Strategy and Bitmine lead the pack with massive unrealized losses.

Capital rotation into artificial intelligence may have played a bigger role in Bitcoin’s latest selloff than most market watchers initially assumed.

SBI Holdings Chair Yoshitaka Kitao echoed that view, pointing to the upcoming IPOs of SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI a

Dogecoin is trading below $0.09 at the time of writing, which places it more than 88% from its May 2021 all-time high of $0.74, and overlooked in a market that has spent most of 2026 rotating around Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP.  However, crypto analyst Javon Marks sees something in DOGE’s long-term chart that most traders are missing: a repeating pattern of increasing alt season performances that, if it holds, points to a target above $20 for the meme coin.

Bitcoin price performance in June has gotten off to a rocky start, with prices now down 50% from the market’s all-time high. In the last week alone, the premier cryptocurrency has declined by 16%, forcing the price to around $60,000 for the first time since February.  Notably, the heavy market loss has coincided with the dominant Bitcoin treasury Strategy offloading $2.5 million in BTC to manage its balance sheet, despite initial chants of “never sell”.
