L2 users fear nothing more than the mainnet suddenly becoming outrageously expensive. While checking on-chain data during a night run, all I could think after finishing was: Please don’t get congested.
Last night was my third night run, and my pace was so awful it was painful to look at. But I did come across a liquidation-related tweet at the top of the hill, which got me thinking about oracle latency. The logic is pretty simple: if the price feed is half a beat slow, then during a sharp market move, the liquidation price is like suddenly moving the finish line in a marathon—you think you’re still two kilometers away, only to find the line right under your feet. The liquidated traders curse the data source, the arbitrageurs grin from ear to ear, and everyone else just watches from the sidel
A couple of days ago, I came across a post about someone whose wallet had been drained. I clicked in and took a look at the screenshot—it was just a pretty common fake authorization page, made to look exactly like the real thing. The only thing missing was a big “I’m a phishing site” sign on its face. The comments were full of: I clicked it too, I got robbed too, what do I do? It made my scalp tingle.
Honestly, I used to think this kind of thing was far away from me too, until one night I accidentally clicked a link that looked exactly like the official Discord. The moment I finished entering
🔵 $PONS The short setup is clear, with an entry at 0.4150, TP ladder targets of 0.40→0.33, and an SL at 0.45 to leave sufficient room for volatility. This structured trading plan is worth referencing—“Stay sharp” isn’t said for nothing.

The uptrend line hasn’t broken, and $ETH ’s support level still looks fairly solid, but whether volume can keep up is the key—don’t rush to chase the rally.

Just got back from a night run and took another look at the on-chain data, only to see a bunch of unlock calendars circulating again. Honestly, this anxiety over selling pressure ultimately comes down to not having your position sizing figured out. You can’t hold spot because you’re afraid of a drop, and you get liquidated on futures because you want to take a gamble. Lately, I’ve been reminding myself of one thing: when your position is so large that you can’t sleep comfortably, it’s time to reduce it. Forget about whether there are unlocks—give yourself room to breathe first. If your breathi
Last night while out for a run, my phone kept vibrating. I opened it and saw the project group chatting about an old NFT floor. Although there’s usually nothing special about scrolling through the listings on the floor, I suddenly remembered how hot it was at its peak: even placing an order meant waiting in line for ages, and the trading volume was so high it could make the Gas on the L2 smoke. Now, though, the floor has fallen to the center of the earth, royalties have been changed back and forth, and no one cares anymore. All that’s left are a few old-timers comforting each other. Hard to sa
Bro, what you said makes sense. BTC is falling from the area we marked; there’s a high probability of further declines during the New York session or tomorrow, especially since Tuesday has historically been weak. Wait until the breakdown is confirmed before following—don’t rush to catch a flying knife.
CryptoZeno
$BTC Price has started rejecting from our zone,
I am expecting continuation in the drop in NYO later today or probably tomorrow,
As it's Tuesday tomorrow and historically it has been an underperforming day of the week.
So it's very likely we see some drop tomorrow if not today.

14.87B SHIB tokens have flowed out of exchanges, easing sell pressure. Even though it’s still lurking in a bear market, at least we’re seeing some signals of holders staying put.
CoinNetwork
CoinEx News reported that Shiba Inu (SHIB) recently saw about 14.87 billion tokens move out of exchanges, which may be the first bullish signal in months. Although SHIB is still in a broader downtrend, this notable on-chain development has drawn traders’ attention. Negative net outflows usually mean fewer tokens are available for immediate sale, because more tokens are withdrawn from exchanges than are deposited. While a single day of outflows doesn’t always indicate a trend reversal, it typically suggests improved investor sentiment, with a tendency to hold rather than sell. Over the past 12 months, SHIB has lost nearly 69%, and it is down more than 40% year to date.
SHIB-2.82%
The Middle East powder keg has exploded again, and Jordan’s interception this round has something to it.

Gasoline price cuts drag down CPI, but core inflation stays stuck at 2.9%. The Fed figures it still has to “play dead,” so don’t rush the market into calling for rate cuts.
CoinNetwork
Crypto news from CoinDesk: Analysts expect the US June Consumer Price Index (CPI) to fall, mainly due to a drop in gasoline prices, but the Federal Reserve is unlikely to ease policy. Core CPI is still around 2.9%, while services inflation has accelerated to 3.4%. Although CPI data earlier this year has improved, persistently elevated core inflation keeps the Fed facing challenges in responding to inflation. June CPI is expected to drop 0.2%, while the annual inflation rate is expected to fall from 4.2% in May to 3.8%. At the same time, oil prices have risen to $75 per barrel amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, further affecting inflation expectations.

It’s interesting how gold falls along with it— the oil-gold seesaw has kicked back in. If major importing countries sell gold to buy oil, volatility afterward may be amplified further.
CoinNetwork
Crypto news flash from CoinJie.com: Oil prices rose nearly 10% after Iran announced a full blockade. WTI crude oil rose $6.87 to $78.27, a 9.6% increase. Analysts say the U.S. will ensure oil flows through escort fleets while charging a 20% toll. The market has expressed doubts about the likelihood of the plan succeeding, and the risk of Iran attacking neighboring countries’ oil and gas infrastructure is also increasing. As oil prices climbed, gold fell by $123; the market expects that major oil-importing countries may need to sell reserves to maintain currency strength or buy oil.

CZ burned 70% of the chips this round, then surged the price by 168% directly—those black hole addresses are the real market makers, aren’t they?
CoinNetwork
CoinJie.com news: According to on-chain analysts monitoring, a wallet address marked as related to CZ donations will today transfer 700 million CZ tokens and 400 million TCC tokens to a black hole address. This burn accounts for approximately 70% and 40% of CZ and TCC chips, respectively. As a result, the CZ token’s 24-hour increase is about 168%, while the TCC token’s 24-hour increase is about 36%.
Coinbase’s top legal executive suddenly exits — will the “clear regulation” bill be going cold? With a 46% probability, it’s making you feel uneasy
CoinNetwork
Crypto news site BiJieJie reports that Coinbase’s legal chief Paul Grewal has suddenly announced his resignation. He will move into an advisory role at the end of July, and his successor will be Molly Abraham. During his tenure, Grewal successfully led Coinbase through its public listing and won a legal battle with the SEC. His resignation has sent shockwaves through the crypto community, and some believe it could mean dim prospects for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. The bill is intended to delineate regulatory authority between the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). It has recently passed the Senate Banking Committee, but progress is currently slow. According to Polymarket data, the probability that the bill will pass this year has fallen to 46%.

This guy can still operate $290K from prison? Didn't the guards confiscate his phone?

According to Bloomberg, citing the U.S. Department of Justice, Rossen Iossifov, the founder of Bulgarian cryptocurrency exchange RG Coins, was indicted again while serving his sentence. He is accused of destroying or transferring assets to evade forfeiture and of participating in a money laundering scheme. Prosecutors allege that he unlawfully transferred approximately $290,000 in crypto assets that had been legally seized and forfeited by the United States. Iossifov was previously convicted in 2021 for helping launder millions of dollars in fraud proceeds and was sentenced to more than nine years in prison; these new charges carry a maximum penalty of 25 years.
The finance minister personally came to the scene to support it, and the AI agent went straight into the shopping cart for testing—this rollout speed is much faster than that more regulation-friendly neighbor.

CryptoNews: On Monday, the South Korean Ministry of Finance said the government will advance regulatory reforms, accelerate the application of artificial intelligence in the service sector, and further enhance the competitiveness of the service industry. The service sector accounts for 60% of South Korea’s GDP, and its growth is crucial to the overall economy. Finance Minister Choi Kyu-rium said that the service industry is undergoing profound AI-driven changes, with accelerated integration with the manufacturing sector, driving innovation in public services, and deeply changing everyday life. To help South Korean companies lead the global market, the government will introduce measures as soon as possible to allow AI agents to run tests throughout the entire shopping process. In addition, the South Korean government will also provide policy support for new mobility services such as urban air mobility and AI autonomous driving, and will introduce AI technology in public services including tax payment and administrative services.
In the 1.6 billion trading volume, 40.43 million is hidden as net outflow. BlackRock ETF’s pool is too deep—are short-term funds battling in a game, or are long-term holders rebalancing? It’s worth keeping a close watch on next week’s data.

When the funding rate goes absolutely insane, I actually get a little itchy and want to trade against it. But honestly, the last time I did that I got buried, so now when I see those numbers I freeze for three seconds first.

Jason’s take this time is no-nonsense and down-to-earth: periodic sell pressure layered on top of macro liquidity contraction means the bear-market bottom still needs to wait for an FTX-level event of despair.

Conversation with NDV founder Jason: MicroStrategy has gone a bit overboard; I’ll only consider bottom-fishing after a real panic sell-off.
Author | Wu Talks Blockchain
In this episode of the Wu Talks Podcast, we invite NDV founder Jason Huang to discuss recent Bitcoin declines, the MicroStrategy coin-selling incident, macro market risks, and opportunities in the crypto industry. Jason believes that the first half of this round of crypto downturn was mainly driven by inertial sell pressure from Bitcoin’s four-year cycle, and that in the recent period, factors such as a pullback in the U.S. stock market, liquidity contraction, and MicroStrategy debt pressure have begun to compound the move. He judges that the market has not truly bottomed out yet; bear-market bottoms often require “signature” events on a par with a collapse-level incident such as FTX, which trigger widespread despair and a situation where no one is discussing it.
On investment strategy, Jason says that his second-phase fund has generated returns of about twenty-plus percentage points this year. In addition to crypto assets, he also takes part in trading commodities such as oil, gold, and silver. He remains cautious about AI stocks, saying that although he is a heavy AI user, he lacks a trading edge; meanwhile, he is also concerned about the U.S. stock market, semiconductors, and
Traditional finance has finally started copying homework. The lesson on perpetual contracts was a bit late to catch up on, but it's better than not catching up at all.
WuSaidBlockchainW
ETF Store President Nate Geraci wrote that Cboe is considering converting its BTC and ETH futures contracts into perpetual futures. He stated that traditional financial giants are being forced to continuously respond to product innovations in the crypto-native markets, and this may just be the beginning. Perpetual futures, which were originally popular mainly on crypto exchanges, are now gradually entering regulated traditional trading environments.
