As Bitcoin struggles to regain momentum, concerns around Michael Saylor’s Strategy are once again resurfacing. With Bitcoin recently falling toward $58,000 and Strategy’s stock dropping sharply, some investors fear the company could enter a so-called “death spiral.” However, Bitcoin analyst Adam Livingston argues that the situation is not nearly as dire as many think. Livingston recently ran a three-year stress test on Strategy using an extremely bearish scenario. The model assumes Bitcoin falls to $26,611 within six months, Strategy’s market net asset value ratio (mNAV) drops below 0.50x, capital markets shut down, and the company loses access to new funding.…

Stablecoins have moved from a crypto-policy-side market to Kevin Warsh’s Federal Reserve’s dollar-policy agenda. Fed Governor Christopher Waller used the central bank’s June 22 dollar conference to frame digital assets, including stablecoins, as part of the research agenda around the dollar’s international role.

They changed the context: stablecoin flows now sit alongside dollar funding, payment rails, cross-border capital movement, safe-asset demand, and the question of how private token issuers touch public dollar infrastructure. That reframes the market. Dollar-backed stablecoins are still crypto trading tools, payment tokens, and regulatory…

Pi Network is scheduled to release roughly 1.21 billion tokens this year, about 6.5 million a day, into a market already pinned near the coin’s all-time low.

Pi Network spent years building one of the largest communities in crypto, and in 2026 that community is staring at a number that hangs over everything: roughly 1.21 billion Pi tokens are scheduled to unlock this year, releasing into circulation at a pace of around 6.5 million coins a day.…

Notably, the pressure intensified after Rosen Law Firm announced an investigation into possible securities claims involving Strategy and Saylor.

Ethereum and Russell 2000 Weekly…
