Short-term Bitcoin traders took profit on 63,000 BTC over the past 24-hours. Will profit-taking continue to stall the rally? Bitcoin’s (BTC) rally stalled above $76,000 stalled on Tuesday after short-term profit-taking by traders reached its highest level in 2026.  The activity coincided with continued accumulation by long-term holders, and this opposing interaction between the two cohorts may continue to impact Bitcoin’s attempts to break into the $80,000 range. New Bitcoin short-term holders moved their holdings as BTC in profit sent to exchanges reached 63,000 BTC on April 14, the highest level in 2026, since the 44,800 spike on Jan. 14. Read more

Will quantum-safe cryptography slow Ethereum? It is likely to affect gas fees, validator load and network efficiency, prompting Ethereum to pursue a broader redesign strategy. Ethereum relies on cryptographic systems that remain secure against classical computers. However, sufficiently advanced quantum machines could one day break these systems, potentially exposing private keys and putting billions of dollars in value at risk. Ethereum’s post-quantum initiative sends a clear message: there is no immediate threat, yet delaying action is not an option. Upgrading a global, decentralized network is a complex, multiyear effort that requires: Read more

XRP shows improving risk-adjusted returns alongside rising whale flows, but rising leverage use and repeat liquidations point to a fragile futures market. The Sharpe Ratio for XRP (XRP), a measure of return per unit of risk, turned slightly positive on March 26, after spending months near or below zero between October 2024 and February 2025. A 30-day average return of 0.00063 supports this positive shift, while the Sharpe ratio stands at 0.0267, which reflects that the “current returns still exceed risk”. Onchain data indicates that whales have steadily accumulated XRP over the past month, pointing to demand despite the weak price action.  Read more

Bitcoin mass adoption by institutional investors has resumed, but global instability and the risk of rising US inflation put a lid on BTC’s breakouts above $70,000. Bitcoin’s (BTC) consolidation continued into Thursday as bulls struggled to keep hold of $70,000, and competing narratives on BTC’s market structure versus its increasing institutional adoption clashed with the bearish overarching factors negatively impacting US equity markets.  Citing Bernstein’s $150,000 by the end of 2026 price estimate, Bloomberg analysts said that data shows institutional investors returning to the Bitcoin markets in droves, reinforcing the view that BTC had “reached a floor.”    In early March, a week-long stretch of inflows to the spot Bitcoin ETFs nearly topped $1 billion, while Strategy purchased 22,237 BTC for $1.6 billion through its new perpetual preferred equity, Stretch (STRC). In addition to the success of STRC, Strategy also unveiled plans to raise capital to buy $44.1 billion in additional Bitcoin.  Read more

The number of Ether staked continues to rise while ETH outflows from exchanges are increasing. Will the phenomenon have a positive or negative impact on ETH price? Ether’s (ETH) liquid supply on the Ethereum network continues to tighten, with exchange netflows, rising staking participation, and declining exchange reserves all pointing to a shrinking pool of readily available tokens.  Analysts suggest this supply contraction may mark the early stages of a “new phase,” potentially establishing a stronger structural price floor for ETH in the market cycles ahead. Ethereum’s staking share continues to rise, with about 38.1 million ETH locked on Wednesday, equal to roughly 33.1% of the total supply. Staking infrastructure provider Everstake noted that this is the highest level recorded, marking a steady shift toward illiquid capital rather than tradable inventory. The staking platform said,  Read more

A strong buy signal not seen since 2022 just flashed on Ether, but the altcoin needs to hold above a key price level to avoid invalidating the pattern. A key Ether (ETH) onchain indicator has climbed to its highest level in over three years, a level last seen when ETH bottomed during the 2022 bear market cycle. The signal supports the case for an early bottoming phase, despite the weak spot demand and muted price action. Data suggests that ETH may stabilize near the local floor around $2,000, but a sweep of lower price levels remains possible in the coming weeks. The 30-day average of positive Ether net taker volume climbed to $142 million on March 17, reaching levels last seen on July 18, 2022. The net taker volume measures the difference between aggressive buyers and sellers in derivatives markets.  Read more

Key takeaways: STRC has dipped below its $100 par value, forcing Strategy to halt its Bitcoin buying spree. Read more
