The market capitalization of the software sector has decreased by 26% over six months, reaching $1.3 trillion. Meanwhile, amid the AI rally, certain infrastructure players have surged: Bloom Energy's shares have gained over 240% in half a year, while Quanta Services and MasTec have seen increases of more than 300% since May 2023. The AI stock boom in the United States has continued since May 2023, when a strong report from Nvidia marked a turning point for the sector. During this period, the American semiconductor index rose by 423.9%, compared to 85.6% for the broader US market.

On May 25, the price of the leading cryptocurrency rose above $77,000. Over 24 hours the asset gained 0.5%, holding above the 50-day moving average at $76,940. Hourly chart of BTC/USDT on Binance. Source: TradingView. The crypto market’s advance came amid a commodities sell-off: WTI crude futures fell more than 5% to $91 a barrel. That lifted Asian equity indices: Japan’s Nikkei 225 added nearly 3%, and India’s Nifty 50 more than 1%. The positive tone followed news of progress in talks between the US and Iran. The sides are close to a deal that would fully restore shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed the agreement could be signed on May 25. Altcoins posted modest gains: XRP and Solana rose 0.6%, and Ethereum 0.4%. Unlike bitcoin, however, these assets still trade below their 50-day moving averages. Analysts remain cautious owing to outflows from spot bitcoin ETF — more than $2bn has left over the past two weeks. BRN noted that for the rally to continue, the market needs a slowdown in fund selling and steady liquidity in stablecoins. Bitcoin demand hits a low Visible demand for digital gold fell to its lowest level since the start of the year, according to an analyst using the pseudonym Darkfost. Bitcoin Demand has Fallen to Its Most Bearish Level of the Year“Even if this situation appears relatively bearish in the short term, these types of environments have historically also created interesting opportunities for long-term investors” – By @Darkfost_Coc pic.twitter.com/q5pesCl70H— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) May 25, 2026 The gauge fell to -147,000 BTC, a level last seen in December 2023. Visible demand is calculated as the difference between the issuance of new coins and supply that has remained inactive for more than a year. The metric shows whether the pace of accumulation is sufficient to absorb new bitcoins on the network. The expert said demand continues to shrink. He stressed that without a revival in the spot market, it will be difficult for the leading cryptocurrency to sustain gains on futures alone. “Derivatives amplify price moves, but a sustainable bull trend requires real demand for the asset. Derivatives do not create a stable foundation,” Darkfost noted. He added that periods of sharp demand drops and pessimism have historically created opportunities for long-term investors. Market bottom Joao Wedson, founder of the Alphractal platform, noted differing readings of investment efficiency (Sharpe ratio) for the two largest cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and Ethereum’s Sharpe Ratios are behaving differently.But both are showing the current market sentiment very clearly.While Bitcoin’s annualized Sharpe Ratio is negative, indicating lower return efficiency relative to risk in the short term, Ethereum’s is sitting right… pic.twitter.com/oulOsDmiut— Joao Wedson (@joao_wedson) May 22, 2026 Bitcoin’s annualised Sharpe ratio has turned negative. This indicates that returns do not justify the risks in the short term. Ethereum’s reading is neutral—around zero. According to the expert, the current values point to strong selling pressure and a lack of risk premium. Historically, however, a prolonged period with the ratio below zero has signalled the formation of a market bottom. Wedson stressed that the current setup does not guarantee an immediate price reversal. Even so, the market is already in a zone of extreme pessimism and high stress. He advised monitoring risk behaviour daily, as important signals often appear in metrics before they do on the price chart. Meanwhile, an analyst known as maartunn recorded heavy selling on Coinbase. According to him, the exchange faced its strongest selling pressure since February. 🚨 Coinbase is seeing its STRONGEST SELLING PRESSURE since February. pic.twitter.com/AQbZ4FVmGF— Maartunn (@JA_Maartun) May 22, 2026 Bitcoin reversal signal On-chain analyst MorenoDV recorded a drop in bitcoin’s fund flow ratio on Binance. The reading fell to 0.010–0.012. Bitcoin's Fund Flow Ratio Returns to the Zone That's Marked Every Major Turn“Bitcoin is approaching a decision zone: either demand remains weak, and the compression reflects apathy, or sell-side exhaustion becomes the foundation for the next recovery phase.” – By @MorenoDV_ pic.twitter.com/mox08h9etV— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) May 22, 2026 This indicator measures the ratio of the leading cryptocurrency’s volume on the exchange to the total number of transfers on the bitcoin network. It shows what share of market activity comes from exchange operations. Since 2018 the metric has returned to this range five times. Historically, such periods have preceded major trend changes. A low reading means investors are using exchanges less for trading. That reduces selling pressure and often points to the formation of a price floor. Analysts observed a similar setup in early 2019 and in 2020 before the market’s strong advance. In MorenoDV’s view, the current backdrop signals a phase of uncertainty. Either buyer interest remains absent, or seller exhaustion becomes the base for a new rally. Ethereum’s rise Trader Michaël van de Poppe said current Ethereum prices are suitable for accumulating long-term positions. In his view, the asset remains a crucial infrastructure layer for the entire on-chain ecosystem despite lagging the market in recent years. This is the area to accumulate #Ethereum.It's been lagging behind for years, but it's the infrastructure layer that is required for almost everything within the on-chain ecosystem.The past months, the price of Ethereum has gone down primarily due to macroeconomic reasons.… pic.twitter.com/o3yUKvycPP— Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) May 25, 2026 He linked the recent decline in the price of the second-largest cryptocurrency to macroeconomic factors. He noted an inverse correlation between the decentralised-finance sector and government bond yields. When the latter rise, investor interest in DeFi wanes. That weighs on Ethereum, the network’s base asset. Van de Poppe, however, expects this trend to change. From a technical perspective, the price is approaching a strong support level on higher timeframes. He earlier predicted a correction after the price was rejected at 0.0325 BTC. He now views the current price range as a favourable entry point. On May 23, the leading cryptocurrency fell below $75,000. The decline comes as traditional markets test their highs.

The attack involved more than 34 malicious packages and 384 associated versions. The perpetrators repeatedly released new variations across different ecosystems. The malware targets developers of cryptocurrencies, DeFi, AI, and security systems. It steals wallet data, cloud service accounts, browser extensions, GitHub tokens, as well as SSH and API keys. The attack includes popular cryptocurrency wallets such as Coinbase, Binance, Solana, Sui, Aptos, and MetaMask, as well as the Brave web browser. Technical Details The software embeds hidden instructions to "capture AI programming assistants" like Claude and Cursor. "The goal is to trick LLM assistants into running a 'security scan' or a similar workflow that leads to the discovery and theft of secret information," Socket reported. TrapDoor specifically targets popular developer resources like npm, PyPI, and Crates. Some npm packages installed a common module that searched for developers' secret data. Attempts to establish persistence in the system through scheduler tasks, services, and autostart mechanisms were recorded. In Rust packages, a search for local key stores was detected, followed by data transmission via GitHub Gists. In Python packages, code was loaded from an external domain and executed via Node.js, allowing behavior changes without publishing a new version. Socket recommends considering environments with such packages installed as potentially compromised, changing keys and tokens, and checking the system for persistence mechanisms. Simply removing the software component is insufficient. "The names of the malicious modules are crafted to appear as developer helpers, project setup tools, model routing utilities, prompt engineering packages, solutions for Solidity, or assistants for building Sui and Move," Socket experts explained. GitHub was used to distribute the malicious packages. The attack was carried out using AI. The service itself was hacked on May 20, with hackers gaining access to 3,800 internal repositories. In May, Anthropic published its first report on Project Glasswing — a vulnerability search program using the Claude Mythos model.

Italian company Alps Blockchain, in collaboration with local firm Qurubiqa, has initiated a bitcoin mining project at an unused gas-fired thermal power plant in Bolivia's Cochabamba department. The plant has a capacity of 127 MW. Currently, the facility consumes about 27 MW, providing a hashrate of 1.23 EH/s. By the end of 2026, the partners aim to increase consumption to 45 MW, eventually reaching full capacity utilization of the power plant's infrastructure. The project operates on a behind-the-meter model: equipment is located near the power station and consumes energy without feeding it into the grid. Transactions are denominated in US dollars. This financial model was chosen due to Bolivia's prolonged currency crisis and liquidity shortages. Previously, the country's government allowed the state oil and gas giant YPFB to use cryptocurrencies for paying energy imports. The volume of virtual asset transactions in the first half of 2025 increased by more than 530% year-on-year—from $46.5 million to $294 million. This surge in activity was recorded after the official ban on cryptocurrency use was lifted in June 2024. Alps Blockchain includes the Cochabamba site in its list of active projects alongside those in Oman, the USA, Ecuador, and Italy. The company's total managed capacity is 242 MW. Back in November 2025, Bolivia's Minister of Economy José Gabriel Espinoza announced that the country would integrate cryptocurrencies and stablecoins into the national financial system to modernize it.

Anthropic has released the initial report on Project Glasswing, a vulnerability detection program using the Claude Mythos model. In a month, approximately 50 partners identified over 10,000 high and critical security issues. The company stated that the bottleneck was not the speed of detection but the verification and release of patches. The neural network scanned more than 1,000 open-source projects and discovered 23,019 vulnerabilities of all levels. Of these, 6,202 were initially classified by the system as "high" or "critical." Upon further review, 90.6% of the findings were confirmed, including 62.4% as requiring urgent intervention. Open-source software vulnerability monitoring dashboard. It displays issues of all severity levels, not just those rated as "high" or "critical" by the system. Source: Anthropic. The company disclosed 530 significant bugs to developers, with another 827 set for publication. Seventy-five have been fixed, and recommendations have been issued for 65. On average, closing a serious gap takes about two weeks. Among the public cases is a vulnerability in the wolfSSL library (CVE-2026-5194). According to the company, the model was able to construct an attack to forge certificates. Mozilla reported fixing 271 bugs in Firefox 150 after testing Mythos. Cloudflare discovered around 2,000 gaps, including 400 with "high" and "critical" status. Anthropic stated that it does not plan a public release of the model until stronger protective mechanisms are in place and intends to expand Project Glasswing, including collaboration with the US government and allies. Back in April, the firm decided against releasing Mythos to the public due to high security risks. The neural network is used by the US National Security Agency, among others.

Cryptocurrency payments are emerging as the settlement layer for AI agents, as the infrastructure of payment cards is ill-suited for microtransactions, according to a report by Keyrock. From May 2025 to April 2026, AI agents conducted over 176 million on-chain transactions amounting to more than $73 million. Nearly all settlements were made in USDC. The primary demand is for the payment of data, computing power, API, and content without human involvement. An example provided is a trading agent that automatically settles small amounts for market data and cloud infrastructure. Keyrock identified four architectures for agent payments: x402 by Coinbase; Machine Payments Protocol by Stripe and Tempo; Agent Payments Protocol by Google; Visa's card infrastructure for AI commerce. The company believes these solutions form a new payment stack. Coinbase and Stripe already cover five out of its six layers. Major players have directed over $8 billion towards deals and the development of agent transaction infrastructure. The segment received an additional boost following the launch of AWS Bedrock AgentCore Payments in preview mode. Coinbase and Stripe were the first partners of the service. According to Gartner's forecast, by 2028 AI agents could mediate purchases worth $15 trillion. McKinsey estimates the retail agent commerce market to be $3–5 trillion by 2030. Earlier in May, Solana Foundation, in collaboration with Google Cloud, launched a payment system for AI agents — Pay.sh.

According to him, the foundation will focus on long-term sustainability rather than spreading resources thin. Priorities include censorship resistance, open source, privacy, and security.Buterin emphasized that this is his personal vision for the EF's direction, not an official statement from the entire board.
