Trump himself also expressed his support for cryptocurrencies, saying that the United States will stop its hostility towards cryptocurrencies and embrace cryptocurrencies. This statement will further boost market confidence and attract more investors to enter the cryptocurrency field. Trump's attitude is of great significance to the development of the cryptocurrency market and will provide strong support for the widespread adoption and acceptance of digital assets.

FTX Estate will hold the third batch of locked SOL auctions on May 9, with a total of about 41 million tokens. This means that a large amount of SOL will be unlocked in the market and is expected to have a certain impact on the price. Considering that the auction amount has not yet been announced, market participants need to pay close attention to the results of this auction.

As these locked SOLs are unlocked, the increase in market supply may cause price fluctuations. Investors should remain vigilant, pay attention to market dynamics, and do a good job of risk management. In addition, the unlocked tokens will be issued staking rewards according to the vesting schedule, which will have an impact on market supply and demand.

Wells Fargo's analysis believes that the Fed will not cut interest rates quickly, which will continue to support the strength of the US dollar.

In addition, next week's CPI inflation data will be the focus of market attention. Although there is no risk of recession in the economy as a whole, the upside of USD/JPY is still optimistic in the short term.

The strengthening of the US dollar will have an impact on global financial markets, including the cryptocurrency market. Investors should pay close attention to the impact of the US dollar trend on cryptocurrencies and adjust their investment strategies in a timely manner according to market dynamics. At the same time, pay close attention to the release of CPI inflation data to obtain more market signals and reasonably seize market opportunities.

BTC: It closed with a small negative line yesterday, and there were upper shadows above for three consecutive days, indicating that the selling pressure above it is far from stopping. The selling pressure at the daily level shows that the short side has signs of weakening. Can it give the long side a chance to counterattack? At this stage, the trend observation is still in a downward channel, and it is currently fluctuating in a wide range. The trend line focuses on 63900, which is the short-term watershed of strength and weakness. The recent trend is particularly tiring and relatively sluggish. Once some weak-willed people leave the market, the real bull market may usher in a main upward wave.

ETH: Linked to Bitcoin trend.

Regarding Shanzhai: Market sentiment has recently shown obvious anxiety and panic. Except for a few Shanzhai that are short-lived, other Shanzhai are in a sluggish trend, unable to rebound, and players' confidence is shaken. More and more voices predict that the market is about to enter a bear market. This view has gradually become mainstream, exacerbating the panic of players. With the increase of these negative voices, the market seems to have entered a hopeless cycle, and player sentiment continues to decline. Everything will look to the big pie. Only when the big pie stabilizes can Shanzhai dare to raise its head. Wait patiently, don't panic, this is a bull market!
