According to options expiry data released by [email protected] (@BTC__options), a total of 19,000 BTC options expired this week, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.89, Max Pain at $64,500, and a notional value of $1.2 billion; 125,000 ETH options expired, with a Put Call Ratio of 1.25, Max Pain at $1,875, and a notional value of $230 million. In terms of market conditions, BTC briefly broke through 66K this week but failed to hold. The 65K to 80K range is a high-volume trading zone from the early year's rally, indicating significant upside pressure. Overall IV has retreated to the 35% level, leaving fewer trading opportunities. Notably, the ETH put option ratio has exceeded 1 for 6 consecutive weeks, the longest duration on record, indicating sustained high bearish sentiment in the market. However, some traders are also taking the opportunity to sell Puts to buy the dip. Cryptocurrencies have experienced an 8-month bear market. From a cyclical perspective, the second half of the year may see a certain rebound.
this morning, two addresses suspected to be associated with Paradigm unstaked 2.92 million HYPE (approximately $171 million).Former Ethereum core developer and angel investor Eric Conner commented on this, saying: "Everyone assumes this is a sell-off, but it's more likely that this is for ETF seeding. Custodians require tokens to be liquid, and staked HYPE cannot be used. Back in April, they also unstaked $88 million worth of tokens, and on the same day, Grayscale updated its S-1 filing and switched its custodian to Anchorage."
Odaily News Bitwise released its "Q3 2026 Staking Report," showing that 40.2 million ETH has now been staked, accounting for 33% of the total ETH supply, a new all-time high. The increase in staking this year has primarily come from institutions, including staking ETFs, corporate treasuries, and other large holders. The report also indicates that the staking rates for the networks covered by Bitwise remain high, with Solana at 68%, Near at 45%, Hyperliquid at 44%, and Avalanche at 41%.Additionally, Ethereum’s throughput increased by 73% year-over-year, while Avalanche’s transaction volume reached four times that of the same period last year. Recently, Coinbase and Circle also staked 500,000 HYPE each on Hyperliquid, signaling that institutional staking is expanding to more emerging PoS networks.

According to CertiK Alert monitoring, a security incident occurred on VerusCoin's Ethereum cross-chain bridge, with approximately $7.53 million in assets transferred out. Preliminary analysis indicates that this issue may be related to the cross-chain bridge failing to sufficiently verify whether the Verus chain-side input supports the paid amount, similar to an incident that occurred in May this year.

The attacker swapped them for 5409 WBNB (approximately $3.11 million) and bridged to Ethereum, and is currently transferring the funds to Zcash via NEAR Intents.

According to The Block, Bitcoin rose above $65,800 on July 22, hitting a new high in over a month, with a monthly gain of approximately 2%. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows for the sixth consecutive day, with single-day net inflows of $203 million on Tuesday. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded net inflows of $37.5 million on the same day, marking three consecutive days of positive inflows. Analysts have identified the next key resistance level near $68,000 — this price level represents the convergence zone of the short-term holder cost basis and the Q2 opening price, where a large number of trapped buyers will break even, and the first touch is expected to trigger massive selling pressure.
According to Wintermute OTC trader @Jjay_dm, June CPI fell 0.4% month-over-month, the largest single-month drop since April 2020, overall inflation decreased from 4.2% to 3.5%, the market immediately priced in a hold for the July FOMC, and the probability of a rate hike in September also dropped from over 75% to 63%.

According to Odaily, blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps has disclosed that a mysterious whale address cluster within the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem has held approximately 103 trillion SHIB since 2020. The entity initially spent just 38 ETH (roughly $10,000 at the time) to build the position, which once peaked at an unrealized valuation exceeding $50 billion, marking one of the most astonishing investment cases in crypto market history.Bubblemaps' tracking reveals that the whale initially purchased 103 trillion SHIB through the wallet address 0x1406, accounting for about 10% of the circulating supply at the time. As the SHIB price surged, the position's value once reached approximately $5 billion. Currently, the address cluster's holdings are still valued at over $2.5 billion, representing a cumulative return of more than 21,000 times.To reduce exposure risk, the whale split the assets across 14 addresses in November 2021. In January 2023, Bubblemaps first disclosed this SHIB whale cluster, which then controlled about 10% of the SHIB supply, valued at over $1 billion, sparking community discussions about high concentration of holdings by a single entity.Subsequently, the address cluster underwent continuous address migration and splitting. In September 2023, Bubblemaps found that its holdings had spread from a few prominent wallets to many new addresses, a typical tactic to reduce on-chain visibility. Using its Magic Nodes tool, Bubblemaps was still able to identify the connections between these wallets.During the SHIB price surge in early 2024, the whale's position value exceeded $2 billion again, with the number of wallets expanding to over 170 addresses. As of now, the cluster still controls approximately 8.51% of the SHIB circulating supply, a decrease from the initial 10% ratio. However, Bubblemaps notes that this is primarily due to normal on-chain transfers, with no signs of large-scale selling detected.Bubblemaps points out that this case highlights the significant value of on-chain transparency tools: an entity can conceal massive holdings by splitting wallets, but all fund transfers leave public on-chain records. This SHIB whale case has also become a typical example for observing "whale behavior, holding concentration, and on-chain tracking" within the crypto market.
