What’s Driving Bitcoin And Ethereum Prices – And Why Investors Should Be Watchful

Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have declined significantly due to institutional and fundamental concerns. Bitcoin fell below $70,000, driven by a reversal in spot Bitcoin ETF flows, with outflows of $228 million on March 5 and over $348 million the following day. Broader market sell-offs, large-volume BTC sales by major holders, and selling pressure from exchanges like Binance and Coinbase contributed to the slump. Analysts predict further declines to between $60,000 and $48,000. Ethereum dropped below $2,000 amid criticism of its token economics. Short-selling firm Culper Research warned that the Fusaka upgrade expanded block capacity faster than demand, leading to low-value transactions and reduced validator earnings. The upgrade also coincided with a surge in address-poisoning attacks, resulting in an estimated $87 million in losses. Culper has shorted ETH, labeling it a "broken token" with little future economic value.

Assessing if Zcash’s $200 support is at risk after ZEC falls by 8%

Zcash (ZEC) experienced significant bearish pressure, declining 8.29% to trade around $207 after facing rejection at $251. The altcoin fell below key moving averages, indicating strong downside momentum. Market data revealed dominant selling pressure, with negative Spot Taker CVD and Buy Sell Volume metrics, alongside a Demand Index of -25, reflecting weak demand relative to supply. Technical indicators, including a bearish Stochastic Ergodic crossover, suggested further downside risk. However, exchange outflows of $48.3 million over three days indicated some accumulation at lower prices, potentially providing relief. If buying pressure increases, ZEC could rebound toward $238; otherwise, it may break below $200 and drop to $185.

Ethereum – BlackRock drops ETH ETF staking fee as firm issues ‘warning’

BlackRock has reduced the staking fee for its Ethereum ETF from 18% to 10% to stay competitive, as most U.S. spot ETH ETFs are now including staking features. Demand for ETH staking has surged, with a record 37 million ETH staked, representing 30.6% of the circulating supply. However, Culper Research warns that recent network upgrades like Fusaka have lowered validator rewards, potentially reducing staking demand and negatively impacting ETH's value. The firm has taken a short position on ETH, citing declining validator activity. Despite this, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin views the upgrades as beneficial long-term. ETH's price is consolidating near $2k, with a potential volatile move ahead.

Bitcoin Difficulty Holds Flat As Hashrate Moves Sideways

Bitcoin's mining difficulty remained nearly unchanged in the latest biweekly adjustment, increasing by only 0.45%. This follows a period of sideways movement in the network's hashrate, indicating that miners are neither significantly expanding nor reducing their operational capacity. The stability comes after a period of volatility caused by a severe snowstorm in the United States in late January, which forced miners to temporarily reduce power usage, causing a sharp drop in hashrate and a subsequent major difficulty decrease. Following a quick recovery, the hashrate has since stabilized. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price, which recently surpassed $70,000, has pulled back and is now trading around $68,300.

Bitcoin – Derivatives flash ‘mixed signals,’ but is $72K a real possibility?

Bitcoin recently broke above $70,000 but has since retreated to around $68,000, reflecting mixed signals in the derivatives markets. Options data shows declining implied volatility and a balanced skew, indicating low expectations for major near-term price movement and a lack of strong directional bias. In contrast, the Perpetual Futures market reveals significant long liquidations and a drop in open interest, suggesting short-term bearish pressure and trader caution. However, slightly positive funding rates and a liquidation heatmap with stronger liquidity clusters above current prices suggest potential upward momentum. While a drop toward $66,000 is possible, a rebound to $72,000 remains achievable if buying pressure resumes.

Ethena’s price slips 15% from its weekly high – Deeper losses ahead?

Ethena (ENA) experienced a brief rally, reaching a local high of $0.12 on March 4th, accompanied by increased open interest and trading volume. However, this bullish momentum was short-lived, and the price has since fallen 15% from that peak. The longer-term trend remains bearish, with prices declining since August and a significant 50% drop over the past five weeks after losing the $0.21 support level. Technical indicators, including the Directional Movement Index and MFI, confirm strong bearish control. A recent bounce to $0.12 was rejected, and the next likely target is a drop to the $0.085 support level. A further decline of 7%-15% is anticipated if the price falls below $0.1.

Dogecoin Price Could See A Major Spike To $10 If This Trend Repeats

A crypto analyst, TheMoonHailey, predicts that Dogecoin (DOGE) could experience a historic rally to $10, based on a recurring long-term chart pattern. The analysis points to an ascending parallel channel that has contained DOGE's price action since 2014, with three major cyclical bottoms identified along the channel's lower support line. The first two bottoms, in 2017 and 2021, preceded massive rallies of 9,200% and 26,000%, respectively. The analyst suggests DOGE is currently forming a third major bottom near the $0.09-$0.10 level, mirroring the historical setup. If the pattern repeats, a parabolic surge to the channel's upper boundary near $10 is projected, which would represent a gain of over 11,000%. A separate analyst, Trader Tardigrade, using the same pattern, offers a more conservative bullish target of $3, which would still be a gain of over 3,200%. The prediction hinges on DOGE holding its current support level, from which its previous historic rallies were launched.

Pi Network nears crucial price point: Breakout or bull trap for PI?

Pi Network's PI token has shown strong performance, gaining 16.1% over the past week and 5% in the last 24 hours, contrasting Bitcoin's decline. However, the longer-term trend remains bearish. The price has reached a key psychological resistance at $0.20, which may be a bull trap rather than a sustainable breakout. Technical indicators like the OBV and Awesome Oscillator show buying pressure, but the CMF suggests underlying weakness. The daily chart structure is still bearish, and a break above $0.216 is needed to shift the trend bullishly. Traders are advised to watch for a close below $0.1857 to confirm bearish momentum. The breakout from the triangle pattern may be a retracement before further declines.

Bitcoin Generational Buying Opportunity: The Most Bullish Time To Get In

Bitcoin's price has been moving sideways with weak demand. Analyst Crypto Patel suggests it may not have bottomed yet and could fall further, potentially breaking the $60,000 support and even dropping below $50,000. While this seems bearish short-term, Patel views it a "generational buying opportunity" if it occurs. He advises investors to think long-term and avoid emotional decisions, predicting this scenario could unfold over the next 3-6 months.
