🚨 Bitcoin Depot has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and shut down more than 9,000 Bitcoin ATMs across North America.
CEO Alex Holmes said stricter regulations, transaction limits, rising lawsuits, and state-level restrictions made the Bitcoin ATM business increasingly difficult to operate.
The company reported:
A 49.2% YoY revenue decline in Q1 2026
A $9.5M net loss, compared to $12.2M profit a year earlier
📊 Why it matters: The shutdown removes one of the largest retail cash-to-Bitcoin access networks and could increase expectations for tighter compliance and regulation across the crypto ATM sector.
🚨 Aave has restored WETH loan-to-value ratios across multiple V3 markets after emergency restrictions introduced during the April rsETH exploit. $ETH $AAVE The updated limits now apply across:
• Ethereum Core
• Ethereum Prime
• Arbitrum
• Base
• Mantle
• Linea
The restrictions were originally imposed after attackers exploited a bridge linked to Kelp DAO’s rsETH, minting around $292M in unbacked tokens and draining roughly $230M in ETH from Aave using the tokens as collateral.
Recovery efforts have reportedly recovered most of the unbacked rsETH, with the remaining shortfall expected to be covered by DeFi United.
📊 Insight: The restoration of WETH collateral limits could help improve liquidity conditions and leverage activity across affected DeFi ecosystems if recovery efforts remain stable.
🚨 Micron Technology insiders sold around $52.4M in stock over the past three months as shares traded near all-time highs. $BTC $ETH Despite the insider selling, Micron posted massive growth:

Non-GAAP EPS: $12.20 vs $8.79 expected
Q3 guidance: $33.5B revenue and $19.15 EPS

🚨 Lido contributors explained why Chainlink CCIP was selected for cross-chain deployment of wstETH. $ETH The decision comes as bridge security faces increased scrutiny after major exploits led to nearly $3B in stolen funds, including recent Kelp / LayerZero-related issues.
Contributors said bridge infrastructure directly impacts:
Token security
Operational safeguards
Issuer control mechanisms

🚨 KDDI is investing $65M into Coincheck Group through the purchase of 28.5 million newly issued shares at $2.28 each. $BTC $XRP The deal would give KDDI a 14.9% stake in Coincheck and is expected to close in June.

$BTC 🐋 Whales are beginning to offload positions as Bitcoin slides toward the $85K region, increasing pressure across the market and raising concerns about short-term momentum.
Large wallet activity often plays a major role during volatile periods, and traders are now closely watching whether buyers can absorb the selling pressure at current levels.
📊 Insight: The $85K zone is shaping up to be one of the most important support areas in the current market structure. If bulls successfully defend this range, Bitcoin could stabilize and attempt another move higher. But if whale distribution continues and support weakens, volatility could accelerate quickly across the broader crypto market.
🚨 NVIDIA has officially surpassed a $5.5 trillion market cap. $BTC The AI-driven rally continues as Nvidia remains one of the biggest winners of the global artificial intelligence boom.
$BTC $ETH 🚨 The American Bankers Association is urging banks to contact senators ahead of this week’s Senate vote on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act.
The ABA says the updated bill could still allow crypto firms to offer yield-like rewards tied to stablecoins, potentially pulling funds away from traditional bank deposits.
The group estimates yield-bearing stablecoins could grow from around $300B today to as much as $2T, while U.S. regulators continue debating the broader impact on the banking system.
Updated bill text is expected soon, with Senate discussions and amendments likely this week.

🚨 Bitdeer mined 193.8 Bitcoin this week and sold all of it, continuing its no-$BTC -reserve strategy.
The Nasdaq-listed mining company said it has not been holding Bitcoin since February, choosing instead to immediately liquidate mined coins rather than accumulate them on its balance sheet.
The move highlights the different approaches miners are taking in the current market, with some stacking BTC while others prioritize cash flow and operational stability.
🚨 A Manhattan federal judge has modified a restraining order involving Arbitrum DAO, allowing an onchain governance vote on the transfer of $71M in frozen Ethereum to a wallet controlled by Aave. $ETH $AAVE The proposed transfer is tied to recovery efforts following the rsETH exploit. Judge Margaret Garnett stated that anyone participating in the governance process — including proposing, voting, or executing the transfer — would not be violating the freeze order.
The ruling preserves the legal claims connected to roughly $877M in unpaid terrorism judgments against North Korea, while also allowing Aave’s recovery process to continue.
The transfer is not final yet and still requires a separate binding governance vote after delegates previously showed support during a Snapshot temperature check.
