QCP Market Colour, 3 June 2026
1/ $BTC has had a rough start to June, falling around 11.6% on the week and struggling to reclaim key momentum levels. The move was not just about crypto-specific deleveraging. It came as the broader macro tape turned less forgiving, leaving high-beta assets with very little room to breathe.
6/ For $BTC, 67k to 68k remains the level to reclaim and hold. Until then, rallies are likely to stay vulnerable. This does not look like panic. It looks like a repricing of downside convexity as investors wait to see whether macro clears up, or whether stickier inflation, higher real rates and weaker liquidity start to bite harder.

From Long Gamma to Macro Drama
BTC breaks range as long-gamma support fades and macro pressures build
1/ BTC broke below $78k after spending most of the month pinned around $80k. Dealer long gamma, especially in IBIT options, had helped suppress volatility, but Friday’s expiry saw over $4B of IBIT options roll off, weakening that support.
4/ Until clearer tariff or US-Iran headlines emerge, crypto likely stays in a grinding range. Front-end vol spiked on the move lower but is already being faded, and call overwriters may soon return to pin spot near current levels.

BTC Holds the Line as Macro Catalysts Stack Up
BTC remains heavy but orderly, consolidating around $82K and holding above $80K despite ETF outflows and a slightly hotter CPI print. Downside momentum appears to be fading, but $84K remains the key topside level to clear.
4/ With crypto vol near YTD lows and the VIX around 18, we continue to expect range-bound trading near term, with 84k acting as key resistance.
