38% of altcoins near all-time lows – Assessing 48% market cap wipeout

Altcoins are experiencing severe market pressure, with liquidity drying up and capital outflows accelerating. The altcoin market capitalization has dropped 48%, from a peak of $1.9 trillion to $981 billion. According to analysis, 38% of active altcoins are trading near their all-time lows, with examples like LIT, ENA, and WLFI down between 69% and 93% from their peaks. Trading volume has plunged 58% since October 2025, and Open Interest has fallen sharply, indicating reduced risk appetite and dominant bearish sentiment. For a market reversal, a significant shift in sentiment and an influx of demand-side liquidity are required.

MVC Market View Express (3.9-3.15)

Recent tensions in the Middle East have heightened market sensitivity to geopolitical risks, particularly concerning Iran. The assessment is that the U.S. is unlikely to deploy ground troops, while Iran may use external pressure to legitimize internal political restructuring. A 20% rise in oil prices could trigger a U.S. policy response, keeping the situation broadly manageable. Geopolitical premiums will continue to influence market sentiment until oil falls below $100 per barrel. Long-term trends, especially in commodities and precious metals, remain upward, with new capital being deployed opportunistically on dips. Three key themes are emphasized: 1. Commodities and Resources: Geopolitical risks and the restructuring of the credit system support elevated gold prices. Exposure to gold mining equities is being increased. Copper is viewed as a medium- to long-term allocation, benefiting from future liquidity expansion. 2. Digital Assets: Bitcoin has recently outperformed equities but lacks a clear trend reversal signal. A cautious stance is maintained, prioritizing drawdown control while awaiting confirmation of a turning point in U.S. dollar liquidity. 3. AI and Technology: Current valuations of AI leaders appear full, with limited short-term upside consensus. Future performance will heavily depend on changes in global liquidity conditions. Overall, the strategy remains centered on the themes of “traditional credit system restructuring” and “East-facing allocation,” with a focus on RMB-denominated resource assets to balance certainty and upside potential.

Wall Street Expert Warns of 35% Stock Crash Amid US-Iran War

Wall Street expert Ed Yardeni has raised his prediction for a U.S. stock market crash to 35% for the rest of the year, up from an initial 20% forecast. This revision comes amid escalating tensions in the U.S.-Iran war, which has driven oil prices above $100 a barrel. Yardeni also reduced the odds of a market rally influenced by investor enthusiasm to just 5%. The conflict has caused investors to push back expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts to September, with some betting no cuts will occur in 2026 due to slower economic growth and rising inflation. Additionally, crypto-related stocks are falling, with some firms, like Bitcoin miner Core Scientific, pivoting strategies and selling assets amid the uncertainty.

Retail capitulates on XRP as $51B in losses mount – Yet ONE group refuses to sell

Unrealized losses for XRP have expanded after the price reversed from its July 2025 peak near $3.65. Approximately 36.8 billion XRP is now held at a loss, totaling around $50.8 billion. The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) has fallen below 1.0, indicating that many transactions are now occurring at a loss. This trend is driven by retail investors capitulating and exiting their positions. However, large holders are absorbing the supply, showing resilience despite the downturn. Historical patterns suggest that such loss expansions have occurred in previous cycles and often lead to market stabilization rather than immediate further decline.

What Does Ethena's Trend Reveal About the Cryptocurrency Market?

The article analyzes the perpetual futures market structure and risk sentiment in the cryptocurrency market using Ethena's transparency dashboard as a key indicator. It reveals that Ethena's deployed capital has dropped to $791 million, only 71% of its 2025 low and 12.9% of its peak, reflecting extremely low net long demand in the market. A key insight is that directional long positions are nearly equal to directional short positions—a rare and historically unsustainable balance in crypto. The analysis breaks down perpetual contract holders into four categories: directional longs, directional shorts (including hedgers), basis traders (like Ethena), and arbitrageurs. Ethena’s role as a basis trader provides a proxy for excess long demand. The sharp decline in its deployed capital—over 60% since February 2026—suggests either the unwinding of unprofitable basis trades, increased hedging activity from directional shorts, or weak leveraged long demand. Current negative funding rates and stable open interest indicate growing short or hedge demand, possibly from VC firms and crypto companies managing risk in a bearish market. This equilibrium between longs and shorts is unusual and may signal a market regime change, though it remains uncertain whether this balance can persist.

Riot Financial Report Breakdown: When BTC Falls Below $74K, Miners Can't Even Cover Electricity Costs

Based on Riot Platforms' financial data, this analysis deconstructs Bitcoin mining costs into three distinct layers: electricity, operational, and accounting. At a BTC price of $67,200, a miner with modern ASICs and a $0.0667/kWh electricity rate (like in Texas) can cover its direct power cost ($64,635/BTC) for a slim profit. However, adding Riot's non-power operational expenses ($9,809/BTC) pushes the operational breakeven to ~$74,444, resulting in a loss. Further incorporating non-cash depreciation ($39,687/BTC) raises the full accounting breakeven to ~$114,130, indicating significant losses at the corporate level. The model projects that only a BTC price of $126,000 would make mining profitable across all three layers for Riot before the next halving. This framework demonstrates that a mining operation can be cash-flow positive from electricity while remaining unprofitable from operational and accounting perspectives, highlighting the substantial gap between simply running machines and running a profitable public company. The analysis underscores that machine efficiency and electricity rates are critical, as older hardware carries a persistent cost disadvantage.

Ethena (ENA) Price Squeezed Between $0.119 and $0.095: Is a Breakout or Breakdown Next?

ENA's price is consolidating within a tight range between a key resistance at $0.119 and a support level at $0.095. While the token saw a minor 1.73% increase, technical indicators suggest growing bearish momentum. The MACD and signal lines are below zero, and the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator at -0.27 points to significant selling pressure and capital outflow. The daily RSI reading of 42.12 also indicates a market where selling pressure is stronger than buying. A break below the support could trigger a deeper decline, while a move above resistance may signal a bullish reversal.

ETH Surges $2,013 Before Pulling Back, Charts Signal Consolidation Phase

The cryptocurrency market saw a modest 0.49% increase, reaching a total market cap of $2.31 trillion, while the Fear and Greed Index remained at 19, indicating extreme fear for over a month. Ethereum (ETH) surged to a high of $2,013 before pulling back to $1,975, marking a 1.2% daily gain. Trading volume spiked over 80% to $20 billion. Despite this, ETH is down 3% over the past month and nearly 60% from its August 2025 peak of $71.93 million was liquidated in 24 hours, with longs accounting for $36.16 million. Technical analysis indicates ETH is in a consolidation phase between $1,820 and $2,100 after a prolonged downtrend. The RSI is at 44, and the MACD shows a positive crossover, though momentum remains bearish. Key resistance levels are at $2,020 and $2,100, with support near $1,920 and $1,850. A breakout above resistance could push ETH toward $2,200, while a drop below support may trigger further declines.

US Recession Chances are Rising, Will Crypto Prices be Hit?

Chances of a US recession by the end of 2026 have increased on prediction markets Kalshi and Polymarket, rising from around 22% in early March to approximately 35-39%. This has raised concerns about a potential global recession, which could negatively impact crypto prices as investors may reallocate funds. Current crypto prices remain stable, with BTC at $64,240.50 and ETH at $1,977.45, though fear in the market has increased. Rising oil prices, with crude at $103.22 per barrel, are a major concern and could further escalate if the Middle East conflict continues. Upcoming inflation data on March 11, 2026, is highly anticipated.

A Turning Point Approaches: The "Net Long vs. Net Short" Structure Presents a Historically Rare State

The cryptocurrency market is exhibiting a historically rare structure in perpetual futures, with directional long positions nearly equal to directional short positions, signaling a potential major shift (变盘). Analysis using Ethena's transparency dashboard reveals that Ethena's deployed capital, which acts as a proxy for excess long demand in the market, has plummeted to $790 million—just 71% of its 2025 low and 12.9% of its October 2025 peak. This sharp decline, occurring amid relatively stable prices since Bitcoin's crash to $60,000, suggests a significant reduction in speculative long leverage and a rise in directional shorting or hedging demand, particularly from VCs and projects hedging illiquid assets. While this balanced state could theoretically persist, it is extremely uncommon in other asset markets, indicating that a volatility surge and market turn may be imminent.
