💰 QCP Capital says its trading desk saw 'bullish flows' during bitcoin price dip
Bitcoin and ether are at a “buy the dip” moment in between post-payrolls data and at least one more interest-rate cut from the U.S., Singapore-based crypto trading firm QCP Capital said in a recent market update. Last Friday’s non-farm payroll data, a key indicator of U.S. job market, showed a stronger-than-expected monthly gain of 272,000 in May, exceeding the forecast of 185,000.

💰 Bitcoin miner balances fall below 1.81 million BTC, lowest in years post-halving
Bitcoin miner balances have shown significant shifts in recent months. The balance in miner wallets has seen a steady decline since late 2023, reaching lows not seen in years, reflecting miners’ responses to the recent Bitcoin halving in April 2024. According to Glassnode data, the miner balance dropped from around 1.84 million BTC in early 2023 to close to 1.8 million BTC by May 2024. This reduction is indicative of increased sell-offs by miners to cover operational costs, likely exacerbated by the reduced block rewards post-halving.
