Gold has become "overextended" after climbing to more than $5,247 per ounce, according to Jan3 CEO and Bitcoin advocate Samson Mow. Bitcoin (BTC) is relatively undervalued compared to gold and the global money supply, which could signal a price reversal, according to Samson Mow, the CEO of Bitcoin technology company Jan3. “Bitcoin is about 24%-66% below its trend relative to gold's market cap or global money supply, while gold is overextended,” Mow said in a Saturday post on X. Gold futures for April delivery closed Friday at $5,247.90; Tokenized gold PAX Gold USD was trading at the time of writing at $5,404.14. Read more

Demand from Bitcoin accumulation addresses reached a new high, with analysts citing a futures market CME gap as a prediction point for their higher short-term price targets. Bitcoin (BTC) saw a sharp dip below $67,400 during the Monday session open, after it rallied above $70,000 over the weekend. An immediate recovery may come at the back of BTC order book data, which shows aggressive bid positioning, and onchain data pointing to a rise in long-term accumulation.  Analysts now say the move may extend toward the $80,000–$84,000 region, with order book liquidity playing a key role in the next move.

The ETF issuer warned that investors who pick the fund tied to the losing US presidential outcome could lose nearly all invested capital. US-based ETF issuer Roundhill Investments has filed with the US securities regulator to launch six exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to event contracts on the outcome of the 2028 US presidential election. ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said in an X post on Saturday that, if approved, the ETF products would be “potentially groundbreaking.” “Opens up huge door to all kinds of stuff,” Balchunas said, adding that prediction market applications are easy to sign up to, but ETFs are “just that much easier.” Read more

Bitcoin has seen record realized losses in one of the cryptocurrency’s largest-ever capitulation events as short-term holders sold at steep losses amid its decline. Bitcoin has posted $2.3 billion in realized losses in what one analyst says is one of the largest capitulation events in history, rivaling its crash in 2021. Bitcoin’s (BTC) seven-day average realized net losses hit $2.3 billion, analyst IT Tech said in a note on CryptoQuant on Thursday, which it called “one of the largest capitulation events in BTC history, rivaling the 2021 crash, 2022 Luna/FTX collapse, and mid-2024 correction.” “This puts us in the top 3-5 loss events ever recorded,” IT Tech added. “Only a handful of moments in Bitcoin's history have seen this level of capitulation.” Read more

AI data center spending is eclipsing crypto’s hoped-for supercycle as Bitcoin miners shift capital toward high-performance computing infrastructure. After years of debate in some corners of the crypto industry, Bitcoin and digital assets are on the verge of a long-awaited “supercycle,” typically defined as an extended, structurally driven boom that lasts beyond a normal market cycle. However, the only development resembling such durable, capital-intensive expansion may be underway in AI infrastructure, according to the latest newsletter from Blockbridge Consulting, which has been rebranded to TheEnergyMag from TheMinerMag. In the newsletter, analyst Wolfie Zhao described a “trillion-dollar build supercycle” tied to AI data center infrastructure. Read more

Bitcoin may continue to copy its 2022 bear market if bulls fail to reclaim the 200-week exponential moving average by the end of the week, new analysis said. Bitcoin (BTC) battled a key 200-week trend line around Thursday’s Wall Street open as “bearish acceleration” fears persisted. Key points: Bitcoin threatens to add the 200-week exponential moving average to its list of new resistance levels. Read more

Bitcoin ETFs may be sitting on their “biggest losses” since launching in January 2024, but there is a silver lining, according to an ETF analyst. US-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) holders are showing relatively firm conviction despite a four-month Bitcoin downtrend, according to ETF analyst James Seyffart. “The ETFs are still hanging in there pretty good,” Seyffart said in an X post on Wednesday. While Seyffart said that Bitcoin (BTC) ETF holders are facing their “biggest losses” since the US products launched in January 2024 — at a paper loss of around 42% with Bitcoin below $73,000 — he argues the recent outflows pale in comparison to the inflows during the market’s peak.  Read more

Bitcoin fell under $73,000 as futures liquidations soared and worries over this week’s US corporate earnings triggered a stock sell-off. Will traders finally step in to buy “discounted” BTC? Bitcoin (BTC) tumbled to a new 2026 low of $72,945 on Tuesday as bulls failed to hold the $80,000 level as support. Year-to-date, Bitcoin trades at a 15% loss and remains nearly 45% down from its $126,267 all-time high, raising investor concerns that BTC’s cyclical bull market may have reached an end.   Rocky price action in US stock markets is an alleged driver of the selling across the crypto market. Since the end of Q4 2025, investors questioned whether the costs associated with the artificial intelligence infrastructure build-out and the lofty fundraising and valuations were sustainable. Investors fear that product demand and revenue may fall short of industry projections, and this souring sentiment is visible across the Magnificent 7 stocks, along with the S&P 500, DOW and NASDAQ, which are currently trading down 0.7...

Warsh’s nomination as the new Fed chair has ignited US liquidity drought concerns, but his interest rate policy may hold the silver lining for risk asset recovery, according to market analysts. US President Donald Trump has nominated former Federal Reserve governor Kevin Warsh to lead the US central bank, a move that has sent mixed signals for cryptocurrency markets and US dollar liquidity, according to market analysts. Trump nominated Bitcoin-friendly Warsh on Friday, and he is set to replace Jerome Powell when his term ends in May, assuming the Senate approves him. Warsh's nomination could mean the Fed will continue its interest rate cut trajectory. But according to Thomas Perfumo, a global economist at cryptocurrency exchange Kraken, it also signals that broader market liquidity is expected to “stabilize rather than meaningfully expand.” Read more

Bitcoin’s decline is mirroring SaaS stocks, proving that it is unlikely a crypto-specific narrative is driving the recent selloff, one analyst argues. A major market downturn that saw crypto markets lose $250 billion in total capitalization over the weekend is due to a shortage of US liquidity, rather than any crypto-specific problem, argues Raoul Pal, founder and CEO of Global Macro Investor.  “The big narrative is that BTC and crypto are broken. The cycle is over,” Pal said on Sunday, explaining that this can’t be the case because Software as a Service (SaaS) stocks have fallen in tandem.  SaaS stocks and Bitcoin (BTC) have moved in lockstep recently, both dropping significantly, which is notable because both are “long-duration assets,” as their value is based heavily on expected future cash flows and adoption, making them sensitive to liquidity conditions and interest rates, he said.

Bitcoin advocate and accountant Rajat Soni warned, “Never trust a weekend pump or dump,” as Bitcoin plunged and over $2 billion was wiped from the crypto market. Bitcoin’s fall of around 7% to $77,000 on Saturday might have marked the low of this cycle, according to Bitcoin analyst PlanC. It comes as other crypto analysts continue to call for further downside for Bitcoin (BTC) in the coming months. “Decent chance this will be the deepest pullback opportunity this Bitcoin bull run,” PlanC said in an X post on Saturday.

Bitcoiners hoping for a big rotation from gold and silver might be chasing the wrong signal, says Benjamin Cowen. Bitcoin’s price downtrend may not be as short-lived as many holders anticipate, says crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen. “Bitcoin’s likely going to keep bleeding against the stock market,” Cowen said in a video on Thursday, adding that strong expectations of a “massive rotation” from metals like gold and silver into crypto may be misplaced. The prices of gold and silver have recently surged to all-time highs of $5,608.33 and $121.64, respectively, according to Trading Economics.  Read more

Overregulation of the crypto industry would negatively impact markets and gut decentralized finance (DeFi), according to Michaël van de Poppe. The failure of the CLARITY crypto market structure bill to advance in the United States Congress is positive for crypto markets and the industry, according to market analyst Michaël van de Poppe.  Van De Poppe cited crypto exchange Coinbase withdrawing support for the bill on Wednesday and Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong’s X post listing several concerns with the most recent version of the bill. The issues included a “de facto ban” on tokenized stocks, government access to user records on decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms and prohibiting yield-bearing stablecoins, Armstrong said. Van De Poppe said: Read more
