In today’s crypto news (June 10), Bitcoin ended a few days of positive price action by crashing nearly -3% overnight, to $61,000, before recovering to $61,500. However, traders are seemingly learning, as there wasn’t a huge liquidation event during the BTC drop, with just $400M in positions wiped out, though more than $300M of that was from long trades.
Of the other major caps, XRP and HYPE are two of the worst performers in the past 24 hours, down -5% and -11%, respectively. Daily trading volume is just $85Bn, down from over $200Bn two days ago, signaling that traders are sitting on their hands.
Bitcoin ETF flows continue to lean bearish, following Monday’s -$90M in outflows and another -$70M in outflows yesterday. The total net inflow across Bitcoin ETFs now sits at +$54.21Bn (680,870 BTC), with total net assets totaling $102.51Bn
The Fear & Greed Index has fallen back under 10, flashing 9/100 today, a level of ‘Extreme Fear’ that has historically signaled a good buying opportunity, but ongoing geopolitical tensions and a global rise in the cost of living could make that buy signal redundant.
The Trump Family Has Reportedly Made Over $2.3Bn From Crypto
A Reuters investigation has discovered that the family of US President Donald Trump may have earned about $2.3Bn from crypto projects linked to its name while taking little financial risk of its own. Analysts compared those gains with the results of investors, who, according to Reuters estimates, collectively lost a similar amount.
As part of its investigation, Reuters reviewed corporate filings, blockchain data, and statements from companies connected to the Trump family’s crypto initiatives. These included World Liberty Financial, the TRUMP memecoin, and the companies ALT5 Sigma and American Bitcoin.
According to the report, the Trump family’s costs of launching its largest crypto projects were minimal and may have totaled less than $1M. A substantial share of ownership stakes in some companies was reportedly obtained without direct cash investments.
The largest source of income was identified as sales of World Liberty Financial tokens. Reuters estimated that the project may have generated more than $1.4Bn for the Trump family. Another $616M, according to analysts, was linked to the TRUMP memecoin.
Reuters found Trump crypto ventures have generated at least $2.3 billion in profit for the family since Trump retook the presidency. Investor net losses totaled $2.3 billion at the end of April, according to the analysis https://t.co/bE2WsLgCeC @specialreports pic.twitter.com/qWuQcX4EfY

Japanese SBI Shinsei Bank Offers ‘Crypto Vouchers’ to Customers
Japan’s SBI Shinsei Bank is set to launch a new service that will allow customers to receive cryptocurrency vouchers based on their account balances. These vouchers can be exchanged for Bitcoin, Ethereum, or XRP.
According to reports from Nikkei, depositors will receive vouchers equal to 20% of the interest they accrue. These bonuses will be added to their regular interest payments in yen.
To utilize the vouchers, customers will need to open an account on SBI VC Trade, the cryptocurrency platform operated by the SBI Group. This initiative effectively transforms a traditional savings product into a gateway for accessing cryptocurrencies. Customers will not need to purchase digital assets directly; instead, they can gain exposure to them through this bonus program.
Before the full launch, SBI Shinsei will reportedly conduct a three-month campaign starting on Wednesday. This campaign will apply to both ordinary and fixed-term deposits, with terms ranging from three months to five years.

Bears Seize Control of XRP Price: How Low Could it Go?
The XRP price is under serious pressure. The token slipped to around $1.11 this morning, down roughly -5% overnight despite a brief intraday bounce yesterday, and the technical picture is not flattering. Whether this is a temporary shakeout or the beginning of something uglier depends on a handful of key price levels that traders are watching very closely right now.
XRP broke below a short-term ascending channel on June 10, 2026, sliding under $1.15 after failing to hold a bullish trend line near $1.1620. The token had clawed back from a swing low of $1.05 earlier this month, reaching a local high of $1.1863, but that recovery ran out of steam fast.

EU Crypto News: The Crypto Cold War Is Here Between EU and Russia
In EU crypto news, within 24 hours of each other, Russia and the European Union each moved to restrict the same class of crypto assets, for completely opposite reasons. Russia’s Deputy Finance Minister Ivan Chebeskov, speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on June 9, 2026, announced fees of 0.5–3% on assets classified as Russia-unfriendly crypto, explicitly naming USDT, USDC, and BNB.
The same day, the EU unveiled its proposed 21st sanctions package, the first to give Brussels the legal power to impose a full operational ban on any foreign country’s crypto sector if it is found to be helping Russia evade financial restrictions.
