🚫 SEC again postpones decision on Dogecoin, Hedera, and Avalanche ETF
Applications from Bitwise, Grayscale, and VanEck are once again stuck in regulatory limbo.
⚠️ Even after Gensler's departure and Atkins' arrival, the pace of approvals has not changed. Companies are already accusing the SEC of deviating from the principle of 'first come, first served'.
📍 Against this backdrop, the SEC is simultaneously requesting updates on the Solana ETF — a signal that approval for SOL may be closer than for the others.
👉 The market feels: the SEC is not just stalling — it is holding back institutional infrastructure in crypto. $ADA
#CardanoDebate 🇺🇸 SEC cancels strict crypto regulations from the Biden era
🔥 Two key rules — 3b-16 (on DeFi) and the Crypto Custody Rule — have been officially withdrawn. This is part of a large-scale deregulation by the Trump team.
📌 What has been removed: — Mandatory regulation of DeFi protocols as exchanges — Ban on storing crypto outside of banks and licensed brokers — Requirements on cyber risks and derivative reporting — ESG declarations for public companies
💬 Coinbase: “Down with 3b16 and qualified custodians” — now the SEC has retreated.
📈 Conclusion: pressure on DeFi and custodial wallets has been lifted. This frees up the industry — and opens the gates for new growth.
🎮 Ethereum NFTs come alive — traders return to 2022 levels — TheBlock
📈 The number of unique traders in the Ethereum NFT market is approaching 40,000 — the highest since June 2022. The NFT market has clearly emerged from hibernation.
🔑 Key drivers: — OpenSea OS2 has exited beta. — The Voyages program has started awarding "XP" — potential points for a future airdrop.
🔥 But the main thing is not just marketing, but a return to real utility: — Orange Cap Games has acquired the rights to Moonbirds — they are set for integration into the new part of the game Vibes. — Mythical Games is launching FIFA Rivals with NFTs from Adidas — based on the NFL Rivals model.
👾 NFTs are becoming not just JPEGs, but functional modules for IP and gaming. This is no longer a hype market, but the infrastructure of Web3 content.
Ethereum NFTs have undergone a cleansing, and now the market is entering a phase of a new mature cycle. OpenSea is coming back to life, utility is growing, and IP is merging with gaming. It turned out to be too early to bury NFTs. $ETH
#IsraelIranConflict ⚠️ Israel attacks Iran — geopolitical shock hits the markets
❗️Tonight, Israel launched airstrikes on military targets in Iran. There are explosions in Tehran, and sirens in Israel. The USA did not participate but confirmed the operation took place.
🔥 Iran may respond with a massive strike — hundreds of ballistic missiles are at stake. The threat of a large-scale war in the region is becoming real.
📉 Markets are in panic:
— S&P 500: −1.6% — Nasdaq 100: −2% — BTC: −5%, altcoins are bleeding — Brent Oil: +7.3% in a matter of minutes — Gold: $3426 per ounce (+1.3%) — Nikkei, KOSPI — in the red
🇮🇱 Israel has declared a state of emergency across the country. 📍 This is no longer just an "escalation" but the actual beginning of war.
🧠 What this means:
— Markets are reversing in the moment — there is a liquidation of risky assets — Energy, gold, defense — are in focus — Fear is returning, volatility will be off the charts
📌 This is not just a news item — it is a stress test for the entire global market. In such moments, it is important to act not on emotions but according to a plan. Those without a plan will be the last to flee.
⚡️ PancakeSwap has implemented a key update: now cross-chain swaps operate in one click, without bridges, intermediate steps, and the risk of hanging.
📍 Integration with Across Protocol already supports exchanges between BNB Chain, Arbitrum, and Base. The user simply specifies the starting and ending asset (for example, USDC → WETH), and the distributed network of relayers automatically selects the optimal route.
📊 This solves two problems at once: — The complexity of DeFi for newcomers — The vulnerability of bridges, which cost the market billions
✔️ Swaps occur instantly — without locks, without manual bridges, without fear for assets.
🔼 This is a step towards true mass adoption: simplicity + security = a foundation for institutional interest. In conjunction with ERC-7683 and the Across infrastructure, this could become the standard for the entire industry.
If DeFi becomes as convenient as payment on Amazon — liquidity will go where it's easier. PancakeSwap is taking the first real step towards that reality. #Cake $CAKE
🚀 Aptos breaks trading volume record on DEX — the network accelerates growth — TheCoinRepublic
🌑 The Aptos network recorded a historic high: $183 million in trading volume on decentralized exchanges in a single day (data from DeFiLlama). This is the best result since the blockchain's inception.
📊 Key metrics: — Stablecoins in the network: $1.32 billion — an absolute record. — Active addresses in June: 6.7 million, of which 500K are new. — Growth in DEX volumes boosts revenue for dApps and overall activity.
🔼 Aptos is quickly becoming one of the top L1 players of 2025. A steady influx of liquidity and users is forming a strong foundation for the DeFi ecosystem.
📈 This is not just a one-time wave, but systematic growth: metrics, revenue, and decentralization go hand in hand. Aptos is not just an alternative, but a full-fledged platform for a new cycle. $APT
It seems like mostly positive news, it seems the altcoin market has been falling for several years, it seemed we had hit bottom, but no, it somehow manages to find a new bottom and loses liquidity. If Bitcoin drops a little, there is already panic in the altcoins! I fear to imagine what will happen if Bitcoin also goes down sharply; many projects will simply collapse and many people will lose their last money and faith in the future of digital currencies!$BTC
#TrumpTariffs 💵 The largest bank in France launches a dollar-backed stablecoin on Ethereum and Solana — SG-FORGE
Societe Generale, through its crypto subsidiary SG-FORGE, is launching USDCV — a stablecoin backed by dollars. It will operate on Ethereum and Solana, with reserves held by none other than BNY Mellon — a systemically important bank in the U.S. with $45 trillion in custody.
🕓 Trading will start as early as July 2025. Everything is under the control of EU regulators.
Why is this needed: — Transfers 24/7 without bank windows — Access to dollars without SWIFT and correspondent accounts — Use in DeFi and corporations — An alternative to Tether with a European license
⚠️ Important: the project is not available for residents of the U.S. This is not just a stablecoin — it is Europe’s technological sovereignty and a response to American monopoly in digital finance.
The old world is mastering new rails. It is not a battle against crypto, but its institutional absorption — with licenses, reserves, and signing rights. Welcome to the era of tokenized dollars without Washington.
🔷 ETH storms past $2,800: shorts at risk of $1.8 billion — Cointelegraph
Ethereum broke $2,827 — a 15-week high. This is accompanied by record open interest in futures: $40 billion. The market is overheated with leverage, which is fuel for liquidations.
📈 One major player executed a $31 million profit trade twice in 44 days: • Bought 30,000 ETH at $1,830 • Sold at $2,621 and $2,759 Such confidence from whales only fuels demand.
🔥 In the second quarter, the number of unique ETH addresses increased by 70%, reaching 17.4 million. The most activity is in the Base network (72% of total growth).
📊 Ethereum remains the leader in DeFi — 61% of TVL ($66 billion) is held by it.
⚠️ At $2,900, the market risks liquidating $1.8 billion in shorts. If the level is breached — momentum could instantly push the price to $3,000.
🔼 Fundamentals are also strong: • $90 billion in staking • Growth in on-chain metrics • Institutional interest through ETH-ETF
Ethereum is returning as an asset for growth, income, and the foundational infrastructure of Web3. Next stop — $3K, but there a whole different game begins. $ETH
🚨 SEC may approve Solana ETF as early as July — the market is ready — Cryptopolitan
🧬 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has expedited the review process for applications to launch spot ETFs on Solana.
📊 According to sources, approval is possible within 3–5 weeks. The regulator has requested updates on S-1 forms — this is a potential signal of the final stage. Applications have been submitted by Grayscale, VanEck, 21Shares, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, and Canary Capital.
⚡️ The SEC is interested in whether staking will be included — and, according to industry information, is ready to approve it.
📈 Bloomberg estimates the chances of approving the Solana ETF in 2025 at 90% — the same level as Litecoin. Solana already has a futures ETF — this simplifies the path to launching a spot one.
✔️ After Bitcoin and Ethereum, Solana is becoming the next star of the institutional cycle. If the decision comes in July — this will be a trigger for restarting demand for SOL. Especially if the ETF turns out to have returns from staking — then it will be a matter of competition with ETH at a new level.
The institutional altseason is not a hypothesis — it is a matter of formalization. $ETH $SOL
🚀 Ethereum: $90 billion in staking — new historical maximum — TheDefiant
🔷 A record has been set in the Ethereum network: 34.6 million ETH are locked in staking — that’s nearly $90 billion and 28% of the total supply. This level is not just a number, but a signal: the ecosystem is entering a phase of mature trust.
📈 Key drivers: — Boom in liquid staking (LST, LRT); — Restaking from institutions: clients are preparing for the new generation of “ETH bonds”; — BlackRock is reformatting its portfolio: $561 million in BTC → $100+ million in ETH.
🗣 Amir Forouzani (Puffer Labs): “Interest in ETH as a yield-bearing asset is growing at an explosive rate. We are seeing institutional migration towards Ethereum.”
📊 This is not just growth. This is a shift in the financial paradigm: — ETH = income + infrastructure — Staking = Web3 bond — Locking 28% of the supply = shortage amid rising demand
💡 When liquid ETH goes into staking, the supply tightens. And if demand goes up — the market will face an “inelastic” asset. In such a structure, price spikes can be much more powerful than before. ETH is becoming the central asset of the crypto economy, and institutions have already realized this. $ETH
🌐 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, led by Paul Atkins, is working on conditional regulatory exceptions for crypto companies. The goal is to accelerate the launch of on-chain products and bring the industry back to the U.S., adapting the rules rather than breaking them.
🗣 At a closed roundtable, SEC's Atkins stated: exceptions are an implementation of "Trump's Vision": America should become the crypto capital of the world.
✅ The relaxations will be temporary and targeted — only for those willing to comply with basic conditions: — adherence to AML, — technical audits of smart contracts, — public disclosures, — user protection.
🔥 The SEC is also discussing a rewrite of its rules: DeFi protocols may gain the status of "automated intermediaries," without the requirement to register as brokers or exchanges. This represents a shift in regulatory logic.
💡 If the mechanism works — offshore projects will begin to return. Instead of a conflict of "code vs. law," a hybrid will emerge: code — within the law. This could be the most significant shift in U.S. Web3 regulation in the past five years.
#TradingTools101 Bitcoin: The Prophecy of the Next Surge — From Flows to Fundamentals — CryptoQuant
📈 While the market is stormy due to media noise and the feud between Trump and Musk, Bitcoin is showing the strength of its fundamentals. It has not only held above $100K but is also giving clear signals: a new surge is preparing.
📉 Exchange reserves are falling: From 2.43 million to 2.36 million BTC — a decrease of 2.88% over the week. 👉 This means: sellers are leaving, pressure is easing, confidence is growing. HODL mode activated.
📈 Realized capitalization at ATH: $934.88 billion — a new record. 👉 The average purchase price is rising, new holders are entering the market, ready to hold.
🔥 Outflow from exchanges has intensified: June 6: -6,183 BTC. 👉 Bitcoin is moving to personal storage. Liquidity is falling. This is fuel for supply shortages.
🔎 UTXO Value Bands: Uniform growth from 0.01 to 10K BTC. 👉 All groups — from retail to whales — are buying. No skew. No overheating. Just accumulation.
💡 What does all this mean?
The media is noisy, but on-chain data tells a different story: — There are no sales. — Profit-taking is slowing down. — Whales and retail are synchronously holding.
👉 This is not FOMO. This is preparation. The next phase of growth is already beginning — based on fundamentals, not hype.
Pay attention to this coin, a new partnership with Sony could bring good profits! Astar Network is a multi-chain dApp hub on Polkadot. The platform offers users various features, including dApp staking, L2 solutions, and X-VM (Cross Virtual Machine), compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). $ASTR $ETH
🎮 Sony launches Web3 accelerator "Soneium For All" — Coindesk
💡 The tech giant announced the launch of a new accelerator for Web3 developers — "Soneium For All", aimed at supporting gaming and consumer dApps. Partners of the initiative: Astar Network and Startale Cloud.
🧩 More than 40 projects on ASTR have already been integrated into the ecosystem, and now Sony is betting on supporting developers who expand the utility of Astar and strengthen its position as a key asset within Soneium.
🗣 Maarten Henskens, head of Astar Foundation:
"After the success of Astar Contribution Score on Soneium, the launch of the accelerator is a logical step in the development. We are obligated to support those who are building the future of Web3".
Soneium is turning into a bridge between traditional Sony IP and Web3 infrastructure. This is not just an accelerator — it is a strategic growth point for Astar and a whole wave of gaming dApps. $ETH $ASTR
#MarketRebound 🗣 CEO of Coinbase: «Bitcoin is a better form of money than gold»
Brian Armstrong stated that in the future, bitcoin could compete with gold not only as a store of value but also as a reserve asset for countries.
💬 «Governments may start by holding 1% of their reserves in BTC. But over time, the share of bitcoin could reach or even exceed gold reserves,» he noted.
📈 Armstrong emphasizes: – BTC is easier to store and transfer. – It is limited, digital, and independent of geopolitics. – Already today, crypto is used as an alternative to gold in developing countries.
This statement aligns with the trend — more and more politicians, funds, and economists are comparing bitcoin to digital gold. And now — as a future component of sovereign reserves.
#NasdaqETFUpdate 🧨 JPMorgan: The US economy is 'slowly cracking at the seams', despite upbeat employment reports — DailyHodl
📉 JPMorgan's chief strategist David Kelly told CNBC: behind the headlines of job growth lies a dangerous dynamic. In May, 139,000 jobs were indeed added, but: – Revision for March and April: -95,000. – By households: -600,000. – 625,000 people left the labor force (according to PNC Bank).
🇺🇸 "The economy looks strong only on the surface. But inside, it is losing momentum — slowly, but systematically," warns Kelly.
📌 He emphasizes: – Weakness is spreading across more sectors. – People are leaving the labor market, not just losing jobs. – Demand is falling, companies are cutting investments and hiring. – A domino effect is beginning, which is hard to stop.
⚠️ This is not a crisis in the face — it's a 'silent fracture'. And if the Fed does not change course, the slowdown could turn into a full-scale recession, especially against the backdrop of tight monetary policy and geopolitical uncertainty.
With Bitcoin's sharp rise to ~$116,000, the volume of short liquidations will exceed $8.12 billion, according to Coinglass.
🔥 This is one of the largest potentials for short liquidations in market history.
Such levels are not just technical targets. They are liquidity triggers that can initiate a price 'explosion': – liquidations → forced purchases → price increase → new liquidations.
📊 Institutional algorithms, spot ETFs, and derivative strategies can play this scenario as a 'global long squeeze'.
If BTC breaks through $110K — the market could soar on the rocket thrust of shorts.
🇯🇵 Japan has approved the status of "crypto intermediaries" — a reform for brokers
✅ The Japanese Senate has approved amendments to the Payment Services Act, introducing a new class of participants — crypto intermediaries.
📄 These are companies that will be able to work with digital assets without a full exchange or custodian license, but within a regulated framework. The law will come into effect in June 2026.
⚙️ This approach reduces regulatory barriers for small and medium-sized businesses — especially in Web3, gaming, and fintech. It is a shift from strict control to a flexible architecture of the crypto market.
🇯🇵 Japan reaffirms its status as one of the main technological regulators in Asia. Now, not only licenses but also statuses with risk gradation are becoming tools for industry development.
The new format opens doors for the influx of projects and capital. This is not just a reform — it is an architectural modernization of the country's crypto infrastructure. $BTC
