Glassnode said on-chain indicators suggest speculative demand for Bitcoin exposure via traditional market vehicles is weakening, with activity falling across spot ETFs and bitcoin treasury companies. The firm cited a drop in the 30-day SMA of U.S. spot ETF volume from $4.4B per day in October 2025 to about $0.96B currently, alongside a decline in treasury-company trading from $34.2B per day in December 2025 to $17.4B now. It also noted spot demand has softened as BTC traded near $62,500 at publication time, down 22% from $80,900 a month earlier.

Italy's 2026 Budget Law raises the substitutive tax on crypto capital gains to 33% starting January 1, 2026, up from 26% in 2025. The same framework keeps euro-denominated MiCAR-compliant EMT tokens taxed at 26% and sets up a Permanent Supervisory Committee on crypto-assets. It also ties crypto holdings to ISEE means-testing and introduces updated reporting steps alongside DAC8-related data flows.

On June 13, 2026, Bitcoin traded around $64,200 as derivative data pointed to a broad leverage reset, with open interest reduced from above $90B to near $50B and funding close to neutral. Short-term holders remained under pressure, with BTC below the STH realized price near $75,000, implying roughly 15% unrealized losses for recent buyers. The setup describes heavy stress among newer holders but does not, by itself, confirm a market bottom.

Bitcoin traded above $64,000 on Saturday, briefly clearing $64,200 intraday and standing more than 8% above its June low near $59,000. The move followed $85.9 million of net inflows into U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs on Friday and market attention on Pakistan's prime minister saying a peace agreement is closer than ever, with finalisation expected within 24 hours.

Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said Saturday that the U.S. and Iran agreed on a peace-deal framework and that Pakistan expects an electronic signing within 24 hours that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and extend the ceasefire by 60 days. Iran’s Foreign Ministry disputed the Sunday signing timeline, while oil prices moved, with U.S. July crude futures at $84 per barrel and Brent around $87.

Tokenization activity is increasingly landing on Solana, including Exodus Markets’ rollout of more than 200 tokenized stocks, ETFs, and RWAs, plus plans to bring Securitize’s tokenized AAA CLO fund to the network alongside a proposed $250 million allocation from Ethena. At the same time, SOL remains below $100 and has been in a broader downtrend for nearly eight months, highlighting a gap between on-chain adoption and price performance.

Michael Saylor said on June 13 that 25% of the "Mag8" now holds bitcoin on corporate balance sheets, following SpaceX's public listing. He also positioned SpaceX alongside other mega-cap tech names in his framing, highlighting the growing use of BTC as a treasury asset among major firms.

T. Rowe Price’s Active Crypto ETF, which includes Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Dogecoin (DOGE), moved closer to trading after a proposed rule change was approved.

The fund is designed to hold between five and 15 cryptocurrencies from a broader list that currently features SHIB, DOGE and several major assets.
