Özet

Bearish sentiments for Ether (ETH), the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, continues to build up.

Bearish sentiments for Ether (ETH), the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, continues to build up. ETH is currently trading around its July low of around $1,290, a level that analysts expect prices to fall from to between $750-$850 in the coming months.

According to the pseudonymous market analyst ‘CryptoCapo,’ the price of ETH has reached its next support level at the current price. Based on this, the analyst expects the market to show a slight bounce that will test the neckline of the Head & Shoulders (H&S) technical pattern due to a concentration of demand or buying interest.

Following this will be a bearish continuation characterized by a selloff that will dump the price of ETH to the primary target price of between $750-$850, likely to be the local bottom for several months.

The analysis is coming after the price of ETH has taken a hit from both a ‘sell-the-news’ and Fed rate hike sell pressures. However, it is not the only bearish price prediction for ETH.

In a TIME report, several analysts also indicated pessimism for the ETH market for several reasons. Venture capitalist Kavita Gupta forecasted a crash to as low as $500 if the broader market sell-off deepens. At the same time, the crypto market analyst Wendy O. also expects ETH to drop to around $750, an 85% drawdown from its all-time of $4800.

ETH bulls still hopeful for an upward breakout in 2022

Ether bulls persist in the market despite the prevailing bearish price trend of the second largest cryptocurrency. In the same TIME report, several analysts disclosed that they expect the price of ETH to close out 2022 to its previous high and even set new highs in 2023.

“I believe ethereum can go to $8,000. Ethereum is the clear leader, but other blockchains are onboarding new users at a faster pace due to ethereum’s high gas fees and low transaction speed,” said Ian Balina, investor and founder of crypto research and media company Token Metrics.

Options data noted by crypto and blockchain analytics company Glassnode indicates that traders are equally optimistic about an upside in the price of ETH. Per Glassnode’s report, despite ‘The Merge‘ – Ethereum blockchain’s transition to proof-of-stake – being completed, traders have yet to close their risk hedging positions in the ETH derivatives market.

Idle Macs Can Also Make Money? An Overview of Eigen Labs' Decentralized AI Inference Network Darkbloom

AI inference is becoming a crucial layer of internet infrastructure, yet it remains largely dependent on costly, capacity-limited centralized systems with potential security risks. Meanwhile, millions of powerful computers sit idle globally. Eigen Labs' Darkbloom network aims to utilize this idle capacity by enabling distributed AI inference on Mac computers, specifically those with Apple Silicon chips. Darkbloom's architecture consists of three components: users who send inference requests, a coordinator (operated by Eigen Labs) that routes these requests, and providers (Mac owners) whose machines run the models and return outputs without being able to see the request content. The system prioritizes privacy through a hardened provider process, software integrity checks, and hardware-supported attestation based on Apple's security architecture to ensure verifiable privacy. Economically, Darkbloom differs from traditional models. It leverages existing hardware, with marginal costs primarily driven by electricity, allowing it to offer pricing roughly 50% lower than major API aggregators. Providers keep 100% of the inference revenue, and the project does not rely on token subsidies; earnings come solely from real AI inference demand. However, early-stage earnings are modest, with top providers currently earning under $6 per day, influenced by factors like hardware specs, uptime, and network demand. The network currently supports models like Google's Gemma 4 and OpenAI's GPT-OSS via OpenRouter. To participate as a provider, users need an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 14 or later, must install the Darkbloom provider software, and keep the machine online with a stable internet connection.

Which Crypto Sectors Have Been "Eaten" by AI Agents?

The article examines which crypto sectors have been increasingly dominated by AI Agents and which remain human-centric. In certain high-speed, efficiency-driven areas, AI Agents have taken clear control. This includes derivatives/perpetuals trading, where bots outperform humans significantly (e.g., a contest showed 0% of AI Agents were liquidated vs. 43% of humans), arbitrage/MEV extraction, and yield optimization (with ~68% of new DeFi protocols in Q1 2026 featuring autonomous AI Agents). Spot trading and portfolio optimization are also seeing heavy Agent adoption. However, the shift is not universal. In "battleground" sectors, both Agents and humans coexist. In prediction markets, Agents dominate short-term arbitrage, but humans still outperform in long-term, nuanced judgment calls. In DeFi lending, while liquidation is automated, core deposit/borrow decisions remain largely human-driven. Sectors still firmly led by human activity include stablecoin payments and card-based spending (driven by real-world economic activity and remittances) and wallets, which serve as the crucial human-verification and approval layer. The rise of Agents increases the need for robust human-Agent verification layers. Projects like World/AgentKit, t54, Self Protocol, and Kite AI are building infrastructure to create trust, security, and accountability by binding Agents to verified human identities. In conclusion, while AI Agents have decisively "eaten" speed and optimization-focused crypto sectors, human judgment, trust, and real-world context remain dominant in areas that create broad economic value, such as payments and identity. The future likely involves a symbiotic relationship where Agents require human verification and oversight to operate effectively.

After Rising 11 Times in a Year, Micron's Earnings Report Becomes a Stress Test for the AI Memory Market

**Micron's Upcoming Earnings: A Crucial Test for the AI Memory Rally** Investors in AI memory stocks face a critical moment on June 24th, when Micron Technology reports quarterly earnings. The stock, having surged approximately 11-fold from $103 to $1,134 over the past year, carries immense market expectations. Wall Street consensus forecasts a staggering ~932% year-over-year jump in EPS to around $19.72 and ~270% revenue growth to ~$345 billion, largely driven by sold-out HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) capacity through 2026. Analysts have aggressively revised estimates upward over the last 90 days, with EPS expectations rising 68%. This creates a high bar: even strong results risk a sell-off if they fail to meet these elevated projections. Notably, price forecasts from institutions like Citi (predicting ~200% DRAM price increases in 2026) are already among the most bullish on Wall Street, not conservative. The key metric to watch is gross margin, guided to a record ~81%. Such peak profitability raises questions about sustainability in the historically cyclical memory sector. While management has signaled continued strength, the stock's direction post-earnings will likely hinge more on forward guidance for the next quarter and details on HBM capacity expansion for 2027, rather than the already-anticipated stellar past results. The report represents a major pressure test for the high-flying AI memory trade.

Toss Bank, Solana Launch Blockchain-Based Cross-Border Payments Trial

South Korea's Toss Bank and the Solana Foundation have launched a proof-of-concept trial to explore blockchain technology for cross-border payments. The initiative aims to test whether using the Solana network can make remittances faster and more efficient than traditional systems. This project is focused on technical validation and assessing transaction performance, not on launching a commercial product. It reflects the financial sector's broader effort to find practical blockchain applications beyond cryptocurrencies. The partnership exemplifies how traditional institutions are collaborating with blockchain platforms to innovate payment infrastructure and improve cross-border transaction efficiency.
