March 29 2026



the crypto market is closing the week on a heavy, defensive note. After failing to hold the $70,000 level during Friday's massive $16.4 billion options expiry, Bitcoin and Ethereum are struggling to find a solid floor amid Extreme Fear and lingering geopolitical risks.

Market Snapshot
Fear & Greed Index: 13–29 (Extreme Fear to Fear). Sentiment remains deeply suppressed. While some index providers show a slight climb from the single-digit lows of last week, the prevailing mood is one of high caution as traders wait for a macro catalyst.
Bitcoin (BTC): $67,900 (↘ 1.2% in 24h). BTC is currently hovering in a consolidation range between $66,000 and $68,000. It briefly dipped to $65,980 yesterday but has seen minor "dip buying" by institutional whales.
Ethereum (ETH): $2,045 (↘ 2.1% in 24h). ETH is underperforming Bitcoin this morning, struggling to reclaim the psychological $2,100 level after a week of sustained selling pressure.
Solana (SOL): $87.52 (↘ 4.6%). SOL has retraced below $90, mirroring the broader risk-off sentiment despite maintaining strong on-chain stablecoin volumes.
BTC-0,36%
ETH-1,55%
SOL-1,54%
