#BTC Price Guess: 18M HTX Awaits You US strikes two empty Iranian oil tankers as Bitcoin sheds $58 billion in market cap
US Central Command confirmed on May 8 that American forces disabled two empty Iranian-flagged oil tankers, the M/T Sea Star III and the M/T Sevda, as they attempted to breach a US naval blockade in the Gulf of Oman. The strike marks the most direct military confrontation between the US and Iran since the Strait of Hormuz crisis began in late February, and crypto markets responded exactly the way you’d expect when warships start shooting at tankers.

Bitcoin shed roughly $2,800 from its daily high within hours. That translated to approximately $58 billion wiped from Bitcoin’s total market capitalization in a single session, as investors sprinted toward what they perceived as safer ground.

What happened and why it matters

The two tankers were empty, which is a detail worth sitting with. CENTCOM described the action as disabling vessels that attempted to breach the blockade, not intercepting weapons or contraband. The targets were Iranian-flagged commercial ships in a waterway that handles about 20% of global oil trade.

Oil prices jumped over 3% on the news, pushing above $110 per barrel. The broader context here is that Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz on February 28, 2026, following US and Israeli airstrikes. The US responded with a naval blockade on Iranian ports.

Bitcoin’s war-time track record is complicated

The pattern played out earlier this year when a ceasefire announcement in April sent Bitcoin surging past $72,000. In the initial hours of a crisis, traders liquidate what’s liquid. Bitcoin, trading 24/7 with deep order books, is the easiest asset on the planet to dump at 3 a.m.

Some crypto analysts have started describing Bitcoin as a “practical tool” for investors during wartime volatility, not because it goes up when bombs drop, but because it provides permissionless access to capital when traditional financial rails get disrupted —

The Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) praised Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul Atkins on Friday for what it described as an ambitious effort to improve clarity for on-chain markets.

SEC’s On-Chain Guidance Agenda
Atkins’ remarks centered on four key areas where he said the Commission should provide more guidance on how regulatory principles translate into the context of on-chain activity. He said that participants should have a clear sense of how on-chain trading systems can function within the regulatory perimeter.

XRP Price Alert: Major Buy Signal Flashes as Analysts Expect Massive Move Ahead

In February, $XRP tried to break out after the early-month calamity but was stopped at $1.65. A month later, the bears stepped up even before that when the asset challenged $1.60. During the following couple of months, the cross-border token’s attempts were exhausted long before those levels, at $1.50 in April and $1.47 in May.

On the positive side, all of these rejections were met by fresh buying power at around $1.30, which became $XRP’s most important support since then. Now, another buying signal has flashed, and the question is whether this time will finally be any different for the token or if it will be more of the same.

$XRP Buy Signal

Ali Martinez, who frequently touches upon the TD Sequential metric, noted that the indicator has flashed a buy signal on $XRP’s 4-hour chart. The metric is used to determine the exhaustion of price moves in either direction for the underlying asset. Although it doesn’t have a 100% success rate, it’s generally very reliable when it comes to $XRP in particular, as the analyst noted.

The latest example was on May 6, when it flashed a sell signal after $XRP tapped $1.46 for the first time in several weeks. The subsequent rejection pushed the token south by over 5% in less than 48 hours.

Martinez said about today’s buy signal flash that it suggests the “local exhaustion is over, and $XRP is ready to rebound.” He speculated that the first move would be toward the same resistance at $1.45 and posted a secondary, more bullish target at $1.80 “once we clear the overhead supply.”

Analyst Projects $XRP Surge To $3 Then Higher
In a separate X post, market expert $XRP Queen stated that $XRP is positioning for a significant breakout. She predicts that the cryptocurrency could first reach its 2018 all-time high of $3.84, then ultimately target an ambitious $227.According to $XRP Queen, the catalyst behind this rally is $XRP’s growing role as a global payment asset. She noted that the $XRP Ledger (XRPL) has recently entered a $2.7 trillion market that encompasses payments, decentralized media, and the broader Web3 ecosystem. She believes that $XRP could become a core payment rail within this space, potentially fueling substantial price growth.

US adds 115K jobs in April, unemployment rate holds at 4.3%$

The US economy added 115,000 nonfarm payrolls in April, nearly doubling the consensus forecast of roughly 65,000 jobs. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, exactly where economists expected it. Healthcare led the way with 28,000 new positions, followed by gains in retail and leisure. Average hourly earnings rose just 0.2% month-over-month, undershooting the 0.3% increase that had been projected.

Crypto markets felt the impact immediately
Bitcoin dropped below $80,000 within minutes of the release, then recovered to around $80,200 as traders recalibrated. Total liquidations over the 24-hour period surrounding the report exceeded $341 million. Options expirations in Bitcoin and Ethereum were projected to exceed $2 billion, adding another layer of volatility to an already jittery session.

What the Fed is watching
The headline number of 115,000 jobs screams resilience, and probabilities for near-term Federal Reserve rate cuts declined after the data hit. But a 0.2% monthly gain in average hourly earnings, below the 0.3% consensus, suggests that the labor market’s tightness isn’t translating into runaway wage inflation.

Initial jobless claims for the week ending April 16 came in at 207,000, below the expected 215,000. Consumer sentiment, meanwhile, declined, and inflation expectations eased.

What this means for investors
Higher Treasury yields and a firmer US dollar are the typical byproducts of better-than-expected employment data, and both historically act as headwinds for digital assets. The $341 million in liquidations is evidence that this reallocation happens fast and without much warning.

The wage growth miss introduces a counterargument: if inflation expectations continue to moderate, as consumer surveys suggest they are, the Fed could still find room to cut later in the

XRP’s waning price performance seems to have finally influenced the network’s activity, which has seen a notable cooldown in the month of May. Just a few days into May, the network is struggling to attract new wallet addresses. After over a year, new addresses have fallen to one of their lowest levels.

New XRP Addresses Drop Dramatically
The XRP network’s activity and its price are starting to move toward the same negative direction. While the recent momentum in price is slowly fading away, user growth across the network appears to have sharply cooled down.

The slowdown is a result of a significant drop in the number of new wallet addresses created on the network. According to the chart from Glassnode, a popular research and on-chain data analytics platform, the metric has fallen from its peak in late 2024. Currently, the tide of new user onboarding and involvement that formerly drove network growth has slowed in recent months.

Glassnode announced that new wallet addresses on the XRP network have collapsed from 18,000 XRP in a single day in December to about 2,700 XRP per day as of yesterday. This drop from the 2024 high to today’s levels represents a more than 85% decrease after over a year.

In the ever-evolving crypto market, new addresses are often linked to retail investors. Therefore, the declining new addresses’ activity points to a sign of weakening retail involvement, particularly during times of increased speculation and market excitement.

Amid this fading, new wallet addresses created on the XRP network, its monthly active supply is telling a different story. As reported by Glassnode, the monthly active supply is exhibiting bearish activity, dropping from 7.4 billion XRP per day to around 2 billion per day over the same period.

Looking at the setup, the platform has highlighted that the speculative wave that pushed that altcoin’s surge in late 2024 has largely unwound at the network level. In the meantime, this deve
