Bitmine could soon reduce the pace of its ether purchases. At Consensus 2026 in Miami, Tom Lee indicated that the company is quickly approaching its accumulation goal.

American crypto is entering a fragile zone. After the GENIUS Act, the advances of the CLARITY Act, and the regulated rise of prediction markets, the 2026 midterms could decide whether this sequence becomes a true regulatory turning point or just a political parenthesis.
Crypto exchanges are emptying their bitcoins at a pace rarely seen in two years. In less than three months, nearly 100,000 BTC have left Binance, OKX, and Gemini, amounting to over 8 billion dollars withdrawn from the market. While the available supply contracts, long-term investors quietly strengthen their positions. This combination of shrinking reserves and returning demand is beginning to fuel speculation around a possible supply shock on bitcoin.
Bullish projections are multiplying on bitcoin. Supported by flows to US spot ETFs and the return of institutional investors, the market now sees a target of 115,000 dollars before the end of the year.

Bitcoin shows a clear slowdown after several weeks of gains supported by institutional flows. American spot ETFs recorded $268 million of net outflows in one session, while liquidations accelerate in the derivatives markets. This renewed tension comes as investors are already watching another key factor: the future direction of the US Federal Reserve and its potential impact on the crypto market.
AI enters a new phase of financial excess. The American startup Anthropic is preparing a fundraising that could propel its valuation towards 1,000 billion dollars. A perspective still unimaginable two years ago, but which reflects the explosion of demand around generative artificial intelligence models. Anthropic now wants to directly compete with OpenAI on the financial and technological power front. The company behind Claude plans to raise up to 50 billion dollars this summer. If the operation succeeds, its valuation could approach 900 billion dollars, with the symbolic trillion threshold now in sight.
