How KITE’s pullback tests bullish resolve after 74% February rally

After a significant 74% rally in February, KITE has experienced a 19% pullback, testing the resolve of bullish investors. The decline is accompanied by a shift in market sentiment, with perpetual contracts showing a rise in short positions and a drop in the Open Interest-Weighted Funding Rate to 0.0082%, indicating growing bearish pressure. The Long/Short Ratio has fallen to 0.82, further highlighting seller dominance. Spot markets reflect similar trends, with $200,000 worth of KITE flowing into exchanges, signaling net selling and a potential reversal from previous accumulation. Liquidity remains thin, making short-term price direction highly dependent on real-time trading momentum. A further price drop with increasing volume could confirm bearish conviction, while declining volume might indicate weakening selling pressure.

Ethereum’s Brutal Price Action Contrasts With Strong Spot ETF Demand, Will This Spur A Rebound?

Ethereum's price is approaching the $2,100 mark again, rising 12% in a day, yet the broader market remains bearish. Despite a brutal price decline from $4,900 to under $2,000, Ethereum Spot ETFs are showing renewed interest and steady capital inflows, suggesting institutional investors may view the drop as a buying opportunity. Market expert Leon Waidmann notes that while outflows persist, the intensity of selling is fading, indicating that panic selling may be exhausting itself. Additionally, short positions are being destroyed, and investors are gradually leaning long, though high-leverage long positions are increasing slowly. This shift in sentiment, coupled with weakening selling pressure, could be pivotal for a potential trend reversal, though a clear accumulation signal has not yet emerged.

Bitcoin Rebounds to $69K, Triggers $400M Short Liquidations

Bitcoin rebounded to nearly $69,000 on February 25, marking its first return to that level in over a week. The cryptocurrency surged over 7% in a single day after dipping to $63,000 just a day earlier. Despite the recovery, Bitcoin remains down more than 21% over the past month. This price movement triggered significant liquidations in the derivatives market, totaling $463 million in 24 hours. Over $400 million of that came from short positions, with Bitcoin alone accounting for around $200 million in short liquidations. Ethereum and Solana followed with $153 million and $22 million, respectively. Ethereum saw a 12% gain, reaching $2,075, while Solana dropped nearly 14% to below $89. Other major cryptocurrencies like Polkadot, Filecoin, and Avalanche also posted double-digit gains. The broader crypto market rose 6.6%, and crypto-related equities climbed as risk appetite improved.

XRP’s volume surge triggers a price drop: Key support at $1.34

XRP experienced a significant surge in trading volume across major exchanges, including an 83% increase on Upbit, a 34% rise on Coinbase, and a 68% jump on Binance. Despite this high activity, the token’s price dropped by 6.46%, falling from $1.46 to $1.34, as much of the volume was attributed to short selling. Key support is now at $1.34; a break below could lead to further decline toward $1.25. However, on-chain metrics remain strong, with daily successful transactions on the XRP Ledger increasing by 40% and Real-World Asset (RWA) market cap growing by 23.42% to $2 billion. Despite bearish short-term price action, fundamentals suggest a bullish outlook for XRP.

XRP stabilizes near $1.40 as traders bet on a bottom – What’s next?

XRP is stabilizing near the $1.40–$1.20 support zone within a long-term descending channel, showing signs of potential exhaustion rather than further decline. The cryptocurrency has printed its largest spike in realized losses since 2022, often a signal of late-stage capitulation. The MACD indicator shows bullish convergence, suggesting weakening selling pressure. However, the NVT ratio has increased by over 108%, indicating that market valuation is expanding relative to network activity—a potential short-term imbalance. Additionally, Binance traders are heavily positioned long, with a Long/Short Ratio of 2.22, creating asymmetric risk: a rebound could accelerate gains, but a breakdown may trigger rapid liquidations. The key outlook depends on whether XRP holds current support. A sustained hold above $1.20, coupled with MACD strength, could lead to a recovery attempt. Conversely, a break below may initiate further declines before any reversal.

DEEP breaks descending channel after 12% surge – Is a bigger rally ahead?

DEEP surged 12% to $0.032, breaking out of a multi-month descending channel—a potential bullish shift. However, volume declined 36%, suggesting weak broad conviction. The Directional Movement Index shows buyers edging ahead with strengthening trend intensity. Despite the breakout, top Binance traders remain heavily net short (Long/Short Ratio at 0.62), creating potential for a short squeeze if the price holds above $0.031–$0.033. Open Interest rose 9.32%, indicating new leveraged positions and higher volatility risk. Sustainability depends on bulls defending the breakout zone; failure could trigger a sharp reversal.

Holder pain persists as MOVE’s downtrend continues: Only 1% in profit

Movement (MOVE) experienced a minor 0.68% price increase in 24 hours, but its Open Interest surged nearly 12%. Despite this, funding rates remained negative, indicating a short-heavy market. The altcoin has been in a persistent downtrend since January 2025, down 98.25% from its all-time high, with only 1.127% of addresses in profit. On-chain metrics, including the spot taker CVD and Coin Days Destroyed (CDD), show dominant selling pressure. A recent positive exchange net position change suggests increased MOVE inflows to exchanges, signaling potential further selling. The data implies that any price bounce, like the recent 22.45% rally, is likely to be sold off, making shorting a more favorable strategy than buying.

Possibility for Bitcoin Short Liquidation Emerges as BTC Price Finds a Low

There is a potential for significant Bitcoin short liquidations if the price rallies, with an estimated $4.34 billion at risk if BTC increases by 10%. Conversely, a 10% drop could trigger around $2.35 billion in long liquidations. Recent data shows over $72 million in liquidations in 24 hours, with short liquidations exceeding longs in the past 12 hours. BTC's price is currently down 3% to $68,532.55, reflecting a nearly 28% monthly decline. Analysts caution that overcrowded bearish positions could lead to an amplified upside squeeze, emphasizing the need for thorough research amid high market volatility.

$660M in Ethereum leaves exchanges – Yet ETH’s bottom remains unclear!

Ethereum exchange balances have seen significant outflows, with $660 million worth of ETH withdrawn recently, indicating accumulation by long-term holders. Despite this, ETH's price bottom remains uncertain. Key metrics show persistent bearish pressure: negative ETF netflows for three months, deeply negative funding rates suggesting extreme short positioning, and declining Open Interest. While a short squeeze is possible, current conditions suggest the market downturn may not be over. Notably, Bitmine Immersion Technologies continued accumulating ETH aggressively, though broader market sentiment remains cautious. Overall, holder conviction is strong, but a sustained bottom may take time to form.

Despite the bearish signals, Snyder projects BTC could reach around $88,827 in three months, a 29.15% surge.
