Top News, Bitcoin and Altcoin Volatility, Major Hacks, and DeFi Investments

It’s been a wild week for cryptocurrency!

Bitcoin’s price went on a rollercoaster ride, soaring between $65,000 and $70,000, all thanks to a surprising turn of events with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) news. Was this a bullish sign or a bearish blow? What other factors sent shockwaves through the market? This week’s report will crack the code on these burning questions and many more.

This is information you can’t afford to miss. Dive right in.

The burning question on everyone’s mind is: “Is the crypto market in a bull run?” In recent weeks, a series of significant developments have been seen, which have strengthened the market’s position considerably. This week also brought notable fluctuations, and we’ll explore those details in this section.

Terraform Labs and Do Kwon Settle SEC Lawsuit for $4.5 Billion

In a groundbreaking development, Terraform Labs and its former CEO, Do Kwon, finalized a $4.5 billion settlement with the SEC. This agreement, enforced by a U.S. District Court, bars them permanently from the crypto sector following Terra’s $40 billion collapse.

Donald Trump Advocates for U.S. Bitcoin Mining Dominance

President Donald Trump has advocated for all future Bitcoin mining to occur within the U.S., following a meeting with Riot Platforms’ CEO Jason Les and head of public policy, Brian Morgenstern. He expressed his support for domestic mining firms on Truth Social, highlighting the strategic importance of keeping Bitcoin operations stateside.

OKX Reports Identity Theft Incidents

OKX revealed in a statement that a hacker exploited forged “judicial documents” to access the personal information of a few users, with the matter now under investigation by judicial authorities. The breach, revealed by two compromised user accounts on social media, involved the creation of new API keys following unusual risk notification SMS texts from Hong Kong.

CPI Report Sparks Market Volatility

The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) remained unchanged in May, outperforming forecasts of a 0.1% increase and showing a year-over-year rise of 3.3%, slightly below the anticipated 3.4%. This news triggered a brief surge in the market; however, it later triggered significant long-liquidation.

MicroStrategy Increases Bitcoin Holdings

MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, has increased its convertible senior notes offering from $500 million to $700 million, according to a recent announcement. This upsized offering will fund further Bitcoin acquisitions and general corporate affairs.

Bitcoin and Altcoin Performance Highlights

This week, Bitcoin experienced increased volatility due to two key macroeconomic factors. The Federal Reserve’s announcement after its interest rate decision and the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data both led to significant fluctuations in Bitcoin’s price, pushing it close to the critical $70,000 mark. However, the price later fell.

Over the last seven days, investors continued to accumulate BTC near the dip. Japanese company Metaplanet capitalized on the bearish price movement of Bitcoin to enhance its treasury. On June 11, the firm announced that it had acquired an additional 23.25 Bitcoin, increasing its total holdings to 141.07 Bitcoin. These were purchased at an average price of $65,365.

The altcoin market also witnessed a surge in activity due to Bitcoin’s massive volatility. Purchases were not limited to Bitcoin, as Ether also saw significant buying activity among long-term holders. Julio Moreno, the head of research at CryptoQuant, reported on X that accumulation addresses acquired 298,000 Ether within 24 hours on June 12. This figure was just slightly below the record purchase of 317,000 Ether on September 11, 2023.

This week, the price of BTC reached a peak of $70,035 and dipped to a low of $65,103, ultimately reflecting a 5% decrease overall.

Crypto Dominance Shifts and Market Insights

This week witnessed dynamic movements in the crypto market, with Bitcoin asserting its dominance amidst fluctuating trends. Here’s a breakdown of the key developments:

Bitcoin Dominance Grows, Altcoins Retreat

Bitcoin’s market cap dominance rose by 0.83% this week, now standing at 55.3%. Conversely, altcoins (excluding the top 10) saw their dominance decline sharply by nearly 4% to 10.57%, reflecting a shift in investor sentiment towards BTC.

On-Chain Metrics Signal Opportunities

Cumulative Value Coin Days Destroyed (CVDD): Insights from CVDD suggest that Bitcoin may not have peaked yet, hinting at potential upward movements ahead. This analysis positions BTC favorably as a buying opportunity in the current market.

Decline in Profitable Addresses: The recent bearish volatility led to a significant drop in profitable addresses, falling from 98.82% to 91.85%. This decline has triggered increased liquidation in the Bitcoin market.

Bitcoin Price Rainbow Chart Analysis

Despite recent volatility, the Bitcoin Price Rainbow Chart indicates favorable buying opportunities during price dips. This analysis suggests a strategic entry point for investors anticipating future price increases.

Drop In Whale Interest: The whale interest for BTC price witnessed a drop this week.

Data from IntoTheBlock suggests that large transaction volume faced a drop from the peak of $54.84 billion to a low of $47 billion.

Bitcoin ETF Data Insights

Bitcoin has remained relatively stable in its price movements over the past few months, even though there has been a record $12 billion in net inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs. This unexpected stability has caused concern among investors, especially since many analysts had forecasted a very bullish trend for Bitcoin following the launch of these ETFs.

According to Farside data, on June 10, Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs saw their first outflows since May 10, totaling $64.9 million and ending a 19-day streak of inflows. The outflows were led by Grayscale’s GBTC with $39.5 million, followed by Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO) at $20.5 million, Valkyrie’s Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BRRR) at $15.8 million, and Fidelity’s Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) with $3 million. Despite this, the net inflows for these ETFs generally remain positive.

Ticker	ETF Name	Price	Price Change	Volume
IBIT	iShares Bitcoin Trust	$37.3	-0.6 (-1.58%)	$838.92M
GBTC	Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (BTC)	$58.18	-0.96 (-1.62%)	$295.92M
FBTC	Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund	$57.25	-0.88 (-1.51%)	$398.52M
ARKB	ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF	$65.42	-1.09 (-1.64%)	$133.01M
BITB	Bitwise Bitcoin ETF	$35.69	-0.58 (-1.60%)	$56.32M

Bitcoin ETFs experienced over $226 million in net outflows on Thursday, marking the third day of withdrawals this week, a pattern similar to late April. Preliminary data from SoSoValue indicates that Fidelity’s FBTC led with $106 million withdrawn, followed by Grayscale’s GBTC with $62 million, and Ark Invest’s ARKB with $53 million in outflows. BlackRock’s IBIT was the exception, gaining $18 million. Valkyrie, Franklin Templeton, Hashdex, and WisdomTree’s ETFs saw no changes in flow. Wednesday was the week’s only day of net inflows, adding $100 million.

Bitcoin’s Technical Analysis

Bitcoin price opened this week at $69,075; however, it failed to maintain this trading range by the end of this week. On 11 June, BTC’s price dropped toward a low of $66K; however, it later surged ahead of the CPI report and FOMC meeting. As CPI came in softer than expected, Bitcoin and other assets witnessed a steep decline, with the price testing buyers’ patience around $65K. As of writing, BTC price trades at $66,230, declining over 0.6% in the last 24 hours.

The 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) has begun to decline, currently sitting at $67,025, and the relative strength index (RSI) has moved below the midline, suggesting that bears currently have an advantage. A drop below the $65K level might send the BTC price to test $60.1K.

For the bulls, time is critical. They need to push and sustain the price above the 20-day EMA to avert further declines. If successful, the pair could ascend towards $70,000 and possibly extend gains up to $72,000.

Bitcoin Dominance Hits 3-Year High: Is Altcoin Season Coming?

Iggy Azalea’s Meme Coin – MOTHER Soars 30% After New Utility Announcement

As Bitcoin dominance hits a three-year high of 56%, analysts are predicting the potential start of an altcoin season. Although Bitcoin’s current valuation has fallen below $63,600, the high dominance level suggests a significant shift in the market.

Experts point out that Bitcoin dominance is a key factor in predicting altcoin trends. If Bitcoin holds its price while its dominance declines, it could signal a flow of investment into altcoins. This triggers what many call an “altcoin season.”

Conversely, if Bitcoin price and dominance fall simultaneously, it usually indicates a broader market correction rather than an altcoin boom.

What Factors Suggest an Imminent Altcoin Season?

Markus Thielen of 10X Research noted that Bitcoin Price Tends to Stabilize in August. Therefore, a stable Bitcoin price, coupled with declining dominance, may create the ideal conditions for altcoins to thrive.

In addition, Ki Young Ju, founder of the chain analysis CryptoQuant platform has highlighted increasing activities by crypto whales that appear to be preparing for an altcoin rally.

“Limit buy order volume for altcoins, excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum, is increasing, indicating that strong buy walls are being put in place” said.

Ju explained that limit orders, which are preferred by institutions for large trades to minimize price impact, create “quote volume.” His analysis, which includes a graph of the 1-year normalized cumulative buy/sell volume difference, indicates that altcoins like Solana (SOL)Cosmos (ATOM) and Polygon (MATIC) experience significant accumulation activities.

“The indicator is calculated by taking the cumulative sum of the difference between the buy and sell quote volumes, using a one-year rolling window. If there is an upward trend, it means the buy volume of the quotes is increasing, indicating stronger buy walls,” Ju explained.

This bullish sentiment is reflected in the trends following recent developments in crypto financial products. Crypto Vikings, a renowned analyst, suggests that current market conditions are conducive to altcoin season.

“Many alts are down 60-80% in the last couple of months, and many of them have already bottomed and are in a good buy zone. Bitcoin Domination is also facing major resistance relative to where the massive altcoin season began each cycle,” Crypto Vikings declared.

Sentiment is increasingly optimistic, as many believe that the disillusionment that follows periods of prolonged economic downturn opens the way to profitable investments.

Another trader, Mags, noted that altcoins are only up 58% after breaking a 525-day accumulation. Therefore, he predicts a possible continuation of the altcoin rally after a reaccumulation consolidation.

“Permanent bears will tell you that altcoins are done and in a distribution phase. But if you look at the chart, altcoins are only up 58% since they broke out after 525 days of accumulation. Do you really think a breakout after 525 days of consolidation will end after only a 58% move?” wrote on X (Twitter).

On the other hand, Brian Quinlivan, senior analyst at Santiment, told BeInCrypto that there is a lack of enthusiasm for the altcoin season due to the recent price drops.

“As far as mentions of altcoin season go, we’re not really seeing any significant enthusiasm from traders about it. Traders have at least been a little bit more vocal since we started seeing prices drop over the last three days,” Quinlivan told BeInCrypto.

On-chain data confirms whales are preparing for altcoin surge with increased buy orders

ChatGPT Suggests Top 5 Altcoins Under $0.01 for $1000 Investment

Ki Young Ju, CEO of analytics platform CryptoQuant, believes whales are preparing for an upcoming surge in altcoins.

In a recent revelation about X, Ju underlines that the volume of limit buy orders for altcoins, excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum, is increasing. This pattern suggests the formation of substantial buy walls, highlighting significant buying pressure from large-scale investors.

Ju’s chart identifies two main phases in limit order volume for altcoins: the limit sell phase and the limit buy phase. The limit sell phase saw a notable increase in cumulative sell orders in 2022, demonstrating strong selling pressure from whales and other market participants. This phase coincided with a period of falling altcoin prices due to unfavorable market conditions.

Then, the limit buying phase began, marked by a significant increase in cumulative buy orders. This indicates a period of strategic accumulation where whales establish substantial buy walls.

According to Ju, the increase in buying volume suggests confidence in the future conditions of the altcoin market. This buying pressure creates strong support levels, indicating that whales are preparing for a positive change in the market.

Buying pressure on specific altcoins

Ju also provided a heatmap of the 1-year normalized cumulative buy/sell volume difference for various altcoins, showing the buying and selling pressure over time. Solana (SOL) has seen alternating strong buying and selling phases, with recent activity showing increased buying interest. Cosmos (ATOM) and Polygon (MATIC) have also shown increased buying pressure despite mixed activity trends.

Cardano (ADA) and PancakeSwap (CAKE) have shown balanced buying and selling phases, with recent trends proving increased buying pressure. Coins like AMP and ANKR have also demonstrated increased buying activity. The heatmap reveals that most altcoins are seeing increased buying pressure as whales and large investors accumulate altcoins in anticipation of a rally.

Meanwhile, coins experiencing selling pressure, as indicated by the predominantly red areas on the heatmap, include DOGE, DASH, AXS, XRP, COMP, and AAVE, BNT.

Bitcoin whales are also buying

It is important to note that while whales are accumulating altcoins, Bitcoin whales are also active. Crypto Basic note an increase in buyer activity on Binance, which aligns with an increase in the buy/sell ratio of takers and whale movements. Analyst Ali Martinez highlighted the ratio fluctuations from below 0.8 to above 1.7 between July 27 and 31. Ratios above 1.0 indicate aggressive buying, often preceding price rallies.

From July 27 to July 28, the ratio remained mostly above 1.0, corresponding to the rise in Bitcoin price from around $66,500 to over $67,000. A spike to around 1.5 led to a sharp increase in price to around $68,500. However, on July 30 and 31, the ratio fell below 1.0 several times, corresponding to a drop in price to around $66,000, before a final spike to 1.7 indicated another slight increase in price.
