The post Bitcoin Supply At Loss Jumps To 8.33M BTC As 580k Coins Bought Above $72.9k Turn Underwater appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin’s latest pullback has not simply erased dollar gains. It has flipped a large block of recent buyers into an immediate loss position, creating a fresh overhang that market participants cannot ignore. According to the Glassnode update, supply held at a loss jumped to 8.33 million BTC once the price contracted to $72,900. That is up from 7.75 million BTC when the market stood at $76,600. The delta between the two loss tallies implies roughly 580,000 BTC was accumulated inside the $72,900–$76,600 window. Now that the price has slipped below the lower end of that range, the entire cohort sits underwater. For holders who entered during what they likely considered a local bid, the reversal changes the calculus. They are no longer waiting for a profit. They are deciding when to cut the loss. Why the $72.9k–$76.6k Cluster Matters Cohorts that form aro

The post Strategy keeps STRC payout unchanged amid push to maintain $100 share price appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Disclosure: The author of this story owns shares in Strategy (MSTR). Strategy, the world’s largest publicly traded corporate holder of bitcoin BTC$73,038.00, has maintained the 11.5% dividend rate on its perpetual preferred stock, Stretch (STRC), marking the fourth consecutive month without an increase. STRC has undergone seven dividend increases since its introduction in July 2025 with a 9% dividend rate. Strategy was able to hold the current rate this month after the stock’s volume-weighted average price (VWAP) reached $99.62, keeping shares close enough to their $100 par value, a key objective of the product’s design. Strategy markets STRC as a short-duration, high-yield savings alternative. The perpetual preferred stock pays monthly cash distributions, with the dividend rate reset each month to encourage trading near par value and minimize price volatility. Alth

Key Takeaways Onchain tracker Lookonchain says loracle.hl erased $42.2 million in gains via a HYPE short over just 18 days. The trader is now down a further $5.19 million as HYPE pushed to a record near $70 on May 31. The blowup has once again brought out the risk of fading a token whose own buyback fund keeps absorbing supply. A 10-Month Win Streak Undone in Under Three Weeks The collapse was flagged by Lookonchain, a blockchain analytics account that tracks large traders. According to its data, loracle.hl took roughly 10 months to accumulate $42.2 million in profit trading perpetual futures, the leveraged derivatives that let traders bet on price without holding the underlying asset. That patient track record evaporated in just 18 days once the trader opened a sizable short against HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid perpetuals exchange. As HYPE kept g
A trader known onchain as ‘loracle.hl’ spent nearly 10 months building $42.2 million in profits on perpetual futures, only to lose all of it (and then some) after betting against Hyperliquid’s HYPE token. The position has now been mostly closed at a steep loss. A 10-Month Win Streak Undone in Under Three Weeks The collapse […]
