    LUNC Market Cap Reclaims $500 Million

    Terra Luna Classic surged 12% in the past 24 hours, pushing its market capitalization back above $500 million for the third time in a month. The token has gained more than 50% over the last 30 days as speculative trading activity and renewed meme-driven momentum returned to the market. The rebound is notable because LUNC has struggled to maintain sustained rallies since the collapse of the original Terra ecosystem in 2022. Traders are now watching whether rising volume and momentum can support another breakout or if the token faces resistance as short-term holders begin taking profits.

    Stake DAO Hit by 5.44T Token Exploit

    Stake DAO was exploited on Arbitrum after an attacker reportedly obtained the protocol’s deployer private key and changed the LayerZero v2 peer configuration for vsdCRV. By setting an arbitrary peer, the attacker forged a malicious cross-chain message that triggered the unconditional minting of roughly 5.44 trillion vsdCRV tokens to their wallet. Blockchain security firm Blockaid said the attacker already swapped part of the tokens for around 43.78 ETH and bridged funds to Ethereum. Users have been urged to revoke approvals while the team investigates the breach.

    Banca Sella Becomes First Italian Bank Approved for Crypto Services

    Banca Sella said it has completed the notification process with the Bank of Italy, positioning it to become the first Italian bank authorized to offer crypto-related services. The bank plans to launch digital asset custody and transfer services for selected clients by the end of 2026. The move marks a significant step for crypto adoption within Italy’s traditional banking sector, especially as European regulators continue building frameworks around digital assets. Banca Sella is also a founding member of Qivalis, a group of 37 banks working on a euro-backed stablecoin initiative, signaling growing institutional interest in blockchain-based financial infrastructure.

    Dormant Bitcoin Wallets Burn 107 BTC Worth $8.3 Million

    Five long-dormant wallets transferred 107 Bitcoin — worth roughly $8.3 million — to a burn address, permanently removing the coins from circulation after more than 11 years of inactivity. Burn addresses are inaccessible wallets with no known private keys, meaning the funds cannot be recovered or spent again. The event slightly reduces Bitcoin’s already limited supply, adding to the long-term scarcity narrative that supports the asset’s value proposition. Traders are now watching whether more dormant whale wallets become active as Bitcoin remains near historically elevated price levels.

    South Korea Crypto Trading Volume Drops Sharply Against Stock Market

    South Korea has seen cryptocurrency trading activity fall to around one-tenth of stock market levels as investors shift toward equities during the country’s strong KOSPI rally. Data showed combined trading volume across major exchanges including Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax reached only 8% of KOSPI trading volume in May. The figure marks a major decline from December 2024, when crypto trading volume briefly exceeded stock market activity following the post-election crypto rally in the United States. Markets are now watching whether weaker retail participation signals a longer-term cooling in South Korea’s once-dominant crypto trading environment.

    Ripple Trademark Filings Signal Push Into Institutional Finance

    Ripple has filed new trademarks covering prime brokerage, securities lending, and clearing services, signaling a broader expansion into institutional financial infrastructure. The filings suggest Ripple is moving beyond cross-border payments and deeper into services traditionally dominated by major banks and trading firms. The move follows Ripple’s $1.25 billion acquisition of Hidden Road, which now operates as Ripple Prime. Markets are watching whether Ripple can leverage its blockchain network and institutional relationships to become a larger player in tokenized finance and crypto-integrated capital markets.

    BlackRock’s IBIT Records Massive $1.29B Dark Pool Bitcoin ETF Trade

    BlackRock saw a massive $1.29 billion dark pool transaction tied to its IBIT Bitcoin ETF, involving nearly 29 million shares traded on Nasdaq. According to Alex Thorn, it was the largest IBIT block trade he had seen. The trade briefly surpassed the ETF’s normal daily trading volume, highlighting strong institutional activity in spot Bitcoin products. Despite the scale of the transaction, Bitcoin held above $75,000, suggesting the market absorbed the order without major volatility. Traders are now watching whether large institutional positioning continues supporting ETF inflows and Bitcoin price stability.

    South Korea Makes First Arrest in DEX Rug Pull Fraud Case

    South Korea prosecutors have made the country’s first arrest and prosecution tied to a decentralized exchange rug pull scheme. Authorities charged a group accused of manipulating the price of CATFI and earning roughly KRW 400 million ($260,000) in illegal profits. Investigators said the main suspect, identified as Park, allegedly posed online as crypto influencer “Eth Father” to falsely market the token before executing the rug pull. The scheme reportedly caused about KRW 900 million in losses for 256 investors. The case signals that regulators are increasing enforcement against fraud in decentralized crypto markets, even when activity occurs through DEX platforms.

    XRP Traders Deep in Losses as MVRV Hits Lowest Level Since 2020

    XRP traders who were active over the past 30 days are down an average of 47%, pushing the token’s MVRV ratio to its lowest level since December 2020. The metric measures average trader profitability, and historically, deeply negative readings have appeared during periods of extreme fear and capitulation before major rebounds. Despite XRP losing more than half its value since last summer, investors continue watching for potential catalysts including regulatory progress, ETF speculation, and broader adoption of Ripple technology. Markets are now focused on whether panic selling has largely exhausted itself, creating conditions for a stronger recovery if sentiment improves.
