‍Bitcoin Valuation Reset: NVT Golden Cross Signals Return to Fundamentals The Bitcoin market is entering a new phase where price aligns with network activity, moving away from speculation towards on-chain economics. The NVT Golden Cross, a metric comparing market cap to transaction volume, indicates Bitcoin may be exiting a period of undervaluation. Historically, when the NVT Golden Cross shows a significant divergence below its long-term trend, it signals a structural discount. Currently recovering from a cycle low, this suggests a narrowing "valuation gap" and a move towards more sustainable levels based on actual network usage, rather than short-term sentiment.

‍Raoul Pal Analyzes Zcash Surge: Rotation vs. Bull Trend Macro investor Raoul Pal suggests Zcash's significant price appreciation may stem from capital rotation, not a sustainable bull trend. Despite a ~699% year-to-date increase, ZEC has seen a 37% decline over the past 30 days, trading around $385.81. Factors driving Zcash's market cap growth from under $1B to over $7B include Grayscale's filing for a spot ETF, endorsements projecting $10,000 targets, and growing demand for privacy. ZEC's performance will indicate whether this is a temporary spike or sustained institutional accumulation.

‍SEC Classifies Bitcoin Mining Hosting as Securities in $48M VBit Case The SEC has filed a lawsuit against VBit Technologies and its founder, Danh Vo, alleging that their Bitcoin mining hosting services constitute unregistered securities. The regulator claims VBit misappropriated approximately $48 million in investor funds between 2018 and 2022 through a fraudulent scheme. The SEC applied the Howey test, arguing that "Hosting Agreements" met the criteria for investment contracts due to investors' expectation of profit, reliance on VBit's efforts, and a common enterprise. Industry experts suggest VBit's decision to pool all hashrate under company control was a key factor in the SEC's aggressive stance. This case could significantly impact how mining-as-a-service providers structure their operations.
