Crypto ‘super-apps’ could funnel $2T into global stock markets by 2031 – Binance

Binances tokenized stock trading is currently being dominated by emerging markets. According to a recent Binance Research report, 93% of the trading volumes come from emerging markets, flashing similarity to the global stablecoin adoption pattern.  Source: Binance Research  Tokenized stocks and ETFs allow native crypto users to trade U.S equity markets via blockchain rails. While investors rights vary based on the issuer of the particular tokenized stock offering, they seem to be closing the gap in participation in the global equity market.  According to the Binance Research report, the U.S equity market is about $80 trillion, and about half of the total global market capitalization. However, 82% of the worlds population lacks access to the largest equity market on earth.  In fact, China and India, which control a third of the current global population, have a less than 20% participation rate.  Source: Binance Research  Binances report also found that crypto platforms have eliminated brokerage barriers that had previously limited participation in the U.S equity market.  This draws a striking comparison to stablecoin adoption, which exploded in emerging markets due to demand for the U.S dollar to hedge against local currency devaluations and volatility.  Now, ‘crypto super-apps’ allow users to consolidate their crypto, equities, and cash management in one

Bitcoin price confirms rounding top breakdown, risks drop below $50K

Bitcoin has confirmed a major rounding top breakdown after losing the $65,000 support zone, with technical indicators and derivatives positioning pointing to a possible decline toward the mid-$40,000 range.  According to data from crypto.news, Bitcoin ($BTC) price traded near $62,900 on June 11 after recovering from a sharp selloff that briefly pushed the asset below $61,000 earlier in the week.  Market sentiment remains fragile as investors continue digesting persistent spot ETF outflows, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and growing concerns that capital is rotating into high-profile technology opportunities instead of crypto assets.  SoSoValue data shows that the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded another $213.8 million in net outflows on June 10, extending the current losing streak to four consecutive sessions.  The withdrawals followed a modest $3 million inflow on June 4, which briefly interrupted a 13-day outflow streak that saw $4.33 billion leave Bitcoin investment products. The prolonged selling pressure has removed one of the markets strongest sources of demand during the recent correction.  Institutional sentiment has also weakened on spot exchanges. Earlier this month, the Coinbase Premium Index dropped into negative territory, showing that U.S.-based investors were selling Bitcoin more aggressively than traders on offshore venues. At the same time, derivatives markets experienced

Solana price could revisit June lows as recovery runs out of steam

Solana price has failed to build momentum after rebounding from last weeks lows, with technical and on-chain signals pointing to lingering downside risks.  According tot data from crypto.news, Solana ($SOL) fell from around $80 on June 1 to a multi-month low near $61 on June 6 as aggressive whale selling and a wave of derivatives liquidations swept through the crypto market. Buyers stepped in after the selloff and pushed $SOL back toward $67 by June 9, but the recovery stalled before reaching the psychologically important $70 level.  Since then, the token has failed to establish a stronger uptrend, with price action on the four-hour chart showing signs of a bearish flag formation after the initial rebound.  Staking decline and whale activity raise fresh concerns  The weakness follows one of Solanas sharpest corrections of the year. During the June 1-6 decline, more than $1.5 billion worth of leveraged long positions were liquidated across the crypto market, according to liquidation data, while $SOL emerged among the hardest-hit large-cap cryptocurrencies.  Institutional activity added to the pressure. Blockchain tracking data showed several large transfers to centralized exchanges during the selloff, including a 455,784 $SOL transfer worth roughly $31.9 million from Forward Industries to Coinbase Prime. Such movements are often

XRP price holds $1.10 as ETF inflows rise, but can bulls reclaim $1.13?

$XRP, the token associated with Ripple and the $XRP Ledger, traded near $1.12 on June 11 after holding the $1.10 support area during a volatile session.  According to crypto.news market data, the token gained 0.72% over 24 hours, but it remained down 4.47% over seven days and 23.86% over the past month.  The current setup shows a cautious recovery. $XRP-linked investment products continue to attract inflows, futures trading has increased, and analysts are pointing to early rebound signals. Still, $XRP remains below major recovery levels and continues to lag stronger parts of the crypto market.  $XRP holds $1.10 after late-session volume surge  $XRPs 24-hour trading range stood between $1.09 and $1.13, with volume around $1.94 billion. Its market capitalization was near $69.2 billion, keeping the token ranked sixth by market value.  The price action shows that buyers defended the $1.10 area after last weeks sharp decline. That zone now acts as the main short-term support because it sits close to the latest breakdown low.  $XRP briefly pushed above $1.12 after stronger late-session volume. The move followed earlier trading near $1.11, where buyers tried to rebuild a base after recent selling pressure.  However, the rebound still looks limited. The $1.12-$1.13 area remains the first resistance zone, while $1.1352

TradFi advisors want stablecoins, tokenization over Bitcoin: Bitwise

Advisors to some of the largest financial institutions are taking more of an interest in stablecoins and tokenization than in Bitcoin, which could help pull crypto out of its current slump, said Bitwise investment chief Matt Hougan.  Hougan said in a note on Wednesday that he recently spoke with more than 40 advisors who were “still interested in crypto” but are “more interested today in stablecoins and tokenization than they are in Bitcoin.”  “It was pretty hard to engage with advisors on Bitcoin this week,” he said. “In call after call, they expressed much more curiosity over the real-world applications of crypto that are quickly reshaping everything from capital markets to global payments.”  Stablecoins and tokenization have recently captured the interest of Wall Street, as Bitcoin (BTC) has struggled to maintain momentum, trading down almost 30% so far this year to $62,500.  Stablecoin issuer Circle saw a buzzy initial public offering in June 2025, with its stock quickly rallying to a peak of $240 from its debut price of $31. It has since struggled amid a wider rout in crypto stocks, closing at just under $79 on Wednesday.  Tokenization is also set for a boost as the US Securities and Exchange Commission is reportedly planning

Has Bitcoin found its price bottom? KEY indicator says not yet

Bitcoin [$BTC] could trend even lower as market dynamics keep the asset locked in a range between $59,000 and $63,000.  Momentum behind any rebound remains weak, and fresh data tied to global market liquidity warns that Bitcoin may slip further before it carves out a bottom and stages a strong bullish recovery.  Bitcoin-to-global M2 ratio points to more downside  Data from Alphractal shows that the Global Money Supply (M2) can serve as a useful indicator for tracking $BTCs tops and bottoms through their ratio.  M2 tracks the money supply and near‑cash assets that can be quickly converted into cash. The M2 ratio serves as a proxy for whether Bitcoin is overvalued at market tops or undervalued at market bottoms, with chart color gradients highlighting those zones.  Source: Alphractal  At the time of reporting, the ratio sat at 0.94%, representing Bitcoins market cap as a share of the global M2 supply. Although that reading is relatively low, the analysis suggests it may need to fall further into the blue region, the zone that has often marked the bottom, before global liquidity eventually rotates into risk assets.  For context, when Bitcoins market‑cap‑to‑global‑M2 ratio reached 2%, it marked the overheated zone on the chart, triggering the broader decline.  Five weeks of

Teen crypto scammer stole $13M to splurge on private jets, Lambo

A Canadian teen stole more than $13 million in crypto through social engineering scams to pay for an “exotic lifestyle” in Miami and Los Angeles, including buying luxury cars, jewelry and taking private jet trips, US prosecutors say.  In May, US prosecutors charged then-19-year-old Trenton Richard Johnston for a scheme in which he and co-conspirators impersonated Google, Trezor and other crypto firm employees to gain access to victims crypto.  On Tuesday, Johnston, now 20, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering, avoiding further charges that could have resulted in a maximum sentence of up to 40 years in prison.  Trenton Richard Johnstons mugshot. Source: Miami-Dade County  Social engineering attacks, where scammers portray themselves as trusted entities or people to trick victims, have become widespread in crypto, as artificial intelligence tools have boosted the capabilities of attackers to impersonate others.  “This case shows that some of the biggest crypto thefts today are not driven by sophisticated code exploits, but by basic human manipulation,” Cyvers CEO and co-founder Deddy Lavid told Cointelegraph.  “Crypto makes this especially dangerous because transactions are fast and largely irreversible,” he added.  “The attacker only needs to win the victims trust once, for a few minutes, and the loss can be permanent.”  According to court

Total net inflows for Ethereum ETFs were at $41.52 million at press time, after several red weeks through May. While it doesn‘t negate the earlier outflows, it’s definitely proof of recovery.

Wall Street is buying DeFi tokens again, even as everyone worries the code is unsafe

The total value locked (TVL) on DeFi fell from $172 billion to $148 billion as the sector logged $635 million in exploit losses across April alone. Coinbase Ventures bought Ethenas $ENA token on the open market, Janus Henderson took its own strategic $ENA position, and Morpho closed a $175 million round structured entirely around the $MORPHO token.  Apollo separately secured rights to acquire up to 90 million $MORPHO tokens over 48 months.  The bet these investors are making is that governance tokens attached to DeFi protocols with real institutional distribution will rerate as financial infrastructure, and that the security panic accelerates that outcome by flushing weaker protocols out of the running.  A timeline graphic contrasting DeFis $635 million in April 2026 exploit losses and falling TVL against four major institutional token purchases made in June 2026.The infrastructure bet  Morpho reports $11 billion-plus in deposits and counts Bitwise, Galaxy, Anchorage Digital, Coinbase, Kraken, and Binance among its institutional users.  Apollos token acquisition agreement was capped at 90 million $MORPHO over 48 months with transfer and trading restrictions, structured through open-market purchases, OTC transactions, or other contractual arrangements.  Fortune reported the $175 million raise valued the protocol at up to $2 billion, a figure derived entirely from the
