With Bitcoin hovering near $76,500, these self-proclaimed oracles seem to be onto something. Runefelt, the Swedish Nostradamus, called $60,000 the bottom in real time, while Wulschner, the German counterpart, sees a “strong accumulation zone.” Because, clearly, nothing says “I’m rich” like predicting a number and having it almost stick.
As of May 1st, I’m seeing Bittensor (TAO) trading around $263.19, which represents a nearly 5.7% increase over the last 24 hours, according to data from crypto.news.

Curve Finance now has a system for dealing with losses from its lending activities.

According to the chronicles of crypto.news, Solana (SOL) was trading at a modest $84.51 on the fateful day of May 1, a mere 1.7% uptick in the past 24 hours. Over the week, it has meandered within a narrow range of $79 to $92, a period of consolidation that follows a precipitous decline earlier in the year. One cannot help but marvel at the irony of its current plight, a far cry from the heady days of late 2025 when it soared above $170.
The users, poor souls, are left to navigate the labyrinth of smart contracts, a task as daunting as deciphering a doctor’s prescription. “Adapt to new solutions,” they are told, as if adapting were as simple as changing one’s socks. And yet, the show must go on, mustn’t it? Until May 31, 2026, the curtains remain open, but the audience is already slipping out the back door, their eyes fixed on Liquidswap and Pontem, the next acts in this endless drama.
Aphantom-eyed researcher Aaron Perris, sword of the endless feed, brandished the discovery on X and declared: “apple Left those files inside. Plain and simple.”
As an analyst following the situation, I can confirm that the Carrot team has officially announced they’re shutting down. In a recent thread on X, they stated this wasn’t the result they hoped for, but the damage caused by the Drift exploit was simply too severe for them to continue operating.
This is not merely a bureaucratic beat; it is the most unmistakable sign that the herculean stalemate over U.S. crypto regulation, which dragged in the postponement of the January 15, 2026 markup and left federal regulators tiptoeing around each other for months, is slipping into a phase where procedural momentum replaces endless deliberation.
This data shows a significant change in how stablecoins are used – people are now using them for daily purchases instead of just holding them in digital wallets. Programs that let you spend stablecoins directly with a card are becoming some of the fastest-growing businesses on blockchain networks.
