Oil and Treasury yields fell after fresh U.S.-Iran talks eased inflation fears, but bitcoin and ether failed to catch a bid as fresh Coldcard-linked sweeps pushed observed losses to nearly $89 million.

  • Major cryptocurrencies fell Monday despite improving macro conditions, with bitcoin slipping about 1% to $62,800 and ether dropping to $1,858.
  • The declines came as a widening exploit of Coldcard hardware wallets has drained roughly 1,367 bitcoin, or nearly $89 million, from about 4,585 addresses across three attack waves.
  • Crypto’s weakness contrasted with falling oil prices, lower Treasury yields and rising stock futures, suggesting the drag is coming from market-specific security fears rather than broader economic forces.
