Senator Adam Schiff of California rolled out a bill on Monday aimed squarely at the highest office in the land. It would bar the president, vice president and their immediate family from getting into any crypto business while wearing the badge of public office. The move comes as concern is growing over political power mixing with digital money moves.

Strict Ban On Crypto Endorsements

According to the Curbing Officials’ Income and Nondisclosure (COIN) Act, no sitting president or vice president could issue, sponsor or endorse any cryptocurrency, meme coin, NFT or stablecoin.

The same rule would cover their spouses and children. Based on reports, the plan even makes them report any sale of digital assets over $1,000. That simple step could force more transparency on deals that happen behind closed doors.

Heavy Penalties For Violators

The COIN Act sets clear penalties for anyone who steps out of line. Civil fines would match the profit made on a bad deal. Anyone who breaks the rule could also face up to five years in prison.

It’s a steep price. That level of punishment sends a strong signal that these are not harmless side projects but serious conflicts of interest.

U.S. Democratic lawmakers introduce bill to combat crypto-related conflicts of interest

Ten Democratic lawmakers, including California Senator @SenAdamSchiff, have introduced the “Curbing Officials’ Income and Nondisclosure” bill or COIN Act, to prevent the president and public…

Links To Trump’s Crypto Deals

Schiff did not hide why he pushed this bill. Based on reports, US President Donald Trump pulled in $58 million from crypto ventures in 2024, mostly from WLFI token sales.

That haul was second only to his hotel and resort earnings. And he’s eyeing another $390 million token sale in 2025, plus gains from his meme coin that launched in January.

His companies are also involved in Bitcoin mining and a proposed $2.3 billion Bitcoin treasury plan under Trump Media and Technology Group.

The SEC cleared that $2.3 billion filing on June 13, covering 85 million shares and 29 million tied to convertible notes.

Challenges In A Divided Congress

Getting this through won’t be easy. Nine Senate Democrats have signed on as co-sponsors. Of those, seven backed last week’s GENIUS Act, which set stablecoin rules for Congress but left the president untouched.

That split vote showed how tricky it is to balance broad crypto rules with a law aimed at one person. The House is under Republican control, and any bill that could put a president in a bind is likely to stall in committee.

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell announced on Tuesday that banks will have the autonomy to determine their customer base, signaling an open door for digital asset investors and the introduction of new investment products centered around crypto assets. 

Freedom To Engage In Crypto Activities 

During his remarks before the House Financial Services Committee, Powell emphasized that banks are now positioned to offer banking services specifically tailored to the cryptocurrency industry and its associated companies.

On Tuesday, Powell further stressed that these digital asset activities must be conducted with a focus on maintaining safety and soundness for everyday investors. 

This announcement follows the Federal Reserve’s recent decision to remove reputational risk from its bank examination criteria on Monday, a change that aligns with similar actions taken by other US banking regulators, such as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

Banks had expressed concerns that the previous emphasis on reputational risk could lead to subjective judgments from regulators, potentially penalizing institutions for engaging in legally permissible activities, including cryptocurrency, that do not pose significant financial risks. 

With the removal of this standard, the Federal Reserve has signaled a more lenient regulatory environment, allowing financial institutions to engage more freely in crypto-related projects and offerings.

Inflation Forecast

Addressing broader economic issues that can influence cryptocurrency prices, Powell highlighted ongoing concerns about inflation, which remains above the Fed’s target of 2%. 

The Fed chair noted that the impact of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on the economy is still uncertain, stating, “Policy changes continue to evolve, and their effects on the economy remain uncertain.” 

Powell explained that the effects of tariffs will depend on their ultimate levels and that historically, tariffs have led to one-time price increases rather than sustained inflationary pressures.

As for inflation metrics, Powell indicated that the Fed’s preferred measure is likely to rise to 2.3% in May, with the core measure—excluding food and energy—expected to edge up to 2.6%. 

In April, these figures were recorded at 2.1% and 2.5%, respectively. Powell and his colleagues on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) are carefully considering these dynamics and do not feel rushed to adjust policy until more data on the impact of tariffs becomes available.

Norway’s Green Minerals and Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap Financial have emerged as the latest companies looking to adopt Saylor’s Strategy Bitcoin playbook. These companies combined have earmarked over $2 billion, which they plan to use to accumulate BTC. 

Green Minerals & ProCap Financial Adopt Strategy’s Bitcoin Model

In a press release, Green Minerals announced the adoption of a Bitcoin Treasury, just like Saylor’s Strategy, as part of the company’s overall blockchain strategy. The company plans to accumulate BTC as a “forward-thinking financial approach” to diversify its treasury away from traditional fiat currencies.

Green Minerals further revealed that it has set an ambitious target to raise up to $1.2 billion to help boost its Bitcoin Treasury. Simply put, the company plans to raise $1.2 billion to buy BTC, which is also bullish for the Bitcoin price. 

The company’s Executive Chairman, Ståle Rodahl, highlighted how Bitcoin’s “decentralized, non-inflationary properties make it an attractive alternative to traditional fiat.” He added that by integrating a Bitcoin Treasury, like Saylor’s Strategy, they are not just mitigating fiat risks but also reaffirming their commitment to financial innovation. 

Meanwhile, Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap BTC LLC is also set to become a Bitcoin Treasury company through a $1 billion merger with Columbus Circle Capital Corp. According to the press release, the new company, which will be known as ProCap Financial, will hold up to $1 billion in Bitcoin on its balance sheet, following Strategy’s BTC model. 

As part of the announcement, Anthony Pompliano revealed that they have raised over $750 million for the public Bitcoin Treasury company. This represents the largest initial fundraising for a public BTC company. The companies involved in the proposed merger raised $516.5 million in equity and $325 million in convertible notes. 

Interestingly, Pompliano responded to Michael Saylor’s congratulatory message on the deal, stating how his idea is spreading globally as people realize the value of Bitcoin. 

Strategy Makes Purchase Of Its Own

Amid the announcement from the new Bitcoin Treasury companies, Saylor’s Strategy has made another Bitcoin purchase. The company announced that it acquired 245 BTC for $26 million between June 16 and 22. Saylor’s company now holds 592,345 BTC, which it acquired for $41.87 billion at an average price of $70,681 per BTC. 

Strategy is the largest public Bitcoin Treasury company, well ahead of second-placed MARA Holdings, which currently holds 46,374 BTC, according to CoinGecko data. It is worth noting that the latest Bitcoin purchase was Strategy’s second-smallest this year. The company had purchased 130 BTC in March for $10.7 million, which is the smallest purchase in 2025. 

At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $105,800, up over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Per a press release, Chainlink entered in a partnership with global payment provider Mastercard. The partners will create a bridge to connect legacy payment rails with on-chain DeFi transactions.

Chainlink Opens Door For Millions to Buy Crypto

According to the release, the deal will be conducted with the collaboration of zerohash, Swapper Finance, Shift4 Payments, and XSwap. The partners will use the Uniswap protocol to settle the payments allowing over 3 billion cardholders to directly buy crypto from a fully decentralized platform. The press release claims:

This breakthrough is powered by Chainlink’s secure interoperability infrastructure and Mastercard’s trusted global payments network, removing long-standing barriers that have kept mainstream users from accessing the onchain economy.

While one of the partners, zerohash, will provide liquidity and onchain services to settle the legacy payments into the Uniswap smart contract; the others, Shift4 Payments, Swapper Finance, and XSwap, will provide a ‘next generation app experience.’

Part of the Chainlink ecosystem, XSwap uses this protocol’s standard for data and interoperability, the release continues, to provide core compliance, custody, and transaction infrastructure. In that way, it is easy for the cardholders to convert fiat into crypto without the usual barriers between the two sectors.

Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink, stated the following while thanking the Mastercard team for their ‘innovative implementation’ and the rest of the partners for achieving a ‘complex’ task in collaboration with the Chainlink community:

This is the type of traditional finance and decentralized finance convergence that Chainlink was built to make possible. I’m excited about Chainlink’s ability to enable this critical connection between the traditional payments world and the over three billion cardholders in the Mastercard user base, directly into the next generation trading environments of onchain decentralized exchanges (…).

People Want to Buy Crypto With Ease

On the other hand, Raj Dhamodharan, executive vice president, Blockchain & Digital Assets at Mastercard, believes that the product will satisfy a demand from the cardholders allowing them to connect to the crypto market with ease.

The collaboration with Mastercard will ‘unlock’ bridge between crypto users, including merchants, and potentially boost the growth and adoption of cryptocurrencies. Drew Turchin, Head of Business Development at Uniswap Labs also added:

The Uniswap protocol has become foundational for onchain markets, enabling developers around the world to build new tools for a wide range of users. It’s exciting to see this Swapper leverage the protocol and is another great example of how the protocol continues to serve as critical infrastructure in the financial stack.

Midnight, Cardano’s privacy-focused side-chain, has seen its long-anticipated “Glacier Drop” transition from concept to a fully documented specification with the release of the project’s 45-page Tokenomics and Incentives Whitepaper dated June 2025. The document crystallises what had previously been hints—namely that the entire genesis mint of 24 billion NIGHT tokens is being put on the table for a community-driven distribution whose first salvo is the Glacier Drop. “Token supply: 24 billion NIGHT tokens minted on Cardano, which are mirrored on the Midnight network,” the paper states, before adding that expansion via block rewards is strictly disinflationary, tapering toward zero once every token is circulating.

NIGHT is described as a non-expendable utility token that continuously generates the shielded network resource called DUST. Every block credits fresh DUST to a designated, privacy-preserving address until the address hits a cap that is mathematically linked to the amount of NIGHT backing it; if the holder moves or re-designates their NIGHT, the previously accumulated DUST decays to zero. “As it is generated continually and indefinitely, there is no limit to how much DUST can be generated over time,” the white-paper explains, underscoring that DUST itself is non-transferable and burns on use, severing the traditional link between transaction fees and token price volatility.

Block producers are instead paid in newly circulating NIGHT that flows out of a Reserve using a “base distribution rate” calibrated to deliver an initial network inflation around three per cent per annum. Because the rate is applied to the shrinking Reserve balance, annual issuance decays along an exponential curve, meaning the reward pot lasts “in the order of hundreds of years.” A fixed subsidy guarantees that even empty blocks earn something, but a variable component tied to block fullness redirects otherwise-lost rewards to the on-chain Treasury, creating a carrot for maximum transaction inclusion.

Cardano’s Biggest Airdrop: Who Gets What And How

The white-paper calls the Glacier Drop “phase one of a three-step claim journey,” and it allocates the entire 24 billion supply to this opening phase to 8 chains, albeit with conditions designed to defeat Sybil bots and sanctioned entities. Half of the supply is reserved for Cardano native-token holders, one fifth for Bitcoin addresses, and the balance is split among Ethereum, Solana, XRP Ledger, BNB Chain, Avalanche and Brave wallet participants according to the US-dollar value of their holdings at the moment of a random, already-taken historical snapshot.

Individual eligibility is algorithmic and transparent. If, at the snapshot, an address on any of the eight networks held the equivalent of at least $100 in its native asset—and is not flagged on OFAC’s SDN list—it can claim. Midnight then requires two cryptographic proofs: first, the address owner signs a message to demonstrate custody; second, the claimant supplies a fresh, unused Cardano address to receive the thawed NIGHT once the redemption window opens. Custodial exchange accounts are out of luck unless the custodian chooses to claim on users’ behalf.

The Glacier claim window will run for sixty days. Claimed tokens are locked in a Cardano smart contract and “gradually thaw” throughout a subsequent redemption period; the cadence of that unlock schedule has not yet been published, but Midnight emphasises that the mechanism is meant to blunt opportunistic dumping and encourage early participation in block production, governance and DUST-fuelled application building. Unclaimed NIGHT does not disappear: it rolls into phase two, the Scavenger Mine, where participants solve public-good computational puzzles for a share of the leftovers while simultaneously seeding core network infrastructure. Whatever survives that torrent becomes the bounty for phase three, Lost-and-Found, a final recovery chance after main-net launch.

Prospective claimants therefore have a concrete checklist. They must confirm that their balances are held in self-custody at the snapshot height, ensure the wallet remains unsanctioned, and prepare to sign a message once the NIGHT Claim Portal goes live. They must also create an unused Cardano address—a privacy best-practice given that Midnight will publish audit proofs for every redemption transaction on-chain. With those pieces in place, the only moving parts left are the opening block number of the claim portal and the publication of the exact thaw schedule, both of which the team says will appear on Midnight’s official website in “short order.”

At press time, ADA traded at $0.5817.

Bitcoin has displayed robust resilience, bouncing back into bullish territory and allowing the flagship asset to recover to $105,000 once again. While the price is gradually recovering from the recent pullback, BTC’s derivatives market is witnessing a steady drop.

A Drop In Bitcoin Futures Buying Pressure

Despite a notable rebound as Monday drew to a close, Bitcoin’s derivatives market continues to exhibit a downward trend. Darkfost, an on-chain expert and verified author, reported the development in a post on the X (formerly Twitter) platform, which hints at a shift in trader sentiment.

It is important to note that the derivatives market currently has the biggest impact on the price movement of Bitcoin. As a result, Measures such as the Taker Buy/Sell ratio or Net Taker Buy/Sell Volume are crucial on-chain indicators to keep an eye on.

The on-chain expert claims that these metrics aid in the analysis of buying and selling pressure in the market. By analyzing buying and selling pressure, investors and traders might be able to identify the dominant market trend or direction.

After exploring the BTC Net Taker Volume metric, the expert revealed that buying pressure in the futures market is on the downside. When compared to the past month, this current decline in buying pressure is significant.

This sharp drop in demand for leveraged exposure during heightened market whirlwinds suggests that players may be adopting a more cautious position. Furthermore, it can be a sign of increasing skepticism regarding its immediate future, even though the broader fundamentals of Bitcoin remain sound.

As long as the indicator remains in the negative zone, Darkfost stated bearish sentiment is likely to grow, and buying pressure in the futures market will steadily decrease. To put it another way, traders are becoming cautious, and that long-side volume is declining.

In the meantime, the expert has underscored the importance of monitoring the ongoing trend. This is because when this trend reverses, it implies that traders are once again feeling positive, which might lead to upward momentum.

Market Sentiment Still Negative

Offering more insights on market sentiment, Axel Adler Jr., a macro-researcher and author, revealed that the composite Sentiment index has been under bearish pressure for the last 24 hours and has corrected to a local minimum of -20%, which is the highest reading in the last month.

According to the expert, the Taker order volume (seller predominance) negative delta grew more pronounced at the point of breaking through the $100,000 mark. Meanwhile, as open interest dropped, players were compelled to use liquidations to lower their leverage.

Looking at the Bitcoin Advanced Sentiment Index, the metric has increased from 20% to 37%, while the volume delta has decreased, remaining in the bearish mood zone. This development suggests that players are trying to capture the pullback by partially purchasing oversold positions. However, Adler has underlined caution in the market due to the possible escalation of the Middle East conflict.

Anthony Pompliano, the well-known crypto investor and founder of ProCap, just dropped a bombshell. He’s raised $750 million to merge with Columbus Circle Capital Corp.

The result? A new publicly traded entity called ProCap Financial Inc. (trading under ticker $CCCM), with $1 billion worth of Bitcoin on its books.

The raise includes $516.5M in equity and $235M in convertible notes, backed by a serious who’s-who of crypto venture firms: Arrington Capital, RK Capital, Anson Funds, FalconX, and heavy-hitting individuals like Mark Yusko of Morgan Creek Capital and Eight Sleep CEO Matteo Franceschetti.

Pompliano broke the news on X, stating that the firm’s mission is to acquire more $BTC and roll out a new wave of crypto-native financial products.

Read on to explore what this means for Bitcoin’s future — and discover the top altcoins poised to ride the wave of growing institutional adoption.

Growing Institutional Adoption of Bitcoin

Columbus Circle Capital Corp. is among the growing list of institutions that have turned to Bitcoin as a reserve strategy. This whole shift was triggered by Michael Saylor’s Strategy, who now owns 592,345 $BTC.

Behind this is Marathon Digital Holdings with 46,374 BTC. Currently, only seven institutions hold $BTC worth more than $1B, including Musk’s Tesla. This would make $CCCM the 8th largest holder of Bitcoin currently.

As per reports, Trump Media, a conglomerate backed by President Donald Trump, is also planning to add $2.5B worth of $BTC to its portfolio.

As the institutional adoption and push for Bitcoin is at its peak, this is the best time to take some long-term bets on the ‘digital gold.’

Here are some cryptocurrencies that can bring in sizable returns as Bitcoin nears an all-time high again.

1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – New Bitcoin Layer-2 Revolutionizing the OG Blockchain

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is possibly the most exciting new cryptocurrency project going around right now.

That’s because it plans to revolutionize Bitcoin, the OG blockchain, by creating a Layer 2 on it that facilitates fast and cheap transactions, as well as DeFi access.

Powered by a Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) integration, Bitcoin Hyper’s Canonical Bridge will convert your original $BTC into wrapped Bitcoin.

You can then use this converted $BTC to access decentralized applications, gaming dApps, and Web3, as well as to speed up transactions on Bitcoin, which was earlier not possible due to the network’s innately sluggish and expensive nature.

Thanks to its one-of-a-kind mission, Bitcoin Hyper is predicted to surge 12,400% and reach $1.5 by 2030.

Even better, you can join the tribe by paying just $0.012, as the project is currently in presale. It has raised over $1.5M in early funding, even though it’s fresh out of the oven.

2. BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) – Top Altcoin to Buy to Ride Bitcoin’s Growth

BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) is another Bitcoin-centric altcoin that has the potential to rise alongside the king cryptocurrency, helping you maximize your gains from a Bitcoin bull run.

It stands out by being the ONLY crypto to offer free $BTC to its token holders. While other meme coins offer more of their own cryptos as rewards to their community, $BTCBULL will give you a chance to own Bitcoin for a fraction of the cost.

These Bitcoin airdrops will take place twice: once when $BTC reaches $150K for the first time, and again when it crosses $200K. And you must store your tokens in Best Wallet to be eligible for the rewards.

One $BTCBULL is currently priced at just $0.00258. Why so cheap? Because it’s in presale ($7.1M+ raised). Also, note that the amount of $BTC you receive will depend on your $BTCBULL holdings.

BTC Bull Token itself is predicted to skyrocket after its listing on major exchanges. It could surge 1,800% and reach $0.0497 by 2030.

What’s more, the project’s developers plan to boost the token’s demand and price by adopting a deflationary model.

Under this, a part of the total $BTCBULL token supply will be wiped out every time $BTC climbs up by $50K. For more info, here’s how to buy BTC Bull Token.

3. Tutorial ($TUT) – Education-Based Crypto Trending Right Now

Tutorial is a hot new altcoin that has emerged as the market’s favorite thanks to its unique take on crypto education.

Where other meme and altcoins look to ride the crypto wave by churning out one amusing idea after another, $TUT has taken a different approach. It’s focused on educating people about cryptocurrency.

At its core, it’s an AI-powered tool with a comprehensive library of resources on different crypto-related topics and tools, including setting up a crypto wallet, writing smart contracts, trading on the best decentralized exchanges, etc.

$TUT is up over 63% in the past seven days, and it’s currently trading at a low price of $0.05411. Although it’s at an all-time high, the broader crypto market’s growth in the coming years could easily benefit what’s probably the best education token going around.

Bottom Line

With an increasing number of public companies (as well as government agencies) looking at Bitcoin as both a store of real value and a hedge against inflation, the time is ripe to put your faith in high-potential altcoins like Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) and BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL).

That said, please bear in mind that this is not financial advice. The market is highly volatile, and you must always do your own research before investing.

Pro-XRP attorney John E. Deaton reignited speculation over a Ripple initial public offering late on Monday, arguing on X that the timing is now a big factor. Deaton noted that stablecoin issuer Circle’s public float has shown what deep, liquid US equity markets will tolerate, and suggested that if Circle can command a 62-75 billion market cap, then Ripple could even surpass a $100 billion valuation.

“I know Brad Garlinghouse said Ripple is NOT in a rush to go public. They certainly don’t need to raise capital, which is often a primary reason to go public. But TIMING an IPO is also a big consideration. If Circle can hit a $62B-75B market cap then Ripple, with nearly 40B XRP, currently valued at $2 (ie $80B), could certainly hit a $100B market cap in this environment,” Deaton wrote via X.

Ripple’s Fast-Rising Private Valuation

His comments dropped just days after Ripple opened a $700 million tender offer that prices private shares at $175—a 135 percent premium to recent secondary trading on Hyve and nearly triple the $65 tender executed two summers ago.

The latest price implies an equity valuation of roughly $25 billion for the 141 million shares outstanding. January’s buy-back had cleared at $125, underscoring how quickly insiders are marking the company higher. Internal deal documents circulated with the offer show $3.7 billion in cash, zero debt, and 41 billion XRP on the balance sheet—assets worth about $94 billion at spot or $47 billion using a fifty-percent haircut.

For now, though, management insists liquidity events are simply housekeeping. “IPO is not a priority,” CEO Brad Garlinghouse told shareholders in the tender-offer email that accompanied the latest buy-back.

However, regulatory overhang could be the main gating factor. In March the US Securities and Exchange Commission withdrew its appeal of Judge Analisa Torres’s 2023 ruling that programmatic XRP sales are not securities, a move Garlinghouse hailed as a “long-overdue surrender.”

The agency and Ripple then negotiated a framework to dissolve the remaining injunction and split a previously imposed $125 million penalty, with $75 million returning to Ripple’s treasury and $50 million going to the SEC; that joint motion was filed on June 13 and awaits Torres’s sign-off. An earlier $50 million proposal was bounced in May for procedural defects, but the latest submission is widely expected to close the book on the five-year litigation.

Deaton’s $100 billion figure rests on treating Ripple’s XRP escrow as a de-facto asset base and assuming public investors will capitalize it at—or even above—spot value. That approach departs from how Wall Street valued Circle, whose June 4 New York Stock Exchange debut raised $1.1 billion at a $6.9 billion equity valuation even though roughly $62 billion in USDC circulates on-chain.

Skeptics point out that Circle’s tokens are liabilities, not residual assets, and that public-market investors have historically resisted paying dollar-for-dollar for native coins held by an issuer. Nevertheless, even excluding the escrow entirely, Ripple’s cash, securities and operating income already underpin a double-digit billion valuation that could expand sharply if XRP remains above $2.15.

Could Ripple Top Coinbase’s Record?

If Ripple were to float at a fully-diluted $100 billion, it would eclipse Coinbase’s $86 billion landmark direct listing in April 2021 and set a new high-water mark for a crypto-native equity listing. Deaton’s thesis thus frames a potential record-breaker at the intersection of two forces: a legal détente that removes the core regulatory discount and a still-expanding XRP treasury whose mark-to-market value increasingly dwarfs Ripple’s current private-share price.

Judge Torres’s decision on the June 13 motion is the next catalyst. If she signs off, Ripple will emerge from the SEC saga with both a leaner penalty and a courtroom vindication it can take on the roadshow circuit.

Garlinghouse has repeatedly said the company is “not in a rush,” but the tender-offer terms expire July 9, and investors will parse any subsequent corporate filings or NASDAQ Private Market communications for hints of a registration statement.

At press time, XRP traded at $2.168.

Hopes of an altcoin season have been dashed after the Bitcoin price crashed below $100,000, and altcoin prices fell rapidly in response. The altcoin declines have been even more prominent, with most altcoins now sitting more than 70% below their all-time high levels. During this time, the Bitcoin dominance has been rising rapidly, suggesting that all of the focus is still on Bitcoin right now. As the dominance rises, though, a crypto analyst has revealed what could trigger an altcoin season.

The Catalyst For The Next Altcoin Season

After the crash coming out of the weekend, the Bitcoin dominance shot up once again above the 66% mark to reach new 4-year highs. This showed that the altcoin season was nowhere close as prices fell across the board, and the altcoin market cap plummeted.

Highlighting the rise in the Bitcoin dominance, crypto analyst Rekt Capital pointed out why this increase is important. Highlighting a previous post on X (formerly Twitter), the analyst explained that the rise in the Bitcoin dominance is actually important if there is to be an altcoin season.

More importantly, the Bitcoin dominance would have to cross into the 70% territory before there is an end to the onslaught on the altcoin market. Pointing to historical performance, Rekt Capital mapped out the Bitcoin dominance being rejected at the 71% mark before the altcoin season can begin.

The post read: “If history repeats, the real Altseason everybody is waiting for would begin once Bitcoin Dominance rejects from 71%”

What Happens To Altcoins If BTC Dominance Goes To 71%?

Given Rekt Capital’s call for the need for the Bitcoin dominance to rise to 71% before an altcoin season can begin, it has understandably raised questions around what this would mean for altcoins. As already seen, a continuous rise in the Bitcoin dominance would mean that the altcoin prices would continue to fall, and with prices already so low, it seems a lot of altcoins could crash completely.

The crypto analyst addresses this in another X post, explaining that the Bitcoin dominance rising to 71% would not mean altcoins would go to zero. He points to a similar trend back in February  2025 when the Bitcoin dominance rose 6% in one month. Despite this, altcoin prices did hold up until a recovery began.

Rekt Capital suggests that the market may react similarly to the way that it did back in February, pointing out that the road to 71% is less than what happened in February, at only 5.5%. Now, it’s just a waiting game to see how the market plays out in the next few weeks as hopes of an altcoin season continue to dwindle.

Just like that, the war between Israel and Iran is over, at least according to US President Donald Trump. The crypto market, including meme coins, has reacted positively to the statement after being on edge when the US joined the fray and bombed three Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend.

Trump posted on Truth Social that Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire, effectively ending what he called ‘The 12-Day War’.

While Iran reportedly confirmed this, an official from the country said that it won’t stop the hostilities unless Israel ceases attacking the Islamic country. Despite that, the market has already reacted positively to Trump’s statement.

$DOGE Leads Meme Coin Rally

The meme coin market saw a significant jump over the past 24 hours as the US president’s post made its rounds on social media and news outlets.

According to data from CoinMarketCap, the meme coin market had a 10% spike in its market cap and 16% in its trading volume over the past 24 hours.

 

Dogecoin ($DOGE) led the rally as it rose by 8.15% during the same period. The meme coin’s price is currently at $0.1663 and is inching closer to the $0.17 level it held before the American bombing of Iran over the weekend.

3 Meme Coins to Watch for as the Market Recovers

The recovery of the crypto market has put everyone in buy mode. With so many options out there, here are three of the top meme coins you shouldn’t miss:

1. Snorter Token ($SNORT) – Find the Latest Meme Coins with the Telegram-Native Crypto Trading Bot

With the flurry of activity in the meme coin market today, it can be a challenge to find the hottest one to invest in. The information is spread across different platforms, and unscrupulous entities could try to lure you in with fake coins and other scams.

That’s where Snorter Bot comes in. This project, powered by its native Snorter Token ($SNORT), simplifies how you trade with its Telegram-native trading bot by letting you snipe new crypto, manage your portfolio, detect scams, and more.

To support the project, you can get $SNORT tokens via its official presale page. Each token only costs $0.0961, but a price increase will happen a day from now, so it’s always better to act as soon as you can.

Our Snorter Token buying guide has all the information you need to do this, from connecting your crypto wallet to staking your tokens.

If you decide to stake your $SNORT tokens, you can enjoy passive rewards. It’s currently set at 266% p.a., but expect this to change as more investors lock in their tokens in the staking pool.

2. BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) – Go All In on Bitcoin, Earn Free $BTC Airdrops

Even in the world of meme coins, Bitcoin ($BTC) still reigns supreme. That’s why the team behind BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) is rallying true $BTC believers to help push the crypto to $250K and beyond.

Its main selling point is its free $BTC airdrops when the crypto’s price reaches $150K and $200K. Then, a free $BTCBULL airdrop will happen when $BTC hits the $250K mark. Buying $BTCBULL tokens gives you the chance to participate in these events.

Aside from that, the team will have regular token burns at the $125K, $175K, and $225K $BTC price milestones. These will reduce the supply of $BTCBULL, which should further drive their prices.

Getting on the team’s native token is easy. First, visit the official BTC Bull Token presale page, connect your crypto wallet (e.g., Best Wallet) to the presale widget, input how many tokens you’ll buy, and pay with your credit/debit card or crypto. You’ll then receive your tokens when the presale concludes.

You can get $BTCBULL for only $0.00258 at the moment, which is a small price to pay to get the chance to join in the free airdrop events. Staking is an option, too, if you want to receive passive rewards while supporting the project.

According to our BTC Bull Token price prediction, HODLing is another alternative, especially if you’re banking on it being worth as much as $0.06467.

3. Pepe ($PEPE) – The OG Meme Coin with No Signs of Slowing Down

Pepe ($PEPE) may have spawned countless copycats, but it remains one of the top meme coins, along with $DOGE and Shiba Inu ($SHIB). Proof of this is its trading activity over the past 24 hours, which saw a 10% increase in its market cap and a 32% jump in its trading volume.

But behind its degen façade, is some method to the madness. For one, there’s its burning mechanism that permanently removes $PEPE coins from circulation and pushes up the price of the remaining coins. Then there’s its generous staking rewards. This encourages HODLers to continue supporting the project.

$PEPE tokens are widely available in major exchanges, including MEXC, Binance, and KuCoin.

Time to Buy as Meme Coins Make a Comeback

Investors have been buying after Trump’s ceasefire post, with $DOGE leading the rally. If you’re looking to pump your funds into up-and-coming meme coins, BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) and Snorter Token ($SNORT) are also attractive options.

But before you buy, do your research first. Only use the information in this article for educational purposes and not as investment advice.

It’s been a busy week for crypto markets. Bitcoin briefly sank below $100K due to escalated geopolitical tensions, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) bought more $BTC anyways, and Ethereum watchers are buzzing over a massive leveraged whale trade.

Despite the turmoil, there’s still a bullish vibe to the market. Here’s what the latest moves mean for crypto and how Bitcoin’s momentum is the perfect setting for one of the best new crypto presales – BTC Bull Token.

Strategic Accumulation at the Dip

Between June 16–22, Strategy scooped up 245 BTC (~$25 M), nudging its stash to 592,345 BTC ($60B) . This move, its second-smallest buy of 2025, reflects a disciplined approach, maintaining a steady drip of purchases even as $BTC dips.

In this case, even as the U.S.–Iran tensions and a U.S. airstrike in Iran dragged $BTC briefly below $100K, Strategy pushed ahead.

In the end, the actual purchase price of $105K came in slightly higher than Strategy’s previous purchase, despite the ongoing conflict and its market repercussions.

Top-10 Cryptos Fall, Surge, then Steady

US airstrikes in Iran triggered a period of steadily increasing tensions, continuing a conflict between Israel and Iran. An Iranian counterstrike in Qatar sent $BTC further down.

But when US President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between the combatants, crypto markets surged.

A look at the 24-hour performance of the top 10 cryptos by market cap shows green across the board, as every major crypto surged. Since then, many have fallen back, but still remain above pre-ceasefire levels.

If the ceasefire holds, the conflict may have little long-term impact on the crypto market; it was simply too short-lived.

However, tension in the region is still at an all-time high, with Israel claiming a recent ceasefire violation. Iran has denied all accusations.

$BTC, $ETH Make Capital Moves Behind the Scenes

In a Form 8-K filed June 23, Strategy revealed no new common stock issuances, retaining a massive $18.6B ATM capacity. The company did raise $26.1M by selling preferred stock: 166,566 STRK and 84,354 STRF shares.

These funds likely fuel Strategy’s ongoing $BTC accumulation amid market volatility.

In parallel, Ash Crypto on X flagged a dramatic $100M $ETH long at 25x leverage. The trade could either boost $ETH if momentum holds or spark a reversal on a misstep.

Ethereum’s performance has lagged Bitcoin’s over the past year; while $BTC is up 68%, $ETH is down 29%.

The world’s second-largest crypto is up 5% in the past 24 hours. Will bullish $BTC momentum buoy Ethereum as well?

BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) – A Bullish Crypto Outlook Bodes Well for First-Ever Bitcoin Meme Coin

Don’t just follow Bitcoin; profit from it. That’s the genius of BTC Bull token ($BTCBULL).

What is BTC Bull token? It’s a project with an innovative structure that provides investors with three ways to earn from Bitcoin’s impressive 230% AAR:

• $BTCBULL token price increase, fueled by deflationary tokenomics with token burns every time Bitcoin breaks through key price milestones at $125K, $175K, and $225K.
• $BTC airdrops, awarded to BTC Bull token holders using the Best Wallet app when Bitcoin reaches $150K and $200K.
• $BTCBULL token airdrop, arriving once Bitcoin hits the $250K milestone.

The combination of token burns and Bitcoin airdrops incentivizes token growth and project participation; the more Bitcoin’s price rises and the better the crypto economy goes, the more value the $BTCBULL token holds thanks to its indirect exposure to $BTC.

Buying $BTCBULL during the presale also comes with staking rewards, currently offering 55% dynamic APY.

The outlook is bullish for BTC Bull token, especially given constant buying pressure on Bitcoin from Saylor’s Strategy.

Our own $BTCBULL price prediction points to those and other factors as reasons why $BTCBULL could climb to $0.0187 by the end of 2026, (up from $0.00258 today).

Will Ceasefire Trigger Continued Bitcoin Surge?

Prices rebounded in the wake of the ceasefire announcement, although tension in the region is still ongoing. Will the crypto market continue to surge? Could the conflict, and its resolution, actually feed the bullish outlook for Bitcoin?

If it does, BTC Bull token could be ready to explode in the latter half of 2025.

Remember to do your own research; this article is not meant for financial advice.

Texas has just become the first US state to create a publicly funded Bitcoin reserve, thanks to Governor Greg Abbot signing the Senate Bill 21 this weekend.

The ultimate aim of the ‘Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve’ is to strengthen the state’s financial resilience and serve as a hedge against inflation.

Not only is this news bullish for $BTC but also for Bitcoin-native infrastructure. As more states consider holding the #1 crypto, the need for fast, scalable tools is bound to skyrocket.

This is where Bitcoin Layer-2 solutions like Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) shine bright. They power real-world $BTC adoption with lightning-fast throughput, lower fees, and smart contract capabilities.

Texas Launches State-Independent $10M Bitcoin Reserve

States like New Hampshire and Arizona passed similar laws. However, Texas has taken one step further, funding the Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve with a hefty $10M allocation.

This new initiative stands stands out from traditional state-owned reserves by operating independently. Only the Texas Comptroller’s office and a three-member crypto investment advisory board will manage it.

To protect the new bill, Abbott signed House Bill 4488 on June 21, preventing routine ‘fund sweeps’ from transferring reserve funds into the state’s general budget. Specifically, it highlights Texas’ intent to HODL $BTC.

It’s not just about purchasing $BTC from the open market, either. The reserve could grow through airdrops, network forks, investment gains, or public crypto donations.

To track its performance, the government will release a comprehensive report detailing the fund’s holdings every two years.

But as more governments and institutions adopt $BTC, on-chain congestion is bound to increase, which puts the entire industry at risk.

Thankfully, Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) is getting ready to deliver the speed and scalability necessary to power the next wave of Bitcoin utility.

Bitcoin Hyper to Help Solve $BTC’s Growing Pains

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is positioning itself as the Layer-2 upgrade Bitcoin has long needed, and will likely need now more than ever before.

Much like how Solaxy ($SOLX) gives Solana a performance boost (and raised over $58M on presale as a consequence), Bitcoin Hyper is built to supercharge Bitcoin.

The network, set to go live in Q3 2024, will feature wrapped $BTC and full integration with the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). This will help it facilitate speedy swaps, batch transactions, and low fees – even during periods of peak usage.

A smart canonical token bridge will continuously sync Bitcoin Hyper with Bitcoin’s Layer 1. This will ensure that every action on the Layer 2 network remains secure, transparent, and verifiable. Check out our guide for a deeper dive into $HYPER’s inner workings.

In Q4 2025, you can also anticipate the release of the Bitcoin Hyper Developer Toolkit. This will let developers build everything from lending platforms to Web3 games, while remaining anchored to Bitcoin’s mainnet for extra security.

With 30% of the total $HYPER supply earmarked for ongoing developments, you can anticipate regular updates and innovation as the ecosystem matures.

It’s not surprising that whale buyers already notice the project’s long-term potential, three of whom have invested $74.9K, $54.1K, and $53.9K into $HYPER.

Each of these buys has helped it raise over $1.5M on presale in no time.

Join $HYPER to Potentially Gain 2,567% Returns

Texas isn’t just holding Bitcoin but setting a new standard. By funding a $10M $BTC reserve and protecting it from budget sweeps, the state bets big on the crypto leader’s future as a strategic asset.

Not only is this move bullish, but it’s also a turning point for $BTC adoption. It highlights the urgent need for rapid and scalable infrastructure.

Thankfully, Bitcoin Hyper is being built for the demands of tomorrow’s economy, supercharging the Bitcoin network with faster speeds, lower costs, and seamless scalability.

You can get in on the action by purchasing $HYPER on presale for just $0.012. After being listed on major exchanges, it’s projected to reach $0.32 this year – a possible 2,567% gain compared to its current price.

This isn’t investment advice. Always do your due diligence before making any investments – crypto prices can tumble as quickly as they jump.

Bitcoin is back in the spotlight with an ambitious target — $300,000 by 2025. That’s the level options traders are eyeing after a sharp increase in long-dated call options volumes. Analysts are now speculating that institutional confidence is rising again, fueled by macroeconomic shifts, ETF inflows, and increasing scarcity due to halving.

Strategy has made yet another Bitcoin purchase, this one being announced as global tensions weigh heavy on the cryptocurrency market.

Strategy Has Added Another 245 BTC To Its Stack

In a new post on X, Strategy co-founder and chairman Michael Saylor has shared a filing made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a new Bitcoin purchase.

With this $26 million acquisition, Strategy has added another 245 BTC to its holdings. This is the fourth buy that the company has made this month, although it’s the smallest of the bunch. The last purchase, announced on June 16th, was a particularly big one involving a sum surpassing $1 billion.

Following the buying spree in June so far, the total reserve of Strategy now sits at 592,345 BTC. The firm put together this stack for $41.87 billion, but today it’s worth a whopping $61 billion, implying a significant profit of almost 46%.

According to the SEC filing, the company made the latest purchase between June 16th and 22nd. Thus, it seems the company decided to buy more, despite tensions rising between Israel and Iran during the period.

Bitcoin Market Has Been Struck With Volatility After War Fears

The past day or so has been a wild time for the cryptocurrency market, induced by escalating tensions in the middle east following US strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities.

Below is a chart that shows how Bitcoin’s recent performance has looked.

As is visible in the graph, the Bitcoin price plummeted hard all the way down toward the $98,000 level as panic selling ensued, but before long, the coin found a rebound. Now, the asset’s back at $102,800, which is about the same level as before the crash.

According to data from the analytics firm Santiment, the price bounce has followed the same usual pattern of retail investor sentiment acting as a contrarian signal.

In the chart, Santiment has attached the data of the Social Volume, a metric that measures the unique number of posts making mentions of a given term or topic on the major social media platforms. The analytics firm has applied keywords related to cryptocurrency and Bitcoin to the metric.

Additionally, it has also applied two separate filters: one corresponding to bearish calls (‘lower’ or ‘below’) and another to bullish calls (‘higher’ or ‘above’). From the graph, it’s apparent that the former type of posts blew up following the US strikes, indicating FUD exploded among the retail investors.

Generally, Bitcoin and other digital assets tend to move in a direction that goes against the expectations of the crowd and that’s indeed what seems to have occurred this time as well.

The dated COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language) system may become a thing of the past thanks to increasing blockchain innovation and adoption by the world’s banking system.

At least this is what Jesse Pollak, the creator of Base and Head of Protocol at Coinbase, told Unchained in a recent interview:

‘The global economy is going to work 100 times better because it’s using this new technology that lets us move money in a permissionless, programmable way.’

—Jesse Pollak, Unchained Podcast

What is COBOL?

COBOL is one of the oldest high-level programming languages, developed in the late 1950s for business applications and administrative systems in business, finance, and other areas.

Despite being in use in most banking systems, it faces issues related to its inefficiency, reliance on a niche language, limited libraries, and lack of support for multimedia processing, machine learning, and graphical UI.

JPMorgan’s JPMD Changes the Game

JPMorgan just announced its JPMD (J.P. Morgan Deposit Token), which essentially incorporates blockchain technology into its payment system. As stated in the press release:

‘JPMD – and Deposit Tokens in general – match the novel and distinctive properties of stablecoins, most notably the ability to conduct peer-to-peer transactions with programmability. As such, Deposit Tokens and stablecoins can be applied to similar use cases.’

—JPMorgan, Deposit Tokens

This could signal the first step towards the abolition of COBOL, which, according to a Reuters report, is still in use in over 43% of the world’s banks.

According to John Duigenan, General Manager of Financial Services at IBM Technology, the dinosaur systems the banks are still using highlight the lack of innovation in the banking industry.

‘In order for banks to offer new services … they have to be able to modernise and transform — and many are struggling with the fact that they have hyper-integrated monolithic systems from 50 years ago.’

—John Duigenan, Interview

In contrast, the JPMD system lets whitelisted customers transfer their JPMorgan deposits to Coinbase’s BASE and move money far more efficiently than COBOL ever could.

This is what Jesse Pollak meant when he said that blockchain integration will help the economy work 100x better.

In this evolving financial context, the adoption of new tools like Best Wallet is another step in the right direction.

How Best Wallet Contributes to a More User-Friendly Financial System

Best Wallet is a non-custodial, no-KYC, and free-to-use crypto wallet with a user-friendly interface, live charts, and a Token Launchpad. The latter alerts you to hot new tokens, so you can buy early and potentially maximize your ROI.

Best Wallet is available to use right now, but it’s also under continuous development, intending to expand its reach and implement new services across four phases.

An NFT gallery, support for over 60 chains, market intel analytics, and MEV protection are all in the pipeline, as the project gains traction and sees wider adoption.

Best Wallet’s native token, $BEST is now in presale and has already accumulated over $13.5M, with a current token price of $0.025225.

The token supports Best Wallet’s development cycle while offering holders exclusive perks within Best Wallet’s ecosystem. These include governance rights, reduced on-chain transaction fees, and early access to new features and projects.

Based on Best Wallet’s utility, ease-of-use, and ambitious roadmap, our analysts predict that $BEST will steam up the charts post-release.

We’re looking at a potential price point of $0.072 by the end of the year, which represents a growth of 185% from today’s price of $0.025225.

With a projected 1B users by 2030, $BEST could reach $0.82 or higher, for an ROI of 3,150% if you invest today. This makes $BEST one of the best crypto presales of 2025.

If you want to join the presale to take advantage of the $BEST pre-launch price and the staking APY of 103%, go to the presale page and buy your stack of $BEST today.

The Future of Banking is Blockchain

With finance giants like JPMorgan already making the transition to digital assets and blockchain services, the signs are clear: the world’s banking system is heading straight to tokenization.

In this ever-changing financial context, innovative, user-focused services like Best Wallet will drive the transition from the classical banking system to blockchain-based ones.

Remember, this isn’t financial advice. Do your own research (DYOR) and only invest money that you can afford to lose.

• Solaxy, Snorter y Bitcoin Hyper son las mejores altcoins para invertir actualmente.
• Anthony Pompliano anunció una nueva compañía que tendrá 1.000 millones de dólares en Bitcoin.

El interés institucional de Bitcoin ha llevado a que cada vez más empresas almacenen tokens BTC como estrategia. El último anuncio en referencia a este tema lo hizo Anthony Pompliano – CEO de la empresa de servicios financieros ProCap BTC. Comunicó que su empresa se fusionaría con Columbus Circle Capital I.

El resultado de esta fusión empresarial es una nueva compañía: ProCap Financial. Esta nueva empresa de tesorería de Bitcoin contará con más de 1.000 millones de dólares en tokens BTC. El objetivo de esta fusión es seguir los pasos de Strategy, empresa que ya acumula más de 63.000 millones de dólares en bitcoins.

A pesar de esto, Bitcoin no es la única criptomoneda que interesa a los traders. De hecho, los minoristas, muchas veces buscan activos que generan una mayor rentabilidad a corto plazo – por eso las preventas tienen tanto éxito. Snorter, Bitcoin Hyper y BTC BULL se posicionan como las criptomonedas con más potencial de la actualidad.

Snorter – el mejor bot de trading de memecoins de Solana

Cuando hablamos de las mejores altcoins en preventa, Snorter debe estar en lo más alto de la lista. Este innovador bot de trading de memecoins promete encontrar “joyas ocultas” que brindarán increíbles rentabilidades. Dado el “boom” de las memecoins, es una herramienta con un potencial inigualable.

Pero Snorter no se conforma con ser un simple bot de memecoins – ya hay muchos así. Por eso cuenta con una plataforma completa para que los traders puedan sacar el máximo partido del mercado. A través de la plataforma – que está construida en Telegram – los usuarios podrán seguir sus inversiones, hacer copytrading de las carteras de los traders más populares e incluso establecer órdenes límite.

En lo que respecta a la seguridad, Snorter también cuenta con la última tecnología. El sector de las memecoins puede llevar a los traders a sufrir estafas y hackeos, por eso Snorter cuenta con sistemas de detección de honeypots y anti rug-pulls.

La preventa de Snorter acumula más de 1,2 millones de dólares y todo apunta a que esta cifra seguirá creciendo. Los usuarios interesados en Snorter podrán adquirir el token SNORT en el sitio web oficial del proyecto. Actualmente, el precio de SNORT es de 0,0961 dólares – aunque irá subiendo a medida que la preventa avance.

Aprovecha a unirte a la preventa de Snorter Token cuanto antes. ¡Nunca encontrarás SNORT tan barato como hoy!

Bitcoin Hyper – la mejor capa 2 de Bitcoin

Noticias como la fusión de ProCap Financial demuestran el interés creciente en Bitcoin. Es por esta razón que la preventa de Bitcoin Hyper está teniendo tanto éxito. Esta nueva capa 2 ha sido creada para mejorar la escalabilidad de Bitcoin. Ante una adopción creciente de Bitcoin, una reducción de la congestión de la red puede ser una revolución.

La integración de la máquina virtual de Solana (SVM) es la base del proyecto. Esta verificará los depósitos de Bitcoin y también tendrá la función de acuñar una cantidad idéntica de tokens en la capa 2. La SVM permitirá que estas transacciones sean rápidas y seguras. Además, la presencia del puente canónico descentralizado garantizará que los usuarios puedan retirar sus BTC de cualquier capa de forma inmediata.

La preventa de HYPER – el token nativo de Bitcoin Hyper – acumula una recaudación de más de 1,5 millones de dólares. Dada su utilidad, es la mejor criptomoneda para invertir si confías en un futuro brillante para Bitcoin.

Para adquirir HYPER, empieza por vincular tu wallet en la plataforma de Bitcoin Hyper (nosotros recomendamos usar Best Wallet). Completado este paso, procede a indicar el método de pago que quieres utilizar y la cantidad de tokens que quieres adquirir. En el momento de redacción de este texto, HYPER tiene un precio de 0,012 dólares.

No dejes pasar esta oportunidad y únete a la preventa de HYPER antes de que el token empiece a subir de precio.

BTC BULL – la memecoin número 1 para conseguir exposición a Bitcoin

Para los que buscan maximizar la rentabilidad de su cartera gracias a Bitcoin, BTC BULL es la mejor opción del momento. Esta memecoin capitaliza las subidas de precio de Bitcoin. De esta forma, los usuarios podrán obtener beneficios cuando Bitcoin suba de precio, sin necesidad de tener tokens BTC en su cartera.

BTC BULL consigue esto mediante un sistema de quema de tokens automatizado. Cada vez que BTC supere su ATH en 25.000 dólares, BTC BULL quemará parte de sus tokens. Esto subirá el precio de BTC BULL de forma automática. Es por esto que es una de las mejores altcoins para los que buscan exposición a Bitcoin sin riesgo.

La recaudación de la preventa de BTC BULL está creciendo de forma asombrosa – acumula más de 7,3 millones de dólares desde su lanzamiento. Su token tiene un valor actual de 0,00258 dólares e irá subiendo cada 2 días hasta que termine la preventa.

Conseguir rentabilidad de Bitcoin sin riesgo es una utilidad muy atractiva, por eso BTC BULL tiene tanto éxito. Su preventa terminará pronto, por lo que no esperes más para unirte a esta. Cuando termine, todo apunta a que el precio del token BTCBULL se disparará.

Ethereum (ETH) has dropped 13.6% over the past week, largely due to rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly between Israel and Iran. Despite this recent price slump, Ethereum whales appear undeterred, signalling confidence in the digital asset’s long-term recovery.

Ethereum Whales Are Not Budged Despite Recent Loss

According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by technical trader Mignolet, ETH whales are unfazed by the recent price pullback in the cryptocurrency. Notably, the digital asset has tumbled from $2,869 on June 11 to the mid $2,200 range at the time of writing.

Unlike the double-top pattern observed in 2021 – when Ethereum saw a notable increase in transaction outflows as whales exited near the top – current data suggests that whales are not making similar moves. 

The analyst shared the following comparative chart showing that in previous market cycles, spikes in ETH withdrawals from wallets were typically followed by major price pullbacks. However, such spikes are currently absent, suggesting low exit activity.

In a recent post on X, crypto analyst Ted Pillows added further support to this view, stating that Ethereum whales are actually buying the dip. According to the analyst, wallets holding 10,000 ETH or more collectively added over $265 million worth of ETH during the market pullback on June 21.

Nevertheless, Pillows warned that if ETH fails to break above the $2,350 resistance level soon, it may revisit the $2,100 support. A failure to hold this level could expose the asset to a further decline toward $1,800.

On the other hand, crypto trader Merlijn The Trader offered a more optimistic take. The analyst compared Ethereum’s current price behavior to the accumulation phase seen between 2019 and 2021, stating that “ETH to five-figures isn’t a dream,” implying a long-term bullish outlook remains intact.

Headwinds Brewing For ETH?

Although technical indicators point toward further upside for the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, some market experts opine that ETH may be on the verge of entering a period of downtrend before it resumes its bullish trajectory.

For example, seasoned crypto market expert Aksel Kibar recently remarked that ETH may be preparing for a period of significant downtrend movement. The analyst gave a stark warning of ETH possibly falling all the way down to $900.

Similarly, rising sell-volume for ETH threatens to further disrupt the digital asset’s positive price momentum. At press time, ETH trades at $2,233, up 2.4% in the past 24 hours.

Crypto asset investment products have continued to attract institutional capital for a tenth consecutive week, with CoinShares reporting $1.24 billion in net inflows during the most recent seven-day period.

This sustained trend has now driven total year-to-date (YTD) inflows to $15.1 billion, marking a significant milestone for the sector amid fluctuating market conditions.

The weekly CoinShares report, released earlier today, noted that the strong inflow momentum earlier in the week began to taper toward the end, a development attributed to the US Juneteenth holiday and geopolitical concerns involving US tensions with Iran.

Despite the slight cooldown, the data shows a broad pattern of ongoing institutional engagement in digital asset markets, led by continued interest in Bitcoin and Ethereum-related products.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Continue to Lead Institutional Demand

According to the breakdown, Bitcoin-focused investment products received $1.1 billion in net inflows for the week, marking the second straight week of significant capital entering BTC-related funds.

This occurred despite a broader price correction in the asset, a pattern CoinShares interprets as indicative of investors viewing the dip as a buying opportunity. Supporting this sentiment, short Bitcoin products recorded outflows of $1.4 million, suggesting a decrease in bearish positioning.

Ethereum also maintained its strong performance, with inflows of $124 million marking the ninth consecutive week of positive sentiment for the asset. Cumulatively, this has brought inflows over the nine-week stretch to $2.2 billion, its longest sustained run of institutional buying since mid-2021.

Ethereum’s inflow streak comes amid heightened interest in the network’s staking ecosystem and optimism surrounding future protocol upgrades.

Beyond the two leading digital assets, modest inflows were also recorded in other altcoins. Solana funds saw $2.78 million in inflows, while XRP-based products attracted $2.69 million.

Though smaller in magnitude, these figures point to continued interest in diversified exposure beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, particularly in assets with strong infrastructure use cases.

Regional Trends Reflect Diverging Global Sentiment

On a geographic basis, the US market once again led in volume, with $1.25 billion of the total inflow attributed to American investors. Canada and Germany also recorded net inflows, with $20.9 million and $10.9 million respectively.

In contrast, Hong Kong and Switzerland experienced outflows of $32.6 million and $7.7 million, highlighting a degree of regional divergence in sentiment and positioning.

CoinShares Head of Research James Butterfill commented that while US inflows remain dominant, the week’s slowdown in the latter half may reflect broader market hesitance tied to holidays and geopolitical events.

Despite this, the aggregate YTD figure of $15.1 billion reflects growing institutional comfort with digital asset investment vehicles. The continued inflows come amid evolving regulatory discussions across major markets, including potential approvals for new digital asset products and tax incentives for investors.

Bitcoin stayed surprisingly steady this week as global conflicts flared. According to André Dragosch, Head of Research at Bitwise Europe, the coin’s recent swings have quieted down.

Investors saw less shake and rattle even after a 7% dip over the weekend. That calm suggests traders aren’t spooked by every headline anymore.

Bitcoin Volatility Drops Below Stocks

Based on reports from Bitwise Europe, Bitcoin’s 60-day realized volatility sat at about 27–28% as of June 23. That figure trails the S&P 500 at roughly 30% and lags behind the Nasdaq 100 near 35%.

I don’t now who needs to hear this but #bitcoin continues to exhibit a lower realized vol than major US equity indices despite record high geopolitical uncertainty. pic.twitter.com/nnTW08hera

— André Dragosch, PhD (@Andre_Dragosch) June 23, 2025

Calm Amid Geopolitical Tension

The recent low volatility is especially clear against rising Middle East clashes. News of US bombing in Iran knocked the crypto down 6% to under $100,000. In past crises—like the start of the Russia-Ukraine war in February 2022—Bitcoin’s 60-day realized volatility jumped to around 60–65%. Back then, traders sold in panic. Now, most buyers and sellers seem to hold their ground.

Long-Term Holders Extend Their Grip

Based on reports from Glassnode analysts, long-term holders have hoarded a record 14.53 million BTC on a 30-day average as of June 23. That’s about 70% of the crypto asset’s full 21 million supply.

Over 30% of coins in circulation rest with just 216 large entities—think ETFs, exchanges, custodians, and corporate treasuries. When so many coins sit idle, there’s less to fuel frantic trading.

Institutional Bets Support Price Outlook

Market veterans like BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes and OSL’s Eugene Cheung see this calm as a base for higher prices. They predict Bitcoin will clear $100,000 and stay there as central banks print cash and big investors pile in.

Some analysts even eye levels above $150,000 by the end of 2025. Such forecasts rest on steady demand and shrinking supply on exchanges.

What Comes Next For Bitcoin

The lower swings hint that Bitcoin is maturing, with more people treating it like a regular asset. A quieter market can draw in more cautious investors. But it won’t stay this tame forever.

Big holders could still spark big moves if they sell large chunks. For now, Bitcoin’s steadier path may mark a turning point—one that blends old-school market behavior with the new forces shaping crypto.

On-chain data suggests the Bitcoin miners are currently quite underpaid. Could this trigger a selloff from these chain validators?

Bitcoin Miners Are Extremely Underpaid According To This Model

As pointed out by analyst IT Tech in a CryptoQuant Quicktake post, the Miner Profit/Loss Sustainability has recently seen a sharp negative spike for Bitcoin. The “Miner Profit/Loss Sustainability” refers to an on-chain indicator that compares miner revenue with mining difficulty.

When the value of the metric is highly positive, it means the miners are earning a high income relative to the difficulty level imposed by the blockchain for mining new blocks. Such a trend can imply that these chain validators may be becoming overpaid.

On the other hand, the indicator being deep in the negative region can suggest miners may be underpaid as they are pulling in a low revenue despite high difficulty.

Now, here is the chart shared by the analyst that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Miner Profit/Loss Sustainability over the past year:

As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Miner Profit/Loss Sustainability has witnessed a plunge deep into the red zone, a sign that miner revenue has dropped relative to the difficulty.

The indicator is now flashing an ‘extremely underpaid’ signal for the miners. Historically, whenever the miners are under financial pressure, they participate in some selling to keep the electricity bills paid. Given the current state of this cohort, it’s possible that BTC could soon face elevated selling pressure from them.

So far, miner selling has actually trended down, as the trend in another indicator suggests.

The chart shows the log-scaled data of the Bitcoin Miner Selling Power, an indicator that measures the ratio between BTC miner outflows (that is, the amount going out of their wallets) against their total holdings.

It would appear that the metric has recently been sharply moving down, a potential indication that miners have been participating in reduced selling relative to their reserves. Considering the pressure that these chain validators are under, however, it only remains to be seen how long this balance lasts.

In some other news, the total amount of computing power employed by the miners, the “Hashrate,” has crashed, as the 7-day average data of the metric shows.

Earlier in the month, the Bitcoin Hashrate rose to a new all-time high (ATH) earlier in the month, but has plummeted since then, meaning that the miners haven’t been able to sustain their upgrades, providing another confirmation of the pressure the miners are under.

BTC Price

Bitcoin crashed close to the $98,000 mark yesterday, but its price has since jumped back up to $101,100.
