Bitcoin To Fall Again, Cycle Bottom Likely In Q3 

In an X post on May 8, Aralez shares an interesting Bitcoin price prediction for the last eight months of 2026. While prices have gained by 13% in the last month, the market pundit predicts that Bitcoin should eventually move towards the $60,000 before the present quarter expires. The projected price retrace is expected to coincide with a decline in the S&P 500 below $6000, suggesting a worsening or unfavorable macroeconomic environment. At this point, panic is expected to ravage the market, leading to a sharp deterioration in investor sentiment.

$XRP Seeing Rapid Growth
$XRP’s recent market growth comes from an increase in the value of the JMWH product from Justoken, a tokenized energy product resident solely on the $XRP Ledger, which represents watts of real-world electricity.

Specifically, the value of JMWH increased by a whopping $895.6 million within a single day last month, bringing its total worth to $1.76 billion. Currently, JMWH accounts for more than 86% of the total tokenized commodity value on $XRP, making it the biggest product in the ecosystem.

With JMWH’s growth, the value of tokenized commodities on the XRPL has risen by an impressive 79% over the past 30 days, as $XRP sees the largest spike among the top 10 ecosystems. The 26% market share currently held by $XRP indicates a 69.67% increase from 15% over the past 30 daysTokenized Commodity League Table
Meanwhile, besides JMWH, multiple commodity products from Ctrl Alt also reside in the $XRP ecosystem. For instance, the XRPL hosts $105 million worth of the Diamonds: AD Collection 1 and $46 million worth of the Diamonds: SD Collection 1.

Worth noting, processing over 5 billion tokens per day has become the norm since toward the end of April. April alone processed almost 120 billion tokens.The founder of Akash Network, Greg Osuri, echoed this incredible milestone. Some users were using AKT to host on the network without being aware of it. Greg wrote on X,

Its incredible what you can achieve by abstracting away crypto rails.

In addition to Greg Osuri’s backing, Forbes also supported the initiative. Forbes named Akash Network alongside Render Network [RENDER] and Bittensor [TAO] as the core AI infrastructures powering decentralized computing.

Forbes called them the layers that would eliminate the need for centralized cloud providers entirely.

As such, token trading volume on the network surged immensely and continues to do so.

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

Venice Token price: Why this AI crypto coin is soaring and what nextThe Venice Token price has continued its strong surge this month and is now trading at its all-time high. VVV token was trading at $15.2 on Sunday, a few points below the record high of $16.65. It remains nearly 1,500% above its lowest level in December last year. 

Venice Token price rallying amid growing usage and token burns
AI tokens have done relatively well in the past few weeks. For example, Bittensor (TAO) token has jumped by 9% in the last seven days. NEAR, ICP, Render, Virtuals, and FET have all jumped by over 10% in this period. 

Venice Token, on the other hand, has jumped by over 65% in this period, making it one of the top gainers in the industry. This surge happened because it is one of the top projects bringing real-world application of blockchain technology to the real world.

For starters, Venice AI operates a platform that integrates most AI models like DeepSeek, Grok, ChatGPT, and Claude. Users enter their queries and then the platform selects the best model to use, while emphasizing privacy.

Venice uses a freemium model. Users can use its platform for free or pay for tiered subscriptions, which start at $18 all the way to $200 a month. 

The VVV token has soared this year because of the ongoing hype around AI that has pushed top assets to record highs. For example, AI companies like Sandisk, Micron, and Western Digital are the top gainers in the S&P 500 Index this year. 

Similarly, AI companies have seen their valuations surge, with analysts placing Anthropic’s real value at over $1 trillion, up from $380 billion a few months ago. Anthropic’s annualized run rate (ARR) has jumped to over $30 billion. 

Therefore, traders believe that Venice should also have a similar valuation because of its ongoing growth. SimilarWeb data shows that Venice’s website had 26 m

Despite funding rates remaining broadly negative for weeks, open interest has recorded its strongest increase since the beginning of 2026. What makes the move particularly notable is that the current increase in open interest is already larger than the expansion seen during BTC’s previous ATH formation.

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.

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.

Chainlink emerges as DeFi’s security-driven liquidity destination

As the rsETH exploit exposed deeper weaknesses across DeFi infrastructure, roughly $3 billion in capital rotated towards Chainlink-integrated protocols within days. Liquidity increasingly exited compromised oracle systems and exploited bridge infrastructure tied to Chaos Labs and LayerZero.

This migration accelerated after the exploit temporarily erased more than $10 billion from DeFi TVL. Liquidity conditions across affected Aave markets also temporarily froze as systemic stress intensified.

Teams re-evaluating security architecture increasingly migrated towards Chainlink’s CCIP and Data Feeds after resilience during previous market disruptions. This behavior increasingly reflects how DeFi capital now prioritizes infrastructure reliability over aggressive short-term yield opportunit

Israel reportedly established a covert military outpost deep in the Iraqi desert to support its recent air campaign against Iran, according to a Wall Street Journal report citing sources familiar with the operation, including U.S. officials. The secret installation allegedly played a major role in the joint U.S.-Israeli conflict against Iran by serving as a logistical center for Israeli military operations. The report stated that the clandestine base was constructed shortly before the outbreak of the U.S.-Israel war against Iran and was created with Washington's knowledge. The facility reportedly housed Israeli special forces units, aviation support crews, and search-and-rescue teams prepared to recover Israeli pilots in the event aircraft were shot down during missions over the region. Tensions escalated in early March when Iraqi state media reported that a local shepherd noticed suspicious helicopter activity and unusual military movements in the desert area.

Solana: Amid rising ETF inflows and whale demand, will SOL break $97?
Whale buying and ETF inflows boosted Solana's bullish sentiment, while a breakout above $97 could trigger a 21% rally.Solana [SOL] is now attracting the attention of major crypto players amid the ongoing market recovery. On the 9th of May, SOL climbed more than 6.50% and was trading at $93.71 for the first time since the 18th of March. 

Rising prices have also boosted traders’ and investors’ confidence, as evidenced by the trading volume, which surged over 20% to $5.12 billion, as per CoinMarketCap data. 

Solana: Growing whale and institutional demand 
Amid this market recovery, a crypto whale purchased a massive 67,648 SOL worth $6.23 million after remaining dormant for seven months, according to crypto transaction trackerIn fact, institutional demand has also been observed through spot Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), as reported by analytics platform SoSoValue. Data shows that on May 8, 2026, U.S. spot SOL ETFs recorded inflows of $6.23 million.Besides all this, the derivatives platform CoinGlass reveals that not only whales and institutions are bullish on crypto, but intraday traders are also following the same trend.

Data from the SOL exchange liquidation map, $90.70 on the downside and $94.50 on the upside, are the two major liquidation levels.

At these levels, traders are heavily overleveraged, with $174.48 million worth of long positions and $42.75 million worth of short positions built up, indicating that bulls are expecting the price to move higher. These transactions indicate that demand for SOL is growing and that the cryptocurrency has strong upside potential.
