Profit-Generating Asset?
#BTC ($BTC ) is no longer just 'digital gold' for storing value ā but is gradually becoming a profit-generating asset thanks to the boom of BTCFi, according to a new report from Binance. š BTCFi Increased 2,700% in One Year The total value locked (TVL) in DeFi protocols on the Bitcoin platform has increased by over 2,700% in the past year, surpassing the $8.6 billion mark.
BTCFi ā the concept refers to DeFi applications built on Bitcoin ā is opening up opportunities for holders to earn profits from BTC through lending, providing liquidity, and other DeFi mechanisms.
š $XRP Maintain Level $2 ā Technical Model Suggests Increase of 73% After the market-wide decline, XRP quickly stabilized around the support level of $2.06, and is now showing early signals of a bullish breakout.
š Symmetrical Triangle Pattern Suggests Breakout From January 16 to April 3, the daily chart of XRP formed a symmetrical triangle pattern ā a technical signal for strong bullish potential.
Currently, XRP is retesting the lower trendline at $1.98 ā where it had previously bounced strongly 2-3 times, opening the possibility of bouncing back if trading volume supports it.
If the price surpasses the upper trendline at $2.40 (coinciding with the 50-day SMA), the next target is $3.51 ā equivalent to an increase of ~73% from the current price.
šµ RLUSD Stablecoin Accelerates ā Boost for XRP? Ripple has just integrated the RLUSD stablecoin into the Ripple Payments cross-border payment system ā an important step to increase liquidity and practical application for XRP.
RLUSD was issued from December 2024, with a current market capitalization of $244 million, up 87% in just March (according to rwa.xyz).
RLUSD plays the role of maintaining price stability, while XRP serves as a fast payment bridge & high liquidity.
The RLUSD/XRP trading pairs on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) could also boost volume and reduce the circulating supply of XRP, contributing to price increases.
š® Price Increase Predictions from Experts
Alva: "RLUSD is a strategic move, helping to strengthen the Ripple ecosystem & increase stablecoin adoption."
Dark Defender (Elliott Wave): "XRP will finish its correction within weeks, with a medium-long term target from $5 to $18."
CasiTrades: "RSI across multiple time frames indicates a bottom has formed ā the next target is $3.80."
š¬ Do you think XRP will explode and reach new highs?
Cardano (ADA) is showing breakthrough potential with its expanding DeFi ecosystem, attractive yields, and the possibility of being included in the U.S. Digital Asset Reserve.
1ļøā£ Exploding DeFi Ecosystem
Cardano is undergoing a significant upgrade with Hydra Layer 2, achieving nearly 1 million transactions per second in testing. Compared to Solana ā which has seen a 40% transaction failure rate in the last 30 days, Cardano proves superior in reliability and performance, attracting more developers & users.
2ļøā£ Attractive DeFi Yields
DeFi platforms on Cardano are delivering extremely attractive returns: + 28% APY for stablecoins + 20% APY for wrapped Bitcoin While part of the profits is paid in INDY token, the high yield still provides a strong incentive to hold & use ADA.
3ļøā£ Potential Collaboration with the U.S. Government On March 3, Donald Trump mentioned $ADA along with $ETH & $XRP as candidates for the U.S. Digital Asset Reserve, causing ADA's price to surge to $1.18. Although there is no official confirmation yet, the DC Blockchain Summit 2025, featuring Charles Hoskinson & Donald Trump Jr., is raising many expectations. If World Liberty Financial's USD1 stablecoin launches on Cardano, ADA could greatly benefit.
š Will ADA Reach a New Peak? Currently, ADA is trading at $0.7634, up 8% from March 23-25, testing the resistance level of $0.76. Although it has not reached the peak of $1.18 on March 3, the optimistic sentiment remains strong due to Charles Hoskinson's efforts in promoting Cardano to traditional financial leaders.
š What do you think? Can ADA explode this year? š
šŗ If BTC exceeds $91,000 ā Triggers a stronger upward momentum.
š 2025 Prospects
With a 75% chance of hitting a new peak, Bitcoin is entering a crucial phase. Maintaining and surpassing strategic price levels will determine the market's next direction.

$BTC Building a Bottom: Is It the Right Time to Buy? Is Bitcoin Ready to Break Out to $90,000? According to analyst Markus Thielen from 10x Research, Bitcoin seems to have hit the bottom and is preparing for a new price surge. Two main factors are supporting this trend: + Trump Eases Stance on Tariffs: U.S. President Donald Trump has recently shown a "flexible" approach to the tariff policy set to take effect on April 2, easing previous concerns. This creates a positive sentiment in the financial market, including cryptocurrency. + Federal Reserve Stays Firm: In the meeting on March 18-19, the Fed indicated that they would not be pressured by short-term inflation, paving the way for potential policy easing in the future. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell even adopted a "moderate" tone, reinforcing confidence that the stock and cryptocurrency markets will soon recover.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $86,720 (up 3.25% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinGecko). The 21-day moving average of BTC reached $85,200, and weekly reversal signals are turning positive. Thielen notes that this is the level where past price surges have restarted, such as in September 2023 (thanks to the Bitcoin ETF story) or August 2024 (ahead of the U.S. elections).
Altcoins Are Also Heating Up Not just Bitcoin, many altcoins are also breaking away from the downtrend: + Ether (ETH): $2,050, up 4.3% in the past week. + Tron ($TRX ): $0.2282, up 6.4%. + Avalanche ($AVAX ): $21.56, up 8.9%.
This is a great opportunity for investors to diversify their portfolios and optimize profits.

$BNB BNB price analysis The current price of BNB is $626.90, which has closed above the 50-day moving average (SMA 50) of $618 on March 17, but the bulls are struggling to maintain higher price levels. It is expected that the pullback will find support at the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA 20) of $602. If the price bounces off the EMA 20 with strong momentum, it will indicate a shift in market sentiment from selling on price increases to buying on price decreases. This increases the likelihood of the price breaking the $644 mark. The BNB/USDT pair could then rise to $686. Conversely, if the price breaks and closes below the EMA 20, it indicates that the buyers are taking profits. This could lead the pair to drop to $550
Crypto news today (March 20, 2025): SEC drops lawsuit against Ripple, Solana CEO apologizes for controversial advertisement
Ā Ā Today, the crypto market is highlighted by two major events. The SEC has dropped the lawsuit against Ripple that has been ongoing since 2021, marking a victory for XRP. CEO Brad Garlinghouse called this a "moment waited for" and a "victory for the crypto industry." Lawyer John Deaton affirmed that XRP is not a security, and Ripple may renegotiate the $125 million fine, especially after the U.S. political landscape changes with Trumpās election.
Ā Ā At the same time, CEO of $SOL Labs, Anatoly Yakovenko, apologized for the controversial advertisement "America Is Back" which targeted gender identity. He acknowledged it was a "terrible act," expressed regret on X on March 19, and committed to steering clear of cultural controversies, focusing on technology instead. This advertisement previously garnered 1.2 million views before being removed.
Ā Ā Ripple's victory over the SEC not only reinforces the position of $XRP but could also change how U.S. regulators approach the crypto industry in the future, especially in the new political context. Conversely, Solana's incident serves as a warning for major projects about the importance of managing public image and messaging. Both events are attracting significant attention from the global cryptocurrency community.
