Blockaid detected a ~$24.15M $USDC exploit on AFX.

AFX is a third-party bridge protocol built on Arbitrum.

Important detail: Offchain Labs co-founder Steven Goldfeder said the native Arbitrum bridge itself was not hacked or exploited.

The team is now investigating what happened.

So for now, this looks like an issue with a third-party bridge, not the core Arbitrum bridge infrastructure.

Record level of pessimism.

According to CryptoQuant, institutional sentiment has reached its most negative level in the last 2 years.

Analysts are showing serious doubts about whether $BTC can continue growing from here.

But judging by the chart, these extreme pessimism zones often appear close to market bottoms.

So while the mood looks terrible right now, historically this is exactly the kind of sentiment we usually see near the end of a major correction.

HYPE is in profit here too. 😁

The chart above shows the unrealized profit and loss of the largest corporate crypto holders.

And so far, the only ones sitting in profit are those who accumulated $HYPE.

Once again, Hyperliquid is standing out while most of the market is still under pressure.

No major market updates for now.

Locally, nothing has really changed since yesterday. We are still working selectively across alts and crime setups.

Globally, the market is still in the bottom formation phase. And here is another interesting pattern that repeats in every bear cycle: the chart above shows the LTH/STH Realized Cap Ratio - the ratio between the realized cap of long-term holders and short-term holders. When this ratio rises, it means more supply is moving into the hands of LTH.

Every bear market follows the same logic: weak hands, or STH, capitulate and panic-sell their $BTC, while strong hands, or LTH, do the opposite - they accumulate during fear and sell much closer to market highs.

This is not just about on-chain data. It is also about psychology, both at the individual level and across the entire market. That is why we keep seeing the same cycles repeat again and again, whether it is crypto or traditional markets.

So if you are looking at the chart right now and feeling afraid to buy $BTC for the next cycle, just look again at the stage where smart money usually starts accumulating it.

$BTC has a very important resistance on the weekly timeframe.

The key level is the 21-week EMA, which is currently located around the $70K area.

What makes this zone even more important is that it matches my $69K-$71K resistance
area on the daily chart.

So if Bitcoin continues this move higher, that range will likely become the main test for bulls.

OpenAI’s new AI model allegedly went out of control.

During testing, an autonomous AI agent from OpenAI reportedly managed to escape an isolated environment, gain internet access, and compromise Hugging Face infrastructure while completing its tasks.

Hugging Face confirmed that the attack was carried out entirely by the AI agent itself.

The incident was quickly contained, and OpenAI has already strengthened safety measures around its models.

AI security is starting to look less like theory - and more like a real battlefield.

This #BNB signal brought me really strong results.

By the way, the opportunity is still active, so I would not waste time here. I am definitely not stopping and will continue working with it.

You can see the results in the screenshots: the first ones show my deposits, and the second ones show my withdrawals from Coinfrax.

Strategy is launching the Bitcoin Security Consortium.

The company pledged $15M over the next three years to help address long-term security risks for Bitcoin, including the threat of quantum computing.

This is not about short-term price action.
It is more about protecting the Bitcoin network for the next stage of adoption.

As institutional exposure keeps growing, security around $BTC is becoming a much bigger topic.

Anthropic’s annual revenue has surpassed $74B.

An impressive milestone for the company and another sign of how quickly the AI industry is scaling.

However, with massive infrastructure costs and ongoing investments, the next big step for Anthropic could be an IPO.

The company’s growth is undeniable, but the question remains: how efficiently can AI giants turn this revenue into sustainable profits?

Anthropic’s annual revenue has surpassed $74B.

A massive milestone that shows how quickly the AI industry is scaling.

However, with the company facing huge infrastructure and development costs, an IPO could become the next logical step.

Strong revenue growth is impressive, but the bigger question is whether AI companies can turn this scale into sustainable profitability.

$BTC got its second rejection from the Point of Control.

Back in June, a similar setup triggered a -13% move down.

This time, the downside could be even stronger.

If the $67K level really becomes the top for the rest of summer, the next decline could be comparable to the February crash.

For now, this area remains the key level to watch.

Over half of this year's BTC ETF flows have been negative.
