For well over a century, oil has been viewed as a strategic commodity, playing an essential role in transportation and manufacturing, among other critical industries. For Ethereum’s proponents, drawing comparisons has been useful—but even then, the analogy is far from perfect. When Vivek Raman introduced Etheralize in January, the former banker and business development firm’s co-founder formalized efforts to onboard Wall Street. Part of that initiative, he recently told Decrypt, has involved “evangelization and education and marketing.” “I always call it digital oil,” Raman said. “We think that as the crypto ecosystem evolves, people not only will want to—but will…

Bitcoin’s strong rally from April’s $75,000 low might be at the risk of a halt as the $92,000–$98,000 resistance band stands strong. Popular market analyst Capo of Crypto warned in a recent post that the current levels may represent a local top and possible “LTF distribution.” “Above $92k–93k → Bullish, but strong resistance at $96k–98k. Below $92k → Bearish,” Capo noted, highlighting the high-risk, high-reward zone Bitcoin has entered. His chart further projects a potential “real capitulation event” if BTC is rejected from this resistance and fails to hold key support near $92,000.

Ethereum (ETH) has come out as the top blockchain network for net capital inflows over the past month, pulling in a hefty $475 million in new funds. Fresh data from Artemis, highlighted by on-chain watcher @rovercrc, shows the platform easily outpaced all other chains, cementing its spot as a go-to backing layer for digital assets. Arbitrum wasn’t far behind, attracting over $400 million in net inflows, making it the second most popular pick for capital during the same stretch. Other Layer 2 and sidechain setups like Polygon PoS, Base, and Unichain also saw some smaller gains, pointing to lively user…

A wallet that usually does not receive many transactions got 612.3 billion SHIB in a single transfer, which is about $9.83 million at the time of the move. The tokens were sent to address “0x72,” which now has a big SHIB balance, along with other tokens like PEPE and DAI. The total wallet value is about $21.5 million. If you look at the flow of funds, you will see that Shiba Inu (SHIB) came from “0xAD74.” That wallet had gotten the tokens earlier from “0xBf9,” which originally got them from a Binance hot wallet. So the tokens moved off the…

In June 2025, the BNB Chain will undergo one of its most critical upgrades yet—the Maxwell hardfork. Coming after the Pascal and Lorentz hardforks, Maxwell isn’t just another update. It’s a strategic upgrade designed to significantly enhance the speed, stability, and edge of BNB Smart Chain in today’s fast-moving blockchain space. What Is the Maxwell Hardfork? Maxwell is a protocol upgrade that reduces BNB Chain’s block times from 1.5 seconds to just 0.75 seconds. This is a major enhancement from April’s Lorentz hardfork, which had already cut the interval in half from 3 seconds to 1.5. By shortening block intervals,…

Sen. Lummis stated that Donald Trump supports her BITCOIN Act, which would mandate that the government accumulate 1 million Bitcoins. Bitcoin strategic reserve could soon become a reality. On a Friday, May 2 speech to the U.S. Senate, Senator Cynthia Lummis stated that U.S. President Donald Trump supports her BITCOIN Act. The BITCOIN Act is the only solution to our nation’s $36T debt.

Ethereum price rally has stalled in the past 15 days, but Polymarket traders and technicals point to more upside in the coming weeks. Ethereum (ETH) traded at $2,550 on Saturday, a few points below this month’s high of $2,735. It has jumped 85% from its lowest level this year. Most Polymarket traders believe that ETH price will jump to $4,000 in 2025. A poll shows that the odds of this happening have risen to 40% from last month’s low of 16%. These odds are at their highest level since March 1. Moving to $4,000 would imply a 60% surge from…

TOMI, the token of the decentralized alternative internet platform tomi Super App, has skyrocketed 150% in the past 24 hours to outpace all major coins. The TOMI token’s (TOMI) massive pump, which has the crypto trading 150% higher, also comes with a 446% spike in intraday volume to $26 million.
