Hedera (HBAR) has lost its $7 billion market cap as bearish momentum builds. Trading volume is down 25% in the last 24 hours to $203 million. Key technical indicators are weakening, pointing to growing pressure on the current trend.
The BBTrend has dropped below 10, the RSI is now under 50, and a potential death cross looms on the EMA lines. Unless buying pressure returns soon, HBAR could face deeper corrections in the near term.
Hedera BBTrend Is Still Positive, But Going Down
Hedera’s BBTrend has dropped to 5.84, falling sharply from 11.99 just two days ago. The BBTrend, or Bollinger Band Trend indicator, measures the strength of a trend based on how far the price deviates from its average range.
Readings above 10 typically signal a strong and active trend, while lower values suggest weakening momentum or consolidation.
With RSI now below the neutral 50 mark, it suggests that sellers are gaining more control. An RSI around 44.67 points to weakening demand and could mean that HBAR is entering a consolidation phase or facing mild downward pressure.
If the RSI continues to fall, it could lead to a deeper correction unless buyers step back in.
Will Hedera Fall Below $0.15?
Hedera’s EMA lines are signaling a potential death cross, a bearish formation that could lead to increased downside pressure. If this pattern is confirmed, Hedera price may first test two nearby support levels at $0.156 and $0.153.
These levels have recently acted as short-term cushions, and losing them could trigger a sharper drop.
A breakdown below both supports could open the way toward $0.124, especially if selling momentum accelerates. On the flip side, if HBAR can regain strength and push above the $0.168 resistance, it could shift sentiment back in favor of the bulls.
A breakout there may lead to further gains toward $0.178 and potentially $0.20 if the uptrend builds enough momentum.
China’s recent directive for its state-owned banks to decrease reliance on the US dollar has amplified a growing trend among countries seeking alternatives to the dominant reserve assets. In some instances, Bitcoin has emerged as a viable competitor.
BeInCrypto spoke with experts from VanEck, CoinGecko, Gate.io, HashKey Research, and Humanity Protocol to understand Bitcoin’s rise as an alternative to the US dollar and its potential for greater influence in global geopolitics.
The Push for De-Dollarization
Since the 2008 global financial crisis, China has gradually reduced its reliance on the US dollar. The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) has now instructed state-owned banks to reduce dollar purchases amid the heightened trade war with US President Donald Trump.
China is among many nations seeking to lessen its dependence on the dollar. Russia, like its southern neighbor, has received an increasing number of Western sanctions– especially following its invasion of Ukraine.
Furthermore, Rosneft, a major Russian commodities producer, has issued RMB-denominated bonds, indicating a shift towards RBM, the Chinese currency, and a move away from Western currencies due to sanctions.
This global shift away from predominant reserve currencies is not limited to countries affected by Western sanctions. Aiming to increase the Rupee’s international use, India has secured agreements for oil purchases in Indian Rupee (INR) and trade with Malaysia in INR.
The country has also pursued creating a local currency settlement system with nine other central banks.
As more nations consider alternatives to the US dollar’s dominance, Bitcoin has emerged as a functional monetary tool that can serve as an alternative reserve asset.
Why Nations Are Turning to Bitcoin for Trade Independence
Interest in using cryptocurrency for purposes beyond international trade has also grown. In a notable development, China and Russia have reportedly settled some energy transactions using Bitcoin and other digital assets.
“Sovereign adoption of Bitcoin is accelerating this year as demand grows for neutral payments rails that can circumvent USD sanctions,” Matthew Sigel, Head of Digital Assets Research at VanEck, told BeInCrypto.
Two weeks ago, France’s Minister of Digital Affairs proposed using the surplus production of EDF, the country’s state-owned energy giant, to mine Bitcoin.
Last week, Pakistan announced similar plans to allocate part of its surplus electricity to Bitcoin mining and AI data centers.
Meanwhile, on April 10, New Hampshire’s House passed HB302, a Bitcoin reserve bill, by a 192-179 vote, sending it to the Senate. This development makes New Hampshire the fourth state, after Arizona, Texas, and Oklahoma, to have such a bill pass a legislative chamber.
If HB302 is approved by the Senate and signed into law, the state treasurer could invest up to 10% of the general fund and other authorized funds in precious metals and specific digital assets like Bitcoin.
According to industry experts, this is only the beginning.
VanEck Predicts Bitcoin to Become a Future Reserve Asset
Sigel predicts Bitcoin will become a key medium of exchange by 2025 and, ultimately, one of the world’s reserve currencies.
His forecasts suggest Bitcoin could settle 10% of global international trade and 5% of global domestic trade. This scenario would lead to central banks holding 2.5% of their assets in BTC.
According to him, China’s recent de-dollarization will prompt other nations to follow suit and lessen their reliance on the US dollar.
“China’s de-dollarization efforts are already having second- and third-order effects that create opportunities for alternative assets like Bitcoin. When the world’s second-largest economy actively reduces its exposure to US Treasuries and promotes cross-border trade in yuan or through mechanisms like the mBridge project, it signals to other nations—especially those with strained ties to the West—that the dollar is no longer the only game in town,” Sigel said.
For Zhong Yang Chan, Head of Research at CoinGecko, these efforts could prove catastrophic for the United States’ dominance.
“Broader de-dollarization efforts by China, or other major economies, will threaten the status of the dollar’s global reserve currency status. This could have [a] profound impact on the US and its economy, as this would lead to nations reducing their holdings of US treasuries, which the US relies on to finance its national debt,” he told BeInCrypto.
However, the strength of the US dollar and other dominant currencies has already shown signs of weakening.
A General Wave of Currency Decline
Sigel’s research shows that the four strongest global currencies—the US dollar, Japanese yen, British pound, and European euro—have lost value over time, particularly in cross-border payments.
The decline of these currencies creates a void where Bitcoin can gain traction as a key alternative for international trade settlements.
“This shift isn’t purely about promoting the yuan. It’s also about minimizing vulnerability to US sanctions and the politicization of payment rails like SWIFT. That opens the door for neutral, non-sovereign assets—especially those that are digitally native, decentralized, and liquid,” Sigel added.
This lack of national allegiance also sets Bitcoin apart from traditional currencies.
Bitcoin’s Appeal: A Non-Sovereign Alternative
Unlike fiat money or central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), Bitcoin doesn’t respond to any one nation, which makes it appealing to some countries.
For Terence Kwok, CEO and Founder of Humanity Protocol, recent geopolitical tensions have heightened this belief.
For these same reasons, experts don’t expect Bitcoin to replace fiat currencies fully but rather provide a vital alternative for certain cases.
A Replacement or an Alternative?
While Bitcoin offers several advantages over traditional currencies, Gate.io’s Kevin Lee doesn’t foresee its eventual adoption causing a complete overhaul of the currency reserve system.
Recent data confirms this. The number of Bitcoin transactions has fallen significantly since the last quarter of 2024. Bitcoin registered over 610,684 transactions in November, but that number dropped to 376,369 in April, according to Glassnode data.
The number of Bitcoin active addresses paints a similar picture. In December, the network had nearly 891,623 addresses. Today, that number stands at 609,614.

This decline suggests reduced demand for its blockchain in terms of transactions, usage, and adoption, meaning fewer people are actively using it for transfers, business, or Bitcoin-based applications.
Meanwhile, the Bitcoin network must also ensure its infrastructure is efficient enough to meet global demand.
Can Bitcoin Scale for Global Use?
In 2018, Lightning Labs launched the Lightning Network to reduce the cost and time required for cryptocurrency transactions. Currently, the Bitcoin network can only handle around seven transactions per second, while Visa, for example, handles around 65,000.
“If expansion solutions (such as the Lightning Network) fail to become popular, Bitcoin’s ability to process only about 7 transactions per second will be difficult to support global demand. At the same time, as Bitcoin block rewards are gradually halved, the decline in miners’ income may threaten the long-term security of the network,” Guo, Director of HashKey Research explained.
While the confluence of geopolitical shifts and Bitcoin’s inherent characteristics undeniably create a space for its increased adoption as an alternative to the US dollar and even a potential reserve asset, significant hurdles remain.
Achieving mainstream Bitcoin adoption hinges on overcoming scalability, volatility, regulatory hurdles, stablecoin competition, and ensuring network security.
The unfolding panorama suggests Bitcoin will carve out an important role in the global financial system, though a complete overhaul of established norms seems unlikely in the immediate future.
The Solana community and crypto market are watching closely as the world’s first spot Solana ETFs prepare to launch in Canada tomorrow, April 16, 2025. With this key launch, the speculation has also grown about whether this milestone could push SOL’s price toward the $200 mark.
The Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) has approved multiple ETF issuers, including Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ, to list their products. This could potentially open Solana to a new class of institutional investors.
Comparing Past ETF Launches To Solana ETF
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas offers a measured perspective on expectations for the Solana ETFs. He noted that “Canada is readying spot Solana ETFs to launch this week after regulator gave green light to multiple issuers, including Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ. ETFs will include staking via TD.”

However, Balchunas cautions against expecting too dramatic a market reaction based on previous altcoin ETF launches. He points out that “the 2 Solana ETFs in US (which track futures so not a perfect ginnea pig) haven’t done much. Very little in aum. The 2x XRP already has more aum than both the Solana ETFs and it came out after.”
This is supported by Volatility Shares Solana ETF (SOLZ) statistics, which launched in March as the first financial derivative-based ETF tracking Solana. SOLZ has accumulated only approximately $5 million in net assets as of April 14. This reflects relatively weak investor interest in Solana ETF products to date.
The reception by Canadian investors may vary from U.S. futures-based products. However, experience has shown that investors must have realistic expectations towards short-term pricing effects.
Analyst SOL Price Forecasts Provide Divergent Outlook
Market analysts are offering varying estimates of SOL price prospects following the listing of the ETF. Some are predicting gains, while others are more cautious in their estimates, according to current market trends.
CoinGape has also published a detailed Solana prediction for April 2025. Analyst MANDO CT expressed optimism about the development, tweeting: “Bullish for the SOL community! ‘The world’s first spot Solana ETF is expected to launch on April 16th!’.
This positive sentiment was shared as SOL touched its “HIGHEST $SOL/ ETH WEEKLY CLOSE IN HISTORY” on April 14.
Analyst Momin suggests conditional upside. He noted: “Solana usually front-runs the market. If we see $SOL close above $120 on weekly, expecting it to visit $180 in [the] coming weeks!” However, Momin also cautions that “macro is uncertain due to random decisions.”
Solana usually front-runs the market
If we see $SOL close above $120 on weekly, expecting it to visit $180 in coming weeks!
Onchain activity seems back in action, expect some good plays & action for the next few weeks!
One of the more bullish perspectives comes from analyst BitBull, who draws parallels to Ethereum’s 2021 performance: “SOL 2025 = $ETH 2021. Just like Ethereum’s run in 2021, Solana is setting up for a massive move in 2025.” BitBull identifies an “Accumulation Zone: $120–$130” with a target of $300+, based on pattern congruity in chart behavior between SOL and ETH’s historical performance.
With all these points kept in mind, it is extremely unlikely that the Canada Solana ETF launch can propel the SOL price towards $200 in the short term. Assuming that the overall market is bullish and with continued fund inflows through the ETFs, Solana can witness a price surge in the short term.
OpenAI, the parent company of ChatGPT, is building a new social media platform to compete with Elon Musk’s X. Sources close to the firm disclosed that the platform will focus on sharing ChatGPT-generated images. This move could spark fresh competition in the social media space.
The OpenAI Social Media App
As reported by The Verge, OpenAI has begun testing an early version of a social app. The prototype is built around a feed that allows users to share images created using ChatGPT’s image generation tool.
Per the update, the platform is still under development. However, insiders revealed that it is already functional to some degree. The company’s CEO, Sam Altman, has been discreetly gathering feedback from people outside the company.
Known to take on competitors, the firm has introduced different products this year. As reported by CoinGape, in response to DeepSeek, the AI firm launched ChatGPT Gov, a move designed to drive security and efficiency. The company hopes to build on this momentum.
While it remains unclear whether this new social platform will be a part of the ChatGPT app or a completely separate product, the aim is clear: to give people a space to share visually striking content powered by OpenAI’s technology.
The platform’s design supports easy sharing of creative posts, focusing on making content stand out. There is no official release date for now, and OpenAI has yet to comment on the development.
However, this direction fits a growing trend among tech companies using social platforms to collect fresh data that improves their systems. By launching its app, OpenAI would gain direct access to content and user interactions, much like its competitors.
Can It Match The Elon Musk Everything App, X?
OpenAI’s new project will likely find itself going head-to-head with Elon Musk’s X, formerly known as Twitter. Musk’s platform has grown into a space for real-time discussions, news, and user opinions. It also plays a key role in feeding data to Musk’s AI assistant, Grok.
Earlier this year, Musk made headlines with a $97.4 billion offer to buy OpenAI. At the time, Sam Altman declined the offer with a light jab, saying he could buy X for less.
The rivalry between the two tech leaders is no secret, and this social media move could intensify it. OpenAI now faces the task of creating a platform that captures users’ interest without mirroring X’s established format.
OpenAI Sees Confidence Boost With Ghibli Trend
It is important to say that OpenAI’s recent breakthrough with the Ghibli trend may be fueling confidence in this new direction.
After the release, social media was flooded with anime-style images made using ChatGPT. The buzz grew stronger when Elon Musk shared a Ghibli-themed post; igniting takes of a possible $2 retest for Dogecoin.
Interestingly, the product’s rise in popularity pushed ChatGPT to become the most downloaded app last month. This level of attention suggests that OpenAI already has what it takes to drive interest in its new platform.
A recent security breach has led to a significant drop in the ZK price, as hackers managed to drain $5 million worth of tokens from a compromised admin account.
The attack, which targeted the ZKsync protocol, triggered a sharp decline in the value of the ZK token, which had been experiencing positive momentum since its launch in June 2024.
Details of the ZKsync Security Breach
On April 15, the ZKsync security team confirmed that an attacker had gained control of an admin account managing the airdrop contract. The hack involved the creation of roughly 111 million unclaimed ZK tokens, which were then embezzled. The attacker successfully utilized this vulnerability by invoking the sweepUnclaimed() function to create and transfer the unclaimed tokens.
The admin account exploited and controlled the airdrop contract, a counter that distributed ZK tokens to users.
The minting transaction added approximately 0.45% of the total ZK token supply to the circulating supply of the tokens. The lost tokens were pegged at about $5 million. The attack only affected the airdrop distribution smart contracts; other contracts within the ZKsync protocol were not impacted.
User Funds Remain Safe
The ZKsync team reassured users that no user funds were at risk during the attack. The protocol and the ZK token contract remained secure. In a post on X, the security team stated, “All user funds are safe and were never at risk,” adding that “necessary security measures” were being taken. They also emphasized that the incident was isolated and confined to the airdrop contract.
According to the team investigation, the compromised admin account’s address was identified, and the ZKsync team will work with organizations to recover the stolen funds.
They also encourage the attacker to contact them for negotiations regarding the return of the stolen tokens. “We are coordinating the recovery efforts with @_seal_org and exchanges,” the team mentioned.
ZK Price Decline Following the Breach
Following the crypto hack, ZK’s price dropped significantly, which is the second of the major crypto crashes witnessed this week. After the announcement, ZK’s price fell by around 20%, likely due to the hacker selling the stolen tokens on the market. By the time of the report, the price had recovered slightly but was still down about 12% from the intra-day high.
This price drop directly responds to the increased circulation of tokens due to the hack. The influx of additional tokens into the market raised concerns among investors, contributing to the decline.
However, the ZKsync team’s assurance that no further vulnerabilities exist has calmed some fears, although the price has not fully recovered.
Ongoing Investigation and Recovery Efforts
ZKsync has stated that the investigation into the incident is ongoing. According to Zksync inventor Alexzk, a more detailed update will be shared once the team has completed its findings.
In addition, the ZKsync team is actively working with exchanges to help recover the stolen funds. They have also contacted the attacker to facilitate the return of the stolen tokens, warning that legal consequences could follow if the situation is not resolved.
While the attack’s immediate impact has temporarily dropped the price of ZK tokens, the team remains confident in the overall security of the ZKsync protocol.
Ethereum price is witnessing different predictions about its next move, with some forecasting a “most hated rally” while others point to bearish signals. The multiple analyses come as ETH’s market share approaches all-time lows.
Analyst Says Ethereum Price Will Melt Faces
Analyst Crypto Caesar expresses a bullish outlook. In a recent tweet, he stated that Ethereum will melt faces soon. He also added that the most hated rally is coming.
$ETH – #Ethereum will melt faces soon. The most hated rally is coming.
One of the key factors that Caesar points to is “oversold bullish divergence” that “looks bottomish.” This optimistic view is shared by Merlijn The Trader, who claims that the Ethereum double top is completed. He also mentioned in his tweet that now comes the face-melting rally no one expects.
However, not all analysts share this positive sentiment. Gordon highlights Ethereum’s declining market share. He noted that it has neared all-time lows and mentioned that it points to a potential ETH price drop to $1,100.
Ethereum market share nears all-time lows as bearish chart signals potential $ETH price drop to $1,100 pic.twitter.com/NKr45vB4V5
Multiple technical analysts have identified different chart patterns for Ethereum. Analyst BOBO notes that ETH is currently forming a descending triangle pattern. This is a formation that traditionally has bearish implications but could resolve in either direction depending on market conditions.
BOBO explained that if the market aims to shake out weak hands, another dip could occur before any potential recovery. However, the analyst leans toward a scenario where ETH breaks directly above the $1,700 resistance level.
$ETH is currently in a descending triangle pattern . If the market wants to shake out weak hands, we could see another dip before a potential recovery.
However, I’m leaning toward a direct breakout above the $1,700 resistance level.
Taking a more specific approach, analyst Ted stated in a tweet that ETH is approaching a breakout point. Ted connected Ethereum’s price action to broader market movements. He noted that global markets are gaining strength, which could help ETH maintain support between $1,550 and $1,600. For a bullish outcome, Ted is watching for a breakout and close above $1,670, which could help in a rally toward $2,000.
Analyst Caesar used the term “will melt faces soon” to describe the potential upcoming ETH price movement. This is his analysis that the rally would catch many traders off guard and force those who had taken bearish positions to chase the market higher.
Such rallies can be particularly powerful as they force short-sellers to cover their positions (buy back ETH they had borrowed and sold). This also creates additional buying pressure.
The analysis comes at the backdrop of the US SEC’s decision to delay the Grayscale Ethereum Spot ETF Staking Proposal.
Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto has predicted that the Bitcoin price will hit $137,000 soon. The analyst highlighted a bullish pattern that showed the flagship crypto could hit this ambitious target.
Expert Predicts Bitcoin Price To Hit $137,000
In an X post, crypto expert Titan of Crypto predicted that the Bitcoin price could rally to $137,000. The analyst revealed that BTC had formed a bull pennant on the daily chart. He stated that the flagship crypto can reach a new all-time high (ATH) if this pattern plays out.
The accompanying chart showed that Bitcoin could rally to this $137,000 price level, which could happen between July and August. This provides an ultra bullish outlook for the flagship crypto, which continues to trade sideways.
In a more recent post, he stated that a Bitcoin bullish crossover was already happening. The expert revealed that the MACD just made a bullish cross on the 3-day chart, which suggests that a momentum shift may be underway.
The Bitcoin price had surged past the $86,000 mark following Bank of America’s prediction that there will be four Fed rate cuts this year. However, the flagship crypto sharply dropped below $85,000 following reports that the EU will likely move forward with its tariffs on US goods.
Titan of Crypto raised the possibility of BTC still rallying to $87,000. He remarked that a daily close above $85,700 would significantly increase the probability of a move to $87,000 right after.
BTC’s Bottom Almost In
In an X post, crypto analytics platform CryptoQuant suggested that the bottom might almost be in for the Bitcoin price. The platform alluded to the VIX has spiked this week, noting that this is usually when the best setups start to appear.
CryptoQuant noted that historically, elevated VIX levels often mark local bottoms in equities and crypto. However, the platform warned that can take some time to play out.
Interestingly, CryptoQuant’s CEO Ki Young Ju recently asserted that Bitcoin’s bull market is over. He explained that BTC is witnessing signifcant selling pressure at the moment, which is why large purchases like MicroStrategy’s is unable to send its price higher. Based on his theory, Ki Young Ju expects six to twelve months of bearish or sideways price action from Bitcoin.
The global AI market is projected to reach $243.7 billion in 2025, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 27.67% through 2030, while AI-related tokens are projected to reach a $60 billion valuation by the end of the year. This article will explore the top AI crypto projects that have the momentum to rise in both price and public interest throughout 2025.
ANTIX
Antix merges advanced AI with immersive environments to allow people to create hyper-realistic digital avatars. This technology transforms faces into volumetric 3D models and analyzes lip-sync and movement to create accurate facial and hand animations that closely mimic real human behavior. The innovative direction Antix is taking has been well received by brands such as EA Sports, HBO, and Warner Bros, who recognize the possibilities it opens.
Antix also opens its wide window of opportunities to regular people. Through the platform, social media users, content creators, and NFT and metaverse enthusiasts can create enhanced forms of digital content in just a few hours, reducing costs by 90% compared to traditional multi-thousand-dollar productions. They can also rent or sell created characters and assets on the marketplace. Each avatar is embedded with an NFT passport that verifies the authenticity and intellectual property of their digital identity. This validates Antix’s goal of building a digital world that empowers users with ownership, autonomy, creative, and earning opportunities.
The ANTIX token will be used in six major areas: subscriptions, governance, staking, marketplace, asset tuning, and NFT auction and promos. It has a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens, with 25.8% allocated to early distribution, 24.4% to ecosystem growth, and 15.8% to community rewards just to name a few segments. ANTIX is currently priced at $0.09, 38% below TGE, giving early holders a discounted entry, early access, and a say in shaping the platform.
Grok
GROK aligns strongly with the Grok AI, a chatbot built by Elon Musk to leverage real-time data and rival ChatGPT. The conversational chatbot is said to respond to controversial questions, which are usually rejected by other AI systems.
Grok-1, the language model that powers Grok, was trained using vast text data collected from different internet sources, including Wikipedia and scientific data. However, what distinguishes Grok is its access to X posts. Since X has become the powerhouse of real-time information, Grok can also be said to have “real-time knowledge” too.
As a meme token, GROK has no direct affiliation with Grok AI but was created to establish a community of Grok AI enthusiasts who love making memes and saving the world at the same time. Right now, GROK’s total supply is capped at 6.9 billion tokens, with 50% allocated to its initial liquidity pool, 20% reserved for community rewards, 15% burned to enhance scarcity, and 15% held for marketing and development.
ai16z
Led by an AI agent known as Marc AIndreessen, ai16z leverages artificial intelligence and collective intelligence to invest in technology-focused projects and crypto assets. It brands itself as the first AI-led venture capital DAO out to redefine venture capitalism in this era.
ai16z’s AI agent was developed using ElizaOS, which has been used to build complex AI agents that perform a myriad of functions – from social media personas to interactive gaming characters. This is why Marc AIndreessen is capable of making and executing investment decisions by analyzing on-chain data and transactions, confirming orders, and evaluating project proposals presented by members of the DAO.
The AI16Z token is built on the Solana blockchain and enables community members to participate in democratic governance, propose projects for Marc AIndreessen’s consideration, and influence investment decisions. The token’s total supply is fixed at 1.1 billion, with no additional minting permitted without DAO approval.
Revox
Revox exemplifies the convergence of AI and blockchain, creating a modular AI network designed to empower decentralized application development and user engagement in the Web3 ecosystem. Originally launched as ReadON— a “ReadFi” project that paid users in tokens for exploring Web3 content—it pivoted and rebranded to Revox in April 2024 to harness AI-blockchain synergy.
The platform’s tech core splits into three pillars: on-chain AI, Web3 AI components, and customizable frameworks. On-chain AI handles 70% of dApp processing directly on the blockchain, then the Web3 AI components slash integration time by 40%, letting developers link AI and blockchain in under 48 hours. The customizable framework supports 85% of complex use cases based on beta tester data, making it a developer favorite.
REX, the native token, drives the system with a 3 billion total supply and $11 million market capitalization. Analysts forecast a $20 million fully diluted valuation of the REX token by Q3 2025 if their user count hits 6 million.
AgentLayer
AgentLayer is a decentralized platform for creating, deploying, and managing autonomous AI agents. It serves as a comprehensive ecosystem where developers can build independent AI agents capable of collaborating and executing complex, multi-step tasks on a secure, blockchain-based network.
AgentLayer also enables the minting, deployment, and trading of AI assets on-chain. This enhances coordination among AI agents via the AgentLink protocol, ensuring seamless collaboration. Importantly, AgentLayer retains human oversight through a multi-signature wallet system, allowing intervention to address ethical concerns or reliability issues.
At the core of AgentLayer’s ecosystem is AGENT, which powers a dynamic AI-driven economy on the blockchain and employs a deflationary mechanism. The token has a total supply of 1 billion and serves multiple functions: transaction fees for platform usage, node incentives for network operators, governance rights for community decision-making, agent purchases and transactions, and user incentives like staking and liquidity mining rewards.
Summary
As AI-related crypto projects gain momentum, their market valuation is set to skyrocket, making them a space to watch in 2025. Whether you’re a trader, developer, or just curious about the next big thing, keeping an eye on projects like Antix and the others is certainly a smart move to make.

With centralized exchanges reclaiming relevance in 2025, ecosystem tokens like WhiteBIT Token (WBT) are drawing increased attention from traders and investors alike. As the native utility token of the WhiteBIT exchange—one of the largest and fastest-growing platforms in Europe—WBT has shown impressive growth, driven by strong fundamentals and a steadily expanding user base. WBT is also currently ranking at #22 on CoinDesk in terms of Market Cap
So, can WBT continue its upward momentum? Let’s take a closer look at the current price trends, market dynamics, and where analysts think this altcoin could be heading in the near future and beyond.
Current Market Performance
As of April 15, 2025, WBT is trading at $27.89, reflecting a minor 24-hour gain of 0.18%. The token holds a market capitalization of $2.41 billion and saw over $26.8 million in 24-hour trading volume. Though slightly down from its March ATH of $31.18, WBT has maintained a steady base and is showing signs of a potential rebound.
Key Stats:
ATH: $31.18 (March 2025)
ATL: $2.98 (Sept 2022)
Circulating Supply: 86.6M WBT
Max Supply: 400M WBT
WBT’s strong market cap and consistent liquidity hint at healthy investor confidence, even during consolidative phases.
Technical Analysis: What the Charts Say
From a technical standpoint, WBT is currently navigating a critical zone. The Williams %R indicator places it in oversold territory, hinting at an imminent bounce, while the RSI at 36.80 shows the market isn’t overbought or oversold, indicating neutrality.
Moving Averages:
SMA 10: $28.55 (Sell)
SMA 50: $27.96 (Buy)
SMA 200: $21.63 (Strong Buy)
Long-term trends remain bullish, particularly with the 200-day SMA sitting well below current prices—often seen as a sign of institutional interest and broader support.
Past Performance & Growth Potential
Over the past 12 months, WBT has been on a tear, logging a 245% annual return, with 150% gains over 6 months, and a modest 13% increase in the last quarter. Even with periods of sideways trading, the asset has outperformed most CEX-native tokens.
Moreover, its 12-month volatility rating of 36.57% points to increasing market maturity, which is attractive for longer-term investors seeking stability alongside returns.
WBT Price Prediction 2025–2030
Looking ahead, analysts remain cautiously optimistic about WBT’s growth trajectory. Assuming broader market stability and continued exchange innovation, the token could retest its ATH and explore new highs in the years to come.
Forecast Highlights:

Based on max supply unlocking and utility demand
As staking participation increases and token circulation remains strategically controlled, WBT could be well-positioned for long-term appreciation.
What Makes WBT Unique?
WBT isn’t just a speculative play—it’s deeply integrated into the WhiteBIT ecosystem. Holding WBT unlocks several on-platform benefits:
Reduced Trading Fees
Referral Boosts
Staking Rewards
Exclusive Platform Features
Additionally, only 400 million tokens will ever exist, and with 200 million locked in the treasury, the circulating supply is tightly managed—a factor that could create upward pressure on price as demand grows.
Should You Keep an Eye on WBT?
Absolutely. While it’s not without risks, WBT has shown strong fundamentals, consistent performance, and long-term upside potential. For users already within the WhiteBIT ecosystem—or for those bullish on the exchange model—WBT offers more than price speculation. It’s a gateway to added utility and long-term participation.
As the crypto market prepares for its next bull leg, tokens with real-world use cases and strong communities could lead the charge. WBT may very well be one of them.
