$BTC fighting for life 💪

France is Europe. And Europe is the temple of regulation. In this monetary control tower, the Hexagon does not want to play the lone wolf. No question of embracing bitcoin before the 27? Yet, sometimes, it winks at the most daring. Latest twist? A legal clarification on Lombard credit backed by cryptos. Not a revolution. But a step, even if disguised, is still a step. The crypto Lombard credit was not born yesterday. It was already discussed in hushed banking circles. This loan, guaranteed by a crypto wallet, offers a promise: liquidity without liquidation. You lock your cryptos. You receive euros. In case of default, the collateral goes to the scrapyard. But where France is finally moving is on the legal framework. The DDADUE 5 law, in force since April 30, allows “the establishment of a pledge by signed declaration of the owner of the cryptos“. One more formality. And one less ambiguity. This change fits the MiCA logic, the great European crypto market charter. “The crypto Lombard credit is a great tool for structured HODLers“, comments Arnaud Touati . But beware: perhaps we structure, but we do not democratize yet. Dan Arroche tempers: No revolution, just a legal clarification. And still, this is only on paper. The ground remains minefielded. French banks remain skeptical. The risk is too volatile. Solvency ratios too fragile. In short, real use remains marginal. A regulatory advance does not always rhyme with practical progress. Because in detail, the French tax system is a true labyrinth. And in this labyrinth, crypto Lombard credit might well fall into a trap. Dan Arroche warns: The question is whether placing cryptos as collateral = transfer of ownership = taxable event?. In other words, using your bitcoins as a pledge could activate… taxation. And there, no one is joking anymore. Two cases must be distinguished: In other words, a tax lawyer becomes mandatory. To avoid innovation turning into an administrative disaster. Here are the key data to remember : A psychological factor is added to this legal equation: fear of banks. Their cautiousness slows adoption. “Obtaining crypto Lombard credit on acceptable terms is almost impossible“, concludes Arroche. We pretend to legalize, but no one is playing along. For whom is this new credit? For the average saver? No. For private banking clients, maybe. For large crypto portfolios, surely. This loan remains a wealth optimization tool, not a gateway to regulated DeFi. In fact, very few players are ready. Few institutions accept this type of pledge. The crypto market is still deemed too unstable. Yet, some see an opportunity here. This credit can become an alternative to asset sales, maintaining exposure to the market. So it appeals to those who want to “hodl while buying a house“. But provided they are well advised, and well capitalized. And while some move forward, others denounce. On X, a user mocks: Historically all war loans were scams. Luxembourg life insurance, crypto in self-custody, the threat is serious. Could crypto Lombard credit be a Trojan horse to repatriate cryptos on centralized platforms? MiCA aims to reassure. But for now, it intrigues more than it convinces. As long as the banking infrastructure does not follow, the promise remains dead letter. France’s slowness on cryptos no longer surprises anyone. Even Michael Saylor, on his American pedestal, singles out this inertia. And invites the country’s players to adopt bitcoin more , rather than regulate it the old way. For now, the Hexagon regulates. It moves forward, but in small steps. Too small? Time will tell.

#CryptoAlert The altcoin ignition phase has begun — but most are still asleep. • $BTC steady = perfect backdrop • $ETH reclaiming momentum • $PYTH, $TNSR, $W, $ACE = stealth accumulation spotted • Memes like $DOG, $1000CHEEMS = showing life again This is the quiet before

Cryptocurrency markets are charging into the week with renewed bullish momentum, fueled by surging institutional interest, growing ETF-driven demand—particularly around Bitcoin—and a wave of favorable trading clarity is driving renewed investor confidence. Bitcoin ( BTC ) climbed to a peak of $104,900 on Saturday evening—just about 4% below its all-time high—following President Donald Trump’s announcement of progress in U.S.-China trade talks during a meeting in Switzerland. “A very good meeting today with China, in Switzerland,” Trump posted on Truth Social, his social media platform. “Many things discussed, much agreed to. A total reset negotiated in a friendly, but constructive, manner.” Bitcoin rallied on the heels of the news. By early Sunday morning, the top cryptocurrency by volume hovered around $103,985. And yet, altcoins managed to grab the spotlight as well. At last check, Ethereum marked one of its strongest daily performances in recent weeks, while meme coins roared back to life. See below. This altcoin rally coincides with a decrease in Bitcoin’s market dominance to 63.89%, per TradingView . Analysts interpret this as a sign of capital rotation into altcoins, suggesting the onset of an “altcoin season.” The ETH/BTC ratio has rebounded from its lowest levels since 2020, further supporting this trend. Meanwhile, top U.S. and Chinese economic officials are expected to meet in Geneva for a second round of high-stakes trade talks to ease tensions from Trump’s escalating trade war. The conflict has already led to steep tariffs—145% on Chinese goods and 125% on U.S. exports—disrupting global supply chains and prompting companies to seek alternatives. According to the New York Times, economists warn the ongoing dispute could slow global growth, raise inflation, and push the U.S. toward a recession.
