Billionaire hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones says the US is now “fiscally constrained,” which may call for a specific investment strategy in the coming years.

In a new interview on Bloomberg Television, the Tudor Investment Corporation founder says that the US government is in a debt trap, and will need to run negative real rates – or set interest rates lower than the rate of inflation, in order to devalue its debt.

Jones says that the “playbook is clear” as far as what the government is going to need to do, giving an edge to investors looking to position themselves.

Besides stocks, he mentions Bitcoin (BTC) and gold as portfolio staples moving forward.

“We’re going to have negative real rates and that’s why you have to think about what is facing our policy makers in this debt trap as you construct your portfolio. So, what would an ideal portfolio be in something like that? Well, what has worked so far? What has worked so far has been some combination of stocks – which won’t do great, which would do terribly if they called us out on the bond market…

But it would be some combination of probably volatility-adjusted Bitcoin, gold, stocks. That’s probably your best portfolio to fight inflation.”

The investor also said he believes that President Trump will attempt to install a new Fed Chair who is “uber dovish” in order to get rates down and achieve the desired market environment.

At time of writing, both BTC and gold are just slightly below their all-time highs.

Paul Tudor Jones Warns US in a ‘Debt Trap,’ Says Bitcoin Part of ‘Ideal’ Portfolio Strategy To Fight Incoming Inflation

New data from the market intelligence firm Santiment reveals that Dogecoin (DOGE) rival Shiba Inu (SHIB) could skyrocket as whale activity around the meme asset increases.

In a new analysis, Santiment says that historically, deep-pocketed investors making moves worth over $100,000 have predated peaks in prices for digital assets.

“History has shown that seismic upticks in $100,000 whale transactions often come just before prices peak. One of the most telling examples occurred in December 2017, when Bitcoin hit nearly $20,000 for the first time. On December 13, 2017, the number of whale transactions soared to a then-record-breaking amount of 62,317 in a single day, signaling major profit-taking by large investors.”

While this could mean an ensuing crash is coming after the rise in price, Santiment says whale activity doesn’t always necessarily mean this is the case, as high-net-worth investors tend to also purchase during dips rather than sell.

“Sometimes they can be used to find price bottoms, as whales show signs of accumulation. One such moment came following the crash of early May 2021.

While most retail traders were in a flat-out panic after Bitcoin dropped ~45% between May 8 and May 18, 2021, Santiment data showed sudden spikes in whale activity. Instead of selling, whales were buying the dip.”

The crypto analytics firm goes on to say that SHIB currently appears to be in the midst of a whale-driven rally.

“The second-largest meme coin in cryptocurrency may be heavily overshadowed by Dogecoin and other various smaller speculative assets these days. But this latest spike of 527 whale transactions on June 5, 2025, was the largest in five months.

Since this time, the coin’s market value has grown by 10%. Based on what we know about sudden spikes in whale activity as prices are falling, this could be a good sign that it’s just the beginning of a further price rally.”

SHIB is trading for $0.000012 at time of writing, a 5.5% decrease on the day.

This Dogecoin Rival Could Go Higher Amid Increased Whale Activity, Says Analytics Platform Santiment

The crypto market is slightly bouncing back from early Friday’s jitters on escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.

After slumping to the $102,600 mark, bitcoin

rebounded to around $106,000 before fading lower in the U.S. afternoon hours with reports about a fresh wave of airstrikes targeting Iran. The top cryptocurrency was down 1.6% in the last 24 hours, changing hands at $105,200 and still less than 6% shy of its all-time high price.

Meanwhile, the CoinDesk 20 — an index of the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, excluding memecoins, stablecoins and exchange coins — has lost 4.4% in the same period of time. Tokens such as ether

, avalancheand toncoinwere the hardest hit, slumping between 6% and 8%.

Crypto stocks, however, aren’t doing too hot. Most equities are in the red, especially bitcoin miners MARA Holdings (MARA) and Riot Platforms (RIOT), down 5% and 4% respectively. A notable exception is stablecoin issuer Circle (CIRCL), which is still benefiting from the windfall of its recent IPO; the stock is up 13% today, with news of retail giants Amazon and Walmart reportedly exploring stablecoins adding to the momentum.

Traditional markets don’t seem overwhelmingly concerned by the war. While gold is up 1.3%, potentially gearing up for new all-time highs, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq are only down 0.4% each.

What's next for bitcoin?

"Nice bounce thus far and lack of follow-through lower," well-followed crypto trader Skew said in a Friday X post. Market participants will likely remain cautious through the weekend with BTC tightly correlated with traditional markets amid heightened geopolitical risks, Skew added.

On the longer timeframe, some analysts see risks of a deeper pullback.

10x Research founder Markus Thielen noted that BTC's drop below $106,000 translates to a failed breakout, and traders should wait for more favorable setups before rushing to buy the dip.

(10x Research)

He highlighted the $100,000-$101,000 zone as key support, warning that a break below could mark a return to the broader consolidation phase similar to last summer.

John Glover, chief investment officer at bitcoin lender Ledn, argued that bitcoin entered a corrective phase from its record highs that could see the largest digital asset drop to $88,000-$93,000.

Bitcoin's potential corrective phase in a larger uptrend, per John Glover (Ledn/TradingView)

He said the $90,000 level could offer a favorable entry for opportunistic investors before BTC resumes its uptrend.

"Once this pattern has played out, the next move higher to the $130,000 area is expected to begin," he said.

The top US-based crypto exchange platform by trading volume is announcing upcoming crypto-related operating accounts for start-ups and small businesses.

In a new company blog post, Coinbase says it’s launching Coinbase Business, a regulatory-compliant all-in-one financial platform for start-ups and small firms that would allow them to manage crypto assets, receive payments, and automate financial workflows.

According to Coinbase, traditional finance serves as a barrier to success for smaller businesses, with crypto assets being the solution.

“Startups struggling to hire and reliably pay global talent, small family-owned businesses taken through the wringer by credit card fees, interest rates and chargebacks, a new restaurant’s books wrecked by long settlement cycles – all factors that eat into the efficiency and earning potential of almost all businesses today.

Crypto and stablecoins solve this exact problem for all of the above with fast, global, and low-cost money movement.”

Coinbase Business will offer business owners a quick and easy way to settle payments using digital assets, trade and manage their crypto portfolios, earn passive income via stablecoin rewards, streamline accounting using third-party software, and onboard new users.

“We’re bringing [our] security, scale, and compliance to everyday businesses with Coinbase Business – a modern financial stack built with the speed and scale of crypto.

Coinbase Business is purpose-built for modern operations and designed to streamline financial workflows for small-to-medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and startups.”

Customers can currently apply for early access to the Coinbase Business alpha, a preliminary version of the platform.

Coinbase Announces Upcoming Crypto Operating Accounts for Start-Ups and Small Businesses

As I step onto the plane leaving Gardermoen Airport in Oslo, Norway, the weight and warmth of the past week settles into my chest.



The Oslo Freedom Forum is not a conference. It’s not a summit. It’s something harder to name and even harder to describe — a convergence of courage, truth and defiance that burns through the noise of the modern world and gives you no choice but to listen, feel and act.

For the second time, I leave this city more convinced than ever that something unstoppable is rising. That amid the censorship, surveillance and state repression spreading across the globe, there is a countervailing force rooted in humanity, accelerated by technology and led by those who’ve already paid the price for speaking out.



The Forum doesn’t trade in empty optimism. It delivers a different kind of hope, forged from lived experience and stitched together by people who have been in the dark and still choose to see the light. A hope borne from the stories of individuals who have lived through the worst an authoritarian regime can do and still choose to fight for the freedom of others. The experiences shared were hard. At times, devastating. But they weren’t offered for pity. They were calls to action.

Just days after she was abducted, blindfolded, tortured, and sexually assaulted in a Tanzanian prison cell, Agather Atuhaire stood in front of a crowd of strangers and told her story.

Her voice did not tremble.

The Ugandan journalist and lawyer had traveled to Tanzania in solidarity with fellow East African dissidents, only to be disappeared in a black van alongside Kenyan activist Boniface Mwangi.



And yet, against all odds, she came back. Not just to her home in Uganda, but also to the stage in Oslo, where she spoke calmly and clearly about what it means to tell the truth under a dictatorship.



Her presentation, “The Digital Free Speech Crackdown in Uganda,” laid bare the authoritarian playbook: social media blackouts, propaganda campaigns, surveillance of journalists and the slow financial asphyxiation of independent media. When the government doesn’t like a story, it simply blocks the platform or website. When a journalist digs too deep, they disappear for a while. Or forever. Atuhaire painted a picture many struggle to even imagine.

And yet, after everything, she didn’t just recount these struggles. She looked out at the crowd and thanked the open source builders and contributors who write code and create tools that make it possible for activists like her to speak, move money and organize under regimes that want them silenced, or worse.

(Ugandan journalist and lawyer, Agather Atuhaire, speaks during the Freedom Tech track at the 2025 Oslo Freedom Forum.)

From Iran, independent Bitcoin educator Ziya Sadr reminded us that financial privacy is not a luxury but a necessary lifeline for those facing the financial repression by oppressive rulers. Sadr’s detainment during the 2022 Women, Life, Freedom movement following the murder of Mahsa Amini by the Iranian regime is a testament to that. Without financial privacy, activists’ actions, connections and finances are exposed to a regime equipped with widespread financial controls and a sophisticated, restrictive internet firewall that rivals even China’s.

The result is one of the most repressive digital environments in the world. And if that wasn’t enough, the Iranian rial currency has lost more than 80% of its value in just a few years.

Against this backdrop, Iranians are using bitcoin as undebasable savings, and to buy digital services like VPNs in order to access the open internet. But even that act, just reaching the outside world, requires a level of privacy most of us take for granted.



In his presentation, “Securing Lifelines: The Bitcoin Privacy Imperative,” Sadr shared that many Iranians turn to Bitcoin Coinjoins, a privacy technique that breaks the link between Bitcoin transaction inputs. Coinjoins preserve user transaction privacy and, more importantly, shield Iranians from the surveillance and retaliation of a regime who punishes anyone trying to access information beyond its tightly controlled digital spaces. The use of Coinjoins is becoming more difficult as global legal pressure mounts against open source developers, and in the aftermath of the Samourai developer arrests, privacy protocols like Whirlpool are unworkable.

Today, Sadr is learning more about additional Bitcoin privacy tools, including Paykoin, a privacy method that allows two users to contribute an input to a Bitcoin transaction. Payjoin breaks common chain analysis heuristics and conceals the sender and receiver of a transaction as well as the payment amount. Then there is ecash, a form of digital cash backed by Bitcoin that enables very private, everyday payments with the custodial trade-off of trusting mints (entities that issue and redeem ecash tokens) to store user funds.



The continued development of these protocols is crucial for Iranians, who live under a government that not only tracks and surveils digital behavior, but also imposes automatic fines on women for violating hijab rules and manipulates currency exchange rates to profit off citizens’ savings. For millions in Iran, bitcoin offers a last line of defense against a collapsing currency, intrusive surveillance and total financial repression.

(Independent Iranian Bitcoin educator, Ziya Sadr, speaks during the Freedom Tech track at the Oslo Freedom Forum.)

Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo López took the stage at the 2025 Oslo Freedom Forum not as a politician, but as a witness to what happens when a state turns its institutions into further tendrils of its repression machine.

After Nicolás Maduro stole Venezuela’s 2024 elections, López watched thousands of his fellow people — activists, students, journalists, opposition members and lawyers — get arrested, disappeared or forced into exile. The regime blocked access to social media, revoked passports, criminalized dissent and used the financial system as a means of controlling the population.



Amid this digital repression and Venezuela’s 162% inflation rate, López sees bitcoin (decentralized money) and Nostr (decentralized social media) as lifelines. When dictators shut down the internet or freeze your bank account, alternatives that are open source, decentralized, uncensorable and accessible become more important than ever for the survival of democracy and freedom.

“Decentralized resistance is the convergence of people, Bitcoin, Nostr, and AI.



People, it’s about the center and the end of what we are doing.



Brave women and men who sacrifice their freedom, who take risks, who are willing to fight for other people.



If it’s not about people, technology wouldn’t be something worth fighting for.



Bitcoin is freedom money. It’s decentralized, nobody controls it, nobody can stop it, it can move around without borders.”

(Venezuelan Opposition Leader Leopoldo López during the Freedom Tech track at the 2025 Oslo Freedom Forum.)

For decades, Paraguay’s greatest natural resource, hydroelectric power, has flowed out of the country through international contracts, fueling development in neighboring countries like Brazil and Argentina while one in four Paraguayans remained trapped in poverty. Paraguay’s Itaipu Dam, one of the largest in the world, has long symbolized this paradox: a river of energy diverted away from the very people who need it most.

Björn Schmidtke and Delia Garcete of Penguin Group are flipping that script.

In a landmark move, they secured Paraguay’s first 100-megawatt power purchase agreement, marking the beginning of a bold experiment to reclaim that energy for the people of Paraguay. Instead of selling it off to foreign powers, they use it to mine Bitcoin — and the proceeds go to Paraguay’s youth.

(Itaipu dam, Paraguay)

Out of the heat of humming ASICs and the roar of the Itaipu turbines rises Penguin Academy, a free software development school that equips young Paraguayans with coding, development and technical skills. Over 10,000 students have applied, including 800 women; more than 3,000 have already graduated. And over 85% of the graduates from their Code Pro program now work in the tech industry.

What was once wasted or exported is now being transformed into freedom and a future. Through bitcoin, Paraguay’s stranded energy is finding its way home.

Rushan Abbas is a Uyghur activist who has spent years raising the alarm about the Chinese Communist Party’s campaign to erase her people. During the Freedom Tech track, she spoke not just as a human rights advocate but as a sister whose sibling, Dr. Gulshan Abbas, was abducted by the CCP in 2018 and hasn’t been heard from since. Her voice was calm, but her words were heavy.



Abbas described a region turned into a digital and physical prison. The Uyghur homeland, East Turkistan, has been intentionally transformed into one of the world’s most sophisticated police states, where mass surveillance, facial recognition systems, police checkpoints, asset seizure, arranged marriage, sterilization and forced labor are used not just to control the Uyghur population, but to suppress them out of existence.



As Rushan describes it: “Break their lineage, break their roots, break their connections, and break their origins.”

Rushan made clear that monetary control is central to the CCP’s strategy. Uyghurs have their assets and bank accounts frozen, their land seized and their homes stolen. They are stripped of any ability to save, transact or build generational wealth, and are forced into government-run labor schemes under the guise of “poverty alleviation.”



Rushan reminds us that what’s happening to the Uyghurs is not abstract. It’s a targeted, systematic erasure carried out with weaponized technology and financial repression. Her sister’s disappearance is one of millions of silenced lives, but she refuses to let it be forgotten. In Oslo, Rushan stood not just as a witness, but her words served as a warning: When a government can monitor every transaction, surveil every citizen and control every movement, it doesn’t just repress but entirely dismantles the foundations of a people’s identity, autonomy and future.

(Uyghur activist Rushan Abbas speaks during the Freedom Tech track at the 2025 Oslo Freedom Forum.)

For these reasons and more, you don’t leave the Oslo Freedom Forum feeling defeated. You leave reminded that truth is more powerful than propaganda, that code can protect life and that resistance isn’t just possible — it’s already happening.



And if you’re fortunate enough to live in a place where speaking freely or moving money isn’t a life-risking act, you’re reminded of the privilege that comes with that freedom and the responsibility you have to stand with those who are still fighting for it.



This year, I felt a noticeable pulse of momentum around freedom tech. As we saw above, human rights defenders and dissidents didn’t just talk about the repression they endured. They emphasized the optimism about the tools that help them peacefully fight back: Bitcoin, Nostr, privacy tools, open source AI models, uncensorable VPNs — tools that work in the shadows, beneath firewalls, around embargoes and beyond borders. Tools that build a parallel system, where the right to transact, communicate, organize and resist cannot be revoked at the press of a button.



These are the instruments keeping movements alive, getting money to dissidents and protecting voices at risk. And behind every tool is a quiet builder, a pseudonymous contributor or an open source developer who may never take the stage but is just as much a part of the story.



The Oslo Freedom Forum is not just a gathering of voices. It’s a frontline, a place where the future is crafted by those who refuse to give in. And what emerges from that convergence is a simple, undeniable truth: Authoritarianism adapts, but so do we. With Bitcoin, with open source tools, with decentralized networks, with unstoppable courage.



At 30,000 feet, well above the noise and borders they try to enforce, one thing is clear: No authoritarian regime, no matter how brutal or well funded, has ever succeeded in stamping out the human desire to be free. The Oslo Freedom Forum is proof of that. And if you’re paying attention, it’s also a glimpse into what comes next.



This isn’t the end. It’s just the beginning of the next chapter. One written not by the powerful, but by the free.



Onward.

The 30,000-Foot View of the Oslo Freedom Forum

A widely followed crypto analyst says that Bitcoin (BTC) may pull back after failing to hold a key support level.

In a new thread, crypto trader Justin Bennett tells his 116,000 followers on the social media platform X that BTC may revisit the lower bound of a trading range at the $100,000 level, after a possible weekend bounce.

“Possible scenario for BTC following Thursday’s $106,600 failure. Pull back/consolidate on Friday, weekend rally (because that’s what retail does) into $106,000-$107,000, and then revisit the $100,000 lows. Invalidation on a sustained break (high time frames) above $107,000…

Personally, I wouldn’t be a buyer here, not after losing $106,600. It’s shorts only for me, but only if BTC gives me the opportunity on a bounce.”

Bennett also says that BTC whales exiting long positions in favor of building short positions against retail is causing the flagship crypto asset to weaken.

“Whales were shorting into retail strength all day Thursday. It was a scam BTC pump from the start.”

Lastly, the analyst warns that the USDT dominance chart (USDT.D) may start flashing bearish for Bitcoin.

Many traders closely watch the USDT.D chart as it shows how much of the crypto market cap is comprised of the stablecoin USDT. A bullish USDT.D chart is generally considered bearish for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as it indicates traders are unloading their crypto holdings in favor of the stablecoin.

“Not ready to call it just yet, but the USDT.D weekly chart is starting to look primed for another push back to 5%. I’ll wait for Friday’s two-day close to get a more definitive answer on this idea, but it looks decent so far. (Tether dominance moves inversely to BTC and ETH).”

Bitcoin is trading for $105,658 at time of writing, down 1.6% in the last 24 hours.

Meanwhile, USDT.D is at 4.79% at time of writing.

Here Are the Possible Bearish Targets for Bitcoin After BTC Fails To Break Out Above Major Level, According to Crypto Analyst

US President Donald Trump has more insults for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

At a bill signing ceremony on Thursday, Trump claimed the government would save $600 billion a year in short-term debt payments if Powell lowered the federal funds rate by 2 percentage points.

In May, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announced that it planned to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 4.25-4.5%, arguing that it was the most suitable level to achieve both maximum employment and controlled inflation. The Fed has held interest rates steady since December, when it cut the rate by 0.25%.

Trump says he’s not planning on firing Powell, but he slammed the Fed chair for not adjusting course.

“We’re going to spend $600 billion a year – $600 billion – because of one numbskull that sits there [and says] ‘I don’t see enough reason to cut the rates now.’ And the problem he’s got, and I explained to him… cut your rates now, there’s no inflation. We got it down, we got prices down.”

Inflation rose by 2.4% in May, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That was slightly less than the 2.5% increase predicted by economists, CBS reports.

Powell met with Trump last month following a barrage of insults from the president. The Fed, however, noted in a statement following the meeting that Powell did not discuss interest rate expectations with the president.

“At the President’s invitation, Chair Powell met with the President today at the White House to discuss economic developments, including for growth, employment, and inflation.

Chair Powell did not discuss his expectations for monetary policy, except to stress that the path of policy will depend entirely on incoming economic information and what that means for the outlook.

Finally, Chair Powell said that he and his colleagues on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will set monetary policy, as required by law, to support maximum employment and stable prices and will make those decisions based solely on careful, objective, and non-political analysis.”

Trump has repeatedly criticized Powell for not slashing interest rates, saying earlier in May that communicating with the Fed chair was “like talking to a wall.”

“The Bank of England cut. China cut. Everybody’s cutting but him. I don’t know, we’ll see what happens. It’s a shame. I call him ‘Too Late.’ Too Late Powell, that’s his nickname. And it’s a shame, it’s ridiculous… he’s always too late. But in this case, it’s not going to matter that much because our country is so strong, we’re so powerful in terms of economic strength and what we’ve done.”

Trump Calls Fed Chair Jerome Powell a ‘Numbskull,’ Claims Lack of Rate Cuts Are Costing US $600,000,000,000 a Year

Bitcoin (BTC) and crypto prices are primed for upside in the second half of 2025 amid US economic growth potential, according to a top Coinbase analyst.

David Duong, the exchange’s global head of research, says in a new monthly outlook that the “specter of recession has diminished.”

“A few months ago, we wrote that crypto performance would find its low in 1H25 and make new all-time highs in 2H25. We still believe this will be the case, despite the recent bounce for bitcoin prices in late May, which is to say that directionally, we think there could be more upside over the next 3-6 months.

In our view, the peak of the macro disruption caused by the tariff saga is now behind us. Looking ahead, risk sentiment should broadly benefit from the US government’s pivot towards more market-friendly policies with a new legislative fiscal package likely to be completed by late summer.”

Duong warns, however, that the US government’s spending bill could spike the US Treasury yield curve in the 10-30-year area. The analyst notes that deficit concerns already triggered the US 30Y bond yields to reach 5.15% in May, the highest level in two decades.

“That could tighten financial conditions more than expected, raising borrowing costs for businesses and consumers and potentially undermining the growth needed to justify our market optimism. If long-term yields rise too quickly, we think that this could trigger volatility in equities and credit markets, particularly if investors begin to doubt the US’s ability to sustain higher deficits without adverse consequences.”

Duong argues that such a scenario could serve as a boon for the prospects of store-of-value assets like gold and Bitcoin over altcoins.

an instant $70 reward in $RESOLV A 1,500,000 $RESOLV reward pool is up for grabs for traders during the event period.

1,500,000 $RESOLV reward pool Users can also earn 150 $RESOLV per referral , up to five friends.

OKX, one of the leading global crypto exchanges, just launched a massive promotion campaign around the new token $RESOLV—with real, immediate rewards for new users and a significant trading bonus pool. Here’s everything you need to know to claim your share and make the most of the opportunity.

200 $RESOLV Airdrop – Here’s How to Get It

Starting from June 11 at 9:00 PM (Vietnam time), OKX has kicked off a limited-time crypto event that allows new users to instantly receive 200 $RESOLV, equivalent to ~70 USDT, upon completing just a few steps.

Eligibility Requirements

In order to participate in the $RESOLV airdrop new users need to do as follows:

Register on OKX via the referral link:

https://okx.com/join/91712370 KYC process to confirm your identity. Deposit any amount of crypto (BTC or ETH) that is equivalent to at least 500 USDT in your OKX wallet. Trade 500 USDT worth of RESOLV/USDT on the spot trading platform.

After these steps are finished, OKX will immediately reward your account by 200 $RESOLV — no need to wait. At the time of writing this is nearly equivalent to ~70 USDT value, that is hard to catch up with as one of the biggest airdrops ever!

This promotion will run until 7:00 AM, June 28 (Vietnam time), and is open exclusively to new users.

$1.5 Million $RESOLV Trading Bonus Pool

Beyond the instant rewards, OKX is also launching a trading campaign where users can earn rewards from a pool of 1,500,000 $RESOLV by simply participating in trading activities involving the RESOLV token.

How the Trading Bonus Works

User Ranking Mechanics Only legit trades of RESOLV/USDT will be accounted under this Campaign.

Participants will be scored based on the total trading volume, and a greater share of the prize pool will be assigned to the top scorers.

Bonus tokens will be issued after the campaign ends.

This campaign is not only an opportunity to make, but also a smart way for early adopters to increase their exposure to $RESOLV and benefit from liquidity incentives.

Refer and Earn: Invite Friends, Get Paid

In addition to trading rewards, OKX allows users to boost their earnings through referrals. Here’s how the referral program works:

You will receive 150 $RESOLV for each friend you refer that registers and undergoes KYC, deposits, and trades.

Users can refer up to 5 friends, so that means a total earning potential of 750 $RESOLV—worth 260 USDT right now at market price.

This setup makes it perfect for the community builders, the influencers, or just the crypto heads who are interested in getting the word out to their community.

Why Is $RESOLV Getting This Much Attention?

$RESOLV is one of the more recent tokens that has received the OKX blessing, and with substantial rewards on offer, it’s clear that they are making a big push to bring on board new users to trade their product. Campaigns like this tend to crop up when exchanges are looking to create initial liquidity and generate community excitement around a token launch.

This process is not dissimilar to previous rollouts of tokens such as ORDI, MEME, and SEI, other projects that saw early hype and, in some cases, long-term traction.

While OKX has yet to confirm if $RESOLV will be connected to a wider ecosystem or future utility plan, the aggressive marketing push suggests that it might play a bigger part in the platform’s upcoming developments, including those that will be united with their growing and loyal community.

Is This Safe?

OKX is a well-known large centralized exchange with global presence and significant daily trading volume. It is popular, secure, and well-established and offers risk mitigation and wallet security features.

But the users should stay conscious:

Always do KYC from official platform.

The crypto market is heating up, and during this year’s hype cycle, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) blew up, causing massive ripples in the market. It stands at the forefront of innovation as the first cryptocurrency launched on Bitcoin Layer 2, enabling a whole new level of speed and utility that investors have long been craving.

Investing in $HYPER now could be the wisest move before the liftoff because this potent crypto is recognized by many as a strong-performing digital asset. With over $1.1 million raised in less than a week, it is clear that it is commanding serious attention.

$HYPER – The Cryptos Worth Considering Before The Hype Cycle Peaks

The crypto market has its cycles, which is why experienced investors know how to strategize their moves according to the changes they see. Analysts have observed a familiar pattern that may begin with the innovation trigger, followed by an increase in hype around meme coins.

At a certain point, the hype often gives way to disappointment, only to be followed by Bitcoin’s new milestones and, eventually, the long-term stability of the entire crypto market. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is the leading token at this point because it combines the viral appeal of meme coins with real innovation that is bound to bring long-term gains to early investors.

Bitcoin Hyper attracts a lot of attention because it introduces the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) feature. This feature brings scalable and fast smart contracts to the BTC ecosystem, while Canonical Bridge enables safe transfers between Bitcoin Hyper and the base layer of Bitcoin.

The unique combination of these features removes Bitcoin’s traditional limitations, delivering speed and scalability in response to market demand. The presale is off to a great start, so investors are encouraged to secure their $HYPER tokens in time!

A Sneak Peek Into $HYPER’s Future

One of the many things making $HYPER the popular presale is the transparency about its plans. The roadmap is planned to evolve throughout five main phases. Each phase will introduce new features that will yield long-term benefits for the early supporters of Bitcoin Hyper.

The initial phase involved concrete steps toward establishing a strong foundation for the project’s long-term success. The official website was launched during this phase, and the community started gathering on Discord, Telegram, and X (formerly Twitter).

The second phase is entirely focused on the $HYPER presale, which is already a huge success. During this phase, investors can stake their $HYPER tokens and enjoy 632% APY. The presale will end in the third quarter of this year or even earlier if the investors continue purchasing $HYPER tokens at this pace.

The third phase will deploy the Bitcoin Hyper Layer 2 network, activate the Canonical Bridge, and integrate SVM (Solana Virtual Machine). The ecosystem will expand further in the fourth phase, and the $HYPER token will be listed on the exchanges.

In the first quarter of the following year (2026), $HYPER holders will have the opportunity to be more involved in the decision-making process through a DAO (decentralized autonomous organization). Considering the significant opportunities ahead, joining the $HYPER presale now can yield substantial gains, which is why many investors consider it a digital token to accumulate.

Meanwhile, 20% will be set aside for marketing to inform the crypto community about the advantages of this highly appealing project. Business development and community activities will receive 25% through the treasury, and the remaining tokens (30%) will be directed towards development.

How to Buy Snorter Crypto: Your Ultimate Guide to Catching this Meme Coin

The clock is ticking, and the crypto community is buzzing: SOLX is quickly being labeled as the crypto bullish outlook. With just 3 days left before the official launch, Solaxy’s momentum is impossible to ignore, especially as it steps in to fix what Solana can’t.

While Solana continues pulling in institutional capital, its well-known issues with congestion and failed transactions still linger. Solaxy steps in where Solana stalls, acting as the first dedicated Layer 2 built specifically to fix those flaws.

This isn’t just another whitepaper promise. Solaxy already has a working testnet, live products, and a clear roadmap. As demand climbs and whales continue to load up, the final countdown is on, and this might be your last real shot at getting in early on something big.

Is SOLX About to Become the Next Solana-Level Breakout?

Although Solana has been attracting significant institutional capital, with over $1 billion in new investments revealed through securities offerings and liquid staking strategies, its issues with congestion and transaction failure have remained.

As the first dedicated Layer 2 for Solana, Solaxy can help Solana gain what it needs to attract investor confidence by making it more efficient and scalable. As a result, Solana will be more modular, dependable, and prepared for the upcoming surge in adoption and innovation.

To lower fees and enhance transaction throughput, Solaxy utilizes roll-up bundling and off-chain enhanced processing, thereby reducing costs and improving transaction throughput. Instead of concealing Solana’s imperfections, Solaxy adds modular upgrades into a high-performance chain while retaining its cohesion and composability.

The project is perfect for high-frequency dApps, retaining Solana’s native structure and speed. It is considered the profitable option as it aims to deliver the performance Solana has promised, eliminate long-standing technical bottlenecks, and upgrade the network’s capabilities, trying to improve Solana.

This is the modular engine pushing the next stage of Solana’s development, with the ecosystem now active through the launch of several working products. But more on them later.

Whales Are Loading Up on SOLX: What Do They Know That You Don’t?

With the presale coming to an end, $SOLX is causing serious FOMO, attracting a large number of whales. One whale just bought $49,626 worth of SOLX.

As mentioned, the project has already released some of its products, further increasing demand for $SOLX and proving this is the option. That’s because it demonstrates credibility that the project offers more than just a vision; it provides proof.

So, users can test the Igniter launchpad, live testnet bridge, and Block Explorer, with the DEX coming soon. The decentralized exchange will serve as the trading hub for the tokens launched through Igniter.

Solaxy’s tokenomics structure shows that the 138,046,000,000 token supply is well balanced. Namely, 20% is allocated to the treasury, 30% to development, 15% to marketing, 10% to listings, and 25% to rewards.

The comprehensive roadmap for the future-ready cryptocurrencies comprises three phases, with the first dedicated to the presale process, the second focused on the TGE, bridge, and listings, and the last devoted to Solaxy deployment.

The demand for the token has additionally risen after the project announced its partnership with Hyperlane, providing a bridging experience between Ethereum and Solana. Price potential also points to a 402% rise by the end of this year, with the price reaching $0.00879.

This Presale Raised $48M, and It’s Not Even Live Yet: Only 3 Days Left

Solaxy’s presale launched in December 2024, and it sold more than $2M worth of $SOLX tokens in the first few days. It was already clear that the project had the potential to become the crypto for buyers, which it eventually did. So far, the presale has secured $48 million in funds, reaching its last three days, scheduled to launch on June 16.

The $SOLX price is extremely discounted during the presale, increasing every two days. Interested investors can now buy the token for only $0.001754. Presale participants can also stake $SOLX and earn rewards with an 85% APY, with the stakers getting these rewards for the next 3 years.

After the presale ends, the token will be listed on centralized and decentralized exchanges, expanding its reach.

Don’t Miss Out on the Last Three Days of the Solaxy, the Crypto for buyers of the Last 5 Years

In a market full of empty hype and half-finished projects, Solaxy is delivering, and the numbers speak for themselves. With $48 million raised before the token even hits exchanges, a working ecosystem already live, and partnerships like Hyperlane bringing real utility, $SOLX isn’t just another speculative play; it’s proving itself ahead of schedule.

The token price increases every two days, staking is now live with an 85% APY, and the presale window will close in just three days. Don’t ignore what the whales already seem to know. This is one of those rare moments in crypto where product, timing, and demand all lineup. You’re almost out of time, and this could genuinely be the market-favorite presale recently.

Only 3 Days Left: SOLX Presale Nears Its End as Interest Grows in One of 2025’s Crypto Launches

Key Takeaways:

$15B+ volume in beta phase now propels Defi App’s token $HOME to a Binance spot listing .

Binance spot listing Binance is distributing 200 million $HOME via retroactive HODLer Airdrops to BNB stakers.

200 million $HOME retroactive HODLer Airdrops The Defi App touts itself as crypto’s “Everything App”—gasless, bridgeless, and frictionless across chains.

Defi App, the ambitious project behind the $HOME token, is making waves after securing listings on Binance, Coinbase, KuCoin, and more just days after launch. The token’s dramatic rise is now being accelerated through Binance’s HODLer Airdrops, offering BNB holders a chance to receive a share of 200 million $HOME.

Let’s break down what’s happening—and why it matters.

What Is Defi App and Why Is $HOME Making Headlines?

The Defi App positions itself as a next-gen DeFi SuperApp, allowing users to swap, trade, and earn yield in a single click. It supports multi-chain operations without requiring bridges or gas tokens, making it extremely beginner-friendly.

More than just UX innovation, the platform saw over $15 billion in volume during its closed beta, along with a user base now surpassing 400,000 registered wallets. The $HOME token is at the center of this ecosystem, powering governance, staking, buybacks, and emissions—all wrapped in a flywheel model designed for long-term velocity.

Key Platform Highlights

All-in-one crypto SuperApp with 1-click functionality

Operates across BNB Chain, Base, and Solana

BNB Chain, Base, and Solana No bridges, no gas, no KYC required for core features

Supports self-custodial wallet usage

self-custodial Advanced reward structures for degens, normies, and institutional players

This massive adoption surge was one of the key drivers behind Binance’s decision to not only list $HOME but also include it in the coveted HODLer Airdrops program, which rewards long-term BNB holders.

How Binance’s HODLer Airdrops Work (and Who’s Eligible)

Under Binance’s HODLer Airdrops initiative, users who subscribed BNB to Simple Earn or On-Chain Yields from June 6 to June 9 were automatically included in the airdrop snapshot pool.

$HOME Airdrop Details:

Total Tokens Airdropped : 200,000,000 $HOME

Airdrop Share of Total Supply : 2%

Bonus Campaign Allocation : Additional 100M $HOME reserved for future marketing

Circulating Supply at Launch : 2.72B (27.2%)

Listing Date on Binance Spot : June 12, 2025

Trading Pairs : HOME/USDT, HOME/BNB, HOME/USDC, HOME/FDUSD, HOME/TRY

Blockchain Networks : BNB Chain: 0x4bfa…c714f Base Chain: 0x4bfa…c714f Solana Chain: J3umBWqh…WXj



Users will find the airdropped tokens in their Spot Wallets at least 1 hour before the listing time. This gives early adopters an edge for potential trading opportunities.

Note: HOME will be removed from Binance Alpha once spot trading goes live. Users must transfer balances to Spot accounts to continue trading.

Behind the $HOME Token Flywheel

At the core of the Defi App ecosystem is a dynamic flywheel economy built around $HOME. The token allows holders to participate in staking, governance, and protocol revenue share through buybacks and burns.

Key Features of $HOME Tokenomics:

Staking Rewards : Up to 3x XP and emissions

Governance Rights : Influence token emissions and listing prioritization

Buybacks and Burns : Protocol revenue used to reinforce token demand

Sticky Mechanics : Encourages long-term holding with rewards for commitment

This circular feedback loop—users stake, price increases, new users buy in—creates a self-reinforcing demand model. According to internal stats, 15% of the current $HOME supply is already staked for 6 to 12 months.

Who’s Backing Defi App? Follow the Money

The project is not just riding hype. It boasts a powerful lineup of early investors and strategic supporters. These include:

Mechanism Capital

Selini Capital

Bankless Ventures

Fomo Ventures

Echo

Influencers like Pentoshi and Gabriel Haines

Such endorsements help solidify $HOME’s position not just as a viral launch but as a serious contender in DeFi infrastructure.

Why the “Everything App” Concept Is Gaining Momentum

As the DeFi landscape becomes increasingly fragmented, the concept of a single, unified interface for all DeFi activities is gaining traction. The Defi App’s ability to operate without bridges, without signing transactions every time, and without needing to worry about gas is a usability leap over competitors.

Other chains are beginning to explore similar concepts, but few have delivered with the speed or polish seen in Defi App’s launch. That the launch process is entirely seamless across belt and pants, on 3 chains (Solana, Base and BNB), with deep integrations and high TVL makes the launch all the more impressive.

What’s Next for $HOME?

After the spot listing on Binance, attention is now on the second phase of the airdrop campaign coming up within 3 months. Some of the downstream projects will certainly drive more $HOME adoption, as next round of users is on-boarded on a direct basis for it.

Concurrently, $HOME staking pools will grow on partner platforms, like decentralized protocols embedding Defi App APIs. And with governance now full go, you token holders will help plot the course, impacting everything from emissions schedule to listing decisions.

As Binance users rush to check their wallets for surprise $HOME allocations, the broader crypto community is watching closely. The SuperApp model may just be what DeFi needed to cross the usability chasm—and $HOME is currently the token carrying that momentum.
