According to Odaily, CryptoQuant reports that the volume of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins flowing into exchanges has recently increased significantly. Historically, this pattern often signals that the crypto market is about to enter a phase of higher volatility.Julio Moreno, Head of Research at CryptoQuant, pointed out that on June 30, the number of Bitcoin flowing into exchanges approached 49,000 BTC, an extremely rare level. This year, there have only been four other instances of single-day inflow peaks nearing 50,000 BTC, and these peaks have typically been followed by a notable amplification in price volatility and clear directional moves.The report suggests that, given the current scale of inflows, the market is absorbing a large amount of Bitcoin being transferred to exchanges. Since transferring to exchanges usually implies potential selling pressure, position adjustments, or increased demand for derivatives margin, this could trigger more drastic price fluctuations.CryptoQuant also notes that the volume of Ethereum and altcoins flowing into exchanges is rising, indicating that the pressure is not limited to Bitcoin but is spreading across the broader crypto asset market. Overall, a surge in exchange inflows may signal that a more significant change in short-term market direction is imminent.
CryptoQuant analyst IT Tech stated that data shows the altcoin market, excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum, continues to be under pressure. The cumulative buy-sell volume difference for altcoins in June has touched an extreme low not seen in nearly five years and is currently probing further lower, reflecting that the spot market remains dominated by continuous net selling. Since retreating from the highs in early 2025, selling pressure has not eased significantly, and the market has not yet shown clear signs of stabilization.
According to on-chain analyst Maartunn (@JA_Maartun) based on CryptoQuant data monitoring, since June 29 (Monday), a total of 113,483.30 BTC (approximately $6.97 billion) have been transferred on-chain. All transferred coins have a coin age exceeding 3 months, of which 22,921.26 BTC (approximately $1.41 billion) came from long-term addresses holding for over 2 years.
Bitcoin rebounded above $61,000 on Thursday, recovering from 21-month lows hit earlier this week, showing signs of stabilization following a period of high volatility. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of approximately $296 million on July 1, extending the trend of capital exodus. June alone saw outflows of about $4.5 billion, marking one of the worst months on record. Among them, the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF led with a single-day net inflow of $36.3 million.On-chain data indicates that long-term holders have re-entered an accumulation phase after an extended period of distribution, with buying pressure increasing from addresses holding 100–1000 BTC. Currently, approximately 10.83 million BTC are in a state of unrealized loss, surpassing the 9.22 million BTC that are in profit. Glassnode analyst Chris Beamish noted that the Coinbase order book shows increased buying depth, and market makers' Gamma positioning is stabilizing, suggesting structural support is forming. However, the derivatives market remains cautious. The options market Put/Call ratio has risen to a one-year high, with implied volatility increasing, reflecting heightened demand for hedging. Meanwhile, long leverage exposure on Hyperliquid has climbed to a cyclical high, indicating diverging market sentiment.On the price structure front, Bitcoin briefly broke below $58,000 before repeatedly testing support. It currently remains below the critical Gamma Flip zone of around $68,000. The realized price of approximately $53,000 is viewed as a key structural support level. On the macroeconomic front, US non-farm payroll data came in below expectations, pushing back expectations for the timing of interest rate cuts. The broader crypto market remains in a phase of capital rotation and structural competition. (The Block)

according to sources familiar with the matter, U.S. regulators are investigating allegations brought by Susquehanna International Group. The allegations claim that an unknown insider trader profited $100 million through options bets ahead of the recent Chinese regulatory crackdown on cross-border brokerages Futu and Tiger Brokers. Susquehanna made these allegations public in a lawsuit filed in the Manhattan federal court on June 29.The sources indicated that the U.S. SEC is reviewing the trades described in the market maker's complaint. In its lawsuit, Susquehanna claims it lost over $70 million as the counterparty to much of the alleged insider trading. The lawsuit states that traders purchased options traded on U.S. exchanges of Chinese securities firms, which subsequently became the target of a regulatory crackdown on May 22. The scope and stage of the SEC investigation are currently unclear. A U.S. judge on June 29 granted Susquehanna's request to freeze the relevant accounts. The Chinese government stated that Futu and Tiger Brokers were providing unlicensed trading services to mainland residents. The stock prices of both companies fell following the announcement on May 22. Futu was fined 1.85 billion yuan in regulatory penalties, and founder Leaf Li saw his wealth decrease by $1.7 billion in a single day. (Straits Times)
According to CryptoBriefing, Ark Invest, led by Cathie Wood, purchased approximately $18 million worth of CRCL stock again on July 1, 2026, as Circle Internet Group (CRCL) shares fell to $61.95 (down 1.09% for the day). This marks a continuation of Ark's consistent "buying the dip" strategy since Circle's IPO in June 2025—previously investing $16.34 million in a single transaction when the stock price plummeted 20% in a single day, and adding $5.5 million following the Q1 2026 earnings report. CRCL holdings are currently distributed across multiple ETFs including ARKK, ARKW, and ARKF, and once ranked as the third largest holding in ARKK.
According to CoinDesk, Wall Street bank Cantor Fitzgerald issued a research report indicating that the crypto market is entering the final phase of the current bear cycle. As of June 10, Bitcoin has declined approximately 51% from its 2025 peak, with 252 days having passed since the peak. Synthesizing the past three market cycles, BTC bottoms on average 384 days after the peak; based on this, the low point of this cycle is projected to appear around the end of October. Analysts also noted that the model is not a precise timing tool, and macro, regulatory, and geopolitical risks remain. Regarding network value assessment, Cantor believes Hyperliquid is the prime example of fee-driven token economics, Bitcoin remains the benchmark monetary asset, and Ethereum serves as the primary collateral layer for on-chain finance; Solana, Sui, XRP, and Zcash each possess differentiated advantages, but still need to prove that their ecosystem growth can translate into sustained token demand.
Odaily News: Former Ethereum Foundation researcher and Ethlabs member Ansgar Dietrichs stated on Laura Shin’s Unchained podcast that ETH, after failing to break through the $5,000 mark in five years, still lacks a clear value narrative. Ethlabs was established on June 22 by five former Ethereum Foundation researchers and is supported by Bitmine, Sharplink, and Consensys founder Joe Lubin. On-chain analytics firm Cryptoquant reports that over 32% of the total ETH supply, approximately 39.5 million ETH, is currently staked, while exchange balances continue to decline. The firm also noted that Ethereum’s daily active addresses and smart contract activity have reached record highs, yet the price of ETH has fallen more than 50% from its cycle high.

BTC fell below $60K on June 24, hitting a low of ~$59,000 (intraday decline of approximately 5%). Approximately $994 million in liquidations occurred during the same period (of which approximately $780 million were long positions).

In terms of volatility, DVOL only rose slightly (BTC 44.1→45.7, ETH 57.3→59.5), front-end skew tended to stabilize, and convexity returned to normal.
