The Bitcoin price is precariously moving along the bottom of its 4-month bear flag. A crash looks likely. Can anything still save the day, or are we about to witness the last bottoming stage of this Bitcoin bear market?
The post Strategy keeps STRC payout unchanged amid push to maintain $100 share price appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Disclosure: The author of this story owns shares in Strategy (MSTR). Strategy, the world’s largest publicly traded corporate holder of bitcoin BTC$73,038.00, has maintained the 11.5% dividend rate on its perpetual preferred stock, Stretch (STRC), marking the fourth consecutive month without an increase. STRC has undergone seven dividend increases since its introduction in July 2025 with a 9% dividend rate. Strategy was able to hold the current rate this month after the stock’s volume-weighted average price (VWAP) reached $99.62, keeping shares close enough to their $100 par value, a key objective of the product’s design. Strategy markets STRC as a short-duration, high-yield savings alternative. The perpetual preferred stock pays monthly cash distributions, with the dividend rate reset each month to encourage trading near par value and minimize price volatility. Alth
The post Bitcoin Supply At Loss Jumps To 8.33M BTC As 580k Coins Bought Above $72.9k Turn Underwater appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin’s latest pullback has not simply erased dollar gains. It has flipped a large block of recent buyers into an immediate loss position, creating a fresh overhang that market participants cannot ignore. According to the Glassnode update, supply held at a loss jumped to 8.33 million BTC once the price contracted to $72,900. That is up from 7.75 million BTC when the market stood at $76,600. The delta between the two loss tallies implies roughly 580,000 BTC was accumulated inside the $72,900–$76,600 window. Now that the price has slipped below the lower end of that range, the entire cohort sits underwater. For holders who entered during what they likely considered a local bid, the reversal changes the calculus. They are no longer waiting for a profit. They are deciding when to cut the loss. Why the $72.9k–$76.6k Cluster Matters Cohorts that form aro

The post Bitcoin Stalls Near $73K as $1.26B IBIT Block Hits, Kraken Plans US Perps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin News A $1.26 billion off-exchange block sale of BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust executed on May 26 appears to reflect a single large investor seeking a rapid exit rather than a hedge-fund unwind. Roughly 29.21 million IBIT shares changed hands at $43.16, a $1.01 discount to the prevailing $44.17 market price — a 2.3% concession totaling about $29.5 million in execution cost. Research circulated this weekend noted that the magnitude of the discount points to a seller prioritizing speed and certainty over price. The transaction cleared through the FINRA/Nasdaq TRF Carteret venue, which institutions typically use for privately negotiated trades. Analysts pushed back on the theory that the trade represented a closed basis position. Such a strategy — long spot Bitcoin via ETF, short CME futures — would have lost meaningful expected return at a 2.3% execution hair
The post Low bitcoin-software correlation suggests a major move may be approaching appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin BTC$73,038.00 and software stocks moved almost in lockstep for much of the past five years, with BTC treated as a high-beta technology asset. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV) served as one of the best proxies for the software sector. That relationship, however, appears to have broken down. Since May 14, bitcoin and IGV have sharply diverged. IGV has gained roughly 12%, while bitcoin has fallen about 10%, marking one of the largest disconnects between the two assets in recent years. Bitcoin and IGV reached all-time highs in October 2025 before entering significant drawdowns, with bitcoin declining roughly 50%, while IGV around 37%. The software sector’s weakness was largely driven by growing fears that artificial intelligence would disrupt traditional software business models. The “SaaS apocalypse” narrative gained traction across markets, tr
The post Chainlink price: consolidation below 9.40 with selling appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The Chainlink price today is hovering around 9.00, below the main moving averages: a context of bearish pressure with fragile rebounds. As long as 9.15 and especially 9.40 are not reclaimed, selling prevails. In addition, Bitcoin dominance at 57.2% and Fear & Greed at 29 signal struggling altcoins. LINK/USDT — daily chart with candles, EMA20/EMA50 and volumes. Multi-timeframe context: main trend bearish, weak intraday, 15′ driven by sellers Daily (main direction): close 9.00 below EMA20 9.40, EMA50 9.47 and EMA200 11.14; RSI14 at 39.2 and MACD negative; Bollinger Bands with mid at 9.52 and lower band at 8.74. Active bearish picture: buyers, for now, have no leverage. 1H (confirmations/weakening): close 9.00 below EMA20 9.11, EMA50 9.14 and EMA200 9.24; RSI14 38.6; MACD just below zero; lower band at 8.98. Also here, momentum remains weak: rebounds towards 9.08–9.15 tend to fade quickly.
The post These Altcoins Explode by Double Digits as Bitcoin Price Dips Below $72,000: Market Watch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin failed to build on its weekend momentum and the sellers stepped in. Some altcoins, however, are exploding. The cryptocurrency market remained shaky over the past 24 hours. Bitcoin failed to build on its weekend recovery attempt and remained under pressure. Several altcoins, however, delivered explosive double-digit gains, which creates a rather mixed picture across the broader market. Bitcoin Price Struggles Near $72K Bitcoin’s price action has worsened since yesterday’s market update, when it was trying to stabilize close to $74,000. Instead of reclaiming that level, BTC reversed lower and is currently found at slightly below $73,000 after dipping to an intraday low near $72,500. The move shows that buyers continue struggling to regain control following last week’s volatility. Bitcoin remains very close to a key short-term support zone (arou
