Fascinated by Bitcoin since 2017, Evariste has continuously researched the subject. While his initial interest was in trading, he now actively seeks to understand all advances centered on cryptocurrencies. As an editor, he strives to consistently deliver high-quality work that reflects the state of the sector as a whole.
Crypto regulation is entering a crucial phase. The SEC, long seen as an inflexible barrier, is orchestrating a series of four roundtables between April and June. Trading, asset custody, tokenization, and DeFi: these key themes outline an unprecedented roadmap. Behind this initiative, a strategic shift is emerging, marked by the erosion of the Gensler doctrine. Analysis.
The world of crypto continues to blur the lines with traditional finance. This time, it's BlackRock making a media splash by integrating Solana into its tokenized monetary fund, BUIDL. This decision is not just a simple technical adjustment, but a strong signal: blockchain is no longer a marginal experiment. It is becoming the backbone of a financial revolution in progress.
Finally, the wall of distrust is crumbling. BoursoBank, the French giant of online banking, reaches a historic milestone by incorporating crypto ETPs into its offering. A notable turnaround for this subsidiary of Société Générale, which has long been distant towards digital assets. By partnering with CoinShares, the European leader in the sector, the platform breaks into the traditional world of finance. Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP... These names now resonate in the portfolios of ordinary investors. One more step towards the normalization of cryptos? Much more: a silent revolution.
For the first time in eight months, the Hash Ribbon, a key indicator of the health of Bitcoin miners, has issued a buy signal. A rare event, often a precursor to major reversals. While Bitcoin flirts with $87,492, this technical alert is accompanied by another signal: the break of a historical downward trend on the RSI. Coincidence? Not if you believe the experts.
ETPs, the heavily scrutinized investment vehicles, have delivered a resounding verdict: Ethereum is losing ground against XRP and Solana. According to CoinShares, net outflows from ETH-related products reached 86 million dollars in one week, while its rivals are nibbling away at market shares. Bitcoin, on the other hand, confirms its status as a safe haven with 724 million in inflows. Is this a breaking scenario or just a simple correction? A deep dive into the entrails of a boiling market.
The announcement was like a pin pulled grenade: Trump Media (DJT), the company behind Truth Social, is partnering with Crypto.com to launch a range of ETFs and exchange-traded products (ETPs) starting in 2025. In the wake of this news, DJT stock jumped by 9% in after-hours trading. Far from being just a media stunt, this partnership marks a key milestone in Donald Trump’s strategy to infiltrate the crypto ecosystem. Between blockchain technology and electoral ambitions, we analyze an audacious move.
What if your digital wallet became your bank? This is the bet that Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, seems to want to take with Worldcoin. According to sources close to the matter, Tools for Humanity, the company behind this project, is negotiating with Visa to create a payment wallet in stablecoin. An alliance between crypto boldness and traditional financial infrastructure. The goal: to transform the World Wallet into a universal "mini-bank account." But behind this promise lie challenges as complex as the irises scanned by Worldcoin.
The Japanese company Metaplanet, listed in Tokyo, announced the acquisition of an additional 150 bitcoins, bringing its portfolio to 3,350 BTC. A decision made just a few days after the appointment of the son of the former American president to its advisory board. Behind these figures lies a bold maneuver: to transform Metaplanet into a global giant of bitcoin reserves. But why this sudden appetite for the queen of crypto, and what role does Eric Trump play in this equation?
While BlackRock sees the recession as a springboard for bitcoin, the Federal Reserve cools the enthusiasm for crypto. Between bold predictions and economic warnings, the market navigates troubled waters.
Until April, crypto markets will feel the aftershocks of a deep-rooted economic storm. An explosive mix of geopolitical tensions and interest rate rigidity is stifling risk appetite. But behind this chaos lie opportunities. Decoding.
The crypto universe has never feared the absurd. But when blockchain gets entangled with biblical prophecies, even the most seasoned raise an eyebrow. On Polymarket, a decentralized predictive betting platform, a bold contract challenges the laws of the sacred: a 3% chance that Jesus Christ will return before the end of 2025. An unusual bet, certainly, but indicative of an era where decentralized finance embraces the most improbable mythologies.
As Bitcoin hovers around $85,000, a subtle tension stirs in the markets. Behind this apparent resistance lies a paradoxical movement: the "whales" are quietly preparing their offensive. Their strategy? Massive bets against it, despite a technical rebound that would make optimists dream. A risky game, indicative of unprecedented mistrust, but also of an invisible battle where every dollar counts.
Against all odds, BlackRock, the global asset management giant, is shaking up conventional wisdom about Bitcoin. While cryptocurrencies are often associated with volatility and risk, Robert Mitchnick, head of digital assets at BlackRock, debunks this narrative. In a context where Bitcoin has lost 20% of its value since its peak at the end of 2023, his recent statements on CNBC resonate like a bold advocacy. Why does a traditional institution defend such a disruptive vision? The answer lies in a subtle strategy and a deep understanding of market evolution.
The European Union is undergoing a discreet yet persistent revolution. A recent report from Oobit, a platform specialized in crypto payments, reveals that 70% of crypto transactions on its network are absorbed by retail, food, and beverages. This figure shatters the clichés about the marginal use of cryptocurrencies. But how can we explain this silent infiltration into the daily lives of Europeans? Between regulatory adoption and economic pragmatism, the landscape is reshaping.
2025 could mark a point of no return for crypto. As traditional markets navigate between uncertainties and capricious interest rates, financial institutions seem to have found their new compass: digital assets. According to a recent study by Coinbase and EY-Parthenon, 83% of institutional investors plan to increase their allocations to crypto starting next year. A shocking figure that conceals a more complex reality, but above all, a profound transformation of investment strategies. Far from clichés about volatility, crypto is becoming a pillar of institutional portfolios.
