Ethereum Foundation talent exodus sparks fresh debate over leadership

The Ethereum community is once again debating the future of the Ethereum Foundation (EF) after co-executive director Hsiao-Wei Wang announced she would step down from her leadership role, the latest in a growing list of departures that have intensified scrutiny of the organizations management and direction.　　Wang, a longtime Ethereum researcher and one of two co-executive directors appointed earlier last year as part of a leadership restructuring, said she would return to a more research-focused role. Her departure comes during a period of significant change at the Switzerland-based nonprofit that helps coordinate Ethereums research, development and ecosystem initiatives.　　At least eight other senior members have left the Foundation in the past five months, prompting renewed debate about internal governance, organizational culture and whether the EF remains equipped to guide Ethereum through an increasingly competitive blockchain landscape.　　The departures also come as the foundation has unveiled a new strategic framework known as “CROPS,” an acronym standing for cypherpunk values, resilience, open-source development, permissionlessness and security. Foundation leaders presented the framework as a way to clarify the EFs mission and reinforce Ethereums core values as the ecosystem becomes increasingly decentralized. Supporters viewed it as a reaffirmation of Ethereums founding principles, while critics argued it did

Rising leverage, weak demand: Is crypto setting up for a liquidation event？

Speculative interest is building across the market.　　The timing has once again brought attention to whether the crypto market could be heading into another major liquidation cascade in Q3. On the macro side, continued volatility around a potential U.S.-Iran peace deal is keeping investors on edge, with early bearish signals already starting to emerge.　　According to Lookonchain data, a newly created wallet, 0x2558, deposited 4.24 million USDC into Hyperliquid and opened a 10x long position on oil, with a liquidation level around $71. From a technical perspective, oil has been consolidating around $80 for more than 72 hours. However, zooming out, prices have remained in a clear downtrend since May. That leaves the position exposed to liquidation risk.　　Source: TradingView (BRENT OIL/USD)　　As mentioned above, the timing of this trade is what makes it interesting.　　With oil still consolidating and macro uncertainty remaining elevated, it seems premature to dismiss this positioning as random. Instead, it could reflect a strategic bet on rising oil prices amid ongoing geopolitical risks.　　Such a move would be notable, as strength in oil has repeatedly acted as a headwind for crypto liquidity throughout Q2, drawing capital toward energy-linked trades and away from risk assets.　　At the same time, speculative capital isn‘t just

Bitget Adds Real US Stock Ownership to Crypto Accounts With Stock+ Launch

Bitget has launched Stock+, a feature that lets users buy shares in US-listed companies using $USDC and other digital assets, the cryptocurrency exchange said today (Monday).　　The product routes orders through regulated US brokers and gives holders direct ownership of the underlying shares rather than synthetic or derivative exposure, according to the company.　　The launch sits inside Bitgets Stocks 2.0 ecosystem and extends a push to let customers move between crypto and equities inside one account.　　It arrives during a broader scramble among trading venues to fold tokenized and traditional stock trading into crypto platforms.　　How Stock+ Works　　Users fund their accounts with digital assets, convert them into $USDC, and buy listed shares from there, the company said. Trades are executed through brokers including RQD Clearing and Atomic Vaults Securities, with holders eligible for cash dividends and stock split adjustments.　　Trading hours follow US pre-market, regular, and after-hours sessions. Bitget said Stock+ also supports inbound transfers from participating brokers, letting users consolidate existing US equity holdings on the platform.　　Gracy Chen, CEO, Bitget, Source: LinkedIn　　“Access is important, but ownership matters too,” CEO Gracy Chen said in a statement.　　Promotional launch fees start from 0.1%, with a 50% discount running through Aug. 31, the company said.

This Weeks Top 10 Crypto Gainers: AERO, JTO, JUP, WLD, and Others Lead Capital Inflows

Today, crypto market analyst CoinMarketCap highlighted top cryptocurrencies that experienced the highest price gains in the last seven days. The third week of June 2026 brought new waves of capital rotations into some digital assets driven by unique qualities and development around their respective projects, as per the data from the analyst.　　Bitcoin and Ethereum ended the week from June 14 to June 20 with a continued lack of strength, as most crypto markets struggle to find direction amid cautious investor sentiment, partly due to inflation concerns announced by the Federal Reserve last week on Wednesday, June 17. Despite the report, some crypto assets continue attracting buyers, as proven by their performance leading the wider market, as identified by the analyst.　　Top Crypto Gainers This WeekAerodrome Finance ($AERO)　　The CMC data identified Aerodrome Finance ($AERO) as the crypto asset that led price growth over the week, indicating significant user enthusiasm on its DEX and liquidity hub built on Coinbase‘s Base network. As per the data, $AERO surged by 48.77% in the last seven days, collectively attributed to rising DEX dominance, increasing whale accumulation, and rejuvenated user confidence driven by its network’s upcoming Predictive Allocation upgrade.　　Jito ($JTO)　　Jito ($JTO) emerged as the crypto with the

Bitcoin Faces Institutional Demand Shortfall as Coinbase-Binance Gap Flashes Warning

Institutional Buyers Stay on the Sidelines as Negative Coinbase Premium Deepens Concern　　Bitcoin continues to show signs of weak institutional participation, with one key market indicator now flashing a warning that has persisted for a record length of time.　　The Coinbase Premium Index, which measures the price difference between bitcoin on Coinbase Advanced and Binance, has remained predominantly negative in recent weeks. More notably, on-chain analyst Alex Bayarchyk explained on June 21 that the metric has recorded 44 consecutive days in negative territory, marking its longest streak on record.　　The analyst wrote on X:　　“The Coinbase Bitcoin Premium has been negative for a record 44 consecutive days – the longest streak ever.”　　“This means BTC is trading cheaper in the U.S. than on global exchanges, signaling weak institutional demand and capital outflows from the U.S. market. Historically, prolonged negative premiums have preceded periods of weaker price action,” he noted.　　The Coinbase Premium Index is a common measure of institutional demand. Coinbase is often linked to U.S. institutions and professional investors, while Binance has a larger retail presence. When bitcoin trades at a discount on Coinbase versus Binance, it signals weaker institutional demand relative to retail buyers.　　The length of the current streak has drawn attention among market

Crypto perps US future will now be defined by what regulators decide to call them

The next fight over crypto perpetual futures regulation is moving into a place built for lawyers, incumbents, startups, and public-interest groups: the agency comment file.　　The Commodity Futures Trading Commission and Securities and Exchange Commission opened that process June 18, seeking public comment on how to further define swaps, security-based swaps, mixed swaps, novel products, event contracts, and possible alternative compliance approaches.　　That makes SEC-CFTC product definitions a market-structure issue that extends beyond a single listing.　　The joint request for comment turns the fight over crypto perpetuals and prediction-market products into a formal venue before the next wave of approvals reaches the same point.　　The stakes are practical: the current derivatives argument reaches beyond whether one exchange wins one approval. The product label can shape how a contract launches, who can list it, which rulebook governs the trade, what reporting or oversight expectations apply, and whether a crypto-native venue can seek an alternative compliance path rather than fitting a model designed for a different market.　　The public comment period will remain open for 60 days after the request is published in the Federal Register, according to the agencies.　　Until then, the most important near-term signal may come from the first set of comment letters from exchanges,

Are perps swaps？ A quick look at that CME suit: State of Crypto

CME Group filed a lawsuit against the Commodity Futures Trading Commission alleging it should not have approved Kalshis perpetual futures contracts the way it did and asking a court to vacate the approval and self-certified products.　　Youre reading State of Crypto, a CoinDesk newsletter looking at the intersection of cryptocurrency and government. Click here to sign up for future editions.　　Futures or swaps？　　The narrative　　CME Group sued the CFTC on Thursday, alleging the agency did not properly consider prediction market provider Kalshis application to list perpetual futures contracts before granting the application. The suit came a day after outgoing CEO Terry Duffy announced it would file over the approval granted at the end of May.　　Why it matters　　It is — not to put too fine a point on it — somewhat unusual for a company as established as CME to sue its primary regulator. Perpetual futures, otherwise known as perps, are relatively new and the crypto industry is a major part of these contracts. CMEs lawsuit is alleging procedural issues, saying how the CFTC went about its approval of Kalshis perps violated Dodd-Frank and risk harming the company.　　Breaking it down　　CME is arguing that perps are harmful to its long-dated futures products. The lawsuit alleges

$39B returns to crypto markets – Bitcoins macro relief rally may fade WITHOUT…

Optimism around U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio-led ceasefire talks lifted risk sentiment across crypto markets.　　The talks followed a reported agreement between the U.S. and Iran on a 60-day ceasefire framework. Both sides retained the option to extend it through mutual agreement.　　Amid the development, the total crypto market cap increased by roughly $39 billion, up 1.37%, and stabilized near $2.19 trillion. Bitcoin [BTC] reclaimed the $64,000 level at press time.　　Ethereum [ETH] also showed signs of recovery and traded around $1,723. However, average daily trading volume remained below normal levels at $52 billion to $55 billion. That suggested conviction remained limited despite the rebound.　　Are traders turning bullish？　　As markets recovered, traders gradually rebuilt exposure through derivatives. Open Interest stood at roughly $108 billion over the past 24 hours.　　The rise in Open Interest suggested participants positioned for further upside. Even so, overall sentiment remained cautious rather than aggressive.　　Source: CoinGlass　　Funding Rates stayed near neutral to slightly positive, indicating longs paid only a modest premium to maintain positions. Meanwhile, the Long/Short Ratio remained balanced, with longs at 50.35% and shorts at 49.65%.　　Source: CoinGlass　　Liquidations also eased to roughly $146 million after earlier volatility flushed weaker positions. That pointed to improving risk appetite.　　Even so, leverage appeared to

Solana beats Coinbase and Kraken in volume – What it means for SOLs Q3

Spot trading was once dominated by centralized exchanges. That has changed quickly as DEX adoption continues to gain momentum.　　According to DefiLlama, total DEX volume across all chains hit a record $1.34 trillion in Q2 2025, with Solana accounting for 25%+ of the total. The milestone further reinforces Solanas position as the leading chain for on-chain spot trading activity.　　Looking at the breakdown by chain, Solana continues to top the rankings. As the chart below shows, Solana‘s monthly DEX volume recently climbed to nearly $50 billion versus Ethereum’s roughly $35 billion.　　The gap clearly highlights Solanas growing dominance in on-chain trading, driven by strong user activity, deep liquidity, and sustained demand across its DeFi ecosystem.　　Source: DeFiLlama　　Naturally, that brings the focus back to Solanas [$SOL] DeFi setup.　　Here too, the trend remains constructive. Tethers $USDT supply on Solana has expanded by more than 16%, while $USDT on Ethereum has contracted by over 3% during the same period.　　As the largest stablecoin by market cap and a key source of on-chain liquidity, rising $USDT balances on Solana suggest fresh capital continues to flow into the ecosystem.　　That liquidity, in turn, helps support higher trading volumes, deeper liquidity pools, and stronger DeFi activity, reinforcing the growth in $SOLs DEX

Ethereum Price Prediction: Can ETH Reclaim $2K Before Month-End？

After finding support around $1.5K earlier this month, Ethereum has managed to stage a modest recovery. However, the asset remains positioned below critical technical barriers, and sentiment metrics indicate that buyers have not yet regained control of the market. The latter specifically shows a lack of strong institutional demand, suggesting that recovery attempts could face considerable headwinds.　　Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart　　On the daily timeframe, $ETH remains firmly inside the large descending channel that has guided price action lower for several months. The asset recently broke below the important $1.85K support area, which has now flipped into resistance. The breakdown accelerated selling pressure toward the major demand zone at roughly $1.5K. This area, coinciding with the mid-line of the channel, has successfully halted the decline so far, producing a relief bounce back toward the $1.8K region.　　However, the asset was rejected from the $1.8k zone, and the broader structure remains bearish as $ETH continues to trade below both the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, which are sloping downward in the $2.1K-$2.4K range.　　The former support zone around $2K now represents the most significant resistance cluster overhead. A recovery into that area would likely attract fresh selling interest unless accompanied by a decisive
