Bitcoin crashes below $65,000 amid $1.86B liquidations and Saylor sell‑off
Bitcoin slipped under the $65,000 psychological barrier on June 3, sparking a 12% weekly decline. The drop triggered roughly $1.86 billion in leveraged futures liquidations and a $2.97 billion outflow from spot Bitcoin ETFs over ten sessions. Michael Saylor added pressure by selling 32 BTC, valued at about $2.5 million.

BlackRock Registers Staked Ethereum Trust
BlackRock has officially registered the iShares Staked Ethereum Trust in Delaware, four months after the SEC acknowledged its filing to allow staking in its ETHA Ethereum ETF. The new trust follows BlackRock's ETHA, the largest Ethereum ETF with over $13 billion in assets, dwarfing Fidelity's $2.5 billion. Ethereum rose 2% on the announcement, though the broader crypto market was also buoyed by Nvidia's earnings, and ETH remains down 4% for the day. The staked Ethereum trust would be BlackRock's first crypto product to deliver yield, potentially opening the door for additional staked crypto ETFs from the firm and rivals.
