In the latest crypto news, bitcoin surged to an all-time high of $106,000 but faced a significant setback in recent trading sessions. the surge is attributed to a rare confluence of factors that have yielded widespread institutional interest across multiple sectors.1. **maximum market leverage**: the current market dynamics are nearing an extreme level of leverage, as evidenced by the corresponding rise in market volatility with btcxbt up +0.74% and shd up -14% respectively over 4 weeks.2. **short-position liquidations & increased buying pressure**:the number of liquidated short positions has reached unprecedented levels—over 175 million usd—and this liquidated pressure contributes significantly to the overall buying pressure on bitcoin even amidst broader systemic risks within global central banks.3. **scheduled interest rate increases (5th june)**:the anticipated decision on escalating interest rates from fed chairman jerome powell at noon est also likely accelerated profit-taking efforts after yesterday’s rally when btc was briefly above $107k before pulling back significantly later today around lunchtime (<$99k).<>sourcecz invited tradingblast for insights regarding these phenomena following our inquiry into cryptoquant’s  proximity effects—and we’d like your professional input too! please join us early next week for further updates+analysis surrounding: • financial impact to miners and consumers • opportunities for new investors bottom-line we hope you’ll share some valuable insight! overall although bitcoin enjoys mainstream adoption thanks less than ever so far found within traditional tools—adverse influences remain encouraging efforts towards embracing fintech innovations globally—fueling optimism among traders seeing potential future gains despite near-term setbacks experienced today. price forecasts“overbased topline values”: would buoy levels from presently anticipated retractions back around $95k-$98k but capping any higher “than expected” boost over next two weeks exceeding $110k old people pushing new swings higher if approached easing pre-election positives elevating estimates reaching upwards past upper-$125c range as recent updates discussed online <1500 characters include tweet image post quote share video removing watermarks with copymaticus rear professors follow twitter @traderstips4u

Sberbank, Russia’s largest financial institution, has announced the issuance of the first batch of structured bitcoin bonds. The instruments are currently offered to a limited number of qualified investors, but the bank expects to provide more crypto-linked securities soon. Sberbank Pioneers Bitcoin Bonds in Russia Cryptocurrency is slowly starting to become a mainstream asset in Russia, as institutions like banks are including these as part of their investment portfolio offerings. Sberbank, Russia’s largest bank, with over $550 billion in assets under management (AUM), has started offering bitcoin-structured bonds to its customers. According to local media, the bank is already offering these bonds to a limited number of qualified investors over the counter. A bank spokesperson stated that these bonds presented investors with two different ways for accruing income: the increase in the price of the bitcoin in U.S. dollars, and also the strengthening of the U.S. currency against the ruble. The products, under Russian law, are being priced in Russian rubles. Sberbank would be the first bank to open the cryptocurrency markets to qualified investors. This development follows the central bank’s approval for financial institutions to develop crypto-linked opportunities, including securities, derivatives, and digital financial assets. Nonetheless, the central bank required full capital coverage and individual limits for these instruments, and also warned these institutions against conducting direct cryptocurrency investments. Sberbank stated that the bank aims to expand its cryptocurrency lineup, developing similar cryptocurrency-linked bonds that could be listed on the Moscow Exchange. This means that similar bonds linked to cryptocurrencies like ether, solana, or XRP could also be launched by the bank soon. Similarly, the bank will also offer other instruments, like futures, to its customers through its investment platform after their launch on the Moscow Exchange. The exchange has announced that it intends to do so in June, opening the cryptocurrency-linked securities market to more qualified investors. The announcement shows Russian investors have an appetite for this kind of crypto instrument, which can produce high gains due to bitcoin’s price growth potential.

Bitcoin ETFs suffered a third consecutive day of outflows with $286 million in redemptions, primarily from Blackrock’s IBIT. In contrast, ether ETFs logged an 11th straight day of inflows, bringing in $78.17 million. Bitcoin ETFs See Third Straight Day of Outflows as Ether ETFs Extend Green Run The momentum that once fueled bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) seems to have hit a wall. With another $286 million in outflows, Monday, June 2, marked the third straight day of investor retreat from the asset class. Leading the pullback was Blackrock’s IBIT, which saw $130.44 million exit the fund, followed by Ark 21Shares’ ARKB (-$73.91 million) and Fidelity’s FBTC (-$50.11 million). Even Grayscale’s GBTC wasn’t spared, shedding $16.47 million. Only Bitwise’s BITB posted a modest inflow of $3.41 million, not nearly enough to reverse the tide. Total value traded across bitcoin ETFs remained strong at $2.33 billion, but net assets edged down to $125.47 billion, reflecting cautious investor sentiment. In stark contrast, ether ETFs continued their impressive rally, chalking up an 11th consecutive day of net inflows, this time totaling $78.17 million. Blackrock’s ETHA led the charge with $48.40 million, while Fidelity’s FETH followed with $29.78 million. There were no outflows reported across ether ETFs

Công ty giáo dục 🇺🇸 Classover Holdings đã ký thỏa thuận với Solana Growth Ventures, phát hành trái phiếu chuyển đổi $500M với lãi suất 7%/năm. Khoảng 80% lợi nhuận từ trái phiếu sẽ được dùng để mua SOL. Kết hợp với kế hoạch phát hành cổ phiếu trị giá $400M trước đó, Classover có thể huy động tới $900M cho chiến dịch này. Công ty hiện hold 6.472 SOL (~$1,05M) và cũng đang xem xét mua thêm các lô token SOL bị khóa với giá chiết khấu để mở rộng kho dự trữ.

The cryptocurrency’s price rose past $106K on Tuesday morning, as both stock and crypto markets saw positive gains. Stocks Climb, Bitcoin Follows Bitcoin resumed its upward trend on Tuesday, climbing as high as $106,813.58 as stocks and the broader crypto market posted similar gains. Tech stocks led the rally for the S&P 500 and positive news about a slight jump in job openings also appears to have buoyed markets. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that there were 7.4 million job openings in April, up by 191,000 compared to March. The data was reported in the Bureau’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, with arts, entertainment, mining, and logging industries leading the charge in terms of increased opportunities. Crypto markets were up 1.94% reaching a market capitalization of $3.34 trillion, according to Coinmarketcap. The S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow, all rose 0.69%, 1.04%, and 0.52% respectively at the time of writing, according to CNBC. Interestingly, Newhedge shows that bitcoin’s correlation with the S&P 500 is around 54%, down from roughly 80% just a few months ago. “Stocks up and so are long-dated treasuries, which takes out two FUD narratives at once,” said Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas in a post on X. (“FUD” refers to “fear, uncertainty, and doubt.”) Indeed, the yield on the U.S. 30-year Treasury is down ever so slightly by 0.002% according to CNBC, but the 10-year Treasury yield is up by 0.01% (bond prices move opposite to yields). This means sentiment on the attractiveness of U.S. government debt is mixed, but certainly not as bearish as it was just a couple of weeks ago when worries of excessive debt pushed long-term bond yields higher, bond prices lower, and triggered a record-breaking bitcoin rally. Overview of Market Metrics Bitcoin’s current price at the time of reporting is $106,015.42, a modest rebound of 1.47% over the past 24 hours. However, the weekly trend remains in the red, with prices still down 3.77% over the past seven days. The asset traded between $104,100.01 and $106,813.58, reflecting a relatively narrow range and cautious optimism in the market. Trading activity ticked higher, with 24-hour volume rising 6.47% to $47.35 billion, as traders positioned for a potential breakout. Bitcoin’s market capitalization increased by 1.50% to $2.1 trillion, while its dominance dropped slightly by 0.26% to 64.06%.

Shares of Classover Holdings Inc., a Nasdaq-listed educational technology company, jumped 39.85% on Monday after it announced plans to raise up to $500 million to build a SOL +2.52% -based corporate treasury. SOL is the native token of the Solana blockchain. In a statement released Monday, the New York-headquartered company said that it has signed a securities purchase agreement with Solana Growth Ventures LLC to issue up to $500 million in senior secured convertible notes. The company expects an initial closing and funding of $11 million to occur shortly after customary closing conditions are satisfied. Under the terms of the deal, Classover must dedicate up to 80% of the net proceeds to purchasing SOL, according to the statement. The latest funding arrangement builds upon Classover's previously announced $400 million equity purchase agreement, bringing the company's combined potential financing capacity to $900 million earmarked for its SOL purchases, the company said. "This agreement marks a significant milestone in the Company’s strategic initiative to build a SOL-based treasury reserve," said Stephanie Luo, CEO of Classover. "By entering into this agreement, Classover reaffirms its strong commitment to becoming a leader in blockchain-aligned financial strategy and positioning itself among the first publicly traded companies to directly integrate SOL into its treasury operations." Upon the announcement, Classover's stock surged 39.85% on Nasdaq, closing at $3.72 on Monday, before slipping 1.88% in after-hours trading, according to Yahoo Finance data. Its stock price has fallen 48.19% over the past month, and is down 7.23% year-to-date. Founded in 2020, Classover specializes in live online education for students in grades K-12. It launched an SOL treasury strategy last month to "enhance its balance sheet with a high-performance, scalable digital asset." Classover joins a growing list of companies adopting Solana accumulation strategies. Several firms, such as SOL Strategies, DeFi Development Corp., Upexi, and Janover, have been building SOL reserves either alongside their core operations or as a pivot from their original business focuses.

United Arab Emirates’s securities regulator has introduced the finfluencer license to regulate and supervise the promotion of digital financial content in the United Arab Emirates. Redefining Regulators’ Role in Digital Economy The Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) has launched what it calls the Middle East’s first “Finfluencer” license, a regulatory move designed to formalize and supervise digital financial content across the United Arab Emirates. This initiative aims to establish a clear governance framework for individuals offering investment analysis, recommendations and financial promotions on digital platforms. H.E. Waleed Saeed Al Awadhi, CEO of the SCA, emphasized the strategic importance of this development. “Introducing the Finfluencer license is not merely a regulatory measure; it is a strategic move to redefine the role of regulators in the digital economy,” Al Awadhi stated. According to the SCA executive, his organization hopes to elevate global benchmarks of market integrity and nurture a disciplined and trustworthy financial environment. He added that the SCA sees itself as enabling transformative change via its “forward-thinking” regulatory models that evolve with the financial and investment landscape. A statement released by the regulator said the new license is available to individuals who provide financial or investment recommendations concerning regulated products or entities within the UAE, whether through digital or traditional media. Eligible applicants must register with the SCA and adhere to all applicable regulatory obligations, ensuring the highest standards of investor protection and bolstering public trust in local capital markets. The UAE regulator’s move to regulate finfluencers comes amid an explosion of individuals on social media platforms who offer financial advice, tips and recommendations. Many of these finfluencers have followings far exceeding those of traditional financial advisors. However, quite often these finfluencers lack formal financial qualifications, industry experience or regulatory oversight. This creates a high risk of them providing unverified, misleading or even harmful financial advice. To illustrate, a study by Coinwire found that memecoin-promoting social media influencers on X with more than 200,000 followers saw 39% of investors acting on their advice generate negative returns after just one week and 89% after three months. Therefore, to rein in influencers and protect UAE-based investors, the SCA now requires finfluencers offering financial recommendations related to the purchase, sale, or holding of a financial product or virtual asset to register with it. This requirement also applies to those who engage the public through content, visuals, advice, recommendations and discussions related to financial investments or specific financial products within the UAE.

Yep, that Ross Ulbricht — founder of Silk Road, serving life in prison — is now selling mementos from his time behind bars. His prison ID card just sold at auction for 5.5 BTC, which is roughly $475,000. That's one hell of a collector's item... or a flex for some crypto OG. What’s next? His commissary ramen stash? 😏

,“but what about cryptocurrency? or, you know, chainlink?”executives plan to invest significantly in blockchain technologies going forward. the top four specific sectors are renewable energy systems (47 percent), chip design and manufacturing (45 percent), artificial intelligence software and hardware development (43 percent) — which capture much of the ongoing demand for semiconductors — and digital assets such as cryptocurrencies and digital currencies issued by central banks (39 percent). the prior three sectors show greater interest than digital assets for now but also progress within those areas has been less uniform. “progress is not universal,” segal says.the financial sector was most willing to share its blockchain aspirations with us this time around—38% of executives answered more detailed questions about their organizations’ use cases or plans than in the past two reports combined including specific use-case adoption rates rather than simply saying they’re investing funds into a shared infrastructure between multiple companies without further elaboration on how it might work out long-term.” don't miss it every page worth looking at! community page's interview prominent.,-> solana has the clearest roadmap.... the overview section highlights that kpmg sees link’s role bringing blockchains together as an important part driving adoption next up.

According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass indicates that if Bitcoin surpasses $108,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of short positions on major centralized exchanges (CEX) will reach $822 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin falls below $105,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of long positions will amount to $635 million. BlockBeats notes that the liquidation chart does not precisely display the number of contracts pending liquidation or the exact value of liquidated contracts. Instead, the chart's bars represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to nearby clusters, indicating intensity. Therefore, the liquidation chart illustrates the extent to which the target price reaching a certain level will be affected. A higher "liquidation bar" suggests that once the price reaches that level, there will be a stronger reaction due to liquidity waves.

🇺🇸 Bank of America warns USD may continue to decline in the summer Bank of America states that the U.S. dollar has fallen nearly 9% since the start of the year and may weaken further in the summer due to the impact of the tariff war, with the DXY currently at 98.71. Gold and Bitcoin may continue to rise in price. Bank of America warns that policy uncertainty and high public debt are increasing borrowing costs, while the Fed’s ability to act is limited due to inflationary pressures.

Ethereum Foundation just renamed its “Protocol R&D” team to simply “Protocol” and reorganized roles around three areas: L1 scaling, blobspace expansion, and user experience. Heavy hitters like Tim Beiko and Alex Stokes are leading, and Vitalik says L1 will scale ~10× in a year before “taking a breather” They even laid off some PR&D staff to streamline things—but the moves feel more cosmetic than structural. Yes, they’re focusing more, but removing a few heads and swapping titles doesn’t fix the deeper organizational drag that's been slowing progress.The ambition to expand layer‑1 tenfold is bold, but without addressing the Foundation’s bureaucracy and coordination inefficiencies, it’s hard to see how such scaling gets shipped quickly . Scaling blobs and UX tweaks are fine—but none of this tackles the core problem: moving from research to production requires leaner processes and clearer accountability.In practice, that means better sprint management, faster decision cycles, more developer buy‑in, and less reliance on high‑level vision statements. Ethereum’s biggest bottleneck isn’t its roadmap—it’s how slow it runs those engines. A few name changes and layoffs won’t change that dynamic. If the Foundation can’t ship faster, Ethereum may still trail behind more agile platforms, regardless of lofty goals.https://blog.ethereum.org/2025/06/02/announcing-protocol

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) announced a new preferred stock issue called STRD, offering 2.5 million shares with a 10% annual dividend. The primary goal is to raise funds to buy more Bitcoin and support working capital.Between May 26 and June 1, they bought 705 BTC—roughly $75 million at an average price near $106,495 per coin. That brings their total Bitcoin holdings to 580,955 BTC, with a long-term average cost of about $70,023.They’re treating Bitcoin as their core treasury asset, leveraging it to attract investors with yield, while using the capital to acquire more Bitcoin. But that model depends heavily on Bitcoin continuing to rise.To me, Strategy has become a steady Bitcoin machine—always pumping until something breaks. But what happens if BTC drops or preferred stock yields outpace returns?
