Shiba Inu Price in Red as First Major Death Cross in 2025 Appears Dog-themed cryptocurrency Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been trading down in the last 24 hours; at the time of writing, SHIB was down 0.21% daily to $0.00001538. Weekly, Shiba Inu was recording higher losses, down nearly 7%. The price drop coincides with the appearance of a death cross on Shiba Inu's daily charts, which is the first major death cross in 2025. A death cross occurs when a shorter-term moving average, often the 50-day, dips below the longer-term 200-day moving average. Historically, this pattern has been viewed as a bearish sign, suggesting that downward momentum may persist. https://u.today/shiba-inu-price-in-red-as-first-major-death-cross-in-2025-appears

Ether traders eye growth as options market leans bullish Ether option markets are “leaning bullish,” with a “touch of caution” from large investors, as ETH faces significant downside volatility under $2,600, a Nansen research analyst told Cointelegraph. The structure of the Ether options market suggests traders are anticipating medium-term growth, as February’s options expiry events could play a decisive role in the price trajectory of the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency. The bullish positioning suggests that investors are cautiously optimistic about ETH appreciation in the medium term, according to Nicolai Sondergaard, research analyst at Nansen. https://cointelegraph.com/news/ether-options-market-bullish-traders-eye-february-expirations

How BLEM, SOL, TRX are positioning for growth BitLemons is making waves in the crypto gaming sector with its unique GambleFi protocol, directly challenging the $450 billion traditional casino market. This game-changing platform has already secured an impressive $1 million in private seed funding, demonstrating strong institutional confidence in its vision. What sets BitLemons apart is its advanced tokenomics model, allocating 30% of all Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) to create sustainable value for BLEM holders. The system splits this allocation evenly; 15% funds regular token buybacks and burns, while the remaining 15% rewards stakers, creating a powerful deflationary mechanism. https://crypto.news/how-blem-sol-trx-are-positioning-for-growth/

Binance Coin (BNB) Price Prediction for February 14 The market is staying in the green zone today, according to CoinStats. Binance Coin (BNB) is the exception to the rule, falling by 5.52%. On the hourly chart, the rate of BNB is on its way to the local support of $660. If the situation does not change by the end of the day, one can expect a level breakout, followed by a move to the $650 zone. On the bigger time frame, the picture is more bearish than bullish. The volume remains low, which means buyers are not ready to seize the initiative. In this case, a correction to the $625-$650 area is the more likely scenario within the next few days. https://u.today/binance-coin-bnb-price-prediction-for-february-14

XRP Price Prediction: Continued Network Growth to Push XRP Closer to Thrilling Phase of 2025 Crypto Bull Rally After a solid breakout from the multi-year symmetrical triangular pattern in early November, XRP price entered its first consolidation ahead of the much-anticipated price discovery phase. The Donald Trump administration has set the momentum right to provide clear crypto regulations. Already, Binance Holdings Ltd and the US SEC recently filed a joint motion to pause the ongoing case for 60 days. As a result, the ongoing Ripple case on XRP sales is likely to be dropped in the near future. Related article: XRP News Today: Lawyers Debate SEC’s Case Delays and Its Impact on Ripple, What’s Next for XRP Price? Earlier today, Fox Business reported that the CFTC and US SEC are planning to reopen discussions on how to effectively implement crypto regulations. https://www.coinspeaker.com/xrp-price-prediction-network-growth-xrp-thrilling-phase-2025-crypto-bull-rally/

Shiba Inu, Lightchain AI, and Stellar draw investor interest Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Stellar (XLM) have long been staples in the cryptocurrency market, attracting different types of investors. While SHIB has built a strong community through its meme-driven appeal, XLM has established itself as a reliable blockchain for cross-border payments. However, with the market constantly evolving, projects with new solutions are emerging. One such project is Lightchain AI (LCAI), which is rapidly gaining traction due to its unique integration of artificial intelligence and blockchain. Notably, Lightchain AI is currently priced at $0.006 in its presale, having already raised $15.3 million. https://crypto.news/shiba-inu-lightchain-ai-and-stellar-draw-investor-interest/

Is The Crypto Market Top Near? Here’s Why There’s ‘Some Runway Left’ After the recent crypto market corrections, some investor’s and market watchers’ bullish sentiment appears to have decreased, with many claiming the top is in. However, other analysts point out that several indicators don’t signal a cycle peak yet, suggesting that the bull still has some gas in its tank. The crypto market has recently suffered continuous corrections that have halted the momentum from the post-US election. During the November-December rally, the industry achieved many milestones, including Bitcoin’s breakout from the $100,000 barrier for the first time in history. The crypto market also surpassed its 2021 all-time high (ATH), reaching a market capitalization of $3.73 trillion on December 17, 2024. Nonetheless, its recent shakeout sent the total crypto market cap (TOTAL) to its lowest range in nearly three months. https://www.newsbtc.com/news/is-the-crypto-market-top-near-heres-why-theres-some-runway-left/

How Nigeria’s bid to make peace with crypto just hit a snag — and it’s not Binance Last year, Nigeria’s crypto market was in dire straits. The government outlawed unlicenced crypto providers. And Nigerian prosecutors threw two Binance executives into detention, and imprisoned and tried one, Tigran Gambaryan, until the Biden administration secured his release in October. The legal assault roiled the crypto market in Africa’s most populous nation. Many Nigerians quit using stablecoins, with volume shrinking 38%, to $23.6 billion, according to Chainalysis. But this week, a new stablecoin was released that has the government’s seal of approval and hopes are riding high that the crypto war of 2024 can end. https://www.dlnews.com/articles/regulation/how-nigeria-push-to-get-past-fight-with-binance-hit-snag/

Cardano (ADA) Price Prediction For February 5 Cardano (ADA) has been having a bit of a back-and-forth kind of day. Right now, it’s hanging around the $0.75 mark, which is a small bump up from where it was earlier. It’s been bouncing between $0.72 and $0.78 all day, so nothing too wild, but enough to keep things interesting if you’re watching closely. https://blockchainreporter.net/daily-prediction/cardano-ada-price-for-february-5/

SEC Cleaning House: Probes to Be Approved by Commissioners The alleged change, which would require SEC attorneys to obtain the approval of the commission as a whole, is part of the institution’s new directives aimed at increasing the efficiency of its probes and actions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is changing its modus operandi regarding how the agency manages and conducts formal probes. According to two sources quoted by Reuters, now attorneys have to have prior approval of the commissioners, a requirement not enforced before. https://news.bitcoin.com/sec-cleaning-house-probes-to-be-approved-by-commissioners/

Odin.Fun Wants to Replicate Pump.Fun for Bitcoin Runes The creators of Ordinals marketplace Bioniq have unveiled Odin.fun, a Runes marketplace and launchpad inspired by Solana sensation Pump.fun. Bioniq co-founder and CEO Bob Bodily revealed that Odin.fun, which will launch on Feb. 3, has two parts. First, it’s an automated market maker (AMM) where purchases and sales can be made in Bitcoin. Second, “Odin Fun is a Runes pump fun,” he said, promising the “speed of Solana with the experience of Bitcoin.” Essentially, it is a Layer 2 on top of the Bitcoin blockchain, he said. “Buy, sell, create, swap, add/remove liquidity. 20second finality.” There are no additional tokens required to use Odin.fun, and it connects directly to existing Bitcoin wallets. Odin.fun operates on a bonding curve, so tokens will not be etched as runes until they meet the bonding threshold of 1 BTC. https://thedefiant.io/news/nfts-and-web3/odin-fun-wants-to-replicate-pump-fun-for-bitcoin-runes

Bitcoin: Dormant wallets are waking up – Good news for BTC? Bitcoin’s [BTC] bull market is entering a critical juncture, with signs suggesting that a major turning point could be just around the corner. In recent months, we’ve seen a notable surge in activity, as once-dormant Bitcoin addresses come back to life — an event often seen during strong bullish trends. This reactivation of previously “lost” coins is fueling speculation that Bitcoin is gearing up for its next big move. Simultaneously, key indicators are highlighting a crucial support level at $97,190 — one that Bitcoin must maintain if this rally is to continue. https://ambcrypto.com/bitcoin-dormant-wallets-are-waking-up-good-news-for-btc/

Amidst notable gains by Bitcoin in January, Ethereum continues to struggle hitting consistent lower lows during this period. https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/ethereum-flashes-bullish-divergence-is-a-rally-on-the-horizon/
