At the BTC Prague conference on June 11, Strategy founder Michael Saylor said he "never said the company could not sell bitcoin," framing "never sell" as guidance aimed at individuals rather than a corporate promise. The comments followed Strategy's June 1 sale of 32 BTC for about $2.5 million to help fund preferred-stock dividends, a first-ever disposal that unsettled some holders.

Bitcoin climbed from $61,100 to above $63,400 on June 11, a roughly 3% move tied to risk-on sentiment after President Trump said the U.S. stepped back from planned Iran strikes and a peace memo could be signed as early as this weekend. The rally came while spot Bitcoin ETFs logged 13 straight sessions of outflows totaling $4.4 billion, with markets also focused on the Federal Reserve's June 16–17 meeting and a 98% probability of a rate hold.

BlackRock moved closer to launching its iShares Bitcoin Premium Income ETF (ticker: BITA) after filing Form 8-A with the SEC on June 11. The prospectus lists a 0.65% sponsor fee and a seed portfolio that includes 109.96 BTC and 90,901 IBIT shares, with the strategy designed to sell covered calls to seek monthly income. A Bloomberg ETF analyst said the filing often precedes a launch within about a week, placing June 18 as a possible start date, though not guaranteed.

SpaceX began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 12 under ticker SPCX after setting its IPO price at $135 per share and an implied valuation of about $75 billion. The deal includes 555,555,555 Class A shares and an underwriter option for up to 83,333,333 more shares, with the offering slated to close on June 15. The listing has also been watched by crypto investors amid ETF outflows and broader market drawdowns around key IPO milestones.

Roughly 35,000 Bitcoin options are set to expire on Friday, June 12, with a notional value near $2.23 billion, while about 175,000 Ethereum options worth around $293 million also roll off.

Bitcoin's recent drop to $59.1K pushed short-term holders into a severe stress phase, with short-term holder whales carrying $16.4 billion in unrealized losses. Bitcoin ETFs have also seen the deepest drawdown on record, with an estimated $10.5 billion leaving since 12 October. Miner indicators worsened too, as the 30-day Puell Multiple slid to 0.74 and Miner Capitulation hit -21%, raising concerns that deteriorating conditions could echo 2022-style equipment shutdowns.

Coinbase's Quantum Advisory Board said on June 11 that blockchain developers and crypto holders should start shifting to quantum-resistant cryptography, warning that future quantum machines could eventually compromise wallet security. The group estimated about 6.9 million BTC are in wallets with publicly visible keys, including roughly 1.7 million BTC in legacy P2PK addresses where keys are permanently exposed, while noting no quantum computer can break blockchain encryption today and NIST's recommended migration target is 2035.

Bitcoin returned to gains on Friday, trading at $63,550, up 1.6% on the day and 1.4% over the week.

Major tokens moved higher alongside BTC, while traders watched for whether a formal agreement in Europe this weekend materializes.
