BCH Price Prediction: Oversold Bounce to $385 by June Despite Bearish Undertow

BCHs Technical Reality Check　　Bitcoin Cash is deep in oversold territory with RSI hammered down to 24.62, creating textbook bounce conditions that typically trigger reflexive buying from momentum traders. The price action tells a brutal story – BCH has been methodically grinding below every meaningful moving average, sitting 31% below its 200-day SMA at $508.　　The MACD histogram flatlined at zero reveals momentum has completely stalled after the recent selloff. BCH‘s position at 0.15 within the Bollinger Bands means it’s essentially hugging the lower band support at $323.71. This technical setup indicates short-term oversold relief, but the bigger picture remains structurally damaged.　　The current positioning suggests institutional players may be preparing for this bounce despite broader bearish sentiment, as Blockchain.news market analysis indicates contrarian setups often emerge at these technical extremes.　　Volume & Price Alignment　　The derivatives market is painting a contrarian picture. Negative funding rates at -0.0417% mean shorts are literally paying longs to hold their positions – a sign of oversold extremes that often precede sharp reversals. When bears get this confident, theyre usually about to get squeezed.　　However, the taker buy/sell ratio at 0.86 shows aggressive selling is still dominating, with sell volume outpacing buys 4,574 to 3,934. This creates a dynamic where

Trump Backs CFTC Authority Over Prediction Market Platforms

Tech　　Trump Backs CFTC Authority Over Prediction Market Platforms　　Trump argued that prediction markets should stay under federal oversight through the CFTC instead of state regulation. The debate centers on whether prediction markets qualify as federally regulated derivatives products or illegal betting platforms. Trump also warned that the US could fall behind other countries if it restricts the industry too heavily.　　Trump Backs Federal Control of Prediction Markets　　US President Donald Trump publicly defended the authority of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission () over prediction markets due to the growing legal pressure against the industry in several US states. In a that was shared on his social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday, Trump argued that the CFTC should maintain “exclusive authority” over prediction markets and the industry should be allowed to continue operating and expanding in the United States.　　Trump criticized state officials and regulators that have taken action against prediction market platforms like Kalshi, , Crypto.com, and . Several states have either filed lawsuits or issued cease-and-desist orders against these companies, arguing that they are offering unlicensed gambling products under the guise of financial markets. Trump dismissed this and claimed that prediction markets are an important new financial industry that should stay under

Chinas top court officials have signaled fresh scrutiny of cryptocurrency-related disputes after authorities said they would study judicial rules for cases involving virtual currencies and cross-border finance.China‘s Supreme People’s Court said it will study judicial rules for crypto and cross-border finance-related disputes.Chinese regulators have already expanded crypto restrictions this year to cover offshore yuan stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets.While mainland China continues its crypto ban, Hong Kong has moved ahead with stablecoin licensing and virtual asset regulations.　　According to comments made during a Wednesday press conference in Beijing, Liu Guixiang, a member of the judicial committee at China‘s Supreme People’s Court, said Chinese courts would carry out deeper research into adjudication standards tied to “emerging cases” involving virtual currencies and overseas financial activity.　　Liu also said judicial authorities would accelerate work on legal interpretations related to civil compensation in insider trading and market manipulation cases, though he did not provide a timeline for the measures.　　Held under the framework of China‘s “15th Five-Year Plan,” the briefing formed part of the country’s long-term policy roadmap through 2030, which includes cybersecurity integration across digital governance and financial infrastructure.　　Even as mainland China continues enforcing one of the worlds strictest crypto crackdowns, local courts have previously treated

ATOM Price Prediction: $2.22 Breakout Within 72 Hours or Swift Drop to $1.90

Market Context: Why ATOM is Moving Now　　Cosmos has been grinding higher in a methodical climb thats caught the attention of both retail and institutional players. The token has pushed above multiple moving averages, trading at $2.14 with the 7-day SMA at $2.08 and the crucial 200-day SMA at $2.10. This positioning above long-term trend indicators suggests the recent accumulation phase is transitioning into something more significant.　　The interchain narrative that originally drove ATOM‘s value proposition continues to gain traction as cross-chain infrastructure becomes increasingly critical. However, the current price action is less about fundamental catalysts and more about technical positioning ahead of a potential breakout. Blockchain.news analysis shows that ATOM’s recent consolidation pattern mirrors previous accumulation phases that preceded major moves.　　Technical Setup Points to Imminent Resolution　　ATOM finds itself in a classic compression zone that typically precedes explosive moves. The RSI at 61.81 shows bullish momentum without overbought conditions, while the MACD histogram sits at exactly zero—a neutral stance that often marks the calm before major directional moves. These indicators converge with the Bollinger Band position at 0.90, placing ATOM directly against upper resistance at $2.17.　　The narrow trading range between $2.12 and $2.18 over the past 24 hours confirms this compression is

Hyperliquid Launches Prediction Markets for Offchain Events

Tech　　Hyperliquid Launches Prediction Markets for Offchain Events　　Decentralized exchange (DEX) Hyperliquid launched canonical prediction markets for offchain events, as the platform starts expanding beyond perpetual futures.　　Validators run automated newsfeed software that publishes the markets and votes on deployment and settlement, Hyperliquid said in a Monday Telegram post.　　The markets are built on Hyperliquid‘s HIP-4 and use Circle’s USDC (USDC) as the quote asset. Hyperliquid said the first markets will open based on the May Consumer Price Index (CPI) year-over-year change and the June federal funds rate decision.　　The launch puts prediction markets inside Hyperliquids existing trading stack, allowing users to trade event outcomes alongside spot and perpetual futures rather than moving collateral to a separate platform.　　The rollout adds weight to a thesis advanced by Delphi Digital that Hyperliquid is evolving from a perp DEX into a broader onchain financial venue.　　“Whats different now is that the stack is finally mature enough for true crypto superapps (aggregated giants) to exist without being limited to the wallet form factor,” Delphi said in a December research report.　　The HYPE tokens price soared by 20% when Hyperliquid first announced plans to launch prediction market functionalities, Cointelegraph reported in February.　　Is Hyperliquid cryptos next “super-app”？　　Hyperliquids expanding functionalities are making it the

XRP Trader Returns Hit 6-Year Low Amid Extreme Fear Signal

Tech　　XRP Trader Returns Hit 6-Year Low Amid Extreme Fear Signal　　XRP Hits 6-Year Low in Trader Returns as Extreme Fear Signals Potential Rebound　　XRPs average trader returns have fallen to their in six years, according to on-chain data from Santiment Intelligence, placing the asset in what analysts describe as a deep undervaluation zone.　　More notably, XRPs 30-day MVRV ratio, a key gauge of short-term profitability, has dropped to levels last seen in December 2020. In practical terms, the average XRP trader active over the past month is now down about 47%, reflecting a broad wave of recent capitulation. Per CoinCodex data, XRP is at $1.34.　　Source: CoinCodex　　Historically, such deeply negative MVRV readings have tended to cluster near major market bottoms. When short-term holders are heavily underwater, selling pressure often exhausts itself, leaving the market in a state where most weak hands have already exited.　　In past cycles, this setup has frequently preceded strong relief rallies once sentiment stabilizes.　　This latest downturn follows XRP‘s strong rally through late 2024 and 2025 that resulted in an , when optimism around Ripple’s regulatory progress, rising institutional interest, and ETF speculation drove aggressive upside momentum.　　Nevertheless, as price action cooled, late entrants were caught at elevated levels and forced into losses

THORChain nodes approved ADR028, moving the network closer to a staged restart after the exploit.The hacker bounty is now active, while protocol-owned liquidity is expected to cover remaining losses.Developers are preparing v3.19.0 testing as tss-lib enters a temporary closed security audit period.　　In its latest update, the protocol said the focus is on restoring the network safely, “without rushing any steps.”　　The update comes after THORChains official exploit report said the network lost about $10.7 million from one of five vaults. The report said a newly churned node operator entered the network two days before the exploit and used a GG20 Threshold Signature Scheme vulnerability to drain the affected vault. The remaining four vaults were not affected.　　THORChain said nodes have upgraded to v3.18.1, a patch that also restores Rujira Networks ability to manage credit accounts, including borrowing and repayments. The next step is cutting and testing v3.19.0, which will include more changes before any mainnet push.　　The protocol said the release is expected to move to stagenet by the end of the following day, but added that an “exact timeline is yet to
