Key takeaways: HYPE appears to be forming a cup-and-handle pattern, a classic bullish continuation setup. Read more

Sellers have pulled Bitcoin back below the $79,000 level, but buying may emerge as the price nears the $76,000 support. Key points: Bitcoin’s (BTC) recovery above $82,000 on Thursday was short-lived, as bears sold at higher levels and pulled the price back to the $79,000 level. Glassnode said in its Week On-chain report that several investors bought BTC between November 2025 and February near the $86,900 level. These holders may sell near their entry price after experiencing large drawdowns, creating a barrier for BTC’s continued rally. Another negative view came from crypto analytics firm CryptoQuant, which said in a recent report that BTC has hit its major resistance at the 200-day moving average near $82,400. In 2022, BTC had resumed its downtrend after failing to cross above the 200-day SMA. BTC may get into trouble if history repeats itself. Read more

Coinbase and Circle's commitment to Hyperliquid's AQAv2 upgrade sent HYPE up to roughly $45 on May 14, a deal that makes USDC the platform's aligned quote asset and directs the vast majority of reserve-yield revenue back to the protocol. The rally reflected traders reading the announcement as institutional validation of the protocol-aligned stablecoin model pioneered […] The post HYPE jumps as Coinbase and Circle back Hyperliquid’s stablecoin model appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Bitcoin’s pullback is expected to find support near $79,000, but every recovery attempt is likely to be sold into. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) extended its pullback on Wednesday and slipped below the $80,000 level. However, analysts remain optimistic about BTC’s prospects in the near term. Analyst CRG said in a post on X that BTC did not break above the Ichimoku cloud even once during the previous bear market, and when it did, a new bull market started. Interestingly, BTC has risen comfortably above the Ichimoku cloud, weakening the comparison with the previous bear market cycle. Read more

Bitcoin looks set for another blockbuster week, but potential resistance at $84,000 could complicate the rally. Will altcoin consolidation continue? Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) has pulled back at the start of the week, but the bulls are trying to maintain the price above $81,500. Crypto sentiment platform Santiment said in a recent report that the current ratio of bullish to bearish comments on social media is 1.5:1. That suggests the current up move may not have much legs, as rallies supported by a confident crowd tend to fizzle out faster than those amid growing skepticism. A negative sign for BTC is that it is facing rejection at the 200-day exponential moving average ($82,039). Since November 2025, every rejection at the 200-day EMA has been followed by sharp drawdowns of between 25% and 36%. If history repeats itself, BTC may see a 30% drawdown toward $56,000. Read more

Bitcoin continues to find buyers on each dip, but charts suggest traders may struggle to overcome the $84,000-$92,000 resistance cluster. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) pulled back near $79,000 on Friday, but buying at lower levels pushed the price toward $80,000. The next big question on traders’ minds is whether BTC will resume its uptrend or higher levels will again attract aggressive selling from bears.  CryptoQuant analyst IT Tech said in a Thursday QuickTake note that BTC needs to rally and maintain above $88,880 for a bottom to be confirmed. Until then, the $85,000 to $88,000 range is likely to see selling by buyers who want to “get out flat.” Read more

Bitcoin sellers may show up if BTC hits $84,000, but altcoin charts continue to predict new price highs. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) rallied above $82,800 on Wednesday, but bulls were unable to hold the higher levels. However, a positive sign for the bulls is that BTC exchange-traded funds recorded $1.63 billion in net inflows in May, according to SoSoValue data. That suggests investors are building positions as they anticipate the uptrend to continue.  Analyst PlanC said in a post on X that BTC was about to enter its first supercycle, which began at the bear-market low of $16,000 in Nov. 2022. He expects BTC to rise above $250,000 in the second half of 2027 to the first half of 2028.  Read more

Bitcoin has broken above the $79,500 level, backed by solid buying by institutional investors. Will the altcoins also follow? Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) opened the new week with a rally above $80,500, suggesting the bulls are attempting to take charge. Analysts are closely watching the $80,000 level, as some believe a failure to close above it could trigger a move toward $60,000.  However, crypto analyst Matthew Hyland said in a post on X that traders calling BTC’s fall to $60,000 and lower ‘will be the ones flipping bullish late above $90K.”  Read more

Technical charts suggest that Bitcoin’s rally continuation is fully dependent on bulls securing a weekly close above $75,000. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) has risen above $78,000, extending upon its 11.87% rally in April, per CoinGlass data. The recovery in April was supported by solid buying in the US spot BTC exchange-traded funds, which saw $1.97 billion in inflows, according to SoSoValue data. The rally is expected to encounter selling in the zone between the True Market Mean at $78,000 and the Short-Term Holder (STH) cost basis at $79,000. Analysts are closely monitoring the $80,000 level, which needs to be flipped into support for confirmation that bulls remain in control. Read more

HIP-4 could become a dominant prediction-market venue because Hyperliquid users can get economic exposure to platform usage through HYPE, unlike users of Polymarket or Kalshi.

Bitcoin’s sell-off accelerated leading into this week’s FOMC, but charts highlight some positives for BTC and altcoins. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) rallied above $77,900 on Wednesday, but the long wick on the candlestick shows selling on rallies. On-chain analyst Willy Woo said in a post on X that BTC needs to close above the $79,000 cost basis of recent investors to strengthen the recovery. Woo gave BTC only 30% odds of rising above $79,000 in this attempt. Another cautious view came from crypto trading account CRYPTOWZRD, who highlighted the risks of downside in June. CRYPTOWZRD said in a post on X that historically BTC has corrected for a few months after a new Federal Reserve chair takes over. With Kevin Warsh slated to take over as the Fed chair in May, could BTC “break the curse,” or will it see a final dip?  Read more

Correction to $30 or a pump to $50: what's next for HYPE?

Bitcoin fails to top $80,000 as analysts debate whether BTC has truly changed its trend or remains in the grasp of the bears. Key points: Bitcoin (BTC) attempted to rise above $79,500, but the bears held their ground. BTC investor and author Michael Terpin told Cointelegraph that BTC risks falling to $57,000 in October 2026, based on a study of the “historical average” drawdown of about 1 year from a market-cycle top. Terpin added that BTC will have to rise above $100,000 for the bull market to resume. Another negative view came from Bitcoin analyst Matthew Hyland, who said in a post on X that the “larger expected consensus outcome for BTC is another leg lower by October.” Veteran trader Peter Brandt also opined in an X post that BTC may form “an investable low” in September or October.
