According to Lookonchain statistics, as the cryptocurrency market continues to decline, the unrealized loss of Bitmine, an Ethereum reserve company supported by Tom Lee, has exceeded the unrealized loss of Strategy's Bitcoin holdings.Data shows that Bitmine currently holds 5,416,901 ETH, valued at approximately $10.03 billion at current market prices, resulting in an unrealized loss of about $8.9 billion compared to the purchase cost.Meanwhile, Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, holds 843,706 BTC, with a current market value of approximately $56.26 billion, resulting in an unrealized loss of about $7.6 billion.

According to CoinDesk, Tom Lee, Head of Research at Fundstrat and Chairman of Bitmine, stated at the Proof of Talk conference in Paris that he expects Ethereum to eventually reach $250,000, with artificial intelligence and tokenization driving significant changes in financial infrastructure. Lee pointed out that with the arrival of the machine-to-machine economy, Ethereum will transition from a speculative digital asset to a major global currency for payment automation and computational processing power.Bitmine recently acquired 111,942 ETH, increasing its holdings to nearly 5.4 million ETH, accounting for about 4.47% of the circulating supply. Lee stated that Bitmine is now eligible for inclusion in the Russell 1000 index, with its staking model outperforming holding spot ETH. He believes that enterprise validators will replace the shrinking Ethereum Foundation as key managers of the network, with corporate entities currently jointly controlling 7% of Ethereum's circulating supply.Lee mentioned that if Ethereum achieves the $250,000 target, Bitmine's stock price will reach $5,000. He also noted that the current bearish sentiment indicates the market bottom for Bitcoin and Ethereum, suggesting that selling during bearish times is akin to selling at the bottom.

According to The Defiant, Ethereum researchers Thomas Coratger, Justin Drake, and others released a proposal on June 1 at the Ethereum research forum, planning to establish a dedicated XMSS public key registry as the first concrete protocol upgrade for Ethereum's migration to post-quantum cryptography.This registry allows approximately 1 million validators to pre-register quantum-safe XMSS keys before the full switch to the BLS signature system, serving as an important "preheating phase" to reduce the impact of the subsequent switch on network stability. This proposal has been included in the Ethereum Foundation's protocol team's Strawmap roadmap, marking the first protocol fork on that roadmap.

Hyperliquid attracts institutional funds looking to trade diverse assets in a 24/7 crypto-native environment by offering perpetual contracts for pre-IPO companies like SpaceX, tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets. The platform's revenue is projected to be around $800 million in 2025.
