Hey everyone, Crypto Willy here, your go-to guy for everything crypto and blockchain! Let’s dive straight into this week’s whirlwind in the crypto market, with special focus on the big dogs: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and what’s buzzing in DeFi.

Starting up top, Bitcoin came flying out of a rocky Q1 slump to hit the week of May 13, 2025, with a vengeance. After shaking off heavy profit-taking and market jitters earlier this year, BTC reclaimed ground fast—surging back from April’s low of about $74,000 to hover around $95,000 this week. That means a 24% jump from the low and a cool 15% gain over just the past month. The $95,000 level is now a heavyweight resistance zone, where buyers and sellers are dancing for control. Everyone’s got eyes on the next steps—the experts at CoinDCX and Changelly are calling for BTC to touch or even break the $108,000–$110,000 window if bulls hold momentum. A push past $110K could set off fireworks, but if the market chills, expect a bounce-back near $95K as support is tested. The real psychological battle zone? That coveted $100K mark. Institutions are watching closely, especially after those hotly anticipated Bitcoin ETFs launched, fueling a resurgence in mainstream and Wall Street interest.

On the technical side, momentum overlays and trend indicators are shouting “bull.” If the market keeps its cool, and macro factors like the Fed’s policies don’t spook everyone, there’s a solid shot at even higher highs heading into summer. Folks like PlanB (yep, the stock-to-flow model guy) are talking up the “V-shaped” recovery, reinforcing that this cycle has legs for days.

Swinging over to Ethereum, while the headlines this week are Bitcoin-heavy, ETH is quietly taking advantage of renewed bullish sentiment. Historically, when Bitcoin stabilizes after big runs, Ethereum and the top DeFi tokens start to steal some of the show. Expect ETH’s price to shadow BTC’s momentum, with analysts looking for flips of key resistance levels of its own. The DeFi world, fueled by protocols like Aave, Uniswap, and Curve, remains a hive of development—there’s a lot of chatter about upgrades and expanded cross-chain liquidity pools, which could be a big driver for ETH and friends as the summer kicks in.

Zooming out, the post-halving cycle narrative is alive and kicking. The market’s resilience after the Q1 dip and spring correction has brought a fresh wave of new capital and old-school hodlers alike. With macro volatility—think inflation data and global rate moves—still in the wings, crypto’s correlation to tech stocks is being tested again. But for now, the charts are bullish, sentiment is high, and the market is leaning into the “up only” narrative, at least until the next plot twist.

So, that’s your whirlwind tour with Crypto Willy. Whether you’re a laser-eyed Bitcoiner, an ETH fan, or a DeFi degenerate, keep your alerts on those resistance and support levels. Until next week—keep it decentralized, my friends!
