Bitcoin is trading below below $78,000 as weakening demand from US spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) collides with a buildup of leveraged positions that could deepen selling if key support levels fail. Data from CryptoSlate showed that the largest digital asset trades near $77,400 after briefly clearing $82,000 earlier this month. The retreat came following a more cautious macro backdrop, with traders weighing speculation about a possible US-Iran agreement and its impact on risk assets. However, market analysts point to a deeper structural imbalance within cryptocurrency exchanges that could dictate Bitcoin’s near-term trajectory. Data from Alphractal showed about $14.3 billion in…

Crypto enters the week pinned between a regulatory tailwind and a hawkish Federal Reserve, with Wednesday’s FOMC minutes the first detailed read on the new Fed regime. Hot inflation and resilient jobs data have pushed swap markets to price in the odds of another U.S. interest-rate increase before year-end. Bitcoin , trading near $77,000 after slipping from $80,000, has lost momentum into the release. Kyle Rodda, a senior market analyst at Capital.com, told CoinDesk the rate dynamic “hasn’t really entered the mainstream narrative yet,” reading bitcoin’s stall as an omen for risk assets more broadly. Jennifer Hanny, a partner at…

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could soon introduce a new framework for trading tokenized stocks, according to a Monday report by Bloomberg Law, a move that may accelerate Wall Street firms push to bring traditional securities onto blockchain rails. Bloomberg Law reported that the agency is preparing an “innovation exemption” that could allow trading platforms to offer digital versions of publicly traded securities under a lighter regulatory structure. The proposal could arrive as early as this week, according to people familiar with the matter cited by the publication. The effort would mark one of the clearest signals yet…

Same risk, different day. Fresh U.S. self-defense strikes in southern Iran have reopened the Bitcoin Iran risk trade, but the market is treating the headline as conditional rather than as an automatic crypto selloff. The U.S. military said Monday that it carried out self-defense strikes in southern Iran, including on missile launch sites and boats placing mines, while saying it was using restraint during the ceasefire. That is exactly the kind of development that should have challenged the prior session’s Iran-deal relief trade. Yet the first cross-asset signal was calmer than the headline suggested. Early trading showed mixed Asian shares,…

Ethereum’s [$ETH] supply conditions increasingly tightened as institutional buyers accelerated accumulation across shrinking exchange liquidity throughout 2026. Market behavior also shifted gradually because larger capital pools now absorb $ETH faster than the available supply replenishes exchanges. BitMine later accumulated well over 5 million $ETH, representing roughly 4.5% of the circulating supply beneath current conditions. Weekly purchases also frequently exceeded 40,000 to 100,000 $ETH, while exchange reserves hovered near multi-year lows. Source: SEC.gov That imbalance increasingly reflected $ETH migrating toward staking, treasury reserves, and long-term institutional custody structures. Meanwhile, cumulative Spot ETF inflows surpassed roughly $11 billion, reinforcing sustained demand beneath…

Bitcoin fell below $77,000 as renewed US-Iran tensions escalated and higher inflation concerns led to widespread risk aversion in the markets. At this point, the likelihood of the Fed cutting interest rates in 2026 has decreased, while a well-known figure stated that it is almost impossible for the Fed to cut interest rates this year. Jeffrey Gundlach, CEO of DoubleLine Capital and known as the “Bond King” on Wall Street, assessed the likelihood of the US Federal Reserve cutting interest rates as very low. Appearing on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Jeffrey Gundlach claimed there will be no interest rate…
