Abstract

Buyers seem to be returning to the markets. According to SoSoValue data, US Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) witnessed net inflows of $744.4 million last week after recording five consecutive weeks of outflows.

Bitcoin (BTC) rose 4.25% last week to close above $86,000, and the bulls extended the recovery above $88,700 on March 24. 10x Research founder Markus Thielen said in a March 23 report that Bitcoin’s reversal indicators had turned positive, suggesting a “renewed uptrend.”


Buyers seem to be returning to the markets. According to SoSoValue data, US Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) witnessed net inflows of $744.4 million last week after recording five consecutive weeks of outflows. However, Ether ETFs could not replicate a similar performance as they witnessed a fourth successive week of net outflows.

Select analysts believe Bitcoin could run into significant resistance near $90,000, starting a pullback toward $80,000. In contrast, BitMEX co-founder and chief investment officer of Maelstrom, Arthur Hayes, said in a post on X that Bitcoin will rally to $110,000 before it drops to $76,500.


Could Bitcoin bulls maintain the momentum and push the price above $90,000? Will the altcoins follow Bitcoin higher? Let’s analyze the charts to find out.


S&P 500 Index price analysis


The S&P 500 Index (SPX) has risen to the 20-day exponential moving average (5,742), where the bears are expected to step in. 

SPX daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewIf the price turns down from the 20-day EMA, the bears will attempt to drag the index below 5,670. If they succeed, the index may retest the critical support zone between 5,600 and 5,500.


On the other hand, a close above the 20-day EMA will be the first indication that the correction may be ending. The index will then try to rise toward the 50-day simple moving average (5,913).


US Dollar Index price analysis


The US Dollar Index (DXY) rebounded off the 103.37 level on March 19, indicating that the bulls are trying to form a floor.

The index could reach the 20-day EMA (104.59), which is an important level to watch out for. If the index turns down sharply from the 20-day EMA, the bears will again try to sink the price below 103.37. If they can pull it off, the index may collapse to 102 and eventually to 101.


Contrarily, a break and close above the 20-day EMA suggests the bears are losing their grip. The index could climb to the breakdown level of 105.42, which is likely to act as a formidable barrier.


Bitcoin price analysis


Bitcoin broke above the 20-day EMA ($85,572) on March 23, suggesting the start of a strong recovery.

BTC/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewThe 20-day EMA is flattening out, and the RSI has risen into positive territory, signaling a minor advantage to the bulls. The relief rally is expected to face stiff resistance at the 50-day SMA ($90,290). If the price turns down from the 50-day SMA but finds support at the 20-day EMA, it will indicate a positive sentiment. That increases the possibility of a rally to $95,000 and then to $100,000.


Conversely, if the price turns down from the 50-day SMA and breaks below the 20-day EMA, it will suggest that the bears remain active at higher levels. A drop below $83,000 could sink the BTC/USDT pair to $80,000.


Ether price analysis


Ether (ETH) bulls are again attempting to drive the price above the 20-day EMA ($2,057) and the breakdown level of $2,111.

ETH/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewIf they manage to do that, it will signal that the markets have rejected the breakdown below $2,111. The ETH/USDT pair could rally to the 50-day SMA ($2,356) and subsequently to $2,550.


Time is running out of the bears. If they want to retain the advantage, they will have to defend the $2,111 level and swiftly pull the price below $1,750. That may resume the downtrend toward the next support at $1,550.


XRP price analysis


XRP (XRP) turned up from the 20-day EMA ($2.38) on March 23, signaling that the bulls are using the dips to buy.

XRP/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingView

The bulls will try to push the price above $2.59. If they manage to do that, the XRP/USDT pair could climb to the resistance line, where sellers are expected to mount a strong defense. 


If the price turns down from the resistance line but rebounds off the 20-day EMA, it will indicate a positive sentiment. That improves the prospects of a break above the resistance line. The pair may then rally to $3.


Sellers will have to tug the price below $2.20 to seize control. That could clear the path for a retest of the vital support at $2.


BNB price analysis


BNB (BNB) has bounced off the moving averages, indicating a change in sentiment from selling on rallies to buying on dips.

BNB/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingView

If the price rises and breaks above $644, it will indicate the resumption of the recovery. The BNB/USDT pair could ascend to $686 and above it to the crucial resistance at $745. 


The 20-day EMA ($613) is the strong support to watch out for on the downside. A break and close below the 20-day EMA could weaken the bullish momentum. The pair may slide to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of $591 and then to the 50% retracement level of $575.


Solana price analysis


Solana (SOL) broke above the 20-day EMA ($135) on March 24, signaling that the bulls are attempting a comeback.

SOL/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingView

If the price maintains above the 20-day EMA, the SOL/USDT pair could rise to the 50-day SMA ($158). Sellers will try to stall the rally at the 50-day SMA, but if the bulls overcome the obstacle, the pair may surge toward $180. That will bring the large $110 to $260 range into play.


Contrarily, if the price turns down from the current level or the 50-day SMA, it will suggest that the bears remain sellers on rallies. The bears will have to yank the price below the $120 to $110 support zone to start the next leg of the downtrend. 


Dogecoin price analysis


Dogecoin (DOGE) has risen above the 20-day EMA ($0.18), indicating that the bulls have kept up the pressure.

DOGE/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewIf the price closes above the 20-day EMA, the DOGE/USDT pair could climb to the 50-day SMA ($0.21) and later to $0.24. Sellers are expected to defend the level, but if the bulls prevail, the pair could soar to $0.29.


Contrarily, if the price turns down from the 20-day EMA and breaks below $0.16, it will signal that bears remain active at higher levels. The pair may then slump to the critical support at $0.14.


Cardano price analysis


Cardano (ADA) has been trading between the moving averages and the uptrend line for the past few days.

ADA/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingViewThe failure of the bears to sink the price to the uptrend line suggests a lack of selling at lower levels. Buyers will try to strengthen their position by pushing the price above the moving averages. If they do that, the ADA/USDT pair could rise to $0.84 and later to $1.02.
This positive view will be invalidated in the near term if the price turns down from the moving averages and breaks below the uptrend line. That could sink the pair to $0.58 and eventually to $0.50.


Chainlink price analysis


Chainlink (LINK) has broken out of the 20-day EMA ($14.60) on March 24, indicating that the downtrend could be ending.

LINK/USDT daily chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingView

The LINK/USDT pair could rise to the 50-day SMA ($16.34), which could again act as a stiff resistance. If the price turns down from the 50-day SMA, the pair is likely to find support at the 20-day EMA. If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA, the likelihood of a rally to $19.25 increases.


If bears want to prevent the upside, they will have to swiftly pull the price below $13.82. That may sink the pair to the channel’s support line near $12.

Even the DAT Companies Included in the Russell Index Can't Save Ethereum

The FTSE Russell preliminary list for 2026 includes several crypto-related companies like CoreWeave, Iren, Galaxy Digital, and DAT firms BitMine and Sharplink. Inclusion in the Russell 3000 index means billions in passive fund inflows will automatically buy these stocks. While this is positive for the stock prices of these Digital Asset Technology (DAT) companies, the article argues it may not directly benefit the underlying cryptocurrencies like Ethereum. DAT firms can use stock price gains to buy more crypto, but the capital doesn't flow directly to the assets. Citing David Hoffman's recent exit from ETH, the piece notes a structural issue: Ethereum's value as a public good ("giver, not taker") and the profit capture by L2s and applications mean only a small portion of ecosystem success translates to ETH's price. Despite BitMine buying millions of ETH during its price decline, Ethereum's value has fallen significantly. The conclusion is that while index inclusion marks traditional finance acceptance, the "ETH as money" narrative is fading. New value narratives for native tokens are needed, as current mechanisms like chain revenue and buybacks may have inherent limits.

Confirmed: GPT-5.5 "Brain Drain" Exposed, OpenAI's Own Documentation Admits It

Summary: Evidence emerges that OpenAI's GPT-5.5 may be "silently" switching to a less capable model during use. Users report that after roughly two hours, the GPT-5.5 Extended Thinking model begins responding instantly with significantly degraded output quality, while the interface continues to display the premium model's label. Complaints on developer forums describe a loss of instruction-following ability and poor code quality, with even the highest "xhigh" tier affected. This is corroborated by an OpenAI help document stating that after Plus users exceed 160 messages per 3 hours, the system "silently" switches to a "mini" model without any user notification. Pro users also report "heavy thinking" modes being throttled during high server loads. Trace commands from earlier incidents have shown users requesting GPT-5.3 Codex but receiving GPT-5.2 outputs. OpenAI acknowledged performance degradation in mid-May, marking it resolved, but user reports surged again in late May. The pattern mirrors past controversies with GPT-5, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4 releases, where each update was followed by user complaints of reduced capability. The article suggests cost-cutting on compute may be a factor, noting that while GPT-5.5 users struggle, GPT-5.6 is already being tested internally.

Agentized OS: It's Not About AI, It's About the Foundation

The Agentic OS: Beyond AI, It's About the Foundational Stack In 2026, major operating systems like Android, iOS, HarmonyOS, and Windows are entering the "Agentic" era, integrating proactive AI assistants deeply into the system layer. However, the real competition lies not in the flashy AI features showcased at events, but in the three-layer foundational stack that enables them: the system-level AI Runtime, proprietary/controllable chips, and the on-device/cloud model matrix. The AI Runtime acts as the central scheduler, managing model inference, resource allocation, and exposing capabilities to apps. Controllable chips (e.g., Apple Silicon, Google Tensor, Huawei Kirin) are crucial for deep hardware-software co-optimization, determining the efficiency and experience limits of on-device Agents. The on-device/cloud model matrix provides the "intelligence," with proprietary, chip-optimized small models (like Gemini Nano, Apple's ~3B model) handling daily tasks locally for low latency, privacy, and reliability, while cloud models tackle complex requests. Deep synergy between these three layers enables key Agent differentiators: ultra-low latency and power efficiency, genuine "on-device first" privacy, access to system-level personal context across apps, and reliable performance as a system service even offline. OS vendors with strong integration across this stack (like Apple, Google, and Huawei) build a deeper moat. Beyond this core stack, long-term competitiveness depends on variables like structured App integration (e.g., App Intents/AppFunctions) for reliable multi-step workflows, and robust privacy frameworks that build user trust. This shift towards Agentic OS extends beyond phones and PCs to IoT, cars, and XR glasses via existing multi-device ecosystems. The race is won not in a keynote, but through generations of meticulously co-developed chips, models, and system software.

Why Sam Altman's 'Water and Electricity Theory' Sparks Copyright Controversy

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's recent statement that "intelligence will become a utility like electricity or water" has sparked significant controversy, primarily around copyright issues and the nature of AI development. While positioning AI as a utility serves as a compelling narrative for infrastructure investors, critics argue the analogy is flawed in three key areas. First, there's a fundamental "property gap." Traditional utilities like water and power create new, physical infrastructure from scratch. In contrast, major AI models are trained by reorganizing vast amounts of existing human-created content—books, articles, code, etc.—often scraped from the web without explicit permission or compensation to creators. This "free acquisition, paid resale" model is seen by many as ethically problematic. Second, there's a "pricing gap." True public utilities are typically regulated to ensure universal service with non-discriminatory, cost-plus pricing. AI's token-based pricing, however, involves significant price discrimination (e.g., output tokens costing much more than input tokens) and is designed for revenue maximization, not equitable access. Third, a "governance gap" exists. Utilities operate under public oversight, while AI pricing and development are currently controlled by a few private companies. Furthermore, the industry's own shift toward buying licensed training data (e.g., deals with Reddit or news publishers) undermines its previous legal reliance on "fair use" for freely scraped data. In conclusion, while AI is indeed becoming a foundational technology, calling it a public utility remains contentious. The title requires not just scale and a pay-per-use model, but also credible solutions for data provenance, equitable pricing, and public governance.

Ethereum OG Sitting On 630,000% Gain Wakes Up After 10 Years

On-chain data reveals a long-dormant Ethereum wallet from 2015, containing 2,000 ETH, has been reactivated after 10.8 years. Classified as a "pre-mine address," it belonged to an early participant from Ethereum's 2014 presale. The wallet's initial $620 investment, untouched for over a decade, is now worth over $4.2 million—a gain of nearly 630,000%. The activity began with a small test transfer of 1 ETH, followed by a near-complete movement of the remaining 1,997.9 ETH. While the funds have not been sent to a centralized exchange, the sudden activity suggests the owner may have recently regained access to lost or forgotten keys.
