$BTC dolphin wallets (100-1,000 BTC)
are still accumulating, but the pace is slowing.

The 1-year change remains positive at +381K BTC, far above the negative levels seen near previous cycle bottoms.

Accumulation isn't accelerating anymore, but it's not capitulation either.

Whales Aren't Dumping $BTC - Here's Why

According to analyst CryptoZeno, unrealized profits among large Bitcoin holders (especially for long-term whales) have been shrinking. A significant portion of the paper gains accumulated during the previous rally has been wiped out by the recent correction.

At first glance, that sounds bearish. But there's an important detail: short-term whales are sitting close to break-even, not on massive profits.

Historically, the biggest waves of selling tend to happen when newer large holders are deep in profit and eager to lock in gains. that's not the case today.

Instead, the data points to a market that's cooling off rather than breaking down.
Long-term holders are still holding despite lower profits, leverage has declined, and unrealized gains have moved back toward historical averages after an overheated period.

This looks more like a reaccumulation phase than the start of a prolonged bear market.
The excess speculation is being flushed out, but the structural picture remains far healthier than during previous cycle tops

Why July 1 Could Be a Key Date for $XRP

$BTC often grabs most of the regulatory headlines, but this time the spotlight is back on $XRP P. According to a recent Coinpedia article, July 1 could become an important date for Ripple's position in California.

What caught my attention isn't just the deadline itself, but how much uncertainty still surrounds crypto regulation at the state level. Markets usually focus on prices, yet decisions made in courtrooms and government offices can end up having a much bigger long-term impact.

For XRP, this isn't necessarily about an immediate price move. It's about clarity. And in crypto, clarity is often one of the most valuable assets a project can get.

Whether July 1 turns out to be a major turning point or just another step in a longer process, it's definitely a date worth watching.

🇰🇷 South Korea's Biggest Digital Bank Is Testing $SOL For Global Payments

Have you ever wondered what happens when traditional banks stop fighting crypto and start building with it?

That's exactly what we're seeing in South Korea.

Toss Bank has partnered with the Solana Foundation to test blockchain-powered international remittances. The goal isn't another crypto experiment. They want to find out whether stablecoins can move money across borders faster and more efficiently than the systems banks use today.

The bank plans to explore payments, digital assets, and even tokenized assets using Solana's infrastructure.

What if blockchain actually makes financial services better?

Your retirement fund buying crypto?
That's no longer a meme.

A Japanese pension fund managing $132M just announced its first-ever crypto allocation, planning to put 1% of assets into digital assets and gold starting in 2026. The move comes as Japan warms up to crypto regulation and institutions look beyond traditional currencies for diversification.

While the allocation is small, the signal is huge: pension funds are among the most conservative investors on Earth. Add growing ETF adoption around #Bitcoin ( $BTC) and increasing institutional interest in Ethereum, and the walls between TradFi and crypto keep getting thinner. #Macro Insights#

Saylor Calls for Bitcoin Unity as STRC Gives Critics Fresh Ammo

Bitcoiners are arguing over treasury strategy while most of the world still has zero exposure to $BTC. Saylor's message is basically: stop fighting over the 1% and focus on the bigger game.

Strategy's STRC preferred stock has fallen below its $100 issue price, forcing the company to pause new sales after the security slipped to around $88.

That gave critics a fresh opening. Jack Mallers argues these perpetual preferred shares mean Strategy is signing up to "owe money forever," unlike earlier convertibles that could disappear through equity conversion.

So now the debate is bigger than one stock.
It is really about how far Bitcoin treasury companies should go to keep stacking.

Turns out even the biggest Bitcoin bulls can disagree on how to build the rocket.

"Buy-mine-sell is mostly dead" - $BTC mining just became an energy business with BTC as a side hustle

Stark numbers from BelnCrypto deep dive: hashprice near $29 per PH/s/day, fees around 1% on most days - meaning block rewards alone don't cover operating costs anymore. EMCD's Michael Jerlis put it bluntly: "the money lives in the details now." Bitcoin's electrical cost floor sits near $48,694 with realized price around $54,000. Margins are razor thin and competition is brutal heading into a halving that's less than 2 years out.

The strategic shift is fundamental. VNISH's Bradley Peak frames it as moving from "maximum hashrate" to "maximum profitable hashrate" - firmware tuning, fleet segmentation, selective underclocking during weak hashprice, flexible power contracts. Factory firmware can leave 25% of a chip's potential unused while still burning paid electricity. Tuning and curtailment aren't optional anymore they're survival tools at $29 hashprice.

The winners over the next decade won't be the biggest hashrate holders - they'll be the best-positioned energy operators. Cheap power, flexible load rights, heat reuse, demand response participation, AI/HPC hybrid revenue. Jerlis's framing is sharp: "Public miners are becoming Al data centers that mine on the side." The pure buy-mine-sell crowd is the most exposed group right now.

This connects directly to the 10% difficulty drop and 28% hashrate decline I've covered recently - the weakest, least efficient operators are already being filtered out. "The garage era is over, and honestly, that's healthy."

Bitcoin may still be far from a true market bottom, according to CryptoQuant's latest analysis.

The firm's proprietary PnL Index Signal suggests $BTC remains stuck in a transitional phase, with neither the extreme optimism typically seen at market tops nor the deep capitulation that often marks major bottoms.

Analysts note that previous cycle lows were usually accompanied by widespread panic, heavy losses, and aggressive selling from weaker hands. So far, current market conditions have not reached those sentiment extremes.

Instead, the data points to a period of stagnation and consolidation, where both retail and institutional participants remain cautious. Without a clear capitulation event or a strong shift in demand, Bitcoin may struggle to establish a definitive cyclical floor.

- CryptoQuant's PnL Index indicates Bitcoin has yet to show the classic bottoming signals seen in past cycles, suggesting the current consolidation phase could persist before a sustainable recovery begins.

Cumulative net flows for spot #BitcoinETFs have fallen to $53.4 billion, down from a peak of $63 billion in October 2025. Galaxy Research said the daily outflows are continuing to deepen. Bitcoin is trading at $64,167 at the time of writing, down 17.4% over the past month, with rising US #inflation and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East adding pressure on the asset.

Billionaire Rejects Al Bubble: 80% of His Portfolio Is Still in Bitcoin

Ricardo Salinas is not trying to catch the Al wave. He is looking at the hottest trade on Wall Street and basically saying: no thanks.

The billionaire says 80% of his liquid portfolio now sits in $BTC, after he kept buying through the brutal slide from above $120,000 to nearly $60,000.

Salinas framed it not as a degen bet, but as classic value investing with a Bitcoin twist. No stocks. No bonds. Just Bitcoin, plus some gold and silver miners connected to his family's mining roots in Mexico.

His view lands right as investors debate whether Al hype has been draining capital from crypto markets.

Turns out not everyone wants to chase data centers when digital scarcity is sitting right in front of them.

The $BTC vs $ETH Question Every Trader I Know Is Arguing About

Every time I bring up portfolio allocation in my trading group, the same debate starts again: $BTC or $ETH for the next few months. Nobody ever fully agrees, and honestly, neither do I.

In my experience, the case for Bitcoin usually comes down to stability and dominance. When uncertainty rises, capital tends to find its way back to $BTC first. I've watched that pattern play out more than once, and it's part of why I never fully ignore it.

On the other side, the $ETH argument is usually built around upcoming network upgrades, L2 growth, and staking activity. From what I've tracked, ecosystem development tends to attract steady accumulation even when price action stays flat.

I personally go back and forth. Some weeks I lean toward Bitcoin simply because it tends to move first and altcoins follow. Other weeks, the activity I see in the Ethereum ecosystem makes me think it's undervalued relative to where the broader market sits.

So instead of giving you my answer, I'd rather ask: which one are you leaning toward heading into next quarter, and why? I'm genuinely curious whether most traders see this the same way my group does, or if I'm in the minority here.

And 66% of 2026 has been red for ETF flows.

Right now, the picture is still cautious.

UK Political Crisis & TNSR Market Impact

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to resign on Monday following a Labour Party revolt and Andy Burnham's decisive by-election victory. Burnham, who won Makerfield with 54.8% of the vote, is now the overwhelming favourite to become Prime Minister, with prediction markets giving him a 93% chance of taking over in 2026.

The political turmoil has already rattled markets, with 10-year gilt yields rising to 4.81% as investors demand higher premiums for UK debt. Analysts warn that a shift to a more left-wing agenda without a fresh mandate could trigger further negative reactions in both gilt and currency markets.

Meanwhile, TNSR (Tensor) is surging 55% on strong momentum and volume expansion, breaking through key resistance at $0.042 and currently trading near $0.041-$0.044.

My Take: UK political uncertainty is creating volatility across traditional markets, but crypto appears to be trading on its own catalysts today. $TNSR's momentum is impressive, watch for a hold above $0.042 to confirm further upside toward $0.055-$0.065. However, any broader risk-off spillover from the UK situation could cap further gains. For now, $TNSR's technical breakout is the story, but keep an eye on gilt markets for signs of contagion.
