Regulation & Macro

Jonas Myrdal, the prosecutor at the Swedish Economic Crime Agency, stated that news of Sivers Semiconductors' consideration of a dual listing in the US was posted and continuously promoted by an anonymous account on the social media platform X approximately 48 hours in advance, causing the stock price to surge several times over in a short period. He believes this highly likely involves information leakage and recommends that Nasdaq launch an investigation to assess whether it violates the EU's Market Abuse Regulation. Previously, "new stock market guru" Serenity had written an article expressing optimism about the company, stating that demand in the photonics industry was strong and the photonics business pipeline was growing rapidly.

Additionally, Meituan, Broadcom, Tiger Brokers, and others will release earnings reports. Seasonal factors suggest June is the worst-performing month for US stocks, and the market may enter a short-term consolidation phase.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed a lawsuit in Houston federal court against Texas resident Nathan Fuller, accusing him of operating a $12.3 million cryptocurrency fraud scheme. Fuller, operating under the name Privvy Investments LLC, claimed to use AI trading bots for high-frequency arbitrage, promising returns of 40% to 50% in 30 to 45 days, and even over 100% in 21 days. Between October 2022 and mid-2024, he raised funds from approximately 150 investors, using only about 3% for trading, embezzling at least $6.2 million, and paying out approximately $5.5 million to early investors through a Ponzi scheme.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Bowman outlined his "practical monetary policy decision-making framework," emphasizing that interest rate policy should be formulated around the dual mandate of maximizing employment and price stability. He stressed the importance of focusing on indicators such as GDP structure, the labor market, and PCE and core PCE inflation, while incorporating feedback from businesses and the market to mitigate the risk of misjudgments based on lagging data. He advocated a flexible and balanced approach when objectives conflict, appropriately "seeing through the noise" when identifying temporary inflationary shocks, but remaining vigilant about the impact of persistent conflicts on inflation expectations, and maintaining policy transparency and consistency.

Zama founder responds to cUSDC freeze: It's a court-ordered restraining order, not related to the agreement or privacy.

Rand, founder of the Zama protocol, stated that with the assistance of on-chain investigator ZachXBT, the root cause of the cUSDC contract freeze has been identified: a court order was issued against an address associated with the Overnight Finance hackers. This address held approximately $12.5 million in USDC, representing over 99% of the contract's funds, leading to the entire contract being frozen. The freeze is unrelated to the protocol itself or privacy technologies and is not a sanction against Zama. Adhering to compliance and privacy principles, the project has suspended the cUSDC, cUSDT, and cWETH contracts, pending the completion of the investigation and handling of the affected addresses. A detailed post-mortem report will be released.

Opinions & Analysis

Santiment: Bitcoin's long/short ratio surges to 2.23, a new high for the year, potentially indicating a short-term pullback.

Santiment's analysis suggests that the ratio of positive to negative comments regarding Ethereum has shifted from FOMO to FUD (Fear of Uncertainty). Events such as Harvard University liquidating its Ethereum ETF holdings and the resignation of Ethereum Foundation researchers have exacerbated the panic. However, the number of non-empty wallets remains a high 192.92 million, more than three times that of Bitcoin. DeFi and staking activity have normalized, and new wallet creation continues at a healthy growth rate, supporting the notion of an "Ethereum network demise." Furthermore, the Bitcoin long/short ratio has surged to 2.23, a new high since 2026. Previous high long/short ratios have been followed by short-term price corrections. The current optimistic sentiment contrasts sharply with the short-selling flows in ETFs, warranting caution.

Glassnode: Bitcoin recently tested the $75,000 strike price; market direction remains unclear.

Glassnode analysis indicates that Bitcoin recently retraced to the $75,000 strike price, an area previously held by nearly $8 billion in short Gamma positions, which pushed the BTC price down to around $72,500. With a large number of options expiring, the market's Gamma structure is beginning to rebuild. During the decline, the implied volatility (ATM) briefly exceeded 35% before falling back to around 32%, and long-term implied volatility (IV) also declined, indicating the market views this as a controlled correction. Over the past 7 days, the options trading structure has been almost perfectly balanced, with both bullish and bearish buy and sell ratios approaching 25%, reflecting a lack of clear directional betting in the market.

Bloomberg analysts: Bitcoin volatility is converging with gold, while IBIT is still significantly outperforming US stocks.

Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas points out that Bitcoin volatility and correlation are approaching gold levels, a trend that is being underestimated during the current market correction. Despite market volatility, the BlackRock Bitcoin Spot ETF (IBIT) has consistently outperformed US stocks since the escalation of the Iranian conflict, achieving more than 2 times the excess return relative to the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) since its approval. A comparison of the 60-day historical volatility of IBIT and the Gold ETF (GLD) shows that Bitcoin's volatility structure is gradually converging with that of gold, suggesting a possible shift in its asset characteristics.

Analysts say Bitcoin is at a key price level; if it fails to hold, it could fall below $65,000.

Michael van de Poppe, founder of MN Trading Capital, stated that Bitcoin is at a key price level; if it fails to hold, it could fall below $65,000, but he doesn't believe a new low will be reached. The $71,000 area is a key support level and must hold to prevent further pullback. If it holds, the $61,000-$65,000 range will be an excellent buying opportunity; if it breaks through $76,600, a new high is imminent, potentially ushering in a strong altcoin summer rally.

Grayscale: Hyperliquid poised to become a financial giant, challenging the traditional derivatives market.

Grayscale released a report stating that the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid has the potential to grow into a financial services giant, challenging the traditional derivatives and exchange markets with its blockchain infrastructure. Founded less than three years ago, Hyperliquid is projected to generate approximately $800 million in revenue by 2025, with perpetual contract trading volume reaching $2.9 trillion and open interest around $7 billion. Its business has expanded to tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets. Grayscale emphasizes that it has no direct counterparts and, if successful, will reshape the financial landscape. However, regulation remains a key variable, with the platform restricting access for US users and the HYPE token experiencing significant volatility.

a16z crypto: Prediction market infrastructure and mechanism design still have shortcomings, and the risk of market manipulation urgently needs to be addressed.

Scott Duke Kominers, a research partner at a16z crypto, published an article analyzing the value and challenges of prediction markets. Prediction markets aggregate fragmented information through price signals, providing real-time event probability estimates that outperform traditional polls. However, they face infrastructure and market design challenges, including event verification, contract settlement, adequacy of participant information, and potential manipulation risks. If these issues are resolved, prediction markets have the potential to become an important tool for decision-making and information aggregation.
