As of mid-May 2026, the crypto market is experiencing volatility with Bitcoin (BTC) fluctuating around $80,000–$82,000 amid high-stakes US geopolitical tensions and pending regulatory updates, including the "Clarity Act". Key trends include institutional, whale-driven movements, with over $600 million pulled from spot ETFs in a single day and significant Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) activity. [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]
Market Summary & Price Action (May 13-14, 2026)

Bitcoin (\(BTC\)): Dipped below $80,000 following warnings regarding US-Taiwan-China tensions, with long-term "conviction" holders still seeing profits.
Ethereum (\(ETH\)): Faces potential sell-off pressure, with whales transferring $1.35 billion ETH to Binance, leading to price instability.
Solana (\(SOL\)): Experienced a 5% drop but continues to show strength with upcoming "[Alpenglow]" upgrades.
Altcoins: Meme coin UFO Solana saw a rise after rumors concerning Pentagon documents, while Stacks (STX) and OKB fell. [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]
Key Industry Updates

5 Worst Performing Cryptos Throughout 2024

2024 is a good year for crypto asset owners in their wallets. Many assets have increased many times over. However, some go up, some go down, either because of wrong developer policies, declining hype, and so on.
Here are the 5 worst performing crypto assets throughout 2024.

Age
The worst performing crypto asset of 2024 is Aevo (AEVO), a decentralized crypto derivatives trading protocol that offers perpetuals and options with an experience similar to using a centralized  exchange  .
Aevo has  dropped 88.2%  since its launch on March 6, 2024, at a price of US$2.8 or around Rp44 thousand. At the time of writing, the price was US$0.3557 or around Rp5 thousand.
Aevo experienced this drastic decline, one of the reasons being  the release of 827 million tokens on May 15  , which increased the circulating supply by 753%.

StarkNet
The second worst performing crypto asset throughout 2024 was StarkNet (STRK), a  layer-2  decentralized scaling solution for the Ethereum  blockchain  . StarkNet uses  ZK-Rollup  technology .
StarkNet has experienced a decline of  85.23%  since it was first launched on February 20, 2024 at a price of US$2.7 or around Rp42 thousand. When this article was written, the price reached US$0.4615 or around Rp7 thousand.
The drop has been going on since the first day of STRK's launch, with a 50% drop on the first day of trading.  According to CoinDesk  , the drop was due to criticism of the schedule against the team and investors behind StarkNet.
StarkNet’s “token generation” event was initially scheduled to take place in November 2022 and the token release was not scheduled until 2024, a move that crypto observers found suspicious and unusual.

Wormhole
Next is Wormhole (W) in third place with a decrease of  79.14%  , from a price of US$1.3912 or around Rp. 22 thousand to US$0.2807 or around Rp. 4 thousand when this article was written.
The bridging  protocol was just  launched on April 3, 2024  on the Solana-based decentralized exchange OpenBook. Some of the reasons for Wormhole's decline are because the airdrop event held last April was targeted by crypto scammers and even the founder was attacked by malicious links after the airdrop was carried out.
In addition, there was also  a forgery of Wormhole tokens  with the release of a token named “wormhole” immediately after the launch of the Wormhole airdrop.

Safe
In fourth place is the Safe (SAFE) token which suffered a decline of up to  70.12%  from a price of US$3.17 or around Rp. 51 thousand to US$0.9744 or around Rp. 15 thousand when this article was written.
The SAFE token itself had been locked for two years by the project's DAO, which was then  unlocked on April 23  , allowing users to transfer their SAFE tokens. The unlocking did not take long to have an impact on the token, dropping 42% in just a week since it was unlocked.

Bitcoin Ordinals
Finally, the fifth worst performing crypto asset this year is Bitcoin Ordinals (ORDI), which has fallen by  67.10%  from a price of US$78 or around Rp1.2 million on January 2, 2024, to US$26.27 or around Rp424 thousand at the time this article was written.
At the beginning of the year, ORDI experienced a decline when Bitcoin plunged below US$40 thousand or around Rp. 645 million, although it then  increased due to the release of Bioniq Ordinals on March 5  and has continued to decline again until now
