๐Ÿช™ The owner of a rare physical Casascius coin with a denomination of 25 BTC uncovered the protective hologram and for the first time in 12 years transferred the bitcoins to a new wallet. When the coin was released in the early 2010s, the 25 BTC stored on it were worth less than $100, and today โ€” around $1,800,000.

The most interesting thing is that along with gaining access to the bitcoins, the coin lost its collector's value โ€” after the hologram was removed, it is no longer considered an "untouched" artifact, for which collectors are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars over and above the BTC value.

๐Ÿฅบ Michael Saylor believes, that the current decline of the first cryptocurrency is not due to a loss of interest in BTC, but with a massive capital reallocation into the AI sector.

According to him, over the past six months, markets have directed approximately $400 billion to AI development, while from Bitcoin ETFs since mid-May approximately $4 billion has been withdrawn โ€” but he calls volatility not a problem, but an opportunity for investors.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ The Central Bank wants to take into account experience with cryptocurrencies when obtaining qualified investor status โ€” if a person has already invested in such "risky instruments" as crypto, this may be considered confirmation of experience for access to other complex assets.

The amendments are planned to be included in the general package of laws on cryptocurrency regulation in Russia, which is currently being finalized for the second reading in the State Duma.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง Russia imposed sanctions against a 17-year-old Brit for a study, in which he accused A7A5 of circumventing Western sanctions โ€” in March, the teenager published a report claiming that the ruble stablecoin is backed by deposits from Russia's Promsvyazbank and used to evade restrictions.

The guy himself stated that his work "hit a nerve" with the Russian government, and called on Western countries to increase pressure on exchanges that allow converting A7A5 into cash.

According to CertiK, the stablecoin processed over $110 billion in transactions, despite sanctions from the US, EU, and UK.

๐Ÿช™ In the USA, for the first time, a mortgage was arranged where Bitcoin was used as collateral for a home purchase โ€” the borrower did not have to sell BTC for the down payment.

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ From July 1, the MiCA transitional period actually ends in the EU โ€” crypto companies must now operate under a single CASP license, which can be "passported" across the entire European Union.

This is market maturation, but not a gift for startups โ€” capital, compliance, IT security, and DORA requirements make entry expensive and complex.

In essence, Europe is closing the era of crypto-anarchy โ€” it will become increasingly difficult for small players to survive, and the main beneficiaries will be banks, large exchanges, and companies with strong infrastructure.

The license does not guarantee earnings โ€” it rather becomes an expensive pass into a market where margins are already low.
