Executive scan
Today in crypto was led by market-structure strain rather than a single clean catalyst. Bitcoin coverage dominated the source mix, with reports pointing to a drop toward $58,000, more than $1 billion in 24-hour liquidations, and a fifth straight day of spot bitcoin ETF outflows, including a $469.08 million exit led by BlackRock’s IBIT.
The institutional lane stayed busy. Kalshi was reported to be seeking funding at a roughly $40 billion valuation, SBI Holdings agreed to buy Bitbank in a nearly $289 million deal pending regulatory approval, and Ondo’s SPCXon passed $10 million in tokenized market cap. Infrastructure also mattered: Coinbase-backed Base recovered after a block-production issue lasting more than two hours, while Strategy-linked STRC traded sharply below its $100 sale price as reports flagged unrealized BTC losses above $13 billion.
