BlackRock moved closer to launching its iShares Bitcoin Premium Income ETF (ticker: BITA) after filing Form 8-A with the SEC on June 11. The prospectus lists a 0.65% sponsor fee and a seed portfolio that includes 109.96 BTC and 90,901 IBIT shares, with the strategy designed to sell covered calls to seek monthly income. A Bloomberg ETF analyst said the filing often precedes a launch within about a week, placing June 18 as a possible start date, though not guaranteed.

XRP’s weighted sentiment has fallen to its lowest point since October 2025, even as the token trades around $1.1287 and continues to print lower highs after the June 8 rejection at $1.18.

Miner indicators worsened too, as the 30-day Puell Multiple slid to 0.74 and Miner Capitulation hit -21%, raising concerns that deteriorating conditions could echo 2022-style equipment shutdowns.
