Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen below the $75,000 mark for the first time since its sharp decline following a tariff issue on April 7, 2025, according to Glassnode. The on-chain analytics firm noted that addresses holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC, which account for over two-thirds of the total Bitcoin supply, have net sold 50,181 BTC over the past two weeks. In contrast, small-scale investors holding less than 0.01 BTC have reportedly been buying the dip in anticipation of a price rebound.

Global investment bank Standard Chartered has lowered its 2026 price target for Solana (SOL) to $250 from $310, The Block reported.

Instead, he argued, they must establish themselves as a spectrum of options, each providing its own distinct and differentiated value.
