**May 20 Crypto Update: Bitcoin’s Five-Day Slump & Bitfinex Whale Contrarian Signals** Bitcoin has logged five consecutive down trading days spanning May 15–19, marking the second-longest daily downtrend of the year. Amid broader market weakness, the leading cryptocurrency has pulled back from above $80,000 to roughly $76,000, gunning for its first bullish candlestick in six sessions. A key divergence here: leveraged traders on Bitfinex have steadily added to their long positions during this slump. TradingView data shows Bitfinex’s long leverage positions now sit at 80,636 BTC—up ~1.5% in recent days, hitting their highest level in two and a half years. The last time long positions hit this peak was in December 2023, when BTC traded near $43,000. Year-to-date, Bitfinex’s long leverage holdings have climbed ~10%, even as Bitcoin’s price has dropped 13% over the same window. This gap signals that, despite being 35% below last October’s all-time high of $126,000, large traders are s

WASHINGTON, May 20 (Reuters) – Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) has officially withdrawn two S-1 registration statements for a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) and a combined Bitcoin-Ethereum ETF from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), regulatory documents obtained by Decrypt show. The withdrawal was filed on May 19 Eastern Time. In the filings, TMTG cited an evaluation of the current market competitive landscape and adjustments to the company’s strategic priorities as the basis for the move, though the firm did not specify whether it will refile the applications in the future. TMTG originally submitted the two ETF proposals in March, with plans to launch the products under its Truth Social brand. If approved, the ETFs were set to be custodied by Custodia Bank, per the initial filings. James Seyffart, an ETF analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, expressed surprise at the decision in a social media post, noting the stated reasons lack sufficient clarity. He specul

May 20: Privacy computing firm Zama announced the acquisition of TokenOps, an enterprise platform specializing in token lifecycle management, with plans to apply its Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology to institutional token operations: ownership unlocks, airdrops, and cap table oversight. For context, TokenOps has processed over $20 billion in token distributions to date. The acquisition targets two critical flaws of blockchain’s inherent transparency: signal leakage and front-running. Zama cited Keyrock analysis showing roughly 90% of tokens under transparent unlocking schedules underperform the market average within 30 days, with an average 17% price drop in the 72 hours following large supply shocks from unlock events. Post-deal, token issuers will run end-to-end token lifecycle workflows—allocation, unlocking timelines, recipient identity management—fully encrypted on-chain using the ERC-7984 Confidential Token standard. Rand Hindi, Zama’s co-founder and CEO, noted tra
