Today’s Edition

🏛️ States increase oversight of crypto kiosks

States across the U.S. clamp down on crypto ATMs

U.S. states including Illinois, Rhode Island, Nebraska, Vermont, and Arizona are rolling out licensing, fraud‑warning requirements, and daily limits for crypto kiosks—a response to rising scams targeting seniors. Retailers and regulators expect this to reduce fraud but may also limit consumer access. AARP supports more consumer‑protection measures. Cities like Spokane have gone as far as outright bans. The next step: how federal authorities respond.

📊 Middle East calm restores risk appetite

Geopolitical calm boosts crypto markets

Markets rallied after de‑escalation in the Middle East, with Bitcoin jumping ~3.5% to ~$105,500 and Ether up ~7.5% amid risk‑on sentiment. The crypto fear index moved from “fear” to “neutral.” Investors, previously sidelined, are accumulating. Watch for further cues from global tensions to sustain momentum.

📈 Bitcoin nears long-term support band

Bitcoin price is testing its multi‑cycle support band

This logarithmic rainbow chart shows BTC consolidating within its typical growth band, a sign that bulls are defending the lower edge after recent surges. Historically, prices hovering near this support lead to renewed breakouts. If it holds, next resistance lies near the red zone. If not, deeper retracement possible.

🚀 Meme coins evolve into real infrastructure

Layer‑2 meme chain bridges hype and utility

Ethereum whale activity shows a $250K allocation to Little Pepe ($LILPEPE), a Layer‑2 meme‑chain now in Stage 3 presale. Its tech includes bot protection and launchpad tools—a trend where memecoins blend with utility. Investors are eyeing 2–10× upside if listings and usage take off.

🔁 LINK rockets on new TradFi partnership

Mastercard fuels Chainlink rally with partnership news

Chainlink (LINK) surged ~13% after an announcement about a Mastercard integration—underscoring growing demand for real‑world oracles. This aligns with the broader theme of stablecoins and DeFi layering on legacy financial infrastructure. Next: developer tools and enterprise pilots.

Degen Domain

🐸 BTC Bull Token presale gains traction

BTC Bull Token offers passive Bitcoin yield

BTC Bull Token is surging in its presale, raising over $7.3M and aiming for $8M as BTC rebounds—offering holders free Bitcoin rewards as BTC hits milestones. Market cap is still in presale, but the reward structure and Bitcoin link make it stand out from pure memecoins. If Bitcoin continues its rally, this token could spark high degen interest.
