According to CNBC, GMO co-founder and billionaire investor Jeremy Grantham has once again expressed skepticism about Bitcoin, calling it a "useless speculative asset" and believing it may eventually lose market relevance over time.Grantham stated that Bitcoin will not end with a sudden zeroing out or a dramatic collapse, but is more likely to gradually fade from the market's view over the next few years or even decades. "It will slowly disappear, not with a bang, but quietly."He believes that Bitcoin lacks intrinsic value and has not proven itself to be a reliable store of value. Grantham pointed out that even during periods of better macroeconomic performance, Bitcoin's price has still experienced significant pullbacks, making it difficult to be regarded as a stable wealth preservation asset.In contrast, he mentioned that while gold has also undergone price adjustments, it has maintained a relatively robust long-term performance overall.Additionally, Grantham questioned the practical application value of Bitcoin, arguing that it is not widely used for everyday payments or commercial transactions, thus lacking broad utility in the real world.

According to a report by The Information, the confidential IPO registration draft submitted by OpenAI shows that as of the end of March 2026, OpenAI's balance sheet exhibits "light asset" characteristics, with zero debt on the books and capital expenditures of only $46 million in the first quarter. However, in reality, the company has placed substantial infrastructure expenditures off the books, with future procurement commitments in chips, energy, and data centers reaching up to $665 billion. Financial data indicates that OpenAI's actual net loss in the first quarter was approximately $8.5 billion, with revenue costs amounting to $3.5 billion.Additionally, OpenAI demonstrates a very high characteristic of related-party funding cycles. In the first quarter, 72% of its revenue costs and 45% of total expenditures flowed to related parties (expected to be primarily Microsoft), and it directly used $488 million in equity to settle part of its computing power bills. In the data center joint venture project within its consolidated financial statements, nearly $5 billion in book losses is accounted for as belonging to external partners. The documents also reveal that its main competitor, Anthropic, is similarly engaging in large-scale off-balance-sheet expansion, including $4.5 billion in data center service commitments and $35 billion in chip leasing orders.

According to BBX data, over the weekend, global publicly listed entities and major financial institutions in the U.S. disclosed the latest real accounts and strategic trends regarding Bitcoin spot accumulation, mining production liquidity management, and cross-border investments in Web3 infrastructure. The core updates are as follows:Grant Cardone, CEO of the leading U.S. real estate investment company Cardone Capital and billionaire, publicly announced on social platform X yesterday that the company has recently completed direct allocations of digital assets in the secondary market, increasing its holdings by 282 Bitcoins during the dip, demonstrating a strong consensus among traditional real estate tycoons on the hedging properties of crypto assets.Nasdaq-listed Bitcoin mining company Bitdeer Technologies Group (NASDAQ: $BTDR) officially announced the latest weekly Bitcoin production and liquidity settlement accounts on platform X. As of the week ending June 19, its net Bitcoin mining output was 218.1 BTC, and it sold 218.1 BTC on the open market, resulting in a net addition of 0 BTC to its treasury. The company reiterated its firm commitment to maintaining a "zero Bitcoin position, full liquidation and monetization" strategy in fiat currency operations to ensure efficient cash flow in its main business.Nasdaq-listed company NewGen, Inc. (NASDAQ: $NWGN) announced a strategic investment of $4 million in the decentralized prediction market platform K25.ai, helping it complete a total of $10 million in Pre-A round financing. It is reported that after this round of financing, K25.ai's post-investment valuation has reached $100 million, and NewGen is expected to hold a 10% stake in the platform, accelerating its ecological positioning in the crypto prediction narrative.

Pioneer of crypto punk Adam Back stated that the market's negative view on Strategy and its preferred stock STRC lacks basis, as what Strategy is essentially doing is selling Bitcoin to pay dividends, without changing its Bitcoin reserve strategy, and is precisely "proving that it is possible to pay returns to investors through Bitcoin while reducing debt ratios."Adam Back further pointed out that Strategy is demonstrating a new financial model to the market, where Bitcoin may become an alternative asset to cash for corporate asset management and capital operations in the future, while the FUD sentiment surrounding MSTR and STRC is exaggerated. Strategy will not "go to zero," and its long-term value lies in continuously holding Bitcoin and promoting the market's understanding of Bitcoin's monetary properties.

In response to Ethereum core developer Trent Van Epps' lengthy article pointing out that Ethereum is entering a critical institutional turning point, including legitimacy distribution, governance structure evolution, and potential protocol funding crises, Tom Lee, chairman of the Ethereum treasury company Bitmine, responded by stating that the possibility of such a crisis occurring in Ethereum is zero, and wrote "Funding secured."Data shows that Bitmine has been increasing its holdings in Ethereum weekly, with the total holdings now exceeding 5.62 million coins.

Latest data shows that the circulation of USDD is approximately $1.44 billion, with a TVL exceeding $2 billion, and the collateralization rate maintained at a healthy level of 154.65% by the end of May. The decentralized stablecoin USDD, with its Peg Stability Module (PSM) offering 1:1 USDT/USDC zero-slippage instant exchange as a core advantage, has become a long-term favorable competitor in the stablecoin sector. Relying on the significant capital efficiency improvement brought by "no discount on funds," the PSM mechanism of USDD thoroughly addresses the slippage pain points in traditional exchanges, providing certainty for large transactions and volatile markets, and deeply integrating zero-slippage exchanges with stablecoin yield distribution, unlimited participation, flexible access without lock-up, and long-term sustainable operations.In a market where the total market capitalization of stablecoins exceeds $315 billion, USDD, through protocol layer innovation and transparent multi-chain layout, offers more efficient and robust capital management solutions for institutions, traders, and long-term holders, effectively reducing trading friction and market risk.

According to @ETH_Daily, the current exit queue for Ethereum staking is basically zero. If you apply to exit now, it can be completed in a few minutes without waiting in line. Meanwhile, nearly 3 million ETH are piled up in the staking entry queue, and applicants need to wait about 50 days to start staking. This indicates that stakers are not withdrawing; instead, more funds are choosing to lock in long-term and participate in staking, reflecting an increasing long-term confidence in Ethereum as an income-generating asset.

According to The Block, Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin stated that Ethereum is expected to evolve into a protocol fully based on zero-knowledge proofs (ZK Proof) within the next 3 to 5 years, which will not only optimize the main chain but also enhance Ethereum's compatibility with Layer 2.Joseph Lubin mentioned that he supports the "Rollup-centric roadmap," believing that by strengthening Layer 1, introducing the "Lean Ethereum" initiative, and promoting ZK proofs, the foundational layer of Ethereum can be significantly upgraded. Lean Ethereum aims to achieve over 10,000 transactions per second while maintaining a high level of decentralization on the mainnet, and supports privacy and quantum-resistant solutions.Regarding Layer 2, Joseph Lubin pointed out that ZK technology has already achieved real-time proofs in some L2 networks and plans to extend this capability to Layer 1, ultimately transitioning to a fully ZK foundational protocol supported by multiple provers. For example, projects like the Linea chain developed by Consensys and Gnosis are utilizing zero-knowledge proofs to achieve cross-network synchronized transactions, potentially eliminating the need for bridging and unifying fragmented liquidity.Joseph Lubin emphasized that the initial "differentiation phase" of the Rollup roadmap aims to provide experimental space for Layer 2 technologies. Although it may temporarily disperse liquidity, it lays the groundwork for Ethereum's future limitless scalability and technological iteration. He believes that some L2 technologies will become systemically important components, and this exploratory process is necessary.Additionally, Joseph Lubin responded to rumors regarding recent personnel changes at the Ethereum Foundation (EF) and the "second foundation," stating that there will not be a second foundation. The EF will continue to focus on core protocol development, usability and scalability, as well as institutional collaboration, while supporting at least three independent teams to spin off from the EF, focusing on protocol, user experience, and institutional expansion efforts.

According to BBX data, last week the expansion of institutional crypto infrastructure and the differentiation of cash flow management models for mining companies were implemented simultaneously. The core dynamics are as follows:Morgan Stanley (NYSE: $MS) Wealth Management Department and Galaxy Digital Inc. (NASDAQ: $GLXY) officially announced a recommended cooperation agreement on June 5: allowing Morgan Stanley's qualified high-net-worth clients to lend directly held BTC, ETH, or SOL to Galaxy Digital. After Galaxy, as an Authorized Participant (AP), completes the creation of physical shares, the corresponding spot crypto ETP shares (including Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust, NYSE Arca: $MSBT) will be directly transferred to the client's brokerage account; the converted ETP shares can be used as collateral for account financing. Key parameters: Galaxy Digital has reduced the minimum trading threshold for Morgan Stanley's recommended clients from $25 million to $5 million, significantly expanding the coverage of qualified high-net-worth clients; traditional similar institutional trades usually take more than four weeks to complete, while the new mechanism can shorten the entire process by up to 75%. The legal basis for this cooperation is the SEC's approval of the physical conversion ETF mechanism for crypto assets in July 2025, allowing direct physical conversion between directly held crypto assets and spot crypto ETFs, with Morgan Stanley's $MSBT being one of the first beneficiary products.Bitdeer Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: $BTDR) reported that as of the week of June 5, 2026, Bitcoin mining output was 205.3 BTC, with the same amount sold, resulting in a net holding of 0 BTC, maintaining a current BTC position of zero, continuing the "output equals sale" cash flow management strategy; the proceeds from sales are used to support the R&D of its SEALMINER mining hardware product line and the expansion of hash power hosting services. Bitdeer's zero holding model sharply contrasts with mining companies like CleanSpark, Inc. (NASDAQ: $CLSK) (holding approximately 13,561 BTC) and MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: $MARA) (holding approximately 35,303 BTC), which continue to accumulate Bitcoin, representing another financially rational path for mining companies during the BTC price downturn cycle—exchanging immediate liquidity for stable operational cash flow, avoiding the impact of single asset price fluctuations on the balance sheet.

The Bitcoin mining company Bitdeer, listed on NASDAQ, released the latest Bitcoin holdings data on the X platform. As of the week ending June 5, its Bitcoin mining output was 205.3 BTC, but it sold 205.3 BTC during the same period, resulting in a net increase of 0 BTC, and currently maintains a zero Bitcoin holding.

ZeroTier CEO Andrew Gault stated that the potential threat of quantum computing to the Bitcoin industry may not be limited to the security of wallet private keys; encrypted communication and authentication data between institutions also face long-term risks.

According to Jinshi reports, Federal Reserve official Musalem stated that the current possibility of the Federal Reserve considering an interest rate hike is greater than zero.

The Sui mainnet officially launched the protocol-level stablecoin zero Gas transfer feature on May 20, supporting 7 types of assets including USDC, allowing users to complete transfers for free without holding SUI.In addition, the Premium Exchange incubated by NAVI Protocol is expected to officially go live on May 26 with its new system. These two developments optimize the trading experience from both the underlying protocol and application layer, further lowering the user entry threshold and promoting the development of the Sui ecosystem.

According to The Block, the Ethereum Layer 2 project Zero Network announced that it will officially shut down soon, just about 1.5 years after its launch. Zero Network was launched by the Zerion team in November 2024, positioned as the first EVM-compatible gas-free Rollup, aimed at lowering user barriers and promoting mainstream adoption.The team stated that they will focus resources on Zerion's API and wallet business. Users need to bridge out their NFTs, ETH, and other tokens from the Zero Network by the end of July, as the bridging deposit function has currently been suspended.

According to BBX data, yesterday the layout of traditional payment institutions in the cryptocurrency infrastructure showed divergence, with institutions having clear differences in their views on ETH and the altcoin sector. The core dynamics are as follows:Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE: $MA) signed an acquisition agreement for the UK stablecoin infrastructure company BVNK on March 17 for a maximum of $1.8 billion (including $300 million in performance-based payments), which directly led Mastercard to abandon its previously pursued strategic investment plan in Zerohash (a privately held company). According to CoinDesk on May 19, Mastercard exited negotiations with Zerohash after the completion of the BVNK acquisition, and Zerohash is currently seeking to initiate a new financing round with a valuation of over $1.5 billion (higher than the $1 billion valuation established during the D-2 round of financing of $104 million in September 2025); the strategic logic behind Mastercard's acquisition of BVNK is that BVNK has a stablecoin payment infrastructure covering over 130 countries and a difficult-to-replicate combination of multi-country payment licenses; Mastercard's Chief Product Officer Jorn Lambert stated that the goal is to integrate stablecoins into the core network of Mastercard Move cross-border payments, rather than treating them as a peripheral experiment.JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: $JPM) analysts cited by CoinDesk on May 19 released the latest research report indicating that in the current market environment, Ethereum and the broader altcoin sector will continue to lag behind Bitcoin, primarily due to three structural weaknesses: weak network activity, stagnation in DeFi ecosystem growth (Solana's TVL has dropped from a peak of $13.1 billion in 2025 to about $5.5 billion), and limited real-world adoption scenarios; analysts believe that for the altcoin sector to catch up with Bitcoin's performance, a "significant network activity explosion" is a prerequisite, and this condition currently lacks visible short-term catalysts.
