Sector-wide market analysis: dominance, liquidity, on-chain flows, whale activity, and exchange in/outflows.
Manuel Bllye — the analyst who nailed the October bearish call before the slide to $60K — says his model has now flipped and Ethereum confirming Bitcoin's higher highs is what seals the read.
St. Louis Fed's Musalem now sees core inflation near 3% for 2026 and rates potentially unchanged — the bullish case for BTC's liquidity tailwind is suddenly conditional on Hormuz traffic normalising…
Chart structures for ETH and the ex-top-10 altcoin index are nearly identical, both sitting ~1,600 days off the 2021 high with prior cycle drawdowns of 82-94% already priced in — the upside math is…
Binance alone cleared $1.09T in 2026 volume — and the BIS says the platforms with the deepest books are exactly the ones behaving like unregulated banks, with no capital buffers, no deposit…
Spot has done the work — 11% this month, $2,330 high, a 10-day ETF inflow streak — but the $322M pile-up at Deribit's $3,200 calls shows derivatives are now pricing the next leg, while leverage is…
Raw dollar losses look similar — roughly $2.6B in TradFi and $2.8B in DeFi in 2025 — but volume-adjusted, DeFi loses at an 86x higher rate, and the marketing damage may outlast the math.
The $404K Maduro contract trade is the proof-of-concept the CFTC needed to assert that event contracts sit inside its antifraud perimeter — the first Eddie Murphy Rule case of its kind.
The Ethereum Foundation has sold close to $24 million worth of ETH to Bitmine Immersion, the crypto investment firm…
Spot bitcoin ETFs pulled in $223.2 million in net inflows on Thursday alone, with BlackRock's IBIT accounting for…
Bitcoin has pulled back to retest its February highs just below the $80,000 mark and is now consolidating in a tight…
Two months of steady long accumulation on the leading on-chain perps venue reads less like a tactical scalp and more like whales positioning for a structural breakout.
The breakout above the True Market Mean is real, but the Short-Term Holder Cost Basis at $80.1K is now the ceiling that decides whether the squeeze fires or the rally stalls.
The Glassnode risk gauge has cleared to zero for the first time in seven months — a level the firm's research desk says has historically lined up with the start of structural upside phases for BTC.
Sharp put/call ratio swings on BlackRock's IBIT options show desks repositioning into a market that's hugging the $70K BTC line — the bid is being tested, not abandoned.
The reclaim is technically bullish but historically reads as a bear-market relief bounce — the same setup that preceded Q3-Q4 2022's dead-cat rallies before ETH bottomed.
Profit-taking and cautious options positioning are capping the move: a sustained push past the $78.1K True Market Mean hinge requires the market to absorb rising overhead supply first.
The Relative Unrealized Loss gauge puts SOL holders 54.8% below cost basis and XRP holders down 31.8% — a far heavier drawdown than the 11.9% sitting on BTC, a sign the top is concentrated in…
Price is up, conviction isn't: thin Binance spot volume, rolling-over futures, and only modestly positive ETF flows all point to a low-conviction rebound rather than a structural turn.
The 30-day SMA of relative LTH unrealized loss is far from the ~70% threshold past cycles have resolved at — historically, that gap has closed only after deeper drawdowns.
