According to CryptoQuant analyst Arab Chain, the number of Bitcoin miner deposit transactions has significantly decreased recently, with the current reading at approximately 8,138 transactions, one of the lowest levels in history. This data once exceeded 100,000 transactions by the end of 2025, reflecting a large amount of Bitcoin deposited by miners, which is usually associated with selling intentions or profit-taking. However, since the beginning of 2026, this indicator has shown an overall downward trend, with no clear peak.The current selling pressure from Bitcoin miners has significantly eased, which may provide additional support for the market. The decrease in transaction numbers not only indicates a reduction in deposit amounts but also suggests a lower frequency of transfers to exchanges, reflecting a more conservative behavior among miners.

According to TechCrunch, insiders who have repeatedly disclosed Apple's hardware plans stated that OpenAI is collaborating with MediaTek, Qualcomm, and Luxshare Precision to develop a smartphone.

Sky announced that it is building Laniakea, a standardized infrastructure framework for institutional-level capital deployment, for its Sky Agent Network.Currently, Sky Protocol manages over $11 billion in USDS circulation and generates returns through strategies such as DeFi lending, private credit, and compliant real-world assets. Laniakea will serve as the underlying infrastructure to enhance the scalability and efficiency of capital allocation, further advancing on-chain finance towards institutional levels. The project aims to address the current issue of over $300 billion in idle stablecoins and the lack of unified infrastructure.Laniakea will achieve standardization from four dimensions: smart contracts, risk and governance, data infrastructure, and legal compliance, allowing new capital products to avoid redundant construction of underlying frameworks, thus enabling modular expansion and scalable deployment. At the same time, through unified risk measurement and loss layering mechanisms, it ensures that risks are transparent and responsibilities are clear.Under this framework, Sky Agents (Primes) will develop investment strategies and compete for capital allocation based on unified standards, while specific products (Halos) will quickly land based on shared infrastructure. Laniakea will also encode the entire protocol's operational status in a machine-readable manner, providing a foundation for AI-driven real-time risk control and capital scheduling.As the capital scale expands and returns increase, Sky expects to strengthen the value capture capability of the SKY token through buyback and staking mechanisms.

According to CoinDesk, Paul Sztorc, a developer who has long focused on Bitcoin scaling solutions, proposed a Bitcoin hard fork named eCash to be initiated in August 2026 at block height 964,000, distributing eCash to users holding BTC at a 1:1 ratio at the time of the fork, and introducing a Drivechains sidechain architecture in the new chain.The controversy mainly revolves around the plan to pre-allocate a portion of eCash corresponding to Satoshi Nakamoto's address on the new chain to early investors, a move that has drawn criticism from the community, with some individuals claiming it involves "stealing" tokens. Paul Sztorc stated that this move aims to provide incentives for development and collaboration before the project's launch.

Blockchain Capital partner Spencer Bogart posted on X platform that the total transaction volume of Kalshi and Polymarket is nearly equal, both around $12 billion (the former at $12.29 billion and the latter at $12.22 billion). Excluding sports-related transactions, Polymarket's non-sports category transaction volume is $7.5 billion, while Kalshi is only $1.6 billion.Despite the positioning differences between the two in the prediction market, it is strange that they are still classified in the same category.

Currently, there are about 10 million e-rupee users, with a cumulative transaction amount of approximately $3.6 billion, which is still significantly lower than the UPI system that processes about $300 billion in transactions monthly in India.

BIT tweeted that in the past two issues of the "Biton Target" report, we hinted that the bear market phase of Bitcoin may be nearing its end. Signals from multiple time dimensions are gradually forming resonance, supporting this judgment. When this judgment was made, Bitcoin was approaching the downward trend line formed since the bear market began in October 2025, just one step away from breaking upwards. Meanwhile, the weekly stochastic oscillator has fallen to a low not seen since January 2023, which was near the phase bottom after the end of the 2021/2022 bear market. Historically, this indicator reading often corresponds to market bottom areas.Our Bitcoin trend model has turned bullish. Trend signals do not always materialize, but considering that Bitcoin itself has strong trends and high volatility characteristics, after the previous two signals reversed quickly, the current round of movement has better conditions for continuation. Additionally, Bitcoin's price is gradually approaching the 21-week moving average, which has a critical boundary significance in our bull-bear judgment framework.$73,000 has always been an important watershed since March 2024 and is a key threshold for confirming whether this trend can reverse. Recently, Bitcoin has been fluctuating around $70,000. If it can effectively break through and stabilize above $73,000, the reversal signal will be further confirmed. Currently, various indicators are overall positive, but before the price enters this round's target range, the upward pace may still be disturbed by phase risk factors, so attention should be maintained.

Web3 asset data platform RootData released the seventh issue of the "Cryptocurrency Exchange Transparency Ranking (Stock Category)", continuing to focus on the growth trend of stock assets in cryptocurrency exchanges. In this issue, Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, and Gate ranked in the top five.Among them, Bybit's ranking improved by 2 places, re-entering the top three, mainly due to Bybit listing 49 new stock contracts during the statistical period, making it the exchange with the most supported stocks currently. Bitget's ranking dropped by 2 places, with traffic decreasing by over 40%, which may be related to the rapid decline in traffic following the end of the SPAX subscription activity.As the market prices of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin rise, the trading volume of exchanges generally increased by over 10% in this issue, with Kraken rising by over 20%, boosting its ranking to 6th place. Hotcoin, on the other hand, fell to 10th place due to a decrease in its transparency score.It is reported that RootData adheres to the principle of "transparency first" and has taken the lead in establishing a dual evaluation system of "transparency + liquidity" in the field of stock cryptocurrency exchanges, providing investors with more effective data references, and will continue to enhance and publish this ranking in the future.
