Bitmine has increased its bet on Ethereum (ETH) with a $137 million purchase, as the King of Altcoins reclaims the crucial $2,150 level, and some market observers call for the end of the crypto market correction. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Return to Profitability as Historical Bottom Signal Reappears Bitmine Adds 65,000 ETH Amid End Of Crypto Winter Calls On Monday, the largest Ethereum treasury in the world, Bitmine, announced it continued to ramp up its bet on the King of Altcoins by purchasing roughly $137 million in ETH last week. In its weekly update, the company reported it acquired 65,341 ETH over the past week, maintaining its “increased pace of ETH buys in each of the past three weeks.” This represents a significant increase in the average 45,000-50,000 ETH acquisitions from prior weeks. Notably, Bitmine’s latest purchase has pushed the company’s total crypto and cash holdings to $11 billion at current prices. As of March 22, the second-largest crypto treasury firm holds 4,660,903 ETH, 196 Bitcoin (BTC), a $200 million stake in Beast Industries, a $95 million stake in Eightco Holdings as part of its “Moonshots” initiative, and unencumbered cash worth $1.1 billion. In addition, it holds 3.86% of ETH’s total supply, and nears its goal to control 5% of the leading altcoin’s 120.7 million supply. Meanwhile, the firm’s total staked ETH stands at 3,142,643, worth $6.5 billion at $2,072 per ETH. Bitmine’s chairman, Tom Lee, highlighted that the company maintained its increasing purchasing pace due to its base case that “ETH is in the final stages of the ‘mini-crypto winter.’” As he noted, “crypto and particularly ETH have outperformed the broader market since the Iran war commenced, with ETH rising 18% and outperforming equities by 2,450bp.” To Lee, this has demonstrated that cryptocurrencies are a “good ‘wartime’ store of value.” He also highlighted the US Congress’s recent progress on the CLARITY Act, affirming that it will be a positive fundamental catalyst for Ethereum and “another reason probabilities favor the crypto winter as being largely behind us.” Ethereum Bullish Momentum Returned? On Monday morning, Ethereum rose alongside the rest of the crypto market after President Donald Trump announced he was postponing planned strikes on Iranian energy power plants for five days. Ethereum surged 8% from the $2,000 psychological level, reclaiming the crucial $2,150 area. Analyst Ali Martinez noted that the King of Altcoin is “showing signs of a major structural shift,” as it has shown the strongest combination of technical support and on-chain signals in months. From a technical perspective, Ethereum is currently trading within a multi-year ascending triangle pattern on the weekly chart. This pattern suggests a potential breakout towards the $10,000 level. As he explained, the recent move toward $1,800 served as “a critical reaction point, aligning with the rising trendline of this multi-year structure.” In addition, on-chain data confirms that the recovery “wasn’t just a random bounce,” with the MVRV ratio recently dropping below 0.8, which historically has been a “generational buy zone.” The fact that this on-chain reset happened exactly as price tested the triangle’s support adds massive weight to the bullish thesis. He also highlighted that the key SuperTrend indicator has flipped from Sell to Buy for the first time since May, suggesting that the extended sideways period is ending, and a new uptrend is beginning. Related Reading: Dogecoin Could 200% Rally If This Floor Holds, Analyst Says Martinez concluded that a sustained move above the $2,350 area would be the first signal that Ethereum is exiting its accumulation range and entering a “true bull market expansion” and that any dips into the $1,800-$2,000 range should be “viewed as an opportunity as long as the $1,800 floor remains intact.” Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy and led by Michael Saylor, disclosed a new Bitcoin (BTC) acquisition on Monday while simultaneously unveiling an ambitious capital-raising program designed to push its holdings toward a 1 million‑coin milestone by the end of 2026. Strategy Reports Weekly Buy Amid Consolidation In its routine Monday filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Strategy reported spending $76.5 million to add 1,031 BTC to its treasury.  The purchase came as Bitcoin traded back within the consolidation band it has occupied for roughly two months, between about $60,000 and $72,000, after a failed attempt to break through and consolidate key resistance at $76,000 last week.  The move continues the public company’s weekly pattern of disclosing its purchases. Over the past few years, it has become the largest corporate holder of digital assets after beginning to rapidly acquire Bitcoin in 2021. Related Reading: Ethereum Bottom Signal? Analyst Maps Out Road To $10,000 Data compiled by Bitcointreasuries.net shows Strategy holds 762,099 BTC as of March 23. At the time of publication, that stake was valued at nearly $57.7 billion, based on an average entry price of $75,694 per coin.  Beyond that recent trade, Strategy also amended its corporate authorizations to support a much larger campaign to amass the market’s leading cryptocurrency.  The company disclosed plans to raise up to $42 billion in new capital, split evenly between as much as $21 billion of Class A common stock (MSTR) and $21 billion of Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (STRC), which would give Strategy substantial purchasing power to accelerate its Bitcoin accumulation goal. 600,000 More Bitcoin By Year‑End? At current prices near $70,500, the $42 billion program could theoretically fund the purchase of roughly 595,000 additional Bitcoin, which would not only meet but materially exceed the company’s stated 1 million‑coin aspiration by year‑end.  If executed in full, the raise would push Strategy’s total holdings to more than 1.35 million BTC—surpassing even its ambitious public targets—and represent about 6.42% of BTC’s 21 million fixed supply, according to Bitcointreasuries.net. Related Reading: 4 Bitcoin Targets To Be On The Lookout For As Price Retests S/R Zone CEO Phong Le highlighted the symbolism of the $42 billion figure in a post on X (formerly Twitter), quoting The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: “42 is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.” Le noted the neatness of the 21 + 21 split, which mirrors Bitcoin’s 21 million supply cap. Simultaneously, the cryptocurrency rebounded by almost 3% on Monday, beginning the day on the same optimistic note as the start of last week’s advance. However, short-term losses currently outweigh profits for BTC, as CoinGecko data show a 4% decline over the past week.  Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com

Ethereum price started a recovery wave from the $2,025 zone. ETH is now consolidating above $2,120 and might struggle to clear the $2,200 resistance. Ethereum started a recovery wave above the $2,120 zone. The price is trading above $2,120 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is still a key bearish trend line active with resistance at $2,165 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a fresh decline if it stays below the $2,165 resistance. Ethereum Price Faces Resistance Ethereum price managed to stay above $2,000 and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin. ETH price was able to climb above the $2,080 and $2,120 resistance levels. The price cleared the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,385 swing high to the $2,025 low. More importantly, there was a break above one of the two bearish trend lines with resistance at $2,120 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. Ethereum price is now trading above $2,100 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. However, the bears are active near $2,180. Besides, there is still a key bearish trend line active with resistance at $2,165. If the bulls remain in action above $2,065, the price could attempt another increase. Immediate resistance is seen near the $2,165 level. The first key resistance is near the $2,200 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,250 level. A clear move above the $2,250 resistance might send the price toward the $2,300 resistance or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,385 swing high to the $2,025 low. An upside break above the $2,300 region might call for more gains in the coming days. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,350 resistance zone or even $2,400 in the near term. Another Decline In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,165 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,120 level. The first major support sits near the $2,065 zone. A clear move below the $2,065 support might push the price toward the $2,025 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,000 region. The main support could be $1,940. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for ETH/USD is losing momentum in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI – The RSI for ETH/USD is now above the 50 zone.

#bitcoin #btc #bitcoin news #btcusdt #bitcoin long-term holders #bitcoin diamond hands #bitcoin hodlers

On-chain data shows the Bitcoin long-term holders have seen their supply go up recently, despite the unconvincing price action in the cryptocurrency. Bitcoin Long-Term Holder Supply Has Surged By 332,000 Over The Past Month As pointed out by CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn in an X post, the Bitcoin long-term holder supply has been following an uptrend recently. The “long-term holders” (LTHs) refer to the BTC investors who have been holding onto their coins for more than 155 days. Related Reading: Bitcoin Shark & Whale Wallets Jump Despite Bearish Price Action The LTHs make up for one of the two main divisions of the BTC market done on the basis of holding time; the other side, containing coins aged 155 days or less, is called the “short-term holders” (STHs). Statistically, the longer an investor keeps their coins dormant, the less likely they become to sell them in the future. As such, the STHs with their low holding time can be considered to include the weak hands of the market, while the LTHs can represent the stalwart diamonds. Now, here is the chart shared by Maartunn that shows the recent 30-day net position change trend in the supply of these two Bitcoin groups: As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin LTHs saw a negative monthly supply change during the second half of 2025, implying members of the cohort were breaking their dormancy, potentially to participate in selling. From the chart, it’s apparent that the selloff was the most intense during November, suggesting even the diamond hands of the network were reacting to the crash. The metric remained negative for the rest of the year, but in 2026, a shift has occurred; the LTH netflow has been positive since January and its value has only been climbing over time. Currently, it’s sitting at +332,600 BTC. Something to keep in mind is that while declines in the LTH supply can reflect distribution, the reverse isn’t true. This is because coins only become part of the LTH group after they have been held for a period of over 155 days. Thus, an increase in the LTH supply doesn’t mean that accumulation is happening in the present, but rather that it took place five months ago. Selling has no such delay attached as tokens see their age instantly reset back to zero as soon as they are involved in a network transaction. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bearish Positioning Persists As Funding Rates Hold Negative Nonetheless, a rise in the LTH supply is naturally still a useful signal, reflecting an increased tolerance for long-term holding among investors. Interestingly, the recent large 30-day inflow into the group has come while the market has gone through uncertainty owing to the war. As such, it would appear that a segment of the investors continue to believe in Bitcoin even in these circumstances. BTC Price At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $68,500, down more than 6% in the last week. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView.com

A crypto analyst who previously warned traders and investors that the recent Bitcoin (BTC) price surge could be a fluke has shared a new update. Confirming that his earlier prediction was accurate, the analyst now provides insight on where Bitcoin is really headed as it continues to navigate the ongoing bear market.  Where The Bitcoin Price Is Headed Next DeFi researcher and market analyst Sherlock has taken to X to share a fresh update on an analysis he published earlier last week. In this new report, Sherlock presented a rather foreboding Bitcoin price forecast, suggesting that the world’s largest cryptocurrency is heading toward new lows around $53,000 soon.  Related Reading: Pundit Shares Everything To Understand About Bitcoin, ‘This Cycle IS Different’ He emphasized that the $53,000 level was not a random bearish target but a point established after multiple data signals converged, which also corresponds to Bitcoin’s next weekly support level. According to Sherlock, Bitcoin’s record high last week near $76,000 was a deviation he had anticipated despite some traders hoping that the rebound could become a sustainable breakout.  The analyst noted that the weekly candle on the chart is expected to confirm this deviation trend if it closes below $72,500. Sherlock also drew parallels to a January price movement, when the Bitcoin price climbed to $94,500 before crashing by approximately 38%. Usually, in crypto market terms, this type of action is called a “fakeout,” which is when the price briefly breaches key resistance levels, enticing traders to enter positions, before rapidly reversing in the opposite direction.  Currently, the Bitcoin price is hovering around $68,100, more than 10% below its previous high of $76,000 set last week. The cryptocurrency suffered a sharp, unexpected collapse in a single day following reports of a hawkish stance by the US Federal Reserve (FED). After briefly dipping toward the $70,000 level that day, Bitcoin has continued on a downward trajectory.  Data from CoinMarketCap also indicate that BTC’s decline was further accelerated by a surge in geopolitical tensions, after US President Donald Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran, triggering a broader sell-off across risk assets.  A Look Back At BTC’s $76,000 Fluke In his previous analysis, Sherlock had cautioned traders not to get baited by short-term Bitcoin price spikes. He noted that during the last major deviation in January 2026, many traders went long, only to incur significant losses after Bitcoin’s price collapsed over the next five weeks.  Related Reading: Is This The Bitcoin Price Bottom Or A Fakeout? Analyst Reveals When You Shouldn’t Be Excited The analyst had warned that if Bitcoin fails to close above $74,500 on the weekly chart, its brief rebound would be nothing more than a deviation, not a true breakout. Sherlock added that, with the FOMC meeting last week and market consensus expecting another interest-rate pause, the outlook for Bitcoin is far from bullish. He described Bitcoin’s previous rebound as a trap, likely engineered to lure investors and traders into long positions prematurely. Featured image from Pngtree, chart from Tradingview.com

John Haar, managing director at Swan Private, says the policy response to COVID remains one of the clearest catalysts for Bitcoin adoption in recent years and argued that another large-scale round of money creation is likely a matter of when, not if. In an interview with Milk Road, Haar said the next “big print” may emerge within the next three to 24 months, driven by anything from war and banking stress to pension insolvency or AI-related labor disruption. The Next Big Print Favors Bitcoin Haar framed the argument less as a prediction of an imminent event and more as a recurring feature of the monetary system. He pointed to COVID-era stimulus and balance sheet expansion as a lived experience that changed how many investors thought about fiat risk and scarcity. “Like you said, two big prints kind of in most people’s adult lifetime, and the most recent one being COVID,” Haar said. “And I can just say, I saw firsthand how many people that affected people to say, whoa, that, you know, as all those things I said, they can just print money, stimulus checks, et cetera, et cetera. But I also, this is not just a theory, because I’ve seen it firsthand, hundreds of clients at SWAN who I’ve talked to.” Related Reading: If Bitcoin Price Doesn’t Hold Take And Hold $69,000 With Momentum, It Could Get Very Bad That direct client experience appeared central to his point. Haar said one of the first questions he asks new clients is about their “Bitcoin story,” and he described a recurring pattern among those who entered the asset after witnessing the monetary and fiscal response to the pandemic. In his telling, COVID did not merely validate a macro thesis for existing Bitcoin holders; it created a new cohort of buyers who saw policy discretion up close and drew their own conclusions. He tied that experience to a broader historical rhythm. Referencing Lawrence Lappard’s book The Big Print, Haar suggested that periodic bursts of money creation are not anomalies but episodes the system revisits “with some frequency.” He stopped well short of calling for an immediate repeat, however, and explicitly pushed back on near-term alarmism. “I’m not one of these people who’s saying it’s going to happen next month,” Haar said. “That’s usually too premature. You should typically fade those calls. But I do think it is a matter of time.” A notable part of Haar’s argument was psychological rather than purely macroeconomic. As the COVID shock recedes further into the rearview mirror, he said, investors risk slipping back into complacency. “As more years go by, this is just human nature,” he said, adding that people begin to forget “how crazy that monetary response was” and return to a kind of policy normalcy bias. In his view, that fading memory does not reduce the odds of another major intervention; it simply makes markets less mentally prepared for one. Related Reading: Bitcoin Shark & Whale Wallets Jump Despite Bearish Price Action He then laid out a range of possible triggers. A “large scale geopolitical war or military mobilization” was one, though he said current tensions do not yet qualify and would need to escalate much further. He also pointed to AI-driven labor displacement, state budget collapses, pension insolvency, renewed regional banking stress, a private credit crisis, structural entitlement expansion through programs such as Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare or student loan forgiveness, and major climate or natural disasters. The next big print is coming (bookmark this). Timeline: 3 to 24 months. The triggers: AI job displacement, state budget collapses, pension insolvency, regional bank crises, geopolitical war. “I believe that one of those things or multiple of those things will happen.” pic.twitter.com/1x1bgvl612 — Milk Road (@MilkRoad) March 22, 2026 “And then lastly, this has kind of been on the list for all of human history,” Haar said, “but if there’s some sort of major climate disaster or natural disaster, something like that could cause a big print.
