4100 out of the 10,000 largest addresses that received a distribution from ZKsync have sold all their ZK tokens, according to data from Nansen.
👀 Another 29.2% have sold only part of their tokens, while slightly more than 30% of wallets are still holding their assets.
In total, the large airdrop participants have dumped 491 million ZK, which at the time is equivalent to ~$110.1 million. 🧐
However, Nansen's data covers only 1.4% of the 690,951 eligible wallets, so there is no precise information on how smaller recipients are behaving. 🤷

ConsenSys, the developer of Ethereum, announced that the SEC has notified them of the termination of the investigation into Ethereum 2.0. The regulator will no longer claim that the sale of ETH constitutes a securities transaction. 🥳
📂 This decision followed a letter sent by ConsenSys on June 7, in which they requested the SEC to confirm that the May approvals of the ETH ETF, which were based on ETH being classified as a commodity, would lead to the closure of the investigation into Ethereum 2.0. 🔎
🥋 The developers also stated that the struggle is ongoing, as they are now seeking a declaration from the SEC that the offering of the MetaMask Swaps and Staking user interface software does not violate securities laws also.

Is altcoin season starting? 👀
📈 The MVRV indicator for ETH is increasing faster than BTC's MVRV, indicating that the ETH market is heating up relative to the network's fundamental indicators.
Considering the current ETF situation, this might just be the season for ETH. However, historically, when ETH rises, other altcoins usually follow suit. 🚀

A conflict has erupted among CertiK, Kraken, and the crypto community due to a discovered exploit
🔍 CertiK was identified as the entity that reported the bug. They claimed to have found critical vulnerabilities in Kraken's systems, potentially leading to losses of hundreds of millions of dollars. CertiK also alleged that Kraken's security team threatened their employees, demanding an "inappropriate" payment within "unreasonable" deadlines.
Kraken countered, saying they requested a full report and the return of the funds, accusing CertiK of unethical hacking and extortion for not complying.
The crypto community on X questioned CertiK's actions:
▪️Why did CertiK withdraw so much money if the bug could be proven with smaller amounts?
▪️ Why did CertiK transfer all funds to Tornado Cash?
▪️ Analysts found contradictions in CertiK reports.
▪️ Similar anomalies were noticed on other exchanges.
Users began to doubt CertiK competence and suspect its employees of malicious actions against various projects🧐

The volume of money transfers on TON already makes up 10% of the funds transferred on the Bitcoin network!
💵 Transfers through The Open Network (TON) range from $5.0 to $10.0 billion. For comparison, the average daily transfer volume for Bitcoin is around $50.0 billion. This shows that TON has already achieved 10% of Bitcoin’s capacity, which is impressive for a four-year-old coin.
📈 Another sign of TON’s exponential growth is the number of on-chain token holders. Currently, there are 32 million holders, up from 2.9 million a year ago. That’s a tenfold increase in just one year! 💪

Another user lost $84,400 today, by copying a scam address from their transaction history
👀 This tactic is very common among scammers - they create a wallet address with a beginning and end similar to the victim's wallet, which holds a large sum of money, and send a small transaction there, hoping the wallet owner won't check the entire address but only the beginning and end. Unfortunately, this tactic often works successfully. 😕
