Risk assets fell on Monday, with the Nasdaq 100 down 0.7%, bitcoin near $82,700 and ether holding just above $2,500, while crypto-related stocks slid, led by Securitize's 14% drop. Bitcoin miners expanding into AI infrastructure, including Bitdeer, Cipher Mining and TeraWulf, lost about 3-4%, and Micron fell 4% below $1,000 for the first time since mid-September. Bitmine bought roughly $32 million of ether, bringing holdings to 6,028,946 ETH, about 4.9% of supply, and is weeks away from ending its buying spree. Strategy acquired 250 bitcoin for $21.5 million, raising its total to 848,250 BTC. Markets stayed cautious as the dollar and bond yields remained firm, with focus on Wednesday's U.S. inflation report.
