The post Bitcoin reclaims $64k – But Strategy’s $216mln underwater sale threatens momentum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin climbed above $64,200 in early trading on Friday, the 10th of July, strengthening its recovery even as Strategy sold Bitcoin at a loss. Holding above this level into next week could reinforce the recovery. However, the bigger question is who has been selling into the rally, and at what price. Strategy’s recent disposals weighed on sentiment. Even so, its average acquisition price remains well above that of retail investors on Binance. That gap shifts attention away from Strategy and toward retail holders, who now sit comfortably in profit and may choose to sell into strength. Did Strategy’s Bitcoin sales really matter? Strategy recently announced plans to sell part of its Bitcoin [BTC] holdings through its Digital Credit Capital Framework. The company said the proceeds would fund dividend payments and share repurchases. On the 6th of July, Strategy sol

The post Empery Digital sells 1,400 BTC for $65M to fund AI pivot appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Empery Digital (NASDAQ: EMPD) sold 1,400 Bitcoins from the stash it built throughout 2025 at an average of $62,200 a coin, raising about $87.1 million to invest in AI data centers and pay down debt. The Nasdaq-listed company started the sale in May and is now left holding 1,514 BTC. Why did Empery Digital sell its Bitcoin? Barely one year ago, Empery Digital rebranded from Volcon Inc. and changed its whole business plan from electric vehicles to focusing on holding Bitcoin. Now, it is walking away from that strategy to chase the booming demand for AI computing power. Why? The simple answer is that its Bitcoin investment lost a lot of value. Cryptopolitan previously reported that Empery bought most of its Bitcoin when prices were around $117,000 per coin. However, when prices fell below $70,000 earlier this year, those holdings dropped more than 40% in value. The company revealed in an

The post Founders Debate Ethereum L2 Value After Robinhood Chain Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum L2 debate returns as Robinhood launches an ETH-denominated Layer-2 network. Founders debate whether Layer-2s strengthen Ethereum or shift activity from its base layer.  Leighton Cusack said Ethereum’s value comes from ETH adoption, liquidity, and asset issuance. The role of Ethereum in the Layer-2 ecosystem is back in focus after the launch of Robinhood’s Ethereum-denominated Layer-2 network.  World Network co-founder Leighton Cusack argued that recent bullish developments are being framed as negatives because of weak market sentiment. Cusack said Ethereum has been “so abused for the last two years” that even positive news, like Robinhood launching an ETH-denominated L2, is being portrayed negatively. “Narratives follow price,” he added. L2s and Ethereum’s Value Capture In response, Multicoin Capital managing partner Kyle Samani repeated his long-held view that Layer-2
