The total stablecoin supply also fell from a high of nearly $316 billion in May to $300.89 billion, but the decline was far lower than on the exchange side, indicating that some liquidity may have shifted on-chain rather than exiting completely.
Analyst: Short-Term Holder Supply Share Continues to Contract, May Reflect Bitcoin Is in Opportunity Zone
CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that the share of supply held by Short-Term Holders (STH) in the Bitcoin market is declining significantly, with the current distribution as follows: less than 1 day accounts for 1.2%, 1 day to 1 week accounts for 2%, 1 week to 1 month accounts for 5.6%, 1 month to 3 months accounts for 6.7%, and 3 months to 6 months accounts for 8.1%. He believes that this trend usually appears at the end of a bear market: on one hand, it indicates that the number of Long-Term Holders (LTH) is increasing, with fewer coins in active circulation in the market; on the other hand, it also indicates that new demand has not yet significantly returned.

"White-Haired Stock God" Serenity Slams the Paid Investment Research Community: Would Rather Share Openly Than Sell "Wall Street Secrets"
The self-proclaimed "White-Haired Stock Guru" Serenity posted that he recently observed a disappointing pattern: first attempting to compete for the same audience, then quickly funneling traffic toward paid communities or high-priced services. After he refuses to join or promote paid groups, they switch to personal attacks, framing them as "fundamental viewpoint disagreements." When he first joined X, financial content was saturated with luxury watches, private jets, options trading, and promotions for "Wall Street Secrets" paid communities and technical analysis charts. Consequently, he has always aimed to take a different approach by publicly sharing his research and investment logic, making it freely accessible to everyone so they can form their own judgments. Serenity added that although some had previously claimed he would eventually raise the subscription price to $100, his rate has consistently remained at $1 for months and will continue to be kept at the lowest possible price. He also outlined his investment perspectives on stocks such as AXTI, NBIS, AEHR, MU, and INTC. Serenity noted that some investment themes may not be verifiable until 2027–2028, covering subjects related to Sivers, Foci, and Shunsin. Finally, Serenity emphasized that not every investment thesis needs to be right, as uncertainty is inherent to research. Rather than seeing information increasingly trapped behind a $100 paywall or diluted by engagement-bait content, he hopes X will cultivate a new culture centered on openly sharing investment logic, enabling everyone to learn from rigorous research.
Data: Ethereum and BNB Chain Share 65,340 High-Risk Addresses, with Associated Losses Exceeding $574 Million
Odaily News - A study published at USENIX Security '26 reveals that researchers identified 65,340 high-risk cryptocurrency addresses involved in abuse on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with associated native token losses reaching 126,982.94 ETH and 17,726.7 BNB. The study estimates that total losses linked to these addresses exceed $574.8 million, of which two newly described active attack vectors directly caused approximately $15.7 million in losses (2.7% of the total). The first category involves contract account misuse and exploitation of deterministic contract addresses; the second leverages EIP-7702 to delegate accounts with exposed keys to malicious code that directly transfers deposits. The research team extracted over 16.3 million unique private keys by mining 63,004 GitHub repositories from January 2015 to May 2025, achieving an overall accuracy rate of 99.11% in detection results.

Ripple to Share North Korean Threat Intelligence with Crypto Industry to Counter Long-Period Social Engineering Attacks
According to CoinDesk, Ripple announced on Monday that it will share its internal intelligence on North Korean hackers with Crypto ISAC, a threat intelligence-sharing organization for the cryptocurrency industry, to help businesses identify coordinated intrusion campaigns. This move comes amid a recent shift in attack patterns targeting the cryptocurrency sector. The April theft of $285 million from the Drift protocol was not a traditional smart-contract vulnerability exploit; instead, North Korean hackers spent months building relationships with Drift contributors and installing malware on their devices before stealing private keys. Ripple stated: “The strongest crypto security posture is a shared one. A threat actor rejected by one company after background screening may submit resumes to three other companies the same week. Without shared intelligence, each company starts from scratch.”

Ethereum L2 Strategy Faces Scrutiny: Robinhood Earns $6 Million Daily, Yet Ethereum Struggles to Get Its Share
In a post, DeFi researcher Ignas noted that Robinhood previously set a record for single-day fees exceeding $6 million, with approximately 10% flowing to Arbitrum, while the revenue ultimately distributed to Ethereum L1 was "pitifully small." Ignas argues that this model may not be entirely unreasonable, much like how Uber initially traded subsidies for growth; Ethereum could also leverage L2 to attract traditional financial businesses into its ecosystem and gradually raise its "rents" once substantial switching costs are established within the ecosystem.
