Bitcoin is repeating a 2022 pattern

Bitcoin　　Bitcoin is repeating a 2022 pattern　　CryptoQuant‘s latest Apr. 30 read shows that perpetual futures are driving Bitcoin’s recovery, while spot demand is still shrinking. That is the same market structure seen during the 2022 bear market rallies, when leverage-driven rebounds gave way to fresh downside.　　Spot buying through exchanges, ETFs, or direct on-chain accumulation represents committed capital. At the same time, perpetual futures allow traders to take directional exposure with borrowed capital, often at multiples of their collateral, without holding the underlying asset.　　When both forms of demand expand together, a rally tends to be self-reinforcing. When futures lead and spot lags, leveraged traders finance the bounce and face forced exits if the price moves against them.　　The 2022 comparison　　Several bear-market rallies in 2022 shared the same regime, with perpetual futures demand recovering before spot demand did. The price bounced, and leveraged positions came off as spot buyers proved too thin to absorb the selling.　　The bounces looked constructive, but each one resolved into the next leg lower.　　CryptoQuant charts show Bitcoin‘s April 2026 demand split, perpetual futures rising while spot contracts, mirrors 2022’s failed bear-market rally structure.　　CryptoQuant‘s chart places Bitcoin’s current April 2026 move back into a regime where spot contracts are contracting while

Berkshire annual meeting with no Buffett: Can Abel rekindle enthusiasm?

Finance　　Berkshire annual meeting with no Buffett: Can Abel rekindle enthusiasm？　　For decades, s annual meeting has doubled as a kind of financial Woodstock, drawing tens of thousands to hear Warren Buffett dispense homespun wisdom, crack jokes and field hours of questions.　　This year will be different.　　For the first time, the 95-year-old Buffett won‘t be the central figure on stage, marking a new era for one of the investing world’s most closely watched rituals. The shift puts a spotlight on Greg Abel, who took over as CEO at the start of 2026, and raises a question hanging over Omaha: what does Berkshire look like without the man who defined it？　　Investors and analysts said the tone is likely to move away from Buffett‘s signature mix of investing philosophy and life advice toward a more business-focused discussion of operations, capital allocation and a more granular view into the conglomerate’s inner workings.　　“Clearly, nobody can replace Warren on the stage,” said Macrae Sykes, a portfolio manager at Gabelli Funds. “But I think the continuity with Greg … brings definitely confidence in the continuation of the operating component to conglomerate.”　　Abel, 63, and insurance chief Ajit Jain will lead the first question-and-answer session, followed by a second panel including

XRP Price Follows Bitcoin? Bill Morgan Explains XRP-BTC Correlation

Bitcoin　　XRP Price Follows Bitcoin？ Bill Morgan Explains XRP-BTC Correlation　　The post XRP Price Follows Bitcoin？ Bill Morgan Explains XRP-BTC Correlation appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　Pro-XRP lawyer Bill Morgan has often said that XRPs price is strongly linked to Bitcoin, acting as a “follower” to market leader movements. This view has put him into a controversy.　　Responding to critics, Morgan said, “For those who keep insulting me for saying XRP follows Bitcoin, I am referring to correlation.”　　He further explained what he actually meant.　　XRP Price Follows Bitcoin, Says Bill Morgan　　According to Bill Morgans recent comments, XRP price action remains strongly linked with Bitcoin price moves. However, he said this does not mean XRP copies every Bitcoin move exactly.　　“The correlation coefficient between bitcoin price movement and XRP price movement is quite high, although it varies. It is a directional correlation which does not mean, for example, that if bitcoin price rises or falls by a specific percentage, the corresponding XRP move will be identical as a percentage.”　　Morgan isnt speaking in a vacuum. The data support his view.　　Right now, the 90-day correlation between XRP and Bitcoin is 0.628. On a scale where 1.0 means both move the same, this is a strong connection.　　From 2020 to

QNT Bearish Analysis May 1

Tech　　QNT Bearish Analysis May 1　　QNT is experiencing a consolidation stuck around 69 dollars, while bearish signals on the daily chart increase the risk of testing critical support levels; BTCs sideways movement creates a cautious environment for altcoins.　　Market Outlook and Current Situation　　Quant (QNT) is trading at the 69.00 dollar level as of May 1, 2026, showing a slight 0.58% decline over the last 24 hours.

Terra Classic (LUNC) Rallies 60% This Week — Key Catalysts Behind the Surge

The primary catalyst fueling this rally is aggressive supply reduction. More than 444 billion LUNC tokens have been permanently removed from circulation, representing approximately 6.4% of the total supply. Additionally, nearly 932 billion tokens remain locked in staking mechanisms, significantly constraining the available trading supply.　　Just within the last three days, approximately 630 million LUNC tokens were destroyed through burning mechanisms. This accelerated burn rate has captured trader attention and renewed market interest.　　Binances Burn Event and Protocol Enhancements　　Market participants are closely monitoring Binances anticipated monthly burn scheduled for May 1.
