He explained that he wanted to speak publicly to share his side of the story “from beginning to end” and express remorse for the financial damage allegedly caused to hundreds of victims.　　Federal prosecutors allege that Delgado orchestrated the scheme between January 2023 and January 2026 by convincing investors to place large amounts of money into what he described as lucrative crypto liquidity pool opportunities. According to investigators, investors were promised guaranteed monthly returns and were told they could withdraw their funds whenever they wanted. Authorities claim those promises were false and that investor money was instead used to sustain the operation and fund a lavish lifestyle.　　The Orlando

The purchase lifted total holdings to over 5.2 million ETH, worth approximately $12.1 billion, making Bitmine the worlds largest Ethereum treasury company.　　Chairman Tom Lee said the firm had deliberately reduced its pace. “We have decided to slow down our pace of weekly accumulation from over 100,000 per week,” he said. “Our previous pace of buys would have us reach 5% by mid-July.”　　Why Bitmine is pulling back on purchases　　Bitmine originally expected to reach its 5% Ethereum supply target in late 2026. The aggressive accumulation pace shortened that timeline to weeks, prompting a reassessment.

Cardano Price Stuck Below $0.30—Will ADA Finally Trigger a Sustained Breakout?

The post Cardano Price Stuck Below $0.30—Will ADA Finally Trigger a Sustained Breakout？ appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　Cardano has reclaimed the 11th position in the crypto market rankings as ADA continues consolidating between $0.25 and $0.28. Optimism surrounding the US-Iran peace talks briefly fueled a bullish breakout toward $0.2884, but fading momentum triggered a pullback toward the key support zone near $0.277. Since then, ADA has struggled to ignite a fresh rally, although the broader bullish structure remains intact. This raises a key question—can Cardano price finally overcome the crucial $0.30 resistance, and if so, when could the breakout occur？　　Cardano Open Interest Spikes as Traders Prepare for a Bigger Move　　The latest Coinglass data suggests traders continue positioning aggressively on Cardano despite the prolonged consolidation below $0.30. ADA Open Interest has climbed close to $590 million, marking one of the highest levels seen in recent weeks. Interestingly, this rise in Open Interest comes while the ADA price remains trapped within a narrow range.　　Typically, rising Open Interest during sideways price action indicates growing trader participation ahead of a volatility expansion. In Cardanos case, this suggests the market may be preparing for a decisive move rather than an extended consolidation phase.　　ADA Price

MiCA tokenization Europe: crypto treasury shift to CASP-ready

Europes crypto market is moving into a tougher, more structured phase, and MiCA tokenization Europe is becoming the frame through which many companies now have to rethink their business. What once looked like a wide-open field for crypto treasury companies and payments platforms is starting to narrow as regulation tightens and investors focus more closely on who generates yield, who has compliance in place, and who can operate across borders.　　That shift is at the center of the case being made by Wojciech Kaszycki, chief strategy officer at BTCS SA and founder of Mobilum. His argument is straightforward: firms that merely hold digital assets may struggle to keep pace, while businesses that combine treasury exposure with operating infrastructure could move ahead.　　It is a notable claim at a time when public companies are increasingly holding digital assets on their balance sheets. The text points to more than 150 and nearly 200 public companies with digital assets in treasury, collectively holding over $100 billion in crypto. However, scale alone is not the same as strategy, and that distinction is now becoming central to Europes next crypto chapter.　　Why BTCS says the market will consolidate　　BTCS SA is described as Europes first dedicated Digital Asset Treasury

US Dollar: Risk sentiment offsets data support – MUFG

MUFGs strategists note that the US Dollar (USD) has weakened despite solid United States (US) jobs data, as optimism over a potential US/Iran deal and surging US equities support risk appetite. They highlight downside risks to the US economy, scope for Federal Reserve (Fed) easing later this year, and warn that prolonged conflict and energy shocks could eventually limit Dollar selling.　　Dollar pressured by risk appetite　　“The US dollar weakened further last week with no resolution to the Middle East conflict in sight. Attacks in the Strait of Hormuz increased but the US maintains the ceasefire remains in place. That has seen oil prices drop over the last week.”　　“The magnitude of such strong risk appetite is lifting global optimism and encouraging US dollar selling. A strong US jobs report was not enough to trigger US dollar strength. The US Dollar could still see renewed gains and the longer the Strait of Hormuz remains closed the greater the potential of a turn in risk sentiment.”　　“We would still conclude that downside risks to the economy remain more relevant at this stage of the cycle. The Michigan Consumer Sentiment index fell to a new record low on Friday with the cost of living concerns very

XRP, Bitcoin and Ethereum as Institutional Collateral Is the Next Step Says Ripple Prime CEO

The post XRP, Bitcoin and Ethereum as Institutional Collateral Is the Next Step Says Ripple Prime CEO appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　Ripple Prime CEO Mike Higgins says cryptocurrencies like XRP, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana could soon play a much larger role in institutional finance through cross-margining and collateral systems.　　Speaking about the future of tokenized finance, Higgins explained that institutions may eventually use digital assets, stablecoins, and tokenized money market funds as collateral for settlement and margin requirements, rather than relying solely on dollars or U.S. Treasuries.　　“Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana tokenizing anything of value as collateral for margin and settlement is the next step,” Higgins said.　　XRP Utility Expands Beyond Payments　　According to Higgins, the next phase of crypto adoption is not just about trading or payments but about using blockchain assets as high-grade collateral across financial markets.　　He explained that cross-margining allows institutions to use assets efficiently across multiple products without first liquidating positions. This could improve capital efficiency while increasing the real-world utility of blockchain networks like the XRP Ledger.　　Higgins also pointed out that major crypto assets are increasingly being treated similarly to products listed on regulated exchanges, especially as institutional infrastructure continues improving.　　“Were still early on in the space,”

Ray Dalio questions Bitcoin safe-haven role as Saylor fires back

Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio said Bitcoin has not acted as the safe-haven asset many investors expected. Ray Dalio said Bitcoin lacks privacy because transactions can be monitored and possibly controlled.Dalio argued investors often sell Bitcoin during market stress to raise liquidity elsewhere.Michael Saylor pushed back, calling gold analog capital and Bitcoin digital capital for collateral.　　In a May 11 post, he said Bitcoin gets heavy attention but has fallen short when compared with gold during market stress.　　Dalio pointed to three issues. He said Bitcoin lacks privacy, trades with a strong link to tech stocks, and remains small compared with gold. He also said gold has a deeper role in the global financial system.　　Privacy remains a key concern　　Dalio wrote, “First, Bitcoin lacks privacy.” He added that transactions can be monitored and potentially controlled. In his view, that makes Bitcoin less attractive to central banks as a reserve asset.　　Bitcoins public ledger is part of its design. All confirmed transactions are recorded on a shared blockchain, allowing the network to verify ownership and spending without a central authority. That structure supports transparency, but it also creates the privacy concern Dalio raised.　　Moreover, Dalio also said Bitcoin has not behaved like gold during stress periods.

Euro: Bearish-leaning against as ZEW stays weak – ING

INGs Francesco Pesole notes EUR/USD has held up with risk sentiment despite Gulf tensions, but warns current levels may not withstand an equity correction. He expects ZEW surveys to show further deterioration in German sentiment and maintains a bearish-leaning view on EUR/USD, arguing a break above 1.180 looks unsustainable while a retest of 1.170 is more likely.　　ZEW weakness and fragile EUR/USD levels　　“EUR/USD has continued to hold up well alongside risk sentiment despite growing pessimism about a resolution in the Gulf. But any meaningful equity correction would likely prove incompatible with current levels, even if ECB pricing remains more hawkish than the Feds.”　　“Todays eurozone calendar includes the ZEW surveys, which will give a first glimpse of sentiment in Germany in May. Consensus is looking at a further deterioration in both the expectations and current situation indices.”　　“These surveys can be hard to interpret in such a geopolitically volatile environment, but the message should be one of (predictable) worsening in the eurozones growth outlook.”　　“Our view of EUR/USD remains bearish-leaning unless we start to see tangible steps towards a US-Iran peace deal. A break above 1.180 hardly looks sustainable in this environment, and a retest of 1.170 looks more likely if anything.”
