Bitcoin Price Reclaims $80K as ETF Demand Offsets Geopolitical Risks

Edwards said similar demand-to-supply readings have preceded average one-month gains of 24%. From current levels, that would place the Bitcoin (BTC) price near $96,000. Still, the setup depends on continued Bitcoin ETF demand and stronger confirmation in the spot market.　　Bitcoin Tops $80K as Shorts Lose Ground Fast　　Bitcoin price soaring past the $80K mark also triggered a sharp reset across leveraged positions. More than $108 million in short positions closed within one hour as BTC held above $80,000.　　CoinGlass data showed short liquidations topped $162 million over 24 hours. Analysts said the break helped confirm buyer strength after the earlier pullback.　　According to Michaël van de Poppe, $79,000 is the first key level that bulls need to reclaim. The analyst suggests the $86,000 to $88,000 as the next resistance band. A stronger push could open the $92,000 to $94,000 zone for Bitcoin (BTC) price.　　Analyst Ted Pillows also highlighted the CME futures gap near $84,000. He said Bitcoin first rejected near $79,000 before reclaiming the level. That recovery raised the chance of a move toward the unfilled gap.　　Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis | Source: Ted Pillows, X　　BTC Price Faces Iran Risk and Liquidity Warnings　　The BTC price rally unfolded while traders tracked fresh Middle East headlines.

XLM Price Prediction: Stellar Eyes $0.20 Breakout as Technical Setup Signals Potential 25% Rally

Market Context: XLM at Critical Juncture　　Stellar finds itself at a technical crossroads in May 2026, with XLM trading around $0.16 after weeks of sideways consolidation. The cryptocurrency has been grinding through a narrow range, neither confirming bullish momentum nor breaking down significantly. This compressed trading pattern often precedes major directional moves as market participants position for the next leg.　　The broader cryptocurrency market‘s mixed signals have left XLM in a holding pattern, but this consolidation phase may be setting up conditions for a breakout. Stellar’s focus on cross-border payments and its established partnerships continue to provide fundamental support, even as short-term price action remains muted.　　Technical Picture Emerges　　The current technical setup shows XLM trading below key moving average levels, creating resistance overhead while support holds at lower levels. Momentum indicators reflect the sideways action, sitting in neutral territory without clear directional bias. This equilibrium suggests the market is waiting for a catalyst to determine the next move.　　Volume patterns during this consolidation period indicate measured participation rather than panic selling or aggressive buying. The compressed volatility environment typically resolves with expansion in either direction, making the next few trading sessions critical for establishing XLMs near-term trajectory.　　Price Targets and Scenarios　　The immediate resistance zone sits

Ripple Just Made It Harder for North Korea to Hide Inside Crypto Firms

Ripple is now contributing exclusive threat intelligence on DPRK (Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea) cyber actors to Crypto ISAC, a nonprofit organization that helps crypto companies share security information and defend against cyber threats targeting digital assets.　　The intelligence covers domains, wallets, and indicators of compromise from active DPRK hack campaigns. It also includes enriched profiles of suspected North Korean IT workers trying to embed themselves inside crypto firms.　　Drift Hack Triggered Industry Reckoning　　The Drift hack served as a wake-up call for the sector. Attackers spent months building trust with Drift contributors. They later deployed malicious software that compromised devices and bypassed traditional indicators of compromise.　　The intruders manipulated individuals to seize control of multisig wallets and steal funds.　　The same pattern has appeared at crypto and traditional financial firms. North Korean threat actors are operating from inside organizations rather than relying on smart contract exploits.　　Crypto ISAC characterized the campaign as social engineering at a new level. The piece raised the central question of how to detect someone who appears to be a trusted partner.　　The strongest security posture in crypto is a shared one.　　A threat actor who fails a background check at one company will apply to three more that same week.

Cathie Wood says BlackRock’s Bitcoin pivot signals broader institutional entry into crypto

ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood said BlackRock CEO Larry Finks shift from a long-time Bitcoin skeptic to an advocate of tokenization is helping clear the way for more institutional investors to enter the digital asset space. 　　Speaking on The Rollup podcast, Wood described Finks evolving stance as “entry permission” for pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, and large asset managers that typically wait for signals from major players in traditional finance before moving into new asset classes.　　Fink leads BlackRock, the world‘s largest asset manager with more than $14 trillion in assets under management.

Tether Gold (XAUT) Surpasses $3.3B Amid Rising Bullion Demand

Tech　　Tether Gold (XAUT) Surpasses $3.3B Amid Rising Bullion Demand　　Tethers tokenized gold product, Tether Gold (XAUt), saw reserves expand sharply in the first quarter as investor demand for bullion increased amid macroeconomic uncertainty ahead of the Iran war.　　In its latest report, Tether said XAUt surpassed $3.3 billion in market capitalization during the first quarter, representing a 36% increase over the period.　　The company disclosed that 707,741 XAUT tokens were in circulation at the end of the quarter, with each token backed by one troy ounce of physical gold held in reserve.　　Tether attributed the growth to a broader “flight to hard assets” as investors sought refuge from geopolitical tensions and shifting monetary conditions.　　The increase comes amid a volatile quarter for gold. Prices climbed early in the year as investors moved into safe-haven assets, driven by geopolitical tensions and expectations that the Federal Reserve would begin cutting interest rates.　　The precious metal later pulled back as immediate rate-cut expectations faded and the US dollar strengthened, reducing bullion demand. Some investors also locked in gains after the earlier rally, where prices briefly peaked above $5,500 a troy ounce. Gold was trading at around $4,500 per troy ounce at the time of reporting.　　Year to date, XAUTs US

Silver Price Forecast: XAG/USD slumps below $73.00 under 100-day EMA as downside pressure persists

Technical Analysis:　　In the daily chart, XAG/USD keeps a bearish near-term bias as spot holds below the 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Bollinger Bands 20-day simple moving average (SMA). The Relative Strength Index (14) around 44 shows subdued bearish momentum rather than capitulation, suggesting downside pressure persists but without an oversold signal that would hint at an imminent, strong rebound.　　On the topside, initial resistance is located at the 100-day EMA at $74.45, followed by the Bollinger midline at roughly $76.00, while the upper Bollinger Band near $80.85 marks a more distant cap in the event of a sharper short-covering bounce. On the downside, the May 4 low of $72.20 offers the first notable support. A decisive break below this level would expose the lower Bollinger Band at about $71.15.

Former Ripple CTO Says He Had 26 Million XRP, Recalls Co-Founder Selling Bitcoin Not XRP

The post Former Ripple CTO Says He Had 26 Million XRP, Recalls Co-Founder Selling Bitcoin Not XRP appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　David Schwartz, aka JoelKatz and formerly Ripples Chief Technology Officer, disclosed in a social media exchange this week that he once held 26 million XRP, significantly more than what he currently holds.　　Responding to a question on X about the size of his personal XRP position, Schwartz offered an unexpected point of reference. “My idea of not a lot is still more than a million,” he wrote. “I once had 26 million XRP.”　　The comment came in the context of a broader exchange about risk tolerance and crypto exposure among Ripples founding figures.　　David Schwartz reveals he once held 26M XRP and touches on Arthur Brittos historical preference for holding XRP over BTC. pic.twitter.com/ZvmaF6c0IK　　— ????????????????XRP (@BankXRP) May 4, 2026　　When asked whether Ripple co-founder Arthur Britto shares a similar approach to risk and asset exposure, Schwartz said the two had never directly discussed the topic. He added that his vague recollection from years ago was that Britto had been selling Bitcoin to cover personal expenses while holding onto most or all of his XRP.　　“I vaguely remember him saying that he‘s been selling

Flipping $80K To Support Requires A Rally Through Holders’ Cost-basis

Tech　　Flipping $80K To Support Requires A Rally Through Holders Cost-basis　　Bitcoin (BTC) reached a new three-month high of $80,500 on Monday, testing the level for the first time since Jan. 31. The rally above $80,000 puts the price just below short-term holders cost basis of $81,486, the next dynamic resistance level. For the rally to continue, a daily close above this level is key to securing $80,000 as support.　　A rally to $81,500 may lock in the trend　　Bitcoin‘s rally to $80,000 places the price directly under the short-term holder’s realized price of $81,486. This metric reflects the average cost of coins moved over the last 155 days and indicates where recent buyers have flipped from loss to profit.　　A daily close above $81,500 would return these holders to profit and reduce sell-side pressure. According to crypto analyst Crazyyblockk, the short-term holder losses narrowed to about -2.17%, showing that the overhead supply band is thinning. The long-term holders (LTHs) hold near +27% profit and are not distributing aggressively.　　The spent-output profit ratio (SOPR), which tracks whether coins are spent at a profit or a loss, has climbed to 1.097 from 0.99. This indicates the coins are being spent in profit again, led by long-term holders.　　The
