18 May
US$76,717.16
2.20%
Bitcoin is declining around 2.2%, weighed down by a confluence of macro and geopolitical headwinds as rising oil prices — surging past $111/barrel amid stalled US-Iran peace talks and Strait of Hormuz tensions — are fueling inflation fears and pushing bond yields higher, effectively killing near-term Fed rate cut expectations. The selloff triggered over $700 million in crypto liquidations (predominantly longs), with Bitcoin briefly falling below $77K for the first time since May 1. Adding to pressure, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded ~$1 billion in net outflows last week, snapping a six-week inflow streak, while a classic 'sell the news' reaction followed the CLARITY Act's Senate Banking Committee passage. On a constructive note, Michael Saylor teased another Strategy Bitcoin purchase, and on-chain data from Binance Research shows ~60% of BTC supply untouched for over a year and exchange balances at a 6-year low.
17 May
US$76,920.03
1.36%
Bitcoin is trading lower, slipping below $77,000 as a confluence of macro and geopolitical headwinds weigh on risk assets. President Trump's warning that Iran's 'clock is ticking' rattled markets overnight, fueling a broader risk-off move that sent Dow futures down over 300 points and crypto into a broad selloff — over $580 million in liquidations were recorded in just four hours, predominantly wiping out long positions. The pressure compounds an already difficult week for BTC, which saw nearly $1.15 billion in spot ETF outflows, surging U.S. Treasury yields (2-year at 4.09%), and hot producer price data that pushed rate-cut expectations further out. Analysts are watching the $76,000 level as critical support, with a daily close below $75,000 potentially opening the door to $60,000 according to some technical forecasters.
16 May
US$77,999.96
1.32%
Bitcoin is trading lower, pressured by a confluence of macro headwinds after hotter-than-expected April PPI data (core PPI +1% vs. 0.3% expected; +5.2% YoY) stoked fears of prolonged Fed tightening under new Chair Kevin Warsh. Rising U.S. Treasury yields and heavy spot ETF outflows — nearly $1 billion over the past week, including $290M on May 15 alone with no ETF seeing net inflows — are weighing on sentiment, even as Thursday's landmark CLARITY Act advancement through the Senate Banking Committee (15-9 vote) sparked a brief rally to $82K that quickly faded in a classic sell-the-news reaction.
15 May
US$79,069.92
2.45%
Bitcoin has declined about 2.5% amid a confluence of macro headwinds that are unwinding the brief CLARITY Act-driven rally. Hot inflation data — with April PPI surging 6% year-over-year and core CPI at 2.8% — has reinforced fears of prolonged elevated rates under new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, who officially replaced Jerome Powell today. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a record $635M single-day outflow on May 13, with Glassnode noting institutions were "selling into strength" rather than responding to fear. While the Senate Banking Committee's 15-9 advancement of the CLARITY Act provided a brief tailwind, the macro ceiling near $82K is holding firm.
14 May
US$81,057.06
2.67%
Bitcoin has rallied above $81,000, recovering from an intraday dip below $80,000, as the landmark CLARITY Act cleared the U.S. Senate Banking Committee in a 15-9 vote — the most significant legislative advance for crypto regulation in U.S. history. The bill, which establishes a comprehensive framework classifying digital assets as securities or commodities under SEC/CFTC oversight, sparked a broad crypto market recovery after earlier selling pressure from a hotter-than-expected 6% year-over-year PPI reading and a record $635M in spot Bitcoin ETF outflows on May 13. Adding to the bullish backdrop, JPMorgan disclosed a 174% surge in its IBIT Bitcoin ETF holdings in Q1, and Charles Schwab began rolling out spot BTC trading to retail clients.
13 May
US$78,959.96
2.75%
Bitcoin has declined nearly 3%, falling below the key $80,000 psychological support level, as a confluence of macro and regulatory pressures weigh on sentiment. April CPI came in at 3.8% year-over-year — the hottest reading since 2023 — reinforcing fears of a higher-for-longer Fed rate environment, while the Senate Banking Committee's CLARITY Act markup (scheduled for May 14) has introduced regulatory uncertainty around DeFi and stablecoin rules. On a positive note, crypto-friendly Kevin Warsh was confirmed as the new Fed Chair, and Charles Schwab launched spot BTC and ETH trading for retail clients, signaling deepening institutional integration even as near-term price action remains pressured.
12 May
US$81,197.71
0.24%
Bitcoin is trading essentially flat near $81,200, holding the critical $80,000 support zone as markets digest hotter-than-expected April CPI data (3.8% YoY, highest since 2023), which dampened Fed rate-cut hopes and briefly pressured BTC to ~$80,550. Investor focus is squarely on the CLARITY Act, with the Senate Banking Committee's 309-page draft unveiled ahead of a May 14 markup that could reshape U.S. crypto regulation — though opposition from labor unions, major banking groups, and Democratic senators over ethics provisions keeps passage uncertain.
11 May
US$81,013.12
0.39%
Bitcoin is trading modestly higher near $81,000, holding a constructive tone as investors focus on a dense week of catalysts. The Senate Banking Committee is scheduled to hold a historic markup vote on the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act on May 14, which would establish the first comprehensive U.S. federal framework for crypto market structure — Polymarket odds now put passage in 2026 at ~75%. Institutional demand remains firm, with spot Bitcoin ETFs logging six consecutive weeks of net inflows totaling over $3.4B, and Strategy adding another 535 BTC ($43M) to its 818,869-coin treasury. Macro headwinds from upcoming CPI/PPI data and stalled U.S.-Iran peace talks are keeping gains in check, with QCP Capital flagging $84K as near-term resistance.
10 May
US$80,707.13
0.09%
Bitcoin is trading essentially flat near $80,700, consolidating above the key $78K–$80K support zone after recovering from a sharp geopolitical-driven selloff earlier in the week. Investor focus has shifted to the upcoming May 14 Senate Banking Committee vote on the CLARITY Act, which would establish a comprehensive SEC-CFTC regulatory framework for digital assets — a potential catalyst for broader institutional adoption. Meanwhile, Strategy's Q1 earnings flagged a possible Bitcoin sale despite holding ~3.9% of global BTC supply, adding uncertainty, while on-chain analysts caution that the rebound to $80K reflects a natural bounce rather than a confirmed bull market resumption.
9 May
US$80,776.76
0.50%
Bitcoin is edging modestly higher, reclaiming the $80,000 level after a volatile week driven by U.S.-Iran geopolitical tensions, profit-taking following a 37% rally from April lows, and significant ETF outflows. Investor focus is now firmly on the CLARITY Act's Senate Banking Committee markup scheduled for May 14, which could establish a landmark regulatory framework for digital assets, alongside SEC Chair Paul Atkins' push for tailored on-chain market rules. Institutional inflows are returning — Bitcoin fund holdings rose ~7% from February lows — while short liquidations dominate derivatives markets, signaling persistent bearish bets being squeezed out.
8 May
US$80,380.88
1.04%
Bitcoin is edging higher on Friday, recovering back above the $80,000 psychological level after a volatile week that saw prices peak near $82,800 before retreating on profit-taking and geopolitical uncertainty. The U.S.-Iran tensions around the Strait of Hormuz triggered a risk-off shift, while Bitcoin ETFs recorded $278M in net outflows on Thursday — snapping five consecutive days of inflows. Regulatory tailwinds are offsetting pressure, with the SEC outlining new on-chain market rules and the CLARITY Act gaining momentum toward a potential July 4 signing, with Polymarket traders pricing a 66% passage probability.
7 May
US$79,567.00
1.59%
Bitcoin has declined modestly, slipping below the $80,000 psychological support level after a strong 37% rally from early April lows. Profit-taking has intensified as Short-Term Holder SOPR moved above 1, while renewed geopolitical uncertainty from US–Iran negotiations — with Iranian official Mohsen Rezaei rejecting key Strait of Hormuz proposals — weighed on risk sentiment. Adding pressure, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) reversed its 'never sell' stance after reporting a $12.54B Q1 loss, with CEO Michael Saylor signaling the firm may sell portions of its 818,334 BTC to service $1.5B in annual liabilities. On the positive side, spot Bitcoin ETF inflows remain constructive with a four-day streak totaling hundreds of millions, and the CLARITY Act continues gaining legislative momentum, with Senator Moreno targeting a presidential signature by July 4.
6 May
US$80,830.87
0.93%
Bitcoin is trading modestly lower, pulling back from a recent peak near $82,800 as the cryptocurrency consolidates following a strong rally to three-month highs. The broader narrative remains constructive: easing US-Iran geopolitical tensions (Trump paused 'Project Freedom' naval operations signaling progress toward a deal), falling oil prices, and a multi-day streak of robust spot ETF inflows — including $532 million on May 6 led by BlackRock's IBIT — have underpinned the move above the key $80,000 psychological support. Investors are also watching the CLARITY Act, with Senator Bernie Moreno expecting a Senate markup this month and a potential presidential signature by July 4, while Strategy's Q1 loss report and hints at possible BTC sales add a note of caution.
5 May
US$81,588.81
0.90%
Bitcoin is trading modestly higher near $81,600, holding above the key $80,000 psychological level it reclaimed earlier this week for the first time since late January. The move is being driven by a convergence of bullish catalysts: bipartisan Senate progress on the CLARITY Act — with Senators Tillis and Alsobrooks finalizing a stablecoin rewards compromise that sent Polymarket odds of passage to ~70% — alongside $630M in single-session spot ETF inflows on May 1 and record Q1 institutional accumulation of 50,000+ BTC. Analysts are watching the $82,000–$83,000 resistance band, where the 200-day moving average sits, as the critical hurdle for confirming a sustained breakout.
4 May
US$80,868.03
0.79%
Bitcoin is trading modestly higher, edging back above the key $80,000 level for the first time since January 2026, as a confluence of institutional demand, regulatory optimism, and geopolitical easing supports the move. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded five consecutive weeks of net inflows—with May month-to-date flows already crossing $629 million—while whale wallets have absorbed roughly 270,000 BTC over the past 30 days, the largest such accumulation since 2013. On the regulatory front, Senate negotiators released compromise language on stablecoin rewards in the CLARITY Act, lifting Polymarket odds of passage to ~62% and spurring crypto-linked stocks like Coinbase (+6%) and Strategy (+3%) higher. Meanwhile, Trump's 'Project Freedom' military escort operation in the Strait of Hormuz eased oil-market anxiety, though residual geopolitical risk and a $1.35B long liquidation cluster just below $78,000 keep the technical picture cautiously constructive rather than decisively bullish.
3 May
US$80,286.92
2.68%
Bitcoin is trading notably higher, pushing toward the closely watched $80,000 resistance level, fueled by a confluence of bullish catalysts. A massive short squeeze — with over $427 million in short positions liquidated — has powered the move, compounded by strong ETF inflows exceeding $629 million on May 1, led by BlackRock and Fidelity. Meanwhile, regulatory sentiment is improving as the U.S. CLARITY Act advances in the Senate, with Polymarket odds of passage rising to 69%, while the SEC's new A-C-T regulatory framework signals a more collaborative stance toward the crypto industry.
2 May
US$78,192.52
0.35%
Bitcoin is trading modestly lower near $78,200, consolidating just below the key $80,000 resistance zone as a confluence of macro headwinds and positive regulatory catalysts keep sentiment mixed. The U.S. CLARITY Act moved meaningfully closer to passage after senators released final stablecoin yield language, pushing Polymarket odds to 55%, while a White House crypto adviser teased a 'big announcement' tied to Trump's Bitcoin reserve — yet the Fed's "higher-for-longer" stance, elevated Treasury yields near 4.4%, and ongoing U.S.-Iran tensions with oil above $110/bbl continue to cap upside. Institutional demand remains a floor, with Strategy holding over 818,000 BTC and spot Bitcoin ETFs recording daily inflows above $200M.
1 May
US$78,438.76
1.76%
Bitcoin is trading nearly 2% higher, approaching the closely-watched $78,500 level, as a short squeeze — after 46 consecutive days of negative funding rates — combined with strong institutional tailwinds are lifting prices. Strategy's latest $255 million BTC purchase (3,273 BTC) and continued spot ETF inflows of over $200 million per day are underpinning demand, while bullish regulatory signals including progress on the CLARITY Act and Gemini's new CFTC derivatives license add to optimism. However, gains remain capped below the key $79,000–$80,000 resistance zone as the Fed's hawkish "higher-for-longer" stance and ongoing US-Iran tensions — with oil above $110/barr
