According to BlockBeats, a transaction report from investment firm Off the Chain Capital suggests that creditors of Mt. Gox will start receiving compensation from next week. However, they may be reluctant to give up the tokens they have held for a decade. Off the Chain Capital CEO, Brian Dixon, wrote in the report that he does not anticipate an immediate market sell-off of these assets once Mt. Gox has completed its distribution. He noted that he has not seen many creditors selling their Bitcoin immediately after receiving it, as was the case a few years ago. This is because Bitcoin has matured significantly since Mt. Gox filed for bankruptcy in 2014. Creditors must ask themselves whether they need this cash to purchase something, or if it would be better to keep Bitcoin as a long-term store of value, Dixon added. He also mentioned that Bitcoin has been the best-performing asset in 12 of the past 15 years.

According to Odaily, Matrixport, a digital assets financial services platform, has reported that Bitcoin is currently oversold. Historical data suggests that an oversold status is typically followed by a certain degree of rebound. At present, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum oscillator used to measure the speed and change of price movements, has reached its lowest point since August of the previous year. Matrixport's analysis is based on the RSI, a tool that traders use to identify potential buy and sell opportunities. An RSI reading of 30 or below is generally interpreted as indicating oversold conditions, suggesting that the price may start to rise as the selling pressure eases. The current RSI level, hitting its lowest since last August, suggests that Bitcoin is significantly oversold and a rebound could be on the horizon. It's important to note that while the RSI is a useful tool in predicting market trends, it is not infallible and should be used in conjunction with other market indicators for a more comprehensive analysis. Investors are advised to conduct their own research and consult with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

According to BlockBeats, Robert Kiyosaki, the author of 'Rich Dad Poor Dad', has revealed that he continues to invest in Bitcoin on a monthly basis. Kiyosaki made this revelation on social media, crediting Raoul Pal, the CEO of Real Vision, for initially encouraging him to invest in the cryptocurrency. Years ago, Pal suggested that Kiyosaki should start investing in Bitcoin. Heeding this advice, Kiyosaki purchased 30 Bitcoins at a price of $6,000 each. Today, the same Bitcoin is valued at approximately $60,000. Despite the significant increase in price, Kiyosaki continues to buy Bitcoin every month. He described Bitcoin as a 'rule-based currency' in his social media post.

According to PANews, the price of Bitcoin in the coming months could be entirely determined by the immense fractal energy if you believe in it. As we know, Bitcoin hit a historical high of nearly $73,740 in March, which is the peak of the current cycle. This could mean the bull market has ended. The trading prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum fell by 5% today, causing almost all other currencies except stable coins to suffer losses, which certainly does not help to boost market sentiment.However, the problem with markets is that you never know when they will peak. Looking back, the historical high that Bitcoin set in December 2017 was obviously the highest point for the next three years, even though altcoins would continue to rise for a few weeks. In March 2021, when Bitcoin first broke through $61,000, it is still uncertain whether Bitcoin will plummet by 13% in November (only eight months later) after retreating nearly half.At some point, the bull market has obviously come to an end. Bears may have proposed this earlier than bulls, but in any case, the internal explosion of Terra in the next May and the subsequent cascading liquidation and bankruptcy are indeed nails. When it comes to price, all we can really do is look back. Since Bitcoin bottomed out in November 2022, 585 days (about 20 months) have passed, which we conveniently call the beginning of the current bull market.The chart depicts a comparison between bull markets. So far, everything is going well. Using this very basic definition, the previous two bull markets peaked after about 840 and 1,060 days. Therefore, if we are destined to repeat these periods—a big assumption—then we are firmly in the second half of the cycle.In the past two quarters, the price of Bitcoin has risen 6 times and 3 times respectively. Even after the recent decline, the return on Bitcoin since it bottomed out has reached 4 times so far, placing it in the recent bull market. If Bitcoin really peaked in March, then this will be the shortest bull market cycle on record, not including the first year of its price discovery.

According to Foresight News, US Senator Ted Cruz has expressed his strong support for Bitcoin, stating that Texas should welcome Bitcoin mining. Cruz revealed that he owns three mining machines that are currently operating in Texas, earning him between 30 and 40 dollars daily. He sees potential in the cryptocurrency and believes that his home state could benefit from embracing this technology.

On Jun 25, 2024, 22:45 (UTC). According to Binance Market Data, Bitcoin (BTC) has dropped below 62,000 USDT and is now trading at 61,975.210938 USDT, with a narrowed 3.06% increase in 24 hours.

According to Odaily, US Congressman Matt Gaetz has initiated a proposal to allow the use of Bitcoin (BTC) for federal income tax payments. This move, if approved, could mark a significant shift in the acceptance and use of cryptocurrencies in the US government's financial transactions. The proposal is currently under review and could potentially change the landscape of digital currency usage in the country. It is worth noting that the acceptance of Bitcoin for tax payments would not only legitimize its use but also potentially encourage more people to invest and transact in Bitcoin. However, the proposal is still in its early stages and will need to undergo several legislative processes before it can be implemented. The implications of such a move on the US economy and the global cryptocurrency market are yet to be fully understood.

On Jun 25, 2024, 14:30 (UTC). According to Binance Market Data, Bitcoin (BTC) has crossed the 62,000 USDT benchmark and is now trading at 62,130.628906 USDT, with a narrowed 1.37% increase in 24 hours.

According to Odaily, Japanese listed company Metaplanet has announced the establishment of a wholly-owned subsidiary in the British Virgin Islands. The move is aimed at strengthening the strategic management of their Bitcoin (BTC) assets. Previously, the directors of Metaplanet had approved a plan to purchase Bitcoin, valued at approximately $6.25 million (1 billion yen). The establishment of the subsidiary in the British Virgin Islands is a strategic move by Metaplanet to enhance its management and control over its Bitcoin assets. This comes after the company's board of directors gave the green light for a significant investment in Bitcoin. The investment, which is estimated to be worth around $6.25 million, underscores the company's commitment to integrating digital currency into its asset portfolio. The decision by Metaplanet to invest in Bitcoin and establish a subsidiary for its management indicates a growing trend among corporations to embrace digital currencies. As the value and acceptance of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue to rise, more companies are exploring ways to incorporate these digital assets into their strategic plans. Metaplanet's move is a clear indication of this trend.

According to BlockBeats: on June 25, 10x Research tweeted that Bitcoin is currently severely oversold. Many opinion leaders are advising their followers to buy on dips while altcoins appear to be performing relatively stable. The 10x Research Greed and Fear Index is close to its historical low, a level typically associated with market bottoms. Key Points: 1. Bitcoin is Deeply Oversold: - Influencer Advice: Influencers are recommending buying the dip as Bitcoin seems deeply oversold. Meanwhile, altcoins are holding their ground relatively well. - Greed & Fear Index: The 10x Research Greed & Fear Index is nearing its lowest possible levels, often associated with market lows, indicating a potential buying opportunity. 2. Reasons for Bitcoin Sell-Off: Several factors are contributing to the ongoing Bitcoin sell-off: - Mt. Gox Distribution: Estimated $9 billion worth of Bitcoin distribution from Mt. Gox creditors starting in July. - German Government Sales: The German Government is reportedly selling $3 billion worth of confiscated Bitcoin. - Bitcoin Miners: Miners are selling approximately $2-3 billion worth of Bitcoin. - ETFs: Bitcoin ETFs are selling around $1.4 billion worth of BTC. - OG Wallets: Original Bitcoin wallets are liquidating about $1.2 billion worth of BTC. Hypothetically, this totals between $16-18 billion, comparable to the year-to-date Bitcoin ETF inflows. 3. Trading Signals and Market Predictions: - Sell Signals: Our trading signals have indicated multiple sell signals for Bitcoin.  - June 12: A new volatility signal predicted a decline when Bitcoin traded at $67,339.  - June 24: A price range signal indicated further declines when Bitcoin traded at $61,113. - Market Concerns: Despite some attributing the latest drop to Mt. Gox-related FUD and other influences, there appears to be a structural factor impacting the market. This could lead to more profound consequences and potentially deeper declines before a rebound from lower levels might occur. Additional Concerns: There's growing concern that more liquidity may exit the market, especially since the current price levels are near the break-even point for Bitcoin ETF buyers and miners.  - ETF Buyer Price: The average entry price for Bitcoin ETF buyers is around $60,000-$61,000. - Mining Costs: The average mining cost for Bitcoin miners is approximately $60,000 per Bitcoin. Both ETF buyers and miners may continue to sell despite influencers' and speculators' optimistic outlooks. Currently, Bitcoin is holding steady at $60,000, but the question remains: for how long? A potential decline to $50,000 is becoming increasingly plausible given the selling pressures. Bitcoin is at a critical juncture, deeply oversold with significant selling pressures from various sources. Influencers recommend buying the dip, but underlying concerns about liquidity and market fundamentals suggest caution. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether Bitcoin can maintain its $60,000 support or if a fall to $50,000 is imminent.

The law mandates that Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) must ensure user deposits through banks. Additionally, VASPs have the right to halt user cash deposits as well as deposits and withdrawals of virtual assets for reasons stipulated by the law. Previously, it was reported that the Financial Services Commission plans to establish a Virtual Asset Committee, responsible for providing advice on policies and regulations for the cryptocurrency market.

According to BlockBeats, Canadian rapper Drake recently lost over $1 million in Bitcoin betting on the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup Finals. Drake initially placed a bet on the Dallas Mavericks to win the NBA Finals, resulting in a loss of $500,000 in Bitcoin.

Furthermore, political betting markets like Polymarket have drawn attention due to high-risk events such as the 2024 US Presidential Election, with trading volumes reaching millions of dollars.

According to U.Today, Mt. Gox trustees have initiated the repayment process of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash to investors. This move marks a significant step in the redistribution of BTC and BCH that have been locked since the notorious 2011 hack. The Mt. Gox exchange, once the largest Bitcoin exchange globally, had to shut down after losing over 700,000 BTC in the hack. Since then, the process of repaying investors has been hindered by numerous legal and administrative challenges. The commencement of repayments is a crucial turning point in this ongoing issue. The redistribution of Mt. Gox funds could potentially have a significant impact on the market. The release of these funds might lead to substantial selling pressure for Bitcoin, which is currently struggling to maintain its price above key levels. The return of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash to investors is now in the final stages, as stated by Mt. Gox trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi. The repayment schedule is set to begin in early July 2024. According to the Rehabilitation Plan, repayments will be made in Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash. The repayments will be carried out in collaboration with multiple cryptocurrency exchanges, ensuring the completion of essential data exchange and verification before the funds are released. Kobayashi emphasized that the team has put in a lot of effort to ensure the repayments are reliable and secure. This includes implementing technological solutions for safe transactions that comply with financial laws in each country and collaborating with cryptocurrency exchanges to set up repayment terms.

According to U.Today, a recent poll initiated by MicroStrategy chairman and cofounder Michael Saylor has revealed a strong bullish sentiment within the crypto community. The poll asked participants about their expectations for Bitcoin's annual appreciation in USD over the next ten years. The results suggest that a significant price boom for Bitcoin could be on the horizon. Nearly half of the respondents expressed extreme optimism about Bitcoin's future, anticipating substantial annual appreciation that could propel the cryptocurrency to unprecedented levels. The poll results showed that 22.4% of participants expect a steady rise of 10% to 19% annually. Meanwhile, 18% are even more bullish, predicting an annual surge of 20% to 29%. A hopeful 10.8% of respondents anticipate a 30% to 39% increase each year. However, the majority, a whopping 48.8%, envision a staggering 40% annual appreciation for over a decade. This optimistic sentiment comes at a time when Bitcoin is experiencing a significant downturn, having extended its drop near $60,000. Bitcoin recently extended its decline to lows of $60,581 in the early trading session today, marking a more than one-month low and a roughly 6% drop. This decline reflects lower demand for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds and monetary policy concerns, particularly about the Federal Reserve's ability to quickly reduce interest rates from a two-decade high. Despite reaching an all-time high of $73,798 in mid-March, Bitcoin has lagged behind traditional investments like equities, bonds, and gold this quarter. However, as the crypto community keeps a close watch on Bitcoin's price movement in the short term, Saylor's poll reflects expectations for Bitcoin's growth over the next decade.

According to U.Today, Tom Lee of Fundstrat recently appeared on the 'Odds Lots' podcast to discuss his Bitcoin predictions. Lee highlighted the unique nature of Bitcoin as an asset class, emphasizing its cooperative value. He explained that those who contribute to the Bitcoin network benefit from it, a characteristic that sets it apart from other asset classes. Lee's firm first wrote about Bitcoin in 2017 when it was valued at around $1,000. Fundstrat published a white paper at the time, identifying two main variables that determine Bitcoin's price: the number of active wallets and the activity per wallet. Lee stated, 'At that time, we made a simple projection. We said that in five years, by 2022, if the number of wallets went up by 70%, and activity per wallet went up by 40%, Bitcoin would be $25,000 by 2022.' Lee also praised Bitcoin as an 'incredible technology,' noting its security and the fact that it has never been hacked in its 14-year existence. He added that 'Not a single entry on the Bitcoin ledger is fraudulent.' However, he also acknowledged that over 80% of Bitcoin price moves are still explained by activity per wallet. Fidelity's Jurian Timmer has suggested that the underwhelming growth of the Bitcoin network could be the reason why the cryptocurrency failed to record record highs in recent months. On Monday, Bitcoin slipped below the $60,000 level for the first time in more than a month, touching an intraday low of $59,863, according to CoinGecko data. Despite this, Lee remains optimistic about Bitcoin's future, having reiterated his previous price target of $150,000 back in June.
