Sharplink purchased another 10,000 ETH, bringing its total holdings to 886,725 ETH as it builds one of the largest corporate ether treasuries. The company also repurchased more than 2.1 million shares, linking its capital strategy to growth in ETH per share. Sharplink is tying share buybacks to its ETH treasury as part of a long-term capital plan.

Crypto ETF flows weakened sharply on Wednesday, June 24, as bitcoin ETFs logged a fifth straight day of net outflows totaling $469.08 million, the largest since June 2. Ether ETFs also stayed negative. XRP ETFs were the only category to attract fresh inflows, while BlackRock’s IBIT extended its losses with more than $593 million of outflows over three trading days.

Atlas plans to launch USAFi in Q3 2026 under Dubai’s VARA framework, positioning it as a regulated permissionless digital security backed by a Nasdaq-listed ETF. The initiative marks economist Nouriel Roubini’s first step into digital assets after years as one of crypto’s most vocal critics. Atlas says the token will be supported by Nasdaq-listed USAF reserves and is intended to offer DeFi access while helping preserve value.

DWF Labs says more than $31 billion in real-world assets have moved onchain, but most of that capital remains inactive. In a report from DWF Labs Research, the firm estimates that less than 10% of tokenized RWAs are active in DeFi. It argues the next phase of tokenization will favor platforms that make these assets liquid, tradable, and usable inside DeFi.

Crypto ETF flows were mixed in the holiday-shortened week ending June 19, as bitcoin funds logged $226.8 million of net outflows and ether ETFs posted a $10 million outflow. Altcoin products drew net inflows, with a combined $46 million added to HYPE, XRP, and solana ETFs. HYPE ETFs led those gains with $27.9 million in weekly inflows.

JPMorgan analysts say bitcoin has traded below its estimated production cost for five straight months, leaving about 20% of miners operating at a loss. Publicly listed miners sold more than 32,000 BTC in the first quarter to fund operations. JPMorgan estimates production cost at about $78,000 per coin, versus bitcoin trading near $63,000. The bank expects volatility in mining metrics to persist until bitcoin rises above $78K or some miners exit.

Yield Basis said deposits into its new Hybrid Vaults rose more than 120% in under two weeks, pointing to demand for yield strategies that preserve crypto exposure. The protocol is aimed at a long-standing DeFi issue: liquidity providers can underperform simple holders during sharp price moves. Curve Finance and Yield Basis founder Michael Egorov said interest is rising in approaches that let investors earn yield or access liquidity without fully exiting positions.

Crypto ETF flows turned broadly positive on Tuesday, June 16, with bitcoin, ether, HYPE, XRP and solana ETFs all posting net inflows. The across-the-board gains marked a rare “all-green” session after weeks of choppier flows. The move suggested investors are beginning to rebuild exposure, though demand remained measured.

Wintermute said bitcoin’s rebound was helped by a U.S. inflation reading that met expectations and by easing geopolitical stress. The firm cautioned that a durable crypto-market bottom is still unconfirmed. It said a clearer return of inflows into ETFs, stablecoins and digital-asset treasury vehicles is needed for confidence in the move, according to its weekly market outlook.
