3. Analyst Insights


3.1 Analyst: Bitcoin Demand Slowing Down, Potential Support Around $92,000


Julio Moreno, Head of Research at CryptoQuant, noted that Bitcoin demand is showing signs of cooling after a period of rapid price acceleration that pushed BTC close to $112,000. While spot demand continues to grow, the pace has slowed and now falls below historical trends. Whale and ETF purchases of Bitcoin have halved, and demand from new investors is also waning.

In the futures market, investors have recently opted to take profits and are beginning to build new short positions. If demand remains weak, Bitcoin may find support near $92,000—a level that aligns with traders’ on-chain realized price and typically serves as a support zone during bull markets. Should this support fail, the next key level could be around $81,000, near the lower bound of traders’ on-chain cost basis.


3.2 Arthur Hayes: Market Weakness Will Pass—Bitcoin’s Status as a Safe-Haven Asset Is Undeniable


On June 23, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes shared on social media that "the money printers are spinning faster in the name of patriotic duty." He expressed confidence that the current market weakness is temporary and that Bitcoin will undoubtedly demonstrate its role as a safe-haven asset.

4.1 Texas Governor Signs HB 4488 to Protect State Bitcoin Reserves as a Permanent Fund


According to Crypto Briefing, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed House Bill 4488 (HB 4488), which aims to safeguard certain state government funds—specifically, any Bitcoin reserves created outside the state treasury—by excluding them from the general revenue fund. The bill also exempts the reserve fund and other special-purpose funds from being automatically dissolved in 2025.

Governor Abbott has not yet made a decision on Senate Bill 21 (SB21), which would authorize Texas to invest in Bitcoin and other digital assets with a market cap of at least $500 billion. Currently, only Bitcoin meets that threshold.

SB21 was submitted to the governor on June 1, and he must sign or veto it by June 22. As the bill was introduced near the end of the legislative session, Texas law requires the governor to take action within 20 days after adjournment.

5. Market Highlights



According to the Seoul Economic Daily, South Korean payment service provider Kakao Pay has registered a series of trademarks related to a potential stablecoin venture.

The trademarks are categorized under virtual asset financial transactions, electronic transfers, and intermediary services.

Kakao Pay stated that it has “not yet finalized specific plans,” but explained the move was made to “secure trademark rights in advance for potential stablecoin-related business.”
