PENDLE builds strength above broken channel: Is $2.35 the next target?
$PENDLE surged 17.71% to $1.47 as trading volume climbed 108.05% to $76.11M, reflecting a sharp rise in participation and renewed demand across markets.
This rise in activity aligned with the price increase, showing that buyers had entered with conviction rather than isolated spikes in liquidity.

As participation increased, the rally gained structural backing instead of relying on thin order books.

However, rapid demand expansion often introduces short-term instability, especially near key resistance zones.

Price approached a critical level where continuation or rejection would likely shape the next move.

Bitcoin Slips Below Key Holder Cost Basis Ahead Of $1.74B Options 
Bitcoin is trading below a key cost threshold that short-term holders paid to acquire it — a sign that many recent buyers are sitting on losses heading into one of the largest options expiry events of the month.

Bitcoin: Bears Hold The Edge Going Into Expiry

Glassnode data shows Bitcoin is currently priced under the Short-Term Holder Cost Basis of $78,900, and also below the True Market Mean of $78,000.

Support is seen further down, in the $65,000–$70,000 range. That backdrop sets a cautious tone as roughly 23,000 Bitcoin options contracts — worth $1.74 billion — are set to expire today on derivatives exchange Deribit.

The put-call ratio for those contracts sits at 1.10, meaning more traders are betting on price declines than on gains.

Bitcoin’s max pain price — the level where the greatest number of options expire worthless — is $76,000, slightly below where it was trading at press time around $77,200.

Deribit has flagged the settlement as one to watch closely, with data showing a 95% probability that Bitcoin options expire above that $76,000 mark.

Huobi Creator Contest: Post & Win 1,500U 💥

After yesterday’s official announcement of the integration with Bullish, Mike Higgins, CEO of Ripple Prime, added details that turn a standard partnership into a serious tool for hedge funds.

Higgins emphasized that Ripple Prime clients are no longer just “looking at” Bullish, but now have direct access to its $BTC options markets as the platform now allows funds to seamlessly switch between Bullish’s Bitcoin options markets and traditional markets.

Considering that Bullish ranks second globally by open interest in this segment, according to him, Ripple Prime effectively gives its clients the keys to one of the most liquid order books in the world.An important detail from Higgins is the confirmation that Ripple USD ($RLUSD) is now fully used for trading on the platform. This is not just a “showcase” asset, but one that can be actively traded and used to realize profit and loss from Bitcoin positions.

The most significant technical signal from Mike is that cross-margin support is coming soon. For institutions, this is critical, as they will be able to optimize collateral and use their capital more efficiently. In simple terms, they will be able to trade larger positions while locking up less capital.

Higgins’ post highlights that Ripple Prime is moving beyond being a service around the XRP Ledger ecosystem and is becoming a full one-stop shop for the broader digital asset market, especially derivatives. If an institutional player wants to trade Bitcoin options through regulated infrastructure, Higgins makes it clear that this is now done via Ripple Prime.

Broader institutional interest persists through positions in related stocks (e.g., Robinhood) and ongoing discussions around real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, which has seen substantial growth.

Bitcoin continues to consolidate near the $78,000 level, posting gains of approximately 1.4% over the past 24 hours amid improving risk sentiment across global markets. 

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has climbed into the $2.59 trillion, reflecting modest overall gains of roughly 1% as investors digest April’s strong performance and position for potential moves in May. 

Trading volumes remain healthy but not at peak frenzy levels, indicating a phase of consolidation following the monthly close.

As of 11:30 AM IST, May 2, 2026, Bitcoin traded around $78,200—recovering from minor dips and testing resistance near the psychologically important $78K–$80K zone. 

Ethereum held steady near $2,300, while other major assets like Solana ($83–$84) and XRP ($1.39) showed mixed but generally stable performance. The market appears supported by positive equity market momentum, declining oil prices linked to US-Iran diplomatic optimism, and renewed institutional interest in digital assets.

April proved to be a standout month for Bitcoin, delivering around 13% gains—its strongest monthly performance in a year. This rebound helped thaw some of the “crypto winter” chill that had set in late last year.

However, near-term headwinds persist, including profit-taking at higher levels, mixed ETF flows in prior sessions, and caution around macroeconomic signals from the Federal Reserve. Despite these factors, the broader crypto ecosystem demonstrates resilience, with total market capitalization benefiting from steady inflows into infrastructure and related equities.

Chair Tim Scott eyes May CLARITY Act markup: ‘We’re in the red zone
U.S. Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott is hopeful that the crypto market structure bill, the CLARITY Act, will pass before the August recess.
During an interview with FOX Business on Thursday, Scott said,
We’re in the red zone. I just want to have thirteen of thirteen Republicans on board. That makes it easier for us to have a bipartisan markup, in May, is my hope, and we’ll get this thing to the floor of the Senate.

In football, the red zone is an area close to the goal line. As such, Scott signaled that the elusive markup could be possible this month, counting on all 13 Republicans to help fast-track the process.

If the markup is successful, Scott added, the final Senate floor vote could happen in June or July
