CBOE eyes crypto perpetuals as Kalshi upends futures market

CBOE has begun evaluating a conversion of its Bitcoin and Ether futures into perpetual contracts after crypto perpetuals generated more than $8.5 billion in trading volume on Kalshi within weeks of launch.

According to a June 23 report from The Wall Street Journal, CBOE Global Markets is considering turning its continuous Bitcoin and Ether futures into perpetual futures following recent regulatory developments in the United States.

The report cited Rob Hocking, CBOE’s global head of derivatives, who said the exchange is exploring the possibility after the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission approved cryptocurrency perpetual futures for prediction market operator Kalshi.

While Hocking did not provide a timeline for any changes, the comments place one of the largest U.S. exchange operators among a growing list of firms responding to fresh competition in the perpetual futures market.

CBOE introduced its continuous Bitcoin and Ether futures contracts in December, offering products with expirations extending as far as 10 years.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the exchange is now studying whether perpetual contracts could provide an alternative structure following the CFTC’s decision to permit similar products on regulated U.S. venues.

BTC Prophet: 20-Day 380 Million HTX Challenge

Analyzing Bitcoin’s 15% June decline despite $43mln in whale buysBitcoin’s sentiment remained mildly bearish heading into the latest trading week, with the asset locked in a ranging phase after failing to close above $65,000 over the past week.

More broadly, Bitcoin [$BTC] has traded below the $70,000 mark for roughly 21 days as bearish pressure persisted.

Fresh whale activity over the past day revived interest in whether large buyers could push the asset higher, so AMBCrypto examined how whale flows have shaped Bitcoin’s price action in recent weeks.

Whales step in with major buys
Whales matter to any asset because of the capital they deploy and because they tend to hold for the longer term, unlike retail traders, who typically offload more quickly.

Over the past 24 hours, whale entries into Bitcoin drew attention once again. One whale bought 500 Bitcoin—worth roughly $32.31 million—from custodian BitGo and moved the coins to a private wallet, signalling a higher likelihood that the investor intends to hold for the long term.

Ethereum's much-hated staking 'tax' may already be obsolete

Ethereum's latest "funding crisis" has triggered a fierce debate over whether to tax staking rewards or to pursue funding from large ETH holders for new organizations like EthLabs. Ethereum is running out of money, according to former insiders.

The warning has sparked one of the fiercest Ethereum governance debates in months: should the network fund developers by taxing staking rewards, or just rely on wealthy Ether holders to bankroll its ecosystem?

At the center of the debate is a controversial proposal from Kleros co-founder Clément Lesaege. He suggested redirecting up to 10% of validator rewards to ecosystem funding through a protocol-level mechanism called Validator Redirected Revenue.

Lesaege argued that this may be necessary to solve Ethereum's "coordination failure" and reduce the underfunding of shared ecosystem work.

The idea was met with a wave of backlash, with critics warning of cartel-like incentives and a dangerous precedent for validator-led redistribution

Cardano (ADA) network activity barely changed after the Leios Musashi Dojo testnet went live on June 23, with daily transactions flat and active addresses near four-month lows.

The launch marks a major step for Cardano’s scaling plan. Yet the on-chain data and social signals tell a more cautious story about whether users have noticed.

The Testnet Barely Moved Cardano’s Network Activity

The headline event did little to the chain itself. Daily transactions held near 25,000, in line with the past three months, with no lasting lift after the testnet went live. The testnet is the first live trial of a scaling upgrade built for far higher throughput, a step toward a planned 2026 mainnet.

The one clear surge came on June 4 and 5, when transactions jumped above 60,000. That spike lined up with a sharp sell-off, so it appears to reflect liquidation activity rather than fresh adoption.

Cardano active staking addresses tell a softer story. The count of distinct staking accounts transacting each day fell to about 5,000 on June 21, a 120-day low, against a 7,000 to 8,000 norm earlier in the window.

Cardano Activity Versus ADA Price: Dune

Fewer active accounts points to thinner everyday demand, which suggests the upgrade buzz has not drawn users back.

Note: That figure uses Dune’s stake-address method, so it runs lower than broader trackers that count every payment address. The direction, not the absolute level, is the point.

So the network looks quiet, but ADA on-chain data is only one lens. Crowd mood often moves first.

Social Sentiment Still Leans Positive

Cardano sentiment has held up better than the price slump would suggest. Santiment’s positive sentiment score sits at 8.29, against a negative score of 3.13, so optimism stil

Crypto PAC's $5.5 million Congress pick gets Maryland win, more crypto allies advanceThe leading crypto political action committee, Fairshake, often backs its favored hopefuls for the U.S. House of Representatives with ad campaigns in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, but it devoted Senate-level money - some e $5.5 million - to Adrian Boafo, a Democrat who just won his party's nomination for a Maryland seat on Tuesday.

The state delegate's dominant victory records another success for the industry's super PAC and its affiliates after having notched a big primary election win with its $12 million devoted to Barry Moore's Alabama Senate bid last week.

Boafo's campaign website says he's looking to "provide responsible regulatory clarity for innovators building the next generation of financial tools, though it also included consumer-protection language often associated with crypto-resistance Democrats. Still, he has a record of pro-crypto legislative efforts in his state and favorably completed advocacy group Stand With Crypto's political questionnaire to earn that group's "A" rating.

The industry's support didn't go unnoticed. The open seat drew a massive number of Democratic candidates to replace outgoing Rep. Steny Hoyer, and Maryland's U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen bashed the "obscene amount of big special-interest money" Boafo received in the race.

Chainlink Launches Pangea for Stablecoin FX Settlement With Global Banks

Chainlink teams up with 47 South Korean, European banks to speed up international money transfers
Blockchain infrastructure company Chainlink said it is joining a group of banks that collectively represent over $10 trillion in assets under management to unlock real-time, stablecoin-based cross-border payments for foreign-exchange trades within a year.

The coalition, called Project Pangea, aims to redefine the global FX markets, Niki Ariyasinghe, Chainlink’s vice president of Asia-Pacific and the Middle East, said in a video interview on Tuesday. In addition to Chainlink, the group includes Qivalis, a euro stablecoin consortium backed by 37 European banks, and UniKA, a Korean banking alliance representing more than 10 commercial banks.

The project aims to explore moving foreign-exchange settlement from a traditional 48-hour (T+2) timeline toward near-instant (T+0) settlement using regulated euro- and South Korean won-pegged stablecoins, or crypto tokens whose value is tied 1:1 to the underlying currency.

The initiative will evaluate whether the stablecoins can be exchanged through atomic payment-versus-payment (PvP) settlement, in which both sides of a currency trade settle simultaneously or not at all, thereby reducing counterparty and settlement risk.

The project goes beyond a tech experiment, Ariyasinghe said. Chainlink is drawing a line in the sand between theoretical "proofs-of-concept" and actual infrastructure.

"This is not just a POC," Ariyasinghe said. "Everyone's coming in with their eyes wide open. Appetite is very much about building real infrastructure ... The target is live transactions within a legal, regulatory compliance framework within the next 12 months."

A $150 billion trade corridor

The initiative is focusing on the trade corridor between Europe and South Korea, an economic artery that processes over $150 billion in goods and services annually, making it one of the world's 15 largest trade routes

On June 24, SpaceX issued $25 billion in investment-grade bonds, marking the company's final step in replacing high-cost debt. This high-cost debt was used to finance Elon Musk's acquisition of X (formerly Twitter) in 2022, as well as loans and bonds issued by the artificial intelligence lab xAI last year to cover its rapid cash burn. Had these entities not been incorporated into SpaceX, they would have incurred approximately $1.8 billion in interest expenses on a total of $17.5 billion in debt this year. Now, the merged SpaceX will bear an annual interest cost of about $1.5 billion with the initial bond issuance size of $25 billion.
