In May, the cryptocurrency market overall stabilized and rebounded. A shift in U.S. regulatory policies occurred as the SEC approved the Ethereum spot ETF, causing excitement in the market. The heat of the 2024 U.S. presidential election is rising, with Trump expressing support for cryptocurrency donations and Biden's campaign team hiring a meme manager, indicating a clear trend of the politicization of cryptocurrencies. Funds continue to flow into U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs, with the total scale exceeding $50 billion. The market maintains expectations for a rate cut by the Federal Reserve, anticipating a potential bull market.
Notcoin, with a strong user base and support from the TON platform, sparked a wave of speculation in May, with trading volume only trailing BTC and ETH. The Rune sector performed impressively, with the new Runes token minting dominating the Bitcoin network ecosystem, and the overall market capitalization surpassing the $1 billion mark.
