The inflow into cryptocurrency investment products from July 6 to July 12 surged from $441 million to $1.44 billion. ๐ฐ
๐ This figure became the fifth-largest in history, according to CoinShares.
๐ This happened due to the attractive low price caused by the sale of Bitcoins by the German authorities and a shift in sentiment due to the lower-than-expected Consumer Price Index in the USA, experts believe.

๐ Expert Tracks Stolen DMM Bitcoin Assets
Since the beginning of July, over $35 million, stolen in the May hack of the cryptocurrency exchange DMM Bitcoin, has been laundered through the Cambodian online marketplace Huione Guarantee. This was highlighted by on-chain researcher ZachXBT.
How the hackers operated:
โช๏ธThey routed the stolen bitcoins through mixers.
โช๏ธExchanged them for Ethereum and Avalanche via the cross-chain liquidity protocol THORChain.
โช๏ธConverted the assets to USDT, then to Tron.
โช๏ธFinally, the assets ended up on Huione Guarantee.
๐ซ One transaction amounting to $29.6 million was blocked on July 12 when the stablecoin issuer Tether blacklisted one of the hacker's Tron wallets.
๐ก ZachXBT suspects that the Lazarus Group is behind this incident due to the similarity in money laundering methods and off-chain indicators.
๐ He also shared 538 wallets involved in the exchange hack.

Still Afraid of a Massive BTC Sell-Off from Mt. Gox?
๐ Let's compare the realized market capitalization of Mt. Gox's bitcoins with the total realized capitalization of BTC.
๐ฐ Realized Market Capitalization is the value of all coins at their last sale price. This metric helps measure market liquidity quality.
๐น Mt. Gox Realized Market Cap: This represents the value of bitcoins held by Mt. Gox, calculated based on the last transaction prices before the infamous hack and bankruptcy.
๐น Total BTC Realized Market Cap: This is the sum of the realized values of all bitcoins in existence, reflecting their market history and the liquidity of the overall BTC market.
Why It Matters? ๐ง
๐ Market Impact: The potential sale of Mt. Gox's BTC can influence market prices, but the impact depends on its proportion to the total market.
๐ง Liquidity Insight: Understanding the realized cap of Mt. Gox's holdings versus the entire BTC market provides insight into the possible effects on liquidity and market stability.
