Blockchain Investing Strategies: Cryptocurrency Trading Guide podcast.
Hey crypto fam, it’s your pal Crypto Willy here, breaking down the wild week we just had in blockchain investing and crypto trading. Grab your coffee—you’re gonna want to catch every detail!
Let’s kick it off with the headline everyone’s buzzing about: Bitcoin smashed through $110,000 this week, hitting a new all-time high at $110,788.98 late on May 21. That’s a 3% jump in mere days, and it’s got everyone from Michael Saylor over at MicroStrategy to fintech giants like Robinhood and PayPal grinning ear to ear. The usual “sell in May and go away” mantra? Toss it out for 2025. Paul Howard, director at Wincent, summed it up perfectly—this season is about buying in May as institutional dollars and ETF inflows keep charging in.
Speaking of ETFs, U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs reeled in a record $667 million net inflow on Monday alone. For May, we’re talking a jaw-dropping $3.3 billion flooding into these vehicles. BlackRock’s bitcoin ETF is now the fastest-growing in history, and analysts see further green lights coming for new crypto ETFs—think Solana and XRP next in line for approvals. The SEC’s new chair, appointed by the Trump administration, is clearly crypto-friendly, and there’s even a working group in Washington shaping smart digital asset policy.
Over in Europe, regulatory clarity reached a new level thanks to the EU’s MiCA regulation, which is becoming a global playbook for digital assets. Combine this regulatory momentum with companies like MicroStrategy adding bitcoin to reserves through debt and equity financing, and you’ve got the fuel for a summer rally that could shoot the total crypto market cap past $4 trillion. We’re already hovering at $3.3 trillion.
Now, what about new money and must-watch tokens? The big names still dominate: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, Solana, XRP, and even meme king Dogecoin all made the top picks for May. Market strategists point out that crypto, true to its four-year cycle, could peak again before 2025 wraps, with historical highs often lining up a year or so after a bitcoin halving—not a bad time to keep your trading eyes open.
Trading strategies? This week, the smart money focused on riding the ETF wave, scaling into majors on dips, and keeping dry powder for regulatory news drops. Robinhood and PayPal both expanded their crypto offerings, and more traders are staking stablecoins in DeFi platforms for those sweet, steady yields. As always, keeping an eye on global policy shifts and institutional flows is key to staying ahead.
Summing up, the crypto world is on an upswing with unprecedented institutional adoption and regulatory tailwinds. Whether you’re stacking sats, yield farming in DeFi, or eyeing altcoin momentum, the smart strategy is to stay plugged in—and be ready for more fireworks as summer heats up.
