Gate Research: Between May 13 and May 26, 2025, BTC broke above 110,000 USDT to reach a new all-time high and maintained an upward trend, while ETH entered a consolidation phase.

The quantitative analysis applied a "Bollinger Band Reversal Strategy", which delivered an annualized return exceeding 66% on ETH under the optimal parameter set.
