Bitcoin advances, holds above key technical level that ether, solana can't break through

Bullish crypto futures bets continue to get squeezed. Over the past 24 hours, exchanges liquidated $378 million, with more than $207 million coming from long positions.
Open interest (OI) in bitcoin and ether futures has remained largely stable, indicating little appetite for fresh leverage. In zcash (ZEC), open interest has fallen to 2.28 million tokens, extending its pullback from recent highs above 2.5 million. This reflects a lightening of positioning as ZEC’s recovery from Friday’s sub-$300 low has stalled. The token has retreated from $480 to around $430 in just two days.
The 24-hour OI-adjusted cumulative volume delta (CVD) presents a mixed picture. Tokens like BTC, XMR, ETH, HBAR, and SHIB recorded positive CVDs, showing buyers lifting offers. Meanwhile, TON, XLM, HYPE, TRX, XRP, and several others saw negative readings.
BTC’s 30-day implied volatility index (BVIV) remains steady below 50%, suggesting traders don’t expect volatility related to tomorrow's SpaceX IPO to spill over into crypto. Ether’s volatility index (EVIV) is also easing from Friday’s peak.
On Deribit, bitcoin and ether puts continue trading at a premium to calls across all major expiries. The $58,000 BTC put expiring June 13 was the most actively traded contract in the past 24 hours.
