Bitcoin Is A ‘Digital Labubu’ With No Economic Value: Vanguard Quant Head

Vanguard, the world's second-largest asset manager, has begun allowing Bitcoin ETF trading on its platform, but its overall view on cryptocurrency remains unchanged. According to John Ameriks, Vanguard’s global head of quantitative equity, Bitcoin lacks the economic value of a productive asset, describing it instead as a speculative "digital Labubu" collectible. He stated there is no clear proof that Bitcoin’s technology provides durable economic value, as it lacks income, compounding, and cash-flow properties. While Vanguard now permits clients to trade crypto ETFs at their own discretion, the firm does not advise on crypto investments. Ameriks acknowledged Bitcoin might offer non-speculative value in high-inflation or unstable political environments but emphasized its history is too short for reliable investment thesis. Bitcoin is currently trading around $90,380, down over 2% in 24 hours and nearly 30% below its all-time high.

BTC OGs selling covered calls is the main culprit suppressing price: Analyst

Market analyst Jeff Park identifies long-term Bitcoin whales, or "OGs," selling covered calls as a primary factor suppressing BTC's spot price. This strategy involves selling call options against their existing holdings to collect premiums. Because the underlying BTC has been held for over a decade and doesn't represent new demand, the activity introduces significant sell-side pressure. Market makers, who buy these calls, hedge their exposure by selling spot BTC, which drives prices down. Park concludes that Bitcoin's price is being steered by the options market, leading to choppy price action as whales continue extracting short-term profits. Meanwhile, BTC decoupled from tech stocks in late 2025, with some analysts forecasting a rally if the Fed cuts rates, while others predict a drop to $76,000.

Merlin Chain surges – Is a MERL pullback next after $75M OI peak?

Merlin Chain (MERL), a Bitcoin layer-2 solution, surged 16% amid increased on-chain activity, reaching a new all-time high in Open Interest at $75.79 million. This reflects strong bullish sentiment, with a taker Buy/Sell Ratio of 1.05 indicating dominant buying pressure. Spot market accumulation and exchange outflows further support the upward trend. However, the liquidation heatmap suggests potential downside risk, as unfilled liquidity clusters below current levels could trigger a short-term pullback. Despite the bullish momentum, recent buying hasn't fully offset prior selling pressure, leaving some risk of volatility.

What The Conditional Approval Means For Ripple’s Bank And XRP

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has granted Ripple conditional approval to become a national trust bank. According to crypto analysts, this approval provides Ripple with federal regulatory oversight and significantly strengthens the position of both its RLUSD stablecoin and XRP. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse described the development as a major step forward, particularly for RLUSD, which is positioned as a compliant stablecoin under rigorous supervision. The approval is expected to drive greater institutional adoption of XRP and Ripple’s payment services, with the firm noting that over half of its transactions already use XRP. Swiss bank AMINA has also become the first European bank to integrate Ripple’s services, further expanding XRP's utility. At the time of writing, XRP was trading at $2.01.

FARTCOIN draws smart money interest, yet price stays trapped – Why?

Despite being identified as the most bought token by smart money over 24 hours, Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) continued trading within a bearish flag pattern, keeping technical pressure high. While smart money inflows provided short-term support, the price remained compressed between key levels. It traded near $0.36, just above a critical ascending support at $0.35. A break below this level could invalidate the current structure. On the upside, resistance lies at $0.42–$0.43. A confirmed breakout above this zone could target $0.65–$0.70. However, momentum indicators like RSI showed bearish divergence, signaling weakening buying pressure and elevated downside risk. Broader memecoin sentiment stayed cautious despite selective capital rotation into stronger setups like FARTCOIN.

The Securities and Exchange Commission publishes crypto custody guide

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has published a crypto custody guide outlining best practices and risks for storing digital assets. The bulletin compares self-custody with third-party custody, warning investors to understand policies like asset rehypothecation and commingling. It also details the pros and cons of hot wallets (internet-connected, vulnerable to hacking) and cold wallets (offline, but riskier if keys are lost). The move signals a shift from the SEC’s previously hostile stance under former Chair Gary Gensler. The crypto community welcomed the guide as a transformative step, with some noting the agency is now educating rather than opposing the industry. This follows recent SEC approval for DTCC to begin tokenizing traditional financial assets.

Hyperliquid’s Latest Announcement: Why It Could Be A Game Changer For HYPE Investors

Hyperliquid, a leading decentralized exchange (DEX), has announced the pre-alpha launch of a portfolio margin system on its testnet. This upgrade unifies spot and perpetual trading to significantly enhance capital efficiency for traders. Initially, users can borrow USDC using the native HYPE token as collateral, with plans to add USDH and Bitcoin later. The system supports advanced strategies like carry trades and allows idle assets to automatically earn yield. Market expert Austin King highlighted the historical significance of portfolio margining, noting its transformative impact in traditional finance by drastically reducing margin requirements and boosting market liquidity. He believes this will attract large-scale liquidity providers to Hyperliquid by improving returns per margin dollar. Despite HYPE's recent price decline, it remains up 60% year-to-date.

Why is AB crypto’s price up? USD1 integration, demand and more…

Despite broader market weakness, AB crypto's price rose approximately 12% in the past 24 hours, with trading volume surging over 53%. The rally was primarily driven by the integration of USD1 stablecoin following a partnership with World Liberty Finance (WLFI), boosting DeFi utility and liquidity. Additionally, on-chain activity showed increased demand, with total holders climbing to 30.57K. Locked supply fell below 8%, reducing near-term sell pressure. Although the mid-term trend remains bearish and sellers still dominate momentum, technical indicators suggest weakening selling pressure. AB is trading near May lows, a historical reversal zone, but sustained recovery depends on continued demand and broader market conditions.

Solana ETFs record 7-day inflow streak despite price slump

Despite a significant price decline and broader crypto market downturn, Solana (SOL) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have recorded a seven-day inflow streak. The highest single-day inflow was approximately $16.6 million, bringing total net inflows to $674 million. This institutional interest persists even as SOL’s price has fallen nearly 55% from its January all-time high of $295 and struggles to break the $140-$145 resistance level. The token continues to trade well below its 365-day moving average, with its market cap dropping over 2% in the past week. The ongoing ETF inflows highlight sustained traditional finance engagement amid challenging market conditions.

Mapping Bitcoin’s liquidity slowdown as old coins re-enter circulation

Bitcoin's rally is showing signs of strain as long-held coins begin to re-enter circulation, signaling potential distribution alarms for the first time in its history. Key indicators, including the Reserve Risk metric, suggest early holders are steadily releasing BTC into the market, often through exchanges, ETFs, and institutional vehicles. This movement coincides with declining liquidity, as evidenced by the falling Inter-exchange Flow Pulse (IFP), which has dipped below its 90-day moving average—a pattern historically associated with slower or corrective market phases. Despite trading near $90,000, Bitcoin remains below key moving averages, with the RSI showing neutral momentum and on-balance volume flattening, indicating a lack of fresh demand. The market appears to be entering a consolidation stage, with thinning capital flows posing challenges for near-term upside momentum.
