DUBAI, UAE, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, released a new weekly crypto derivatives analytics report in collaboration with Block Scholes, detailing the interplay between BTC and ETH's rapid ascend in the past week, with ETH in the lead gaining 40% in spot prices. Bybit's trading data recorded positive funding data across the board with positive futures curves and call-side volatility smiles at all tenors.
Key Highlights:
- ETH's Winning Streak: The spell of good news moved markets in the last few days, adding some $900M in ETH open interest in the rally which peaked between May 11 and 12. Crypto's second favorite poster child overtook BTC for the second week in a row, and derivatives indicators suggest further upside as investors put more calls than puts on the table, readying ETH for another surge.
- BTC Volatility: BTC's return to $100K since early February coincided with the broader bullish ambience, with its short-term volatility dropped to a low 38%. A 5% skew towards OTM calls suggests continued risk-on sentiment, despite put options dominating with over $200M in volume compared to $140M for calls.

ETH on the Rise: Bybit x Block Scholes Report Reveals Optimistic Market Signals
NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alibaba International announced today that its AI-powered creative platform, PicCopilot, has integrated with Google Ads. This strategic collaboration enables small and medium e-commerce operators to create and launch high-conversion Google display ads directly within the PicCopilot platform.
Unlike general creative tools, PicCopilot leverages Alibaba International's e-commerce ecosystem to train its AI on real-world scenarios, ensuring the solution is examined and validated through actual market experience.
Small and medium e-commerce operators and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands face mounting pressure to maintain consistent marketing presence across multiple digital channels while operating with limited resources. In the U.S. market, where approximately 40% of PicCopilot users are first-time entrepreneurs, the ability to leverage such professional insights is critical. Through this integration, businesses can now leverage a unified platform that simplifies the entire workflow. For instance, PicCopilot's "Viral Video Maker" can generate 8-10 professional video options in just 2-3 minutes from a single product image—a process that traditionally takes 2-3 days.
"Our goal is to evolve AI from a simple efficiency tool into a growth-driving engine for merchants," said Yang Guang, Vice President of Alibaba International and Lead of Alibaba Design. "By integrating PicCopilot with Google Ads, we are democratizing enterprise-level creative marketing tools, allowing even the smallest sellers to leverage market-validated approaches to drive their business forward."
PicCopilot provides unique, "one-click" AI applications specifically designed to drive e-commerce sales. This includes industry-first video solutions for social content, such as the Viral Video Maker and Fashion Reels—specialized tools for apparel and footwear that transform static images into engaging marketing assets. Additionally, the platform's AI Product Page Design Generator allows merchants to create high-quality, ready-to-use storefront visuals, making professional-grade marketing accessible to businesses of all sizes.
Through this Google Ads integration, PicCopilot advances its vision of serving as an intelligent marketing "middle-ware" that connects the entire marketing pipeline—from strategy and creativity to distribution and optimization. This advancement enables smaller merchants to compete effectively through intelligent technology, setting a new standard for AI-driven e-commerce growth.
