A major milestone occurred for the cryptocurrency industry in May 2025 when decentralized exchanges (DEXs) reached an unprecedented global market share of 25% in spot trading volume.

While Bitcoin remains close to its recent peaks, it’s becoming clear that investor sentiment is starting to shift.
Data shows that the $BTC market has become less favorable for momentum buyers, with a much sharper uptick in profit-taking. The late-stage telling may be that both momentum and reversal signals are now being sold by indicators. All of this is starkly contrasted by the first-time...
The AI agent market kept up its weekend momentum and posted some moderate gains as capital rotation in the space started to cool.

In the high-stakes crypto universe, tokens from seemingly the same sector can have wildly differing market performances.
A striking example of this is unfolding right now with $ZK and $STRK, two tokens with comparable unlock percentages but significantly diverging price trajectories. While $STRK currently trades at a price above its total fundraising valuation, $ZK has slipped below its own...
In a notoriously volatile arena, few tales embody the extremes of crypto trading better than that of James Wynn.
Once seen as a trading legend for transforming barely $1,000 into the aforementioned $83 million in 70 days, Wynn’s image took a sharp turn after he lost over half of that time in the same space — one of the most staggering individual collapses in crypto history.
