The Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show podcast.
Hey, it’s Crypto Willy here with everything you need to know from the last wild week on The Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show! We’ve seen Bitcoin and crypto swinging for the fences, but the big headlines weren’t just about price action—they were about major moves in Washington, historic bills, and even a presidential signature that could change the game for U.S. digital assets.
First up, let’s talk about what Congress dubbed “Crypto Week.” The House of Representatives, led by Chairman French Hill and Agriculture Chairman GT Thompson, brought blockchain and digital asset policy front and center. Lawmakers moved forward on the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, and saw the Senate’s GENIUS Act make its way to President Trump’s desk. On Friday, President Trump himself signed the GENIUS Act, officially launching the first comprehensive regulatory framework for U.S. stablecoins. Trump called it “the greatest revolution in financial technology since the birth of the Internet,” and emphasized its promise to “strengthen the dollar” while giving U.S. banks and fintech a clear path to issuing new, dollar-backed digital assets.
Along with the GENIUS Act, the Clarity Act sets rules for digital commodities outside of just stablecoins, and the Anti-CBDC Act means the Fed is now officially blocked from launching a retail central bank digital currency in the U.S. Trump addressed the crypto community, saying they were “mocked and dismissed” until now, but this “massive validation” marks a seismic shift. The crypto industry’s spent years calling for exactly this kind of legal clarity. Now, builders and investors have a homegrown roadmap, with more innovation projected to stay on American soil.
While Washington was popping bottles, Bitcoin itself was flexing big-time. BTC hit a new all-time high near $122,000 midweek, with analysts like those at CoinDCX keeping a bullish tone and pointing to record ETF inflows. We’re talking $2.7 billion in new institutional flows, and big names like Cantor Fitzgerald—led by Brandon Lutnick—closing deals with Blockstream’s Adam Back. This week alone, Cantor is snapping up a $3.5 billion Bitcoin position, mirroring Michael Saylor’s famous MicroStrategy strategy.
For those tracking technicals, the consensus is: as long as Bitcoin trades above the 20-day EMA, the bias stays positive. Near term, places like Changelly peg next week’s target around $121,000 to $123,000, though there are whispers—ok, full-on shouts from CoinStats and PlanB—that $135k or beyond could be in reach before summer’s out. Fear & Greed indexes are holding strong in the ‘greed’ zone, but experts from Northeastern University also caution there could be “bubble” territory at these levels. If a pullback comes, look for $110k-$112k to be strong support.
Meanwhile, the rest of the market’s keeping pace—Ethereum’s ETF saw record inflows, and retail demand is rising dramatically for both blue chips and up-and-coming projects alike.
It’s been nothing short of electric: historic laws, record prices, and a real sense that the U.S. is stepping into its crypto moment.
