Circle drops 15% after launch of Open USD stablecoin hits revenue stream

Circle drops 15% after launch of Open USD stablecoin hits revenue stream

Circle Internet Group dropped sharply Tuesday after the company launched a new Open USD stablecoin plan that hit the main spot investors watch—how reserve earnings will be split. Open Standard plans to launch Open USD later this year, Reuters said, with backing from more than 140 firms including Visa, Mastercard and Coinbase Global. Open USD will give businesses free minting and redemption with no caps on volume, and the group will share reserve profits with partners after a management fee.

Strategy to sell bitcoin gives room as MSTR buyback lags new shares

Strategy to sell bitcoin gives room as MSTR buyback lags new shares

Strategy Inc has set up a controlled way to sell bitcoin, but the big question for investors is how far the company will go with dilution as it discusses buybacks. The board's plan, out Monday, allows bitcoin sales, raising cash reserves, and buybacks of as much as $1 billion in both common and preferred shares. A number traders watch is the gap between new buyback headlines and last week’s share sales. Strategy sold 12.67 million MSTR shares for $1.152 billion net in the week ending June 28, according to a June 29 filing. The company did not buy any bitcoin in that span and still had $24.26 billion left it could raise through selling Class A common stock.

BTC Digital shares surge premarket after $7M AI capital round tops market cap

BTC Digital Ltd. soared ahead of Tuesday’s open after the company said it closed a private placement raising $7 million upfront, with potential for another $21 million if investors cash in warrants. At the time, Nasdaq was trading in pre-market. Pre-market on Nasdaq goes from 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. ET. NasdaqTrader’s 2026 U.S. equity holiday calendar doesn’t list June 30 as a holiday.

Bitcoin lending bounces back, Wall Street credit takes lead as $60,000 level looms

Bitcoin lending bounces back, Wall Street credit takes lead as $60,000 level looms

Silicon Valley Bank, part of First Citizens BancShares, put bitcoin-backed loans in front of credit investors again, saying the business has shifted from failed crypto firms to overcollateralized lending, bank lines, and rated ABS. CoinDesk and FinanceFeeds reported on the change in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin traded under $60,000 at the time. For investors, the key is in the loan terms. A lender who requires $2 in bitcoin for every $1 lent and who liquidates at 80% loan-to-value gets a 37.5% price cushion on bitcoin before forced selling, if there’s no repayment or collateral added. At the price on the dateline, liquidation would hit around $37,100. SVB said Ledn hasn’t reported losses from collateralized consumer loans after bitcoin’s 48% slide from last year’s high.

MARA stock: Long Ridge power deal in focus as bitcoin slides in holiday week

MARA Holdings, Inc. heads into a shortened U.S. trading week with a clearer issue for investors: is the stock mostly a bitcoin play, or has it started to trade more on its power assets? The shares finished Friday at $14.54, up 63 cents. About 56.8 million shares traded, putting the market cap close to $5.53 billion. Riot Platforms Inc. and CleanSpark Inc. also moved higher, but now MARA’s action has another catalyst after last week’s Long Ridge filing.

XRP price today slips near $1.34 as oil shock unsettles crypto traders

XRP price closing in on $1, futures trading volume dwarfs ETF inflows

XRP held at $1.044 Sunday evening in London, after swinging between $1.042 and $1.056 through the session. Live crypto quote data showed bitcoin near $59,453, ether close to $1,568 and solana last at $70.92. The size of the derivatives market is getting less attention than XRP's price. CoinGlass shows 24-hour XRP spot volume at $190.7 million, while futures volume stands at $1.29 billion. Futures open interest is at $2.37 billion, with $1.51 million in liquidations. U.S. spot XRP funds saw $15.63 million come in on Friday and total inflows now sit at $1.47 billion, The Block said, citing SoSoValue.

Bitcoin Price Today Holds Above $75,000 as Iran Talk Hopes and Wall Street’s Crypto Push Steady BTC

Bitcoin drops under $60,000 as ETF outflows outpace new supply ahead of U.S. jobs data

Bitcoin hovered below $60,000 on Sunday. That sets up the market for a new week less cluttered by weekend volatility, but with a fresh issue: products tied to Wall Street are pulling coins off the market quicker than new supply comes in from mining. Bitcoin changed hands at $59,432 at 20:28 BST, trading between $59,355 and $60,383 through the session, market data showed. Earlier, Investing.com said Bitcoin slipped under $60,000 and was heading for its second quarterly loss in a row if prices stay down through June.

BitMine stock stays below reported crypto holdings after Russell inclusion; ETH drop pressures discount

BitMine stock stays below reported crypto holdings after Russell inclusion; ETH drop pressures discount

U.S. stock markets were closed Sunday in New York. BitMine Immersion Technologies, Inc. will next trade in the first regular session after FTSE Russell’s June 26 reconstitution took effect after the U.S. market closed. FTSE Russell’s final Russell 3000 additions list shows “BITMINE IMMERSION TECHNO” with ticker BMNR in the technology sector. The clean trade is no longer only an “ETH proxy.” By Friday’s close, BMNR traded below an estimate of its disclosed holdings, despite this weekend’s further drop in ether. That discount is now a fact for investors. It shows the market is pricing in crypto volatility, preferred stock obligations, execution risk and potential capital needs, not awarding a premium to the biggest listed Ethereum treasury.

Ripple MiCA Approval Moves RLUSD, XRP (CRYPTO:XRP) Not Focus, in Europe Payments Push

Ripple MiCA Approval Moves RLUSD, XRP (CRYPTO:XRP) Not Focus, in Europe Payments Push

Ripple’s preliminary EU crypto license gives investors a new question. Will regulated use of Ripple USD, or RLUSD, actually drive payments onto the XRP Ledger, or does it just end up benefiting Ripple, the company, more? Motley Fool put it straight for token holders: Ripple owns the license, but XRP is tied to XRPL activity, with only small fee burns and account reserves connecting them. That’s the gap investors are faced with now.

MARA stock shifts as focus turns to Long Ridge power data, bitcoin less in play

MARA stock shifts as focus turns to Long Ridge power data, bitcoin less in play

MARA Holdings, Inc. jumped more than 6% Friday, beating bitcoin and the Nasdaq. Investors got a closer look at the company’s targeted energy asset from a Thursday night filing, as the bitcoin miner eyes a move into AI infrastructure. The stock was last at $14.79, up $0.91. Bitcoin traded at about $59,959, up $327. Stock split changes the numbers. MARA had 381.27 million shares out as of April 30. The $0.91 gain in the share price tacked on about $347 million to its market cap. MARA said a $10,000 change in bitcoin would have moved pre-tax loss by $353 million at March 31—pretty close. On Friday, bitcoin moved just $327.

XRP stays close to $1 as futures trading towers over ETF inflows

XRP stays close to $1 as futures trading towers over ETF inflows

XRP traded barely above $1 on Friday as recent selling saw the Ripple-linked token slide into the zone bulls thought the U.S. ETF bid might hold. Price was last at $1.045 around 13:08 EDT. XRP touched a low of $1.011 earlier, session high at $1.05. XRP spot ETFs pulled in $2.05 million in net inflows on June 24, according to Sosovalue data. But that’s small compared to broader volumes—CoinGlass showed $678.4 million of spot volume and $2.76 billion in futures for XRP in the same 24-hour window. ETF inflows made up about 0.3% of spot turnover and just 0.07% of futures turnover. ETF demand is there, but how big it is remains the open question for investors.

Bitcoin slips as spot ETF outflows hit BlackRock, Fidelity, $60,000 level in play

Bitcoin hovered near $60,000 Friday, moving up after a dip to the high-$58,000s earlier in the day. The price was showing $60,033, up $891 for the session, with the day's low at $58,319 and the top at $60,621. But traders focused less on the spot price and more on who was selling. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs posted $691.7 million in outflows on June 25, following $469.0 million out the day before, according to Farside Investors. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund saw $900.3 million go out over those two days, more than three-fourths of the $1.16 billion lost overall, Farside’s numbers show.

Polymarket hack puts ICE-backed prediction market in focus

Polymarket’s latest hack is small next to its market valuation. But the numbers point to changing risk for investors—it's less about smart contracts and more about the web layer users see. Polymarket said on Thursday that a third-party vendor was compromised, which let attackers slip malicious code onto its frontend seen by some users. The company said it contained the issue, removed the bad dependency, and is now contacting users who lost funds to offer refunds. A Polymarket spokesperson, Connor Brandi, told TechCrunch that user funds were stolen but didn't say more.

Bitcoin Holds $80,000 as ETF Outflows Put Rally Back on Trial

Bitcoin slips near $59,500 as ETF outflows hit options support

Bitcoin dropped to about $59,500 late Thursday in New York. But what stood out more to investors was the ETF tape. The most recent U.S. spot bitcoin ETF outflow was big, concentrated, and came mostly from funds that tend to track institutional demand. Bitcoin was down 1.9% at $59,498, after hitting a low of $58,189. The iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF slipped 1.1% to finish at $33.52. Shares of Strategy Inc, which holds the most bitcoin among listed firms, dropped 9.3% to $85.33. Coinbase Global Inc fell 5.1% to $142.52.

The Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 rose 0.6%. BMNR’s problem goes beyond today’s price. The bigger issue is the spread between the market value of BMNR common and the assets the company says it has, mostly now held in ether.

Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) drops as STRC dividend pulls bitcoin funding

Strategy Inc slipped Thursday after new market levels put more heat on Michael Saylor’s bitcoin play. Investors saw the latest equity deal less as a move to boost bitcoin holdings and more as an effort to shore up preferred stock dividends. The company raised $335.5 million in net proceeds selling 2.7 million common shares between June 15 and June 21. It used $34.9 million from that to buy 520 bitcoin. Strategy said its USD reserve grew to $1.4 billion, factoring in expected ATM proceeds that hadn't settled by June 21. About 10 cents of each dollar raised that week went into bitcoin. The rest, about 89 cents, went into the reserve.

Fomo lands $75 million, hitting $880 per user valuation for crypto trading app

Fomo’s $75 million Series B sets a private-market value for consumer crypto trading, not just another funding headline.

Based on company numbers, the price comes to about $880 per reported user and 13.75 cents per cumulative dollar traded. Fomo said it had over 625,000 people join since launch, with total trading volume above $4 billion and 110 million unique social interactions. That’s around $6,400 traded and 176 social actions for every reported user.

  • Cocoa jumps over 2% as weather, supply trouble hit top growers
    June 30, 2026, 5:22 PM EDT. Cocoa prices shot up more than 2% Tuesday, adding to a rally that's topped 20% in recent weeks as supply risks build. Heavy rains in Ivory Coast and Ghana have flooded roads and blocked farms and ports. Traders warn this raises risk of disease-brown rot, black pod-damaging crops and hurting global output. Forecasts for a strong El Niño could mean drier weather ahead for West Africa, adding more worry for future yields. Early numbers for 2026/27 point to an 18% drop in Ivory Coast production. While some see supply holding up-port shipments are up 20%, inventories are growing-the market is still uneasy as weather and crop threats persist.
