Bitcoin Futures and Options Hit Record Highs as $300K Calls Signal Bullish Frenzy

California Representative Maxine Waters, ranking member of the US House 
Financial Services Committee, has announced plans to introduce legislation &#8220;to 
block [Donald] Trump&#8217;s memecoin and stop his crypto corruption.&#8221;
In a May 22 notice, Rep. Waters said the Stop Trading, Retention, and Unfair 
Market Payoffs (TRUMP) in Crypto Act of 2025 bill would be aimed at blocking 
the US President, Vice President, members of Congress, and their families from 
engaging in &#8220;crypto crime.&#8221; The US lawmaker referred to Trump and his wife, 
Melania, issuing personal memecoins in January, his family launching a 
stablecoin, USD1, through the crypto platform World Liberty Financial, and the 
president attempting to establish a national Bitcoin (BTC) reserve as his sons 
back a BTC mining venture.
&#8220;Donald Trump is preparing to dine with the top donors of his memecoin who&#8217;ve 
made him, and his family, richer,&#8221; said Waters, adding:
&gt; &#8220;Trump&#8217;s crypto con is not just a scam to target investors. It&#8217;s also a 
&gt; dangerous backdoor for selling influence over American policies to the 
&gt; highest foreign bidder.&#8221;

Waters&#8217; bill was one of many actions announced to oppose the president&#8217;s 
dinner to reward memecoin holders. Senators Chris Murphy and Elizabeth Warren 
are expected to attend a press event with representatives for the consumer 
advocacy group Public Citizen, and two Democratic organizations will protest 
at the Trump National Golf Club outside Washington, DC, where the memecoin 
dinner will be held.
This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it 
becomes available.

Bitcoin Ghost Wallets Awaken: $33M in BTC Moves After 12-Year Slumber

Ethereum is holding firm above the $2,500 level after weeks of strong buying 
pressure and bullish momentum, despite having lost more than 60% of its value 
since December 2024. The asset’s resilience comes at a pivotal time: Bitcoin 
has officially broken its all-time high, triggering optimism that a new phase 
of the market cycle is beginning—one that could deliver explosive gains for 
altcoins. Related Reading: Solana Multi-Year Uptrend Holds Strong – Analyst 
Sees SOL Breaking ATH This Year For Ethereum to fulfill its usual leadership 
role in an altcoin rally, it must break above current resistance zones and 
confirm a recovery structure. As price action continues to develop, analysts 
are watching closely for signals that ETH is ready to outperform once again. 
To illustrate just how deep the correction was, Sentora (formerly 
IntoTheBlock) shared a key metric: after Ethereum’s sharp sell-off that began 
in December, the share of addresses in profit plunged from over 90% to just 
32% by April 2025. The rebound since then has been remarkable, but the road to 
a full recovery is still developing. If Ethereum can maintain support and 
reclaim higher levels, the stage may be set for a broader altseason that could 
reshape sentiment across the crypto market. Volatility Grows: Ethereum Eyes A 
Breakout Ethereum bulls have regained control after a turbulent few months, 
forming a bullish price structure as the asset attempts to reclaim the $2,700 
level. The surge began with a clean breakout above $2,200, and despite recent 
volatility, Ethereum is showing signs of strength. On Sunday, ETH spiked above 
$2,550 before retracing to $2,400 in a sharp pullback. Since then, price 
action has stabilized, and with Bitcoin pushing into new all-time highs, 
Ethereum appears poised to follow. Analysts now expect a potential breakout if 
ETH can flip $2,700 into support. Momentum is building as selling pressure 
fades, and buyer confidence grows. Many view this as a key inflection point: 
if bulls sustain their push, Ethereum could reassert leadership in a market 
increasingly tilted toward altcoins. Supporting this bullish outlook is fresh 
on-chain data from Sentora. Following a brutal drawdown that began in December 
2024, the percentage of ETH addresses in profit collapsed from over 90% to 
just 32% by April 2025. Since then, the recovery has been dramatic—nearly 60% 
of addresses are now back in profit. According to Sentora, this level of 
volatility hasn’t been seen since the explosive 2017 bull cycle. If Ethereum 
continues this trend and breaks out of its current range, it may not only 
confirm a strong recovery but also spark the next major leg of altseason.

Analyst ETH Tests Critical Resistance Ethereum is now trading at a pivotal 
level, having surged to $2,687 with a 5.3% daily gain. The chart shows ETH 
challenging its 200-day simple moving average (SMA) at $2,702, a key technical 
barrier that has historically acted as resistance. After multiple failed 
attempts to break past this level in recent weeks, today’s bullish momentum 
puts ETH on the verge of a potential breakout. The bullish structure is 
supported by strong upward volume, signaling renewed buyer interest. Notably, 
the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), currently at $2,444, has 
provided solid support throughout May, creating a base for this upward push. 
If Ethereum decisively closes above the $2,700 region, it could set the stage 
for a rally toward $3,000 and beyond, confirming a shift in trend after months 
of bearish pressure. Related Reading: Dogecoin Momentum Fades – Analyst 
Expects $0.213 Retest However, the price is still within a consolidation 
range, and bulls must hold above $2,600 to maintain this breakout potential. 
Failure to do so may result in a short-term retracement back to the 
$2,400–$2,450 demand zone. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
