According to BTCTreasuries, Bitcoin treasury company Capital B has disclosed that its shareholders' meeting has approved a large-scale financing plan, allowing for the raising of up to approximately $5.76 billion through the issuance of new shares, and refinancing of up to approximately $115.2 billion through the issuance of credit instruments, aimed at further increasing its Bitcoin holdings.Based on current prices, the potential scale of this financing could theoretically support the purchase of over 1.87 million BTC, demonstrating the company's continued high expansion in its crypto asset allocation strategy. This resolution implies that Capital B may continue to expand its Bitcoin holdings through a dual path of "equity + debt instruments" in the future, further strengthening its asset-liability structure and exposure to the crypto market.

Jiang Zhuoer stated that MicroStrategy (MSTR) currently holds approximately $55 billion in Bitcoin assets, corresponding to an annual dividend expenditure of about $1.7 billion for its STRC preferred shares, which theoretically could cover about 32 years of dividend needs by selling BTC. STRC is a preferred stock rather than a debt instrument, so there is no traditional pressure for mandatory repayment. From a financial structure perspective, MSTR does not face "forced liquidation-style leverage risk" or short-term repayment crises.However, the related statements reflect that market concerns about its long-term cash flow and the volatility of crypto assets are rising. Currently, STRC has shown significant discount fluctuations, and its refinancing ability is limited. In addition, MSTR has recently relied more on methods such as issuing common stock to increase its BTC holdings (which may dilute the per-share Bitcoin amount when mNAV is below 1), and this strategy is difficult to sustain in the long term.Jiang Zhuoer indicated that even if the actual scale of MSTR selling BTC to pay dividends is relatively small compared to the entire market, its symbolic significance may be more important, potentially putting pressure on market confidence and causing investors to reassess the possibility of "long-term passive selling of coins." The market's understanding of this structure is not consistent, and this cognitive difference itself may become an important factor influencing expectations and sentiment.

According to data from DefiLlama, Gate has seen a net inflow of over $478.16 million in the past 7 days and over $387.56 million in the past 30 days, consistently ranking first among global centralized exchanges.

According to Fortune, PayPal is shutting down its 10-year-old corporate venture capital arm, PayPal Ventures. It is reported that PayPal plans to sell some of its investment positions in the secondary market and has hired investment bank Jefferies to assist with potential transactions. Since its establishment in 2016, PayPal Ventures has invested in over 80 startups, including Plaid and Anchorage Digital, through three funds totaling more than $850 million.The reduction of the venture capital department comes after the new CEO Enrique Lores took over the company. To cope with fierce competition in the payment market and the previous decline in stock prices, PayPal is currently advancing a comprehensive organizational restructuring, planning to cut 20% of its workforce over the next two to three years to save at least $1.5 billion in costs, and refocusing its strategic emphasis on core foundational business and the application of AI technology.

According to CoinMarketCap data, the performance of the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization is as follows: Top five gainers: Aster (ASTER) up 16.96%, current price $0.7706; SPX6900 (SPX) up 15.13%, current price $0.4472; Ethena (ENA) up 9.45%, current price $0.09291; Venice Token (VVV) up 9.26%, current price $16.53; Uniswap (UNI) up 8.62%, current price $3.3; Lighter (LIT) up 8.44%, current price $1.84.

Wintermute released its weekly market report, stating that as of the week ending June 15, the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, along with CPI data, has boosted market risk appetite. Wintermute believes that the risk-reward ratio for Bitcoin at just over $60,000 is quite attractive; each sell-off eliminates weak holders, leaving a group with higher quality holdings and stronger conviction. However, this does not mean that a bottom has been established. Before the situation truly improves, it is not impossible to fall into the $50,000 range. Currently, the position structure has been somewhat cleared, and net selling pressure has eased. What really needs attention is the flow of funds, rather than prices or news headlines.The real turning point in the last cycle was the continuous growth of inflows into ETFs and stablecoins, and there are currently no signs of this. Therefore, blindly chasing any upward trend is futile. In the short term, Waller's speech on Wednesday is key. If dovish sentiment indicates a softening of core rates and a drop in oil prices, the market will welcome good news; if hawkish sentiment suggests rates rising to 4.2%, the good news will end. Besides that, the agreement signed between the U.S. and Iran in Switzerland on Friday is the truly important event.

Gate CrossEx, launched by Gate in 2025, is attempting to address the long-standing issue of institutional capital fragmentation in an "exchange-native" manner. This product achieves instant collateral scheduling and cross-platform profit and loss hedging between multiple exchanges through a unified margin pool and internal credit settlement mechanism, reducing the capital occupation and clearing risks caused by on-chain transfer delays.The core significance of Gate CrossEx is not limited to a single functional innovation, but rather it further aligns with the traditional financial Prime Brokerage model at the level of cryptocurrency trading infrastructure. Currently, CrossEx has covered multiple mainstream trading platforms and supports over 5,000 assets as collateral or trading targets. Since the launch of its Beta version, both its asset scale and trading volume index have shown rapid growth. In the context of industry competition shifting from "traffic-driven" to "capital efficiency and institutional capability-driven," Gate is continuously strengthening its layout in the institutional-level trading infrastructure field through CrossEx, further consolidating its competitive advantage in the global cryptocurrency market.

According to the latest weekly report from Gate Ventures, the global market experienced a corrective rebound last week driven by easing geopolitical tensions. The U.S. stock market recovered from its intra-week losses, but the Federal Reserve maintained a hawkish stance, with CPI rising to 4.2%, further strengthening market expectations for sustained high interest rates. The cryptocurrency market also warmed up, with BTC and ETH rising 3.8% and 2.1% respectively, but spot ETF funds continued to see net outflows.On the industry front, AI, prediction markets, and institutional-level infrastructure became the focus of market attention.

According to The Block, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated that the widespread adoption of dollar-pegged stablecoins in Nigeria is challenging the country's existing monetary policy and regulatory framework.The IMF pointed out that the devaluation of the naira, high inflation, and limited access to official foreign exchange are driving local households and small to medium-sized enterprises to turn to stablecoins for cross-border payments and to hedge against exchange rate risks.

a16z Crypto Operating Partner Jason Rosenthal posted on the X platform that cash flow is the moat. The best companies often establish themselves by placing themselves in the "cash flow," and cryptocurrency is the first modern technology born for this purpose. If your startup has not designed its products and business models around these principles, you will miss a great opportunity. Thanks to stablecoins, funds and value can now flow at the speed of the internet—global settlement, 24/7 uninterrupted, with end-to-end programmability.Railway companies do not make money from locomotives, but from every ton of goods that pass through the tracks; companies like Visa and Jane Street are all part of the cash flow. Cash flow combined with network effects is one of the most enduring business structures in history. There is a lot of profit margin in traditional financial services, and processes such as payments, custody, lending, foreign exchange, settlement, and market making can all be compressed. Crypto entrepreneurs have the opportunity to build the next generation of cash flow businesses that are programmable, instant, and global.This model can also be extended to computing, GPU markets, AI training data, energy, robotics, space, rare earth metals, and other fields. Founders should ask themselves: Are you in the cash flow? When the value of product activities grows tenfold, does your revenue grow accordingly? In your target market, where are the segments with the highest profit margins relative to the value created?

According to research by CointelegraphMT, traditional financial markets are absorbing institutional capital at a pace that cryptocurrencies find hard to match by 2026. The main reason is that AI has clear and measurable returns, while cryptocurrencies currently lack a similar narrative.Data shows that the S&P 500 index rose only 3.5% after excluding AI stocks in 2026, while AI-related indices saw an increase of nearly 50%. The five major tech companies in the U.S. are expected to reach $72.5 billion in capital expenditures for AI infrastructure this year, with Nvidia's quarterly revenue reaching $81.6 billion.The research points out that AI spending can be directly validated through revenue, capital expenditures, and profit margins, while the value proposition of cryptocurrencies is difficult to quantify for traditional allocators. Currently, while the supply of stablecoins is at a historical high, more funds are flowing into tokenized government bonds rather than risk assets.Additionally, in May, the net outflow from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs was $2.3 billion, marking the worst single month of the year. However, long-term holders continue to buy in the over-the-counter market, with market makers like Wintermute reporting stable buying around $72,000. The research concludes that unless cryptocurrencies can provide a measurable and repeatable institutional-level return story similar to AI, they will be at a significant disadvantage in competing for the same institutional funds.
