Crypto blockchain researcher Bank XRP highlighted comments from Raoul Pal about the future of crypto adoption among major financial institutions in the United States. In a recent tweet, Bank XRP stated that banks are preparing to move aggressively into digital assets once lawmakers provide clear rules through the proposed CLARITY Act. The post focused on Pal’s belief that financial institutions are essentially waiting for official approval before making large-scale commitments to crypto infrastructure. Bank XRP connected those remarks directly to XRP, arguing that the asset already has a strong position because it has been “battle-tested,” “SEC-cleared,” and held by institutions for years. Bank XRP also suggested that XRP already has the infrastructure needed for institutional use, adding that banks may prefer networks with a long operating history once regulations become more defined. BANKS ARE JUST WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT Raoul Pal: "Once the CLARITY ACT passes ALL the banks are going to come in and build out their CRYPTO RAILS fast and which token has been battle-tested, SEC-cleared, and institutionally held for years? the rails are already built… https://t.co/T1ptX0PBis pic.twitter.com/7KyZW4g1W2 — 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗸XRP (@BankXRP) May 18, 2026 Raoul Pal Says Wall Street’s Entry Into Crypto Is Happening In the video captioned in the tweet, Pal spoke about the change of attitude toward crypto since he first entered the industry in 2013. He explained that early participants in the market believed Wall Street would eventually enter the crypto sector, and he said that process is now taking place. Pal stated that sovereign wealth funds are already adding crypto exposure to their investment portfolios. He also pointed to growing support for digital assets from influential political and financial figures in the United States, including President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. According to Pal, many major financial institutions are currently developing systems connected to stablecoins and blockchain payment rails. However, he explained that uncertainty around regulation continues to slow adoption among banks and corporations. CLARITY Act Could Speed Up Institutional Adoption A key part of Pal’s comments focused on the proposed CLARITY Act. Supporters of the legislation believe it could clearly define how digital assets should be treated under U.S. law. Pal argued that banks, corporations, and asset managers need regulatory certainty before fully committing to blockchain technology. He said that once the legislation passes, banks will begin building crypto rails for a wide range of financial services. Pal added that institutions want clear answers about security assets and how compliance rules will apply to the industry. Pal also stressed the efficiency of blockchain-based systems. He argued that financial firms have strong incentives to adopt crypto infrastructure because transactions can move faster and operate more efficiently than many traditional financial systems. Community Members Share Their Views Several users on X also reacted to Bank XRP’s post. X user Clint Eastwood said regulatory clarity could encourage greater institutional participation. However, he noted that banks usually move slowly and still need to address compliance requirements, infrastructure development, and real-world integration before adoption grows significantly. Another commenter, Ayla, said the passage of the CLARITY Act could accelerate participation from banks and major institutions. She also argued that XRP could naturally become a preferred option due to its history of institutional involvement.

Bitcoin analysis shows what bulls need to do next to end this bearish 2026

Bitcoin stabilizes near $63,000, but reclaiming $64,000 is the real test Bitcoin is stabilizing near $63,100 after buyers defended the lower part of its recent range. That is constructive, but it is not yet a confirmed recovery. BTC must first overcome resistance near $63,175-$63,270, while reclaiming and holding $64,000-$64,095 remains the more important test. Key takeaways for Bitcoin traders and investors Current position: BTC is holding above the previous month’s lower value boundary near $62,380. Immediate resistance: Buyers need to clear $63,130-$63,175, followed by $63,247-$63,270. Main recovery test: A sustained reclaim of $64,000-$64,095 would carry much more weight than a temporary bounce near $63,000. Major support: The broader $62,380-$62,535 region remains the most important defended zone. Bullish confirmation: Repeated closes, consolidation or a successful retest above $64,095 would show that Bitcoin is beginning to establish higher accepted value. Data note: The latest daily, four-hour and one-hour candles were incomplete when this analysis was prepared. Exchange-specific Bitcoin prices may also differ slightly. I'm also closely monitoring the digital asset space after , putting immediate pressure on lower order-flow shelves as bulls fight to defend structural trendlines. Regulatory headwinds also resurfaced as the , injecting fresh institutional hesitation into active trading books. Meanwhile, broader risk sentiment showed divergence across asset classes as , underscoring rotational breadth away from mega-cap tech into small-cap momentum. Macro headwinds and geopolitical posturing remain front and center following headline chatter that , all while monetary policy uncertainty lingers after amidst baseline model variances. Why Bitcoin’s stabilization is constructive but incomplete Bitcoin recently fell to approximately $62,535, where the decline attracted meaningful buying. Price subsequently recovered toward $63,100, strengthening the case that buyers are willing to defend the lower part of the previous month’s trading range. What stands out to me, however, is how little upward progress followed that buying. Several periods showed positive buying pressure, but BTC remained concentrated around $63,050 and repeatedly struggled to extend beyond $63,150-$63,175. In simple terms, buyers have shown that they can slow the decline, but they have not yet shown that they can move Bitcoin into a clearly higher trading range. This is the difference between stabilization and recovery: Stabilization means sellers are no longer pushing price lower with the same ease. Recovery means buyers are lifting price, holding above resistance and shifting the market’s most active trading area higher. Bitcoin has shown the first condition. The second still needs confirmation. Why $62,380 and $64,095 matter The previous month’s value area provides a useful map of where most Bitcoin trading took place: Value Area Low near $62,380: The lower boundary of the previous month’s heavily traded range. Point of Control near $64,095: The price that attracted the most trading activity during the month. Value Area High near $65,050: The upper boundary of the previous month’s accepted range. BTC is currently about $720 above the monthly Value Area Low, but almost $1,000 below the monthly Point of Control. Holding above $62,380 tells us that demand inside the previous month’s range has not completely failed. Remaining below $64,095 tells us that buyers have not regained control of the broader value structure. This is also why $64,095 may be more important than $64,000 itself. The round number attracts attention, but $64,095 represents the previous month’s busiest price area. A brief move above $64,000 could still become another failed breakout. Holding above $64,095 would provide stronger evidence that the market is accepting higher prices again. As discussed in our previous analysis, Bitcoin’s created technical repair work for buyers. That repair is not complete simply because BTC has bounced from $62,535. Bitcoin support and resistance levels to watch What would strengthen the bullish Bitcoin scenario? Swing traders should have 3 key price levels: The Value Area Low (VAL), Point of Control (POC) and Value Area High (VAH) of the previous month. Together, these levels map the previous month’s main area of accepted trading: the VAL marks its lower boundary, the VAH its upper boundary, and the POC the price where the most volume traded. Traders watch them because holding inside the area suggests continued acceptance, while a sustained break outside it may signal that the market is searching for a new value zone. The first constructive step would be sustained trade above $63,175. Buyers would then need to clear and hold above $63,247-$63,270. That would improve the probability of a move toward $63,350 and, eventually, the much larger $64,000-$64,095 test. A more convincing recovery would include: Bitcoin reclaiming $64,000. Price moving above the monthly point of control near $64,095. A pullback successfully defending the reclaimed area. Trading activity beginning to concentrate above $64,095 rather than immediately slipping back below it. If that sequence develops, approximately $65,050 becomes the next major value-area objective. What this means: Acceptance is more than touching a level. It means price spends time above it, survives pullbacks and begins treating the higher area as support. What would weaken the stabilization attempt? Failure to hold $62,920-$62,800 would weaken the current short-term base and increase the probability of another test of $62,535. The more serious bearish development would be sustained trade below $62,380. That would place BTC outside the previous month’s accepted value area and suggest that the market may need to search for demand at lower prices. Traders should still distinguish between a brief move below $62,380 and genuine acceptance beneath it. Crypto markets can produce fast stop-runs through visible support before reversing. Repeated closes or continued trading below the level would carry more bearish significance than a momentary sweep. What Bitcoin traders may consider watching Different traders may use these levels in different ways, at their own discretion: Short-term breakout confirmation: Watch whether BTC can break above $63,175 and successfully retest it, with $63,247-$63,270 providing the next validation area. Support-zone reaction: If BTC returns to $62,380-$62,535, watch whether buyers defend it again or whether selling begins to hold below the zone. Broader recovery confirmation: Treat $64,000-$64,095 as the decisive recovery test instead of assuming that every bounce from $63,000 marks a durable bottom. Because Bitcoin trades continuously, weekend conditions can sometimes involve thinner liquidity and less reliable breakouts. Confirmation through time, repeated closes or a successful retest may therefore be more useful than reacting to the first price spike. What should Bitcoin traders watch next? Bitcoin has defended the lower part of the previous month’s value area, but the rebound still needs to prove itself. The immediate challenge is to move beyond $63,175 and $63,270. The much larger test remains $64,000-$64,095. A successful reclaim would indicate that Bitcoin is returning toward the center of the previous month’s accepted value rather than merely bouncing from support. Until that happens, Bitcoin may be stabilizing, but it is not yet showing a fully confirmed bullish recovery.
