Bitcoin (BTC) may be approaching a bear-market floor based on historical on-chain valuation signals, but weakening demand keeps any bottom unconfirmed. After dropping to a new cycle low of $59,000 last week, BTC is about 9% above its realized price of $53,600, while total demand and ETF-related flows show continued contraction.

XRP has fallen under the long-held $1.32 support and is trading around $1.15 after a sharp selloff pushed it below major moving averages. The report highlights three XRP Ledger on-chain readings—payment activity above one million transactions per day for much of the prior month, payment-volume spikes including one over 1.5 billion XRP, and still-elevated active users—as signs the decline may be nearing exhaustion. A recovery would likely need $1.32 reclaimed first, with the 200-day moving average near $1.70 cited as the next key area.

Bitcoin is heading into a potentially turbulent June 15–17 window as the Bank of Japan releases its rate outlook and the Fed delivers its FOMC decision, with markets highly sensitive to policy signals. BTC recently slipped below $60K, rebounded nearly 7%, and remains more than 20% under earlier 2026 highs, leaving traders split on whether a durable bottom has formed.

Coinbase’s Quantum Advisory Council released a report outlining how a future post-quantum migration could affect Bitcoin, focusing on coins linked to exposed public keys and address reuse. It estimates roughly 7 million BTC could face potential long-term exposure, including about 1.7 million BTC in legacy P2PK addresses and around 5 million BTC associated with reused addresses. The report frames the issue as forward-looking planning rather than a claim that quantum computers can break Bitcoin today.

A Bank of China survey found that 95% of overseas businesses expect to sustain or increase yuan use for cross-border settlements, with 34.5% anticipating growth and 61.4% expecting no change. The February poll covered 3,501 firms, and just 4.1% said their yuan settlement activity would decline. Willingness to hold yuan deposits rose to over 30%, a five-year high and 6.4% higher than last year.

On 14 June 2026 at 11:46, BitMEX co-founder and Maelstrom CIO Arthur Hayes disputed claims that his public commentary on HYPE, NEAR and WLD was followed by sales that used followers as exit liquidity. He said he only discloses his own portfolio moves, does not tell others to buy or sell, and that the exits reflected a macro shift he calls "AI jitters" rather than changing sentiment on the tokens.

Bitcoin’s next mining difficulty adjustment is estimated to decline about 9.55% in roughly eight hours, easing conditions for miners after the network hashrate slid following early June price volatility. Over the past two weeks, hashrate fell from around 1 ZH/s at end-May to roughly 861 EH/s near June 10, then recovered to about 894 EH/s, while hashprice dipped below $30/PH/s during the selloff.
