Hoooorrayyyy!!! Profit for everyone in the crypto market today, which today is a sea of green in these choppiest of choppy waters.
Coins that power decentralized finance protocols performed the best, but in a day of profit for all that concludes a week of heavy casualties, it’s difficult to say that any coin performed the worst. At a push, Tezos, which fell by 3% today.
Let’s focus on the gains—Decrypt is a glass-half-full publication, even if we decline to disclose the frothy, noxious liquid with which we fill that glass. In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin's price rose by 1.6%, Ethereum's by 7.76% and Polkadot by 0.76%.
DeFi coins performed swimmingly. Aave rose by 20.88% to $238.1, Uniswap by 18.2% to $10.55, Synthetix to 12.99% to $16.08 and SushiSwap by 13.84% to $7.93.
Chainlink, yesterday’s winner that hit a new all-time high of $25, slunk down to $23.98 today and increased by just 0.63% in the past 24 hours. Chainlink powers a decentralized oracle network.
Altcoins are always more volatile than the rest of the market, in part because of their small market cap. Also, because their fate is tied to Ethereum, the platform that houses their smart contracts, and to Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market cap that sways the entire market.
Bitcoin has had a horrible week. The coin’s price hit lows of $28,900 earlier this week, its lowest price since January 4. The trouble stems from a (debunked) myth about a double-spend glitch, where it was thought that the same Bitcoin had been spent twice. This spooked the market and caused software company NexTech AR Solutions to sell off 130 bitcoins, or roughly $4 million.
On closer inspection this is likley to be an instance of RBF, where the lower fee transaction won

Standard Chartered has raised its Ethereum price target to $25,000 by 2028, a major shift from March forecasts that predicted a structural decline for the world's second-largest crypto. The UK banking giant made a massive revision on its Ethereum outlook, now projecting $7,500 by the end of 2025, $12,000 in 2026, $18,000 in 2027, and $25,000 in both 2028 and 2029, up from its earlier $4,000 target for 2025. "We raise our price forecasts, as the backdrop for ETH has improved dramatically in recen...
A supposedly banned Coinbase ad is appearing on YouTube videos belonging to Channel 4, one of Britain's biggest broadcasters, sources familiar with the matter told Decrypt. The cryptocurrency exchange released its “Everything Is Fine” ad last month—a big-budget, two-minute commercial that depicts the U.K. as bleak, rat infested and dirty, with prices in supermarkets spiraling out of control. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong claimed the advert was "banned" by British TV networks, and argued this amou...
Ethereum ETFs and strategic reserves now account for 7.98% of ETH’s total supply, according to data from Strategic ETH Reserve.xyz. This percentage has risen from about 3% as recently as the beginning of April, when no publicly listed company held any Ethereum as a reserve asset. Since then a wave of corporations have added ETH to their treasuries, helping the altcoin to rise from $1,800 in early April to its current price of $4,300. This includes firms such as Bitmine Immersion Tech, The Ether...
