Hello. This is the TokenPost podcast. We will go through the important cryptocurrency news together on your way home, based on our TokenPost articles. Today is June 19, 2025. Let's first look at the market prices? It's a little past 4 PM, and the overall mood seems mixed. BTC has slightly dropped by 0.24% compared to yesterday, currently trading in the late $104,000 range. Ethereum is similar. ETH has also declined by 0.21%, recording around $2,520. On the other hand, XRP has risen slightly by 0.04%, which is almost flat. SOL has dropped a bit, showing a 1.40% decline.
Host
Yes. While the prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum have slightly decreased, interestingly, the Bitcoin market dominance has risen by 0.06 percentage points, exceeding 64%.
TokenPost
Ah, so the price dropped, but the market share increased.
Host
Yes, which means other altcoins have relatively dropped more. Overall, the market seems to be in a cautious wait-and-see mood.
TokenPost
I see. While altcoins are hesitating, Bitcoin has slightly gained market share. Alright, let's move on to the news. Today, the most notable article seems to be a domestic news item. The Financial Services Commission is launching an investigation into the fee structures of domestic exchanges.
Host
Yes. This is not just about examining fees, but also has a background of fulfilling a presidential campaign promise. It was also mentioned alongside a plan to prepare for the introduction of a Bitcoin spot ETF in the second half of the year.
TokenPost
Preparing for ETF introduction.
Host
This could directly impact domestic investors. It's an area we need to pay attention to in terms of how policies might change. It could bring positive changes in transaction costs or investment accessibility.
TokenPost
The fees and ETF could indeed be the start of significant changes. Let's look at some international news. Regarding Ohio, a bill has passed the House to exempt capital gains tax on cryptocurrency transactions under $200.
Host
Yes, $200 isn't a large amount, but it has symbolic meaning. It can be seen as an attempt to reduce the tax burden on using cryptocurrencies for small daily transactions.
TokenPost
Ah, I see the context.
Host
Of course, it still needs to pass the Senate and be signed by the governor, but this movement itself seems to show the process of entering the institutional framework.
TokenPost
Small amount, but meaningful. Got it. I'll quickly go through other headlines. There's news that the Ethereum spot ETF has recorded net inflows for three consecutive trading days.
Host
Yes, steady inflow of funds could be a signal of continued institutional investor interest.
TokenPost
However, many analysts say it's too early to declare an altcoin season. They suggest Ethereum's price needs to rise more strongly, such as breaking through important resistance levels like the $4,000 mark, for the overall market mood to revive.
Host
And lastly, a really interesting piece of data about Bitcoin held for over 10 years.
TokenPost
This is newly added every day.
Host
The volume of long-term inactive Bitcoin is increasing more than the daily newly mined amount. On average, about 550 Bitcoins per day are entering long-term inactive status. As you know, daily newly mined Bitcoin is around 450 after the halving.
TokenPost
Right, 450.
Host
So more Bitcoin is being locked in long-term holdings than the new supply. Currently, about 17% of all Bitcoin has been dormant for over 10 years.
TokenPost
Wow, 17%? That's impressive.
Host
Yes, this shows the psychology of Bitcoin holders is very robust, believing in its long-term value, regardless of short-term market volatility.
TokenPost
I see. Looking at today's news, on one side, there are movements in regulatory environment like the Financial Services Commission's investigation and tax exemptions, and on the other side, we see strong belief from long-term holders confirmed by data. We'll need to continue watching how these various factors will shape the market.
Host
Exactly. Especially regulatory changes and movements by financial authorities can significantly impact the market, so it's good to pay continuous attention to related news.
TokenPost
That's all we've prepared for today. We hope our discussion has been somewhat helpful during your commute home. This was the TokenPost podcast. Have a pleasant evening.
