Vitalik Buterin predicted the growth of popularity of crypto payments
Buterin emphasized that initially the main use case for cryptocurrency, namely bitcoin, was supposed to be used as a means of payment, which is cheaper than traditional payment methods. However, over time, transactions became too expensive. Buterin believes that solutions such as the Lightning Network on the Bitcoin network and the Optimism protocol on the Ethereum network will increase interest in using leading cryptocurrencies for payments.
Due to the increase in the speed of transactions (after the transition of Ethereum to the PoS protocol should reach 100 thousand operations per second - TPS), their cost may fall to the minimum values - to $0.02, and the idea of payments in cryptocurrency will again make sense.

According to a recent Substack post by Martin Shkreli, the person behind the mask of Satoshi Nakamoto could be Paul Le Roux, a former programmer and former criminal cartel boss. Shkreli wrote that the transaction signature of the very first transfer sent to late Bitcoin pioneer Hal Finney decrypts to: “This Transaction was made by Paul Leroux to Hal Finney on January 12, 2009 #bitcoin.”

Crypto Market Sell-Off Was Driven by Retail Investors, JPMorgan Says
JPMorgan, one of the leading banks on Wall Street, plans to keep its cautious stance on the cryptocurrency markets, due to a lack of positive catalysts and the decline in retail investor interest.
In April, the bank noticed sales of both crypto and equity assets by retail investors, leading to an outflow from Bitcoin ETFs.
The cryptocurrency market is facing several winds in the form of increased positions, high Bitcoin prices compared to gold and compared to estimated bitcoin production cost as well as limited venture capital funding. In April, Bitcoin saw a 16% drop, the most significant monthly drop since June 2022.

Bitcoin Below $60K Could Trigger 'Panic' Selling, Crypto Analyst Says
One trader said recent declines are likely related to miners' asset sell-offs and fears of tighter regulation of cryptocurrencies.
