Tracking Digital Asset Markets Beyond Crypto-Native Venues

Özet

Glassnode has expanded its analytics platform to track digital asset markets beyond crypto-native venues. New data includes daily price and volume for U.S. spot ETFs and publicly-listed digital asset treasury (DAT) companies. This allows users to compare the behavior of these listed equities against underlying crypto assets, assessing which stocks act as strong proxies. ETF trading volume data provides insights into institutional participation and liquidity, helping to distinguish genuine market trends from thin, speculative moves. These new metrics offer a unified view of crypto exposure through traditional finance instruments, bridging the gap between on-chain and traditional market data.

Glassnode has continued to expand its Traditional Finance coverage in Studio, helping users connect crypto-native market activity with the growing universe of listed instruments tied to digital assets.

This expansion reflects the growing role of ETFs, treasury companies, and other listed vehicles in digital asset market analysis, as institutional exposure increasingly moves beyond spot markets.

Two new metric families are now live:

US Spot ETF Price & Volume
US Digital Asset Treasury Company Price & Volume.

For each selected crypto asset, users can now retrieve daily price and traded volume across the relevant US spot ETFs and publicly listed treasury companies, with one time series per ticker. This gives investors a more complete view of how crypto exposure is being expressed through traditional equity markets.

DATs: Analyzing Equity Behavior Relative to Crypto

For US Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies, the data makes it easier to compare how listed equities behave relative to the underlying crypto asset and assess which names exhibit stronger or weaker equity beta to crypto market movements.

For example, users can compare BTC performance against companies holding BTC on their balance sheet to identify which stocks behave more like direct crypto proxies, and which names trade with a more idiosyncratic equity profile.

US Spot ETF Volume: Assessing Participation and Liquidity Conditions

The addition of trading volume is particularly useful for US spot ETFs. Trading volume provides insight into liquidity, participation, and conviction.

For example, a sharp spike in ETF trading volume around a major price move or macro event can signal heavy institutional repositioning — and comparing ETF volume against the underlying spot market shows how much real flow is moving through TradFi venues versus crypto-native ones. Sustained volume can confirm genuine demand behind a price trend, while thin volume on a move may warrant more caution.

Together, these new metrics strengthen Glassnode’s ability to bridge crypto-native data with traditional market instruments, giving users a unified view of spot assets, ETFs, and listed treasury vehicles directly in Studio.

Hoskinson Denies Cardano Exit Rumors: ‘I’m Not Leaving’

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson dismissed rumors of his departure, clarifying in a June 4 livestream that he is only stepping back from public communication, not resigning from the project. This followed community concern after his "taking a break" post on X. Hoskinson cited an unsustainable level of online toxicity, with nearly one-third of replies to his posts being hostile or abusive, making meaningful engagement nearly impossible. While acknowledging X's role in crypto information flow, he stated the psychological cost is too high. He emphasized his focus remains on technological development like RealFi, Midnight, and research, not on ADA's price. Hoskinson described a "tale of two Cardanos": significant protocol advancements versus poor market performance leading critics to label it a failure. He called for the community to resolve this dissonance by moving discussions away from X, rethinking incentives, and developing a new shared roadmap. He was critical of the Cardano Foundation's lack of accountability. Hoskinson announced he will take time away from public videos and social media to reflect, but will continue working on Midnight. He stated he will only engage in channels where he is treated with respect and dignity.

There’s An FOMC Meeting Scheduled This Month, But Will The Fed Decision Affect Bitcoin?

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is scheduled to meet on June 16-17, with markets widely expecting the Fed to maintain interest rates at their current level of 3.5-3.75%. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, there is a 99.4% probability of rates remaining unchanged. The outcome of this meeting is anticipated to impact Bitcoin's price. If rates are held steady, Bitcoin's current market trajectory is likely to continue unchanged. Conversely, an unexpected rate hike could trigger bearish sentiment by reducing investor risk appetite and market liquidity, potentially leading to sell-offs. A rate cut, though currently considered improbable, would be the most bullish scenario, encouraging investment in risk assets like Bitcoin and potentially driving its price higher.

Anthropic's IPO Launch: Commercial Miracle or Valuation Bubble?

Anthropic has confidentially filed for an IPO, led by Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, potentially going public by October. Following its latest $650 billion funding round, its pre-IPO valuation stands at $965 billion, with projections reaching up to $2 trillion at listing, which would make it the highest-valued private company ever. The article, written by Fu Sheng, addresses skepticism that this represents an AI bubble akin to the 2000 dot-com crash. It argues the current situation differs fundamentally. Unlike the internet bubble era, which relied on speculative narratives with little revenue, Anthropic's valuation is backed by unprecedented, measurable financial performance. Key data points include: * **Revenue Growth:** ARR skyrocketed from $10 billion in early 2025 to $470 billion by May 2026, targeting $100 billion by year-end—a growth curve unmatched in business history. * **Profitability:** It achieved operating profitability in Q2 2026 with an estimated $5.6 billion profit. * **Efficiency:** With ~3,000 employees and ~$470 billion ARR, its revenue per employee exceeds $10 million. Products like Claude Code, launched less than a year ago, already generate $25 billion in annualized revenue. * **Enterprise Adoption:** It boasts a strong enterprise client base, with 8 of the Fortune 10 and over 1,000 large firms spending over $1 million annually on Claude. The valuation is framed using a traditional SaaS model (e.g., a 10x Price-to-Sales multiple on $100 billion revenue). The author contends the core question for analysts has shifted from "How big could this be?" to "How much is it earning and will earn next quarter?" The discussion extends beyond Anthropic to a broader paradigm shift: the transition from a "carbon-based" to a "silicon-based" economy. Companies are increasingly prioritizing investment in compute and AI capabilities over human resources, as these directly scale productivity and competitive advantage. Anthropic's IPO is thus positioned not just as a corporate milestone, but as a price anchor for this new economic era.

US Senators Press Bank Regulators For ‘Fair’ Crypto Capital Rules

A group of U.S. Senate Republicans, led by Senator Cynthia Lummis, is urging federal bank regulators to establish clear and fair capital rules for banks involved with crypto assets. In a letter to the Federal Reserve, FDIC, and OCC, the lawmakers criticized the international Basel Committee's standards, which impose a punitive 1,250% risk weight on crypto assets, calling it a de facto ban not based on actual risk. They applauded recent interagency guidance that granted tokenized securities the same capital treatment as traditional ones, arguing this risk-based principle should apply consistently to all digital assets. The senators called on the agencies to develop a new capital framework, aligning with recent legislative progress on crypto market structure. Their push coincides with testimonies from top regulators, who emphasized a shift toward more risk-based supervision and responsible innovation, while also addressing stablecoin oversight under new proposals.

Near Returns to the AI Stage: Transformation into a Public Chain Due to 'Payroll Difficulties,' Agent and Privacy Emerge as New Growth Narratives

NEAR Returns to AI Origins: From Payroll Struggles to Blockchain, Now Focusing on AI Agents and Privacy NEAR Protocol's journey began not with grand blockchain ambitions, but from a practical hurdle: its AI startup founders, including Transformer paper co-author Illia Polosukhin, couldn't efficiently pay international developers in 2017. This led them to pivot and build a high-performance, scalable blockchain. After years navigating various crypto narratives like sharding and cross-chain interoperability, NEAR is now leveraging its AI roots to re-enter the AI arena. A key driver is its "NEAR Intents" layer, which abstracts complex cross-chain transactions. Users simply state their goal (e.g., swap BTC for ETH), and a solver network finds the optimal route. This system has processed over $20B in cross-chain volume, generating significant fee revenue. A major growth area is private transactions via "Confidential Intents/Swaps," which hide trade details until settlement to protect against MEV and front-running. Remarkably, private swaps recently accounted for over 40% of NEAR's transaction volume, highlighting strong demand but also potential regulatory scrutiny. With its AI-founder pedigree, NEAR is positioning itself at the intersection of blockchain, AI agents, and privacy, aiming to become infrastructure for the emerging agent economy while navigating the challenges of its rapid adoption.
