Bitget has announced the launch of Delta-Neutral Mode in its Unified Account. When an account meets predefined delta-neutral conditions, this feature applies a differentiated Auto-Deleveraging (ADL) ranking mechanism to eligible hedged positions, thereby reducing the likelihood of forced liquidation for properly hedged strategies during extreme market conditions. Delta-Neutral Mode enables users to combine spot, cross-margin leveraged trading, and cross-margin perpetual contracts within the Unified Account framework. The system simultaneously assesses directional exposure at both the account and asset levels. This feature supports funding rate arbitrage, basis trading, multi-market hedging strategies, and quantitative neutral strategies.

Odaily released the latest analysis chart indicating that Ethereum's recent price movements are increasingly dominated by ETF fund flows. Over the past year, the 30-day moving average of daily net inflows for ETH ETFs has been highly synchronized with ETH's price performance, showing a marked increase in Ethereum's sensitivity to institutional fund flows.BIT points out that one of Ethereum's current core narratives is its net staking yield of approximately 2.5%. However, against the backdrop of accelerating inflation again and the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield rising above 4.6%, Ethereum's staking yield advantage is weakening compared to risk-free assets like U.S. Treasuries.Furthermore, ETF outflows from Ethereum have resumed since May. BIT believes that if this trend continues, Ethereum is likely to maintain a consolidation and range-bound trajectory.
According to CoinDesk, Simone Maini, CEO of blockchain analytics firm Elliptic, stated that the biggest emerging risk to crypto security is not larger-scale hacking attacks, but rather AI-driven financial activity operating at a speed and scale that human compliance teams cannot keep up with. As AI lowers the barriers to hacking, scams, and fraud, security firms like Elliptic are responding by deploying AI agents to analyze on-chain data in real time—sparking an automated arms race between adversaries and defenders. Maini noted that current compliance systems remain heavily reliant on manual review, and the global pool of compliance analysts specializing in digital assets is simply insufficient to meet future demand. Elliptic has raised $120 million in funding—including from Nasdaq and Deutsche Bank—to build an “agent-based compliance system” that leverages AI to automate transaction monitoring and investigation workflows, thereby reducing the cost per alert and per investigation.
According to chart analysis released by independent analyst Markus Thielen on May 18, the 30-day moving average of daily net inflows into ETH ETFs over the past year has been highly synchronized with Ethereum’s price movement, making institutional fund flows a core driver of ETH’s price. However, as U.S. 10-year Treasury yields rise above 4.6% and inflation accelerates again, Ethereum’s ~2.5% net staking yield is losing appeal relative to risk-free assets. Since May, ETH ETFs have seen renewed net outflows; if this trend persists, Ethereum’s price is highly likely to remain in a range-bound consolidation pattern.
According to on-chain analyst Ai Aunt (@ai_9684xtpa), the swing-trading whale address 0x54d…e6029 purchased 5,001 ETH (approximately $10.6 million) via Cowswap within the past two hours, at an average price of $2,119.29. This address previously accumulated positions at the March 30 low and later took profits at higher levels; its cumulative profit from this swing trade exceeds $1.085 million.

According to Cointelegraph, cryptocurrency analysts are divided on whether Bitcoin will reenact its historical “Sell in May” pattern in 2026. In the two midterm election years—2018 and 2022—Bitcoin experienced sharp declines in May, falling approximately 30% and 70%, respectively. Analyst Merlijn Enkelaar warned that this historical pattern could repeat, with Bitcoin potentially dropping to $33,000. Joao Wedson, CEO of Alphractal, also noted that if Bitcoin remains persistently below $78,000, the likelihood of a new capitulation phase increases. However, Jeff Ko, Chief Analyst at CoinEx, argued that past crashes stemmed from specific shocks—including the Mt. Gox incident, China’s ICO regulations, the Federal Reserve’s monetary tightening, and the collapses of Terra and FTX—not from calendar-based seasonality. He added that the launch of spot ETFs, corporate treasury allocations, and progress on the CLARITY Act have significantly broadened the institutional buyer base, making a 70–80% deep correction unlikely this cycle. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe highlighted $76,000 as the current critical support level; failure to hold it would likely trigger further downside pressure.
Bitcoin has fallen below the $77,000 mark, hitting a low of approximately $76,720. Analysts attribute the market decline primarily to multiple macroeconomic pressures, including the renewed escalation of tensions between the US and Iran, rising inflation concerns, and increased risk aversion across risk assets. Former US President Donald Trump issued a strong warning to Iran on social media, intensifying geopolitical uncertainty.Meanwhile, rising oil prices have further elevated inflation expectations, with Brent crude climbing to around $111 and WTI rising above $107. This has sparked concerns that the Federal Reserve may maintain higher interest rates for a longer period.The current selling pressure is also compounded by factors such as rising US Treasury yields, a strengthening US dollar, and ETF outflows. Data shows that Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of approximately $1 billion in the week ending May 17, ending six consecutive weeks of net inflows.In terms of market sentiment, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index has fallen back to 27, re-entering the "fear zone." Analysts believe that short-term trends will remain highly dependent on macroeconomic data and policy expectations. However, some institutions view the current correction as a "healthy digestion" period, suggesting the long-term structure remains unchanged. (The Block)
