Ethereum price risks falling below $2,000 as miners and mining pools starts withdrawing millions in staked ETH after Shanghai upgrade.

After the Ethereum Shanghai upgrade, ETH price continues its upside move and even broke the $2,000 level. The fresh liquidity in the market caused a massive rise in trading volume, but experts believe some correction in ETH price before it starts moving upside again.

Moreover, miners and mining pools withdrawing ETH continuously will put additional selling pressure on Ethereum price. The ETH price is trading in the $2,000-$2,150 range this week.

The wallet address linked to the F2Pool mining pool’s co-founder Chun Wang (satofishi.eth) has withdrawn a massive amount of ETH in the last 2 days after the Shanghai (Shapella) upgrade. Until now, 15,886.72 ETH worth over $33 million has been removed in 3,500 withdrawals.


As per Etherscan data, he transferred 1,420 ETH worth over 3 million to Binance today. The ETH flows to crypto exchanges are increasing after the Shanghai upgrade.


Whales are also dumping Ethereum (ETH) to crypto exchanges. Today, a whale “0x2E5f” chose full withdrawals and withdrew a total of 25,855 ETH and transferred 22,000 ETH to Binance for 13.26 million USDT, noted Lookonchain. Whale Alert data also reported 17,284 ETH transferred from an unknown wallet to Coinbase.

Ethereum spot and derivatives trading data indicate limited price movement in the next few days. Breaking below $2,000 could be possible if the month ends in low trading volume and rise in ETH withdrawals.

Even CZ Praised Hyperliquid as 'Awesome', But Its Biggest Moat Might Also Be Its Biggest Risk

In an episode of Galaxy Brains, Binance founder CZ praised Hyperliquid as "awesome" but clarified that while its product is strong, Binance cannot compete in its specific niche due to Hyperliquid's no-KYC, decentralized model. CZ noted he would not personally operate such a model, highlighting the inherent legal and compliance risks tied to its access advantage. The discussion underscores a core market structure conflict: on-chain perp platforms like Hyperliquid thrive on open, low-barrier access, which regulated exchanges like Binance cannot replicate without abandoning their global compliance posture. However, this very advantage makes Hyperliquid a clear target for regulatory scrutiny. The UK FCA has already issued a warning against Hyperliquid for potentially offering unauthorized services to UK users, framing it as a financial services provider rather than neutral infrastructure. Historical cases like the CFTC's action against bZeroX and Ooki DAO further illustrate that regulators may pursue decentralized structures if they facilitate leveraged trading for retail users without proper controls. Meanwhile, regulated venues like Cboe are developing US-compliant "continuous futures" that mimic perpetual exposure, narrowing the product gap. Hyperliquid's long-term edge may increasingly hinge on its access model—the very feature most exposed to regulatory pressure. The key question is whether its "access premium" can withstand escalating legal challenges as on-chain perps gain mainstream attention.

A Hard-Fought Battle to Defend Par Value: STRC Drifts Further Away from $100

STRC, the dividend-paying stock issued by Michael Saylor's bitcoin reserve firm Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), is trading far below its intended $100 par value, closing recently at $80.84. With a key dividend snapshot date approaching, Saylor aims to pull the price back to $100, as per SEC filings stating the company's goal to stabilize the stock near that level. The situation is complicated by the June volume-weighted average price (VWAP) falling below $95, triggering an internal rule that mandates the next dividend increase to be at least double the standard 0.25% per cycle, potentially pushing the annualized dividend yield to 12%. However, attracting buyers with this higher yield faces challenges: the payout is spread over 24 bi-monthly installments, the board can alter or suspend dividends at any time, and there is no guarantee against further price declines. Beyond raising dividends, Strategy has limited tools to boost the stock. These include direct share buybacks (never utilized), halting new share issuances above $100 (which currently cap the price), selling ordinary MSTR shares to build a cash buffer for dividends (with limited effect so far), or announcing special shareholder benefits. Historically, STRC has reclaimed the $100 mark, such as in October last year, driven by a combination of dividend fulfillment, a rate hike, and a pause in share sales. The core question remains how much cost and effort Strategy is willing to bear to attract the necessary buying pressure to restore the $100 par value.

Fable 5 is about to make a comeback, code exposed? Anthropic CEO kicked out of the White House

Fable 5, a previously restricted AI model from Anthropic, appears poised for a comeback. Evidence from leaked code in the Claude Code v2.1.190 version suggests a shift in its business model from a separate purchase to a potentially limited weekly usage allowance within standard Claude subscriptions. Furthermore, the model has reportedly reappeared in Amazon Bedrock documentation. This potential revival coincides with significant internal changes at Anthropic. According to a report by The Wired, CEO Dario Amodei was reportedly sidelined from negotiations with the Trump administration over Fable 5's export restrictions. Government officials found him difficult to communicate with. Co-founder Tom Brown and policy head Sarah Heck took over discussions, leading to more productive technical talks aimed at addressing White House security concerns about the model being "jailbroken." External pressure is mounting as a bipartisan group of US lawmakers has demanded answers from the Commerce Department by a June 26 deadline regarding the criteria and timeline for potentially reinstating public access to Fable 5. The potential return of Fable 5 comes as competitors OpenAI and Google have reportedly delayed their own major model releases. If Anthropic successfully navigates the government's security review, Fable 5 could gain a significant "safety-certified" advantage in the enterprise market. The countdown to the June 26 deadline is now underway.
