The background becomes brighter when the price stays in a specific range for a longer period or moves sharply. Brighter zones may act as support or resistance. - The lower CVD indicator reflects buy and sell orders by fund size. As buy orders increase, the line in the corresponding color moves higher. The yellow line is based on orders worth $100 to $1,000, while the brown line is based on large orders worth $1 million to $10 million.

Strategy said on X that its current U.S. dollar cash holdings are enough to cover annual interest and dividend payments for more than three years.

Strategy had previously announced it bought 1,037 BTC worth $81.9 million last week. It also said it repurchased $188.3 million of its STRC preferred shares and increased its cash holdings to $146 million.

Ben Werkman, chief investment officer at Strive (ASST), said Bitcoin treasury companies, or DATs, use three main funding tools: equity offerings, credit instruments such as preferred stock and bonds, and share buybacks. In a post on X, Werkman said these companies typically raise funds through common stock issuance and buy BTC when their shares trade above the value of the Bitcoin they hold. To avoid diluting existing shareholders, they can also issue credit products in the form of preferred stock or bonds to fund BTC purchases, he said. When shares are undervalued or excess cash is available, companies can boost per-share value through buybacks, according to Werkman. Werkman said long-term shareholder value can rise when companies maintain a balanced approach across the three methods: equity issuance that takes advantage of a share-price premium, greater leverage through bonds and preferred stock, and share repurchases.

Bitcoin’s market reaction to the large-scale Binance hack was relatively limited compared with past crises, Fitch Ratings said. Fitch said roughly $6.3 billion was stolen across multiple blockchains in the Binance hack, which it described as the largest hacking incident in the crypto industry to date. Despite the scale of the theft and Binance’s temporary suspension of withdrawals and trading, Bitcoin fell only about 6% in the 10 hours after the initial report. By comparison, Bitcoin dropped 35% in a single day during the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, 14% during the 2022 FTX collapse, and 21% during the 2015 Bitstamp hack. The report said the limited market shock may reflect a maturing and more diversified crypto trading market. As the Bitcoin trading ecosystem has broadened, dependence on any single exchange has declined, Fitch said.

Bitcoin could fall to around $65,000 if weakness in AI and semiconductor stocks triggers broad portfolio liquidations, Russell Thompson, chief investment officer at digital asset investment firm Hilbert Group, said, according to Crypto Briefing. Thompson identified $72,800 as Bitcoin’s initial support level, the area around $72,700 as moving-average support, and $71,900 as a key trend line. He said $65,000 could become an important support level if Bitcoin falls below $71,900, while technical support near the psychologically important $70,000 level would be limited. Thompson added, "However, the pullback from AI and tech stocks will ultimately bring a recovery to the crypto market. Bitcoin’s previous peak coincided with a period when capital moved from crypto into AI, semiconductors and tech stocks. As investors unwind those positions, some of that money could return to crypto. In the short term, market conditions are unfavorable, but Bitcoin could still surge before year-end."

DeFi lending platform World Liberty Financial (WLFI) said it plans to carry out a WLFI buyback on Aster through a designated wallet. The company said the buyback is intended to strengthen active governance participation among its long-term holder community, and funding could come from multiple sources. It added that a substantial portion of total USD1 revenue is paid to partners and service providers, while funds available for buybacks from USD1-related revenue depend on the amount remaining after partner distributions, direct costs and other required expenses. World Liberty Financial said the timing, size and execution of any buyback will be determined based on available funds, applicable requirements and an assessment of the impact on governance participation, and may be changed, suspended or discontinued at any time.

Former Ethereum core developer Nixo has filed a lawsuit against the Ethereum Foundation and founder Vitalik Buterin, The Block reported. Nixo claimed internal foundation guidelines included a "suicide pledge" and said Nixo was fired after disclosing a cancer diagnosis. According to the report, the pledge said source code documents must always be made available for free and that if a signatory failed to comply or modified or deleted part of the license, the signatory would have to take their own life. The foundation had previously said the disputed wording reflected a cultural context and did not literally require such an act. Nixo nonetheless stressed the wording appeared in an official document laying out the foundation's long-term operating principles, and said employees had asked for it to be removed but it remained in the final document.
