exit

The Hyper Foundation announced that it will provide approximately $10 million in grants to developers affected by the USDH exit, to cover migration costs and support an orderly transition of the ecosystem. This round of funding will be allocated to affected HIP-1 spot deployers, HIP-3 perpetual contract deployers, HyperEVM protocol, USDH:USDC cross-chain bridge, and other ecosystem participants.Among them, migration grants are aimed at teams migrating USDH-related markets or deployments to USDC; while exit grants are for projects that choose to terminate USDH-related businesses, with amounts lower than equivalent migration plans, to encourage a smooth conclusion of the ecosystem. HIP-1 and HIP-3 grants are based on auction deployment cost estimates, while HyperEVM grants are assessed based on the scale of USDH TVL affected. All beneficiaries must complete migration or business closure by the end of July.On the user side, USDH holders need to operate according to the guidelines of each protocol and can complete the exchange to USDC through the spot market or HyperEVM path. The official has provided support for asset conversion with no fees or spot trading channels. The Hyper Foundation also stated that the USDH migration is progressing smoothly, thanks to the active cooperation of developers and the community, and expressed gratitude to the relevant builders.

According to a report by Reuters, Binance's head for Europe and the UK, Gillian Lynch, stated that despite setbacks in its attempt to apply for a European Union cryptocurrency operating license in Greece, Binance still plans to remain in the EU and will seek to obtain local operating permits again.Lynch said, "Binance will not leave Europe." She mentioned that Binance may just need to obtain authorization through different paths, and if not in Greece, the company will look for other alternatives. Binance currently has only one week left before its existing European operating license expires, and if it cannot obtain a new license, it may need to gradually shut down its EU operations.Two informed sources said that Binance had communicated with regulators in Ireland, Latvia, and Greece, but faced resistance in all three countries. The sources indicated that regulatory officials were concerned about Binance's past penalties related to money laundering issues, its complex international structure, and what they perceive as a risk-seeking culture. Lynch stated that Binance is unclear why it was not approved, as it previously believed that the Greek regulators planned to issue licenses.She also mentioned that Binance has contacted four or five regulatory agencies but only submitted a formal application to Greece. Regarding Binance's past issues, Lynch stated that the company has invested in compliance and internal controls, hiring about 1,500 compliance personnel, and claimed that there are no unresolved issues with its license application.

Trader Eugene stated on June 7 that he has exited the cryptocurrency market and turned to the stock sector, believing that stocks are more attractive at the research level and that there are significantly more trading and investment opportunities. Eugene indicated that given the current trend of the cryptocurrency market, this shift may be lasting, and he will monitor the cryptocurrency market from a distance in the future but will no longer participate unless an extremely attractive risk-reward opportunity arises, which he does not see happening in the short term.Regarding Strategy (MSTR) and Saylor, Eugene believes this is the beginning of the entire collapse, questioning whether Saylor has really sold more BTC than last week, and even if he has, it is merely delaying the issue. He stated that before MSTR decouples from BTC, BTC is untouchable from a bullish perspective, and he mentioned that he does not know where the bottom is but is no longer attempting to catch the bottom.

On-chain detective ZachXBT posted questioning BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes for frequently changing his views and selling tokens in a short period, asking how much exit liquidity he had received from followers in the past few days.ZachXBT pointed out that before WLD, Arthur Hayes had expressed bullish views on tokens such as NEAR, HYPE, and ZEC, and in his latest operation, after publicly expressing a strong bullish stance on Worldcoin (WLD) multiple times and giving a target far above the current price, he chose to liquidate his position in a short time.In response, Arthur Hayes stated that he was simply selling assets at market prices to buyers willing to take over according to his trading targets, and if the price continued to rise, outsiders would think his sale was a wrong decision, "this time it just happened to be a correct judgment."Subsequently, ZachXBT posted again, sharing Arthur Hayes's previous bullish comments on WLD and questioning his rapid exit from the position after loudly promoting it, sparking discussions in the community about the influence of opinion leaders on the market and the issue of "exit liquidity."Previously, Arthur Hayes had stated that he had liquidated his WLD position, claiming that the price trend was "not right," and announced his exit from that position.

According to BBX data, yesterday the intertwining news of traditional finance's entry into cryptocurrency and corporate reserve exits presented the following core dynamics:SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: $SOFI) announced through a BusinessWire official press release that its SoFiUSD stablecoin has officially opened to approximately 14.7 million members within the SoFi app, supporting buying, selling, holding, and conversion, becoming the first national bank in U.S. history to embed its own stablecoin within a banking app (the issuer is SoFi Bank, N.A., regulated by the OCC). SoFiUSD (on-chain code SOFID) is pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar and can be used on the Ethereum and Solana networks, with reserves backed by liquid assets and subject to regular independent CPA audits; in the coming weeks, tokenized deposits and 24/7 cross-border transfer functions will be launched, and an institutional trading channel will be opened in collaboration with Bullish exchange. SoFi CEO Anthony Noto stated, "Users no longer have to choose between blockchain technology and regulated bank products." The company's Q1 2026 crypto trading revenue reached $121.6 million, with a net income of approximately $852,000 after costs; SoFiUSD is not insured by FDIC or SIPC, does not constitute legal tender, and on-chain transactions are generally irreversible.Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: $COIN) and the prediction market platform Kalshi announced that the two platforms have received approval from the CFTC to launch cryptocurrency perpetual contract products for U.S. customers, becoming the first exchanges approved to offer such products within the U.S.; this move by the CFTC officially brings perpetual contracts from a regulatory gray area into the federal derivatives legal framework, and a policy statement was released simultaneously, indicating that future applications for perpetual contracts in other asset classes will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. In 2025, the global trading volume of cryptocurrency perpetual contracts reached $61.7 trillion (up 29% year-on-year, according to CryptoQuant data), and the U.S. previously lacked regulated domestic trading venues. This approval is expected to drive a significant amount of institutional and retail funds back from offshore platforms to compliant channels in the U.S., with several other exchanges expected to follow suit with applications.Sequans Communications S.A. (NASDAQ: $SQNS) CEO Georges Karam clearly announced during the recent Q1 2026 earnings call that the company has completely terminated its previously initiated Bitcoin treasury reserve strategy. The company began its cryptocurrency layout in June 2025, raising approximately $384 million through debt and equity financing, and quickly accumulated 3,000 BTC by the end of July 2025; however, the crypto market crash in October 2025 triggered the company to deleverage, selling 970 BTC in November 2025 and another 1,025 BTC in Q1 2026; as of now, it holds approximately 658 BTC (completely debt-free, worth about $46.8 million), and the company stated it will gradually liquidate over time, with all funds returning to its core chip business. Sequans is an IoT/5G semiconductor company, and this case is one of the most significant "failed corporate Bitcoin reserve strategy cases" in 2026.

According to BBX data, yesterday there was a structural differentiation in the Bitcoin treasury strategies of globally listed companies and large asset management entities, with the core dynamics as follows:Cardone Capital increases holdings on dips: Grant Cardone, CEO of the well-established American real estate investment and asset management giant Cardone Capital, officially posted on social platform X announcing that the company has increased its holdings by 130 BTC during the recent market correction. He emphasized that as a strategic asset reserve against inflation, the company will continue to utilize cash flow to allocate Bitcoin spot on dips.Sequans liquidates 80% of holdings to repay debts: Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: $SQNS) released an official announcement on Thursday, stating that it has successfully redeemed all debts related to its Bitcoin treasury by liquidating approximately 80% of its Bitcoin holdings, marking its official exit from the previous cryptocurrency asset treasury strategy. Currently, the company holds only 658 BTC and is completely debt-free, with future focus shifting back to its core business in IoT and cellular semiconductors.

According to Cointelegraph, the crypto analysis platform Swissblock stated that Bitcoin is sliding into a high-risk environment due to continuous selling by institutions. Its Bitcoin risk index is currently at 33 points, in the high-risk zone. Swissblock pointed out that every time the risk index signals a structural selling pressure overwhelming the market, it is backed by institutions selling off.Glassnode reported that since May 7, the U.S. Bitcoin ETF has recorded net outflows almost every trading day, with continuous institutional selling signals increasing pressure on the supply side for more than two weeks, while demand has not offset this. CoinEx chief analyst Jeff Ko stated that over the past two weeks, more than $2 billion has flowed out of spot ETFs, and institutional risk appetite remains in a marginally sensitive state. News of the U.S. launching new strikes against Iran on Tuesday morning further intensified the risk, causing Bitcoin to drop by 1%, falling from $77,000 to below $76,500.

According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi (@ai_9684xtpa), a certain whale built a position of 3,845 ETH at $2,074 in the early morning, worth $7.97 million. Previously, this whale had built a position of 4,386 ETH at $2,377 on May 5, and sold at $2,314, incurring a loss of $277,000.

According to analyst Alicharts, in the past two months, about 60 whale addresses holding at least 10,000 ETH have completely liquidated their positions. Alicharts states that when different entities holding millions of dollars in positions exit the network within such a short time frame, it usually indicates profit-taking and asset reallocation by institutions. These big players are taking advantage of recent liquidity to reduce risk, reflecting a clear lack of confidence in the mid-term outlook. Furthermore, the decrease in the number of giant whales aligns perfectly with the recent influx of large amounts of funds into exchanges. Data shows that the path of least resistance in the short term will still be downward. Therefore, attention needs to be paid to the support at $2,000 for Ethereum.

The encrypted messaging app Signal stated that if Canada's Bill C-22 is officially passed and requires platforms to establish "lawful access" monitoring capabilities, the company may choose to exit the Canadian market rather than weaken end-to-end encryption. Signal's Vice President of Strategy and Global Affairs, Udbhav Tiwari, indicated that the bill could force communication services to create technical backdoors, thereby undermining encryption security and making private communications more susceptible to exploitation by hackers and foreign attackers.Bill C-22 was introduced in March 2026 as part of a new round of regulatory measures in Canada, requiring electronic service providers to establish law enforcement monitoring capabilities and retain certain user metadata for up to a year to assist in investigations of crimes such as terrorism and child exploitation. Critics argue that the bill is similar to the EU's previously controversial "chat monitoring" proposal, which could threaten end-to-end encryption and user privacy. Canadian Conservative MP Jacob Mantle stated that nearly all Canadian MPs use Signal precisely because of its privacy and security features, yet the bill could grant the government the ability to read private messages.Tiwari stated, "Signal would rather exit Canada than violate the privacy commitments made to users." In addition to Signal, the VPN provider Windscribe also indicated that if the bill passes in its current form, the company may follow Signal in withdrawing from the Canadian market. Windscribe claimed that the bill could force VPN services to log data that could identify users, violating its core privacy principles.

As the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, Anchorage Digital has stated that it will reduce its involvement in the Global Dollar (USDG) stablecoin alliance and will no longer play a more prominent role as it did previously. Members of the alliance include institutions such as Robinhood, Kraken, Galaxy Digital, OKX, and Visa Inc.Nathan McCauley, co-founder and CEO of Anchorage, stated that the company will adopt "a higher degree of neutrality" in the stablecoin issuance space in the future, avoiding targeted support for any single stablecoin to accommodate its expansion as a white-label issuance and custody platform. He pointed out that as more institutions seek to issue stablecoins through Anchorage (with about 20 potential partners currently), the company needs to reassess its incentive structures and alignment of interests.Currently, USDG is issued by Paxos Digital Singapore and regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, with a circulation size of approximately $3 billion. Market participants generally believe that stablecoin issuance is entering a new phase of parallel development among multiple institutions and networks.

Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi stated that retail investors have significantly exited the current crypto market, and institutions are becoming the market bottom and supporting Bitcoin prices. He pointed out that Bitcoin is being viewed as a mature asset with sustained growth potential over the next 15 to 20 years, while altcoins need to have a clear narrative to attract retail attention again.He also mentioned that the core of the crypto industry still revolves around money and financial scenarios, with areas such as DeFi, stablecoins, exchanges, and RWA having strong user stickiness. With the involvement of AI technology, future agents may take on intermediary roles in trading, thereby enhancing overall adoption, and low-risk preference users may become the main source of incremental growth.

Curve Finance officially announced that it is introducing a bad debt recovery mechanism based on on-chain market mechanisms, allowing CRV-affected users in certain lending markets with bad debts to choose different recovery strategies: directly selling their claims to exit, continuing to hold and wait for potential recovery, or providing liquidity to earn fees and incentives. The core of this mechanism is to establish a trading pool between crvUSD and the tokens of the affected claims, allowing bad debt claims to be priced in the market and creating liquidity, thereby providing users with an immediate exit channel instead of relying solely on the final liquidation results.It is reported that after the cryptocurrency market crash in October last year, some lending markets under Curve Finance experienced bad debt issues, with various liquidity pools being impacted by severe price fluctuations and liquidity contraction, leading to some deposit users facing withdrawal restrictions and asset losses.Curve stated that the recovery mechanism will not eliminate losses or guarantee recovery, but will gradually reflect risks and recovery expectations through a market-oriented approach. Additionally, if the governance layer distributes rewards through the veCRV incentive mechanism, it will help enhance liquidity depth, improve exit conditions, and strengthen market pricing efficiency.

The crypto fund C1 Fund announced a partial exit from its investment in Ripple, achieving approximately 150% returns in less than four months, but has not disclosed the amount of profit.

When discussing how to face challenges, He Yi summarized two points: first, the mutual trust between Binance and its users; second, having great employees is crucial.Regarding changes in the management structure, He Yi pointed out that CZ is the founder and the foundation, but he has currently stepped back from management.
