Get ready for your weekly crypto news rollercoaster. You’re probably thinking that this week the market has been like watching a koala trying to surf 🐨🏄… Fun, but pretty slow!
Bitcoin has spent the entire week trying in vain to break through the $100,000 barrier.
Why hasn’t it been able to break that barrier? The main reason has been Trump’s tariff battle against Mexico, Canada, and China, which has spooked the markets.
But it’s not all bad—when the market moves sideways, it creates windows of opportunity to buy BTC at a low price while preparing for another surge, as some analysts point out 😱
Even though this week has been calmer, we can’t ignore major news such as the launch of BlackRock’s first Bitcoin ETP in Europe or the inclusion of Bitcoin in the upcoming U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund, which will be worth $5.7 trillion.
Ethereum, give it more gas! 💨
Data extracted by Dune Analytics shows that Ethereum validators have been increasing gas limits since early February.
Increasing gas limits allows each block to process more transactions, reducing network congestion and lowering fees.
What does this mean? That Ethereum’s Layer 1 is improving its scalability independently, which could be very positive—especially now that institutional interest in Ethereum has grown significantly, thanks to ETFs.
Trending Coin of the Week: $BERA 🐻
Berachain is a new Layer 1 blockchain compatible with EVM that aims to revolutionize the decentralized finance landscape.
Berachain has implemented a new consensus mechanism called Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL), which optimizes network security and efficiency while incentivizing user participation.
Berachain has generated significant excitement, attracting major companies and ranking among the TOP 5 blockchains with the highest locked funds—even before its launch.
