Introduzione

The price of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) token went up approximately 20% since the end of last week.

The price of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) token went up approximately 20% since the end of last week. The reason behind the rally is twofold: one is that 2.41 billion Shiba Inu have been burned, e.i. sent to so-called inferno wallets in order to make the popular dog token more scarce and lift its price.

The burn was announced by the @shibburn Twitter account, and the burnings of SHIB tokens can be followed on the shibburn.com website. According to the @shibburn tracking account, several massive amounts of Shiba Inu have been burned, adding up to a total of around 2.41 billion SHIB tokens.

Whale makes huge purchase of SHIB

The burning of SHIB tokens, which is not unusual per se, was done through a series of portions, among which the biggest one amounted to 1,351,643,000 tokens burned between April 8 and 9. Besides this bigger portion, other burns amounted to 442 million and another one burned slightly more than 258 million SHIB tokens. Also, a total of just more than 324 million have been burned in portions of nine transactions in the past 24 hours alone.

However, the large burn of SHIB tokens since the end of last week was not the only driver for the increase in the market value of the meme coin. According to the WhaleStast Twitter account, the second reason behind the increase in market value might be the fact that a large whale bought a staggering amount of 775,473,150,952 SHIB, equivalent to $20,697,378 at the time of the transaction.

The Whale, in ether (ETH) terms, and the owner of the wallet “BlueWhale0073”, is ranked number 12 by WhaleStats – a service that keeps track of the top 100 wallets on the Ethereum blockchain. Shiba Inu is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network.

Robinhood adding support for SHIB

Both the SHIB token burns and the large purchase by BlueWhale0073 coincide with the announcement that the popular investment- and trading app Robinhood is adding support for SHIB, along with Solana (SOL), Compound (COMP), and Polygon (MATIC). Robinhood finally gave in after the so-called SHIB Army had been asking the trading app to list SHIB for several months.

All four tokens now added to Robinhood sawa rise in market prices following Robinhood’s announcement, SHIB with as much as 20%. Since the crypto market, in general, has been on the gloomy side the past few days, market values of these tokens have fallen back to levels prior to Robinhood’s announcement.

At the time of writing, the SHIB token is valued at $0.00002664, down 3.4% over the past 24 hours.

Dalio Warns: AI Boom Shows Signs of a Bubble, Day of Reckoning Will Be the Time of Burst

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warns that the current artificial intelligence investment boom shows classic signs of a bubble, which he expects will eventually burst. In a Bloomberg Television interview, he noted that great technological revolutions often lead to capital inflows that create bubbles, making it difficult for investors and companies to calibrate their spending accurately—either overspending to capture market share or underspending and losing their competitive position. This caution comes amid significant rallies in AI-related assets, particularly chipmakers, driven by soaring demand for data centers and high-bandwidth chips, raising debates about overheating valuations. In contrast, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently asserted that investors embracing the AI wave would see "crazy" returns and dismissed concerns over return on investment for data center spending as outdated. Dalio, however, focuses on the risks in the profit realization phase. He argues that bubbles tend to show signs of破裂 when markets transition from investment to the need for tangible returns, describing the burst as a process of converting paper wealth into cash. While acknowledging AI's intrinsic value, he expressed concern over the future profitability of some AI companies, suggesting the market is repeating a familiar pattern. The 76-year-old billionaire, who fully exited Bridgewater in 2025, has a net worth estimated at $21.5 billion according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Privacy Coin Crisis of Confidence! ZEC Plunges Over 56% in a Single Day

Zcash (ZEC), a leading privacy-focused cryptocurrency, experienced a severe crash on June 5th, plummeting over 56% in a single day and erasing nearly two months of gains. The flash crash was triggered by the disclosure of a critical zero-knowledge proof vulnerability within Zcash's Orchard privacy pool, which had existed since the pool's launch in May 2022. The flaw theoretically allowed an attacker to forge unlimited ZEC undetectably due to the pool's privacy features. The vulnerability was discovered on May 29th by independent security researcher Taylor Hornby during a proactive audit commissioned by Shielded Labs, utilizing AI-assisted analysis. The Zcash development team responded swiftly, implementing an emergency soft fork to disable Orchard transactions on June 2nd and executing a permanent hard fork fix (NU6.2) on June 3rd. Despite the technical fix, a major crisis of confidence emerged. The core issue is that Orchard's privacy design makes it cryptographically impossible to prove whether the vulnerability was exploited over the past four years, casting permanent doubt on the historical supply integrity of ZEC. While Shielded Labs argues exploitation was unlikely, the inability to provide definitive proof has severely damaged market trust. This sentiment was exacerbated when BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, a prominent ZEC supporter, announced he was selling his entire position. He stated that privacy assets require "perfect security" rather than "probable safety." The combined effect of the disclosure and Hayes's exit ignited widespread panic selling, leading to massive liquidations and significant price decline. Analysts note the event highlights a fundamental tension within privacy coins: the conflict between verifiable supply and cryptographic privacy.

Bitcoin Demand Falls At Fastest Pace Since LUNA Collapse: Data

On-chain data indicates that Bitcoin's total demand has sharply declined over the past month, contracting at its fastest rate since the collapse of the Terra/LUNA ecosystem in May 2022. This "demand" metric, tracking the combined flow of Bitcoin into spot and derivatives markets, has recently plummeted to a 30-day negative change of 501,000 BTC. Analysts note the recent price surge in April and early May was driven solely by speculative futures demand, while spot demand contracted—a pattern historically unsustainable for rallies. With both spot and futures demand now shrinking, the pace of contraction echoes the post-LUNA collapse period. Concurrently, Bitcoin's price has dropped to around $63,200, its lowest level since February.

Bitcoin Falls To $61,300 As Mt. Gox Moves BTC, Raising Selloff Concerns

Bitcoin fell to around $61,300 as markets reacted to Mt. Gox moving funds, raising selloff concerns. The defunct exchange transferred 116.3 BTC (worth ~$8.16 million) directly to Bitstamp, following a larger earlier move of 10,422.65 BTC (~$739 million) to a new wallet. The trustee is working towards the final creditor repayment deadline of October 31, 2026. While most eligible creditors have been repaid, roughly 24,081 BTC (~$1.55 billion) remains under Mt. Gox control, and its on-chain movements are closely watched for potential market pressure. Bitcoin later recovered above $64,000.

The Allocation Value of Gold as 'Financial Insurance' Against US Debt Crisis and High Yields

This report analyzes gold's role as "financial insurance" amid high US bond yields and escalating debt concerns. Gold prices surged from ~$2,624 in early 2025 to a record high of $5,589 by January 2026, driven by five key factors: 1) Unsustainable US fiscal trajectory and debt exceeding $39 trillion, 2) Accelerating de-dollarization and central bank gold purchases (e.g., China added 8 tons in April 2026), 3) Geopolitical tensions and energy-driven inflation from the Iran conflict, 4) Record-high investment demand via ETFs, and 5) Policy uncertainty under the new Fed Chair. Gold's price is inversely related to real interest rates and the US dollar. Investors can gain exposure through physical gold, ETFs like GLD/IAU (low-cost), or mining ETFs like GDX (higher risk/return). Key risks include rising real rates, a stronger dollar, easing geopolitical tensions, and potential overvaluation after the sharp rally. The report recommends a 5-10% portfolio allocation for diversification, viewing gold as a hedge against fiscal instability and systemic risk rather than a growth investment.
