Bitcoin trades above $77,000 as oil's 5% slide pushes Asian equities higherBitcoin was slightly higher on Monday as a sharp decline in oil prices helped lift Asian stock markets.

At 6:35 UTC, the leading cryptocurrency by market value traded near $77,200, up 0.4% from midnight UTC, according to CoinDesk data. At that level, bitcoin was trading just above its widely tracked 50-day simple moving average of around $76,940. Traders and chart analysts monitor this key level closely, with sustained breakouts above it typically viewed as bullish.Other major cryptocurrencies were also modestly higher.

XRP and Solana (SOL) rose 0.6% or more, while Ether (ETH) gained 0.4%. However, all three continued to trade below their respective 50-day moving averages, lagging Bitcoin on this metric.

Futures tied to West Texas Intermediate crude oil dropped more than 5% to around $91 per barrel, extending a steep slide from last Wednesday’s high above $104. Asian equities rallied, with India’s Nifty climbed over 1%, Japan’s Nikkei rose nearly 3% in early trade, and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 added 0.4%.

These moves follow weekend reports that a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint that accounted for over 20% of global oil flows before the Iran war began in late February, was in its final stages.

Last week, Iran’s IRGC claimed to have allowed passage of over 20 tankers through the strait, though that volume remains well below pre-war levels.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Washington and Iranian negotiators have "a pretty solid thing on the table" and a deal to end the war between the two countries could be reached Monday. He said that the U.S. is ready top exhaust every diplomatic option but would pursue other means if a good deal could not be reached.

Analysts still maintained a cautious outlook on bitcoin, citing more than $2 billion

#Kalshi has backed a new advocacy group, Americans for Fair Markets, as the prediction market industry faces rising pressure from casinos, sportsbooks, state regulators, and Congress.
Summar
Kalshi-backed Americans for Fair Markets will lobby for federal prediction market rules and consumer protections.
The launch comes as Congress now probes Kalshi and Polymarket over insider trading control systems.
State gambling cases keep pressure on platforms seeking CFTC-led oversight of event contracts nationwide.
The group launched with Taylor Budowich, a former deputy White House chief of staff, as strategic advisor.
Americans for Fair Markets plans to shape federal policy for prediction markets and federally regulated exchanges. Kalshi said the group will support paid and earned campaigns against what it called "false narratives about prediction markets» from sportsbook and casino interes

Claims are spreading online that PlayStation Network will integrate Ripple-linked XRP for payments as early as this quarter. Of course, these reports have attracted the attention of the token community, but based on the facts, the information does not match reality.

As of May 2024, neither Sony Group, nor Ripple, nor the XRPL Foundation has made any statements about a partnership. And yes, the Japanese giant is implementing Web3 payments, but volatile third-party assets are not part of its plans. The corporation is building its own financial vertical.XRP doesn't fit into Sony's existing token strategySpeculation around XRP emerged from a misreading of the conglomerate's blockchain activity. Since December last year, Nikkei reports have shown that Sony Bank is working on a project to launch its own regulated stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar.

This asset is being created through the BlockBloom division for internal settlements: payments for games in the PS Store, PSN subscriptions and Crunchyroll content. The company's main motive is pragmatic: reducing transaction costs and moving away from billion-dollar fees paid to Visa and Mastercard. So blockchain payments will appear on PlayStation, but within a controlled internal economy where there is no place for third-party tokens.

purchases since launch.
DefiLlama says 99% of perps and spot revenue goes to the Assistance Fund buyback mechanism
HYPE hit $64.23 on May 24 as crypto.news data showed strong weekly and monthly gains.
Hyperliquid's native token HYPE has extended its record rally as new analysis points to the protocol's built-in buyback system as a main driver behind the move, rather than ETF demand alone.
Forbes contributor Zennon Kapron argued that HYPE's latest run is tied closely to Hyperliquid's Assistance Fund, a protocol mechanism that uses trading fee revenue to buy HYPE in the open market. His report said Hyperliquid has used more than $1.16 billion in fee revenue for token purchases since launch.
The model differs from a normal company buyback. Hyperliquid does not run the process through a board vote or quarterly approval. The protocol routes revenue into the Assistance Fund, which then buys HYPE as part of its token model.

DefiLlama data supports that structure. Its Hyperliquid page states that 99% of fees from Hyperliquid Perps and the spot order book go to the Assistance Fund for buying HYPE, excluding some builder and unit protocol fees.
That creates a steady demand channel as long as trading remains active. When the exchange produces more fees, the buyback pool grows. When trading slows, the same support can shrink.
HYPE hits new highs
Crypto.news price data showed HYPE trading near $63.16, up 13.72% in 24 hours, with a 24-hour high of $64.21. The same page listed HYPE's all-time high at $64.23 on May 24, 2026.

SimpleSwap Integrates with Monad to Enable Asset Transfers Into the Ecosystem
SimpleSwap is integrating with Monad, enabling assets to be moved into the ecosystem directly, without reliance on third parties or complex bridge setups.

Importance

Assets are scattered across dozens of networks. With the launch of a new L1, access to the ecosystem is a primary consideration. SimpleSwap streamlines this process; enabling asset movement while maintaining full user control throughout.

Key Features

Self-custody throughout. Assets are sent from a user-owned address and received to a user-owned address, with access to exchange-level rates along the way.

No repeated verification. Account creation or sign-up is not required to complete a swap.

Ready on day one. Asset movement into the Monad ecosystem is supported without bridges or additional steps.

From the team

“Monad handles performance at the protocol level. Our job is to make sure getting into the network is just as simple,” said Stefan Lauer, Head of Infrastructure at SimpleSwap.

“The first prerequisite for a healthy ecosystem is global access. Over 30 fiat onramp and offramp providers are currently integrated with Monad, and SimpleSwap’s integration further reduces friction for users to get involved with the expanding range of applications on the Monad network,” said Keone Hon, Co-Founder and GM at Monad Foundation.
