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.

Stable Hits $825 Million Cap Within 30 Minutes of Pre-Deposit Launch

Rapid cap exhaustion could accelerate token distribution timelines, heighten liquidity on launch, and draw increased regulatory and market scrutiny given the large short-term inflows.
