⚠️ Phishing alert for Ledger users! Scammers are sending physical letters pretending to be from Ledger, urging users to complete a “critical security update.” 📩 The letters look legit — with Ledger branding, support numbers, and even a QR code. ❗️Inside…
Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo, revealed that scammers tried to trick him via traditional mail. 📩
🥷 They posed as Ledger and sent a fake hardware wallet, claiming it was for a "security check" on his crypto wallet.
📦 Inside was a malicious device designed to steal private keys and gain access to funds.
⚠️ Reminder: Never trust unsolicited hardware wallets — especially those claiming to be replacements or upgrades. Always verify directly with the company.

🇺🇸 Donald Trump announced a delay in the 50% tariffs on all EU imports until July
The move is seen as a temporary de-escalation in trade tensions between the U.S. and Europe.
🚀Following the news, Bitcoin surged back to $110,000. However, technical indicators show strong resistance on the hourly chart, suggesting the rally may face obstacles. 👀

🕵️♂️ Analysts believe that by 2045, companies holding Bitcoin reserves will control 50% of the total BTC supply.
Strategy (former MicroStrategy) is expected to maintain its lead, holding half of all corporate Bitcoin — potentially making Michael Saylor's firm the most valuable in history.💰
Experts also note that half of the world’s capital is seeking a better store of value. This has driven a significant shift over the past two years from fiat currencies to hard assets like gold and Bitcoin. 🧐

🇺🇸 Major U.S. financial groups, including the American Bankers Association and SIFMA, are urging the SEC to scrap the rule requiring public companies to disclose cyber incidents within 4 days — (petition).
They argue the rule harms investigations, breaches confidentiality, confuses investors, and even helps hackers pressure companies. 🧐
Case in point: Coinbase refused to pay a $20M ransom after a client data breach — disclosure rules, they say, made the situation worse. 🤷

🚨 A crypto investor lost $2.6M in stablecoins after falling for two phishing scams — just three hours apart!
🥷The attacker used a sneaky trick called a zero-value transfer: a fake transaction of $0 that appears in your wallet history, making the scammer’s address look familiar.
Later, the victim mistakenly sent real funds to this "trusted" address — twice. 🙀
This advanced address poisoning tactic is on the rise. Over 270M attempts were tracked across Ethereum and BNB Chain, with over $83M in stolen funds. 💵
👉 Always double-check full wallet addresses — partial matches can be deadly.

🔎 Analysts at Sentora (formerly IntoTheBlock) highlight a key difference in this Bitcoin cycle compared to previous ones.
Traditionally, long-term holders accumulate during bear markets and distribute during bull runs, forming smooth cup-shaped patterns. 📊☕️
This time, however, the distribution started earlier, progressed slower, with interruptions — lacking the usual rhythm.
This irregular behavior signals growing uncertainty, even among seasoned Bitcoin veterans, about where exactly we are in the market cycle. 🧐

🇯🇵📉 Japan’s bond market crisis may be behind Bitcoin’s new ATH of $112K, says Bitwise.
💰 Yields on 30-year Japanese bonds spiked to 3.185% — a record high — raising fears over Japan’s soaring debt (250% of GDP) and potential default.
As trust in traditional assets weakens, institutional investors are turning to Bitcoin as a hedge against sovereign risk. 🛡
BTC could hit $200K if ETF inflows and corporate accumulation continue. 📈

🐂 Bullish signal from CryptoQuant: Long-term Bitcoin holders are showing strong confidence.
Spending by long-term holders has dropped to levels not seen since Sept 2024, while their wallets have accumulated 300,000 BTC in just the past 20 days. 💰💪
This trend signals reduced selling pressure and growing conviction among seasoned investors — a classic precursor to potential upward price momentum. 🚀

🔄 Investors are redistributing profits from Bitcoin’s $112K ATH into altcoins.
🔍 On-chain data shows a surge in new wallet creation for several tokens — a classic sign of growing retail and whale interest:
👉 $WETH (Wrapped Ethereum)
👉 $GT (Gatechain)
👉 $MKR (Maker)
This shift suggests rising momentum in the altcoin market as capital flows from BTC into promising projects. 📈

⚠️ Google researchers warn: Quantum computers could break Bitcoin much sooner than expected. 🫨
New findings show cracking RSA encryption needs 20x fewer qubits than previously thought — under 1 million, instead of 20 million. This could reduce the time to hack encryption to just a few days. ⏱️🤔
Current machines like IBM’s Condor (1,121 qubits) aren’t there yet — but the pace of progress is raising alarms. The quantum threat to crypto security is no longer distant sci-fi. 🧬🧠

OTC Bitcoin supply drying up fast — could hit zero by July 2026 if current trends continue. 🙀
Since Sept 2021, available BTC on OTC desks has dropped from 486K to just 115K — a 4.2x decrease. 📉
At the current outflow rate of ~276 BTC/day, the remaining supply could be fully drained within ~14 months. 🧮⏳
This signals growing institutional demand and shrinking liquid supply — a potential catalyst for future price surges. 🔥

If successful, this would mark a historic moment for the stablecoin industry and further blur the line between TradFi and crypto. 🏛

🇺🇸 U.S. May Build a True Strategic Bitcoin Reserve!
Senator Cynthia Lummis plans to reintroduce a bill next week to buy 1,000,000 BTC to U.S. national reserves. 💰
According to Bloomberg, Donald Trump supports the idea of forming a strategic Bitcoin reserve.
📊 The U.S. government currently holds 200,000 BTC ($22B), but only 86,000 BTC is realistically usable — the rest is tied to the 2016 Bitfinex hack and may be returned to the exchange via court ruling.

🇸🇻 El Salvador Buys More Bitcoin, Defying IMF Warnings
Despite IMF pressure, El Salvador just added more BTC to its reserves — now totaling nearly 6,200 BTC ($674M).
📉 The IMF, tied to a $1.4B loan deal, urged the country to halt crypto accumulation and wind down its Chivo wallet operations.
Yet the Bitcoin Office — operating outside the fiscal sector — continues daily purchases, technically staying within loan rules. 💰

Adam Back: Selling BTC is like playing against the house in a bad-rate casino 🎰
Trying to time Bitcoin dips is a losing game — the trend is upward, and volatility is the price of growth. 🚀
📈 Despite massive corrections (80%+), BTC has delivered +39,000% returns over the past decade.
🔒 Long-term holding beats short-term trading — most who try to "play" the volatility end up losing.
🔥 The current bull run is driven by institutional demand: public companies, sovereign funds, and even governments.

🇺🇸 Marathon Digital urges U.S. to mine Bitcoin for reserves
Marathon CEO Fred Thiel says the idea of a U.S. strategic BTC reserve is meaningless unless there's a way to actively fill it.

🏢 Marathon, the largest U.S. mining firm, holds 48,237 BTC ($5.3B) and could play a key role in this national crypto strategy.
