Bitcoin $BTC$59,211.32 started the Thursday U.S. session with a fast 5% plunge to $58,000, its weakest level since 2024.
The largest cryptocurrency has since bounced to $59,400, down 2.5% over the past 24 hours. The selloff spread across the broader crypto market. Ether (ETH) dropped to around $1,550, down 5.5%, while solana (SOL) and DOGE$0.07293 posted similar declines.
The move came as memory chip maker Micron (MU) soared following strong earnings Wednesday evening, but much of the rest of mega-cap tech fell, leaving the Nasdaq down 0.4%.
Markets continue to digest not only the capital demands of the AI boom, but the Fed's surprisingly hawkish turn last week under new Chairman Kevin Warsh.
Policymakers signaled that their next move is almost surely going to be a rate hike rather than a rate cut, and that hike could come far sooner than markets had previously expected.

Poised for short-squeeze

While bitcoin remains in a sharp downtrend dating back to October, derivatives data points towards some short-term relief.

The liquidation heatmap shows a bulk of clustered liquidation risk above current prices, not below. That means that a move to the downside is unlikely to be amplified by a cascade of forced selling; the real danger is for those positioned short.
Open interest has risen roughly 0.28% over the past 24 hours, even as price fell by around 3% - signaling that traders aren't closing their shorts, they're doubling down and betting on a breach of the $58,000 level of support. Funding rates are also negative, another sign that the market is paying a premium for downside exposure.
Spot market depth reinforces strength beneath a delicate surface; CoinGlass data shows that there is a total of 6,900 $BTC ($409 million) sat in bids on the order book between the current price and $50,000, while there are just 1,570 $BTC ($93 million) in resting sell orders between the current price at $70,000, creating a bullish skew in terms of supply.
Typically, in scenarios like this, when a clearly overcrowded trade is identified, astute traders and market makers will target that weakness and move the price in the other direction. This could lead to those in shorts closing their positions to avoid paying funding and prevent liquidation.

Bitcoin ($BTC) dropped below $60,000, a key psychological support, on Thursday as losses in megacap technology stocks weighed on investors' broader risk appetite, adding pressure to an already fragile crypto market.

The decline has triggered a classic bearish reversal setup that may push the $BTC price under the $54,000 mark in the coming days.
Key takeaways:

Bitcoin’s break below $60,000 has erased its June gains and activated multiple bearish setups.

Bitcoin’s rounded top and daily bear flag breakdowns are both projecting a downside target below $54,000.

$BTC's rounded top breakdown signals more pain ahead

The $BTC/USD pair fell as much as 4.8% on Thursday, hitting an intraday low near $58,000 and erasing its entire June advance. The pullback also completed what appears to be a rounded top pattern on the four-hour chart.

In technical analysis, a rounded top forms when buying momentum gradually exhausts, shifting the asset from an uptrend to a downtrend in an inverse-U-shaped structure. The pattern officially resolves when the price breaks below the "neckline" or the structure's base support.
By measuring the distance from the top of the dome to the neckline and projecting that same distance downward from the breakdown point, analysts calculate a clear target.
For Bitcoin, this measured downside target sits just under the $54,000 level, representing an approximate 8.9% drop from current prices.
On the daily chart, Bitcoin has simultaneously triggered a bear flag breakdown.

This secondary pattern independently projects an identical move toward the $54,000 zone, adding substantial weight to the bearish case.

Bitcoin MVRV bands increase $54,000 target odds

Bitcoin’s on-chain price bands also point to the same downside area highlighted by the rounded-top and bear-flag setups.
Glassnode’s MVRV pricing bands compare Bitcoin’s market price with its realized price, or the average price at which coins last moved on-chain. In simple terms, they show whether the market is trading at unusually high profit or loss levels.

As of Wednesday, Bitcoin was trading near $60,997, while the 1.0 MVRV band, shown in green, sat around $53,390. That level closely matches the technical downside target near $54,000, making it an important support zone if $BTC extends its decline.
A deeper selloff, however, could push Bitcoin toward the 0.8 MVRV band, shown in blue, near $42,700. Historically, Bitcoin’s major bear-market bottoms have formed around this lower blue band, where unrealized losses become extreme, and capitulation risk rises

🔥 Binance Founder CZ :"If Satoshi Nakamoto Dosen't Move His BTC His Coin Should Be Frozen

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) made noteworthy statements regarding how Bitcoin ($BTC) could be protected against quantum computers in the future and how the $BTC believed to belong to Satoshi Nakamoto should be handled.
Appearing on the Galaxy Brains podcast hosted by Galaxy Research President Alex Thorn, CZ stated that quantum computing is not an insurmountable problem for Bitcoin. According to CZ, quantum-resistant encryption algorithms already exist to counter the risks that quantum computers could pose. The crucial point is whether the Bitcoin community can make such a transition in a coordinated manner.
CZ argued that “doing nothing” regarding the approximately 1 million $BTC, particularly those associated with Satoshi Nakamoto and long inactive, would be a bad choice. According to the Binance founder, if Bitcoin were to transition to a new, quantum-resistant cryptographic structure in the future, the community should give the owners of these addresses a period of 6 to 12 months to move their assets to the new system.
CZ stated that if no activity is observed in the addresses believed to belong to Satoshi during this period, the relevant $BTC should be frozen under the new protocol. In such a scenario, approximately 1 million $BTC could be removed from circulation.
According to CZ, failure to take any action on this matter could mean that these BTCs fall into the hands of the first person or persons who can crack the addresses using quantum computers in the future. CZ stated that this would not be a fair or healthy distribution method.

However, CZ added that the final decision should be made by the Bitcoin community, not by him. The Binance founder said that such a critical decision could be shaped through signaling mechanisms or similar community voting within the Bitcoin ecosystem.
CZ also shared his thoughts on $BNB Chain and the general direction of the crypto sector during the podcast. Reminding viewers that he no longer manages the daily operations of the Binance exchange, CZ stated that this allows him to spend more time with developers and that he is excited about the new features being developed on $BNB Chain.
According to CZ, the new version of $BNB Chain will be faster, less expensive, and have more privacy controls. CZ also offered advice to blockchain developers, saying that major technical updates are better implemented during calmer bear markets rather than bull markets.
CZ, also speaking about RWAs (real-world assets), stated that he was more skeptical about this area about a year or a year and a half ago. He said that initially he wasn’t sure if these assets would actually be tradable and if the industry would embrace the space.
However, CZ expressed surprise at the rapid growth in the RWA space, stating that assets like stablecoins, oil futures, and AI stocks have gained strong acceptance within the crypto community. According to CZ, this indicates that many people worldwide want access to these types of financial assets.
CZ also argued that crypto should not be seen as a separate and isolated sector. According to the Binance founder, crypto should be considered a new technological tool that makes financial transactions faster, cheaper, and more transparent.

Strategy’s co-founder, Michael Saylor, has cited the market drawdown his company faced in the past, yet the company didn’t sell any $BTC even when its debt exceeded its reserves. This comes amid criticism of the company’s approach to buying more $BTC using MSTR and the preferred security STRC, despite current market conditions.

Michael Saylor Points To Bitcoin and USD Reserves Exceeding Debt

In an X post, Saylor noted that their $BTC and USD reserves exceed their debt by around $48 billion. He also mentioned that Strategy has raised over $60 billion of additional capital and invested it in $BTC since 2022.
The Strategy co-founder made this statement in comparison to 2022, when their debt exceeded the combined value of their Bitcoin and cash reserves by around $300 million. Saylor noted that in 2022, the $BTC price traded near $20,000, and they held 130,000 $BTC worth about $2.6 billion.
At the same time, the MSTR stock traded at $24, split-adjusted. Meanwhile, $BTC fell below $16,000, leading to their debt exceeding their reserves and MSTR stock crashing into the $13 range by year-end.
Saylor’s statement comes amid recent criticisms of the company’s Bitcoin accumulation model, with the company selling MSTR and STRC shares to buy more $BTC. The STRC stock recently fell to a record low of around $83, down double digits from its $100 par value.
Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff floated an investor lawsuit against Strategy and Saylor as STRC dropped to record lows. He also opined that the Strategy co-founder may be guilty of fraud, based on his belief that Saylor has violated the SEC’s marketing rules in how he has promoted the STRC stock.

Expert Jumps To Saylor’s Defense

In an X post, Fox and Sky News contributor David Gokhshtein remarked that Bitcoin isn’t sitting at its current price because of Saylor. “Some of you are so desperate to blame one person for every move in the market that you’ve completely lost the plot,” he said.

Comparing Michael Saylor to Do Kwon is fu***ng insane.
Comparing Strategy to Terra Luna is fu***ng insane.
Bitcoin isn’t sitting at its current price because of Saylor.
Some of you are so desperate to blame one person for every move in the market that you’ve completely lost…
— David Gokhshtein () June 20, 2026

Gokhshtein also described the comparison of Saylor to Do Kwon as insane, as well as the comparison of Strategy to Terra Luna. As CoinGape reported, Crypto analyst Ali Martinez drew similarities between STRC and LUNA, suggesting that the former could crash like the latter.
Bitcoin advocate Samson Mow has also jumped to Saylor’s defense amid the recent criticisms. In an X post, he described STRC as a “brilliant instrument.” Mow also remarked that there’s nothing structurally wrong with STRC’s design unless one thinks Bitcoin won’t appreciate in the long term.

A former Ethereum Foundation contributor has warned that Ethereum’s development ecosystem could face a funding crunch within the next three to nine months. This raises concerns about the network’s ability to continue delivering major upgrades and long-term innovation.
Trent VanEpps, who worked at the Ethereum Foundation from 2021 to 2026, said Ethereum may be heading toward a “slow-burning funding crisis.” He explained that this will happen as key funding sources begin to dry up.
According to him, the issue goes beyond a temporary budget gap. It points to deeper structural challenges around how Ethereum funds and supports its core contributors.

Why Funding Is Becoming a Concern

VanEpps estimates that Ethereum’s core development ecosystem requires roughly $30 million per year to support client teams, researchers, coordinators, and protocol developers. He argued that this is a relatively small cost considering the scale of the network. Furthermore, the resources these teams maintain are significant.
However, two major changes are putting pressure on funding.
First, the Ethereum Foundation has been reducing its spending. In 2025, the Foundation introduced a treasury plan aimed at lowering annual spending from 15% to around 5% by 2030. This is meant to preserve its remaining funds.
Second, Ethereum’s Client Incentive Program (CIP), a four-year initiative that helped fund client teams through staking rewards, expired in April 2026. So far, no replacement program has been announced.
According to VanEpps, these changes could leave important development teams without stable funding in the coming months.

The Challenge of “Subtraction”

A major part of the discussion revolves around the Ethereum Foundation’s long-standing philosophy called “Subtraction.”
So rather than becoming the permanent center of power, the Foundation wants Ethereum to grow beyond it. Eventually, it wants the network to rely on a wider ecosystem of independent organizations.
While VanEpps said this approach successfully communicated that the Foundation does not want to control Ethereum forever, he argued that the ecosystem has struggled to replace many of the roles the Foundation still plays.
Despite its efforts to step back, the Ethereum Foundation still holds significant influence through its brand, treasury, research teams, Ethereum.org, and major events like Devcon. Also, it has a close association with Vitalik Buterin.

Ethereum’s Next Chapter

VanEpps pointed to a recent statement from Buterin, who said the Ethereum Foundation was never designed to be the network’s permanent steward.
That means new institutions, funding models, and governance structures will likely need to emerge as Ethereum enters its next phase.
Without consistent funding, VanEpps warned that Ethereum could lose experienced developers. Additionally, it would slow progress on important challenges such as scaling and quantum-resistance research. It could also risk damaging its reputation for reliability.
His message was ultimately a call for the Ethereum community to start building sustainable funding mechanisms and new institutions now. He warned they should not wait until the effects of underinvestment become visible a year or two down the road.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has hinted that a major partnership for Midnight could soon be announced in Japan. This adds fresh excitement to Cardano’s growing presence in one of its strongest markets.
During a recent update, Hoskinson said his Japan tour focused on meeting large companies and introducing Midnight, Cardano’s privacy-focused blockchain project. Additionally, he explained that privacy is becoming a key topic for businesses exploring blockchain technology.
“Everybody wants privacy right now, and they want a new narrative in the cryptocurrency space,” Hoskinson said.

A Surprise Midnight Partnership?

While discussing the trip, Hoskinson revealed that a new agreement had already been secured for Midnight in Japan.
“There’s something we did get done for Midnight. It’s paired with the liquidity of $NIGHT in Japan. That’s real exciting. I never thought I’d make a deal with that particular company.” He said
Although he did not reveal the company’s name, the comments immediately sparked speculation within the Cardano community. According to him, the partnership is connected to $NIGHT, the token powering the Midnight ecosystem. He hinted that more details will be revealed later.
The comments are notable because Midnight has become one of Cardano’s biggest upcoming projects. It focuses on privacy and confidential transactions while remaining compliant with regulations.

Cardano Card Also Coming to Japan

The update comes as Cardano’s commercial arm, EMURGO, announced a new partnership with Japanese fintech company Slash Vision Labs. In addition, it announced a partnership with crypto platform SecondFi.

The is coming to Japan. 🇯🇵

Through a partnership between EMURGO, SecondFi, and Slash, Japanese users will soon be able to order the Cardano Card and spend stablecoins across the country's everyday payment networks.

— Cardano Foundation () May 18, 2026

Through the partnership, Japanese users will soon be able to order the Cardano Card and spend stablecoins across Japan’s payment network. This includes the QR-code payment systems used in everyday shopping.
EMURGO CEO Phillip Pon said the goal has always been to give Japanese $ADA holders more ways to use their crypto.
“Since Cardano’s journey began in Japan, we have always wanted our Japanese $ADA holders to be able to do more than just hold and stake.” Phillip Pon said.
Japan has long been one of Cardano’s most important markets, with a large $ADA community and clear crypto regulations. Now, with the Cardano Card on the way and Hoskinson teasing a surprise Midnight partnership, Cardano appears to be deepening its footprint in the country.

$ADA under Pressure

$ADA’s recent performance has raised doubts for the investors as the coin dropped 32% over the last 30 days. Despite that, Cardano’s latest moves in Japan could help the token recover. A new Midnight partnership could bring more companies and users to the network. Additionally, the Cardano Card could make it easier for people to use crypto in everyday payments.
If these efforts attract more users and increase activity on Cardano, they could help boost demand for $ADA and support its price in the future.
Still, crypto analyst Ali Martinez remains cautious, warning that $ADA could see further losses after breaking a key support level. There is a possible drop toward $0.13.

Arca Chief Investment Officer Jeff Dorman believes that Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) may be forced to sell billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin or common stock to ease concerns about its STRC preferred stock.

Dorman Warns Strategy May Have To Sell More Bitcoin, MSTR Stock

The comments followed Strategy’s STRC preferred stock trading down to as low as $82.53 on June 18. Thereafter, it rebounded a bit but still closed at $88.59, which is far short of its $100 par value. Peter Schiff even warned of a lawsuit against Michael Saylor’s Strategy as STRC is continuing decline.
In a post on X, Dorman declared that the “MSTR pickle continues.” He noted that management will have to take a hard decision because of mounting pressures on its capital structure.
“Either sell an enormous amount of $BTC and MSTR to help bring STRC back up near par,” he wrote. If not, it would have to continue to “watch every part of your cap structure melt because of the uncertainty [they’ve] created,” he added. His comments coincide with criticism over the recent 32 $BTC sale.
Dorman said his base case, which he gave a 70% chance of occurring, is that Strategy will follow its existing strategy of selling “small amounts of MSTR every month at non-accretive levels.” If that is the case, he said, “at least a glimmer of hope,” for STRC holders while Bitcoin is pretty much intact, “MSTR would get hammered.”
He assigned a 25% probability to what he referred to as the “right thing,” which is Strategy selling between $3 billion and $4 billion worth of Bitcoin. Moreover, Dorman said such a step would “buy a ton of time” be “good for STRC” and only “bad for $BTC short-term but good long-term.”

Preferred Dividends Remain A Key Obstacle

Dorman had set aside 5% for what he referred to as the “nuclear option.” It’ll come in handy to do away with payments on preferred securities that are contingent on the dividend, he added.

MSTR pickle continues: What I laid out 2 weeks ago is still the only viable path to save $BTC and $MSTR in the short-run.
Either sell an enormous amount of $BTC and MSTR to help bring $STRC back up near par, and at least buy yourself some time, or continue to watch every part… https://t.co/JAztCieaZ1
— Jeff Dorman () June 18, 2026

The move may result in a “30-40 cents on the dollar” for preferred shares, and would likely “close the capital markets” to Strategy, he said. It would, however, also solve a “$1.7 bn per year cash outlay problem.” Dorman said.
The Arca executive also questioned Strategy’s valuation. He said that the MSTR stock is “still trading at 1.15 mNAV using the correct calculation.” He calculated that the company has approximately $35.2 billion worth of unencumbered Bitcoin collateral and $40.4 billion worth of equity market capitalization.
Due to this, Dorman said MSTR is “still going a lot lower” and “should trade at a discount to NAV now.”
He said if Bitcoin makes a quick turnaround and goes higher, then MSTR stock could see an upside. However, he warned that it centers on a big assumption that Strategy doesn’t dilute itself more from dividends or asset sales or future fundraising.

Bitcoin fell below the $63,000 level due to strong selling pressure, indicating weakening risk appetite in the cryptocurrency market. According to the latest data, the price of Bitcoin dropped to $62,644, losing over 5% in value in the last 24 hours.
A graph showing the drop in BTC price.
The market downturn wasn’t limited to Bitcoin. Ethereum fell by over 5% to $1,689, BNB dropped 4.90% to $576, XRP lost 5.83% to $1.14, and Solana fell 6.98% to $68.79. Among the top 10 cryptocurrencies, one of the sharpest drops was seen in Hyperliquid, which experienced a loss of over 11%.
The decline is believed to stem from the hawkish stance adopted by the Fed in its statement following yesterday’s interest rate decision.
The sharp pullback in the cryptocurrency market has also led to large liquidations in the futures market. In the last 24 hours, the total amount of liquidations reached $599.69 million. Of this, $496.27 million was from long positions and $103.42 million from short positions. In the last 4 hours alone, $267.62 million worth of positions were liquidated.

Concerns about Strategy also stood out amid the selling pressure in the market. Strategy’s preferred stock, STRC, which pays an annual dividend of 11.5 percent, fell to an all-time low of $85.32. The fact that STRC is trading below its nominal value of $100 is interpreted as the market not finding the current dividend yield sufficient.
For STRC to approach the $100 level again, Strategy may need to increase its dividend rate. However, this would also increase the company’s annual cash obligation. It is stated that Strategy is currently financing these payments by selling MSTR shares, and with MSTR’s net asset value premium approaching 1x, the possibility of financing through new share sales is narrowing.
This situation has heightened concerns in the market that Strategy may be forced to sell Bitcoin in the future. In response to these concerns, the company stated in its latest 8K filing that its Bitcoin reserves are large enough to cover its annual dividend and interest expenses of $1.7 billion for 32 years. According to Strategy, a mere 3.1% annual increase in Bitcoin’s value is sufficient to offset these obligations.
Despite this, the fact that STRC is still trading approximately $14 below its nominal value of $100 indicates that the market is not entirely convinced by the company’s statements. Strategy, which has stood out as one of the world’s largest institutional Bitcoin buyers to date, is seen as a significant pressure point in the market due to the potential for regular Bitcoin sales.

🔥Bitcoin Slides as Fed Says it will 'Deliver Price Stability' Under Kevin Warsh
The Federal Reserve stood pat on Wednesday, keeping its benchmark interest rate steady while policymakers monitor economic data and inflation progress that’s grown complicated by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
The U.S. central bank maintained a target range for the federal funds rate of 3.5% to 3.75%, the fourth time this year in which officials have chosen to prolong a wait-and-see posture.
As the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran has squeezed global oil supplies, investors have braced for the prospect of tighter monetary conditions that could pressure risk assets. Yet the Fed’s latest decision comes as both sides have touted progress through an agreement.
Bitcoin, the leading digital asset by market cap, changed hands around $65,300, steadying ahead of the Fed’s move but then dipping following the announcement. While down just over 1% on the day, the top coin was still 5% higher over the past week. Ethereum and Solana had risen 7.6% to $1,763 and 13% to $73, respectively, over the last seven days.

In a statement, the Federal Open Market Committee said economic activity is “expanding at a solid pace despite elevated uncertainty that owes, in part, to the conflict in the Middle East,” while referencing supply shocks in certain sectors, including energy.
The remarks, which comprised under a dozen sentences, were relatively blunt about the Fed’s yearslong fight to deliver inflation to its 2% target: “The Committee will deliver price stability.”
At the same time, the Fed referenced stability in America’s labor market. Weeks ago, Bitcoin fell after government numbers far surpassed economists’ job growth expectations, bolstering expectations that higher prices were a relative threat to the Fed’s dual mandate.
Wednesday’s decision marked the first under Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, who faced hurdles in taking over the central bank’s helm. As President Trump badgered his predecessor, Jerome Powell, to lower rates, some lawmakers refused to support Warsh’s nomination until the Department of Justice dropped its criminal investigation into the outgoing Fed chair.
