That’s less than what the biggest US crypto and brokerage platforms charge for standard retail trades. It’s one of the more concrete signs yet that traditional financial giants are moving deeper into digital asset territory.But Mallers, whose payments company Strike is built around Bitcoin, pushed back hard against the idea that this trend spells trouble for the asset.Asked on the What Bitcoin Did podcast whether institutional involvement threatens Bitcoin’s core principles, his answer was short: no. “If Wall Street getting into Bitcoin kills it, it was never going to be successful in the first place,” Mallers told host Danny Knowles in the episode published Thursday on YouTube.Bitcoin: Money For Everyone — Including Your EnemiesHis argument rests on what he sees as Bitcoin’s foundational promise. The asset, he said, was built on the idea of being money for all people — not just those who share the same politics, values, or background. He extended that to include rivals and adversaries. A network that claims to be open to everyone can’t logically draw a line at Wall Street, in his view.Large institutions buying in was always going to happen, Mallers said, because Bitcoin is competing for global capital.

Altcoin rotation or cycle? Here's why USDT dominance may hold the answer

The market is currently exhibiting a textbook rotation phase.

On the technical side, Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) has logged four straight days of downside pressure after its early May breakout to 61.2%. At the same time, the Altcoin Season Index has jumped by more than 10 points in less than 24 hours, reinforcing a classic BTC-to-altcoin rotation setup.

Historically, however, altcoin rallies rarely sustain momentum unless Ethereum [ETH], the largest altcoin, starts gaining strength against Bitcoin [BTC], allowing deeper capital to flow across the broader altcoin market.

As the chart below shows, the ETH/BTC ratio has rebounded around 0.7% after four consecutive weeks of decline. This could be an early sign that rotation might be expanding beyond Bitcoin.

Chainlink attracts security-focused capital after DeFi stress – Can LINK maintain momentum?Chainlink’s [$LINK] market structure has continued tightening after the token climbed to $10.48 on the charts – Its highest level since January. At the same time, social discussions around $LINK accelerated sharply, helping fuel renewed short-term momentum across the market.

Meanwhile, exchange supply fell as more holders shifted tokens into long-term custody and inactive wallets.

In fact, over the past five weeks alone, roughly 13.5 million $LINK left exchanges, removing more than 10.5% of previously available trading supply since early April.Source: Chainlink
This episode of tightening liquidity coincided with a hike in whale accumulation. Especially since according to recent insights by Chainlink, wallets holding between 100,000 and 10 million $LINK added another 32.93 million tokens – Pushing combined holdings towards 461 million $LINK.

However, shrinking exchange liquidity may amplify future volatility if rising demand collides with reduced immediately available supply

AKT bulls eyeing $1 target
On the charts, AKT broke out of a monthly consolidation in May following a flat moving average. The price of the altcoin rose above the 100 EMA and confirmed with a retest around the $0.60 zone.

After ranging between $0.60 and $0.65 for five days, the altcoin sprung out to a 2026 high of about $0.79. This suggested that AKT could head toward $1 as bulls’ momentum rose, as seen in the MACD bars.However, the bulls were facing a test as AKT showed signs of pausing between $0.75 and $0.80. If bulls keep buying the altcoin, the $1 target may be viable. Otherwise, AKT may correct, as assets tend to do after such rallies.

Final Summary
Akash Network rallies 17% after increased daily trading volume powered by its AI model.
AKT bulls were eyeing the $1 price mark, which they could achieve only if they maintained current buying and trading activities.

Ethereum Dominance in DeFi Falls to 54%, Is ETH Losing Control of Biggest Market?

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, has seen its dominance in the DeFi market fall to around 54%, down from 63.5% earlier this year, as competing blockchains continue capturing a larger share of the crypto ecosystem.

Now the big question is Ethereum losing its grip on DeFi dominance? While $ETH price has recovered to nearly $2,314.

Ethereum Dominance in DeFi Falls to 54%

According to DeFiLlama data, Ethereum’s share of total DeFi TVL dropped from 63.5% at the start of 2025 to roughly 54% this month, marking one of the network’s weakest dominance levels in years.

DeFiLlama currently values Ethereum’s total value locked at approximately $45.4 billion, far ahead of most competing blockchains.


However, other networks are rapidly absorbing market share by focusing on specialized use cases across the crypto ecosystem. Current DeFi TVL market share now stands at:

Solana: 6.66%

BNB: 6.60%

Bitcoin ecosystem: 6.35%

TRON: 6.17%

Base: 5.44%

Hyperliquid ecosystem: 1.81%

This shift suggests DeFi is evolving from a single Ethereum-centered ecosystem into a multi-chain market where each blockchain focuses on specific sectors like stablecoins, perpetual trading, Bitcoin collateral, or consumer applications.

Ethereum Whales Are Selling

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez also pointed to a major shift happening among Ethereum whales.

According to Martinez, wallets holding between 1,000 and 10,000 $ETH have significantly reduced their holdings since October 2025.

This whale cohort previously accumulated aggressively during 2025, growing holdings from approximately 12.95 million $ETH in April 2025 to 15.95 million $ETH by October 2025

However, whale behavior later reversed sharply. Their combined holdings have now dropped to roughly 12.52 million $ETH, representing a decline of approximately 21.5%.

This large supply reduction suggests Ether

#HTX Community April Creation Contest US banks reject CLARITY Act stablecoin deal days before Senate vote

The US banking lobby is mounting a last-minute push to stall the CLARITY Act just days before its scheduled Senate Banking Committee markup on May 14.

The American Bankers Association, the Bank Policy Institute, the Consumer Bankers Association, the Financial Services Forum, and the Independent Community Bankers of America issued a joint statement this week rejecting the compromise stablecoin yield language drafted by Senators Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks. The coalition said the proposed language falls short of its policy goals and leaves dangerous loopholes that could trigger deposit flight from traditional banks.

The banking groups argue that Section 404 of the CLARITY Act still permits crypto platforms to offer rewards tied to account balances and how long users hold assets, which they say amounts to offering deposit interest under a different name. “Research demonstrates that yield-earning stablecoins could reduce all consumer, small-business, and farm loans by one-fifth or more,” the coalition said in its joint statement, adding that it is “imperative that Congress get this right.”

Lummis and Tillis push back

The response from the bill’s sponsors was immediate. Senator Cynthia Lummis, who chairs the Senate Banking Subcommittee on Digital Assets, posted on X that the finalized bipartisan text “is the culmination of months of hard work to deliver a compromise on yield we can all live with.” Senator Tillis, who co-authored the deal, was sharper in his pushback, warning that certain factions within traditional finance may simply oppose any version of the CLARITY Act and are using the stablecoin yield debate as a mechanism to stall the legislation indefinitely.

Tillis’s closing line in his public defense left little room for ambiguity: “Some in the banking industry may not want either of these things to happen, and we respectfully agree to disagree.”
