The locked position is now valued at $1.35 million but remains illiquid, resulting in an approximate 15% drop in its USDC vault, a 12% decline in SPYx, and a 9% decline in JitoSOL. The incident adds reputational pressure on PiggyBank, as on-chain investigator ZachXBT had previously alleged that insiders controlled over 95% of the LAB token supply. A detailed post-mortem and remediation plan is expected next week. Bitmine Chair Tom Lee Says Stock Bull Market Remains Intact, Calls Crypto Key to TokenizationKey Takeaways:Bull market still intact: Tom LeeCrypto sole path to tokenizationAI-driven machine economy aheadSummary:Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee urged investors to disregard misleading narratives, asserting that the current stock market bull run remains fundamentally sound.

Grachev stopped short of predicting the scenario, expressing hope it does not materialize, but advised traders to prepare contingency plans for a BTC price range of $10,000 to $20,000. The warning reflects growing concern that concentrated institutional BTC leverage could amplify downside volatility far beyond historical norms. His comments add to a broader debate about the systemic risks posed by corporate Bitcoin accumulation strategies at scale. DFG CEO Rejects Tom Lee’s $250,000 Ether Call, Doubles Down On Bitcoin Key Takeaways:ETH $250K prediction rejectedL2 fee shift dilutes Ether valueBTC peak target: ~$125,000Summary:DFG founder and CEO James Wo pushed back against Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee's bullish $250,000 ether price target, arguing that Ethereum's value proposition is structurally weakened as activity and fee revenue migrate to Layer-2 networks — making a new all-time high for ETH unlikely. Speaking at the Proof of Talk conference in Paris, Wo contrasted this with bitcoin's stronger institutional consensus and safe-haven status. He forecast a near-term BTC correction to the $60,000–$62,000 range before a longer-term peak around $125,000, with a new cycle high expected in 2027 or 2028. His remarks reflect a growing divergence in institutional views on the relative merit of BTC versus ETH at this stage of the market cycle.Market movers:ETH: $1641.63 (+3.47%)BNB: $596.64 (+2.51%)XRP: $1.1611 (+5.32%)SOL: $65.81 (+3.59%)TRX: $0.3286 (+2.59%)DOGE: $0.08569 (+3.90%)U: $1.0004 (-0.01%)XAUT: $4311.45 (+0.43%)WBTC: $62533.27 (+2.32%)ZEC: $402.5 (+6.55%)
