🇩🇪 Germany failed to seize part of the Bitcoin stash tied to the Movie2K piracy site 🤷

🔎 Arkham reports 45,000 BTC ($5B) still sit untouched across 100+ wallets since 2019, likely controlled by the site’s operators.

Earlier in 2024, authorities did manage to seize ~50,000 BTC, selling them for nearly $2.9B.

💰Michael Saylor, co-founder & chairman of Strategy, has officially entered Bloomberg’s Top 500 richest people list — thanks to his massive Bitcoin bet that turned him into one of the wealthiest figures in the crypto space. 🚀

🐳 Dormant ETH giants are waking up:

• An Ethereum Foundation-linked wallet moved 4,000 ETH ($17.2M) after 9 years of silence.
• A whale from 2019 deposited 21,178 ETH ($90.7M) to Bitfinex and shifted another 37,760 ETH (~$161.8M) to fresh wallets.

He originally bought ~59K ETH for $12M — now worth over $240M. Long hold paid off. 🚀

💰 Big moves in crypto treasuries:

▪️ Strategy added 1,955 BTC ($217.4M), now holding 638,460 BTC worth $47.17B at ~$73,880 avg.
▪️ Metaplanet bought 136 BTC, total 20,136 BTC — exactly 1 year since its first purchase.
▪️ 🇸🇻 El Salvador marked Bitcoin Law’s 4th anniversary with a symbolic 21 BTC buy, lifting reserves to 6,313 BTC (~$701M).
▪️ Bitmine added 200K+ ETH, crossing 2M ETH (~$9B) — the largest ETH treasury globally.
▪️ Meanwhile, Forward Industries (FORD) raised $1.65B from Galaxy, Jump & Multicoin to bet on Solana — stock pumped 120% before cooling, while SOL jumped 5%+. 🚀

💵 Stablecoin supply on Ethereum just hit a new all-time high of $165B — more than double since January 2024. 🚀

🥳 Markets are fully pricing in a 100% chance of a Fed rate cut this month

📉 Probabilities:

• 25 bps cut — 88.4%

Crypto investors love it — Bitcoin is trading above $113K 🚀

🇺🇸 The US Congress is reviewing a bill that would require the Treasury to explore creating a “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve” and an official Digital Asset Stockpile

If passed, the US could join nations actively building state-level crypto reserves — a major shift in how governments view Bitcoin. 🚀

Solana trading bot project Aqua has likely pulled the plug, stealing 21,770 SOL (~$4.65M) right after its presale! 🙀

Funds were quickly split and funneled through instant exchanges, while the team shut off Twitter replies. 🚫💬

Even projects like Meteora, Quill Audits, Helius & others had promoted Aqua — making the rug sting even harder. 🪤

🇸🇻 El Salvador just opened a Bitcoin Zone in its National Library to celebrate 4 years of BTC as legal tender

The space offers books on blockchain and finance, plus lectures and exhibitions dedicated to Bitcoin. 📚✨

📉 Crypto markets are cooling off! 🥶

According to CryptoQuant, overall trading activity is dropping, and selling pressure is taking over. 🤔

The shift is clear in Bitcoin futures, where trader sentiment points toward expectations of further price declines. Whales are less dominant, and retail is calling more of the shots now. 🐳➡️👥

RSI on TOTAL3 and OTHERS/ETH suggests altcoins are oversold! ↗️

😋 And don’t forget — next week the Fed rate decision is coming. Could be fireworks for the market! 🎆

🤔 The Fed might slash rates by 50 bps in September- CoinDesk.

🇺🇸 The U.S. Labor Department revised job growth for the year ending March 2025 — down 911k jobs, the biggest cut in history. Turns out the labor market is much weaker than NFP reports showed.

📉 If these numbers came earlier, the Fed would’ve already started cutting. Now markets expect a 0.5% drop, but recession fears linger.

💰 BTC panicked, briefly dipping below $111K, before bouncing back to ~$112.5K.

😱 Santiment says traders are drowning in FUD

Many now expect BTC to sink below $100K, ETH under $3.5K, and alts to retrace. 👀

But markets love to move against the crowd — meaning all this doom talk could actually be bullish. 🐂

When everyone screams “dump incoming,” it’s often the perfect setup for the opposite. 😉

🚀 $MYX token went from $0.10 in July to a new ATH of $18.06 today!

💥 Top of the liquidation charts: $47M wiped out in 24h.
📊 TVL is $30M, but market cap hit $3.5B — looks like the market maker went overboard 👍
👀 Or maybe Consensys is gearing up to back MYX?

💡 Fun fact: 94.5% of supply sits in just 10 wallets. Extreme centralization, extreme volatility!

🤔 CryptoQuant analysts expect the bull market peak in Oct–Nov 2025

🔹 Market is now in a mature growth phase.
🔹 Heavy selling at $70K slowed things, but recent sales from long-term holders at $98K and $117K were easily absorbed by buyers.
🔹 Institutional demand is stretching the cycle, pushing the top later than usual.
🔹 Historically, the peak comes when BTC trades far above the realized price of long-term holders.

⏳ Translation: the top isn’t here yet.

🚀 ConsenSys (Linea) CEO says ETH will do 100x+ and even surpass BTC!

He argues Tom Lee’s $706K target isn’t bullish enough — ETH will power the decentralized economy of the future as the ultimate trust layer. 💎

But while the vision sounds epic, Ethereum’s L2s are tripping:

▪️ Linea went down for an hour yesterday ⌛️
▪️ ScrollDAO paused operations indefinitely
▪️ Starknet stopped producing blocks again, just 8 days after the last outage ⚡️

Big dreams, shaky layers. 😅
