PiggyBank: LAB token basis trading error, token manipulated by the market, USDC vault has already retraced 15%.

PiggyBank, a yield protocol, acknowledged a serious error in its LAB token basis trading last month. The team purchased approximately $100,000 worth of locked LAB tokens at a low OTC price and hedged with short perpetual contracts. However, LAB suffered severe market manipulation, liquidity dried up, and funding rates were deeply negative, making hedging too costly and ultimately forcing the closing of the short positions. At current prices, the total value of the locked positions is $1.35 million, but due to insufficient liquidity, they will be excluded from net asset value calculations before their initial unlock on August 14th. Today's net asset value shows USDC vault down approximately 15%, SPYx down approximately 12%, and JitoSOL down approximately 9%. A detailed report will be released next week. On-chain investigator ZachXBT previously questioned whether the company had insider control over more than 95% of the supply.

OpenAI plans to significantly upgrade ChatGPT to generate more revenue.

OpenAI is preparing its biggest upgrade to ChatGPT since its launch, planning to transform it into a "super app" that integrates programming tools with AI agents and adds several new products that can generate higher revenue. This is part of OpenAI's overall restructuring plan aimed at attracting high-margin enterprise customers and competing with Anthropic.

ZODL plans to activate a new network upgrade and the Ironwood privacy pool in July to enhance Zcash security.

ZODL, a core contributor to the Zcash ecosystem, in collaboration with Tachyon, Valar Group, Zcash Foundation, and Shielded Labs, has proposed a new network upgrade solution and the privacy pool Ironwood. Built on the Orchard protocol, it enhances security through formal verification and independent auditing. Recently discovered Orchard integrity issues have been fixed, and there is no evidence that the vulnerabilities were exploited or affected user funds, privacy, or the total supply of ZEC. Wallets supporting Orchard will offer a one-click migration function, and existing addresses can continue to be used. Ironwood is planned to be activated by the end of July 2026, and ZEC in Orchard will be migrated through a "Turnstile" mechanism, allowing independent verification of the circulating supply. After the upgrade, the Orchard pool will disable new deposits and internal transactions.

Opinions & Analysis

Glassnode co-founder: Bitcoin's bottom is most likely between $46,000 and $54,000.

Rafael, co-founder of Glassnode, points out that Bitcoin's current price is in the $62,000 range, down nearly 50% from its all-time high, with a 24% drop in the past month, entering a valuation cluster area where historical bottoms have occurred. This is the first time Bitcoin has fallen below the median holder's break-even level since December 2022. Current support levels: median realized price around $64,100, 200-week moving average around $61,700. Historically, it has only fallen below this MVRV level about 7% of the time. A higher probability bottom area is between $46,000 and $54,000; a defensive floor in extreme panic is between $35,000 and $40,000. The cyclical pullback is gradually decreasing; this round has only seen a drop of about 50%, making a high-probability bottom more likely in the upper range. The first key recovery area on the upside is between $75,000 and $79,000. He emphasizes that this is only a prediction, and the bottom cannot be precisely determined.

Tom Lee: Don't be misled by misinformation; cryptocurrency is crucial in the world of AI.

Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee stated that people should not be misled by misinformation, the stock market bull run remains solid, and cryptocurrency is the only way to tokenize and is crucial in the machine-to-machine AI world.

Bitcoin's RSI has fallen to its lowest level since the 2020 crash, and analysts say the probability of a rebound to $70,000 has increased.

Bitcoin's daily RSI has fallen to around 15.5, its lowest level since the March 2020 crash due to the pandemic, indicating extreme oversold conditions. Historically, BTC has rebounded by approximately 50% and 30% after similar levels. Currently, BTC is holding above the $60,000 support level. If this level holds, it may rebound to around $70,600 near the 20-day EMA in the coming weeks; if it breaks below, it could test the mid-$50,000 range. Analyst Scott Melker points out that short-term holders have recorded the largest loss-making sell-off in history, while long-term holders have approximately 5.3 million BTC with unrealized losses, the highest since March 2020. The shift in market sentiment from extreme optimism to extreme pessimism often signals an impending bottom.

DWF co-founder: BitMine and Strategy may trigger the biggest crash in crypto history.

Analysts: Bitcoin tests key support at $62,000; $54,000 may be the final line of defense in this round.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. stated that Bitcoin is retesting the February low of around $62,000, with a current 7-day net realized loss of approximately $7 billion, higher than the February low but lower than the winter panic peak of $14 billion. BTC has fallen below the short-term holder's cost price of around $76,000. Further downside potential lies in the network average realized price of around $54,000 and the long-term holder's cost price of around $49,000, corresponding to historical cycle bottom ranges. As long as it remains above $54,000, the market has not entered a full-blown capitulation phase; however, if it breaks below and continues to trade below the February low, it may test the $54,000 level.

The founder of Grayscale's parent company DCG strongly supports ZEC: Price drops shouldn't be mocked; focusing on AI and quantum risks is more important.

This highlights institutional focus on the long-term resilience and security of crypto assets.

"New stock market guru" Serenity responds to excessive volatility in US stocks: AI investment logic remains unchanged, market correction is nothing to panic about.

"New stock market guru" Serenity stated that while leading AI stocks were under pressure during the market correction, the underlying logic of AI infrastructure construction remains unchanged, with Broadcom projecting strong AI demand growth to 2028. The only substantial change is the market's rising expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike. Such pullbacks occur several times a year during record highs, and he personally will not trade on changes in Fed policy expectations, continuing to be bullish on companies with strong fundamentals and earnings guidance.

"New stock market guru" Serenity responds to others profiting from content reposting: All content is published for free, but derivative creators should focus on adding value.

ZEC Treasury firm Cypherpunk responds to market volatility: All software has vulnerabilities; formal verification will enhance security.

ZEC treasury provider Cypherpunk responded to market volatility by stating that all software has vulnerabilities, and that Bitcoin has historically been mistakenly "over-minted" by 184 billion BTC. However, they emphasized that blockchain technology should not be abandoned; instead, security should be enhanced through formal verification. With the development of AI, vulnerability detection is faster; the key is who discovers the problem first, a capability Zcash will demonstrate in its upcoming update. Previously, ZEC's stock price plummeted by over 50% in a single day after a security vulnerability was revealed that could lead to unlimited issuance.

Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) may experience their biggest weekly drop since the FTX crash, wiping out $390 billion in cryptocurrency market capitalization.

Bitcoin fell 17.3% this week, and Ethereum fell 22%, both potentially marking their largest weekly declines since November 2022. The digital asset market capitalization evaporated by approximately $390 billion, hovering above $2 trillion, less than half of its October peak. Leveraged positions were liquidated this week, with $5.7 billion held by long positions. The decline was driven by multiple negative factors: Strategy sold only 32 Bitcoins for the first time in nearly four years, unsettling investors; Bitcoin ETF assets continued to shrink, with some funds shifting to AI; AI exposed flaws in cryptographic protocols, such as Zcash, whose price plummeted by over 40% due to privacy vulnerabilities; and Friday's stronger-than-expected US jobs report led to renewed market expectations of a potential Fed rate hike, causing US Treasury yields to surge and the Nasdaq 100 to experience its worst single-day performance since April.
