Bitcoin Nears $63.5K Weekly Close as Trader Flags ‘Terrible’ Monday Risk

Bitcoin finished Sunday’s weekly close hovering near two-week highs, as traders positioned for potential volatility ahead of the new week. The market’s focus remains tightly centered on a long-term technical level: the 200-week simple moving average (SMA), a benchmark that often influences whether bull trends can sustain or fade. At the same time, some analysts are pointing to shifting macro conditions and renewed demand around US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as possible support for risk assets, arguing that the sector may be developing “greener shoots” after recent stress. Key takeaways BTC/USD is trading near the 200-week SMA around $62,700, which traders say is likely to determine near-term direction. Several market participants have warned that Mondays have historically delivered weak BTC performance over the past seven weeks. Short liquidations appear to have helped BTC grind higher, with CoinGlass reporting $167 million in total crypto liquidations over the pri...

South Africa Tax Authority Issues Proposed Crypto Tax Guidance

South Africa’s tax authority, the South African Revenue Service (SARS), has published draft guidance that explains how crypto assets should be taxed under the country’s existing income tax and capital gains tax frameworks. The proposed rules—released on Wednesday—aim to offer interpretive clarity rather than create entirely new obligations. In a draft notice issued for public comment, SARS indicates that many common crypto activities, including trading, swapping and using crypto to pay for goods or services, are likely to be treated as disposals for tax purposes. However, the tax outcome would still depend on the taxpayer’s specific facts and circumstances, with the guidance stressing that intention and conduct over time matter. Key takeaways SARS says crypto should generally be treated as an intangible asset, not legal tender or foreign currency, for tax purposes. Many crypto activities may trigger tax events because they can be viewed as disposals under existing income tax and ca...

South Africa Drafts Crypto Tax Rules Using Existing Tax System

South Africa’s tax authority, the South African Revenue Service (SARS), has released draft guidance intended to clarify how crypto assets should be treated under the country’s existing income tax and capital gains tax rules. The proposal reiterates that most crypto-related activity is generally viewed as involving taxable “disposals,” while stressing that the correct tax treatment can vary depending on a taxpayer’s specific facts. SARS published the draft guidelines on Wednesday as part of a process that invites public comment. If the guidance is adopted, it could have practical implications for millions of users, particularly given SARS’ earlier reporting that at least 5.8 million residents held crypto assets in 2024. Key takeaways SARS’ draft guidance frames crypto assets as intangible assets for tax purposes—rather than legal tender or foreign currency. Trading, swapping, and spending are generally treated as disposals that can trigger tax events under existing rules. How a ta...

Binance has seen a pronounced shift toward withdrawal activity, with weekly net outflows jumping to $1.23 billion—more than doubling from the week prior—while Ethereum withdrawals rose to their highest level in over three years. The pattern is drawing renewed attention from on-chain analysts because it suggests large volumes of ETH may be moving off exchanges, even as ether’s price begins to stabilize. Data from DefiLlama, as reviewed by Cointelegraph, shows Binance recorded $1.23 billion in net outflows for the week beginning June 29. That figure represents a 207% increase versus about $400 million in net outflows during the preceding week, while monthly net outflows totaled roughly $3.2 billion. At the same time, CryptoQuant community analyst Darkfost reported that Binance’s Ethereum withdrawal transactions reached a multi-year peak—over 166,000 withdrawals in a single day. Key takeaways Binance’s weekly net outflows rose to $1.23 billion in the week starting June 29, up 207% from ...
