Bitcoin was down 44% from its $126,000 all-time highs as key onchain and technical indicators suggested BTC is entering the late phase of the bear market.
A California judge has certified an investor class in the Nvidia securities suit over alleged misstatements on crypto mining GPU sales, advancing the case toward a potential trial.
Bitcoin dropped below $70,000 and ether fell toward $2,000 as rising oil prices, falling equities and weak liquidity sparked risk-off flows and pressured altcoins.
Bitcoin has clawed its way back toward $70,000 after a sharp slide to roughly $67,000, but Glassnode says the rebound still lacks the kind of demand profile needed to turn stabilization into a more durable recovery. In its latest weekly report from March 25, titled Awaiting Liquidity, the on-chain analytics firm argued that several pressure points have eased at once, including sell-side intensity, ETF outflows and dealer-driven market imbalances. Even so, muted spot volumes, subdued leverage and a dense band of overhead supply suggest the market is not yet in a high-conviction breakout phase. Weak Spot Bitcoin Demand Could Limit The Upside Glassnode’s central point is that the structure has improved, but not enough to declare the correction finished. “Bitcoin is beginning to show some constructive signs after a sharp corrective move, with price stabilising, ETF flows improving, and derivatives positioning becoming less one-sided,” the report said. “The pressure that defined the recent selloff appears to be easing, and the market is starting to look more balanced than it did a week ago.” That balance, however, sits inside a narrow and still fragile range. Glassnode said a new accumulation cluster is forming around current levels, with the 1-week to 1-month cohort carrying a cost basis near $70,200. That gives the market a developing support floor, but one the firm described as vulnerable because the current base of buyers remains modest. Related Reading: Bitcoin Whales Go Silent: Large Transactions Plummet Above the market, the resistance picture is heavier. The 1-month to 3-month holder cohort sits around $82,200, while Glassnode also flagged a larger cluster of short-term holder supply between roughly $93,000 and $97,000. Elsewhere in the report, it noted “a notably heavy concentration of short-term holder supply above $84k,” describing that inventory as a potential source of renewed sell pressure on any sustained recovery attempt. The on-chain backdrop also points to a market under stress, but not one showing outright panic. Relative unrealized losses have stabilized above 15% of market cap over the past two months, a pattern Glassnode said resembles the fear seen in the second quarter of 2022, though still well short of capitulation episodes like the FTX collapse. At the same time, realized profitability has thinned out dramatically. Entity-adjusted realized profit, using a 7-day moving average, has fallen from around $3 billion per day in July 2025 to below $100 million now, a decline of more than 96%. For Glassnode, that speaks to both sides of the current setup: fewer profitable sellers left to distribute coins, but also a weaker flow of fresh capital into the market. “Spot market activity remains relatively muted following the sharp selloff into the $67k region, with aggregate exchange volumes showing only a modest response during the subsequent recovery,” the report said. Related Reading: Bitcoin Miner Supply Shock Hasn’t Arrived Yet, New Data Suggests Compared to the stronger participation seen during prior impulsive advances, current spot volumes remain soft. This suggests the rebound back toward $70k has so far been supported more by selective dip-buying and short-term repositioning than by broad-based spot demand returning at scale.” That is the missing ingredient in Glassnode’s view. ETF flows have improved, with the 7-day average turning modestly positive after an extended stretch of outflows, suggesting early institutional re-engagement. But the firm stressed that the scale of those inflows remains limited compared with earlier accumulation phases. Derivatives markets tell a similarly cautious story. Perpetual funding rates remain negative, implying traders are still paying to hold downside exposure, while futures open interest has stayed relatively subdued rather than expanding alongside the bounce. Options markets are no longer flashing acute stress, but they are not pricing strong upside conviction either. Short-dated skew remains tilted toward puts, showing continued demand for downside protection, even as longer-dated positioning looks more balanced. A major near-term variable is Friday’s weekly, monthly and quarterly options expiry. Glassnode said dealers remain concentrated in short gamma between $70,000 and $75,000, with around $10 billion of that positioning set to roll off. Once that mechanical influence clears, BTC may become more sensitive to broader macro and liquidity conditions. At press time, BTC traded at $69,961.

Crypto exchange Bitrue made a bold claim Tuesday: XRP is trading at a fraction of where it belongs. With the coin sitting around $1.42, Bitrue put the fair value at $10 — more than seven times its current price and a market cap that would top $610 billion. Related Reading: Bernstein Sets $150,000 Bitcoin Target As ETF Inflows Surpass $1.6B In March Derivatives Data Tells A Different Story Than The Price Chart The numbers in the futures market are raising eyebrows. XRP’s open interest climbed to $2.60 billion, a 7% jump in a single day, according to data from CoinGlass. That kind of move during a price dip signals something specific: traders are opening new positions, and those positions are leaning long. Although the price of $XRP is falling, there is no increase in short positions. On the contrary, long positions are increasing slightly. There is no downside pressure in the $XRP futures market. In addition, an increase in OI indicates a desire to buy long positions at low… pic.twitter.com/F8wnhWKUsO — CW (@CW8900) March 24, 2026 Analysts flagged the pattern. Short positions have not been piling up the way they typically do when a market turns bearish. Instead, traders appear to be buying into the weakness, a sign that many expect a price recovery rather than a continued slide. XRP dropped nearly 4% over the past week. But the futures market is not behaving like one bracing for more pain. #XRP should be $10 https://t.co/YxP3OSiom0 — Bitrue (@BitrueOfficial) March 25, 2026 What The Charts Say About Possible Downside Not every analyst is calling a bottom. A separate technical analysis flagged XRP as potentially still inside a corrective pattern — what Elliott Wave traders call a Wave 2/5 retracement. Under that reading, the price could briefly push toward $1.51 before pulling back more sharply. Key downside levels being watched include $1.12, where a double-bottom formation could take shape, and $0.87, which many traders regard as a strong long-term accumulation zone. Reports indicate some see the current price action as a late-stage shakeout — a test of conviction before a larger move upward. That tension is sitting at the center of XRP’s current moment. The short-term and long-term pictures are not telling the same story. XRP: Long-Term Targets Remain In Play Despite Recent Weakness Longer-term forecasts for XRP have not shifted. Price targets of $5 and higher — including the $10 figure Bitrue cited — continue to circulate among analysts and community members. Those targets are tied to broader narratives: growing institutional interest, Ripple’s resolved legal standoff with the SEC, and expanding adoption of blockchain-based payment infrastructure. Related Reading: Iran Rejects Peace Talk Claims, Leaving Bitcoin Stuck At $70K Missouri recently moved to designate XRP as an official reserve asset — a step that adds a layer of institutional credibility the coin did not carry a few years ago. Reports note that skeptics remain. XRP has a history of slow upward movement punctuated by sharp pullbacks, and even believers in a $10 target acknowledge that significant volatility could accompany any rise toward that level. For now, XRP sits in a narrow range, down on the week but holding its footing. The derivatives market suggests traders are not walking away. They are waiting.
