Resumen

In a significant move, cryptocurrency intelligence firm Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) invested $1 billion in a single week to acquire 13,927 Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to 780,897 BTC. This accounted for the vast majority of the $1.06 billion in net Bitcoin purchases by public companies last week. Other notable corporate developments include Bitmine, an Ethereum treasury company, which added 71,524 ETH to its holdings and announced a massive expansion of its stock buyback program from $1 billion to $4 billion. However, the proposed $1.6 billion SPAC merger for The Ether Machine was terminated due to unfavorable market conditions. In the altcoin sector, Eightco Holdings disclosed it holds nearly 9% of the circulating supply of Worldcoin (WLD) and that its investment in OpenAI constitutes 30% of its total assets. Additionally, Brag House shareholders approved a merger with the Dogecoin Foundation's official entity. The article also covers broader market trends, noting that Bitcoin miners are under profit pressure ahead of the 2028 halving and are shifting towards diversified "infrastructure" business models. Investment firm BlackRock reinstated its overweight stance on U.S. stocks, believing the economic impact of the Iran conflict is manageable.

Editor's Note: After a week, the multiple "crypto concept leading stocks" we previously mentioned have seen varying degrees of increases, with Circle's rise being particularly notable, once again surpassing $100. In the long term, its target price is still seen around $130-$150. Additionally, affected by the energy war, mining companies are seizing the opportunity to accelerate their transformation, resulting in relatively smaller stock price fluctuations and a more noticeable sector increase. Furthermore, related to the AI concept are the "OpenAI investment concept stocks," including WLD treasury company Eightco Holdings Inc. Among the altcoin treasury companies, following the previously strong performance of TRON, TON, BERA, and DOGE-related listed companies have recently remained active.

The following is a summary of last week's crypto stock market information compiled by Odaily Planet Daily. All U.S. stock data comes from msx.com.



Iran War May See a Turning Point, Miner Profits Under Pressure Accelerating Transformation, Institutions Bullish on U.S. Stocks

Bitcoin Miners Prepare for the 2028 Halving: Profits Under Pressure, Energy Tightens, Industry Shifts Towards "Infrastructuralization"

As the next Bitcoin halving (expected in 2028) approaches, miners are facing a more challenging operating environment compared to 2024. The block reward will further decrease from 3.125 BTC to 1.5625 BTC, while rising energy costs, record-high network hash rates, and tightening capital are continuously squeezing profit margins.

Data shows that mining companies have already entered a phase of "deleveraging" and cash flow optimization: MARA Holdings sold over 15,000 BTC in March, Riot Platforms sold over 3,700 BTC in Q1, Cango sold 2,000 BTC to repay debt, and Bitdeer reduced its BTC holdings to zero in February.

Industry insiders point out that miners are shifting from "pure hash rate competition" to "competition in capital and energy management capabilities." GoMining CEO Mark Zalan stated, "Capital discipline is more important than hash rate expansion"; Cango also mentioned that future operators with scale and diversified energy layouts will have a survival advantage. Meanwhile, the business models of mining companies are being restructured, moving from单一block reward income to a "power + computing power infrastructure" model, including participating in grid peak shaving, waste heat utilization, and承接AI computing power demand for diversified revenue sources.

BlackRock Resumes Overweight View on U.S. Stocks, Believes Iran War Impact is Manageable

BlackRock strategists have resumed their overweight view on U.S. stocks, believing the impact of the Middle East conflict on global economic growth "is likely to be contained." After downgrading risk and adopting a neutral stance weeks ago due to the escalation of the Middle East conflict, the strategist team led by BlackRock Investment Institute head Jean Boivin stated in a report on local time Monday that they had been monitoring "two signals to increase risk exposure," including the resumption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and signs that the war's economic impact is limited. They stated, "We have seen progress on both fronts," and a recent ceasefire is "crucial," with a "high threshold" for a return to war. BlackRock also emphasized the upcoming earnings season. "Even during the conflict, corporate earnings expectations have been rising, partly thanks to the artificial intelligence theme." Regarding U.S. stocks, BlackRock stated, "The manageable impact of the Middle East conflict on global growth, coupled with strong earnings expectations—especially in the tech sector—keeps us risk-on."

Los retiros de Bitcoin continúan: 8 años de almacenamiento en una cartera fría Coldcard terminaron en cero

Retirada de bitcoin continúa: 8 años en cartera fría Coldcard terminan en cero La cartera hardware Coldcard ha sido vulnerada, provocando una nueva oleada de retiradas de fondos de dispositivos afectados. Galaxy Research informa que el volumen total robado asciende a 1.367,05 BTC (unos 88,6 millones de dólares) desde 4.585 direcciones, superando ampliamente los 594,5 BTC reportados inicialmente el 30 de julio de 2026. La mayor parte de lo robado permanece inactiva en las direcciones de los atacantes. El problema no reside en el firmware, que ya fue actualizado por Coinkite, sino en las frases semilla (seed phrases) generadas desde marzo de 2021 debido a un error de programación. Estas frases son fácilmente descifrables, y actualizar el firmware no las cambia. Solo transferir los fondos a una nueva dirección con una nueva frase semilla elimina la vulnerabilidad. El fallo se originó al integrar la biblioteca libNgU, lo que hizo que los dispositivos dejaran de usar el generador de números aleatorios por hardware STM32 y pasaran a usar el generador software Yasmarang, inicializado con datos públicamente accesibles como el número de serie del chip. Afecta a frases semilla creadas en dispositivos Mk2/Mk3 (firmware 4.0.1–4.1.9 y hasta 5.0.3), Mk4/Mk5 (hasta v5.6.0) y Q (hasta v1.5.0Q). Se excluyen aquellas creadas con al menos 50 lanzamientos de dados independientes o una passphrase BIP-39 fuerte y única. Los usuarios deben generar una nueva frase semilla en firmware corregido y transferir sus activos. Un caso ilustrativo es el de un inversor de 39 años que perdió 2 BTC (unos 130.000 dólares) en minutos, ahorrados durante ocho años mediante trabajo físico como protección contra la hiperinflación en su país, con el objetivo de una jubilación anticipada a los 50 años. Su estrategia conservadora de "comprar y mantener en frío" se vio truncada, dejándolo devastado y decidido a abandonar las criptomonedas. Este incidente recuerda vulnerabilidades históricas por generadores de números aleatorios débiles, como la de la biblioteca BitcoinJS (2011-2015), que causó grandes pérdidas. Subraya que el almacenamiento offline no garantiza automáticamente seguridad criptográfica, especialmente cuando la entropía se ve comprometida dentro del propio dispositivo "cerrado".
