Read Time:1 Minute, 4 Second

BNB has surged more than 5% with a high trading volume following a 90% drop in Binance Chain Gas Fees. Is $700 BNB’s next target?

 

BNB coin has surged 5.80% with a 26.22%  increase in trading volume in the past 24 hours, at press time, per CoinMarketCap.  This follows a 90% slash in Binance Chain gas fees from 1 gwei to 0.1 gwei.  CZ’s approved proposal on reducing gas fees could catalyze the BNB price uptrend to $700 and the psychological $1000 mark.

BNB’s Open Interest has risen 6.27%, with the 24-hour long-to-short ratio at 1.05. As the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hits 71 (overbought zone), BNB could face a price pullback following a sharp bullish rally. However, the short-term, medium-term, and long-term moving averages flash “strong buy” at press time.

Analysts have predicted that the breakout above the $634-$644 key resistance zone could see the coin rally towards $700 in the next few days, while targeting $1000 in the long run. Investors signal renewed optimism following this development on the Binance chain. If the bullish momentum holds, BNB’s rally to $1000 could be due soon.

What is Bitcoin Halving and Why does it Matter?

1 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 5 Second

Bitcoin halving cuts miner rewards every four years. So, what is Bitcoin halving, and why does it matter in Bitcoin’s principles?

 

Bitcoin halving is a built-in event that occurs approximately every four years in Bitcoin’s blockchain network, where the rewards for mining Bitcoin are slashed by 50%. Traders observe this event to understand BTC’s supply, demand, and price insights. Bitcoin halving defines market dynamics and investor sentiment.

As a result, one ought to understand and mark this key event while planning their long-term BTC investment strategy. BTC halving happens on-chain and is embedded in Bitcoin’s code. This means no single entity can control or tamper with it due to Bitcoin’s decentralized nature.

 

Why does Bitcoin halving matter?

Bitcoin halving is more than a technical update on the blockchain. The most recent event occurred in April 2024, cutting miner rewards from 6.25 to 3.125 BTC per block. Each halving minimizes Bitcoin’s supply amid growing demand. Historically, post-halving events have seen major bull runs for BTC.

Bitcoin’s supply is capped at 21 million coins, and each halving boosts the countdown to the total supply, thus solidifying BTC’s scarcity principle. This is a market-moving event that investors anticipate as Bitcoin ascends to a “digital gold” status fueled by growing adoption.

Read Time:1 Minute, 3 Second

New Hampshire made history as the first U.S state to enact a strategic Bitcoin reserve bill into law.

 

In a historic moment, the U.S. state of New Hampshire has caught global attention following its completion of the strategic Bitcoin reserve legislation process.  After passing the committee stages, the state’s Bitcoin bill, HB302, was passed to Governor Kelly Ayotte for signing. Following her signature on the 6th of May,2025, the legislation is officially a law.

According to her official announcement on X (formerly Twitter):

 

New Hampshire is once again First in the Nation! Just signed a new law allowing our state to invest in cryptocurrency and precious metals.

 

This Law makes New Hampshire the first U.S. state to allow its treasury to invest up to 5% of its reserves in Bitcoin, the “digital gold,” and other precious metals. Arizona has been leading the strategic reserve race, but lags following Governor Hobbs’ veto.

This law comes as a bold step to appreciate and advance the role of digital assets in the evolving digital finance and global payments. While other states progress through their committee stages, New Hampshire goes down in history as a champion of digital assets and the financial revolution in the crypto space.

Read Time:57 Second

Blacrock has been accumulating Bitcoin at a high rate, signaling heightened institutional demand and adoption.

 

BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, with around $11.58 trillion in assets under management, has caught the market’s attention following its bold Bitcoin strategy. The institution’s rate of BTC acquisition has raised eyebrows as investors anticipate a bullish rally and potential market supply shock driven by demand.

According to on-chain data, Blacrock has acquired BTC worth $2.5 billion in just one week. In the past 7 days, there have been multiple transactions from Coinbase Prime to the IBIT ETF wallet, suggesting aggressive accumulation.

What does this mean for BTC?

As traditional investors seek exposure to Bitcoin through ETFs, institutional acquisition of BTC is projected to rise in the following months.  With Bitcoin exchange supply draining steadily, the market could see a supply shock triggering a BTC rally towards the $100k mark and beyond.

Additionally, this suggests growing mainstream crypto adoption. Bitcoin is joining traditional balance sheets while positioning itself as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainity.
