🔥 BlackRock continues depositing funds to exchanges

Today, they deposited 2,500 BTC (~$170M) to Coinbase.

Over the past 10 days, their ETH + BTC ETF flows have been negative by nearly ~$1B.

P/S: The U.S. trading session is about to begin.

👀 Eric Trump shills BTC again live on CNBC

He shared that, based on Bitcoin’s historical average annual growth rate, Bitcoin will soon reach $1 million. He said he has never been more optimistic about Bitcoin in his life.

P/s: Still remember clearly when Eric Trump once said that Q4 for crypto would be unimaginable 🙏

🔥 Donald Trump issues an ultimatum to Iran

Donald Trump has demanded that the United States reach a meaningful agreement with Iran within the next 10 days.

He warned that the U.S. may have to go further if negotiations fail, and that Iran must reach a deal — otherwise, serious consequences will follow.

Iran must not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons.

With this kind of tone, it seems unlikely that an agreement will be reached 🙏

👀 $ETHFI has notable on-chain activity.

A few hours ago, $ETHFI worth $1.9 million was transferred from an Anchorage Digital wallet to another wallet.

Historically, these tokens have been gradually moved to Binance each month.

After that, the price has typically tended to dump by an average of 15%.

💡Since $ETH formed its bottom, altcoin trading volume has increased significantly compared to the previous cycle. 📈

Altcoins are seeing extremely high trading volumes, with thick buy walls appearing across the market.

While most retail investors are selling altcoins out of fear, other capital flows are quietly absorbing all that selling pressure.

The groundwork for the next bullish cycle is silently taking place, backed by unprecedented buying power. 🔥

🔥 The U.S. Supreme Court Rejects Trump’s Global Tariff Policy

The Supreme Court of the United States has officially ruled that President Trump’s tariffs are unlawful.

The United States is now facing nearly $200 billion in potential tariff refunds.

It’s unclear whether this is good or bad news for the market.

Hong Kong.

The Multipli × Pantera VIP Dinner brought together our partners, LPs, investors, and fellow visionaries shaping the next wave of institutional DeFi.

$AAVE is facing the worst on-chain activity of the year.

Specifically, last night, as many as six whale wallets were continuously selling $AAVE.

These wallets are not related to each other: some previously bought the token, some withdrew tokens from DeFi platforms, and others received tokens from team wallets.

List of wallets:

🧐 Vitalik continues selling ETH after two weeks of silence

With nearly $1 million worth sold recently, Vitalik Buterin has now sold a total of approximately 7,500 ETH, equivalent to nearly $16 million. 🙄

🔥 $200M liquidated in just the past hour. 🥲

📉🔻The Crypto Fear & Greed Index has reached its lowest level in history.

This is the same level recorded in 2019 — an index reading of 5, signaling that the market is in a state of Extreme Fear.

Historically, Extreme Fear zones often appear near medium- or long-term market bottoms, when investor sentiment is pushed to its limits.

When the majority of the market is panicking, liquidity is weak, and negative news is overwhelming, it often marks a transition phase from weak hands to strong hands.

However, in a volatile macroeconomic environment, fear can persist longer than expected.

YieldFi(@GetYieldFi) update:

yPRISM is fully yours!

Our pre-deposit campaign with @OpenEden_X & @ClearstarLabs has ended, with over $20M+ in TVL from early adopters.

→ Liquidity is now open
→ EDEN rewards snapshot taken, distribution by March 1
→ Vault continues earning yield through active DeFi strategies

The stablecoin market capitalization is moving sideways around $309 billion.

This is NOT a positive signal — it’s a double concern:
🔹 Crypto prices are falling, and capital is rotating into stablecoins as a safe haven.
🔹 BUT despite that shift, the total stablecoin market cap is not increasing.

This suggests that real liquidity is stagnating or quietly exiting the market.

🧐 Signs of a whale selling $ARC as the price rises.

The following whale accumulated 1.7M $ARC and has started gradually selling.

So far, around $200K worth of $ARC has been sold.

The selling pressure has not significantly impacted the price yet, as the volume is not particularly strong and there has been no aggressive dumping.

However, the wallet still holds a relatively large amount of tokens, so it’s important to monitor price reactions in the coming period.

🔥 After the post was published, $ARC dropped by 15%.

An almost scary level of sensitivity — anyone who shorted must have made a solid profit.

That’s how on-chain works: you uncover insights and turn them into money!
