أفاد الرئيس دونالد ترامب في إفصاحه المالي السنوي بتحقيق دخل كبير من مشاريع مرتبطة بالعملات المشفرة بلغ نحو 1.4 مليار دولار. وتُظهر الإفصاحات الجديدة حصوله على 635 مليون دولار كإتاوات من نشاطه المرتبط بعملة ميم، إلى جانب أكثر من 715 مليون دولار من مبيعات توكنات World Liberty Financial وبيع حصص ملكية ودخل من المحافظ. كما تشير الوثائق إلى امتلاكه، عبر كيانات مرتبطة، حيازات من البيتكوين والإيثريوم تزيد على 50 مليون دولار لكل منهما.

قال إد يارديني، المعروف بتفاؤله حيال الأسهم، إن حتى نظرته لم تكن متفائلة بالقدر الكافي. وذكر رئيس Yardeni Research في مقابلة جديدة مع CNBC أن السوق الحالية تبدو وكأنها «العشرينيات الهادرة». وفي مقابلة سابقة في وقت سابق من هذا الشهر، رفع يارديني هدفه لمؤشر S&P 500 بنهاية العام إلى 8,250.

Radiant Capital (RDNT) said on June 2, 2026 that it will shut down its DeFi lending protocol, after an October 2024 attack that drained $50,000,000. The project said the breach involved malware that led developers to sign "poisoned" transactions while Safe {Wallet} appeared to show legitimate details. On-chain tracking later indicated the stolen funds were converted into about 21,957 ETH, with selling activity beginning in August 2025.

CoinShares reported that institutional crypto products recorded $1.67 billion in net outflows over the past week, extending the streak to three consecutive weeks of withdrawals. Bitcoin accounted for $1.438 billion of the redemptions and Ethereum saw $257 million, while total assets under management slipped to $141 billion. Three-week cumulative outflows were listed at $4.21 billion, with US products contributing $1.63 billion of the latest week's exits.

On May 28, 2026, pseudonymous trader KillaXBT said Bitcoin needs to defend $75,000 to avoid a broader downturn, while a push toward the $80,000 area remains a key test. He also outlined a potential path that could revisit the $74,000 region if BTC fails to reclaim $80,000, and noted $54,000 as a realized-price level to watch. Bitcoin was quoted at $75,652 at publication time, down 1.2% on the day.

On May 20, 2026, Morgan Stanley chief cross-asset strategist Serena Tang said the bank is staying constructive on risk assets through the rest of 2026 despite rising geopolitical, energy-price and credit-market uncertainty. She pointed to expectations for resilient US growth and earnings, plus an AI-driven capex cycle, while reiterating an S&P 500 mid-2027 target of 8,300 and a preference for equities over core fixed income.

Institutional investors withdrew a combined $1.07 billion from Bitcoin and digital-asset investment products in one week, ending a seven-week run of inflows and marking the year's third-largest weekly outflow. Bitcoin led the declines with $982 million leaving, while Ethereum recorded $249 million in outflows, its biggest weekly redemption since January 30th. XRP and Solana bucked the trend, drawing $67.6 million and $55.1 million in inflows, respectively.

Crypto trader Cheds says Bitcoin could face a sharp pullback after rebounding back into the $70,000 zone, unless it can reclaim $85,000 as support. He argues a move through the mid-$80,000s would help validate a W/double-bottom setup, and he prefers seeing a weekly close above $85,000. At publication, BTC traded at $79,402, down 1.5% on the day.

PeckShield says the attacker behind the TrustedVolumes incident has begun laundering part of the approximately $6.7 million taken from the liquidity provider. The firm reports $278,000 has been laundered so far, including 10.2 ETH ($23,600) sent to TornadoCash and 110 ETH ($250,000) swapped via THORChain into BTC, after the May 7 exploit.
