Still, it noted that crypto was among the hardest-hit market segments last week, largely due to political turmoil.<\/p>\n<p>Both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) entered negative territory this week, weighed down by the public split between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Their public arguments have significant implications for crypto, as Musk has been a major advocate for the industry.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14386651\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" ><\/source><\/p>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Weekly and YTD performance of major crypto and traditional assets | Source: Binance Research<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As a result, Bitcoin fell to a weekly low of $101,500, while Ethereum dropped to $2,388.

JP Morgan announced that it would accept crypto ETF holdings as collateral for loans. The bank will also factor these funds into assessments of clients\u2019 net worth.<\/p>\n<p>On the regulatory front, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued new guidance on proof-of-stake networks. According to the SEC under the Trump administration, staking is no longer considered a securities activity. This is significant for companies looking to launch Solana (SOL) and Ethereum staking ETFs.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Circle went public on June 5 in a strong showing, with its stock gaining 120% on its first day of trading.
