Bitcoin could be heading for a major rally according to Real Vision founder and macro expert Raoul Pal. Speaking to his YouTube subscribers Pal said that the global money supply also known as Global M2 is strongly linked to the price of Bitcoin. Based on current trends Pal predicts that Bitcoin could jump by around 28% in the coming weeks.

The macro expert explained that Bitcoin’s movement is being driven by liquidity rather than global events or speculation. He pointed out that earlier signals correctly predicted a correction near $75,000 in April and now show a path to new all-time highs. Pal believes Bitcoin could reach over $140,000 by July.

He added that while Bitcoin usually follows the global money supply it will eventually break away and outperform it. As more investors join the market driven by fear of missing out prices could rise faster than expected before eventually slowing when fear returns.

Semler Scientific has made a bold move by acquiring 455 Bitcoin for $50 million adding to its growing crypto reserves. The purchase took place between May 13 and May 22 at an average price of $109,801 per coin according to an SEC filing. With this latest acquisition Semler now holds a total of 4,264 BTC valued at around $474.4 million based on current market prices.

The company funded the purchase through its ongoing at-the-market equity program which has raised nearly $114.8 million since April 2025. Semler Chairman Eric Semler highlighted the company’s strong Bitcoin yield of 25.8% year-to-date calling it part of a growing trend. The company provides detailed updates through a dedicated Bitcoin Dashboard offering full transparency on its crypto holdings.

This move reflects a rising wave of institutional adoption in 2025 with over 40 public companies embracing Bitcoin treasury strategies. Semler’s aggressive crypto approach positions it as a leader in this growing financial shift.

With the release of “A Sound Punt: The Case for Ireland’s Interest in Bitcoin” by Bitcoin Network Ireland (BNI), and a weekend that sees both the Bitcoin Ireland Conference and Aontú’s Ard Fheis, it’s clear momentum is building on the Emerald Isle.

In the last Mempool article, I went over the different kinds of relay policy filters, why they exist, and the incentives that ultimately decide how effective each class of filter is at preventing the confirmation of different classes of transactions. In this piece I’ll be looking at the dynamics of the relay network when some nodes on the network are running different relay policies compared to other nodes. 

All else being equal, when nodes on the network are running homogenous relay policies in their mempools, all transactions should propagate across the entire network given that they pay the minimum feerate necessary not to be evicted from a node’s mempool during times of large…
