表示，Ripple 注意到银行和其他机构对已获批准的实时支付选项的兴趣日益浓厚。纽约和德克萨斯州监管机构颁发的 MTL 许可证将允许美国客户合规访问 Ripple Payments 基础设施，从而将公司的服务扩展到更广泛的用户群。此外，这两家 MTL 还增加了 Ripple 的整体许可证组合。这家加密货币公司目前拥有约 55 个全球许可证，包括备受追捧的纽约 BitLicense 和有限目的信托公司特许状。Ripple 还获得了爱尔兰、新加坡和阿拉伯联合酋长国的监管批准。在特朗普政府就任前，XRP 发行方一直处于加密货币讨论的最前沿。Ripple 向 Fairshake 等专注于加密货币的超级政治行动委员会捐赠了大量资金，这些委员会在州和联邦层面都支持支持加密货币的候选人。此外，该公司还在价值 2200 亿美元的法币挂钩代币市场推出了 RLUSD 稳定币，该市场由 Tether (USDT) 主导。尽管 Ripple 是新进入者，但一些人猜测，Ripple 的稳定币举措可能预示着美国即将出台稳定币监管规定。国会议员已在众议院讨论了稳定币法，高级议员之间正在协商法案。Bitwise 首席信息官 Matt Hougan 等专家认为，稳定币规则对数字资产行业的影响可能大于现货比特币产品，后者是一种拥有超过 1230 亿美元投资者资本的资产类别。

South Korean politician Lee Jae-myung has vowed to approve spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds and create a safer investment environment for young investors if elected president. Lee, who is the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, has rolled out a set of crypto-friendly promises as part of a larger pitch to win over younger voters, according to a Korea Economic Daily report. With the June 3 election approaching, Lee made it clear that digital assets would play a key role in his plans. In a social media post on May 6, Lee said he wants to help young people “[build] assets and plan for the future” by making crypto investment safer and more accessible. He pledged to push for the legalization of spot crypto ETFs, along with the creation of a unified oversight system to strengthen protections for investors and bring more transparency to the market.Among other reforms, Lee said he would work to reduce trading fees and overhaul current regulations, signaling a broader effort to make crypto a more stable and mainstream investment option for everyday users. Lee’s message seems aimed squarely at younger South Koreans who’ve been priced out of traditional assets like real estate and stocks and are turning to crypto in search of better returns.

With around 16 million crypto users, roughly 36% of the electorate, digital asset investors have become a major voting bloc. Politicians from both major parties are actively courting them.  The Democratic Party has reportedly brought in a token securities expert, Professor Kim Yong-jin, to help shape policy, and one of its lawmakers recently introduced a draft bill dubbed the Digital Asset Promotion Basic Act. Meanwhile, the ruling People Power Party has laid out its own ambitious plan to support the crypto sector.  Back in April, the party unveiled a seven-part strategy, including a commitment to approve spot Bitcoin ETFs this year. Further, it wants to scrap South Korea’s one-exchange-one-bank rule, allow institutions to trade crypto, and roll out a stablecoin regulatory framework in line with global standards. As previously reported by crypto.news, Representative Park Soo-min of the People Power Party said South Korea has “no time to delay” on ETFs, especially with jurisdictions like Hong Kong and the U.S. already moving ahead. The party is also pushing to set up a special crypto committee directly under their presidential candidate, Kim Moon-soo, who has spoken out about the lack of protection for the millions of Koreans now invested in digital assets.

Bitcoin price started the month on a strong note, crossing the important resistance level at $96,000 for the first time since February. Bitcoin (BTC) jumped above $97,000, up by almost 30% from its lowest level in April. Its rally occurred as investors adopted a risk-on sentiment, with the Crypto Fear and Greed Index rising to 55.  U.S. stocks also continued their upward momentum, with the Dow Jones and Nasdaq 100 indices both jumping by over 350 points. Below are the top three reasons why Bitcoin may be on its way to $100,000, and possibly an all-time high, in May. 1. Bitcoin price’s death cross pattern failed in April One major reason for optimism is that Bitcoin avoided forming a death cross pattern last month. A death cross occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day moving average — typically a bearish signal. In April, the spread between these two averages narrowed significantly but ultimately did not cross. This mirrors what happened in September 2023, when a near-death cross preceded an 83% rally in BTC. A similar setup could signal another bullish surge. Bitcoin has other bullish technical catalysts that may push it above $100,000 and even its all-time high. It formed a double-bottom pattern at $76,560, and has now moved above the neckline at $88,830. It has also moved above the upper side of the small bullish flag pattern shown in yellow. Therefore, all these patterns indicate further gains in May.  BTC price chart | Source: crypto.news You might also like:Cardano holds above key support as developer activity tops Ethereum 2. Bitcoin’s institutional demand is rising Another potential catalyst for Bitcoin is the growing number of institutions actively purchasing the coin. A notable example is that spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of $2.9 billion in April, bringing cumulative inflows to over $39 billion.  In addition, more companies are building and increasing their Bitcoin treasuries. Cantor Fitzgerald, Tether, and SoftBank have teamed up to create Twenty One, a company whose sole purpose is to buy Bitcoin. Other firms, such as Trump Media and GameStop, have also announced plans to acquire Bitcoin. More companies are likely to continue buying Bitcoin as it gradually evolves into a safe-haven asset. It has outperformed stocks and other risk assets since Trump delivered his Liberation Day tariff speech. 3. Federal Reserve and Donald Trump pivot Bitcoin is also expected to receive a boost from Donald Trump and the Federal Reserve, particularly following this week’s economic data. A report released on Tuesday showed that consumer confidence tumbled in April. Another report revealed that the private sector created just 61,000 jobs in April, well below the median estimate of 121,000. The US economy also contracted for the first time since 2022, raising concerns about a possible recession. These numbers suggest that both Trump and the Fed may pivot this month. Trump could begin negotiating trade deals with countries, including China. Meanwhile, the Fed may signal that it is ready to intervene by cutting interest rates. These two actions will end the top risks facing the market this year, and push risky assets like Bitcoin higher.

尽管比特币已经考虑了许多经济衰退的担忧，但 Bitwise 的分析师警告称，未来仍可能存在风险。 比特币（BTC）以及其他山寨币可能已经反映出对美国经济衰退的担忧，但如果经济衰退真的发生，仍然有可能出现更多下跌。 在最近的一份研究报告中，加密货币管理公司 Bitwise 的分析师指出，比特币在过去经济衰退期间的表现好坏参半。例如，在 2020 年新冠疫情期间，比特币被抛售了 50% 以上，但年底仍上涨了 300% 以上。 美国经济放缓/衰退概率 | 资料来源：Bitwise 你可能还喜欢：经济学家警告经济衰退：比特币和山寨币会崩盘还是上涨？ 基于此，分析师表示“如果股市继续下跌，比特币很可能会继续承压”。到目前为止，比特币已经从峰值下跌了约 27%，这表明大部分对经济衰退的担忧都反映在了价格上。 “这里的关键点是，正如我们所说，对美国经济衰退的担忧已经反映在比特币和其他加密资产的价格中，但如果美国经济衰退真的成为现实，可能还会留下一些下行空间。” 按位 然而，分析师也看到了“不确定性达到顶峰”的迹象，指出美国经济政策的不确定性“与新冠疫情期间一样高”，并且“谷歌上‘衰退’一词的搜索趋势也与新冠疫情期间一样高”。 正如 QCP Capital 的分析师早些时候在 Telegram 帖子中指出的那样，市场目前的焦点是唐纳德·特朗普总统即将于 4 月 2 日宣布的“解放日”，预计他将在当天公布新的互惠关税。 分析师指出，在消费者信心处于 12 年来的最低水平且股市已承受每周 4-5% 下跌压力的情况下，激进的贸易政策可能会加剧人们对经济衰退的担忧，并进一步拖累包括比特币在内的风险资产。 阅读更多：分析师称，由于散户活动保持低位，现货比特币 ETF 流入量短期内不太可能上升
