That is one of the quiet admissions buried in Stellar&#8217;s newly released Quantum Preparedness Plan, a phased roadmap to migrate the entire network to quantum-safe cryptography by the end of 2027.
The Stellar Development Foundation said it will seek community input on how to handle accounts that have gone inactive — and whether recovery mechanisms are even possible for them.
A Threat That Starts With Math
The urgency behind the plan traces back to Shor&#8217;s algorithm, a mathematical process that sufficiently advanced quantum computers could use to crack elliptic curve cryptography — the same signing method Stellar and most other blockchains rely on today.
Scientists at INRIA have already reduced the number of logical qubits needed to break 256-bit elliptic curves, while the US National Institute of Standards and Technology has revised its risk window to 2029 or earlier. Google is also targeting post-quantum readiness by that same year.
Quantum computers will eventually break the cryptography behind nearly every blockchain. This threat will extend far beyond blockchain to every major industry.
When, not if.
On most chains, going quantum-safe means moving every asset to a brand-new account.
On Stellar, you…
— Build on Stellar (@BuildOnStellar) June 9, 2026
Stellar identified two core risks. The first involves validator signatures, where a breach could destabilize network consensus. The second — and more difficult — is account takeover, where a quantum machine could derive a private key directly from a public one.
With thousands of dormant accounts on the network, addressing that second threat at scale is a problem without an easy answer.
What Sets Stellar Apart
Most blockchains tie an address directly to a public key, which means going quantum-safe typically requires moving assets to an entirely new account.
Stellar works differently. Its account addresses are separate from the signing keys attached to them. Users can add or swap signers through an existing operation called set_options without touching their address, balance, or transaction history.
According to the foundation, that structural design gives the network a smoother path than many of its peers.
The rollout is structured in three stages. Starting in 2026, post-quantum signature verification using NIST-standard algorithms ML-DSA-44 and ML-DSA-65 will be added to Soroban smart contracts, allowing enterprise wallets to begin migrating.
In 2027, a Core Advancement Proposal will bring quantum-safe signer types to classic accounts natively, letting all existing users add them alongside current keys.
The third stage — deprecation of the old Ed25519 standard — has no fixed date and will depend on how quantum computing develops and how ready the broader ecosystem is.
One Gap Remains Open
Not everything is covered. Reports indicate that zero-knowledge proof systems running on the network use pairing-based curves that are also vulnerable to quantum attack, and the foundation acknowledged that this area still requires further research. Separate collaboration with ZK protocol teams is planned to address it.

The protocol is built around a specific use case that existing payment infrastructure handles poorly: small, automated, machine-to-machine transactions. When an AI agent needs to access data piecemeal from a website, or pay another service incrementally for a task it is performing on a user&#8217;s behalf, traditional card rails — built for human-initiated, merchant-facing transactions — are poorly suited for the job. Agent Pay for AI is designed to fill that gap, per Fortune&#8217;s reporting.
The decision to log permissions onto a public blockchain rather than a private database is a deliberate architectural choice. Multiple parties that want to verify whether an agent is acting within the boundaries a human has authorized can access that information directly on-chain, without relying on a single centralized authority to confirm it, per Fortune. Mastercard selected Polygon for the initial deployment.
The Partners And The Crypto Competition
Three companies are working with Mastercard to develop the protocol: fintech platform Adyen, crypto exchange Coinbase, and web infrastructure giant Cloudflare, per Fortune&#8217;s reporting. The combination of a payment processor, a crypto-native exchange, and the company that handles a significant share of the internet&#8217;s traffic signals that Mastercard is building Agent Pay for AI as interoperable infrastructure rather than a proprietary walled garden.
The competitive landscape is already crowded. Visa and Stripe have each built tools anticipating a world where AI bots buy groceries, manage bank accounts, and pay for subscriptions. Coinbase launched the x402 protocol for AI payments, Stripe collaborated with Tempo to develop the Machine Payments Protocol, and Google released its own standard in September 2025, per Fortune.
Jorn Lambert, Mastercard&#8217;s Chief Product Officer, was measured about near-term commercial expectations in his conversation with Fortune. He does not expect Agent Pay for AI to be a significant revenue driver in the next twelve months. Over five years, however, he described it as a meaningful new addressable market. Lambert separately predicted that AI chatbots will eventually sit between a meaningful share of e-commerce transactions — framing the protocol not as a speculative bet but as infrastructure being built ahead of an inevitable shift in how commerce flows.

This development marks a pivotal moment for the nascent sector&#8217;s convergence with artificial intelligence. Mastercard choosing a public blockchain to anchor the permissions layer of its AI payment infrastructure — one week after opening its global settlement rails to six regulated stablecoins across eight blockchain networks — confirms that the world&#8217;s second-largest card network is systematically rebuilding its core architecture around crypto rails rather than alongside them.

The claims add another layer to an already contentious debate over Cardano’s early allocation history, governance structure, and voucher redemption process.
Large Cardano Flows To IOG-Linked Pool Pledges
Alexander, who previously became a central figure in the Cardano ADA voucher controversy, said on X that IOG’s on-chain footprint extended beyond its original Genesis UTxO and included several stake pools operated over the years. According to him, those pools required owners and pledged ADA, creating additional paths for tracing funds through Cardano’s UTxO model.
“However, IOG had a larger onchain footprint than just their Genesis UTxO, they operated a number of stake pools over the years,” Alexander wrote. “Each pool requires an owner and pledge ADA to be put up.”
The latest allegation is framed around large ADA transactions that critics claim were linked to Hoskinson and occurred during the 2021 rally. Alexander said his updated tracing work shows that both a 925 million ADA transaction and nine 20 million ADA payments had a closer common ancestor than IOG’s original genesis ADA. In his telling, that reduces the number of intermediary hops between IOG and the transactions from roughly 40 to between one and seven transactions.
“Turns out both the 925m AND the x9 20m payments have a closer common ancestor than IOG&#8217;s genesis ADA, which cuts the # of intermediary hops between IOG and these Txs from ~40 to ~1 to 7 Txs,” Alexander wrote. “They gather up ~21 of the 64m ADA pledge&#8217;s from IOG&#8217;s private pools.”
Alexander also published a dedicated transaction graph and a broader report containing what he described as a hop-by-hop trace, an interactive flow graph, and raw identifiers linked to Cardanoscan. He presented the work cautiously, saying it was not a final adjudication of intent or legal responsibility.
“This is best effort attempt at looking into what transpired on chain, draw your own conclusions,” he wrote. “If you find any errors in the data or methodology, please feel free to reach out and i&#8217;ll update it.”
The distinction matters. The material cited by Alexander focuses on tracing transaction ancestry and common funding paths. It does not, on its own, prove who controlled every wallet, whether funds were sold on exchanges, or what contractual obligations may have applied. It does, however, revive questions about Cardano’s early distribution and the transparency of large ADA movements during one of the asset’s most significant bull-market periods.
Isle Of Man Filings Add Another Governance Question
Alexander’s renewed claims follow his earlier allegation that Hoskinson used Cardano “genesis keys” during the 2021 Allegra hard fork to alter or sweep old ICO and voucher-related UTxOs, moving roughly 318 million ADA into Cardano reserves or treasury rather than leaving them directly claimable by original voucher holders.
Hoskinson denied that allegation, saying IOG did not give itself hundreds of millions of unclaimed ADA and that most vouchers were eventually redeemed.
A later Cardano redemption transparency report said the allegations had “no basis.” According to the report, 99.2% of vouchers representing 99.7% of ADA sold through the voucher program were redeemed. It also stated that after Byron-era on-chain redemption ended, 390 vouchers representing 318 million ADA remained unredeemed and were swept into the reserve while a post-sweep redemption process continued.
The scrutiny is not limited to Alexander’s on-chain work. Thomas Braziel of 117 Partners separately said he had collected original Isle of Man filings related to Cardano’s earliest foundation structure. Braziel said the documents appeared to show an early foundation involving Hoskinson, Jeremy Wood, Ken Kodama, and a corporate services provider, while later filings showed Hoskinson serving as the foundation’s “Enforcer.”
Under Isle of Man foundation law, Braziel argued, an Enforcer is not simply a passive observer but a key oversight role meant to ensure that the council follows the foundation’s purposes and governing documents. He linked that question to the timing of Cardano’s ICO, which began in September 2015, before the Swiss Cardano Foundation was established in September 2016.
“The question is not whether development companies should be compensated,” Braziel wrote. “The question is: who negotiated those arrangements on behalf of ICO participants and the Isle of Man Foundation?”
Braziel said he was “not alleging wrongdoing” but asking for documentation on who controlled the Isle of Man Foundation, what happened to roughly 1,090 BTC historical materials indicate were allocated to it, how development agreements were negotiated, and what governance protections existed for ADA purchasers.
At press time, ADA traded at $0.16.

The report, authored by Grant Program Administrator Jonathan Bier, covers the technical output of four currently active grantees — Rkrux, Stratospher, Benalleng, and Macgyver — two of whom work on Bitcoin Core directly and two of whom focus entirely on advancing Bitcoin&#8217;s privacy infrastructure. Grants are issued on 12-month contracts, paid monthly in Bitcoin, and can be stacked up to a cap of $400,000 per developer per year. The program is wholly funded by Maelstrom, per the report.
Bitcoin Core: The Unglamorous Work That Keeps The Network Safe
Two grantees are dedicated to Bitcoin Core — the software that runs the nodes securing the most valuable financial network ever built.
Rkrux, a grantee since October 2024, has become one of the project&#8217;s most prolific reviewers. In 2025 alone he made 1,155 review comments across more than 200 pull requests, ranking him the 11th most active commenter on the entire codebase, per a dashboard built by developer Niklas Gögge cited in the report. In the first five months of 2026 he added more than 400 additional PR comments.
His work spans MuSig2 — a protocol that makes multisignature transactions indistinguishable from single-signature transactions on-chain, simultaneously improving privacy and reducing fees — as well as the deprecation of legacy wallets in favor of modern descriptor-based wallets that improve interoperability across the ecosystem.
Stratospher, a grantee since November 2025, has focused on the areas where bugs carry the most catastrophic potential consequences — consensus-critical validation code and the peer-to-peer network. She discovered and fixed an undefined behavior bug in Bitcoin Core&#8217;s FindMostWorkChain function, contributed to the removal of the BLOCK_FAILED_CHILD flag, and worked on DLEQ cryptographic proofs in libsecp256k1 in relation to Silent Payments.
She also presented at the Africa Bitcoin Conference on two panels covering open source development and privacy. Her report notes directly that bugs in consensus code can cause nodes to disagree on the state of the network — a failure mode with no clean recovery path.
Privacy: The Infrastructure Bitcoin Still Needs
The other two grantees are wholly dedicated to Bitcoin privacy technologies — an area the report describes as central to Maelstrom&#8217;s philosophy.
Benalleng, funded since June 2025, works full time on Payjoin — a transaction protocol that allows both the sender and receiver to contribute inputs to a Bitcoin transaction, systematically breaking the surveillance heuristic that all inputs in a transaction belong to the same party. The Payjoin API has been integrated into Bull Bitcoin and Cake Wallet, with five or more additional wallet integrations currently in progress, per the report.
Bindings for Python, Javascript, Dart, and CSharp have been released to maximize developer accessibility. The report makes an argument that deserves attention: even minority adoption of Payjoin degrades chain surveillance capabilities for the entire network, including users who never use Payjoin themselves — a game-theoretic asymmetry Maelstrom considers one of Bitcoin&#8217;s most underappreciated privacy levers.
Macgyver, also funded since June 2025, is focused on Silent Payments — a protocol proposed by Ruben Somsen in 2022 that allows senders to make multiple payments to a recipient using a single static address, without ever reusing that address on-chain. Wallet adoption has progressed materially over the past 12 months: Blindbit-Desktop, Cake Wallet, and Dana Wallet now support both send and receive phases, while Sparrow Wallet and Nunchuk have added send support.
Bitcoin Core has draft implementations for both phases but they remain on hold pending a dependency on the Silent Payments module in libsecp256k1, per the report. Macgyver has formalized the Silent Payments roadmap, produced BIP-375 test vectors, proposed the first working BIP-375 hardware signer implementation for Coldcard, and organized monthly Silent Payments working group meetups.
What The Program Represents
Maelstrom&#8217;s grant framework is deliberately narrow — it funds open-source Bitcoin protocol work only, with no commercial strings attached and no token incentives involved. The review committee is two people: Arthur Hayes and Jonathan Bier. The funding comes from a single source.
And the work being done — reviewing consensus code, hardening P2P privacy, building transaction obfuscation tooling — is the kind of development that receives no headlines, generates no token price and yet underpins the security and privacy of a network that now holds hundreds of billions of dollars in value.
This development marks a pivotal moment for how the nascent sector&#8217;s most successful participants choose to give back. A family office that has profited substantially from Bitcoin&#8217;s appreciation deploying capital directly into the protocol&#8217;s open-source development stack — paid in Bitcoin, reviewed by peers, and published transparently — is a model the industry rarely produces and almost never documents this clearly.

As time has gone on, the sentiment surrounding the altcoin has continued to decline, with many investors lamenting this poor performance. Recently, one XRP investor revealed that they had dumped their holdings, revealing the reason behind this and what is to come for the cryptocurrency.
Strategist’s Long-Term Move For XRP After Selling
Over the years, there have been numerous predictions that have suggested that the XRP price will head into double-digits at some point. While this has yet to happen, it has not deterred analysts and investors from actually calling for these numbers, triggering various responses from the community.
A crypto investor and strategist who goes by Bobby A was responding to one of these predictions when they revealed what they had done to their XRP holdings. According to the post, Bobby had sold the majority of their holdings above $2.85, pointing to the “nasty-looking monthly” as the reason behind the move.
Despite the XRP price having dropped so much since then, the crypto investor does not believe that the worst is over. Bobby revealed that he had plans to get back into the altcoin. However, he does not plan to buy any coins until the price is below $1. This would mean that the analyst expects the cryptocurrency to fall by at least another 10% before they will start buying the coins again.
Once the price falls below this level, the crypto analyst plans to get back into the altcoin. In all of this, Bobby also maintains that the prediction for the XRP price reaching above $10 is still valid and will eventually happen.
The Prediction That Shows When Price Will Cross $10
In the post that Bobby was responding to, pseudonymous crypto analyst Celal Kucuker had predicted the timeframe that they expected the XRP price to reach $10. According to the analyst, the says that the price could reach $10 between December 2025 and February 2027.
Going by this, the XRP price could be reaching new all-time highs in the next few months. Even more, the next 6-8 months could see it reach the coveted $10 level. This would mean a 1,000% rally from the current levels to hit the target levels.

SBI Shinsei Launches BTC, ETH, XRP Rewards
SBI Shinsei Bank, the banking arm of Japan&#8217;s SBI Group, will reportedly launch a program this fall that rewards depositors with cryptocurrency vouchers, based on their account balances, Nikkei first reported on Monday.
According to local news outlets, depositors will receive exchange vouchers equal to 20% of their deposit interest payments, redeemable for Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), or XRP “within a certain period,” with conversion based on market rates at the time of execution.
The bank will hold a three-month trial campaign starting June 10. The campaign will reportedly apply to fixed-term deposits and savings accounts with maturities ranging from three months to five years.
Deposits of 300,000 yen will receive a voucher worth about 500 yen, while deposits of 30 million yen or more will earn roughly 20,000 yen in vouchers. SBI Shinsei is set to take customer feedback to shape the final structure of the service, evaluating account openings and usage before deciding on a permanent rollout this fall.
While offering digital assets as a permanent deposit product is highly unusual, the program aims to attract new customers to the group’s crypto business, SBI VC Trade, using bank deposits as the entry point.
Notably, the number of individual deposit accounts currently stands at approximately 4.33 million, the reports added, and customers will reportedly be required to open an SBI VC Trade account to exchange their vouchers.
In February, SBI Shinsei Bank and SBI VC Trade ran a campaign offering up to 20,000 yen in XRP exchange vouchers, based on the total amount deposited in Power Direct yen time deposits.
SBI Group Expands Crypto Push
SBI Group has been accelerating its crypto expansion, rolling out new products while deepening its footprint in both trading and investment services. In March, SBI VC Trade introduced a retail USDC lending service, allowing users to lend stablecoins under fixed-term agreements in exchange for returns.
In May, SBI VC Trade, APLUS, and Visa Worldwide Japan introduced the SBI Visa Crypto Card, which converts spending rewards into BTC, ETH, or XRP. The card integrates with SBI Securities’ investment services, enabling automated crypto accumulation tied to monthly investment activity.
SBI Securities, alongside Rakuten Securities, is developing crypto investment trusts for direct sale to individual investors. Meanwhile, SBI has partnered with Startale Group to build a blockchain for tokenized stocks and launched JPYSC, a yen-backed stablecoin.
The group has also moved to consolidate its position in Japan’s crypto exchange market, formally submitting a letter of intent to acquire a stake in Bitbank, one of Japan’s top regulated exchanges, to make it a consolidated subsidiary, following the integration of Bitpoint Japan into SBI VC Trade.
In addition, SBI has outlined plans to launch crypto-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs), filing for a combined Bitcoin and XRP ETF on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, targeting $32 billion in assets within three years, and a “Digital Gold Crypto” ETF that would allocate 51% to gold and 49% to digital assets.

World Liberty Sales
The investigation describes World Liberty Financial’s token fundraising as the largest component of the Trump family’s alleged crypto windfall. World Liberty has disclosed raising $1.4 billion by selling 30 billion WLFI tokens, which Reuters says yielded roughly $987 million for the Trump family.
However, Reuters argues that the Trump family’s earnings from World Liberty token sales may be higher than the disclosed estimate. The outlet says that in an October 2025 filing tied to European crypto sales regulations, World Liberty reported it held 3 billion fewer tokens than it previously stated publicly. 
Using a weighted average of token prices during the relevant period, Reuters calculates that if sold, those tokens would have generated at least $460 million for the Trump family. 
Reuters says these likely additional sales would bring total Trump family earnings from World Liberty token sales to more than $1.4 billion, representing the largest share of the $2.3 billion overall figure cited in the investigation. 
TRUMP Memecoin Cashout
For the President&#8217;s official memecoin, Reuters used blockchain data to trace gains from coin sales across online marketplaces and to identify coin movements to crypto exchanges. 
The investigation says movements to exchanges strongly suggest sales, and it attributes that method to experts, including finance and computing professors, a law professor, and an industry analyst. 
Reuters reports that using weighted average prices during the periods when coins were moved to exchanges, it calculated that those movements—if they represented sales—raised more than $880 million. Reuters says total revenue, including sales through other channels, was about $1.2 billion. 
Reuters also details token flows involving ALT5 Sigma and World Liberty Financial. It says ALT5 Sigma, transformed into a crypto acquisition vehicle, partnered with World Liberty Financial to buy $717 million worth of World Liberty tokens. This purchase allegedly sent more than $500 million to the Trump family.
Beyond token sales, Reuters says it found that Eric Trump’s stake was worth over $70 million at the end of April, while it says the value of Donald Trump Jr.’s stake was not disclosed. 
The report also states that Hut 8 Corp, the Trump family’s partner in the venture, bought $25 million of World Liberty tokens shortly after the company launched, sending about $19 million to the Trump family.
Crypto Investor Losses
To estimate investor losses, Reuters says it compared what initial buyers paid for TRUMP and World Liberty tokens and for new shares in ALT5 Sigma and American Bitcoin against the current market values.  
For investors in World Liberty governance tokens, Reuters says early purchasers paid either $1.5 or $0.5 per token. Those early buyers may have profited on tokens they sold after trading began on crypto exchanges, but Reuters notes they were restricted from selling 80% of their holdings. 
Reuters says that for tokens bought after exchange trading began, prices have fallen as well. Altogether, Reuters estimates losses for investors in World Liberty tokens total about $674 million.
Reuters says buyers spent at least $1.2 billion on TRUMP, at prices up to $75.35. Using the April 30 price of $2.38, the report says those coins were worth $521 million, implying a loss of more than $700 million for buyers.
For the Nasdaq-listed companies, Reuters reports that ALT5 Sigma and American Bitcoin disclosed the number of shares sold and the money they raised through the end of March 2026. 
Since August of last year, Reuters says ALT5’s share price fell sharply, leaving investors down about $675 million. It says American Bitcoin’s shares dropped from $11 to $1.15 by the end of April after declining since September, leaving investors down more than $200 million.

That denial, however, did not stop US President Donald Trump from ordering a military response — and crypto markets felt it almost immediately.
Bitcoin Slides Below $62,000
Bitcoin was trading at $61,780 on Tuesday, June 8, down 3% on the day. The price had been holding above the $62,000 level before the US military action was announced.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down 2.5%, and trading at $61,400, data from Coingecko shows. The top crypto lost 7.6% of its value in the last seven days amid instability in the Middle East, and as the US and Iran grapple for a ceasefire deal.
US Central Command confirmed that American forces carried out what it described as &#8220;self-defense&#8221; strikes against Iran at 5 p.m. ET on June 9. The operation was triggered by the downing of a US Army Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz, an incident Trump addressed directly in a post on Truth Social.
Trump Declares A Response Was Necessary
Trump said he had been informed by the military that Iranian forces shot down what he called &#8220;one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters&#8221; while it was on patrol over the Strait of Hormuz. He confirmed both pilots were safe and uninjured. The US must &#8220;respond to this attack,&#8221; Trump wrote.
The broader crypto market turned bearish in the wake of the announcement. Long liquidations across the market hit nearly $1.40 million in a single hour, according to CoinGlass data, with Bitcoin accounting for more than $136 million in liquidations over the previous 24 hours.
Crypto Market Absorbs The Shock
The market had already been under pressure before Tuesday&#8217;s escalation. Bitcoin had been hovering around $60,000 earlier in the week following separate Israeli strikes on Iran, which had already rattled investor confidence.
Kazem Gharibabadi, Iran&#8217;s deputy foreign minister, said such incidents could happen amid the current climate of elevated tensions, but maintained that the helicopter&#8217;s downing was not a deliberate act by Tehran. His comments came as the conflict between the two countries continued to ripple outward, pulling asset prices down with it.
Bitcoin&#8217;s drop extends a period of sustained pressure for the world&#8217;s largest cryptocurrency, with no clear stabilization in sight as the geopolitical situation remains unresolved.

The asset has lost significant ground from the levels that briefly offered hope of a sustained recovery — but data from Arkham Intelligence has revealed an institutional development that reframes what is happening beneath the surface of the current weakness in a way that demands attention.
Bitmine — the Ethereum treasury company founded by prominent investor Tom Lee, whose bullish macro calls and institutional credibility have made him one of the most closely watched voices in traditional finance&#8217;s engagement with crypto — has just announced purchases totaling $213.57 million in Ethereum. The acquisition brings Bitmine&#8217;s total ETH holdings to 4.59% of the entire circulating supply.
That figure requires a moment to absorb. A single entity controlling 4.59% of Ethereum&#8217;s total supply represents one of the most concentrated institutional positions in the asset&#8217;s history. At current prices, the position is significant not only in dollar terms but in its structural implications for the available float — ETH committed to Bitmine&#8217;s treasury strategy is ETH that is not available for immediate sale on the open market.
Tom Lee&#8217;s firm is not reducing exposure into Ethereum&#8217;s weakness. It is announcing a $213 million purchase during it — expressing a directional conviction about where the asset goes from here that the current price below $1,700 has not diminished.
9.32 Billion in Ethereum and Still Buying
The Arkham data reveals the full scale of what Bitmine has already built — and the specific destination the accumulation strategy is moving toward. The company currently holds approximately $9.32 billion worth of Ethereum, representing 4.59% of the circulating supply. The position is already one of the largest single-entity Ethereum holdings ever documented on-chain.
But the accumulation is not complete. To reach the 5% threshold that appears to represent Bitmine&#8217;s near-term strategic target, the company needs to purchase an additional $819.86 million in Ethereum at current prices.
That figure is the most significant forward signal in the Arkham data. An institutional buyer with an identified, quantifiable purchase requirement of nearly $820 million represents a specific and predictable demand source that the market will need to price in regardless of current sentiment. Bitmine is not buying opportunistically based on daily price movements. It is executing against a declared strategic objective — and the distance between the current 4.59% and the 5% target defines exactly how much additional buying remains ahead.
For Ethereum struggling below $1,700 under selling pressure, the existence of a single buyer with $819 million still to deploy at current or lower prices creates a structural demand floor that most market participants have not yet fully incorporated into their assessment of where genuine support exists.
Ethereum Breaks Multi-Year Support
Ethereum remains under intense pressure on the weekly timeframe after collapsing below the critical $1,800-$1,900 support zone that had contained price throughout much of 2026. The breakdown confirms a major shift in market structure, with ETH now trading near $1,670 after reaching lows around $1,500 during the recent sell-off. More importantly, the failed recovery attempt from the March lows has produced a lower high near $2,350, reinforcing the broader bearish trend that has been developing since the 2025 peak above $4,800.
The technical damage is significant. ETH has now fallen below its 50-week, 100-week, and 200-week moving averages, leaving all major trend indicators positioned above current price action. The 200-week moving average near $2,450 has once again rejected price, while the 50-week and 100-week averages continue trending lower, confirming deteriorating momentum across multiple timeframes.
From a market structure perspective, the recent breakdown has erased the entire March-May recovery and pushed Ethereum back toward levels last seen during the first-quarter capitulation. Volume expanded sharply during the decline, suggesting the move was driven by aggressive distribution rather than ordinary profit-taking.
Bulls are attempting to stabilize above the $1,500-$1,600 region, but reclaiming the lost $1,800 support zone remains the first requirement before any meaningful recovery can begin. Until then, rallies are likely to face heavy selling pressure as bears maintain control of the trend.

The move came months after the first raid and pushed the case further into public view.
Police Return To Bithumb
Investigators from the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s public crime team were reported to have arrived at the company’s Gangnam office in the morning, while separate officers also looked into another Bithumb site during the earlier February search. That first sweep took place on Feb. 24, and witnesses from the exchange were later called in again in April.
The new search signals that police are still trying to piece together the same set of questions. They want to know whether Bithumb’s records, hiring files and internal messages match the exchange’s public account of the case.
Hiring Claims At The Center
The main thread running through the investigation is the claim that Kim used his position to help his second son land a job at Bithumb. Reports indicate that Kim made hiring requests between September and November 2024, that the son was hired in early January 2025, and that he stayed at the exchange for about six months.
Kim’s committee role gave him oversight of financial and virtual asset policy, which is why investigators are also examining whether his questions to Dunamu, the operator of Upbit, may have been part of a broader effort that created pressure around Bithumb. The probe now covers 13 separate suspicions, including alleged nomination bribery.
Questions Still Unanswered
Kim has been summoned about seven times over a nine-month span, according to the report, but police have not said the inquiry is finished. Bithumb, for its part, says the hiring followed normal procedures and that no irregularities were found in the process.
Local broadcasters moved quickly on the raid, with MBC, KBS and JTBC all carrying accounts of the search within hours. The exchange remains one of South Korea’s biggest trading venues and sits just behind Upbit in the domestic market, with about $576 million in daily volume reported in the story.
Bithumb Under Familiar Scrutiny
The latest raid also fits into a longer record of run-ins with authorities. The exchange has faced tax checks, fraud-related searches, token-manipulation probes and embezzlement-related raids in past years, making it a frequent target whenever South Korean regulators or police widen their focus.
Police disclosed that the wider case is still incomplete and requires further review before any findings are finalized, with no charges filed so far. Investigators added that any new materials gathered from Monday’s search could help accelerate the next phase of the inquiry.

The price has already dropped approximately 28% from recent levels — and a CryptoQuant analyst has identified a development in the derivatives data that places the current weakness in a structural context that extends well beyond short-term price action.
The most significant signal is not the price decline itself but the way Open Interest has reset across major exchanges during the decline. The derivatives positioning that accumulated throughout 2025 and into 2026 is unwinding — and the scale of that unwind has now returned multiple venues to levels last seen in April 2025, effectively erasing more than a year of leveraged exposure in a compressed timeframe.
On Gate.io, ETH Open Interest has fallen from $4.84 billion on May 7 to $2.68 billion on June 9 — a reduction of approximately $2.16 billion, or roughly 45%, in just over one month. The current reading almost exactly matches the $2.67 billion recorded on April 11, 2025. Bybit shows an identical pattern, with Open Interest near $805 million — virtually matching the $795 million level from April 9, 2025.
Two major exchanges have returned to April 2025 market structure simultaneously. The leverage built across the entire subsequent period has been cleared. Binance funding rates turning negative confirm that the remaining futures activity is not expressing bullish conviction — it is expressing uncertainty at best and mild bearish bias at worst.
The Funding Tells the Real Story
The CryptoQuant analysis identifies the asymmetry between venues as the detail that prevents the Open Interest reset from being read as a clean structural clearing. Gate.io and Bybit have both returned to April 2025 levels — the leverage accumulated across more than a year of market activity was erased in weeks. Binance has not followed the same path. ETH Open Interest on Binance remains around $2.76 billion, staying close to its higher range, while the other major venues have contracted sharply around it.
The retained Binance positioning does not automatically signal bullish intent to remain in the market. The funding rate tells a more accurate story. At approximately -0.0038, Binance funding has turned negative again — traders are not paying a premium to hold long exposure. The Open Interest is present, but the conviction behind it has shifted from directional to defensive.
That combination creates the specific market message the report identifies. The derivatives reset is real but uneven — some exchanges have cleared their leverage fully while Binance retains positioning under a funding backdrop that reflects caution rather than confidence. Negative funding during a price decline describes one of three conditions: defensive positioning from participants hedging existing exposure, short pressure from traders betting against recovery, or simply the absence of aggressive long conviction from participants who might otherwise be paying to hold bullish exposure.
None of those three conditions describes a market preparing to rally. Together, they describe a derivatives structure that has partially reset while the most important venue holds residual positioning without the directional commitment that would make that positioning constructive.
Ethereum Breaks February Lows — Can Bulls Defend The Last Major Weekly Support?
Ethereum is trading near $1,670 after suffering one of its most severe weekly breakdowns of the cycle, with price now falling below the February lows and reaching levels not seen since early 2023. The move is significant because it invalidates the broad trading range that contained ETH for most of 2026 and confirms a continuation of the bearish structure that has been developing since the rejection from the $4,800 cycle peak.
From a market structure perspective, the chart is defined by a clear sequence of lower highs and lower lows. After failing to hold above the $2,250-$2,350 resistance zone, Ethereum lost the critical $1,800 support area that previously acted as the floor of the February-March consolidation. That breakdown triggered a rapid move toward the $1,500 region, where buyers finally stepped in to prevent a deeper collapse.
The most important detail is that ETH is now trading below all major weekly moving averages. The 50-week, 100-week, and 200-week moving averages are clustered far above the current price, reinforcing the strength of the prevailing downtrend and creating significant resistance overhead.
The recent low near $1,500 now represents the most important support level on the chart. If buyers can defend that area, Ethereum could attempt to build a base and recover toward $1,800. However, a weekly close below the recent lows would expose the market to a deeper retracement toward the $1,300-$1,400 region, extending the correction and confirming further deterioration in long-term market structure.

Protect Developers, Target Bad Actors
Speaking on social media site X (formerly Twitter), Smith framed the legislation as a chance to strengthen legal clarity around how public blockchains operate—particularly for the developers and infrastructure providers who build and maintain the open-source systems.
In a letter published on Tuesday,  signed by more than 60 leading CEOs and founders, the industry calls on the Senate to move forward with the CLARITY Act while preserving what Smith described as robust developer protections. 
According to Smith, Protecting developers sits at the center of Solana Institute’s mission. She said public blockchains depend on open-source contributors who write, maintain, and improve the code that runs them. 
Because these engineers typically publish software that can be downloaded and used by anyone, she argued that they do not directly hold money, do not have the ability to freeze accounts, and do not move funds. 
Smith also argued that strong developer protections do not weaken enforcement. Instead, she said that through the potential passage of the CLARITY Act, they could make enforcement more effective by creating clearer lines between different participants in the market. 
When the law clearly distinguishes between intermediaries that custody assets or control transactions, bad actors, regulators, and prosecutors can focus their attention on the parties she described as actually responsible for illicit conduct—such as those custodying funds, operating platforms, or facilitating wrongdoing.
CLARITY Act With BRCA Intact
In her message, Smith pointed specifically to the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) as a key element of that approach. Smith said the BRCA provides legal certainty for noncontrolling software developers and infrastructure providers who do not custodian assets or control user transactions. 
Smith also referenced a separate letter released by the Blockchain Association, saying that last week, 160 former national security, intelligence, and law enforcement professionals made a similar argument: that “clarity is an enforcement advantage.” 
In her account, clearer rules help keep legitimate activity onshore and provide prosecutors with better tools to target bad actors, rather than creating uncertainty that discourages compliant development.
In Smith’s view, the core objective is not simply to pass a bill, but to ensure it leads to meaningful certainty for builders. She warned that if developer protections are weakened, the broader CLARITY Act could fall short of one of its most important goals—giving responsible builders confidence to work in the United States. 
Smith concluded that the Senate should pass the CLARITY Act with the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act intact. She summarized her position as a straightforward set of goals: protect developers, target bad actors, preserve open-source innovation, and maintain US leadership in the crypto sector.

The firm’s central message is not that blockchains face an immediate crisis, but that the industry needs to begin post-quantum migration before “Q-Day” becomes a live security event.
The report, titled “Quantum Computing and Blockchains,” was authored by Will Su, Head of Digital Assets Research at BlackRock, Inish Crisson, Senior Software Engineer at Aladdin Digital Assets Lab, and Robert Mitchnick, BlackRock’s Head of Digital Assets. It frames quantum computing as both a cybersecurity risk and a potential test of blockchain governance, particularly for networks that rely on elliptic curve cryptography for transaction signatures.
“Quantum computing has been the subject of growing attention in recent years, particularly due to its implications for blockchains and many other elements of modern cyber infrastructure,” the authors wrote. “In our view, quantum computing is likely to be a manageable risk for blockchains, subject to the industry’s ability to upgrade swiftly and proactively to post-quantum cryptography in the coming years.”
Bitcoin And Ethereum’s Core Risk
BlackRock stresses that no functional Cryptographically Relevant Quantum Computer, or CRQC, exists today. But it says timelines have shifted. The report notes that Google has moved its post-quantum migration deadline to 2029, while IBM is targeting large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing between 2029 and 2033.
The main issue is not Bitcoin’s proof-of-work engine. BlackRock says Bitcoin’s SHA-256 hash function is “largely considered quantum-resistant,” with Grover’s algorithm offering only a quadratic speedup that could be absorbed by Bitcoin’s difficulty adjustment. The more relevant attack surface is ownership: the digital signatures that prove control over coins.
Bitcoin and Ethereum currently rely on elliptic curve cryptography for key ownership and transaction authorization. Classical computers would need millions to billions of years to break 256-bit ECC, according to the report. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer using Shor’s Algorithm could change that equation by turning private-key recovery into a more tractable mathematical problem.
“The foundations of modern-day cryptography become challenged in the quantum world,” BlackRock wrote. “This is not because quantum computers run faster. Rather, QCs are particularly efficient at teasing out hidden patterns in large datasets by leveraging unique properties of quantum physics and employing quantum algorithms to solve classically infeasible problems like ECDLPs in as little as days to minutes.”
Bitcoin’s Migration Is Simpler, But Coordination Is Hard
For Bitcoin, BlackRock argues that the technical scope of a post-quantum upgrade is narrower than for many other systems because the core task is replacing a digital-signature algorithm. The harder problem is social coordination across a decentralized network that deliberately avoids rapid or centralized change.
The report says nearly 7 million BTC, or roughly 35% of circulating supply, may be vulnerable to long-range quantum attacks because public keys have already been exposed. That figure includes 1.9 million BTC in address types that expose unhashed public keys and another 5 million BTC in reused addresses that have revealed public keys in previous transactions while still holding UTXOs.
BlackRock also highlights the unresolved debate around inactive or lost coins. It cites Chainalysis estimates that 2.3 million to 3.7 million BTC, or 11% to 19% of circulating supply, may be permanently lost. That includes roughly 1.1 million BTC in P2PK addresses widely believed to belong to Satoshi Nakamoto.
“In our view, PQ migration for cryptocurrencies is eminently addressable from a technical standpoint, and the key challenge is one of timely coordination and implementation,” the report said. “The end-to-end process to build consensus around PQC protocols and timing, implement upgrades on the blockchain, and perform orderly migrations across the ecosystem will likely be a multi-year endeavor.”
Ethereum Has A Roadmap, But More Moving Parts
Ethereum’s situation is different. BlackRock says the network has a more clearly defined migration path, guided by the Ethereum Foundation, but faces greater technical complexity due to its proof-of-stake architecture, smart-contract environment, data layer and application-layer zero-knowledge systems.
The report cites four Ethereum vulnerability areas identified by Vitalik Buterin in early 2026: BLS signatures in the consensus layer, KZG proofs in the data layer, externally owned account signatures, and zero-knowledge proofs in the application layer. In simpler terms, validator voting, data verification, user transactions and app-level proofs all touch quantum-vulnerable cryptographic assumptions.
BlackRock points to Ethereum’s “L1 Strawmap,” a draft sequence of seven network updates and hard forks between 2026 and 2029, five of which directly address quantum vulnerabilities. These include native account abstraction, post-quantum signature precompiles, post-quantum validator keys, hash-based consensus signatures and a longer-term shift from KZG commitments toward STARK-based verification.
A Wall Of Worry For Crypto
BlackRock’s conclusion is measured. The report does not present quantum computing as an imminent existential threat to Bitcoin or Ethereum. It argues instead that quantum risk is one of the few remaining “walls of worry” for digital assets, and that successful post-quantum migrations could strengthen the sector over time.
“Global cybersecurity infrastructure stands at an important inflection point as quantum computing advances,” the authors wrote. “Digital assets including Bitcoin and Ethereum are technically positioned for migration; a harder problem is coordinating timelines and rolling out upgrades across decentralized networks in an orderly manner. That said, it is a much less daunting task to upgrade current cryptographic systems, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others, to a quantum-secure standard than it is to build a CRQC from where quantum computing progress stands today.”
At press time, BTC traded at $62,629.

The token is beginning to align with a rare monthly relative strength index (RSI) setup that—according to past cycles—has appeared before major, explosive rallies. 
According to market expert Sam Daodu, the last three times this signal flashed—in 2017, 2020, and 2022—XRP went on to rally dramatically afterward. The gains in those periods ranged from 1,000% to 60,000%. However, there’s an important caveat: those enormous percentage outcomes started from extremely low price levels. 
XRP Price Watch
Sam Daodu identified that XRP’s monthly RSI has fallen to about 41.6. In the report’s framing, that reading is not just low—it’s described as the lowest ever. The RSI level is characterized as a deep-oversold zone that XRP has only reached four times in 13 years. 
In theory, oversold conditions can sometimes mark the beginning of a turn, which is why the signal has drawn attention again after the XRP price tested $1. Still, Daodu’s view includes a reality check about expectations. 
While the earlier examples of significant price increases may be inspiring, they were driven by market conditions that are not easily replicated. For example, when the XRP price was under a penny in 2017, the subsequent rally carried it to $3.84 — a five-figure percentage gain. 
The report argues that simply applying the same percentage-gain math to today’s higher price base would imply XRP reaching prices in the hundreds of dollars—something Daodu suggests is not realistic in the current cycle.
The Next Rally Could Stretch To 2027
So the question becomes: if the pattern “holds,” what outcome is plausible rather than fantasy? In the report’s estimate, reclaiming the $3.65 cycle high over the next year or two would be roughly a 3x move from current levels. 
That kind of recovery is presented as believable, assuming broader market sentiment turns in crypto’s favor. Going substantially higher, such as $5 or beyond, is described as requiring more than just a technical bounce for the XRP price. 
The report ties that possibility to fundamental catalysts, specifically noting that it would depend on the CLARITY Act passing and exchange-traded fund (ETF) demand genuinely expanding, not only RSI strength returning.
Even if the XRP price bottom is already in, the report suggests the rally that follows could take until 2027 to fully develop. It also adds that a flat price through the summer wouldn’t necessarily break the pattern, because the monthly RSI setup is designed to play out gradually over a longer timeline.

Ethereum Spot ETFs Saw Net Inflows On Monday
According to data from SoSoValue, Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs have diverged in trend recently. &#8220;Spot ETFs&#8221; here refer to investment vehicles that allow investors to gain indirect exposure to an underlying asset.
For Bitcoin and Ethereum, these funds launched in the United States back in January and July 2024, respectively. Whenever a trader invests in one of them, the corresponding fund buys and custodies the cryptocurrency on the investor&#8217;s behalf. This means that via these vehicles, traders can get exposure to a digital asset&#8217;s price movements without having to interact with any blockchain infrastructure, like wallets and exchanges.
The convenience of spot ETFs, along with the fact that they are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has made them a popular mode of investment for BTC and ETH among traditional entities like institutions. While the ETFs are relatively new compared to the age of the assets, they have already established themselves as one of the cornerstones of the sector, acting as a gateway for a significant exchange of capital.
Lately, the sector has been facing bearish winds, so outflows have been dominating the spot ETFs. First, here is a chart that shows the trend in the netflow for Ethereum funds:
As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum spot ETF netflow has mostly been negative since May 7th. During this period of capital exit, the ETH price has gone from $2,300 to as low as under $1,600.
Interestingly, however, things have seen a reversal during the last few days. On June 4th, ETH spot ETFs enjoyed net inflows of $19 million, breaking the streak of net outflows. June 5th again saw capital leave the market, although the scale was pretty small. Now, Monday has seen another positive netflow spike, this time involving a significant sum of $82 million.
While, Ethereum has seen conditions improve, the same hasn&#8217;t exactly been true for Bitcoin.
From the chart, it&#8217;s visible that Bitcoin also saw some inflows on June 4th, but at $3 million, the value of the netflow was as good as neutral. BTC has since continued to face net outflows, with Monday observing an exit of $91 million in capital, more than the amount ETH has seen go the other way.
As such, it would appear that at least some spot ETF investors are currently showing a higher interest in Ethereum relative to Bitcoin.
ETH Price
Ethereum has bounced back a bit since its low, as its price is now trading around $1,670.

At the moment, the market is under severe bearish pressure, yet on-chain data suggests a major shift could be underway. If this bullish trend continues, the key question remains whether it could help support a Bitcoin price recovery and prevent further downtrends.
Bitcoin High Transaction Count To Hit Record Levels Soon
Bitcoin is seeing an unusual spike in on-chain activity even as its price continues to bleed. Sharing a CryptoQuant chart showcasing the sharp spike, crypto analyst Darkfost highlighted that a historic change of hands is now playing out, with BTC transactions approaching an all-time high based on the 30-day Moving Average (MA).
Darkfost noted that Bitcoin’s price decline has accelerated sharply in June, declining by roughly 19% just this week and adding further pressure to its already fragile structure. Despite the downtrend, the analyst noted that the cryptocurrency’s average monthly transaction count is now around 640,000. He noted that this level is close to what was last seen during the 2024 BTC price correction, when the crypto network recorded a whopping 666,000 transactions in September, marking one of its busiest periods. 
Darkfost noted that the recent surge in BTC on-chain activity is unusual compared to previous cycles, as rising transaction counts typically coincide with bullish phases or market tops. However, the current trend indicates that BTC is firmly in bearish territory and has declined below previously presumed bottom levels.  
As a result, the analyst described the current surge in transaction activity as a major “capitulation episode” and one of the most significant “change of hands” in Bitcoin’s history. Given the extent of BTC’s bearish trend, it remains unclear whether increased transaction activity alone can lift the cryptocurrency’s price out of its downtrend. 
Short-Term Sellers See Heavy Losses As BTC Price Drop Continues
In a separate analysis, Darkfost noted that short-term Bitcoin holders are facing major losses after reacting strongly to the latest Bitcoin price drop. According to him, holders with positions under six months were hit the hardest when BTC’s price slipped below $60,000 during last week&#8217;s correction.
Over a 24-hour window, at the height of the decline, Darkfost stated that more than 60,200 BTC were sent to exchanges by short-term holders. Of that total, over 59,000 BTC were moved at a loss, marking the largest negative returns for this group since February.
The data showed that emotional selling played a major role in the move, with newer market participants locking in losses under pressure. This trend shows how quickly sentiment can shift during sharp corrections, especially among short-term traders.

In this unfavorable market environment, the flagship asset may be entering a crucial phase as leverage steadily dries up across the market.
Moderate Leverage Turning Up On The Bitcoin Market
Bitcoin is seeing persistent bearish pressure, but a report shows that the market just made a major shift that could play a role in its short-term trajectory. As volatility builds, the BTC market seems to be moving into a lower-leverage phase as traders become more cautious and speculative excesses start to calm.
A recent analysis of the Bitcoin Leverage Pressure Zone by Joao Wedson, the founder of Alphractal and verified author at CryptoQuant, shows that BTC has left the extreme leverage phase and moved into moderate and slight leverage. This implies that the risk of large-scale liquidations, which frequently accompany highly leveraged conditions, has decreased as aggressive positioning in derivatives markets has subsided.
Since many traders were liquidated last week, the risk of forced liquidations is dropping significantly. However, Wedson highlights that the market has not yet reached the blue/purple zone indicated on the chart, which marks extreme deleveraging. 
In the past, this region was considered an ideal one to gain exposure with greater safety. The expert claims that the market has not yet gotten to that phase, but it will likely take a few more weeks or months before we reach that stage.
Even though it might occasionally indicate a declining risk appetite, lower leverage may indicate a healthier market structure based on higher spot demand rather than speculative momentum. Despite this shift into moderate and slight leverage, Wedson has urged investors to approach the derivatives market with caution. “If you do not understand its health, you can be liquidated at any moment, “ he added.
Small BTC Whales Are Now In Losses
With the Bitcoin market deeply in a volatile state, investors are beginning to feel the pressure of this downward action, even big investors. CW, a data analyst and investor, reported on X that small whales are now underwater as bearish performance mounts.
Here, small whales represent wallet addresses holding between 100 BTC and 1,000 BTC, and these investors have now returned to a loss position. This shift in profitability is attributed to the recent decline in BTC’s price to the $60,000 threshold.
In order for the group to return to profit territory, the expert stated that BTC’s price must bounce back to the $64,000 mark. CW added that the brief uptrend of Bitcoin started as these investors slowly approached the profit zone. In the meantime, recovering the $64,000 level is the first condition for the rise to kick off.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price was trading at $63,370, and was showing a nearly 1% rise within the past day. While prices are slowly turning bullish, BTC’s trading volume within the same time frame has dropped by over 5%.

Analyst Predicts What Will Push Price Above $10,000</title><description><![CDATA[BNB has already forced its way back into the upper end of the crypto market rankings by beating XRP in May, but the next question is much bigger than its battle with XRP. 
A new analysis argues that the token can still reclaim its old high and push above $2,000, but any talk of a $10,000 to $20,000 BNB price requires a much larger crypto market than the one that exists today.
The Math Behind BNB’s Push Above $10,000
Crypto Patel, a popular crypto analyst on X, published an interesting breakdown of BNB&#8217;s price ceiling this week, and the numbers are worth sitting with. BNB currently holds a market cap of about $80.6 billion, placing it at number four in global rankings, only behind Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT. Its all-time high of around $1,370 in October 2025 implies a market cap that reached somewhere near $185 billion at its peak. 
Although the peak all-time high means BNB has managed to hold huge value before, getting to $10,000 per token is an entirely different scale of ambition. With BNB&#8217;s supply on an assumed long-term burn trajectory to a 100 million supply target, a $10,000 price would imply a market cap of $1 trillion, which is almost what the total market cap of Bitcoin is worth today.
A $20,000 BNB, he pointed out, would represent a $2 trillion valuation for a single asset, which would exceed the combined worth of the entire crypto market as it stands right now. “Anyone throwing out $20,000 as a near-term target is selling you something, not analyzing,” the analyst wrote.
Can BNB Really Overtake Ethereum?
BNB overtook XRP again in market cap rankings in mid-May, and the distance between them has been growing since then. The next crypto is Ethereum, and BNB overtaking Ethereum is not impossible, but the current market cap gap makes it more of a long-term challenge.
At today’s supply, BNB would need to trade around $1,500 to match Ethereum’s $203 billion valuation, using the current ETH market cap as a static comparison. That level is close to BNB’s previous all-time high zone, which means a flip could only happen soon if BNB returns to record levels while the Ethereum price stays relatively the same. However, in a real-world scenario, Ethereum would likely also rise in a broad market recovery.
The more pressing structural obstacle is one Crypto Patel identified as the Binance concentration risk. Almost every value driver for BNB, the burn mechanism, exchange fee utility, on-chain activity, and institutional custody, runs through or is adjacent to the crypto exchange Binance. Any serious negativity against Binance would also dent BNB&#8217;s price action.
Crypto Patel&#8217;s believable bull case is reclaiming the old high and pushing toward $3,000. However, the analyst’s chart also projected a trajectory that eventually reaches the $20,000 range, placing that scenario in 2029 at the earliest.

A decline in this area highlights just how bearish the market has become after months of volatility and steep price declines. Throughout last year, Solana experienced a massive rally that pushed its price firmly above $200. However, now the cryptocurrency has spent most of 2026 trading between lower levels around $60 and $95. Given the poor performance, a crypto analyst is questioning whether SOL may have finally hit a bottom. 
Solana RSI Hits Oversold Levels Beyond FTX Crash
According to a detailed price chart shared by market expert Ash Crypto, Solana’s monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped to 38.84, below the signal line sitting near 48.86. The analyst noted that this reading shows the altcoin has reached oversold levels even more extreme than those recorded when FTX collapsed into bankruptcy in 2022, and SOL fell to a low near $8. 
The fact that the RSI is now lower despite the price being significantly higher than the 2022 $8 bottom suggests that the momentum decline in this cycle has been unusually severe. From a technical standpoint, prolonged oversold readings on the monthly RSI can signal a potential price reversal, reflecting seller exhaustion. However, oversold conditions can persist for a long time, as a low RSI alone does not confirm that a cryptocurrency has reached its bottom.
Given the uncertainty around Solana’s future price direction, Ash Crypto is questioning whether the struggling altcoin has finally found a price floor. If a bottom has been reached, it would imply that most traders who wanted out have likely exited the market, leaving only holders who are committed to Solana long-term. This kind of capitulation often sets the stage for a recovery, as there is very little selling pressure left to disrupt the market. 
Notably, after Solana dropped to the $8 bottom in 2022, the cryptocurrency eventually rallied to over $270 in 2025, representing a massive 3,000% recovery. While a confirmed bottom in this cycle does not guarantee the same scale of gains, historically, assets that hit a price floor with RSI readings tend to produce significant rallies. 
What It Means If SOL Has Yet To Reach A Bottom
On the flip side, Ash Crypto stated in his analysis that Solana’s price has fallen to a three-year low of $60 after plunging more than 80% from its 2025 all-time high. The analyst noted that cryptocurrency has posted eight consecutive red monthly candles for the first time in its history, highlighting the depth of its bearish trend. 
At the moment, there is no signal on SOL’s chart that definitively confirms a bottom or an imminent price reversal. This is because Solana remains firmly in bearish territory, which means its RSI can stay oversold longer than expected. If a price floor has not been reached, it suggests that SOL still has room for further downside, potentially pushing the cryptocurrency below its current level near $60.

Currently, the XRP futures market has increased significantly, reaching one of its notable levels in the past few months, signaling that traders are becoming increasingly active.
Futures Traders Rush Into XRP Market
XRP is once again demonstrating robust underlying strength in some key areas of the market in the face of bearish conditions. Despite a sharp decline in its price over the past few weeks, trading activity around the leading altcoin is starting to heat up, especially in the dynamic futures market.
According to reports from Xaif Crypto, a data analyst and crypto investor, XRP futures volume recently spiked to about $5 billion as the asset’s value dropped to the $1.09 mark. Given the current condition of the market, the development is providing new information on changing trading expectations and market mood.
This sudden spike in futures volume is a sign that traders are repositioning, with some betting on a deeper decline and others perceiving the pullback as a possible buying opportunity. The last time the market saw this kind of growth was in February this year, when the altcoin reached $1.65. 
However, this was linked to the selling of euphoria. Furthermore, the current scenario appears different, and high volume on a flush implies that an investor is accumulating rather than exiting the market.
While the futures volume has seen a notable rise, XRP’s Open Interest (OI) has witnessed one of its sharpest declines yet in the ongoing market cycle. The chart shows that the open interest has just dropped to its lowest levels yet since before the bull run. At the same time, smart money is quietly re-entering the market, scooping up more XRP.
In January 2025, data shows that the OI peaked at $1.4 billion. However, the metric has now bled to near cycle lows. As seen on the chart, institutional investors are subtly building their positions while retail traders are doing the opposite.
Wall Street Goes Into Accumulation Mode Toward The Altcoin
In the midst of the growing institutional position is the recent purchase made by Wall Street. Cheeky Crypto reported that Wall Street scooped up over 775 million XRP while retail investors stayed distracted by short-term price wiggles and endless regulatory updates.
The expert stated that this investigative breakdown exposes a massive structural shift, which is taking place underneath the surface of global finance. Such a development reveals how the underlying technology is transitioning from a speculative digital asset into the primary bridge for multi-trillion-dollar asset migration.
As traditional banking plumbing is discreetly upgraded for speed and settlement finality, Cheeky Crypto highlighted that institutional vaults are absorbing the circulating supply to lock in long-term control. When institutions are buying, it is often seen as a sign of rising conviction toward the altcoin’s long-term prospects.

This follows an announcement by the Depository Trust &amp; Clearing Corporation (DTCC), in which it named the crypto firm as a partner for its tokenization service. 
How Ripple And XRP Have Found Their Way Into Wall Street
In an X post, Bank XRP stated that Ripple is now inside Wall Street’s core infrastructure. He noted that DTCC, which clears $114 trillion in transactions, has confirmed that Ripple Prime is among the more than 50 firms joining its tokenization working group. The firm joins the likes of BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan, which DTCC also named.  
DTCC revealed that it plans to roll out the pilot of production trades of tokenized real-world assets using its service in July 2026 and then launch the service in October 2026. Meanwhile, in response to Bank XRP’s post, crypto analyst ChartNerd highlighted that DTCC’s partnership with Ripple Prime is bullish for XRP. 
In an X post, he noted that Ripple Prime is used in all U.S. states and that the brokerage now allows clients to use XRP and RLUSD. He added that the prime brokerage leverages both assets for trading, collateral, and post-trade settlement. It is worth noting that the DTCC partnership comes as the tokenization narrative heats up on the XRP Ledger (XRPL).
RWA.xyz data shows that the XRP Ledger has now crossed $4 billion in total RWA value, up over 10% in the last 30 days. Other metrics, such as the RWA holders, stablecoin market cap, stablecoin holders, and stablecoin transaction volume, are also up over the last 30 days, signaling significant network activity. 
Pundit Draws XRP Relation To Bank Of America’s Partnership With SWIFT
In an X post, crypto pundit X Finance Bull explained how Bank of America’s move to launch cross-border payments via SWIFT relates to XRP.  He noted that the bank has been listed as a RippleNet member and has sat on Ripple’s Governance Committee. The pundit added that the bank also has XRP exposure through the Volatility Shares XRP ETF. 
In line with this, X Finance Bull noted that the same bank, expanding through SWIFT, already has regulated XRP exposure and ties to the payment firm. He declared that banks are not choosing between SWIFT and Ripple but are running both lanes simultaneously. On the one hand, SWIFT gives these banks global messaging reach across more than 11,000 institutions. On the other hand, RippleNet is said to provide blockchain-based settlement and on-demand liquidity through XRP, where speed, cost, and capital efficiency matter. 
At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.15, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

With more than 10 million BTC now held below their acquisition cost, a growing portion of the market is underwater. According to recent on-chain observations highlighted by analyst Ali Martinez, this development places Bitcoin in a zone that has historically coincided with major market turning points, raising fresh debate over whether the latest decline is nearing a bottom.
Bitcoin’s Underwater Supply Reaches A Historic Threshold
The latest data points to a remarkable shift in market positioning. According to Glassnode, BTC’s Total Supply in Loss metric shows that approximately 10.46 million BTC are currently being held at a loss. Given Bitcoin’s circulating supply of just under 21 million coins, that figure represents roughly half of all coins in existence.
The significance of this threshold becomes clearer when viewed against Bitcoin’s historical market cycles. Previous major bottoms have frequently developed when the amount of BTC held at a loss climbed beyond 10 million coins. Similar conditions emerged during some of the market’s deepest corrections, many of which later gave way to prolonged recoveries.
The latest on-chain data also highlights the shifting balance between profitable and unprofitable holdings. As Bitcoin’s price retreated from its highs, the number of coins held in profit contracted while the amount of supply sitting at a loss expanded considerably. By June 2026, the latter had risen to roughly 10.46 million BTC, pushing the market into a zone that has historically been associated with severe downturns and heightened investor stress.
At the same time, Bitcoin’s price has fallen substantially from its cycle highs. Recent market data shows BTC trading around $63,242, with losses extending across multiple timeframes, including a decline of more than 40% over the previous year. Those figures help explain why such a large share of the network has slipped into unrealized losses.
Bottom Signal Or Just Another Stage Of A Correction?
This is where the discussion becomes particularly interesting. Martinez argues that elevated loss holdings can reduce the intensity of selling activity. When large numbers of investors are already deeply underwater, the incentive to liquidate positions often diminishes. Rather than locking in losses, many holders choose to wait, causing selling pressure to gradually weaken.
Recent Glassnode data appears to support the idea that sentiment has deteriorated significantly. Bitcoin’s Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) indicator has fallen into the “Hope–Fear” zone after spending much of the previous year in more optimistic territory. Historically, these lower NUPL ranges have reflected periods when confidence has been shaken, but widespread capitulation has not necessarily intensified further.
The combination of more than 10 million BTC in loss, weak sentiment, and a steep decline from previous highs has historically appeared near major market bottoms. While a definitive bottom remains unconfirmed, the scale of unrealized losses across the network indicates that Bitcoin is once again trading in a zone often associated with accumulation and recovery.

In a post on X, Metaplanet CEO and Representative Director Simon Gerovich reaffirmed that BTC Yield — the company&#8217;s primary key performance indicator, measuring the rate of growth in Bitcoin held per diluted share — remains the central lens through which all capital allocation decisions are evaluated.
Gerovich referenced the company&#8217;s established capital allocation policy directly: &#8220;When mNAV is below 1.0x we will strongly consider repurchasing common shares to maximize BTC Yield, and the lower the mNAV, the greater the potential accretion,&#8221; per the policy document accompanying the post.
Why mNAV Below 1.0x Changes The Calculus
The logic behind Metaplanet&#8217;s buyback trigger is precise and counterintuitive to traditional equity investors. When the company&#8217;s market capitalization trades at a discount to the Bitcoin it holds — meaning each share can be purchased for less than the BTC it represents — buying back shares is mathematically equivalent to acquiring additional Bitcoin at a discount to spot. Each share retired at 0.90x mNAV increases the Bitcoin per share ratio for remaining shareholders without requiring a single new coin to be purchased, per the capital allocation policy as cited by Gerovich.
Metaplanet&#8217;s BTC Yield metric, as described in its Q1 2026 report, is a self-defined measure of how effectively the company accumulates Bitcoin relative to its share base — distinct from interest rates or staking returns. The company reported a 2.8% BTC Yield for Q1 2026, per Yahoo Finance&#8217;s coverage of the quarterly results. A share buyback at current mNAV levels would accelerate that figure materially.
The Company&#8217;s Position And The Broader Context
Metaplanet currently holds approximately 40,177 BTC — acquired for approximately $4.18 billion at an average cost basis of $104,106 per coin — making it the third-largest publicly traded corporate Bitcoin holder globally, trailing only Strategy and Twenty One Capital. The company&#8217;s ambitious &#8220;555 Million Plan&#8221; targets 100,000 BTC by year-end and 210,000 BTC by 2027 — a goal requiring roughly $10 billion in additional capital at current prices.
Metaplanet stock closed 2.95% higher at 244 yen on June 9 following Gerovich&#8217;s post, recovering from intraday lows despite the broader Bitcoin market weakness. The stock has fallen approximately 47% year-to-date and 30% over the past month, per Coingape&#8217;s tracking of the Tokyo-listed shares — declines that, under Metaplanet&#8217;s own framework, paradoxically create the conditions for the most accretive buybacks the company could execute.

This development marks a pivotal and revealing moment for the nascent sector&#8217;s Bitcoin treasury model. A company whose stock price declines create automatic incentives to buy back shares — each repurchase mechanically increasing Bitcoin per share — has engineered a capital structure where market weakness feeds directly into long-term holder value. Whether the mNAV trigger translates into executed buybacks in the coming sessions will depend on Metaplanet&#8217;s available liquidity and the trajectory of Bitcoin&#8217;s price recovery.

Coinbase Executive Weighs In</title><description><![CDATA[Institutions that bought Bitcoin at $100,000 and $125,000 are showing even greater interest now that prices have dropped to around $60,000, according to Coinbase Head of Institutional Strategy John D&#8217;Agostino.
He made the remarks in a recent interview with CNBC, as Bitcoin trades around $63,500 after a sharp pullback last week.
No Sign Of Panic Selling Among Big Players
D&#8217;Agostino said he is unaware of any major institutional investor facing dangerous levels of leverage or imminent liquidation risk. Rather than cutting exposure, many large holders are reportedly looking to raise additional capital and expand their Bitcoin positions.
Family offices, sovereign wealth funds, and government investment entities in the Middle East are among those viewing the recent correction as a chance to buy at lower prices, D&#8217;Agostino said.
He noted that institutions have spent years studying Bitcoin and tend to grow more interested as prices fall, not less.
The backdrop to all this is a Bitcoin market that turned sharply lower over the past week. The asset dropped to around $59,500 after trading above $70,000 just days earlier, before recovering above $63,000.
ETF Exposure Holds Despite The Drop
Despite the steep decline, investors have kept more than $750 billion in exposure through spot Bitcoin ETFs, according to D&#8217;Agostino. Retail participation has dipped only slightly.
&#8220;I think both retail and institutional are signaling this is a long-term asset you want to hold,&#8221; he said during the interview.
CNBC host Joe Kernen raised several factors that may have contributed to the pullback — among them a risk-off environment, capital rotation into other assets, elevated interest rates, and slower-than-expected progress on regulatory clarity.
D&#8217;Agostino acknowledged these concerns are widely cited by market participants, but argued that price swings are normal for an asset class that behaves like a commodity.
Geopolitical Uncertainty Adds To The Pressure
He also addressed geopolitical headwinds, including tensions involving Iran and uncertainty surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, saying Bitcoin&#8217;s long-term investment case remains intact despite those pressures.
The improved market infrastructure and evolving regulatory framework, he added, make the current environment stronger than it was during previous downturns.
Bitcoin was trading at $63,841 at the time of publication, up 3.4% over the prior 24 hours, based on data from Coingecko.

The attack unfolded in two phases. In the first, attackers minted 100 million H tokens and drained associated wallets, converting approximately $23.7 million into ETH across multiple addresses while leaving roughly $7.9 million in H tokens, per on-chain data flagged by Arkham Intelligence.
In the second phase, the attacker extended the exploit to BNB Chain — taking over the H token&#8217;s proxy admin contract and minting an additional 100 million H tokens worth approximately $12.9 million to a fresh wallet, per blockchain security firm Blockaid&#8217;s on-chain monitoring of the incident.
Humanity Protocol acknowledged the breach in an official post on X, confirming that private keys belonging to a member of the Humanity Foundation had been compromised. The team urged users to avoid interacting with the bridge or any liquidity pools until further notice, and stated that official updates would come only from the main account or co-founder Terence Kwok&#8217;s personal account, per the @Humanityprot post — one of your provided sources.
ZachXBT&#8217;s Three-Post Takedown On The Crypto Hack
The incident might have passed as a conventional private key compromise had ZachXBT not weighed in within hours. In three posts on X the pseudonymous on-chain investigator systematically dismantled the team&#8217;s narrative.
In his first post, ZachXBT noted that the picture was unclear — it could be a hack or a deliberate rug — but flagged that the H team appeared to be working with an active market maker given the concentrated token supply, and that all H tokens were sold on DEXs rather than centralized exchanges — an unusual pattern for an external attacker seeking liquidity.
In his second post, he sharpened the assessment: &#8220;The incident seems possibly staged. I am not buying the team&#8217;s story. It&#8217;s a convenient way for the active MM to have exited.&#8221; In his third post, he turned to the project&#8217;s broader credibility: &#8220;You choose to crime pump your token for weeks with zero fundamentals and think CT will blindly trust your story? Disclose your active MM agreements with the HK entity first.&#8221;
ZachXBT later walked back some of his concerns after additional analysis suggested the private key compromise and market-making issues may be unrelated — but the damage to the project&#8217;s credibility was already done.
The Context That Made ZachXBT&#8217;s Suspicions Land
The timing of the incident carries its own weight. The H token had surged approximately 875% above its 2026 low before the crash, per BanklessTimes — making it one of the year&#8217;s most extreme performers in a sector not short of extreme performers. A token unlock is scheduled for June 25 — two weeks away — a timeline that would make a staged exit before unlock a financially rational, if criminal, decision.
Three of the project&#8217;s four co-founders have documented histories involving lawsuits, financial fraud allegations, and management failures. Reports citing internal conversations suggested only approximately one million of the project&#8217;s nine million registered identities had completed biometric verification — the core metric on which Humanity&#8217;s entire value proposition rests.
This development marks a critical and deeply familiar moment for the nascent sector. A 90% token crash tied to a private key compromise that crypto&#8217;s most respected on-chain investigator publicly questions as staged — arriving weeks before a major token unlock, involving a project whose leadership carries documented red flags — is precisely the pattern that has defined the sector&#8217;s most damaging fraud cases.
Whether ZachXBT&#8217;s suspicions ultimately prove correct will depend on on-chain evidence still being gathered. What is already clear is that $32 million is gone and the community that trusted Humanity Protocol&#8217;s identity narrative is left with nothing but questions.

In a June 8 livestream titled “Why Cardano is the only Ecosystem that can run the world,” the Cardano founder argued that ADA’s long-term value depends on whether the network can reduce the world’s reliance on trusted third parties and eventually surpass Bitcoin.
Hoskinson framed the current market environment as more than a downturn in sentiment. “Right now the markets are not reflecting a bear market. They’re reflecting an existential crisis,” he said, arguing that investors are asking whether cryptocurrencies “even matter” as attention shifts toward AI, synthetic biology and other high-growth technologies.
Cardano’s Endgame Is Bigger Than Token Price
His answer was that crypto’s core function has been misunderstood. In Hoskinson’s view, the industry’s purpose is not simply to create currencies or blockchains, but to reduce the cost of trust in global commerce. He estimated that the current trust apparatus in regulated financial markets, including auditing, insurance, compliance, custody, reconciliation and other intermediating functions represents hundreds of billions of dollars in annual costs.
“The solution is actually something called verifiable reflexivity,” Hoskinson said. “It’s a property. Basically, something carries its own proof of being correct.”
That concept became the central thread of the livestream. Hoskinson used voting as a simplified example: rather than relying on a trusted third party to determine whether a ballot is valid, the ballot itself would carry proof that it is legitimate. Applied more broadly, he said, the same principle could extend across finance, identity, governance, proof of reserves, solvency, settlement and social coordination.
For Hoskinson, blockchains are the storage layer for these “verifiable reflexive transactions,” while smart contracts, zero-knowledge proofs and recursion provide the machinery to make them useful. Cryptocurrencies, in this framing, are not the end product. They are the economic resource that pays for the decentralized infrastructure required to maintain the system.
Hoskinson argued that this is where Cardano separates itself from rival networks. He identified four requirements: an engine of decentralization, the right accounting model, modular expansion of major functionality, and decentralized governance capable of specialization.
On decentralization, Hoskinson pointed to Ouroboros, describing it as the protocol architecture that allows ADA to scale while becoming more decentralized rather than less. He contrasted that with systems moving toward permissioned or compliance-gated models, which he said reintroduce trusted third parties into the settlement layer.
He also highlighted Cardano’s extended UTXO model, saying it preserves local determinism while enabling programmability. That matters, in his argument, because if Alice, Bob and the network do not share the same view of a transaction, they must rely on another actor to reconcile the difference. Cardano’s design, he said, is meant to avoid that dependency.
Hoskinson then turned to Hydra and “channel isomorphism,” which he described as allowing activity to happen in specialized domains and return to Cardano “as if you did it on Cardano.” He said this gives the network a path to scale for application-specific environments, including regulated real-world assets and other specialized commercial systems.
The third piece is modularity through partner chains. Hoskinson cited Midnight as the first example, arguing that Cardano can add functionality without making the base layer excessively complex or fragile. “When you’re modular, if that module fails, it doesn’t kill Cardano, which builds trust in the underlying system,” he said.
The most unfinished part, by his own description, is governance. Hoskinson said Cardano still needs stronger “executive function” and specialization, including budget, strategy and execution functions that can identify KPIs and allocate resources. He cited possible ecosystem metrics such as user-paid fees, active developers, retained revenue, stablecoin supply, active users, stake ratio, TVL, decentralization and adjusted transfer value.
Hoskinson placed that governance challenge inside a broader argument about Cardano’s ability to self-heal. He said Cardano must survive crises, including loss of confidence in its founder, to prove that it is more than a founder-led project. “You have to lose confidence in your founder for Cardano to get to the next level because if it survives that, it means it’s a self-healing system,” he said.
The livestream also included a direct long-term market claim. If Cardano succeeds in building a system for verifiable trust, Hoskinson argued, the cryptocurrency that fuels it could become “the currency of global trust.” He added that there is “an inevitability” that Cardano can win and “surpass Bitcoin” if the ecosystem continues building toward that objective.
At press time, ADA traded at $0.16.

In a June 8 post, Vito Tumas, writing for RippleX Developers, said the new focus follows an exploratory phase earlier this year with Common Prefix, which helped define the technical scope and strategy for applying formal methods to XRPL’s next generation of native financial primitives.
“This pivot represents a change in how we approach protocol-native feature development,” Tumas wrote. “Rather than a safety net, we will embed formal verification practices from day one, specifying and verifying complex new features. We are making provable protocol correctness a design property.”
Why This Matters For The XRP Ledger
The distinction matters because XRPL’s approach to DeFi differs from networks where lending, vaults and other financial logic typically live in separate smart contracts. According to RippleX, the XRP Ledger embeds its DeFi primitives directly into its core C++ architecture. That design can bring performance and integration benefits, but it also raises the cost of failure.
As the post framed it, a bug in an external smart contract may be isolated or replaced. A vulnerability in core Layer-1 C++ code can have ledger-wide implications. That is the security backdrop for the formal verification push around Single Asset Vault and the Lending Protocol, both of which introduce more complex native economic logic to XRPL.
RippleX said the complexity is not mainly about the volume of code. Instead, the central challenge lies in preserving numerical precision across multiple sequential operations, where small rounding issues must not be allowed to compound into larger accounting errors. In lending markets and vault systems, that kind of precision is not a secondary detail; it is part of the economic design.
“Formal verification is the natural tool for this class of problem,” Tumas wrote, describing it as a way to mathematically prove the correctness of these mechanisms and establish a standard for native DeFi primitives that follow.
The post contrasted formal verification with conventional testing. Unit tests, integration tests and system tests can validate specific scenarios that engineers anticipate, including expected user flows and adversarial interactions. The limitation, RippleX argued, is that engineers can only test the cases they think to write.
“For a DeFi protocol with near-infinite state space, that ceiling is low,” Tumas wrote. “Testing confirms the system behaves correctly in the scenarios it was asked about; it cannot speak to the ones it wasn’t.”
Formal verification changes the question. Rather than asking whether a given input produces the right output, the process builds an abstract model of intended protocol behavior in a precise language that computers can analyze. The key question becomes whether the model can behave incorrectly under any expressible condition.
RippleX also outlined how that model can connect back to the production implementation. An “oracle” derived from the proven model can serve as a source of truth against which the xrpld implementation is continuously checked. The same inputs are fed into both the oracle and the C++ implementation, and any deviation in output is flagged.
“In collaboration with Common Prefix, we are applying this methodology to the Single Asset Vault and the Lending Protocol,” Tumas wrote. “The modelling phase has already surfaced edge cases that standard tests missed, not as a sign of weakness, but as evidence that formal verification is working exactly as intended. These are early results, but they reflect a methodology with decades of proof behind it, now within reach of mainstream engineering.”
At press time, XRP traded at $1.17.

For some, this move was expected and means that the cryptocurrency’s price is actually going according to plan. One of those who sees this move as a good thing is crypto analyst Alex Mason, who expected this to happen and has revealed what the next steps are for the Bitcoin price.
The ‘Natural’ Trajectory For The Bitcoin Price
In Mason’s analysis, he explains what’s going on with the Bitcoin price and why it fell so much. With the bear market raging for over a year, the analyst explains that the recent crash means that the Bitcoin price is finally getting close to marking its bear market bottom.
With the most recent move, it means that the BTC price has now entered what the crypto analyst refers to as the final stage of the bear market. This is where the bear market forms and the crash to $59,000, followed by the recovery to $61,000, is actually confirmation that this is where the price is in this cycle.
Given that these two price points have played out, the crypto analyst predicts that the next move will be a more bullish one. This would mean a recovery to the $65,000 level. But this would not be the bullish confirmation that the market is waiting for.
Instead, the recovery will only set the stage for the next move, which would be a major crash to the $57,000 level. This would serve as initial support during the decline, but it will only end with a deeper correction into the $40,000s. Once the price finds support at $47,000, that is when the real move begins.
The move into the bullish territory from the $47,000 low is what is expected to carry the Bitcoin price back into 6-figure territory. At the top, the crypto analyst expects that the BTC price will reach $200,000, meaning an over 200% increase.
The crypto analyst has previously called out this move, using the Bitcoin Rainbow Chart to map out the movement. The previous analysis puts the Bitcoin top even higher than $200,000, suggesting that it will reach $400,000 at the top of the cycle in 2029.

Crypto Industry Pushes For CLARITY Act Vote
On Monday, advocacy group Stand With Crypto shared a coordinated letter with the Blockchain Association, the Crypto Council for Innovation (CCI), and The Digital Chamber, urging Senate leaders to schedule a vote for the CLARITY Act.
“Stand With Crypto and over 200 organizations sent a simple message to Senate leadership: it&#8217;s time for the Clarity Act,” the advocacy group wrote on X, affirming that the legislation “needs to cross the finish line.”
Signed by key industry players including Coinbase, Circle, Ripple, and Binance.US, the letter underscored the importance of the CLARITY Act’s bipartisan passage during the Senate Banking Committee’s markup session and urged the Senate to build on that momentum to enable members to advance durable market structure legislation.
This bill is set to establish a comprehensive federal framework for digital asset markets, the letter noted, clarifying regulatory responsibilities, creating workable registration pathways, maintaining protections for software developers, and bringing more crypto asset activity into responsible US markets.
Therefore, the CLARITY Act will allow Congress to keep innovation, jobs, investment, and market activity in the US while strengthening America’s role as the global leader in digital asset innovation.
Digital asset markets are global, growing, and central to the future of financial infrastructure. The question before Congress is whether that future will be built in the United States — under U.S. law, U.S. oversight, and American values — or continue moving to offshore jurisdictions with less transparency, weaker consumer protections, and limited accountability.
The crypto organizations argued that the Senate has the opportunity to “ensure the next generation of financial infrastructure is built, governed, and regulated in America,” and must “bring the Clarity Act to the Senate floor without delay.”
Similarly, the Blockchain Association and 160 former national security, intelligence, and law enforcement professionals. As reported by Bitcoinist, the advocacy group and the signatories urged Senators Thune and Schumer last week to move forward with the CLARITY Act.
The letter also argued that without a clear federal framework, crypto activity could continue shifting offshore to opaque markets, making it harder for US authorities to monitor and prosecute financial crimes.
CLARITY Act Faces Key Hurdles
The industry’s push follows last month’s approval of the Senate Banking Committee’s portion of the crypto bill, which was stalled for months over the stablecoin yield dispute. Now, a full Senate vote is expected in the coming weeks, with a potential passage by July 4, according to Patrick Witt, executive director of the President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets.
Nonetheless, the legislation will require approval by the House of Representatives, which passed its own version of the bill last year, suggesting that the two texts may need key reconciliation before it can move to President Donald Trump’s desk.
As a result, many believe that the odds of the CLARITY Act’s passage in 2026 have decreased. On Friday, Galaxy’s Head of Firmwide Research, Alex Thorn, sent a note to clients lowering his odds of passage from 75% to 60%.
He explained that the Senate calendar was “one of the biggest hurdles, and that picture has worsened,” noting that after the failed FISA reauthorization vote on Thursday, this week will likely be dominated by FISA-related business, potentially reducing the window to work on the CLARITY Act.
In addition, he highlighted the lack of news suggesting negotiations around the bill have advanced on outstanding issues, including ethics or illicit finance. Notably, the two Senate Democrats who voted to advance the CLARITY Act, Senators Ruben Gallego and Angela Alsobrooks, have warned that their future support will depend on an agreement on ethics guardrails for government officials dealing with crypto.
“I’m still optimistic, but the timing matters a lot now, and odds could shift wildly as the calendar progresses,” Thorn concluded.

Even so, two AI models analyzed by CCN suggest that the path ahead for BTC is likely to remain uneven, with multiple outcomes depending on how macroeconomic signals and market positioning develop.
Bitcoin Outlook Under ChatGPT
CCN’s report drew on ChatGPT’s four-scenario framework and assigned probabilities to each. In the base case, set at a 60% chance, the model expects a market that stays volatile but trends upward overall.
That outcome, according to ChatGPT, would be supported by continued exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows, eventual rate cuts, and expanding corporate treasury adoption. 
A deeper correction was given a 25% likelihood, with the model pointing to drivers such as sticky inflation, regulatory shocks, or recession fears. If those factors intensify, ChatGPT suggested BTC could retreat toward the $60,000 support zone, depending on how severe the downturn becomes.
The remaining probability split covered an upside and extreme tail risk. ChatGPT allocated 10% to a more aggressive scenario described as “an explosive bull run” far above the current consensus. It also assigned 5% to black swan events that could push the market in either direction. 
While ChatGPT presented a full set of scenarios, it also highlighted what it called its single most likely outcome. That “chaos case” is not framed as either a clean rally or a straightforward crash. 
Instead, ChatGPT expects multiple swings of 10% to 20% over days or weeks, with headlines repeatedly shifting between fresh bull-market claims and new crash warnings. 
The result, in the model’s view, would be turbulence—an environment where institutional adoption and macro uncertainty collide, producing sharp moves but no clear sustained direction for months.
Claude’s Path For BTC
Claude’s Bitcoin outlook, in contrast, was structured around macro timing and catalysts. It focused on liquidation dynamics and upcoming data points. 
From there, Claude identified two key decision windows for the next phase: May CPI, scheduled for June 10, and the FOMC dot plot on June 17. Based on what those signals could mean for rate cut expectations and broader liquidity conditions, Claude built three conditional Bitcoin scenarios.
In Claude’s first scenario, a second consecutive hot CPI print would change the outlook quickly. The model suggested this would likely erase remaining 2026 rate cut expectations, strengthen the US dollar, and drain liquidity from risk assets like Bitcoin. Claude rated this setup as the highest near-term risk option. 
It also included a price implication: a clean break below $60,000 could open the door to $55,000, with $52,000 in play if Strategy (previously MicroStrategy) continued trimming Bitcoin to fund preferred dividends.
Claude’s second scenario assumes an “in-line” CPI print. In that case, the model expected the Fed to stay cautious, with the median dot pointing to one cut. Bitcoin would likely grind sideways between $60,000 and $68,000 through the FOMC meeting, and Claude rated this as the most likely route if the data lands as expected.
The third Claude scenario looks for a relief-driven upside path. If CPI comes in cooler—below 3.0%, as Claude described—it would reprice the interest-rate curve toward more cuts, push the dollar lower, and potentially spark a relief rally. 
Claude projected a snap-back toward roughly $70,000 to $75,000 in that case, though it characterized the outcome as real but lower probability compared with the other paths.

Analyst Explains Weakness May Be Misleading</title><description><![CDATA[Bitcoin has reclaimed the $63,000 level after losing the $60,000 mark last Friday in a breakdown that forced the most significant reassessment of market structure since the February lows. The recovery is tentative but meaningful — and XWIN Research Japan has published an analysis that addresses the question now circulating across every corner of the market with a directness the data supports.
Have institutions abandoned Bitcoin?
At first glance, the evidence points toward yes. Bitcoin has fallen sharply from its cycle highs. ETF outflows have persisted across multiple sessions. Altcoins across the ecosystem are down more than 70% from their peaks. The institutional enthusiasm that defined the post-ETF approval era appears to have cooled into something considerably more cautious.
The CryptoQuant data tells a more nuanced story. Spot trading volume across centralized exchanges fell to $679 billion in April 2026 — the lowest level since October 2023. Compared to the late-2025 highs, trading activity has declined by approximately 67%. Perpetual futures volume has fallen alongside spot volume as speculative leverage exits the market. The data describes a market with a buyer problem rather than a seller problem — participants stepping back rather than actively distributing.
But institutions have not disappeared — and the distinction between reduced participation and full abandonment is the most important analytical question the current recovery attempt requires answering before any conclusions about Bitcoin&#8217;s next major direction can be drawn with confidence.
Prices Are Weak But Foundations Are Not Breaking
The XWIN Research Japan analysis identifies the institutional presence that the headline ETF outflow numbers obscure. CryptoQuant&#8217;s average trade size data shows that exchanges including Gate, Kraken, and OKX continue processing large institutional-sized transactions — professional capital that has not exited the market but has reduced its visible activity in the metrics most commonly cited as institutional demand proxies.
Exchange reserves confirm the same reading from a different angle. Bitcoin held across all exchanges has fallen to approximately 2.7 million BTC — near multi-year lows. Investors continue withdrawing coins rather than moving them toward the sell side. The long-term conviction that was built during the ETF era has not reversed into distribution. It has retreated into patience.
The convergence of traditional finance and crypto infrastructure adds the structural dimension that the price weakness cannot erase. Trading in gold, silver, oil, equities, and ETFs on crypto exchanges reached record levels in 2026 — digital asset platforms evolving into broader financial marketplaces that serve institutional needs well beyond Bitcoin speculation.
The honest summary the analysis delivers is balanced without being falsely optimistic. Prices are weak. Demand is weak. The current market is genuinely bearish and the data reflects that without softening it.
But institutions remain active in the transaction data. Exchange reserves continue their structural decline. Market infrastructure keeps expanding. The next cycle&#8217;s foundation is being assembled during the current cycle&#8217;s weakness — quietly, persistently, and in the data rather than in the price.
Bitcoin Defends February Lows As Bulls Fight To Rebuild Structure
Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize above the $63,000 level after last week&#8217;s violent breakdown briefly pushed price below $60,000. The rebound has relieved some immediate selling pressure, but the daily chart still reflects a market operating within a clear bearish structure.
The most important development is Bitcoin&#8217;s recovery from the $60,000-$62,000 support region, which coincides with the February lows and represents the strongest demand zone visible on the chart. Buyers stepped in aggressively after the breakdown, producing a sharp bounce that prevented a deeper decline toward the mid-$50,000 range. However, the recovery remains incomplete.
Price continues trading below the former support area between $64,000 and $66,000, highlighted on the chart as a key supply zone. This region previously acted as support during the March and April consolidation and is now likely to attract sellers on any further rally attempt. Reclaiming that range is the first requirement for bulls to regain control of the short-term trend.
The broader technical picture remains weak. Bitcoin is trading below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, all of which are sloping downward. The recent selloff was accompanied by a notable increase in volume, confirming strong participation behind the move rather than a low-liquidity decline.
The market appears to be building a relief rally from oversold conditions. As long as Bitcoin holds above $60,000, the possibility of a larger recovery remains intact. A failure to reclaim $64,000-$66,000, however, would leave the door open for another test of the recent lows.

Strategy Has Just Added To Both Bitcoin And USD Reserves
In a new post on X, Strategy co-founder and chairman Michael Saylor has shared details related to the latest Bitcoin acquisition completed by the treasury company. With this purchase, the firm has expanded its reserves by a total of 1,550 BTC.
The buy has come just a week after Strategy shocked the market with a sale of 32 BTC, ending a long accumulation streak since late 2020. While the scale of the sale was small, the fact that such a resolute buyer of the asset participated in selling was enough to affect sentiment in the sector, with BTC observing a major price drawdown.
The return to accumulation just one week later, however, has already completely reversed the effect that the sale had on Strategy&#8217;s holdings. Following this purchase, which cost about $101 million, the firm&#8217;s reserves have grown to 845,256 BTC, which is a new record.
In his usual Sunday X post, Saylor already foreshadowed a continuation of buying for Strategy, sharing the company&#8217;s BTC portfolio with the caption, &#8220;A good time to add more dots.&#8221;
Phong Le, the firm&#8217;s CEO, quote-reposted the post, noting, &#8220;Our corporate @Strategy is to increase net Bitcoin and Bitcoin per share over time. Rumors otherwise are just rumors.&#8221;
The latest Bitcoin purchase has also arrived with an addition to Strategy&#8217;s USD reserves. The firm established this reserve last year with the aim of creating a buffer that would allow timely dividend payments regardless of market conditions.
According to Saylor, the company has just added another $100 million to this reserve, taking its total value to $1 billion. Earlier, the reserve had a notably higher value than this, indicating that the firm has been relying on it to pay dividends amid the current market downturn.
The 8-K filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suggests that Strategy fueled the new Bitcoin buy with sales of its MSTR at-the-market (ATM) stock offering. The USD reserve has been funded similarly, although the filing noted that the $100 million expansion amount includes cash proceeds that are yet to be settled.
In some other news, the US Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) posted another week of net outflows last week, according to data from SoSoValue. A total of $1.72 billion left these funds with this red netflow spike.
From the chart, it&#8217;s visible that this was the fourth consecutive week of negative netflows for the Bitcoin spot ETFs.
BTC Price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is floating around $63,400, down nearly 12% in the last seven days.

The recovery is tentative but real — and CryptoQuant data has identified a development in the exchange reserve data that occurred during and immediately after the drop that changes how the current bounce should be interpreted.
Between June 4 and June 7, Ethereum exchange reserves across four major platforms declined by approximately 475,000 ETH in a synchronized move that was not isolated to any single venue. Binance reserves fell from 3.87 million ETH to 3.68 million ETH — a reduction of approximately 190,000 ETH. Bitfinex declined from 2.67 million ETH to 2.49 million ETH, shedding another 180,000 ETH over the same window. OKX recorded the sharpest percentage decline, with reserves falling from 424,000 ETH to 340,000 ETH between June 4 and June 7 — a drop of nearly 20% in three days. Gemini added to the picture, declining from 541,000 ETH to 520,000 ETH between June 5 and June 7.
Four exchanges. Four simultaneous reserve declines. A combined 475,000 ETH leaving exchange custody during the exact period that the price was testing its lowest levels. The synchronization is the signal — and what it describes about who was active at $1,520 is the most important analytical question the CryptoQuant data raises.
475000 ETH Left Four Exchanges in Three Days
The CryptoQuant analysis identifies synchronization as the element that elevates individual exchange declines into a market structure signal. A single exchange reducing reserves during a price drop can reflect routine portfolio management, custody migration, or any number of operational decisions specific to that venue. Four exchanges declining simultaneously — Binance, OKX, Bitfinex, and Gemini — across the same three-day window while Ethereum was testing its lowest levels points toward something more deliberate and more directional.
The combined 475,000 ETH reduction tightens the available liquidity on centralized platforms at precisely the moment the price was creating the conditions that historically attract accumulation. Whether the withdrawals reflect coordinated institutional positioning, individual large holders independently reaching the same conclusion about the $1,520 level, or a combination of both, the aggregate effect on exchange supply is identical — less ETH immediately available for sale on the venues where most spot trading occurs.
June 7 emerges from the analysis as a key structural date. The reserve declines concentrated around that window create a before-and-after reference point for tracking whether the tightening continues or reverses as Ethereum attempts to hold the $1,650 recovery.
The honest framing the analysis preserves matters. This is not an automatic bullish signal — reserve declines require strengthening demand to convert supply tightness into price appreciation. If ETH reserves continue falling while spot demand improves, Ethereum enters a thinner exchange liquidity environment where the same buying pressure produces larger price responses than it would against a fully stocked order book. That combination has not yet been confirmed. But the structural foundation for it was quietly assembled between June 4 and June 7.
Ethereum Attempts Recovery After Historic Support Breakdown
Ethereum is attempting to stabilize above $1,650 after suffering one of its sharpest declines of the year. The daily chart shows ETH rebounding from a local low near $1,520, but the broader technical structure remains decisively bearish. Most importantly, Ethereum has now broken below the February support zone around $1,800–$1,900, a level that acted as a major floor throughout the last four months.
The significance of this breakdown cannot be overstated. The February low marked the capitulation event that established the base for the subsequent recovery toward $2,400. By falling below that level, ETH has invalidated a key support structure and entered price territory not seen since the first quarter of the year.
Volume surged aggressively during the selloff, confirming strong participation from sellers rather than a low-liquidity decline. However, the current bounce is occurring alongside a noticeable reduction in selling volume, suggesting that the most intense phase of the liquidation may be easing for now.
From a trend perspective, ETH remains below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, all of which continue to slope downward. The first major resistance sits near $1,800, followed by the former support zone around $1,900. Until those levels are reclaimed, the recovery remains a relief rally within a larger downtrend.

In a post on X, Coutts said Bitcoin’s long-term technical backdrop is beginning to resemble the kind of structure that can precede a cycle bottom. “I&#8217;ll be the first to turn bullish on Bitcoin when the long-term technicals hit exhaustion and the trend turns,” he wrote. “I&#8217;ve argued Q2/Q3 would mark the bottom based on historical bear-market structures. Its playing out that way. The relative setup is approaching very attractive levels. The asset is in the long-term accumulation zone, imo.”
US Debt Refinancing Wall May Pressure Bitcoin
The issue, in Coutts’ view, is not simply Bitcoin’s chart. It is the macro plumbing around it.
He pointed to 2027, when the US faces $3.67 trillion in coupon maturities, a figure he said is 36% above the 2020–2025 average. The refinancing burden reflects the repricing of Covid-era debt issued when rates were near zero into a market where rates are now in the 4% to 5% range.
For Bitcoin and other risk assets, the concern is whether current liquidity conditions can absorb that level of issuance without stress in the Treasury market. Coutts argued that liquidity remains a constraint, particularly as capital has continued to rotate away from crypto since late 2025.
“Retail and insto flows have been rotating out of Bitcoin and crypto since Q4 2025,” he said. “Every marginal unit of liquidity has flowed into AI buildout assets. That makes sense. Capital flows to where it&#8217;s treated best. Right now, the capital allocation argument sits with AI equities and commodities. On-chain activity is back at multi-year lows.”
That rotation matters because Bitcoin’s bull phases have historically depended not only on internal crypto positioning, but also on broader liquidity expansion and risk appetite. Coutts’ point is that Bitcoin may be entering a structurally attractive zone at the same time liquidity remains scarce and competing asset classes are absorbing the available capital.
He also pushed back against the market’s focus on IPO issuance, arguing that the larger issue is the government refinancing burden and the ability of the financial system to intermediate it. “While the market fixates on IPO issuance,” he wrote, “what concerns me about all risk assets is that markets ex-crypto don&#8217;t seem bothered by the fact that current liquidity levels can&#8217;t easily absorb this refi supply.”
The complication is the Fed’s balance sheet. Coutts noted that Kevin Warsh wants a smaller balance sheet, adding another potential constraint if policymakers try to roll a large maturity wall through a system with reduced central bank liquidity.
“Yes, they will continue to stuff the short end and monetise through the banks,” Coutts said, adding that stablecoins are likely to play an “increasingly important role.” But he warned that rolling $3.67 trillion of maturities through a contracting Fed balance sheet “without a bond market accident would be among the most impressive acts of fiscal/monetary policy management in a generation.”
The implication for Bitcoin is nuanced. Coutts is not dismissing the bottoming case. He is arguing that the market may still need a macro trigger before the next sustained advance can take hold. In his framework, Bitcoin is likely to sense a shift in Fed-side liquidity before other assets, but that shift may not arrive until stress appears in Treasuries.
“I don&#8217;t see how they do it without far more Fed-side liquidity,” he wrote. “Bitcoin will detect it first. But there&#8217;s still an uncomfortable distance to travel. Treasuries will need to start misbehaving before the policy needle moves. That&#8217;s the tricky part.”
At press time, BTC traded at $63,196.

The report has sparked fears of a major price decline, raising investor concerns. It also drew sharp reactions from ETH community members, as debate ignited over whether the sell-off move indicated deeper market weakness or misinformation.
Ethereum Co-founder Dump Claims Shake The Market
Crypto investors and traders were rattled this week after reports claimed Buterin had sold a large portion of his ETH holdings. Market watchers reacted to a widely circulated post, with images alleging that he had dumped 110,000 ETH, worth $170 million, in just a few hours on June 5. 
The report also sparked intense concern, with one analyst arguing that if the creator of Ethereum was moving out of the market, investors should also consider doing the same. Another market participant, @CryptoNobler, compared the alleged 110,000 ETH sell-off to a transaction Buterin made three years ago. 
The analyst recalled that the Ethereum co-founder had sold all his crypto right before the market crashed, implying insider knowledge. This suggests that the analyst believes that a similar bearish move could be on the horizon.
Another analyst, Midas, reported that the claimed sell-off was one of the largest insider ETH exits he has ever seen. He noted that a sale of that level by a co-founder was a strong bearish signal for the crypto market.
Other social media posts amplified the story further, claiming that Buterin anticipated a major market drop and was allegedly selling his ETH holdings to avoid losses. These analysts are now warning investors to monitor the situation closely, framing it as an event that could influence investors&#8217; sentiment on Ethereum and the broader crypto ecosystem.
Community Pushes Back And Reveals Truth Behind Transaction
Despite the headlines, many in the crypto community quickly challenged the claims, describing the reports as misleading and widely exaggerated. On-chain analysis revealed that the Ethereum cofounder involved was not Buterin but actually Joseph Lubin. They revealed that Lubin had not sold off $170 million worth of ETH but had moved it into a decentralized finance (DeFi) vault. The transaction was designed to reduce liquidation risk on an existing loan.
Data also show that ETH was transferred through DSProxy contracts and used as collateral in the DeFi position, with roughly 178,000 WETH supplied and $103 million DAI borrowed against it. This is a standard liquidity management strategy in the DeFi space, allowing holders to maintain full exposure to ETH while borrowing stablecoins. Community members also confirmed that no ETH had entered the open market, and Lubin’s position still holds a net value of about $173 million.
After clarifying the situation, community members criticized the individual spreading the false narrative, noting that they were trying to attract attention by creating viral stories. Given the level of misinformation involved, they urged people to always verify transactions with reputable on-chain tools like Arkham Intelligence or Etherscan before amplifying co-founder dump stories.

New Bitcoin Whales Have Harvested Massive Losses Recently
As pointed out by CryptoQuant analyst Maartunn in a new post on X, New Whales on the Bitcoin blockchain have been participating in loss-taking recently. &#8220;Whales&#8221; are broadly defined as investors holding more than 1,000 BTC in their wallets, excluding entities such as miners and exchanges.
Whales can be divided into two cohorts on the basis of holding time: New Whales and Old Whales. The former, also known as Short-Term Holder (STH) Whales, include all whale-sized addresses that purchased their coins within the past 155 days. Similarly, the Old or Long-Term Holder (LTH) Whales are made up of the large investors who have held past the five-month cutoff.
Statistically, the longer an investor holds onto their coins, the less likely they are to sell them in the future. As such, the New Whales with their relatively short holding time are considered to represent the weak-minded side of the market, while the Old Whales represent the resolute side.
The behavior of these investors has been in line with their reputation during the recent price plunge, as the chart for the Bitcoin realized profit/loss shared by Maartunn shows.
From the graph, it&#8217;s apparent that the whales as a whole have realized a significant amount of losses in response to the bearish price action. The distribution of the realized loss, however, has heavily skewed toward the New Whales (shaded in blue in the chart).
In total, the STH Whales took $1.77 billion in losses during the past week. This is a notable amount and suggests that the big-money investors who entered the market recently have panic-capitulated in the crash. Meanwhile, the LTH Whales have kept their loss-taking contained, at least for now.
It only remains to be seen how the Bitcoin price will develop in the near future and how these whales will react to it. The price drawdown so far took the cryptocurrency to a low of $59,000, which isn&#8217;t at too much of a distance from the Realized Price, a metric tracking the cost basis of the average investor on the network.
As the analyst pointed out in another X post, BTC&#8217;s Realized Price is currently located at $53,630.
Bitcoin hasn&#8217;t gone below the Realized Price in this cycle even once, but it&#8217;s possible that if the current bearish trajectory continues, a retest could occur. &#8220;Every dip below that level has historically been a no-brainer DCA zone for long-term investors,&#8221; noted Maartunn.
BTC Price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $63,300, down more than 13% over the past week.

During this highly negative phase, the SOL network has persistently seen positive activity across its ecosystem, with some activity reaching unprecedented levels.
Returning Users Fuel Solana’s Network Growth
Solana network continues to demonstrate robust strength in the face of heightened volatility across the altcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market. Recent data shows that Solana is witnessing a significant growth in its network user base as the number of returning participants increases at an accelerated rate.
Zensei unveiled this network growth on the X platform, which has notably captured the attention of the community, with many expressing optimism toward the altcoin. The development suggests that current users are also becoming more active throughout its expanding array of services and applications, in addition to continuing to interact with the ecosystem. 
In the midst of criticism, SOL is steadily recording more than 1.7 million users, who are returning to the network every day. Such a strong rise in returning users is often seen as a crucial indicator of the network’s health, indicating long-term interest rather than short-term speculation.
As seen on the Solana Returning Users chart, these players recently surged to their highest level since February this year. Zensei has referenced this growth to continued confidence among these users because more people are sticking around instead of just trying to exit the network.
Furthermore, the expert has highlighted SOL network’s superiority against other major chains across the crypto sector. In his view, there is nowhere else in the crypto sector where millions of users keep showing up every day as Solana does on a daily basis.
Why SOL Could Lead The Next Wave Of Finance Ahead Of Ethereum
In another X post, Zensei revealed that the gap between Solana and Ethereum keeps getting wider, with SOL dominating Ethereum in several key areas. Data shared by the expert shows that SOL has surpassed Ethereum in both Perp volume and Decentralized Exchange (DEX) aggregator volume over the past week.
During the period, SOL processed over $19.0 billion in perp volume compared to Ethereum, which saw about $10.1 billion, representing a lead of nearly 89%. On the DEX aggregator side, SOL captured approximately $10.2 billion in volume compared to the $4.8 billion of Ethereum, indicating a lead of roughly 115%.
After this robust disparity in growth between the two leading networks, the expert is confident that Solana will lead the future wave of finance ahead of Ethereum. This noteworthy SOL performance demonstrates the network&#8217;s growing usefulness and capacity to handle rising activity levels.
CoinMarketMap&#8217;s data is showing that the SOL price is trading at $65, demonstrating a nearly 2% increase in the last 24 hours. However, trading volume is moving in a different direction, dropping by more than 3% over the past day.

Bankman-Fried’s Pardon Bid
Bloomberg reported that Bankman-Fried submitted an application to the Office of the Pardon Attorney within the US Department of Justice (DOJ), seeking what the site describes as a “pardon after completion of sentence.” 
Later on Monday, during an exclusive conversation with FOX Business correspondent Susan Li, Bankman-Fried said he “absolutely” wants a presidential pardon. When Li asked whether he would expect to seek one from the White House, he agreed. 
“Absolutely,” he said, adding that the decision ultimately rests with the president rather than him. Asked if his family or people he has been in contact with are lobbying the administration on his behalf, the FTX co-founder declined to confirm, stating, “I can’t speak for them.”
In March 2024, Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison after a jury found him guilty on two counts of wire fraud and five counts of conspiracy tied to the fall of his crypto empire. 
The court also concluded that FTX customers lost $8 billion, equity investors associated with FTX lost $1.7 billion, and lenders to the Alameda Research hedge fund—Bankman-Fried’s firm—lost $1.3 billion.
FTX Token Rallies 45%
Despite the conviction and long sentence, Bankman-Fried has continued to argue that the case against him was unfair. He told Li that he believes FTX customers have ultimately been repaid and pointed to improvements in bankruptcy outcomes that he said have been helped, at least in part, by a recovery in cryptocurrency markets. 
“I didn’t steal user funds either,” he said, adding that customers have been repaid, “now 170% or so on their deposits.” He described the situation as one of the few cases where the platform was reportedly over-collateralized—meaning customers were more than fully made whole—yet he said prosecutors still pursued criminal charges.
Notably, the move sparked a major surge in the price of FTX’s native token, FTT. On Monday, it recorded a massive 45% rally, reaching around $0.33 by the time this piece was written. However, the token’s recovery still leaves it 99.5% below its all-time high of $84, which was reached at the peak of the exchange’s operations.

The prediction comes as Bitcoin has climbed back above $63,000 in early Monday trading hours, helping the broader crypto market start the week on a positive note.
Why the Analyst Is Turning Bullish On XRP
In a recent X post, Crypto analyst Bird described the current market setup as a potential “rise of the phoenix” moment for the Ripple coin. According to him, several factors are coming together that could boost the altcoin’s price.
One of those factors is improving regulatory clarity around the crypto industry with the CLARITY Act currently awaiting Senate approval. Bird also pointed to the growing use of stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets, which are creating new opportunities for blockchain networks.
For context, data from RWA.xyz showed that stablecoin supply on the XRPL has continued increasing, reaching around $888 million, a 78% increase over the past month. 
Bird also noted that Ripple continues to focus on partnerships and real-world use cases. While the XRP price has not fully reflected these developments yet, he believes they are helping build a stronger foundation for future growth.
Another reason for optimism is Bitcoin dominance. When Bitcoin&#8217;s share of the overall crypto market falls, investors often move money into altcoins. Bird believes this change could benefit Ripple coin in the coming months.
Because of these factors, the analyst said there is a strong chance of a major price move higher. He even suggested that XRP could experience a &#8220;God candle,&#8221; a term traders often use to describe a sudden, powerful price surge.
XRP ETFs Continue To See Inflows
Ripple’s coin has shown strength in the ETF market despite recent market weakness. Over the past week, Bitcoin ETFs recorded outflows of $1.72 billion, while Ethereum ETFs saw outflows of $168 million. In contrast, XRP ETFs attracted inflows of $2.62 million. Several analysts view this as a positive sign of investor interest.
Bird is not the only analyst expecting a recovery. Crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO recently said that the coin is still following what he calls the &#8220;Blue roadmap,&#8221; a market structure he has been tracking for some time.
According to EGRAG, short-term price swings do not change the bigger picture. He believes the coin’s overall trend remains intact as long as the market continues to follow this roadmap.
At the time of writing, the XRP price was trading between $1.12 and $1.14, up about 1% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap data. Meanwhile, Bitcoin has recovered above $63,000 after losing around 13% of its value during the previous week.

Yuga Labs CEO Michael Figge (@mfigge) announced the successful operation on X, publishing a full inventory of the rescued assets now held in the company&#8217;s custody: 29 Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, four Mutant Apes, one Bored Ape Kennel Club token, two CryptoPunks, one Azuki, two Elementals, 26 Captains, one Moonbird, and two Doodles. &#8220;We&#8217;ve just finished a whitehat operation on an exploit discovered in Flooring Protocol,&#8221; Figge wrote, noting that Yuga Labs VP of Blockchain 0xQuit (@0xQuit) led the on-chain recovery effort.
The operation was funded through GrailsOTC, Yuga Labs&#8217; over-the-counter trading desk — which Figge said he &#8220;quietly instructed&#8221; to front the capital and NFTs needed to pull the at-risk assets out of the protocol before additional bad actors could act on the same vulnerability. The company plans to return all 68 NFTs to their original owners once a technical fix has been deployed and verified.
How The Crypto Exploit Worked
The mechanics of the attack, explained in a technical thread by 0xQuit on X, reveal a sophisticated vulnerability embedded in Flooring Protocol&#8217;s core accounting logic. A malicious actor turned a dust amount of WETH — a negligible quantity — into a near-infinite fpToken balance by exploiting an edge case in how the protocol handled token ownership records. The attacker then used the inflated balance to drain Flooring pools, with a subsequent opportunist scooping up the now-depleted pool tokens and exchanging them for the underlying NFTs.
The deeper vulnerability, per 0xQuit&#8217;s post, came from packed ownership and indexing logic — a technical design choice where a malicious token ID could make ownership verification checks pass while downstream accounting recorded a different result entirely, creating what he described as &#8220;ghost ownership.&#8221; An unchecked balance update then caused an arithmetic underflow, handing the attacker a balance far larger than legitimately entitled. Once that inflated balance was in place, token prices could be pushed near zero and liquidity extracted from the pool at will.
After reviewing the initial attack path, Yuga Labs&#8217; team identified a second, broader vulnerability that exposed additional NFT pools not yet touched by the original attacker. That discovery triggered the emergency whitehat operation — the team moved to pull all at-risk assets before another actor could find and exploit the same second path independently.
The Protocol Behind The Incident
Flooring Protocol&#8217;s architect, @0xFreeLunch, acknowledged on X that the vulnerability originated in gas-saving bit-level code design — a class of optimization where developers reduce computational costs by packing multiple values into shared storage slots. Despite multiple security reviews, the flaw went undetected, per his post. The admission is notable: gas optimization trade-offs that appear safe in isolation can create exploitable surface area when token IDs fall outside expected ranges.
Flooring Protocol had already been winding down its consumer-facing NFT services since September 2025 — the platform advised FPv2 token holders to redeem assets and exit fractional positions before October of that year. Yet its smart contracts remained live with user assets inside, creating exactly the kind of legacy exposure that attackers increasingly target in aging DeFi infrastructure.
0xQuit warned on X that some NFTs remain under attacker control and urged all users to avoid depositing additional NFTs into Flooring Protocol until a verified fix is deployed. CryptoPunks — two of which were among the rescued assets — currently carry a floor price of approximately 32.7 ETH, or roughly $54,612 per token, while BAYC NFTs sit around 9.16 ETH, per CoinGecko data.
This development marks a pivotal and unusual moment for the nascent sector&#8217;s approach to DeFi security. A blue-chip NFT company deploying its own balance sheet to rescue third-party assets from an active exploit — unprompted, at speed, and at cost — is a form of ecosystem responsibility the space rarely sees. The question the industry will now ask is how many other aging protocols still carry similar vulnerabilities in their legacy contracts, waiting for the attacker who finds the second path before anyone else does.

Last week, Bitcoin plummeted below $60,000 for the first time since October 2024, marking a new low for this cycle. While overall market sentiment has weighed heavily on the cryptocurrency, several other key factors are driving the recent declines. The decline in Spot Bitcoin ETFs has put additional pressure on BTC, while ongoing geopolitical tensions have heightened investor uncertainty. If these pressures fail to ease soon, Bitcoin could face further losses, with analysts warning of a steeper decline toward $50,000. 
BTC Price Crashes As ETFs See A String Of Outflows
Bitcoin has fallen more than 18% over the past 14 days, according to CMC data, marking a staggering loss of value for the blue-chip cryptocurrency. BTC is currently trading above $62,000 after its recent crash toward $59,000 last week, signaling a short-term rebound. Despite the slight recovery, bearish conditions still weigh heavily on the price, with the market showing no clear signs of a rebound.
Notably, one of the major drivers of the ongoing BTC decline is the massive outflows observed by Spot Bitcoin ETFs. As of June 3, 2026, Bitcoin ETFs have recorded their 13th consecutive outflow, marking the longest red streak in their entire history. The extent of this decline shows how bearish the market has become and how cautious investors still are.
SoSoValue reports that from May 15 to June 3, US Bitcoin Spot ETFs bled heavily, recording staggering outflows of more than $4.37 billion in less than two weeks. Interestingly, Bitcoin ETFs ended the record 13-day streak on June 5 with a slim $3.05 million net inflow. However, the gains did not carry over to the next day, as the ETFs saw an even steeper outflow of $325.69 million on June 5. This indicates that investors are inherently fearful, especially as the market remains uncertain about BTC&#8217;s next price direction. 
IBIT Dominates Bitcoin ETF Outflows
BlackRock’s IBIT, the largest spot Bitcoin ETF, has been the clear leader driving the massive ETF outflows. IBIT accounted for roughly $3.3 billion of the $4.37 billion in outflows, about 75% of the total over 13 days. Fidelity&#8217;s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund came in second with $456 million in outflows over the streak. Meanwhile, Grayscale’s GBTC logged $303 million in outflows, which is significant but still far behind the other two products.
Overall, BlackRock&#8217;s dominance in the Bitcoin ETF market means it also bears the brunt when institutions pull back. Grayscale&#8217;s GBTC, which has been bleeding assets since its trust conversion due to its higher 1.5% fee, was actually a relatively minor contributor this time around. This long string of outflows has been the major driver behind BTC’s latest price declines.

This Key Metric Is Offering New Clues On The Matter</title><description><![CDATA[With heightened bearish pressure continuing to impact Dogecoin’s price action, investors are now discussing and showing concerns about when the meme coin could bottom out. However, a crucial signal has recently emerged from a key metric, suggesting that DOGE’s market bottom may be taking shape.
Dogecoin’s Price Bottoming Signal Emerges
Dogecoin may witness a slight bounce on Sunday, but its broader outlook remains highly bearish, stifled by ongoing volatility in the crypto market. As investors look for indications that Dogecoin might be nearing a turning point, one on-chain metric is gaining attention for its clues about the meme coin’s current phase.
These clues are emerging from the Dogecoin Cumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) metric. After thoroughly examining the metric, Joao Wedson, the founder of the Alphractal on-chain platform, announced that DOGE is in a price bottoming phase. According to the expert, this metric has been one of the most accurate throughout the meme coin’s history. This is because every time DOGE approached 1 on the chart, or spent just a few days below it, major price bottoms often follow.
While the phase matures, Wedson highlighted that the latest bottoming signal will be triggered whenever Dogecoin falls below the $0.08 level. Once the meme coin drops below this level, this development will be seen as an ideal entry point, as the smartest investors are expected to start accumulating a lot of DOGE.
As a result, the expert has advised investors to start accumulating, especially during the capitulation phase, and hold the meme coin for a long time. In the midst of rising volatility, Dogecoin could reach a price bottom before Bitcoin.
Wedson is confident DOGE might bottom out in June because the meme coin often marks a local bottom in the month in bear market periods. Meanwhile, BTC typically reaches a price bottom at the end of Q3 or Q4 during bear market phases.
Past Price Trend Is Set To Repeat
DOGE may bottom out in June, but its price action in the month is not going to be a smooth one. In the monthly timeframe, Dogecoin has dropped down to a long-term macro support level, which has been present since 2017. 
As a result, Namtoshi Dogemoto, an investor and crypto analyst, has predicted that the meme coin may experience some volatility in June as it did in the 2020 market cycle. During the period, DOGE dropped below this support on multiple occasions and sprinted back up before the end of the month. With a similar trend emerging, DOGE is likely to mirror the price action of June 2020. 
Currently, the expert is positioned below the macro support level, and a repetition of this price action could result in massive gains. “I didn&#8217;t think we would visit down here, but it&#8217;s a great opportunity to load up now,” Dogemoto added.
Ali Charts shared that DOGE has reached a closely monitored target of $0.0883, with the lower boundary of a parallel channel now being tested. As long as this support holds, the expert believes recovery toward $0.1019 and $0.1156 could unfold. However, a breakdown is likely to expose the next major supply zone near $0.067.

The case, published on the Supreme People&#8217;s Procuratorate&#8217;s official website under the headline &#8220;107 Bitcoins Disappeared,&#8221; centers on a defendant identified only by the surname Zhang. According to the court documents, Zhang obtained the victim&#8217;s cryptocurrency wallet recovery phrase and used it to transfer and sell 107 Bitcoin belonging to the victim — an act the Qingdao prosecutors successfully prosecuted as theft of property under Chinese criminal law, per the SPP&#8217;s official account of the case.
Zhang was sentenced to ten years and nine months in prison and fined 100,000 yuan — approximately $13,800 — per the official ruling. The value of the stolen property was calculated based on the 660,000 yuan, or roughly $91,000, that Zhang received from liquidating the Bitcoin after the theft.
The prosecution&#8217;s core legal argument was that Bitcoin satisfies the statutory definition of property under Chinese criminal law because it holds demonstrable economic value and can be exclusively controlled by its owner — two criteria that define protectable property interests under the Chinese legal framework.
The Contradiction At The Center Of Chinese Crypto Law
The Qingdao ruling places Beijing&#8217;s legal system in an uncomfortable but increasingly documented position. China&#8217;s September 2021 blanket ban — jointly issued by ten regulatory bodies including the People&#8217;s Bank of China — declared all cryptocurrency transactions illegal, effectively prohibiting trading, exchanges, and mining across the country.
In May 2026, China expanded that crackdown to explicitly cover stablecoins, RWA tokenization, and offshore yuan-pegged digital currencies, with a two-year rectification deadline for all unauthorized cross-border financial channels.
Yet Chinese courts have simultaneously and consistently affirmed Bitcoin&#8217;s status as protected property in criminal proceedings. A Shanghai court ruled in 2024 that crypto ownership is legal under Chinese law, per the South China Morning Post. The Shanghai Second Intermediate People&#8217;s Court previously described Bitcoin as a &#8220;unique and non-replicable&#8221; asset with clear financial attributes.
And now the Supreme People&#8217;s Procuratorate — China&#8217;s highest prosecutorial authority — has published the Qingdao case as a model ruling, signaling to prosecutors nationwide that this is the correct framework for handling Bitcoin theft cases.
Why The SPP Published This Case
Publication by the Supreme People&#8217;s Procuratorate is not routine reporting. Cases featured on the SPP&#8217;s official platform are selected as guidance for lower-level prosecutors and courts handling similar matters across China&#8217;s 34 provincial-level jurisdictions.
By highlighting the Qingdao case, Beijing&#8217;s highest prosecutorial body is effectively issuing an instruction: when Bitcoin is stolen, prosecute it as property theft and value it at market rates. That instruction operates regardless of — and in direct tension with — the trading and transaction ban that nominally makes Bitcoin illegal to hold or transfer in China.
The legal architecture this creates is genuinely novel. China simultaneously tells its citizens they cannot buy, sell, or trade Bitcoin — and tells its courts that if someone steals it, the full weight of criminal law will protect the victim&#8217;s property rights. The nascent sector has never encountered a major jurisdiction that bans its use and protects its ownership simultaneously at the highest legal level.
This development marks a pivotal and legally complex moment for Bitcoin&#8217;s global status. A ruling published by China&#8217;s Supreme People&#8217;s Procuratorate confirming Bitcoin as legally protected criminal property — in a country that officially bans its use — is not a minor jurisdictional footnote. It is a signal that even the world&#8217;s most restrictive crypto regime cannot fully escape the legal reality of what Bitcoin is.

The report from the US Department of Labor shows a resilient labor market, but it also complicated the liquidity that risk assets had been trying to price in, leaving Bitcoin exposed at a time when confidence across crypto is already very low.
May Jobs Report Lands Very Strong
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Friday that US employers added 172,000 jobs in May, more than double the consensus estimate of 85,000 from economists polled by LSEG. 
The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, which would have been enough to rattle rate-cut expectations. Interestingly, there were revisions to the job numbers in prior months, which added a further 93,000 jobs to the March and April tallies combined, with March revised up to 214,000 and April revised up to 179,000.
The print was the second-strongest in over a year, and investment markets adjusted immediately. Following the release, Polymarket increased the probability of a Federal Reserve rate increase before year-end to 53%, while the CME FedWatch tool shows a 42.7% chance that rates will be higher by December. As it stands, prediction markets are pricing roughly a 68.8% probability of zero rate cuts in 2026. 
Goldman Sachs Asset Management&#8217;s Lindsay Rosner, head of multi-sector fixed income investing, called the report a Payroll Blowout, and said the Fed has gained more and more confidence that it does not need to worry about the labor market.
Bitcoin&#8217;s Liquidity Is Braking Down
The Kobeissi Letter captured the scale of the reaction by noting that the S&amp;P 500 erased nearly $2 trillion in market cap just hours after what it described as the third-strongest US jobs report in 18 months. The same post also noted that Bitcoin is now down more than 50% from its October 2025 record high, with the bear market gaining momentum this week and crushing risk appetite.
The brief crash below $60,000 over the weekend also showed that traders are reacting to a broader message that liquidity is drying up. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have been dealing with heavy outflows in recent weeks, reducing one of the most important sources of marginal demand that supported the cryptocurrency during its rally in early May.
However, Bitcoin bulls may still have one reason to stay hopeful. Bitcoin slipped through its 200-week moving average over the weekend, which currently sits at $61,000, leading to its first major interaction with the level since 2022. 
Data from Coinglass shows that Bitcoin has historically found bear-market bottoms around the 200-week moving average across major cycles between 2015 and 2020. The last time Bitcoin tested this line was in June 2022, making the latest breach, almost four years later, a notable moment in the current downturn.
Standard Chartered&#8217;s global head of digital assets research, Geoff Kendrick, told clients on June 4 that the bear market may be in its final stages, noting that the recent painful week of price action might be the buying zone we all wanted when Bitcoin returns to $100,000 and Ethereum returns to $4,000.

The warning comes as the bank turns more cautious on crypto, citing weaker capital flows, bitcoin’s break below estimated production cost, and reduced confidence in US crypto legislation passing this year.
In a report titled Alternative Investments Outlook and Strategy, JPMorgan analysts led by managing director Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou said Strategy’s small bitcoin sale had an outsized signaling effect. The sale was described as “symbolic and voluntary,” intended to demonstrate flexibility and commitment to preferred stockholders. But according to the analysts, it still “spooked” markets because it raised a central question for holders of both bitcoin and Strategy securities: whether the company could meet dividend obligations without selling more of its BTC stack.
Strategy Needs Cash To Calm Bitcoin Fears
Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, has become the dominant corporate bitcoin treasury vehicle under Saylor, making its balance-sheet decisions a market-wide signal. JPMorgan said the company’s current dollar reserves cover only around 6.3 months of dividend payments, a level the analysts believe may be too thin for investors who are already watching the firm’s leverage, preferred stock structure and bitcoin exposure closely.
“In our opinion a rebuilding of the company&#8217;s dollar reserves might be needed to restore confidence and reduce investor concerns that the company would sell more bitcoins to cover dividend payments,” the analysts said.
The concern is not that Strategy has abandoned its bitcoin acquisition strategy. JPMorgan still expects the company to keep buying BTC. But the firm’s funding mix, dividend burden and limited cash buffer have become more relevant after the 32 BTC sale showed that bitcoin disposals, however small, are now part of the market’s risk calculus.
Strategy created a $1.44 billion US dollar reserve in December to safeguard dividend payments on its preferred stock and service interest on outstanding debt. JPMorgan said the company now needs to clarify how it plans to meet roughly $1.7 billion in annual dividend payments, particularly if bitcoin remains under pressure.
Saylor, meanwhile, signaled the opposite direction on Sunday, posting on X: “A good time to add more dots.” Strategy currently holds 843,706 bitcoin at an average cost of $75,699. At current prices near $62,000, that position implies a paper loss of roughly $11.5 billion.
JPMorgan said that if Strategy maintains its year-to-date pace of acquisitions, the company could buy around $32 billion of bitcoin in 2026, up from the bank’s prior estimate of $30 billion last month. That would compare with roughly $22 billion of bitcoin purchases in both 2025 and 2024.
The bank’s broader crypto outlook has also shifted. In February, JPMorgan was “overweight” and “positive” on digital assets for 2026, expecting institutional flows to drive the market higher. Now, the analysts have turned cautious, pointing to weaker inflows and a more uncertain regulatory backdrop.
A stronger second half for crypto, they said, depends on two conditions: Strategy explaining how it will cover dividends, and Congress passing the US crypto market structure bill, known as the Clarity Act. JPMorgan now sees less than a 50% chance of that legislation passing this year, citing a narrowing window ahead of the US midterm elections, continued debate around stablecoin yield, and remaining political hurdles.
The analysts also noted that bitcoin has spent much of the year below their estimated production cost. Their central estimate fell from $90,000 at the start of the year to $77,000 as hashrate and mining difficulty declined, before rebounding to around $87,000. Historically, they said, production cost has acted as a “soft floor” for bitcoin, making the current price near $62,000 another reason for caution.
Capital flows tell a similar story. JPMorgan estimates total digital asset inflows at around $22 billion year-to-date, implying an annualized pace of roughly $52 billion, about half the level recorded in 2025. The estimate includes crypto fund flows, CME futures positioning, crypto venture capital fundraising and corporate treasury purchases, including Strategy’s bitcoin acquisitions.
Despite the cautious stance, JPMorgan left room for a reversal in sentiment. The analysts said the current weakness could prove a “bullish contrarian signal going forward.” Still, they concluded that a constructive second half “would be conditional on Strategy clarifying its strategy [for] meeting dividend payments of $1.7 billion a year and on the approval of the US market structure legislation for which we now see less than 50% chance.”
At press time, BTC traded at $63,071.

Grayscale CLO Points To On-Chain Odds</title><description><![CDATA[Grayscale Chief Legal Officer Craig Salm has suggested that Zcash’s own shielded user base may be offering a more meaningful signal on exploit risk than external prediction markets. His comments came after Polymarket opened a market on whether Zcash’s Orchard pool vulnerability, publicized on June 4, is ultimately confirmed to have been exploited on mainnet.
The Polymarket contract, opened on June 5, currently shows a 10% chance of confirmation, with $14,306 in volume. The market asks whether the Orchard pool vulnerability was exploited before it was fixed, with resolution dependent on explicit confirmation from Shielded Labs, the Zcash Foundation, or the Zcash Open Development Lab, known as ZODL. It can also resolve “Yes” if there is an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting that a qualifying exploit occurred.
How Likely Was Zcash Exploited?
Salm’s argument was not that the Polymarket odds are wrong. Rather, he pointed to a different group of participants with a much more direct financial incentive to assess the risk: users who still hold funds inside the Orchard pool.
“Perhaps a better ‘prediction market’ is the Zcash Orchard pool itself,” Salm wrote on X. “These are the users with potentially billions of dollars at stake in whether the vulnerability was exploited, since they’re most directly affected if excess ZEC claims exist in Orchard and the turnstile limit is reached. Yet Orchard balances appear to have declined by only ~5% since the exploit was disclosed, which may also simply reflect users preparing to move to a new shielded pool.”
That framing shifts attention away from prediction-market pricing and toward observed user behavior. If Orchard users believed there was a high probability that invalid or unbacked ZEC had been created inside the pool, the economic incentive to exit would be substantial. Instead, according to Salm, balances appear to have fallen by only around 5% since disclosure.
He cautioned, however, that the data does not prove the vulnerability was unexploited. “Not proof of anything, but an interesting signal from the users with strong economic incentive to assess the risk correctly,” he added.
Notably, Polymarket market is not simply asking whether a serious bug existed. Its rules are narrower. A “Yes” outcome requires confirmation that the June 4 Orchard vulnerability was exploited on Zcash mainnet before the fix was activated by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET. Qualifying evidence includes confirmation that the bug was exploited, that extra or unauthorized ZEC was created through the vulnerability, or that a future upgrade, migration, audit, turnstile-accounting process, or official investigation reveals excess or invalid ZEC attributable to this specific issue.
New or separate exploits after the original vulnerability was fixed are explicitly excluded. That means the market is effectively pricing the odds of a specific historical exploit being confirmed by official sources or broad credible reporting, not the broader question of whether Zcash faces future shielded-pool risk.
Additional on-chain commentary from CipherScan pointed in a similar direction. The analytics account said 380,000 ZEC had been deshielded, but argued that the headline number overstated actual exit pressure. According to CipherScan, only half of the deshielded amount had moved, while 45% remained parked at transparent addresses.“
Only 21% of the deshielded ZEC actually left Zcash,” CipherScan wrote, putting that figure at 82,000 ZEC, or 1.6% of the shielded pool and 0.5% of total supply. It also said 47,000 ZEC went to exchanges, describing that as “the total sell pressure from Orchard holders,” equal to 0.28% of supply against a reported $6.7 billion market capitalization.
CipherScan also noted that roughly 118,000 ZEC was shielded during the same period, arguing that even during peak concern, some users were still moving into shielded balances rather than only exiting them. “Holders parked. They didn’t panic,” the account wrote. “The selling was traders who were already on exchanges. Security is hardened and will be even more so.”
At press time, ZEC traded at $425.

This move triggered a development that has not happened in a long time, as ETH lost its second-place position in the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap.
Tether’s USDT Coming For Ethereum’s Crown
For the longest time, Ethereum has been able to maintain its stronghold on the second position on the list of largest cryptocurrencies by market cap, even through brutal bear markets. But last week’s crash changed something as another cryptocurrency was able to take this position, even for a short time.
According to data, as the Ethereum price plunged toward $1,500, its market cap fell behind that of Tether’s USDT. The stablecoin was able to briefly hold second place as it remained above $186 billion, while ETH&#8217;s market cap dropped below.
This wasn’t for long as the recovery saw ETH reclaim its position shortly after. However, this move has shown the perilous position that Ethereum is in as its price has struggled in the market. Even now, USDT remains hot on Ethereum’s heels, with less than $15 billion being the difference between their market caps. Also, the likes of BNB and XRP have previously been said to be potential future threats to ETH&#8217;s crown.
Another Loss For ETH Toward Rivals
Not only did the Ethereum market cap fall below that of Tether’s USDT, but there is also the fact that its trading volume is being surpassed by a rival. According to an X post shared by crypto analyst Diana, the Bitcoin and Ethereum trading volumes were surpassed by XRP on the Upbeat crypto exchange.
This move suggests the movement of investors toward other investments as the market leaders continue to struggle. It is also happening during a time of large sell-offs, as liquidity continues to be drained from the crypto market at staggering rates.
The Ethereum price has since recovered above $1,600 as Bitcoin reclaimed $62,000. However, the hold on the support remains shaky, especially as the market opens up for another trading week on Monday.

All Eyes On Licensing
The requirement came out of a conference held in Hanoi on Friday, where officials from the State Securities Commission, the State Bank of Vietnam, and the Ministry of Public Security gathered alongside banks, securities firms, and blockchain industry groups to discuss the country&#8217;s path toward formal crypto regulation.
Officials said all trading would eventually have to go through licensed virtual asset service providers, though investors would still be allowed to keep assets in personal wallets. Foreign investors would be permitted to open accounts and take part in the market, while domestic participation would initially be limited to those already holding crypto assets.
Bui Hoang Hai, vice chairman of the State Securities Commission, said Vietnam is in a critical phase of building a legal framework for digital finance, including a pilot program for crypto-asset trading platforms under Government Resolution No. 05/2025/NQ-CP.
He said the country has a real opportunity to pull in international capital, open up new business models, and strengthen its position in the regional fintech space — but only if the market is built on transparent rules, sound risk management, and strong protections for investors.
A Market Already In Motion
Vietnam is not starting from zero. Data from the conference puts the country at seventh globally in the number of crypto users and fifth in transaction growth. In the Asia-Pacific region, digital asset transaction values climbed to around $2.4 trillion as of June 2025, according to Phan Duc Trung, chairman of the Vietnam Blockchain Association.
He also pointed to the rise of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds as a sign that the market is drawing in more traditional investors — BlackRock alone is currently managing around $67 billion in Bitcoin ETF assets.
Chris Chiew, a senior advisor at CAEX, told the conference that tokenization of real-world assets could widen access to investments by allowing large-value holdings in real estate, infrastructure, and commodities to be divided into smaller digital units and traded more easily.
He said potential assets for tokenization include gold, industrial facilities, data centers, energy projects, and port systems. Global tokenized asset markets could reach $19 trillion by 2033, with Vietnam&#8217;s share projected at between $70 billion and $80 billion by 2030, based on industry figures presented at the conference.

The transfer comes at a sensitive moment for ETH, which reacted by falling to a yearly low of $1,537 in the past 24 hours before recovering slightly back above $1,640 at the time of writing.
Joseph Lubin-Linked Wallet Moves 80,001 ETH After Three Years
Blockchain analytics platform Lookonchain flagged a notable transfer on June 6, noting that a wallet associated with Joseph Lubin, the co-founder of Ethereum and chief executive of Consensys, moved 80,001 ETH valued at $121.6 million following more than three years of complete dormancy. 
Before Lookonchain highlighted the activity, the wallet held 243,300 ETH worth around $370 million. However, the movement did not stop with the initial 80,001 ETH transfer. Data from Arkham Intelligence shows that another 30,000 ETH was moved out of the same wallet after Lookonchain’s post, bringing the total outflow to 120,000 ETH within a short period. At the time of writing, the wallet’s remaining balance is at 133,000 ETH, meaning nearly half of the ETH previously held in the address has now been transferred out. 
The sudden reactivation of the wallet set off alarm bells across crypto social media at a time when Ethereum has already shed about 47% of its value since the beginning of the year. Ethereum has already been trading under pressure in June, and a large movement from a wallet associated with one of the network’s earliest and most visible figures naturally led to panic from other Ethereum traders.
Is #Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin(@ethereumJoseph) preparing to dump $ETH?
A wallet linked to Joseph Lubin, which holds 243,300 $ETH($370M), transferred out 80,001 $ETH($121.6M) after more than 3 years of inactivity.https://t.co/s6lzxlNpRy pic.twitter.com/f0hyWvQBAm

Some Whales Buy The Dip While Others Head Out
Following the outflows from Lubin&#8217;s wallets shows that the cryptocurrencies eventually entered into a DSProxy wallet. While the intentions as to the transactions can be debated, other large holders have been making their moves with more clarity. 
For instance, Longling Capital, a wallet known on on-chain tracking platforms for its pattern of buying low and selling high, deposited 10,000 ETH worth $15.68 million to Binance, according to Lookonchain. The move to a centralized exchange can be easily interpreted as a precursor to selling from the whale address.
However, not every whale is in a selloff mood. One Ethereum OG who sold 60,000 ETH and 9,442 wstETH at approximately $2,040 just a week earlier has already begun buying back the cryptocurrency. Over the past two days, that whale spent $55.8 million to accumulate 35,723 ETH at an average price of $1,563 and may not be done yet, according to Lookonchain data.

On Friday, June 5th, the BitMEX co-founder proclaimed that &#8220;the Holy Trinity is dead,&#8221; dumping his Zcash, Hyperliquid, and NEAR holdings while touting WLD&#8217;s prospects of outperforming.
Hayes revealed the recently found Orchard Pool vulnerability as the rationale behind taking profit on Zcash. Meanwhile, the Maelstrom CIO had earlier sold off his entire HYPE and NEAR holdings, citing higher energy prices (due to the war in Iran), imminent US IPOs, and a rising anti-AI political stance.
Was It All Hype?
As Hayes dumped his Zcash positions, he announced his continued exposure to Worldcoin, citing his expectation that SpaceX&#8217;s IPO would catalyze WLD&#8217;s move higher. The crypto founder went on to say, &#8220;never bet against Elon,&#8221; as the price of Worldcoin remained fairly steady during Friday&#8217;s market storm.
However, in the early hours of Saturday, Hayes posted a chart of the SpaceX security and said the price is &#8220;going in the wrong direction&#8221; before disclosing that he is out of his Worldcoin position. The Maelstrom CIO barely explained the rationale for his decision to dump the WLD tokens this weekend, despite initially implying he would hold the altcoin through the SpaceX IPO next week.
This market movement sparked outrage within the crypto community on the social media platform X, with prominent blockchain sleuth ZachXBT among the commentators. &#8220;How much exit liquidity was created from your followers over the past couple of days?&#8221; the crypto space investigator questioned Hayes on X.
Exit liquidity refers to a concept where early buyers or investors are able to successfully sell off their holdings when new buyers enter the market. Although not entirely limited to scams, this concept is often linked to &#8220;pump and dump&#8221; or &#8220;market manipulation&#8221; schemes, in which holders with significant followings and influence hype an asset before exiting at a high price.
The BitMEX founder rebuffed the idea that he used his followers as exit liquidity, saying that he sold to a willing buyer at a price. &#8220;Prices could be higher, and then I would be called a dumb ass. I just happened to call it right this time as it regards to my trading goals,&#8221; Hayes wrote on X.
WLD Price At A Glance
Shortly after Hayes disclosed that he was offloading his WLD holdings, the altcoin&#8217;s value dropped by almost 30% before recovering. As of this writing, the price of Worldcoin stands at around $0.4228, with an over 20% decline still on the books over the past day.

A Freeze That Started It All
HTX announced on June 6 that USD1 would be removed from its platform on June 7. Users holding USD1 on the exchange will have their balances converted to USDT at a 1:1 rate, with the converted funds credited to their spot accounts.
The exchange said the decision was made to reduce potential risks, protect user assets, and maintain fair trading conditions. HTX stopped short of labeling it retaliation, but the timing left little ambiguity. 火币 HTX 关于 $WLFI、 $USD1 资产处理的情况说明
The World Liberty Financial (WLFI) 项目方近期以相关制裁合规审查为由，单方面对火币 HTX 相关链上地址采取冻结措施，导致部分 WLFI 资产链上流转受限。
鉴于 USD1 同样由 WLFI…
— 火币HTX (@HuobiGlobal) June 6, 2026
A day earlier, on June 5, HTX had already suspended several trading pairs involving WLFI tokens — including WLFI/USDT, USD1/USDT, BTC/USD1, and ETH/USD1.
The suspension followed what HTX described as a unilateral move by the WLFI project team to freeze on-chain wallet addresses linked to Huobi HTX, citing sanctions compliance reviews as justification.
Lawsuit Hangs Over The Dispute
The conflict does not exist in isolation. It is playing out against the backdrop of an active legal fight between Sun and WLFI.
Sun filed a lawsuit against the project, alleging his tokens were frozen without cause and that WLFI operates a blacklist mechanism capable of restricting or destroying user funds. 关于火币HTX下架USD1(USD1)并将用户资产兑换为USDT的公告
鉴于 USD1 为 WLFI 项目方发行的资产，为降低潜在风险、保障用户资产安全及维护公平交易环境，火币HTX将于2026年6月7日11:00（UTC+8）时下架 USD1，并将用户账户内符合兑换范围的 USD1 按 1:1 的比例兑换为 USDT。
兑换完成后，对应 USDT… https://t.co/O34q0Joc7k
— 火币HTX (@HuobiGlobal) June 6, 2026
WLFI hit back with a countersuit, accusing Sun of running a coordinated defamation campaign and using social media influencers and bots to spread damaging claims about the project.
The two sides appear no closer to a resolution. A settlement offer from a major WLFI investor was extended to Sun, but he has made no public statement indicating progress on that front.
What Comes Next For USD1 Holders
For users on the exchange, the immediate impact is straightforward: USD1 holdings will be swapped out for USDT, and the exchange has said the distribution timeline will be confirmed separately.
The broader question — whether WLFI&#8217;s invocation of sanctions compliance to freeze a counterparty&#8217;s on-chain addresses was legally grounded or tactically motivated — remains open.
Neither WLFI nor its legal representatives have issued a detailed public explanation of the freeze.
USD1 is a stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial, a crypto project backed by Trump.

ETH/BTC Structure Mirrors 2020 Chart Before Reversal
In an X post on June 6, market expert Crypflow highlights that the ETH/BTC price once formed a bottom around a strong support zone back in 2020. Interestingly, the bottoming of this Ethereum-to-Bitcoin ratio preceded a powerful rotation of bullish momentum into the Ethereum price, thereby fueling its last bull run.
$ETH/BTC (1M) &#8211; This is where ETH woke up last cycle.
Back in 2020, ETH/BTC bottomed in this zone.
What followed was one of the strongest periods of ETH outperformance in history.
Today:→ ETH/BTC is back at the same support level→ Price is being squeezed inside the apex… pic.twitter.com/f7Vfx7R3gi
&mdash; CRYPFLOW (@_Crypflow_) June 6, 2026
Crypflow reveals that recently the pair has reached the same historical bottom, specifically around the 0.02528 mark. Notably, this fall towards the key level marks months of Ethereum underperformance relative to BTC. In this scenario, we see the ETH/BTC price being compressed at the apex of the trend’s triangle.
As such, Crypflow explains that for the past pattern to play out again, there must be a definitive breakout from this structure. If this happens, the Ethereum price could see a rapid and significant inflow of bullish momentum, as the breakout would signal that capital is being rotated back into Ethereum. The fact that the risk/reward ratio appears very enticing in the current setup makes it all the more likely that the 2020 bottoming and breakout events will recur.
Bitcoin Price At Pivotal $60,000 Support: Is A Recovery Underway?
In a separate post on X, Crypflow highlights that the Bitcoin price is currently testing one of its support zones that has previously cushioned weakness. The crypto pundit lists the $60,000 price level as this critical zone, which has served as the Bitcoin bottom seen in February.
With the zone being tested again, Crypflow suggests the bitcoin price could be in the earliest stages of recovery. However, this is only within the bounds of possibility, so far, $60,000 is not lost. If $60,000 holds, and a clear breakout is seen, the recovery effort could be said to have fully begun.
On the contrary, if the $60,000 zone fails to hold, Crypflow explains that Bitcoin could see a sharp downturn, with its next major target at $54,000. In this case, all hopes of a reversal playing out would have to rest on the integrity of the $54,000 level.
As of this writing, the Bitcoin price stands at $62,375, reflecting 2.45% growth over the past day. Ethereum shows similar price growth, currently worth $1,610, up 2.52% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap data.

Researcher Who Found The Zcash Flaw Targets XMR For Future Audit</title><description><![CDATA[The security researcher, who discovered the Orchard Pool vulnerability in Zcash, says he has added other privacy-focused coins, including Monero, to his audit queue.
Researcher To Audit Monero After Finding Zcash Flaw
Security engineer Taylor Hornby, who used the Claude AI Opus 4.8 model, has revealed that he intends to audit Monero, among other crypto projects, in the near future. &#8220;Absolutely! I&#8217;ll add Monero to my queue of things to audit,&#8221; Hornby responded when asked on X whether he could look for bugs in XMR and other privacy-focused cryptocurrencies.
The Orchard Counterfeiting flaw, which could have enabled a bad actor to mint unlimited, undetectable amounts of counterfeit ZEC tokens, had gone undetected since May 2022. Hornby discovered the counterfeiting vulnerability in Zcash&#8217;s Orchard pool on May 29 and reported it to Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL), which coordinated an emergency network fix by June 2.
The language in the public notice of the vulnerability emphasized that, while there was no evidence of exploitation, due to Zcash&#8217;s privacy property, there was no way to cryptographically confirm that the bug was not exploited during the period it went unnoticed. This impossible situation has cast doubt on the privacy feature in certain cryptocurrencies, such as Monero.
Hornby explained that his close relationship with the Zcash developers and the impact of the crypto project on his life were the reasons he disclosed the flaw rather than exploiting it. Additionally, the security researcher revealed that he intends to apply for a Zcash coinholder grant while seeking voluntary donations to fund further work.
The discovery of this vulnerability precipitated a level of FUD-driven capitulation in the crypto market, with ZEC losing nearly half of its value on the day. With Monero seemingly next on the list, anything less than a favorable security audit report could trigger the return of doubt into privacy-focused coins and the general cryptocurrency market.
What&#8217;s The Next Move For The Privacy Coin?
With no cryptographic way to confirm whether the counterfeiting vulnerability was exploited, Shielded Labs, alongside the ZODL and other key stakeholders, has launched a proposal called Ironwood. Ironwood is expected to enable users to verify the authenticity of ZEC&#8217;s circulating supply.
According to the proposal, users would be able to independently verify the total circulating supply of Zcash by running a node. &#8220;As soon as Ironwood activates, users can verify from the consensus rules that no more than the correct amount of ZEC can be circulating,&#8221; the initial proposal read.
As of this writing, the price of ZEC sits at around $400, reflecting an almost 4% jump in the past 24 hours.

The latest outflows come after a difficult May, as investor sentiment around Bitcoin continues to worsen amid strong macroeconomic uncertainty.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs Record 1 Green Day In 15
According to data from SoSoValue, the Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded combined net outflows of approximately $1.72 billion between June 1 and June 5, as market prices tumbled to around $60,000. The negative performance follows May&#8217;s total net outflows of $2.43 billion, marking an extended period of capital flight from the investment funds. Over its last 15 trading sessions, the Bitcoin ETFs have registered just one day of positive net flow, i.e., a moderate $3.05 million on June 4, underscoring the dominant bearish sentiment among institutional investors.
Looking at individual performance, BlackRock&#8217;s IBIT accounted for the majority of the week’s withdrawals, after registering net outflows of $1.34 billion. Meanwhile, Fidelity&#8217;s FBTC followed with $201.92 million in net redemptions, while Grayscale&#8217;s GBTC lost another $144.36 million. Other funds that experienced significant selling pressure include Invesco’s BTCO, Bitwise’s BITB, and ArkInvest/21Shares, with respective net withdrawals of  $12.65 million, $15.57 million, and $49.71 million.
Meanwhile, Grayscale’s BTC, Valkyrie’s BRRR, WisdomTree’s BTCW, and Hashdex’s DEFI ended the week with no net flows. Only two investment funds attracted relevant fresh capital as Van Eck’s HODL recorded net inflows of $4.22 million, while MSBT added $35.05 million. At the time of writing, cumulative net inflows into Bitcoin Spot ETFs total $53.94 billion. Meanwhile, total net assets now stand at $75.12 billion, down 20.19% in value over the last week.
Ethereum ETFs Lose Another $168M Amid Market Turmoil
In line with their Bitcoin counterparts, the Ethereum spot ETFs also opened their June account with significant investor withdrawals. Over the last week, the funds collectively recorded net outflows of $168 million, while their combined net assets fell to $9.78 billion from $11.78 billion.
The latest figures suggest institutional investors are adopting a more cautious approach as they navigate an increasingly uncertain macroeconomic environment. At press time, Bitcoin is valued at $61,592, reflecting a modest 2.00% gain in the last day. Meanwhile, Ethereum is trading at $1,612 after rebounding from its cycle low around $1,500.
