📊 The week that was — and the stories that shaped the market

Your vote: 37% said Bitcoin’s comeback was *the* headline. Here’s how it all unfolded 👇

🟠 Bitcoin reclaimed $64K as ETF inflows returned with force — $221.7M poured into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs in a single day, breaking a 10-day losing streak totaling $2.73B. An additional $265.7M flowed in the next day.

⛔️ The “never sell” era is over. Strategy sold 3,588 BTC for $216M — its largest sale in six years — to fund dividends on preferred stock, kicking off a new program authorized to sell up to $1.25B worth of Bitcoin. A company built on holding is now letting go.

💧 XRP surged to $1.18, overtaking USDC to claim the #5 spot by market cap (~$73B). While retail remains underwater at historic levels, whales are quietly accumulating.

💥 BONK DAO was drained of ~$20M via a malicious governance proposal. A stark reminder: governance isn't safe by default — votes are only as secure as the voters.

🤖 The AI rally lifted Wall Street. Semiconductors surged, and Bank of America noted a seismic shift in capital flows — declining at hyperscalers, surging into chipmakers. A new cycle may be underway.

🛢 Middle East tensions rattled oil and risk markets — a wildcard no one can fully price in yet.

⚖️ The CLARITY Act missed its July 4 signing deadline. The Senate now targets August 7 for final text. Regulatory progress? Delayed — but not dead.

🇪🇺 Meanwhile, in Europe: Ripple secured full MiCA licensing. A major step toward regulated crypto operations in the EU.
