1. BITCOIN HOLDS NEAR $84,000 DESPITE RISING US YIELDS
Bitcoin briefly fell below $83,000 during US hours, then stabilized near $84,100–$84,500. TokenPost reported BTC at $84,372 (-0.13%), Coin360 at $84,125 (-0.38%), while Binance quoted $84,401. The US 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.18%, the highest since July 2007, while the 30-year yield hit 5.444%, the highest since 2004. Higher yields pressured risk assets, but spot BTC ETF inflows and about $12.26 million in short liquidations within one hour supported the rebound.

2. ETH AND SOLANA EDGE HIGHER AS MAJOR ALTCOINS TURN GREEN
ETH traded around $2,688–$2,692, up roughly 0.12–0.55% depending on the source. Solana rose about 1.83–2.28%, with TokenPost reporting +2.28% and Guavy +1.83%. Large-cap altcoins were mostly higher: XRP gained 1.78–3.07% to around $1.53–$1.55, BNB rose 1.51% to $776.69, Dogecoin added 3.25–3.91% to near $0.10, and Cardano climbed 3.86–4.68% to around $0.25. Total crypto market cap stood at $2.8788 trillion, with 24-hour volume near $99.98 billion and derivatives volume at $1.0922 trillion, down 6.66%.

Chainlink climbed as much as 7.48% to $13, an eight-month high, according to Coin360; Binance data via etnet showed LINK at $13.21 (+6.90%). Litecoin jumped 16.35% to $71.96, the strongest gainer among tracked coins. ONDO also reclaimed the $0.50 level on altcoin inflows. Meanwhile, Tron was nearly flat (-0.01% per TokenPost; -0.58% per Binance), showing divergence despite the market's upward tilt.

4. DERIBIT OPTIONS EXPIRY MAY BOOST VOLATILITY

Ahead of settlement, Bitcoin was reported trading near $85,500–$86,300, with max pain at $75,000 and a put-to-call open interest ratio of about 0.69–0.71, indicating a call-heavy, generally optimistic derivatives market. The large expiry could amplify short-term volatility around the $84,000–$86,000 range.
