Summary

Brief Summary: Bitcoin fell below $70K this morning, trading near $69,400 after hitting a seven-week low area. Ethereum is holding near $1,975, still struggling around the $2,000 psychological level. About $744 million in crypto liquidations hit the market over 24 hours as leverage unwound during the selloff. Digital asset investment products saw $1.67 billion in outflows last week, the second-largest weekly withdrawal of 2026. Bitcoin funds posted their largest weekly outflow of the year, while XRP and HYPE were rare bright spots with inflows. Strategy’s first disclosed Bitcoin sale continues weighing on sentiment, even though the company sold only 32 BTC worth about $2.5 million. Mt. Gox moved 10,306 BTC, worth about $739 million, to two addresses, creating fresh concern about potential supply pressure. CME’s new 24/7 crypto derivatives market saw about $50 million in opening weekend trading. Robinhood closed its $180 million WonderFi acquisition, expanding its Canadian crypto footprint. Reuters reported a policy split on stablecoins, with the Bank of England more skeptical and Fed official Christopher Waller more supportive. Japan’s ruling-party panel wants the country to promote yen stablecoins and create a legal framework for crypto ETFs. Vitalik Buterin proposed options-based synthetic assets to reduce DeFi liquidations and reliance on real-time oracles. Binance launched access to U.S. stocks and ETFs, pushing further into traditional brokerage territory. Dogecoin gained access to the Paxos network used by PayPal and Venmo. BitMine acquired 26,497 ETH despite weak Ethereum price action. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
