RAVE’s rally questioned: ‘95.3% supply is controlled by the team itself’
Momentum traders have flocked to RaveDAO’s [$RAVE] sharp rally, but allegations of supply control are now reshaping its interpretation.

On-chain data suggests over 95% of supply sits with a single entity, while 3.1% on Bitget and 0.34% on Gate remain likely insider-held.

This places effective control near 98%, which reframes the rally from broad demand to a tightly managed float. As price accelerates in this thin-liquidity setup, even small inflows can drive outsized gains

However, this same structure increases fragility, as dominant holders can influence direction abruptly. Upside momentum remains visible, yet concentrated supply management drives the setup more than organic demand.

Momentum boom or controlled float illusion?

$RAVE has surged 10,000% in 30 days, yet a tightly controlled supply structure drives this move and explains its intensity.

Total supply stands near 978.8 million tokens, while only about 248 million circulate across roughly 11,669 addresses, which already limits liquidity.

Even so, that figure overstates the true float, because a single entity controls around 95% of the supply, while another 3–4% sits on exchanges in linked wallets.


This setup compresses tradable supply to very low levels, which allows price to expand rapidly on relatively small inflows.

As buyers chase momentum, market depth stays thin, so any shift in distribution can quickly reverse gains and increase downside risk.

Regulatory lag meets real-time market reaction

As on-chain findings surface, traders react quickly, yet formal enforcement remains absent, which creates a clear gap between information and action.

ZachXBT’s disclosure, alongside his $10,000 whistleblower bounty, signals rising urgency as he seeks further evidence. This response highlights growing concern while the price continues to trade without structural interruption.

The lag matters because

BlackRock clients have added nearly $284 million worth of Bitcoin exposure in a single day. The inflow came through BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, showing strong institutional demand.

This move did not happen in isolation. Total Bitcoin ETF inflows reached about $663 million on the same day. That marks the highest daily inflow in nearly three months. As a result, the market is once again focusing on institutional activity.

Institutional Demand Picks Up

BlackRock’s ETF led the inflows with nearly $284 million. This makes it the top contributor for the day. At the same time, other major players also joined in. Fidelity and ARK added strong inflows as well. Together, these firms pushed total ETF demand much higher.

This steady buying shows that institutions are still accumulating Bitcoin. Moreover, this is not a one-day trend. ETF inflows have remained positive for several days in a row. This consistency adds confidence to the market.

ETF Flows Signal Accumulation

ETF inflows often reflect long-term positioning. Unlike retail trading, institutional flows tend to move slowly and steadily. Because of this, many traders see them as a bullish signal. In this case, BlackRock’s activity stands out. Its Bitcoin ETF already holds tens of billions in total inflows. This latest addition strengthens its position even further. At the same time, total ETF assets have crossed $100 billion. This shows how large the market has become. As more funds enter, Bitcoin gains stronger support.

Despite strong inflows, Bitcoin still faces key resistance levels. The asse

Bitcoin is attempting to clear the $75,000–$77,000 resistance zone after two rejections in March. Options market data offer a detailed look at positioning, volatility expectations, and underlying sentiment, according to on-chain analytics provider Glassnode.Implied volatility has been easing rather than expanding across all maturities. Both short- and longer-dated contracts are being repriced lower, as the term structure stays flat. Moreover, one-month implied volatility is at 41.5%, just below the three-month level.Demand for protection is also softening. Put premiums have lost ground against calls, pointing to reduced hedging interest and a gradual repositioning toward a more constructive stance. The shift is most visible at the front end of the curve, where one-week skew has fallen roughly six points and one-month skew about three points over the past week.With options now appearing fairly priced, participants are undecided about whether to capitalize on the current volatility or prepare for the next leg.Yet flows over the past seven days have turned notably bullish. Some 32% of taker activity has come from outright call buying, reflecting active upside positioning rather than simply the unwinding of protective hedges. That buying is helping to underpin the price advance.The $75,000 level itself has become a significant gamma trigger. Bullish flows have created roughly $5 billion in negative gamma exposure between $74,000 and $78,000. A clean break higher through that band could therefore accelerate mechanically as market makers adjust their hedges.That said, downside protection at the $70,000 strike is still in place, with net premium still tilted toward puts. However, the imbalance is not widening, suggesting demand for insurance is steady rather than accelerating.As it stands, the options market is sending mixed signals. Skew is compressin

ARB Price Holds Near $0.129 While Traders Watch BTC Dominance Closely
Arbitrum traded in a narrow band on Friday as traders weighed a stronger altcoin backdrop against fresh warnings around token supply and Bitcoin dominance. On X, analyst Michaël van de Poppe said there had been “great momentum on altcoins over the past week” and added that with the VIX still low, Bitcoin showing momentum, and indices printing new highs, he “wouldn’t assume that this stops.”

For $ARB specifically, van de Poppe said that if a correction comes, and he added that he doubted it, the market would likely see a buy-the-dip formation and then continue toward $0.16. His chart showed a recovery structure with a green support box under price and a highlighted resistance zone above, implying he still sees room for continuation if the broader altcoin environment stays constructive.

Analyst Keeps Bullish View on $ARB

Van de Poppe’s setup is based on a market that has already started to rotate back into altcoins. His chart suggests $ARB is trying to build a higher base after a prolonged downtrend, with the recent rebound opening room for a push into the next resistance band.

Source: X

That view frames the current pause as consolidation, not rejection. In his words, the market may simply need a brief correction before continuing higher. The target he highlighted, $0.16, sits well above current trading levels and would require $ARB to sustain momentum from here.

However, that bullish view is not the only one in the market. Other traders are focusing less on chart structure and more on supply pressure and macro rotation inside crypto.

Vesting Activity and Bitcoin Dominance Temper the Upside Case

On X, Nazoku said Arbitrum’s vesting wallet 0xF89 has been vesting $ARB since May 2025. He said the wallet received 190 million $ARB, sent 142.5 million tokens worth about $83.2 milli

Renowned Analyst Benjamin Cowen Issued a Warning Despite Bitcoin's Rise

In his latest video, Benjamin Cowen, a leading analyst in the cryptocurrency market, evaluated Bitcoin's current price movements using historical data and "seasonality."

Analyzing Bitcoin's return to the $77,000 level, Cowen warned investors about potential weakness in the coming weeks.

Cowen noted that Bitcoin's current trajectory bears striking similarities to the "US midterm election years" cycles of 2018 and 2022. According to the analyst, Bitcoin hit a low of $60,000 in February, followed by a higher low in late March and early April.

However, Cowen argued that this was not an absolute bullish signal, but rather that "time-based capitulation" within a bear market was more significant than price-based decline.

One of the most striking points in the analysis was the risks projected for late April and early May. Cowen predicts that Bitcoin could reach a local peak at the end of April, similar to 2018, and then decline again at the beginning of May after sweeping that high.

PayPal’s stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), has reached a market capitalization of $4.11 billion, marking one of the fastest growth phases in the stablecoin space. The token has expanded rapidly since mid-2025, rising from around $500 million to over $4 billion. 

In contrast, Ripple’s RLUSD, which once touched nearly $1.6 billion, has recently pulled back to around $1.42 billion.

PYUSD Growth Driven by Real Usage, Not Hype
PYUSD’s rise is not just about market cycles, it is driven by actual usage.

PayPal has expanded the stablecoin across 13 blockchain networks in 2025, including Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and Stellar. This multi-chain approach allows users to move funds easily across networks, making PYUSD more accessible for both payments and DeFi.

A key push came through a LayerZero integration, which allowed PYUSD to move freely across nine additional chains. 

On Solana alone, PYUSD became the second-largest stablecoin on the Kamino lending platform, with over $500 million in deposits. This shows strong demand beyond simple trading.

Even recently, Coinpedia news reported that YouTube announced that eligible U.S. creators can get paid directly in PayPal’s PYUSD stablecoin.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs attract nearly $1B in weekly inflows as risk sentiment improves

Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded nearly $1 billion in net inflows over the past week, marking their strongest performance in more than three months as market sentiment shifts toward risk assets.

Data from SoSoValue shows that spot Bitcoin ($BTC) ETFs attracted $996 muillion in total net inflows last week, the highest weekly intake since early January, when inflows reached about $1.4 billion.

Friday saw $663.9 million in inflows, the strongest single-day performance of the week. Earlier gains included $411.5 million on Tuesday and $186 million on Wednesday, followed by a more modest $26 million on Thursday. The period began with a $291 million outflow on Monday.

Total net assets across spot Bitcoin ETFs climbed above $101 billion by Friday, alongside a sharp increase in trading activity, with daily volumes nearing $4.8 billion.

RWA Foundation Sees Trillions in Assets Moving Onchain as Tokenization 
The conversation around real-world assets, or RWAs, got another boost today after the RWA Foundation argued that tokenization is moving from theory to infrastructure. In a post on X, the group said trillions of dollars in value from stocks, real estate, private credit, bonds, collectibles and commodities are being rebuilt on faster and more efficient rails, with the market still “barely getting started.”

The message was simple but bold: crypto is no longer just adding RWAs on the margins, it is starting to absorb the plumbing of traditional finance itself. At the heart of the post was a familiar promise that has become harder to dismiss. Tokenization, RWA Foundation said, is replacing limited access with global access, T+2 settlement with near-instant settlement, opaque structures with onchain transparency, and illiquid ma
