Resumo

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.

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.

"Unlimited Money Printing" Bug Lurked for Four Years, Privacy Coin ZEC Plummets 50% in One Day

A critical "unlimited, undetectable counterfeit" vulnerability existed for nearly four years in the Orchard privacy pool of Zcash (ZEC), a privacy-focused cryptocurrency. The bug, which could theoretically allow attackers to create unlimited fake ZEC, was disclosed by founder Zooko Wilcox on June 5th. While officially patched and deemed low-probability for exploitation, the news triggered a market panic. ZEC's price plummeted over 50% in a single day. The core crisis stems from the inability to prove whether any counterfeit ZEC was created during the vulnerability's active period, as Orchard's design inherently hides transaction details. This casts severe doubt on ZEC's total supply integrity. The sell-off accelerated after prominent investor and ZEC narrative supporter Arthur Hayes announced he had sold his entire position, citing the inability to cryptographically prove the impossibility of extra minting. Community trust eroded further upon learning the bug was discovered with AI-assisted auditing, raising questions about Zcash's development and security review processes. The incident has evolved from a price correction into a fundamental crisis of confidence regarding the network's core security promises.

Bitcoin's 'Rally Ends,' Officially Entering the Later Stage of a Bear Market?

Bitcoin prices declined 13% this week, reversing the recent rebound and signaling a likely transition into the later stages of a bear market. Key on-chain metrics deteriorated, with the short-term holder cost basis falling below the Realized Price—a pattern last seen in early 2022, characteristic of bear market maturity. The rally to ~$82k proved to be a bear market bounce, as evidenced by the 90-day realized profit/loss ratio failing to sustain above the bullish threshold of 2. Daily realized losses surged to $1.35B, including significant selling from long-term holders who accumulated near cycle tops, indicating ongoing supply redistribution. Price was rejected almost precisely at the aggregate US spot ETF cost basis of ~$83k, turning that level into resistance and leaving the average ETF investor underwater again. Spot market selling pressure intensified, with the 7-day volume delta turning significantly negative to its weakest level since February. While a major long liquidation event cleared over $400M in leverage, spot demand has not yet stepped in to absorb the resulting supply. Options markets continue pricing in higher future volatility (elevated volatility risk premium) and maintain a skew toward put options, reflecting persistent demand for downside protection, though not yet panic. Overall, market structure remains fragile. Sustained recovery likely requires a reclaim of the ETF cost basis, a shift back to positive spot demand, and a slowdown in realized loss-taking. Until then, the market risks further downside or extended consolidation within the broader bear trend.

How Risky is the "Death Spiral" of MSTR and STRC?

Summary: This article explores the perceived "death spiral" risk between MicroStrategy (MSTR), its Bitcoin holdings, and its perpetual preferred stock (STRC), drawing comparisons to the LUNA-UST collapse. While both systems feature price anchors, high yields for holders, and potential feedback loops, their core mechanisms differ fundamentally. The MSTR-STRC structure relies on continuous financing to sustain its high dividend payouts, primarily through stock ATM offerings. A negative feedback cycle could occur: falling MSTR stock price makes raising equity capital harder, increasing pressure to sell Bitcoin, which undermines STRC confidence and further depresses MSTR. However, unlike LUNA-UST's automated, direct linkage, the MSTR-STRC loop is weaker and has brakes: STRC dividends can be deferred or rates lowered, and STRC holders have a $100/share liquidation preference in bankruptcy, providing a price floor. The company's sustainability hinges on its ability to continue financing. Its current ~$900 million USD reserves cover only about 6.3 months of its ~$1.71 billion annual interest/dividend burden. The next six months are critical, aligning with both the potential bottom in Bitcoin's four-year cycle and the depletion timeline of its reserves. While a LUNA-style catastrophic collapse is deemed highly unlikely due to structural differences, the key question is whether MicroStrategy can navigate this period through healthy deleveraging to restart its capital engine.
