美元失势又一证据?这一国民众纷纷买入比特币抗通胀!

随着比特币本月创下历史新高,阿根廷人纷纷涌入比特币,寻找缓解永无休止的通货膨胀。阿根廷是全球加密货币使用率最高的国家之一。

据报道,3月第一周,当地加密货币交易所Lemon的单周比特币购买量激增至34700笔,接近20个月来的最高交易量,是2月初的两倍多,也是去年单周平均水平的两倍。数字钱包Belo的首席执行官Manuel Beaudroit表示,到目前为止,比特币和以太坊的交易量比去年同期增长了10倍。

与此同时,比特币近几个月大幅上涨,今年迄今上涨了73%,创下了超过73000美元的历史新高。

在美国现货比特币ETF上市,4月份减半事件引发加密货币投资者的乐观情绪后,比特币的涨势骤然升温,这使该代币在阿根廷成为有吸引力的对冲工具。该国的通胀率仍高达276%。与此同时,阿根廷领导层正在寻求阻止10年来的第6次经济衰退。

通常情况下,在面对不稳定的国内局势时,持有美元一直是阿根廷民众的首选,特别是在其经济问题导致比索价值急剧恶化的情况下。

甚至在去年10月比索兑美元的黑市汇率突破1000之前,美元在阿根廷就已经很普遍了,它的用途包括从租赁到公司工资等方方面面。

然而,比索在过去两个月升值了10%左右,削弱了美元的吸引力。据报道,总统哈维尔·米莱(Javier Milei)为了清理央行资产负债表而控制了比索的流通量增长。

随着比特币的反弹吸引了更多买家,通常与美元等货币挂钩的稳定币的购买量从70%降至60%。但值得注意的是,根据该国非政府组织“比特币阿根廷”(Bitcoin Argentina)的数据,2月份加密货币骗局的报告也增加了五倍。

去年,米莱的竞选活动以阿根廷经济美元化的承诺来说服选民。然而,自去年12月上任以来,他只是降低了比索兑美元的官方汇率,并表示要实现美元化还需要很长一段时间。

对比特币的追捧正在迅速扩张。据The Block报道,根据MicroStrategy周二公布的最新增持比特币数据,该公司现在持有超过1%的比特币供应

此前消息称,MicroStrategy在3月11日至3月18日期间买入约9245枚比特币,目前共持有持有214246枚比特币,价值共计75.3亿美元。

With Labour Changing Leaders, Is the Long-Suppressed UK Crypto Market About to Turn Around?

Labour leader change: Hope for UK crypto market? With Keir Starmer's resignation as Prime Minister and Labour leader, a leadership contest has begun. Andy Burnham, the former Mayor of Greater Manchester and now the overwhelming favourite to succeed, has sparked cautious optimism within the UK cryptocurrency industry. Industry figures hope Burnham, seen as more receptive to digital assets than much of the Labour establishment, could shift the party's traditionally harder line. The leadership transition is expected to be swift, with prediction markets like Polymarket assigning a 97% probability to Burnham becoming the next Prime Minister. However, this political shift comes as a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto, established by law earlier this year, is in its final implementation phase. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is finalizing detailed rules covering trading, custody, stablecoins, and market abuse, with the full regime set to go live in October 2027. While a new Prime Minister can reshuffle ministers and adjust policy priorities, the core regulatory architecture is now law and unlikely to be fundamentally overturned without significant, deliberate government intervention. The main industry hope is that a Burnham government, focusing on economic growth, will ensure the FCA's implementation is pragmatic and growth-oriented. Industry advocates seek proportionate capital requirements, a streamlined licensing process, and clear rules for staking and stablecoins. They argue that embracing the crypto sector could attract investment and listings to London's struggling markets. Despite the optimism, concerns remain that regulatory implementation may still be influenced by more sceptical factions within the Labour party.

A 60-Day Window Depresses Oil Prices, So Why Is the Market Falling Instead?

International oil prices continued to decline on June 23, extending significant losses from the previous session. The market shifted focus from Middle East military risks to actual supply changes following a temporary U.S.-Iran arrangement. The immediate trigger was the resumption of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipping chokepoint, with two tankers passing through, signaling eased near-term supply disruption fears. Prices retreated as the "worst-case scenario" was temporarily averted. A reported 60-day window in a U.S.-Iran understanding allows Iran to sell oil during this period, further dampening supply concerns. However, this arrangement is temporary, linked to nuclear talks, and does not guarantee a long-term solution. Market sentiment remains cautious because the deal could still unravel, potentially reinstating sanctions or disrupting shipping. While these developments have lowered immediate risk premiums, prices have not fully returned to pre-conflict levels. Geopolitical news, particularly regarding the stability of the Strait of Hormuz or the progress of negotiations, could quickly reverse the price drop. Additionally, low U.S. strategic petroleum reserves limit the emergency buffer available if supply shocks reemerge. Therefore, the current price decline reflects a reduction in near-term panic, not a complete elimination of Middle East supply risks.

SK Hynix Market Cap Exceeds Samsung for First Time in 26 Years, Korean Broker Calls for 50% More Upside

SK Hynix's market capitalization surpassed Samsung Electronics for the first time in 26 years on June 22, reaching 208.1 trillion won. The shift reflects a market trend where companies directly benefiting from AI infrastructure, like SK Hynix, are receiving higher valuation premiums than diversified giants. The surge is driven by AI-driven demand for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), where SK Hynix holds a dominant 70-80% market share. Its Q1 2026 revenue exceeded 50 trillion won for the first time, with an operating profit margin of 72%. Hanwha Investment & Securities significantly raised its price target for SK Hynix to 430,000 won, the highest among Korean brokerages. The key rationale is that Long-Term Supply Agreements (LTAs) and robust HBM demand have fundamentally reduced the company's historical profit volatility. Several other brokers have also raised targets, arguing the valuation framework for memory semiconductors is being rewritten, moving away from a cyclical model. Despite the bullish outlook, the stock experienced a pullback of over 5% in regular trading on June 23 after briefly surpassing 3 million won pre-market, amid broader tech sector weakness. Some analysts caution that the市值 overtaking Samsung, whose profit scale and growth forecasts remain higher, could signal short-term overheating. However, high-return investors viewed the dip as a buying opportunity.

GPU Rental Prices Drop 30% in Three Weeks: AI Value Chain Migrating from Nvidia to Memory Chips

GPU rental prices for Nvidia's flagship B200 chip have fallen by approximately 30% over three weeks, dropping from a high of $6.11/hour to $4.22/hour. This decline signals a potential easing of the "compute scarcity" narrative that has long supported AI hardware valuations. Concurrently, the semiconductor market is witnessing a significant divergence: while the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) has risen 15% in the past month, with memory giants Micron and SanDisk each surging nearly 60%, Nvidia's stock has declined about 3% over the same period. Analysts suggest this shift indicates that the AI value chain's bottleneck and profits are migrating from compute (GPUs) to memory. Demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) remains intensely strong, with contract prices soaring over 100% in H1 2026, granting memory manufacturers significant pricing power. In contrast, increased B200 supply from improved manufacturing yields and competitive pressure from new cloud providers are softening GPU rental rates. While long-term contracts, like SpaceX's $30 billion deal with Google, show sustained large-scale demand for Nvidia hardware, the softening spot prices pressure the margins of cloud providers and could eventually impact Nvidia's order flow if chip prices don't adjust. The key takeaway for investors is not a weakening AI thesis, but a recalibration within the sector: pricing power appears to be strengthening for memory chipmakers while showing signs of strain for leading GPU suppliers.
