Today's Chain Reaction covers major developments shaking the crypto markets. India has cracked down on prediction markets, blocking Polymarket and preparing to ban Kalshi under new online gaming regulations. Meanwhile, Glassnode reveals nearly five hundred billion dollars in Bitcoin faces quantum computing vulnerability, with exchanges holding the highest concentration of exposed coins. On the institutional front, Representative Nick Begich introduced the American Reserve Modernization Act to enshrine a strategic Bitcoin reserve into federal law for at least twenty years. Hyperliquid's HYPE token surged above fifty-seven dollars as newly launched ETFs attracted over twenty-five million dollars in fresh inflows, outpacing Bitcoin products on a market-cap-adjusted basis. Bitcoin continues trading near seventy-seven thousand dollars as long-term holders increase their supply to record levels, while XRP ETFs defy broader market weakness with forty-two million dollars in weekly inflows. We also cover SpaceX's IPO filing revealing eighteen thousand BTC on its balance sheet, Mark Cuban selling most of his Bitcoin holdings, and the ongoing brain drain at the Ethereum Foundation sparking community debate.

Crypto Markets Face Worst Week Since FTX as Jobs Data Crushes Rate Cut Hopes

Bitcoin and Ethereum face their worst weekly performance since the FTX collapse, with BTC down 17% and ETH dropping 22% amid stronger-than-expected May employment numbers that killed Federal Reserve rate cut expectations. The May jobs report showed 172,000 new positions-more than double Wall Street estimates-triggering a massive selloff across risk assets. We examine why strong employment data sparked panic in crypto markets, explore the $390 billion market cap wipeout, and analyze critical technical levels as Bitcoin tests sixty thousand dollar support and Ethereum approaches its nine-year golden triangle apex. Plus, institutional developments including Meta's stablecoin creator payments, major banks building tokenized deposit networks to compete with USDC, and regulatory challenges facing Hyperliquid and the stalled CLARITY Act.

Crypto Markets Crash as Capital Rotates to AI, Zcash Faces Trust Crisis

Bitcoin and Ethereum are experiencing their worst week since July 2024, with BTC falling to around $62,500 and ETH dropping below $1,700. Michael Saylor attributes the selloff to capital rotation into AI infrastructure, with approximately $400 billion flowing into AI over six months versus $4 billion in crypto ETF outflows. Meanwhile, Zcash crashed 40% after disclosing a critical four-year-old vulnerability that could have enabled unlimited counterfeiting, raising fundamental questions about trust in privacy coins. In more positive developments, Coinbase closed the first-ever Fannie Mae-backed mortgage using Bitcoin as collateral, and major banks including JPMorgan, Bank of America, and Citi announced plans for a shared blockchain deposit network to compete with stablecoins.
