Crypto enters “Extreme Fear”! Crypto Falls 3-8%!
Crypto majors continued their decline, dropping another 3–8% as the selloff persisted. Bitcoin (BTC) fell 3% to $104,500, Ethereum (ETH) dropped 5% to $3,520, Binance Coin (BNB) slid 6% to $955, and Solana (SOL) plunged 8% to $162. Meanwhile, Decred (DCR) surged 111%, Dash (DASH) climbed 50%, and Internet Computer (ICP) gained 30%, leading the day’s top movers. Liquidations totaled over $1.2 billion on Monday, with long positions accounting for 90% of the losses, and the Crypto Fear & Greed Index slipped into “Extreme Fear.” Balancer suffered a $128 million exploit following a so-called “vibe-coded” hack, prompting Berachain to halt its chain amid cascading pool drains across Ethereum and linked networks. In industry developments, Hollywood.com announced plans for an entertainment-focused prediction market in partnership with Crypto.com, while Ripple launched prime brokerage services for digital assets in the U.S. Strategy revealed plans to issue 3.5 million shares of its 10% Series A Perpetual Stream Preferred Stock ($STRE), with proceeds earmarked for Bitcoin purchases.
