More than 60 crypto projects have already shut down in 2026.

Since the beginning of the year, over 60 crypto protocols have announced they are shutting down. And the list keeps growing.

10 of them had raised more than $10 million in funding.

The top 3 closed projects by funding amount were all backed by a16z:

Yupp - $33M
Syndicate - $27.8M
Entropy - $26.95M

The takeaway? Big funds and large funding rounds don’t guarantee a project’s survival 🌚

137,379 traders were liquidated in the past 24 hours, and the total liquidations come in at $991.52 million.

The largest single liquidation order happened on Hyperliquid - BTC-USD value $38.05M.

Just another normal day in crypto. A few rugs, a few hacks, a few dips… and almost $1B wiped out.

Who could have predicted this???

Oh wait…

The hunter became the hunted 🦈

One of Ethereum’s most notorious MEV bots - JaredFromSubway - which has extracted tens of millions from traders through sandwich attacks since 2023, got drained for $7.5M+ in one of the cleanest exploits we’ve seen.

No smart contract bug. No private key compromise. No phishing.

The attacker simply tricked the bot into approving its own robbery.

And now the story gets even better…

After losing millions, JaredFromSubway is negotiating with the hacker directly on-chain:

“Well played. Return half the funds and keep the rest.”

Crypto never disappoints 😁

3.5 more months of pain.

Only now are people starting to realize that things may not be as bullish as they expected. The market is slowly waking up to reality.

There’s more pain ahead before this is over.

That said, nothing has changed in our outlook since February - we’re following the plan 🎯

Where could Bitcoin find its bottom? 🎯

Every Bitcoin cycle, I hear the same story: “This time is different.”

Yes, this CRYPTO cycle did feel different - many altcoins were heavily destroyed. But Bitcoin behaved exactly as it always has, which is why we were able to time the top so well. Now it’s time to talk about the bottom.

I tried to present this chart in a way that’s easy to understand - simple enough that even a 10-year-old could follow it. Hope you enjoy it.

This is now the 4th consecutive cycle where the same historical pattern has played out. And history suggests there should be more downside ahead.

Bitcoin bear market drawdowns follow a clear trend:

▪️ 2011: −93.77%
▪️ 2015: −86.52%
▪️ 2018: −84.48%
▪️ 2022: −77.42%

Each cycle, the drawdown becomes smaller as the market matures. Time between top & bottom remains stable (~12-14 months). Bottoms form after sentiment completely collapses, not during hope.

On the monthly chart, we’re seeing lower highs, weak rebounds, and strong selling pressure. Relief rallies keep getting shorter and weaker - a classic sign of a mid-bear phase, not capitulation yet. One of these relief rallies is happening right now.

🎯 Projected bottom:
October 2026: ~ $38,000

This aligns with prior macro accumulation zones, long-term trend support, and historical bottom timing windows.

The probabilities are on our side. We’re still about 8 months away, so naturally, things can change, but the closer we get, the clearer and more accurate the picture becomes. We just need a bit more data to be more accurate.

Of course, we’ll keep you updated on any changes - and we’ll let you know when the bottom is in.

I can already imagine the comments coming - happy to hear every opinion. Let me know what you think 👇

🚨 FOMC IS JUST HOURS AWAY.

Expect volatility.

0x50b3... whale is betting on a move higher 📈

This trader has just loaded up on over $110 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum longs right before the first speech from what many call the most crypto-friendly Fed Chair in history.

Either this trader is making a very expensive mistake...

Or he knows something the rest of the market doesn’t.

Elon Musk is worth more than Bitcoin’s entire market capitalization.

His wealth is growing so fast that I can barely keep up with the updates. It’s already at $1.4 trillion.

He is worth more than the other 9 richest people in the world.

In a single day, Elon Musk added the equivalent of Bill Gates’ entire $125 billion fortune to his net worth.

Love him or hate him, this man has done the unthinkable and achieved a status few other men will ever reach.

Since October 2025, we’ve had five FOMC meetings.

📉 After every single one, Bitcoin eventually moved lower:

🔻 -29.2%
🔻 -10.5%
🔻 -32.7%
🔻 -14.7%
🔻 -25.7%

Average drawdown: -22.6%

Now we’re approaching another FOMC decision in 2 days, and the market is acting as if nothing can go wrong.

But look at the risk calendar ahead:

➖ US–Iran deal: The agreement isn’t expected to be signed until June 19. Any disagreement, delay, or violation could quickly shake global markets.

➖ SpaceX: If the stock struggles after IPO, it could trigger broader risk-off sentiment and pressure the S&P 500.

➖ Bank of Japan rate decision (June 16): A rate hike could strengthen the yen and force investors to sell risk assets to cover currency exposure, similar to previous carry trade unwinds.

➖ Federal Reserve rate decision: Any hint of a more hawkish stance, higher-for-longer rates, or slower easing could increase pressure across stocks, crypto, and other risk assets.

The last five FOMC meetings all marked major volatility events, and this upcoming week may be one of the most important macro weeks of 2026.

The chart speaks for itself.

This is what one year of holding ETH does to a man.

Vitalik, look what you’ve done

Two major crypto scams keep pumping.

When the music stops, the short setup will be glorious 📉

Stay tuned 🍿

Donny really cashed out on the hamsters.

While retail was buying the dream, the Trump-related crypto basket turned into a graveyard:

🔻 TRUMP - down around 98% from the highs
🔻 WLFI - down around 85%
🔻 MELANIA - down around 99%
🔻 ABTC - almost wiped out from historical highs

Investors lost tens of billions chasing the hype, while Donny and his family generated at least $2.3 billion from four crypto ventures since returning to the White House.

This wasn’t just a pump and dump. This was a presidential-level liquidity extraction event 💵

The charts say everything. Welcome to crypto politics.
