<p style="margin:0px">Markets are back in a familiar stance: rates sticky, expectations reset, and conviction quietly fading into positioning. Bitcoin barely moved, but beneath the surface, shorts keep paying and pressure keeps building.</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px"><strong style="font-weight:bolder">Before We Begin:</strong> Follow us on Telegram to be notified whenever a new digest drops.</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px">[Follow MEXC on Telegram]{https://t.me/MEXC_OfficialAnnouncements}</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><h2>Inflation's Back, BTC Didn't RSVP</h2><p style="margin:0px">Inflation reminded everyone it still has a vote. US CPI climbed 0.6% MoM and 3.8% YoY—the highest since mid-2023—pushing core inflation to 2.8%, well above the Fed's target. Markets repriced fast: equities softened, yields rose, and "higher for longer" is back on the table. But the bigger gate check just moved. The Clarity Act cleared the Senate Banking Committee in a bipartisan 15–9 vote, sending the most comprehensive U.S. crypto market structure bills one step closer to a full Senate and House vote. If politics hold the line, BTC gains legal certainty, ETH rides ETF momentum, and XRP eyes its institutional unlock.</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><figure><img style="max-width:100%;height:auto" src="https://mexc-rainbown-activityimages.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/banner/F20260515135409917XkQVij08dOezxa.png" width="840" height="958" /></figure><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px">Bitcoin, meanwhile, is playing it cool. After tapping $81,500, BTC slipped back to ~$79,600 but quietly held a 3.3% weekly gain. The real signal isn't price; It's positioning. Futures funding has been negative for 67 straight days, the longest stretch in a decade. Shorts are paying to stay short, and if BTC clears the $83,200 resistance, that crowded positioning stops looking like a waiting room and starts looking like rocket fuel.</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px">On the structural side, tokenized real-world assets have graduated from buzzword to balance sheet. The RWA market hit $30B (up 431% since January 2025) signaling that the TradFi-to-crypto bridge isn't just conceptual anymore. It's becoming a functioning liquidity layer, and regulation is finally catching up. Traders are no longer just timing moves. They're pricing money, from guessing short-term price direction to valuing capital itself.</p><p style="margin:0px"><br /></p><h2>New & Noteworthy</h2><p style="margin:0px">Not all listings are created equal.
