ALPACA price tanks 30% as Alpaca Finance begins wind-down after four-year run
Once a top protocol on BNB Chain, Alpaca Finance will discontinue leveraged yield farming, stablecoin services, and its perpetual exchange by December. Alpaca Finance, a decentralized finance project known for leveraged yield farming on BNB Chain, is shutting down after four years — and while the team says it’s the “most responsible” move for the community, the market didn’t take it well, with ALPACA ALPACA-30.13%Alpaca Finance falling nearly 30% to $0.1126. In a blog post late Monday, the Alpaca Finance team said it had made “the incredibly difficult decision to begin sunsetting Alpaca Finance and all of its products,” citing shrinking revenue, failed acquisition talks, and the recent delisting of ALPACA from Binance as reasons behind the move. “This choice wasn’t made lightly, but we believe it is the most responsible course of action to safeguard our community and ensure a graceful and secure wind-down.”The Alpaca Finance team Alpaca Finance launched in early 2021 with a leveraged yield farming platform that gained traction on BNB Chain. Over time, the team introduced other products such as automated vaults, an AUSD stablecoin, and a perpetual trading platform dubbed “Alperp.” #ALPACA #crypto
PancakeSwap price surges 30% in a month as Infinity upgrade sparks CAKE demand
CAKE price surged over 30% in the past month as traders are increasingly incentivized to buy and hold CAKE in order to qualify for real-time fee discounts enabled by the recently integrated trustless hooks on PancakSwap Infinity. PancakeSwap CAKE17.12%PancakeSwap has seen 30% jump in the past month, currently trading at $2.67. The surge is likely buoyed by the recent integration of the Brevis trustless hooks on PancakeSwap Infinity. The Brevis Hooks system enables PancakeSwap Infinity to offer personalized, dynamic trading fees that are fully enforced by onchain logic—eliminating the need for staking, which is usually required on exchanges where users must lock up the native token to access fee discounts. Instead, the hooks automatically detect users’ trading volumes and CAKE balances and apply fee discounts in real time. https://twitter.com/PancakeSwap/status/1926861141046706646 For volume-based discounts, the eligible pairs include USDT–USDC and ETH–USDT. Traders who execute higher volumes on these pairs receive reduced fees as a reward for their activity. For CAKE-based discounts, simply holding CAKE in your wallet qualifies users for lower trading fees on these pairs—no staking required. #PancakeSwap #crypto
$QNT is showing early signs of a bullish reversal, with a potential inverse head and shoulders pattern forming on the chart. According to data from crypto.news, Quant QNT10.72%Quant jumped over 10% in the past 24 hours, reaching an intraday high of $106.67 on the morning of May 27. This move pushed its market cap to around $1.55 billion, placing QNT nearly 80% above its year-to-date low. Daily trading volume also shot up by more than 200%, hitting over $50 million. Meanwhile, its open interest spiked 43% to $22.9 million, its highest level since February, hinting at a strong wave of speculative activity. The recent uptick in momentum followed an announcement from CEO Gilbert Verdian, who revealed that Overledger Fusion will begin rolling out in June 2025. The new upgrade, described as a “Layer 2.5” network, introduces multi-chain rollups, secure cross-chain smart contracts, and improved privacy tools, all aimed at helping blockchains work more smoothly with both enterprise systems and DeFi applications. According to Quant, the goal is to fix major pain points that have slowed down institutional adoption of public blockchains, such as compliance risks, data privacy concerns, and poor scalability. By allowing smoother asset and data movement between private and public chains, Fusion could appeal to banks, fintech firms, and other organizations exploring blockchain integration. #QNT #CryptoNewss
The Ethereum price surge highlights positive momentum. Meanwhile, a new AI-powered coin
Ethereum has been on a strong uptrend, reigniting excitement across the crypto market as it climbs past key resistance levels. But while Ethereum’s momentum signals strength, another coin is capturing attention for a different reason: utility. Meet Unilabs, a new AI-powered DeFi project that is offering far more than hype, unlike Dogecoin. It seeks to build an ecosystem where users are incentivized for their hard work and have access to the best crypto investment opportunities. Ethereum predicted to rise to $10,000 The Ethereum price (ETH) has been on an uptrend since the beginning of May. Its value is up 49.2% in gains. On the lower timeframes, the Ethereum price has increased by 12.5% on the biweekly level. Interestingly, there has been a massive increase in whale activity in the past month. Crypto Rover notes that BlackRock is one of the top giants that has been accumulating ETH. Looking ahead, the analyst notes that Ethereum might have a hard time soaring to $4,000. However, Crypto Rover said the Ethereum price could easily surge to $10,000 afterward. Ted notes that the Ethereum price chart is a replica of Bitcoin from 2021. Currently, the altcoin price is consolidating inside an asymmetrical triangle and may soon head higher. If this happens, ETH might rise to $10,000 before the end of the year. Dogecoin skyrockets as memecoins wake up Dogecoin’s price (DOGE) is showing positive signs on both the weekly and monthly charts. CoinMarketCap data shows its value has jumped by 34.4% on the 2W chart. The memecoin is currently one of the top performers in the market and could see more upside if bulls hold their ground. In the meantime, technical indicators point toward a continued rally. The Hull Moving Average (9) and VWMA (10) indicators flash buy signals which shows that bulls have the upper hand. Also, the relative strength index remains above the midline, supporting a Dogecoin price surge. Badger0102 predicts that over the next few weeks, Dogecoin could jump to $0.47. Another expert, Gnarleyjquinn notes that the memecoin is about to make a big move. He posted a chart that showed the Dogecoin price soaring to $0.60. Another analyst called Rose Premium Signals posted a similar Dogecoin price prediction. They say the value of DOGE could soar to $0.61.
As Pepe holds strong at a $5.5b market cap, new contenders like MIND of Pepe and Pepeto are making w
The market is mixed today. According to Nasdaq, the NASDAQ composite is at 18,737.21, showing cautious movement. DOGE is around $0.22, down 3 percent. ETH is holding steady near $2,522. PEPE is still hot at $0.000013 with a $5.5 billion market cap, according to CoinMarketCap and crypto news outlets. Pepe Coin: Still trending, but is the best phase already gone? Pepe Coin is all over the charts again , trending on exchanges, buzzing on social media, and holding a strong place in the memecoin world. Its current price is $0.00001312, with a massive 420 trillion token supply. According to CoinMarketCap, Pepe now has a market cap over $5.5 billion and trades more than $500 million daily. It’s also listed on top exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, OKX, and KuCoin. So yes, it’s visible and active. But here’s the part most people forget: Pepe launched back in April 2023. The real winners were the early buyers, the ones who got in before the noise. For Pepe to simply double in price now, it would need another $5.5 billion to come in. And with no clear roadmap or real use, that’s not easy. So while Pepe still has the spotlight, it may no longer have the upside. The biggest wave might’ve already passed. Another frog joins the hype: MIND of Pepe gears up for big launch Now that we’ve looked at Pepe, let’s take a closer look at another frog making noise, MIND of Pepe. This memecoin mixes Pepe-style branding with AI technology. Its presale is ending soon, and it has already raised a massive amount. Investors who join early will get access to an AI-powered terminal that promises to give market insights, trading ideas, and data tools. The MIND AI agent even posts on social media by itself, building a following on its own. Once the platform goes live, users will be able to interact with the AI directly, with early investors getting first access. Some crypto analysts say the project could grow fast once listed, thanks to the mix of trending meme culture and useful tools. Still, many investors are watching closely for the next token that carries not just hype, but real meaning and direction. That brings us to Pepeto, the God of frogs, and a memecoin with much more story and value. #PEPE #crypto $PEPE
Former U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Christopher Giancarlo has joined Swiss cry
Former U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Christopher Giancarlo has joined Swiss crypto bank Sygnum as a senior policy advisor. Giancarlo, who led the CFTC from 2017 to 2019, will be advising Sygnum on global regulatory developments and strategic partnerships, the company said in a May 27 announcement.

Solana co-founder Raj Gokal’s personal information was leaked on a series of Instagram posts
Solana co-founder Raj Gokal’s personal information was leaked on a series of Instagram posts uploaded on U.S. hip-hop group Migos’ Instagram page in an apparent hack. On May 27, an Instagram account belonging to American rap trio, Migos, was reportedly compromised by hackers who gained access to Gokal’s personal information and used it to dox him and his wife. The now-deleted Instagram posts featured pictures of the Solana $SOL SOL-1.24%Solana Labs President holding his driver’s license and passport, both unredacted. Another post featured a woman, claimed by the hackers to be Gokal’s wife, holding her driver’s license. The seven pictures were shared to the 13 million followers on Migos’ Instagram account. One of the posts shared Gokal’s personal contact information, including his phone number. The poster then urged people to “spam” the Solana co-founder, effectively doxxing him. A caption written on the post that showed Gokal holding his driver’s license seemingly implied that he was initially blackmailed before his personal information was leaked on social media. Tagging Gokal’s Instagram account, the hacker wrote: “you should’ve paid the 40 BTC.” At current prices, 40 Bitcoin BTC-0.29%Bitcoin would be equal to around $4.3 million.
Blockchain.com appears to be betting on Africa’s crypto future
Blockchain.com appears to be betting on Africa’s crypto future, where regulations could transform a once-restrictive market. Crypto wallet and exchange platform Blockchain.com is reportedly looking to grow in Africa as some countries begin introducing regulations for digital assets, Bloomberg reports. According to Owenize Odia, Blockchain.com’s general manager for Africa operations, the company is focusing on Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa, with plans to open a physical office in Nigeria in Q2. Nigeria is Blockchain.com’s “fastest-growing market” in West Africa, Odia said, adding that the country “has taken meaningful steps toward creating a clear framework for crypto.” While most African nations still ban or tightly control crypto trading, a few are slowly changing their approach. Nigeria recently passed a new investment law that allows licensing for crypto exchanges. #blockchain #crypto $BTC
A trader made $5.6 million in three days by betting against James Wynn’s every move — a calculated counterplay or Wynn quietly hedging through a shadow wallet? According to Lookonchain, a trader identified by the wallet address 0x2258 has recently netted $5.6 million in just three days by taking the opposite side of James Wynn’s positions — shorting when Wynn went long, and longing when Wynn shorted. On May 24, 0x2258 began shorting both Bitcoin $BTC BTC-0.25%Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) just as Wynn opened a long position on BTC. The next day, when Wynn closed his BTC long, 0x2258 closed his short for a $1.36 million profit. Later on May 25, as Wynn flipped from long to short, opening a BTC short position, 0x2258 reversed his stance again and opened long positions in BTC and ETH. On May 26, when Wynn exited his short position, the counter-trader closed his long, netting an additional $2.54 million. That same day, Wynn re-entered a long position on BTC, prompting 0x2258 to short BTC and ETH again, accumulating an unrealized profit of $1.7 million at the time of reporting by Lookonchain. #WhaleJamesWynnWatch #crypto

How to invest with minimal capital and achieve good returns?
Investing in crypto with a small budget is possible if you focus on smart strategies, risk management, and high-potential opportunities. Here’s how to start: 1. Start with Low-Cap Gems Instead of buying Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH) with $100, research low-cap altcoins ($50M–$500M market cap).Look for:Strong use cases (DeFi, AI, RWA).Active development team & community.Upcoming catalysts (airdrops, exchange listings). 2. Use Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Invest fixed amounts weekly/monthly (e.g., $20 every Friday).Reduces risk of buying at peaks.Best for BTC, ETH, and stable altcoins. 3. Stake & Earn Passive Income Binance, KuCoin, and decentralized platforms offer staking rewards (5%–20% APY).Example: Stake BNB, SOL, or DOT while holding. 4. Leverage Free Crypto Opportunities Airdrops: Join early projects (e.g., LayerZero, zkSync).Testnets: Earn tokens by testing new blockchains.Play-to-Earn (P2E): Games like Pixels or Sweat Economy. 5. Trade Smart (Low Capital, High Discipline) Swing trade (hold 1–4 weeks) instead of day trading.Use stop-loss to protect small accounts.Focus on 3–5 coins max to avoid overexposure. 6. Avoid These Mistakes ❌ FOMO buying (wait for dips).❌ All-in on memecoins (only risk what you can lose).❌ Ignoring security (use 2FA, hardware wallets). 7. Best Coins for Small Investors (2025) Bitcoin $BTC – Safe long-term bet.Ethereum $ETH – Growth with ETH 2.0.Solana $SOL – High-speed, low fees. Final Tip: Reinvest Profits Take 50% of gains and reinvest in stronger assets.
With $50–$500, you can grow your portfolio by focusing on high-growth strategies while managing risks. Start small, stay consistent, and avoid greed!
To preserve capital in trading, focus on risk management strategies like setting stop-loss orders to limit potential losses, diversifying your portfolio to spread risk, and understanding leverage to avoid overexposure. Managing your emotions and developing a disciplined trading plan are also crucial. Key Risk Management Strategies: Stop-Loss Orders:These automatically close a trade at a predetermined price, limiting potential losses. Diversification:Spread your investments across different assets and markets to reduce the impact of any single trade's performance. Position Sizing:Determine the appropriate amount to invest in each trade based on your risk tolerance and account size. Leverage Management:Understand the impact of leverage on your trades, as it can amplify both profits and losses. Emotional Discipline:Avoid impulsive decisions and stick to your trading plan, even when facing losses or unexpected market movements. Risk-to-Reward Ratio:Ensure that the potential profit from a trade outweighs the risk, and aim for a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. Trading Plan:Develop a clear trading plan that outlines your strategies, risk tolerance, and objectives, and stick to it. Hedging:Use offsetting positions to protect against potential losses, particularly when dealing with volatile assets. Backtesting:Rigorously test your trading strategies before deploying them to real money, and regularly reassess and adjust them as market conditions change. The 2% Rule:A common principle in risk management suggests never risking more than 2% of your account balance on a single trade. Take Profit Orders:Set these to automatically close trades at a predetermined profit level to lock in gains. Avoid Margin Calls:A strong risk management strategy can help avoid margin calls, which can force you to liquidate positions at a loss. Review and Update:Regularly review and update your risk management plan as your trading experience and market conditions evolve. Risk Tolerance:Understand your own risk tolerance and set realistic goals accordingly.
Decide on limits for position sizes It's important to decide how much of your capital you're willing to risk on each trade and position size plays a key role in this decision. Some traders prefer to risk no more than 1-2% of their total capital per trade. By managing your position size and keeping your risk relatively low, you could limit potential losses while still giving yourself the opportunity to make profits when trades go well. Use stop-loss orders to limit losses A stop-loss order could help to protect you from bigger losses by automatically closing your position if the market drops to a level you've set. By choosing a stop-loss level that fits your risk tolerance, you can limit potential losses when the market moves against you. For extra protection, a guaranteed stop-loss order ensures your position is closed at the exact price you've chosen, even in fast or volatile market conditions, preventing slippage. Keep in mind, though, that guaranteed stops incur a small premium if triggered. Set price alerts to stay informed
Price alerts are a simple way to keep track of the market without having to watch it all the time. You can set alerts to notify you when an asset reaches a certain price, enabling you to act at the right moment – whether it's to lock in profits or limit potential losses. Set a clear risk-reward ratio The risk-reward ratio helps you weigh the potential profits against the potential losses. For example, a 1:2 ratio means you're willing to risk £1 to make £2. Setting this ratio in advance could be helpful in ensuring that the gains from successful trades will make up for your losses in the long run. Spread your risk by diversifying Diversification involves spreading your trades across different assets, markets or sectors. By allocating your capital to more than one option or opportunity, you can reduce the impact of a single loss on your overall portfolio, helping to protect your capital in the long run. #CryptocurrencyWealth #BeginnerTrader #Beginnersguide $BTC $ETH
