Zcash is officially checking the shielded pool Ironwood to remove the risk of undetectable counterfeit ZEC minting, following the counterfeiting error incident related to Orchard.
This development is important because trust in Zcash’s security mechanism and the integrity of its supply was strongly affected in the past. The ZEC price has also clearly reacted to news about the bug and the new verification plan.

SpaceX is said to have moved a very small amount of Bitcoin from a dormant wallet over the past six months, drawing attention on-chain even though the key details of the transaction have not yet been fully confirmed.
The point of interest isn't the value of around $88, but the fact that a wallet linked to SpaceX suddenly went active after a long period of silence. However, the available information is still not enough to conclude whether this is a wallet test, a custody restructuring, or something bigger.

Bitcoin and Ethereum are near record lows in exchange supply, a signal that on-chain analysts often interpret as a sign that short-term selling pressure is easing.
This index measures the portion of supply that is held in the wallets of centralized exchanges. When coins leave exchanges and are transferred to self-custody or cold storage, the amount of assets that can be sold immediately can shrink.

U.S. President Donald Trump said the temporary ceasefire agreement with Iran has “ended,” increasing the risk that military tensions between the two countries will flare up again.
He made this assessment at the annual NATO summit on Wednesday, after the United States carried out a new round of airstrikes against Iran and revoked waivers that had allowed Iranian oil sales.
The developments took place after attacks near the Strait of Hormuz, a key area for global oil shipping routes. This continued to make energy markets volatile and test an already fragile agreement between Washington and Tehran.

MiniMax is reportedly developing a new large language model with 2.7 trillion parameters, surpassing the existing domestic AI models available on the market.

Hyperliquid Labs transferred 452,000 HYPE, worth about $32.32 million, in the early hours of 8/7. At the same time, HYPE fell 5% over the day.
On-chain analyst Yu Jin said that part of these HYPE tokens may have been sold via market maker Flowdesk. Some tokens entered Flowdesk’s on-chain wallet, while the rest were sent to Flowdesk’s deposit addresses on OKX, Bybit, and Gate.
It is not yet clear how all of the tokens were handled after being transferred, nor the specific extent of this token flow’s impact on the market. The data mentioned only shows destinations related to Flowdesk.

Michael Saylor said that a commonly misunderstood metric of MSTR is the Bitcoin break-even ARR. He said that if Bitcoin’s long-term growth exceeds 3.3%, the gross price appreciation could be enough to fund STRC dividends indefinitely.
This comment was posted by him on X on July 8. There is currently no further detail on how this metric is calculated beyond the assessment he provided.
Saylor did not provide any new data about MSTR beyond the emphasis above. The content he discussed focuses on the relationship between Bitcoin’s long-term growth and STRC’s ability to maintain dividends.

Shares of Bitcoin-mining companies are clearly outperforming Bitcoin since the start of 2025, while many AI-related stocks such as semiconductors and memory have just gone through a valuation correction.
According to BIT analysis, this divergence momentum began in Q3 and is now seen as a more structural shift rather than a short-term fluctuation. Price action suggests the market is evaluating the Bitcoin-mining company group differently than before.

CryptoQuant said that about 40% of altcoins are trading close to historical lows, when the price is still below 25% of its all-time high. This figure previously rose to 45% at the end of June, when Bitcoin fell below $60,000.
Analyst Darkfost called this an extreme state of stagnation in the altcoin market. The data he provided shows prolonged weak pressure across many tokens, rather than being concentrated only in a few separate groups.
Darkfost also believes the market has fundamentally changed as the number of crypto assets being created has increased very rapidly. According to CoinMarketCap, there are about 53.5 million crypto coins, with 60,000 new tokens appearing every day.
