According to a post by the Newton Foundation (@NewtonFndn), the attacker involved in the recent Binance breach appears to have made an operational error, directly transferring approximately 8 million NEWT tokens, along with 17 other tokens (ANIME, ANKR, ARPA, BARD, CELR, DENT, DOLO, FTT, GLM, HIGH, HOT, KNC, LQTY, RARE, RESOLV, SIGN, WOO) to the NEWT token contract address (0xd0ec028a3d21533fdd200838f39c85b03679285d). Valued at current prices, the total amounts to approximately $3.5 million. The foundation stated that the NEWT token contract itself was not compromised. Featuring an immutable design with no owner or administrator, all management rights were relinquished on-chain in 2025, and upgrade functionality has been permanently disabled. As a result, no one, including the foundation, can retrieve these tokens.
trader Killa stated in a post that the FTX collapse once marked a market bottom, and the recent Binance hack incident may have a similar effect. He believes the best way to recoup losses is to drive prices up significantly rather than push them further down, noting that Binance holds billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin and has the financial capacity to launch billion-dollar-scale long positions, and that such operations may not be directly observable by retail investors.Killa also speculated that Binance may have generated approximately $1 billion in revenue through liquidations, slippage, and trading fees. Although the market may need some time to digest the short-term impact of this incident, he remains bullish on the medium- to long-term outlook for the crypto market.
Odaily reports: Bitcoin News posted on X platform that Bloomberg ETF analyst @JSeyff disclosed that although BlackRock executives had begun preparations to launch a Bitcoin ETF, Larry Fink had previously been skeptical about Bitcoin. Due to internal board discussions and events such as the FTX collapse, the project is said to have nearly been halted multiple times; currently, BlackRock operates the world's largest spot Bitcoin ETF.
According to K33 Research, the US government transferred approximately 17,733 BTC to Coinbase Prime this week, including 12,267 BTC linked to the Bitfinex hack incident. Following the transfer, the government’s tagged holdings decreased from 324,527 BTC to 306,795 BTC. If untagged suspected government wallets are included, the total BTC transferred to Coinbase Prime reaches approximately 21,500. Analysts believe this transfer is highly likely a custody operation rather than a liquidation—Coinbase Prime has served as the custodian for the US Marshals Service since 2024. Coins associated with the Bitfinex case remain in the claims process, with the Department of Justice requiring restitution to victims in BTC; the no-sale order for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve also only applies to fully confiscated assets. Additionally, roughly 1,200 BTC originating from FTX and HashFlare were transferred simultaneously and may be disbursed to victims in cash through compensation channels. Notably, the completion of the transfer of approximately 15,000 Bitfinex-claim-related BTC within two days suggests that a distribution plan or relevant rulings may be advancing.
According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the U.S. government has transferred an additional 94.15 million USDT from seized FTX/Alameda funds to Coinbase Prime. The cumulative transfer amount over the past few hours has reached approximately $566 million.
Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Arkham reports that US government-linked wallets transferred approximately 4,695 BTC, along with WBTC and USDT, through a series of transactions today, involving total assets worth approximately $470 million. On-chain analyst @TimechainIndex independently flagged the same batch of approximately 4,695 BTC, distributed across 4 transactions. The assets are related to seizures tied to the Bitfinex hack and FTX/Alameda, with some assets already sent to Coinbase Prime deposit addresses. This transfer follows the US government's additional transfer to Coinbase Prime yesterday.
Odaily reports: Binance founder CZ stated in a recent interview that he was assigned to the low-security Lompoc II prison in California, where FTX founder SBF was later also detained.Before entering prison, CZ assembled an advisory team to learn the rules of the prison cell block, and communicated with other inmates through one of his advisors to adapt to prison life.In August 2024, CZ left Lompoc prison and was transferred to a halfway house, spending his final two weeks at a local jail due to immigration status issues; within 26 minutes of his release, his private jet took off.
According to monitoring by on-chain analyst Yu Jin, the FTX / Alameda Research asset liquidation team transferred 27,372 ETH worth $75.32 million to Wintermute through 6 wallets 3 hours ago, suspected to have entrusted Wintermute with selling. The relevant address is 0xCe84...f228.
According to monitoring by Onchain Lens, Alameda Research/FTX-related addresses have unstaked and transferred 202,710 SOL worth approximately $20.62 million, with the corresponding tokens transferred to their bankruptcy asset staking wallet.
According to Business Insider, the federal government previously seized Anthropic shares held by FTX fraud case co-conspirators Caroline Ellison and Nishad Singh (valued at $10 million and $40 million, respectively) and sold them in 2025 to existing Anthropic investors. As Anthropic's valuation surged to $96.5 billion, the estimated value of these shares at the time of sale ranged from $250 million to $1.1 billion. However, there has been no record of the proceeds being transferred to the FTX bankruptcy liquidation account, leaving it unclear whether the funds will be used to compensate millions of FTX victims.
According to monitoring by on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain (@lookonchain), a US government-linked wallet holding seized FTX/Alameda funds transferred out 24.41 BTC approximately five hours ago, valued at roughly $1.92 million at the time.
Odaily News Crypto analyst Ali posted on social platform X, stating that the end phases of Bitcoin’s two historical bear markets both exhibited a key characteristic—a sudden, powerful weekly reversal pattern. These “massive bullish candles” often catch the majority of market participants off guard and may serve as a signal for the start of a new bull market. Such moves are typically driven by “short squeezes.” As Bitcoin’s price rises, bearish traders continue to add short positions, but as the rally accelerates, these shorts are forced to cover, further fueling the upward momentum.Historical data shows that in 2019, near the end of Bitcoin’s bear market, a single week saw a 31.98% surge, followed by the onset of a new upward cycle. In January 2023, amid extremely pessimistic market sentiment following the FTX collapse, Bitcoin posted a 24.90% weekly gain, reversing prior bearish expectations.A similar pattern may now be unfolding in the current market. Although many investors, based on the “four-year cycle theory,” anticipated a market bottom in October, Bitcoin has recently rallied from $62,700 to $79,500, a one-week gain of 26.81%. If historical patterns hold, this robust weekly reversal could indicate that Bitcoin (BTC) has already entered the early stages of a new upward cycle.
According to Arkham monitoring, Alameda Research-associated addresses transferred a total of $8.25 million worth of SOL to BitGo custody wallets via 24 transactions, speculated to be for distribution to FTX creditors. Arkham data shows that Alameda currently still holds SOL worth over $200 million.
Odaily News According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the Alameda Research/FTX bankruptcy wallet transferred 201,780 SOL (approximately $15.2 million) to multiple BitGo custody wallets 10 hours after unstaking 201,740 SOL. The related funds are being redirected for over-the-counter sales. Meanwhile, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried remains incarcerated, serving a 25-year prison sentence.
as the suspected hacking incident involving Coldcard wallets continues to unfold, Bitcoin small-value transfers have surged significantly, reaching their highest level since the FTX exchange collapse, reigniting market discussions on Bitcoin self-custody security.Julio Moreno, Head of Research at CryptoQuant, disclosed data on X platform showing that the number of on-chain Bitcoin transfers below 1 BTC has risen to its highest level since November 2022, with approximately 39,600 BTC transferred in a single day—only about 300 BTC below the record of 39,900 BTC set on November 16, 2022, just days after FTX filed for bankruptcy. He believes that users proactively taking action to address risks is a positive signal. Additionally, Eric Balchunas, Senior ETF Analyst at Bloomberg, noted that Bitcoin ETFs, backed by a mature regulatory framework and convenience, may offer some users a safer investment approach.However, industry insiders point out that the Coldcard incident more likely reflects issues with a single wallet provider or specific security processes, rather than indicating a failure of the entire Bitcoin self-custody system. This event once again highlights the importance of security awareness, risk diversification, and wallet usage habits in personal asset management.
Analyst Murphy stated that Bitcoin's current chip concentration is similar to that before the 2022 FTX collapse, and a highly concentrated chip structure could amplify price volatility. Jiang Zhuoer believes that if the CLARITY Act fails to pass before Congress adjourns, Bitcoin may witness the final drop of the bear market.
Currently, the supply of Bitcoin held by long-term holders (LTH) at a loss has exceeded the level during the FTX collapse and is approaching the 2018 bear market phase. The current Bitcoin Realized Price is approximately $50,000. Historically, every cycle has retested the Long-Term Holder Realized Price, so there remains a possibility of retesting this level in the future.
OdailyOdaily Planet Daily News The U.S. Senate has passed a resolution opposing an administrative pardon for former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. The non-binding measure states that Bankman-Fried should not receive an administrative pardon and reaffirms the Senate's commitment to the rule of law and the integrity of the U.S. financial system. The resolution was introduced by Senator Ruben Gallego on June 17, with Senator Cynthia Lummis as a co-sponsor, opposing any federal pardon for Bankman-Fried, including a presidential pardon or commutation of sentence. A simple Senate resolution does not require approval from the House of Representatives or the President and carries no legal force. Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in federal prison in March 2024 on charges of fraud and conspiracy related to the collapse of FTX in 2022. Speculation intensified after he applied for a pardon from Donald Trump in June 2026, with Department of Justice records showing the request is pending. Polymarket traders currently place the probability of Donald Trump pardoning Bankman-Fried before July 31 at less than 1%. The trading volume for this market exceeds $734,000.
According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the U.S. government address (0x9ac...cb0) has emptied another wallet holding crypto assets seized from Alameda Research and FTX, transferring 4,820 ETH to Coinbase Prime, valued at $9.28 million; and transferring 54.89 billion SHIB, 631,740 POWR, and 1.06 million AERGO to three new wallets, valued at $235,600, $27,900, and $22,100 respectively. The wallet currently holds assets worth $0.
Ansem posted on X, stating that his past judgments regarding celebrity participation in crypto projects were overly idealistic. He had assumed they would not "rug" millions of supporters, but this assumption has been proven wrong by reality, and he stated he will not make the same judgment error in the future.However, Ansem emphasized that he is not a celebrity himself and has no intention of exiting a project improperly. He believes that Meme and narrative-based tokens may still play a "net positive" role in the crypto market, including attracting new users into the industry, providing speculative liquidity for the market, and reactivating market sentiment during bear market bottoms.Using Dogecoin and Bonk as examples, he stated that such assets have brought large-scale user adoption and wealth effects in different cycles. Dogecoin's market cap once reached $11 billion, while Bonk helped revive sentiment within the Solana ecosystem during the低迷 period following the FTX collapse.Ansem also mentioned that he entered the crypto industry in 2017, quit his job as a software engineer in 2021, and is currently co-founding the trading application BullpenFi while hosting the podcast project MarketBubble. He noted that he has participated in discussions on multiple Meme coins in the past, but often encountered anonymous accounts using liquidity structures to front-run and then "dump" on the opposite side, making him a tool for attention. He emphasized that his current project is the first time he is participating with "control over the majority of the token supply" and stated that he will attempt to find a balance between market attention and industry building.
