19.5% Open Interest Drop Points to Healthier BTC Market

source-logo Leverage Reset Shifts Focus to Spot Demand

Bitcoin's futures market has undergone a sharp leverage reset. Traders are now watching whether the next move will be driven by spot demand rather than derivatives speculation. Data shared by Cryptoquant on June 22 showed total $BTC Open Interest across exchanges falling from $26.0 billion to $20.89 billion during June.

The drop in futures exposure outpaced the decline in price. Bitcoin fell from roughly $71,200 at the start of the month to $63,234 by June 21, down 11.4%, while Open Interest contracted 19.5%, indicating futures exposure was reduced more aggressively than the decline in $BTC price.

Referring to the decline in futures positioning and the reduction in leveraged exposure across the market, the analyst stated:

"So far, the data shows that excess leverage has been reduced."

Traders often track the relationship between price and Open Interest to assess market structure. During the first week of June, $BTC fell to a local low of $60,900 on June 6 while Open Interest dropped from $26.0 billion to about $22.4 billion, a pattern consistent with liquidations and position reductions rather than a buildup of new leveraged positions.

BTC Prophet: 20-Day 380 Million HTX Challenge

The Starknet Foundation, in collaboration with RareSkills, has published a free e-book on advanced smart contract development on Starknet using the Cairo programming language.

Most code is written by agents instead of by hand. However, to manage coding agents effectively, developers must

Understand the design space afforded by the Starknet blockchain.

Be able to quickly read code the agents produce.

Write strong testing frameworks to prevent bugs from being introduced

Starknet offers stronger support for features such as account abstraction, batched transactions, and smart contract upgradeability compared to other solutions. Starknet also provides a strong developer tooling with Starknet Foundry.

However, if developers are unaware of the expanded design space Starknet offers, they might unintentionally copy outdated design patterns that they used previously. They might also miss opportunities to significantly improve end-user UX.

AI is a productivity tool, not a substitute for domain knowledge. Thus, the e-book goes beyond code examples and explains what happens “behind the scenes,” helping developers build a cohesive mental model of how their code interacts with the Starknet blockchain. This makes learning more engaging than memorizing a list of features.

“Our team did a fantastic job creating this e-book, which spans over 50,000 words. The team went above and beyond, even turning dry technical diagrams into animated schematics that convey the same information with less burden for the reader. I’m also grateful to the reviewers who built applications based on the provided resource to really tease out any aspects of the book that weren’t completely clear and compelling,” said Jeffrey Scholz, the founder of RareSkills.

“Rareskills did such a good job with their deep dive into Starknet’s technology that at the end, instead

slips toward $63,000 as a tech selloff drags risk assets lowerBitcoin fell toward $63,000 on Tuesday, caught in a broad retreat from risk as investors pulled out of the technology stocks that have led markets all year.

The token traded around $63,640, down 0.9% over 24 hours and 3.3% on the week, per CoinDesk data, after touching about $65,076 on Monday and sliding through the session. The selling was marketwide. Ether fell 0.9% to $1,719 and is also down 3.3% on the week, XRP dropped 1.6% to $1.12 for a 9% weekly loss, solana lost 3.4% to $71 and dogecoin slid 6.6% over seven days.

Tron was the rare gainer, up 1.3% on the day and 4.6% on the week. Hyperliquid's HYPE fell 4.8% on the week.

The pressure came from outside crypto. A rotation out of this year's best-performing technology and chip shares sank global equities, with a gauge of Asian stocks falling more than 2% after a record close and South Korea's Kospi plunging more than 6% on fears that the rally in chipmakers had run too far.

S&P 500 futures fell 0.8% and Nasdaq 100 contracts dropped 1.3%, following a slide in megacap tech and rising bond yields that pulled US stocks lower on Monday. Brent crude edged below $78 a barrel and gold retreated.

That marks a shift in what is steering crypto. For weeks bitcoin moved on each twist of the Iran story. Now, with a peace roadmap in place and oil sliding, the dominant force is the same Al-driven tech trade that has carried equities to records, and crypto is fallina as that trade wobhles

A Crypto Theft Case Moves From Charges To Guilty PleasTwo Texas brothers have pleaded guilty in a federal case involving the armed kidnapping of a Minnesota family and the theft of $8 million in cryptocurrency, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. The case is one of the clearest recent examples of how crypto crime is not limited to phishing links, exchange hacks or smart contract exploits.Federal prosecutors said the defendants held victims at gunpoint and forced a cryptocurrency transfer. The plea marks a major step forward in a case that originally drew attention because of the violence involved and the size of the crypto theft.








Physical Security Becomes A Crypto RiskThe case is especially disturbing because it shows how criminals can target people directly when they believe large digital asset balances are accessible. Hardware wallets, seed phrases, multisig setups and cold storage can reduce online attack risk, but they do not automatically remove physical coercion risk.For high-net-worth crypto holders, that creates a different security model. The question is not only “Can someone hack my wallet?” It is also “Can someone identify me, locate me, threaten me, or force me to authorize a transaction?” Self-custody gives users control, but that control can become dangerous if access is concentrated in one person, one device or one location.That is why serious crypto security planning often includes operational privacy, distributed signing, withdraw
