Over $14 billion worth of Bitcoin options contracts are scheduled to expire on Deribit at 08:00 UTC on Friday, June 28. The options are one of the largest quarterly settlements this year and have already begun influencing sentiment and volatility expectations across crypto markets. According to data provided by Deribit Metrics, a total of 141,271 Bitcoin options contracts will expire, with open interest amounting to more than 40% of Deribit’s total. Each contract on Deribit equals one BTC, bringing the total notional value of the expiring contracts to over $14 billion at current prices. The spot price of Bitcoin stood near $107,300 at the time of reporting. Put-call ratio increase sends mixed market sentiment signals Leading into the expiry, investors have increased their use of put options, driving the Bitcoin put-call open interest ratio to 0.72. An uptick in the put-call ratio is interpreted as a bearish signal. However, some analysts believe that the bearish read may be oversimplified in this case. Lin Chen, head of business development for Asia at Deribit, noted that much of the recent put activity appears to be driven by “cash-secured puts,” a common yield-generation strategy. In this approach, investors sell put options while keeping enough capital in reserve to buy BTC if prices drop and the puts are exercised. This tactic is akin to collecting a premium in exchange for a willingness to buy Bitcoin at a discount, and may not necessarily mean the market is outright pessimistic. Call options lead, but only a fraction profitable Out of the 141,271 contracts expiring Friday, 81,994 are call options, and the remainder are puts. Yet, despite the volume of calls, most of them are expected to expire worthless. According to Deribit, nearly 20% of the call options are currently “in the money,” with strike prices below the current spot level of $106,000. A portion of call holders have already secured profitable positions during the Q1 2024-Q1 2025 bullish cycle. Holders of profitable positions may look to either book gains or roll over their exposure to future contracts, and both moves can increase short-term market volatility. Deribit expects a spike in market movement around the expiry window, given its size and quarterly significance. Tight trading range, max pain near $102K Most expiring contracts with extreme strike prices are unlikely to pay out. The $300 call option has the largest open interest among out-of-the-money contracts, which shows that some traders had bet on a sustained rally in the first half of the year that failed to materialize. The “max pain point” for this expiry, the price level at which the greatest number of option buyers would incur losses, is calculated at $102,000. As of midweek, Bitcoin’s price is consolidating between $106,000 and $107,500, just above that threshold. Far out-of-the-money strikes have larger intervals, while those near the current price are more granular. Available increments include $50, $100, $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000, several hedging and speculative possibilities for traders. Crypto market maker Wintermute reported that traders are selling straddles, a strategy that profits when volatility decreases, and writing call options around the $105,000 level while also shorting puts at $100,000. “Flows skew neutral with straddle/call selling around 105K and short puts at 100K… pointing to expectations of tight price action into expiry,” Wintermute’s OTC desk surmised.

Green Minerals (GEM), a deep-sea mining firm, has bought 4 BTC on Wednesday as part of its strategy, announced on Monday, to acquire a $1.2 billion Bitcoin treasury. Green Minerals is joining many crypto companies building treasury strategies to convert various finance methodologies into cryptocurrencies as a store of value. The 4 BTC purchased for $420,000 at $105,000 per token, which amounts to 4.25 million Norwegian Kroner. Green Minerals is listed on the Oslo exchange and wishes to engage in a tech-centric business operations model. Stale Rodahl, executive chairman of Green Minerals, said that Bitcoin was a hedge against inflation and had the added benefit of being decentralized. Rodahl believes that Bitcoin tackles the issue of fiat debasement and could sustain the company through uncertain times. Green Minerals announced earlier this week that the deep-sea mining company was adopting a Bitcoin treasury strategy to coincide with its sustainable mining business. The company stated explicitly that it invested in Bitcoin to offset the risks inherent to fiat currencies, which can be subjected to inflation and geopolitical risks. Green Minerals further wants to adopt blockchain technologies to modernize its operations. Rodahl, Green Minerals’ executive chairman, said it was important to maintain a strong balance sheet while enduring economic disruptions. The company plans to finance up to $1.2 billion through its Bitcoin treasury strategy. Green Minerals, however, wishes to maintain its regular operations and wants to integrate blockchain technology into its business model. Rodahl stated that Bitcoin can enhance transparency and trace supply chain networks. The company is committed to its capital expenditure goals and uses blockchain to digitise its treasury. Green Minerals will use a BTC/share metric so that shareholders can track the strength of its Bitcoin treasury. The company announced earlier this week that the treasury strategy would establish the company as a leader in finance innovations and technological business models. The company already prides itself as a leader in sustainable underwater mining operations, but wishes to embrace blockchain technology. Treasury strategy adoption is up 13% from last month due to an increased interest in holding crypto on the balance sheet. Green Minerals is just another company adding to this newfound trend. The corporate world has discovered a new use of crypto, which the blockchain community hasn’t thoroughly analysed. There are now over 245 companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets. These companies collectively hold around $88 billion, which adds substantive value to the BTC token. Meanwhile, Green Minerals’ stock price dropped by 20% on Tuesday after the initial announcement. The company wishes to use transparent methods regarding acquiring Bitcoin and will update shareholders with any changes to the balance sheet. Rodahl assured investors that the Bitcoin strategy will support regular business operations to enhance technological efficiency and promote a future-oriented business model. Green Minerals plans to acquire its target of $1.2 billion worth of Bitcoin by working with its partners to devise programs to finance the acquisition. Green Minerals has now acquired its first 4 BTC as part of this plan, to start the process immediately. At the current $106,500 per Bitcoin price, the company could reach its target of $1.2 billion by buying 11,255 BTC. The company also wishes to integrate blockchain innovations into its business model to remain competitive in the underwater sustainable mining industry and prepare the business for any regulatory changes. As regards the mining industry, Green Minerals says that blockchain technology can be applied to supply chain verification and mineral origin certification. Norway, the country where Green Minerals resides, announced last week that it will temporarily ban Bitcoin mining centres to prioritise energy levels and meet environmental targets. The Labour government in Norway is concerned that Bitcoin is extracted with maximum computation efficiency, upsetting their key targets of reducing pollution levels. The Labour Party has commented that they would like to prioritise energy levels from Bitcoin data centres over those of community data centres. This illustrates how the Norwegian government values climate policy and views proof-of-work mechanisms as an obstacle to its strategic goals. Yet the government has stated that it values blockchain and AI technology. The Labour government does not wish to impede innovation in Norway, but wants to prioritise energy supply so that other industries can enjoy government subsidies. Green Minerals, meanwhile, may be accumulating a Bitcoin treasury to deal with regulatory uncertainty amidst an evolving public sector.

The global cryptocurrency market has added $1 trillion in value over the past year, climbing from around $2.28 trillion last June to $3.29 trillion on June 25, as revealed by data sourced from CoinMarketCap and analyzed by Finbold. This 43% surge in total market capitalization underscores a broad-based crypto rally, but the gains have been unevenly distributed across categories. Crypto market cap 1-year. Source: CoinMarketCap Bitcoin ( BTC ) has led the charge, swelling its market cap by about 74.7% to approximately $2.13 trillion, which solidifies BTC’s dominance at roughly 60% of the entire market. Crypto market cap 1-year distribution. Source: CoinMarketCap Stablecoins (USD-pegged digital tokens used for liquidity and trading) also expanded by 51.5%, now making up over $230 billion of the market – a sign of significant new capital parked in crypto’s dollar-based rails. The aggregate value of “Other” cryptocurrencies – essentially all non-Bitcoin, non-Ethereum, non-stablecoin assets has grown about 26.9% year-on-year, reflecting healthy if more modest growth in altcoins broadly. In stark contrast, Ethereum ( ETH ) (the second-largest crypto) has lagged dramatically: Ether’s market cap actually shrank 28% over the year, dropping from roughly $408 billion to about $292 billion. As a result, Ethereum’s share of the total market has nearly halved (down to only 9% of crypto’s value), even as Bitcoin’s dominance has surged to multi-year highs. Such a substantial $1 trillion upswing in crypto’s collective valuation did not occur in isolation. It has been bolstered by a confluence of positive forces from a seismic shift in U.S. political/regulatory climate to strong institutional investment flows and the rollout of new cryptocurrency investment vehicles. These tailwinds have not only driven Bitcoin to new heights ($111,970 per coin in May) but have also fostered a sense of renewed momentum in the broader digital asset space. Below, we break down the key factors behind crypto’s remarkable past-year run. Trump’s pro-crypto turnaround A major factor energizing the crypto market has been the political sea change in the United States. The election and January inauguration of President Donald Trump for a second term marked a stark pivot in U.S. crypto policy. Trump campaigned on making America “a hub for digital asset innovation” and courted crypto enthusiasts with bold promises, firing SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, halting government Bitcoin sales, establishing a strategic national Bitcoin reserve, and crafting friendly crypto policies. Indeed, one of Trump’s first moves in office was expected to be appointing a new, crypto-friendly SEC chair to replace the notoriously stringent Gensler. This promise materialized: under the new administration, the SEC’s leadership quickly took a more accommodative stance, even kicking off a “crypto policy overhaul” to unwind the prior regime’s enforcement-centric approach. The change in tone cannot be overstated, regulators signaled they would “stop suing crypto [companies] and start talking to crypto,” in the words of one industry advocate, a sharp departure from the aggressive clampdowns of years prior. Crucially, Trump’s own actions have directly bolstered crypto sentiment. In a striking show of support, President Trump literally entered the crypto arena himself by launching a personal crypto token called Official TRUMP ( TRUMP ) around his inauguration in January. The meme coin token’s debut was met with frenzied trading: TRUMP rocketed from about $10 to over $74 within days, at one point achieving a staggering paper valuation near $8.9 billion. While clearly a highly speculative venture, the token’s brief success underscored the feverish enthusiasm among Trump’s base and crypto traders for anything associated with the new President’s name. Just days after TRUMP launched, two asset managers (REX Shares and Osprey Funds) even filed for a “Trump Meme Coin ETF” to package the token into an exchange-traded fund. Institutional FOMO: Wall Street pours billions into crypto Another critical driver of the past year’s crypto resurgence has been heavy institutional investment, particularly via new Bitcoin-focused funds and ETFs. In 2024, U.S. regulators allowed the first spot Bitcoin ETFs , and that opening of the floodgates truly materialized in 2025. Over the last year we’ve witnessed nothing short of an institutional buying frenzy for Bitcoin, as traditional finance titans race to secure their piece of the digital gold rush. Nowhere is this more evident than in the actions of the world’s largest asset managers. BlackRock , the $9 trillion asset giant, and Fidelity, the $4+ trillion brokerage behemoth, have been accumulating Bitcoin at an unprecedented scale through their crypto fund offerings. On June 24, 2025, blockchain records flagged by Arkham Intelligence showed that BlackRock and Fidelity collectively scooped up over $521 million of BTC in a single day . BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ( IBIT ), the firm’s spot Bitcoin ETF vehicle received a mammoth inflow of 4,130 BTC (roughly $436 million worth) in one day, sourced from Coinbase’s institutional custody platform. On the same day, Fidelity’s own Bitcoin fund (ticker FBTC) grabbed 805 BTC ($85 million), via a pair of large OTC transactions into its custodial wallet. These massive purchases underscore how major institutions are methodically building exposure on any market dips. Such daily buys by two of Wall Street’s biggest names were part of a broader trend of sustained ETF inflows. In fact, that late-June day marked an inflection point: in total, U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw over $659 million in net inflows on June 24 alone, the largest one-day influx on record. BlackRock is competing with Strategy As of late-June, BlackRock’s ETF held roughly 683,185 BTC (over $73 billion worth), putting BlackRock neck-and-neck with (or ahead of) Michael Saylor’s famed Bitcoin stash at Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). Speaking of Saylor: corporate accumulation has continued unabated alongside the ETF frenzy. Saylor’s company Strategy has been buying Bitcoin relentlessly week after week, recently even during price dips caused by geopolitical news. Between BlackRock’s ETF and Strategy’s treasury, over 1.147 million BTC are now held by just these two institutions, a decent percentage of Bitcoin’s total supply. Add in other players like Grayscale, which despite recent outflows has started adding to its GBTC trust again (even a modest +55 BTC in late June), and it’s clear that institutions are now a dominant force in the crypto market. Their sizable allocations have provided a steady bid supporting prices for instance, Bitcoin has consolidated firmly above $100,000 this summer amid these inflows. And their involvement lends an air of legitimacy that continues to draw even more capital off the sidelines. In short, big money is pouring into crypto. The combination of regulatory approval for exchange-traded products and growing investor appetite for an inflation-hedging, non-sovereign asset class has created a feedback loop: positive market performance begets more institutional interest, which begets more inflows and product launches, further boosting market cap. This institutional momentum has been a key pillar of the $1 trillion market cap increase – a fundamental shift from the retail-driven booms of prior years.

2025 is shaping up to be one of the wildest years crypto has seen since the golden days of 2021. Ethereum’s climbing. Bitcoin’s reclaiming dominance. But if you’re looking to turn $600 into something close to $54,000, the answer isn’t in stacking slow movers like ETH. It’s in meme coins, the high-risk, high-reward wildcards that explode the moment retail mania kicks in. But not just any memes. The ones with momentum, utility, and viral narratives. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): A Meme Engine, Not Just a Coin Let’s start with the one meme coin that isn’t waiting for a bull market to prove its worth. LILPEPE has already raised over $1.82 million in its presale, with 1.66 billion tokens sold out of a 2.25 billion Stage 3 supply. That’s a full-blown stampede with its price still just $0.0012. What makes LILPEPE stand out isn’t just the early buzz. It’s the tech behind the meme. That means: Blazing-fast transactions with zero gas fees Rug-proof, sniper-resistant architecture A built-in meme launchpad called Pepe’s Pump Pad Full Ethereum compatibility, without Ethereum headaches An all-star giveaway—$777,000 in prizes, with 10 people set to win $77,000 each just for helping spread the word Even more exciting? The presale listing price has already been confirmed at $0.003, meaning early buyers are locked in for a 2.5x gain before it even hits the open market. This is a meme coin that gives PEPE and SHIB vibes—but with a layer of tech that no one expected. If it even touches $0.05 in the next cycle, that $200 bet becomes $8,333. And if it catches a SHIB-style wave? Well, let’s just say that’s where six-figure memes are born. Shiba Inu (SHIB): The Original Meme With Muscle SHIB has been around the block, and unlike many of its 2020–2021 contemporaries, it’s still here—and still pumping. So what makes SHIB still worth a shot? It has a massive army of loyal holders (the “ShibArmy”) Billions in liquidity means it can pump fast when retail returns TVL in Shibarium is growing, and analysts are eyeing $0.0001 as the next major resistance Currently, SHIB trades at around $0.000014, and technical charts indicate that a breakout above $0.0000147 could trigger a sharp rally. Even without hitting a dollar, a 5–7x return from here is plausible in a meme-fueled bull run. Put $200 in SHIB now, and you’ll see a potential $1,400–$2,000 return with just a mild run-up. Add that to a bag of LILPEPE, and we’re talking layered exposure—meme blue-chip meets emerging frogtech. ai16z (AI16Z): The Meme That Thinks for Itself You’ve heard of a DAO. You’ve heard of meme coins. You’ve heard of AI. Have you heard of a meme coin governed by AI within a DAO? ai16z, launched on Solana in October 2024, is the first token to combine meme culture, decentralized governance, and artificial intelligence. Its name is a play on “a16z” (Andreessen Horowitz’s VC nickname), but its mission is much wilder—token holders vote, and a built-in AI agent executes decisions. From buying NFTs to funding micro-projects, the community feeds the brain. And it’s not just an idea on paper. The circulating supply is only 1.1 billion, which is small enough to move quickly. If the broader market leans into AI narratives again, then AI16Z could become the poster child for smart, meme-meets-machine investing. Even if you invest just $200, a run to $5 would yield over $4,300. And in a full bull? $10–$12 isn’t fantasy—it’s fuel. Final Take: Turn $600 into $54,000? Let’s break it down: $200 in LILPEPE at $0.0012 → If it hits $0.10 = $16,666 $200 in SHIB → 5x rally? $1,000–$1,400 $200 in AI16Z → From $0.23 to $10? $8,600+ Multiply that with meme season mania, and you’re suddenly in $50K+ territory. All from what most people spend on weekend dinners and impulse buys. Meme coins don’t ask you to be rich—they ask you to be early. Want to get in before the rest of Crypto X catches on?

BitcoinWorld Bitcoin Treasury: TruSpine Technologies Pioneers a Revolutionary Digital Asset Strategy In a fascinating turn of events that underscores the evolving landscape of corporate finance, a UK-listed medical device company, TruSpine Technologies, has announced a groundbreaking decision. On June 25, the firm revealed its intention to incorporate Bitcoin (BTC) into its treasury reserves, a move that signals a bold new direction for traditional businesses. This decision positions TruSpine Technologies at the forefront of a growing trend, challenging conventional approaches to asset management and risk mitigation. TruSpine Technologies Embraces a Bold Bitcoin Treasury Strategy The news, first reported by JinSe Finance, highlights TruSpine Technologies’ proactive stance in adapting to global economic shifts. As a medical device company, its foray into the world of digital assets might seem unexpected to some, but it reflects a calculated strategic decision. The company plans to allocate funds from future financing rounds towards acquiring BTC, transforming a portion of its corporate holdings into a digital format. Why would a medical firm, traditionally focused on innovation in healthcare, pivot towards a Bitcoin treasury strategy? TruSpine’s rationale is clear: they view Bitcoin as a strategic hedge. Specifically, the company aims to protect its reserves against the pervasive threats of inflation and global political risks. In an era marked by economic uncertainty and geopolitical instability, traditional fiat currencies and fixed-income assets can be vulnerable. Bitcoin, with its decentralized nature and limited supply, offers an alternative store of value that many believe can withstand such pressures. Why Are More Companies Considering Corporate Bitcoin Holdings? TruSpine Technologies is not an isolated case. Over the past few years, a growing number of corporations, ranging from tech giants to traditional businesses, have begun exploring or outright adopting corporate Bitcoin strategies. This trend is driven by several factors: Erosion of Purchasing Power: Central bank policies, including quantitative easing and low-interest rates, have led to concerns about the long-term devaluation of fiat currencies. Companies are looking for assets that can preserve or even grow their purchasing power. Diversification: Traditional treasury management often relies on a limited set of assets like cash, bonds, and equities. Bitcoin offers a new avenue for diversification, potentially reducing overall portfolio risk. Technological Advancement: As the world becomes increasingly digital, embracing digital assets aligns with a forward-thinking business philosophy. It signals an understanding of emerging financial paradigms. Potential for Appreciation: While volatile, Bitcoin has historically demonstrated significant long-term growth, attracting companies seeking higher returns than traditional low-yield assets. Early pioneers like MicroStrategy and Tesla have showcased the potential, and the challenges, of holding significant Bitcoin reserves. Their experiences have provided a blueprint, and lessons, for other companies considering a similar path. Bitcoin as an Inflation Hedge: A New Paradigm for Corporate Finance? One of the primary drivers behind TruSpine’s decision is Bitcoin’s perceived role as an inflation hedge . The argument is compelling: unlike fiat currencies, which can be printed indefinitely by central banks, Bitcoin has a capped supply of 21 million coins. This scarcity, combined with its decentralized and censorship-resistant nature, makes it an attractive alternative to traditional safe-haven assets like gold. Consider the comparison between Bitcoin and traditional treasury assets: Feature Traditional Treasury Assets (e.g., Cash, Bonds) Bitcoin (BTC) Inflation Protection Vulnerable to inflation, purchasing power erodes. Limited supply, designed to be deflationary; strong hedge potential. Supply Control Controlled by central banks; supply can be increased. Decentralized, fixed supply; predictable issuance schedule. Global Accessibility Subject to national borders, capital controls. Globally accessible, borderless; 24/7 liquidity. Volatility Generally low, but can be affected by interest rate changes. Historically high, but maturing; requires risk tolerance. Counterparty Risk Exposure to banks, governments, or issuing entities. Minimal if self-custodied; depends on chosen custodian. While Bitcoin’s volatility remains a key consideration for any treasury manager, its long-term performance and unique characteristics offer a compelling argument for its inclusion as a modern-day inflation hedge . Crafting a Robust Digital Asset Strategy: Key Considerations for Businesses Adopting a digital asset strategy , especially one involving a significant allocation to Bitcoin, is not without its complexities. Companies like TruSpine Technologies must navigate a landscape fraught with regulatory ambiguities, security concerns, and accounting challenges. For any firm considering this path, a robust framework is essential: Due Diligence and Research: Thoroughly understand Bitcoin’s technology, market dynamics, and historical performance. Assess its suitability for your company’s specific financial goals and risk appetite. Risk Management: Develop a comprehensive risk management framework. This includes setting clear allocation limits, establishing stop-loss strategies, and understanding the potential impact of price fluctuations on financial statements. Custody Solutions: Securely storing Bitcoin is paramount. Companies must choose between self-custody (requiring deep technical expertise and robust security protocols) and institutional-grade third-party custodians who offer insurance and advanced security measures. Regulatory and Legal Compliance: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies varies widely across jurisdictions and is constantly evolving. Companies must ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), tax, and securities laws. Accounting and Reporting: The accounting treatment for Bitcoin can be complex. Companies need to work with auditors and financial experts to ensure proper classification, valuation, and reporting of digital assets on their balance sheets. Board and Shareholder Communication: Transparent communication with the board of directors, shareholders, and investors is crucial. Clearly articulate the rationale, risks, and expected benefits of the digital asset strategy. These considerations highlight that while the benefits can be substantial, a successful digital asset strategy requires careful planning, expert advice, and a commitment to continuous monitoring. What Does TruSpine Technologies’ Move Mean for the Future of Corporate Reserves? The decision by TruSpine Technologies to hold Bitcoin in its treasury is more than just a financial maneuver; it’s a statement. It signals a growing acceptance and legitimization of Bitcoin as a viable, long-term asset class for corporate balance sheets, even outside the tech and finance sectors. As a medical device company, TruSpine’s move could inspire other firms in traditional industries to re-evaluate their treasury strategies. This development suggests several potential implications for the future of corporate reserves: Increased Mainstream Adoption: As more diverse companies embrace Bitcoin, it moves further from being a niche investment and closer to a standard component of corporate finance. Innovation in Treasury Management: Companies may become more experimental and open to integrating non-traditional assets into their portfolios, fostering innovation in treasury practices. Regulatory Clarity: Growing corporate adoption could pressure regulators to provide clearer guidelines and frameworks, reducing uncertainty and encouraging broader participation. Enhanced Market Maturity: Institutional involvement brings more capital, liquidity, and professional standards to the Bitcoin market, contributing to its overall maturity and stability. TruSpine Technologies’ pioneering step serves as a powerful example of how companies are adapting to a rapidly changing global economy. Their commitment to leveraging Bitcoin as a strategic hedge against inflation and political risks showcases a forward-thinking approach that could redefine corporate treasury management for years to come. In conclusion, TruSpine Technologies’ decision to adopt a Bitcoin treasury strategy marks a significant milestone in the ongoing integration of digital assets into mainstream corporate finance. It reflects a proactive response to macroeconomic challenges and highlights Bitcoin’s increasing recognition as a legitimate store of value and an effective inflation hedge . While the path to a fully integrated digital asset strategy involves careful navigation of risks and regulatory landscapes, the bold move by TruSpine Technologies underscores a revolutionary shift in how companies perceive and manage their financial futures.
