Hyperliquid's (HYPE) open interest in perpetual futures has surpassed $10 billion, with growth primarily driven by expanded trading in products linked to stocks, commodities, and unlisted shares, according to an analysis by Talos. In a report, Talos noted that Hyperliquid has grown into the world's third-largest perpetual futures exchange. The growth is underpinned by the expansion of its HIP-3 market, a governance proposal that allows anyone to create markets on the platform for assets beyond crypto, including stocks, commodities, and indices. Approximately $4 billion of the total open interest is estimated to originate from these HIP-3-based markets. Products linked to crude oil, the Nasdaq 100, and technology stocks have recorded particularly high trading volumes, while the pre-market for the SpaceX IPO attracted over $250 million in open interest before the company's listing. Talos explained that Hyperliquid's trajectory shows how crypto trading platforms are expanding beyond digital assets to provide exposure to traditional financial markets. Meanwhile, Hyperliquid recently launched a prediction market based on off-chain events. As of last week, the platform recorded over $15.6 million in fee revenue, ranking it as the third-highest fee-generating protocol in the industry, following Tether and Circle.

Strategy's approach to financing has become dangerously imbalanced compared to its past methods. The company now relies more heavily on STRC for funding, creating a scenario where a prolonged downturn or further decline in BTC's price could force it to sell its Bitcoin holdings.

In this CoinNess Original, we examine: - The changes in Strategy's financing structure - The risks of its deepening reliance on STRC - Why a BTC sale is becoming increasingly likely - The potential market shock from a collapse of its narrative

BlackRock's recently launched Bitcoin Premium Income ETF (BITA) is structured to underperform Bitcoin itself or deliver poor absolute returns in nearly all market scenarios, regardless of BTC's price direction, according to an analysis by 10x Research. BITA holds the spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) and sells monthly call options against a portion of its assets, distributing the premium received to investors. This covered call strategy inherently sacrifices upside potential for income. 10x Research noted that while there are market phases where selling calls is profitable, there are also phases where it is not. The firm argued that selling calls during unfavorable periods does not generate meaningful income but instead cheaply gives away upside potential. According to the analysis, BITA is designed to sell these calls mechanically every month, irrespective of market conditions.

Bitcoin's trend of outpacing the growth of the U.S. M2 money supply has begun to falter, suggesting the current stock market rally may not be as robust as it appears, CoinDesk reported. The outlet noted that BTC has halved from its $126,000 price in October 2025, and its ratio to M2 has formed what appears to be a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern. This weakening momentum suggests Bitcoin's ability to generate excess returns by overwhelming new dollar liquidity could diminish for some time. CoinDesk also pointed out that while the S&P 500 is near all-time highs, when adjusted for M2 growth, it has only recovered to its 2000 dot-com bubble peak. The analysis concludes that if Bitcoin, the risk asset most sensitive to liquidity, can no longer outperform money supply expansion, the stock market's rally may have a weaker foundation than it seems.

As the deadline approaches for European crypto companies to obtain licenses under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, BitGo is offering a service to help firms meet the new requirements, CoinDesk reported. BitGo Europe, which is licensed by Germany's Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), explained that its "Crypto-as-a-Service" platform provides an alternative for crypto companies across Europe to manage regulatory compliance. The service is designed to reduce the burden on companies of having to build their own compliant operating systems from scratch. However, clients must still conduct their own Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures that align with MiCA rules. BitGo also plans to help eligible companies use its infrastructure while they continue to pursue their own licenses as a MiCA-based Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP).

Justin Bons, co-founder of European crypto investment fund Cyber Capital, has called for the ousting of Cardano (ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson, BeInCrypto reported. Bons stated on X that the immediate catalyst for his demand was Hoskinson's proposal to move Cardano governance discussions to a moderator-managed Discord server. He also criticized Cardano for failing to meet its scalability goals, noting that its maximum throughput in 2026 will be only about 23 transactions per second (TPS). The report added that Hoskinson had suggested the move to Discord to facilitate more structured debates, arguing that discussions on X tend to become inflammatory and attract external criticism. His plan involves holding calm, moderated discussions before proceeding to a vote. In contrast, Bons views a structure where moderators control posts as a form of censorship, arguing that if power shifts to a faction favoring Cardano developer IOHK, unfavorable discussions could be suppressed.

Strategy's (MSRT) perpetual preferred stock, STRC, has fallen to an all-time low, Cointelegraph reported. The decline is said to reflect investor concerns over the company's recent Bitcoin purchases. According to the outlet, STRC fell 3.58% on June 16 to $91.79, a level 8.2% below its target price of $100. Markus Thielen, CEO of 10x Research, explained that the drop is related to Strategy's recent BTC acquisitions. He added that the market seems to prefer the company use its cash for dividend payments rather than buying more Bitcoin, noting that traders appear to view the recent purchases as an unsustainable strategy.

Bitwise Chief Investment Officer (CIO) Matt Hougan said that while everyone is asking if BTC has bottomed out, the more important question is whether it has reached its peak, Cointelegraph reported. In his view, if the peak has not yet been established, it represents a strong buying signal.
