We unpack the explosive market moves as Bitcoin hits a new all-time high of $110K and Solana reaches $293 as crypto welcomes President Trump. TRUMP Coin’s debut contributed to the market frenzy, while COIN50 posted an impressive 8.74% weekly gain, signaling strong momentum as new users flood into the crypto space.

We provide a financing overview, highlighting DeFi lending growth on Solana, funding rate fluctuations, and weekend liquidations.
