Oil-linked trading on the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid (HYPE) has recently surpassed $1 billion in volume within a 24-hour period, leading to a significant 10% rally in the platform’s native token, HYPE, allowing it to outperform the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. In fact, oil-linked trading on Hyperliquid hit over $1.2 billion, making it the second-most traded market on the platform, just behind Bitcoin (BTC). Hyperliquid’s Oil Contract Trading Soars The driving force behind the recent HYPE performance has been the CL-USDC perpetual contract, which tracks West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices. This contract’s trading volume recently eclipsed Ethereum (ETH) trading on the platform. Related Reading: Bitcoin At The Bottom? The 23-Month Cycle That Has Never Failed The increase in activity coincides with a dramatic rise in oil futures, which jumped over 30% to nearly $120 a barrel on traditional exchanges. This spike followed escalating tensions in the Middle East that have disrupted global supply chains. Before these developments, daily volumes for the CL-USDC contract hovered around $21 million. However, following the recent geopolitical events, that figure skyrocketed to more than $1.2 billion as of Monday. Additionally, open interest in this contract surged to $183 million. $150 Price Target For HYPE Further fueling the excitement surrounding the HYPE rally is a bullish outlook from Arthur Hayes, co-founder of cryptocurrency platform BitMEX. In a recent essay, Hayes set a price target of $150 for HYPE by August 2026, asserting that Hyperliquid can continue to expand its revenue streams even if broader cryptocurrency markets experience difficulties. Related Reading: Dogecoin Remains Inside Falling Channel, Bulls Target Surge Above $0.1 While HYPE has been on the rise, with the token retesting the $35 resistance wall, major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum have shown modest recoveries during the same period. Bitcoin gained approximately 2.5%, while Ethereum saw a slightly higher increase of 3.4%. Analyzing HYPE’s daily trading chart reveals critical support levels that investors should watch. Key support zones are anticipated around $32, $29, and $28, with the latter acting as a significant accumulation point over the past two weeks. Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com
Bitcoin’s rally back to the mid-$73,000 region did not last long as the leading cryptocurrency’s price action reversed as the week came to a close and fell back around $67,000 after momentarily regaining momentum last week, pulling Ethereum down with it till the ETH price also lost the $2,000 price level. However, the pullback of these leading cryptocurrencies is the product of a few forces colliding at once: a war nobody fully priced in and institutions quietly heading for the exits. Here is what happened. Spot Bitcoin ETFs: From Boosting Rally To Draining Liquidity One of the clearest reasons for Bitcoin’s reversal is that the same ETF complex that helped lift the price early in the week suddenly turned into a source of pressure. SoSoValue data show that US-based Spot Bitcoin ETFs posted strong inflows at the start of the week, including about $458.19 million on March 2, $225.15 million on March 3, and $461.77 million on March 4. Related Reading: Bitcoin Pattern Memory Predicts The Bottom, And It’s Below $40,000 That stretch helped Bitcoin climb as high as roughly $74,051 intraday on March 4, but the tone changed quickly after that. By March 5, spot Bitcoin ETFs had flipped to a net outflow of about $227.83 million, and on March 6, the outflow worsened to roughly $348.83 million, showing that institutional demand softened just as Bitcoin was testing resistance near the mid-$70,000s. Spot Bitcoin ETFs. Source: SoSoValue Unsurprisingly, Ethereum also saw its own exchange-traded funds flows deteriorate in tandem with Bitcoin. SoSoValue’s data show US Spot Ethereum ETFs started the week on firmer footing, with $38.69 million in net inflows on March 2, led by BlackRock’s ETHA at about $26.51 million. However, by the second half of the week, that demand had faded massively. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded about $90.94 million in net outflows on March 5 and another $82.85 million in net outflows on March 6, with Fidelity’s FETH alone accounting for roughly $67.57 million of the March 6 withdrawal. Spot Ethereum ETFs. Source: SoSoValue Profit-Taking And Global Risk Aversion The final piece is the macro backdrop. The bounce to $73,000 to $74,000 invited short-term traders to lock in gains, especially after Bitcoin ran into a clear resistance band and failed to push through decisively. On-chain data shows that more than 27,000 BTC in profit were sent to exchanges by short-term holders within 24 hours.

Financial markets are still pricing in the conflicts in the Middle East. Iran responded to US-Israel attacks by not only firing retaliatory strikes but also effectively closing the Strait of Hormuz, a passage for roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. That closure is what truly rattled markets. Once Bitcoin lost altitude, Ethereum followed with even more force. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $67,500. Ethereum, on the other hand, is trading at $1,975. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum is showing early signs of a rising wedge formation, a pattern often associated with potential reversals. With key support under pressure, a breakdown from this structure could push the price lower, putting the $1,500 level firmly in focus as the next major target. A Rejection At Key High-Timeframe Support Luca, in a recent update, highlighted that Ethereum’s price has been rejected at the lost high-timeframe support range he referenced in previous PAT updates. This level also aligns with the 2D Bull Market Support Band at $2,180, making it a critical zone for assessing market direction. The rejection suggests that buyers are struggling to reclaim key support, keeping the market under pressure. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Support Intact, but Market Signals Waning Bullish Momentum Examining the mid-term picture, Luca noted that since early February, Ethereum has been forming a rising wedge pattern. Rising wedges are often considered cautionary signals because they can precede corrective moves, indicating that the current upward attempts may lack the strength needed to sustain a rally. Until there is clear evidence of a durable breakout above both the lost high-timeframe support range and the 2D Bull Market Support Band, Luca advises that traders should remain hedged and avoid overly aggressive positions. This strategy helps limit exposure while waiting for a more definitive market trend to emerge. For the time being, Luca plans to remain hedged to mitigate mid-term downside risk. The most probable scenario, according to his analysis, is continued consolidation within the lost high-timeframe range. If bearish pressure persists, Ethereum may continue the high-timeframe downtrend observed over the past few weeks. The next key high-timeframe support to monitor aligns with the early April 2025 lows near $1,500. Ethereum Shows Potential For End-Of-Week Trades Ethereum could present some interesting end-of-week trading opportunities. Lennaert Snyder revealed that price action around key levels may offer both short-term and mid-term setups for active traders. Related Reading: The $2,000 Fault Line: Why Ethereum’s Record Volatility Signals An Imminent Explosion According to the analyst, Ethereum is currently holding at the $2,036 low, which indicates a correlation with the Smart Money Theory (SMT) and Bitcoin. This alignment suggests that price movements in ETH may follow broader market trends seen in BTC, providing potential clues for trading decisions. Snyder plans to enter shorts if Ethereum sweeps and rejects the buy-side liquidity above $2,099, using a bearish MSB as his trigger. Conversely, if price breaks above $2,099, he’ll target longs toward $2,163, relying on SMT with BTC and previously captured sell-side liquidity. He also cautioned traders to be mindful of today’s Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) release, which can create volatility across crypto markets. Sudden market reactions could impact ETH’s price action, making careful risk management essential around the news event. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum’s co-founder Vitalik Buterin has called for “bolder and more open‑minded” experimentation at Ethereum’s application layer while keeping the core principles untouched. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Shakes Iran Fear as ETF Inflows Drive Short Squeeze Into The Vital $70K Level A Bolder Path For Ethereum In a long post on the social network X on March 5, Vitalik Buterin is doubling down on rethinking the future of Ethereum. After his warning that Ethereum should not lose itself into a memecoin-chasing and yield-farming casino, he is now asking that builders have a “more bold and open mindset to many things” referring this time especially to the “application layer and how we see ourselves in the world”. An Open Mindset Before getting into his deep dive, Buterin clarifies that this open mindset shouldn’t leave people insecure about the network’s security protocols. Ethereum’s co-founder ties back to his previous concerns regarding Ethereum’s role beyond DeFi, reminding users once again what the project ethos is about: technological and financial tools to give people more freedom. We should not compromise on core properties: censorship resistance, open source, privacy, security (CROPS). We should not have “open mindedness” of the type that leaves people with no confidence of what security properties the L1 will have one year from now “Issues of Tecnological Direction” Buterin first tackles what he calls the “technological direction” of the project. He believes that, regarding the layer of applications and Ethereum’s interface to the world, “should be willing to radically rethink various concepts and step outside our comfort zone”. Related Reading: Culper Shorts Ethereum, Says Buterin Selling Signals More Pain Ahead The first aspect to revisit should be the application stack, “because the entire stack so far has not been built around privacy”, he claims. Ethereum’s base layer is finally becoming a robust, efficient settlement engine, but the layers on top, such as L2s, wallets, DeFi, oracles and even future AI agents, are often re‑centralizing the very risks Ethereum was built to remove. Buterin calls to build radically new AI‑native, privacy‑first apps, but do it in a way that cannot override the chain’s cryptographic guarantees. “It Also Includes Culture” Then, he moves to another critique on the short-term casino culture that seems to be taking over Ethereum. Referencing the Milady NFT’s, he calls the attention out to a very specific crypto vibe: the hyper‑online, irony‑poisoned, degenerate, meme‑driven speculation. For Buterin, Milady represents an environment where attention, aesthetics and in‑group memes matter more than building tools that help people under capital controls, censorship, or real economic stress. By invoking Milady, he’s asking: are we going to keep optimizing Ethereum for this kind of self‑referential, nihilistic fun, or are we finally going to ship “sanctuary tech” that someone in a crisis would actually rely on?. He says: Yes, it’s a silly meme. Yes, I find the political takes of some milady partisans cringe and sometimes outright bootlickerish (though other milady partisans are quite the opposite). But the core underlying subtext, the message behind the message, is: rip off the suit and tie. If you have your suit and tie on, be willing to grab the nearest wine glass and spill it all over your suit and tie, so you have no choice but to rip it off and reclaim your body’s full flexibility and freedom. “How Ethereum Can Grow Back Stronger” At the end of his reflection, Vitalik Buterin makes it very clear. Recognizing the “solid position” the project now has, and all the “amazing” things Ethereum has achieved, the goal for it should no longer be searching for “the next step to make it one step better”, but to ask “what are the most valuable things to build, knowing what we know now?”. Ethereum can only grow back stronger, Buterin says, if builders treat its base layer as untouchable public infrastructure and push all the wild experimentation into AI‑native, privacy‑first apps and L2s that still inherit its full trustless guarantees.

Culper Research disclosed a short position in ether and ETH-linked securities on Thursday, arguing that Ethereum’s post-upgrade economics have deteriorated enough to put sustained downside pressure on the token. The firm pointed directly at Ethereum’s December 2025 Fusaka upgrade, and at Vitalik Buterin’s recent sales, as evidence that “ETH is going lower.” “NEW: We are short Ether ETH, and ETH-linked securities, incl. BMNR,” Culper wrote on X. “We think ETH tokenomics are impaired following the December 2025 Fusaka upgrade. Vitalik knows it and is selling, while ETH’s most ardent bull, Tom Lee, is throwing good money after bad.” Why Culper Is Shorting Ethereum Culper’s core claim is that Fusaka’s L1 scaling changes altered Ethereum’s demand-fee dynamic more dramatically than expected. The firm pointed to a gas limit increase “45 to 60M” that it said was intended to scale Ethereum’s base layer, alongside estimates that “Vitalik and PTG” believed fees would drop 10% to 30%. Culper contends the realized outcome was far more severe: “In reality, gas fees fell ~90%,” it wrote, adding that Ethereum’s leadership and validators “miscalculated L1 demand elasticity by 3-9x based on outdated math (pre-EIP-1559 and pre-L2s).” Related Reading: Ethereum Price Corrects Gains, Drifts Toward Key Support Zone That fee compression matters, Culper argues, because it ripples into validator economics and staking incentives. “Further, the gas-limit increase killed $ETH validators, who are now seeing 40-50% lower tips per gas,” Culper wrote, claiming that lower yields reduce demand for staking and “high-value activity,” undermining the institutional adoption narrative. “The flywheel is now running in reverse.” The thread frames Tom Lee and BMNR as a prominent counterweight in the ETH bull camp, then attempts to dismantle his post-upgrade read-through. Culper said Lee has defended ether by claiming: “ETH is not in a death spiral because utility is going up.” According to Culper, Lee cited spikes in active addresses and transaction counts after Fusaka as evidence of “strengthening fundamentals” and institutional adoption. Culper’s rebuttal is blunt and largely definitional: “By Lee’s own logic, if ETH activity does NOT reflect increased utility and strengthening fundamentals, then $ETH would be in a death spiral,” it wrote. “Our research says this is exactly what’s happening.” Related Reading: Scaling Ethereum For Mainstream: Robinhood’s Head Of Crypto Lays Out The Vision To explain the activity surge, Culper said its analysis of on-chain data from January 2025 through February 2026 suggests much of the growth was not organic usage, but a wave of low-value address poisoning and wallet dusting enabled by cheaper blockspace. “Post-Fusaka: 95% of growth in new wallets is explained by newly-created ‘dusting’ wallets,” Culper wrote, adding that poisoning attacks have “more than 3x’ed,” that poisoning explains “>50% of $ETH transaction growth,” and that it now constitutes “22.5% of all ETH transactions.” Culper said it validated the phenomenon firsthand, claiming it set up two new wallets, transferred between them, and was targeted by poisoning attacks “within 5 minutes,” while asserting that poisoning losses are “already pacing >8x higher than pre-Fusaka.” Vitalik Is Selling The firm also tried to tie its tokenomics thesis to Buterin’s recent sales activity, portraying it as informed selling rather than routine treasury management. “This is why, we think, Vitalik is selling ETH hand over fist. On January 30, Vitalik pre-announced he’d sell 16,384 ETH to fund the Foundation’s ‘austerity period.’ Since then, he’s sold over 19,300 ETH and counting,” Culper wrote. “He knows what Tom Lee doesn’t: ETH tokenomics are broken.” Culper closed by broadening the bear case into a competition story, claiming ether is losing share to Solana and to Ethereum’s own L2s, and likening ETH’s current position to incumbents that led early eras before being displaced. At press time, ETH traded at $2,080. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

As the crypto market bounces from the latest shakeout, Ethereum (ETH) and investment products based on the King of Altcoins recorded a remarkable single-day performance, potentially setting the stage for further recovery. Related Reading: Bitcoin Surge To $74,000 Fueled By US Institutions, Coinbase Premium Signals Ethereum ETFs Recover Amid Market Bounce Ethereum-based spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) recovered from Tuesday’s weak performance and recorded their best single-day in nearly two months, with $169 million in inflows on Wednesday. According to SoSoValue data, the category saw the highest netflow since January 14, when it drew in $175 million. Notably, the mid-January crypto market correction triggered massive outflows for investment products, with funds based on the two largest crypto assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and ETH, showing the weakest performance. Ethereum ETFs saw a five-week negative streak, bleeding $1.38 billion during this period. However, the funds ended their weekly outflow run last week after posting inflows worth $80.46 million. So far, the products have drawn in $197.35 million this week, potentially setting a base to register their best weekly performance since January 16, when it closed the week with $479.04 million. Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro, recently highlighted that the strength of crypto ETFs, despite growing geopolitical tensions and financial markets’ selloff, could be seen as “a victory for cryptocurrencies,” suggesting that some traders may be considering digital assets as a safe haven. Meanwhile, James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, emphasized that “recent client discussions have been almost entirely focused on identifying entry points rather than reducing exposure to the asset class.” ETH At A Structural Decision Point Ethereum’s price climbed 12% on Wednesday, its highest level since February 4. Amid the market recovery, the cryptocurrency reclaimed the $2,100 barrier and reached a one-month high of to $2,199 before retracing. The king of altcoins has been trading between the $1,825-$2,150 levels since the early February breakdown, unable to break past the upper boundary of its local range. Analyst Rekt Capital pointed out that ETH closed the month just below a crucial multi-year ascending trendline, which has served as macro support and a decisive directional point over the years. This places the price in a structurally bearish position, as it enables a monthly retest of this level as resistance instead of support. The analyst emphasized that if this trendline becomes a resistance, it would confirm a breakdown from the macro structure and increase the likelihood of a deeper move into a key horizontal zone and historical demand cluster situated around the $1,600 region. “If Ethereum rejects from the trendline and the current bounce retraces in full, that rejection would signal the trendline dissipating as support and confirm the breakdown scenario,” he stated. Related Reading: Pundit Says XRP Price At $100 Is Not Insane If You Understand This However, he noted that bearish continuation is not confirmed yet, explaining that if ETH manages to reclaim the trendline as support in the monthly timeframe, the horizontal zone and historical supply area around the $2,250-$2,500 levels could act as a relief cluster “where price may rally before the market determines its next directional move.” “For now, Ethereum remains at a structural decision point around the multi-year trendline,” he concluded.

Ethereum price is now trading above $2,080 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $2,020 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. If the bulls remain in action above $2,020, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,150 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,180 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,200 level. A clear move above the $2,200 resistance might send the price toward the $2,250 resistance. An upside break above the $2,250 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,320 resistance zone or even $2,350 in the near term. Downside Correction In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,150 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,080 level. The first major support sits near the $2,065 zone or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1,929 swing low to the $2,200 high. A clear move below the $2,065 support might push the price toward the $2,020 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $1,980 region. The main support could be $1,920.

As demand for digital assets continues to accelerate, scaling solutions have become one of the most important challenges facing Ethereum. In a recent discussion, Robinhood’s Head of Crypto outlined the company’s ambitious strategy to tackle this problem by building its own ETH Layer-2 network to serve mainstream users. Rather than merely participating in the broader ecosystem, Robinhood aims to solve core usability barriers that have hindered mass adoption. Why Ethereum Needs To Scale For Mass Adoption Robinhood’s head of crypto explains why they’re building an Ethereum layer-2. According to a video that was reported on X by Etherealize, Robinhood stated that many companies are launching their own layer-1 blockchain to gain full control over their ecosystems. Meanwhile, Robinhood is excited about the idea of building a stack, but creating the security of a real, proper, decentralized chain is extremely difficult, and only ETH can offer that for free.

Without deep decentralization, some of these chains risk becoming little more than a fancy database, slower than the actual database, and there’s no meaningful value in that. Robinhood explains that ETH can offer security by default, and the second major factor that the company considered in choosing to build a layer-2 on top of ETH was liquidity, which is on every EVM-compatible chain, and was also an important decision factor for the company. However, if the long-term goal is to bring traditional assets such as stocks on-chain, it will require liquidity, and this won’t be possible if it’s in a closed loop or closed chain that no individual can assess. For the company, these two elements were the main focus, which is why they decided to build on ETH. ETH’s Role In The Sanctuary-Tech Movement Ethereum Daily revealed on X that Vitalik Buterin emphasized that ETH should not be reduced to a speculative finance tool or technology fad. Instead, it should be part of a foundational layer within a broader sanctuary-technology infrastructure ecosystem designed to provide an open-source, censorship-resistant way for individuals to store value, coordinate, and communicate safely without relying on centralized gatekeepers.

This includes building persistent digital spaces, programmable money, multigeniture wallets for collective asset security, and government contracts that allow communities to make decisions transparently and autonomously. When these components are integrated across all layers from user wallets to hardware, they form resilient digital islands capable of operating independently of any single authority. By limiting concentrated control and distributing power through code, ETH can help create systems that enable users to retain custody, privacy, and security in a chaotic geopolitical environment.
