The Ethereum Foundation has completed a months-long overhaul that included cutting about one-fifth of its workforce and reorganizing around new strategic priorities. The changes also come as the organization reduces its annual budget by about 40% and shifts toward a long-term, endowment-based funding model.

A long-overlooked cryptocurrency that has lagged bigger names could still surprise markets ahead of its next halving. Attention is returning as investors focus on possible price moves and any unexpected developments before the event. Its distinctive features and underappreciated potential are being cited as factors that could drive an abrupt turnaround and catch even veteran analysts off guard.

Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko said he views the Ethereum Foundation’s staffing decision as bullish. Robert Kiyosaki has also continued to publicly accumulate ETH and put an Ethereum price prediction at $95K. The discussion comes as traders look to technical signals for what ETH may do next.

Cardano users reported losing ADA and NFTs after an attacker gained access to private keys tied to the SecondFi wallet. The incident stems from compromised private keys, allowing the attacker to drain affected wallets.

SecondFi reported a wallet-generation vulnerability on 23 June that exposed private keys used to create Cardano (ADA) wallets, opening a path for unauthorized access. The exploit was linked to losses of roughly 16 million ADA, worth about $2.4 million. Further investigation suggested SecondFi may have lost up to 129 million ADA after other tokens and NFTs were also exposed. The incident has fueled broader concerns about user trust in the platform.

Arbitrum’s ARB broke below support as selling pressure intensified and momentum in fundamentals and on-chain capital faded.

XRP is retesting the $1.09-$1.10 support zone, with $1.05 marked as the next level below. For seven straight days, more XRP transactions have left Binance than entered it. XRP held on Binance has declined from about 3.25B to 2.69B over the past year. The setup pairs a bearish-looking chart with sustained movement of coins off the exchange.

The crypto market faced broad macro headwinds on June 23, 2026, forcing XRP (XRP) to break below its critical $1.12 support floor.

This drop occurred despite a highly bullish regulatory milestone in Europe and landmark institutional developments in Asia.
