Gate Research: Bitcoin Options Indicators Show No Sustained Bullish Outlook; DeFi Lending Protocol Seamless Announces Shutdown

Gate Research Daily Report: Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market has broadly strengthened. BTC broke above and held firm above $70,000 on increased volume, while ETH outperformed, with high-beta capital clearly rotating back in, though it is approaching overbought territory. SWARMS, JOE, and UNITAS all posted significant gains, driven respectively by the rising AI agent narrative, a rebound in the Avalanche ecosystem, and growing demand for stable payment solutions. Bitcoin’s rebound above $70,000 has boosted market sentiment, but options indicators do not yet signal sustained bullish expectations. Meanwhile, DeFi lending protocol Seamless has announced it will cease operations, with its official interface set to shut down on June 30. The U.S. FDIC has also proposed a new regulatory framework stating that stablecoins will not be eligible for deposit insurance.

Gate Research: Mideast Risks Steer Sentiment; Drift Hack Reprices On-chain Risk Premium

Gate Research Daily Report: April 7 — BTC and ETH saw minor corrections, with the overall market remaining in a phase of consolidation and turnover. Amid heightened fear sentiment, capital flows favored leading assets and thematic rotations, while mid-cap tokens like SUPER, SIREN, and SQD delivered standout performance. On the macro front, US equities ended higher and gold prices stayed near record levels. Within the industry, brokers continued expanding spot market access and the cirBTC narrative gained momentum; however, the Drift incident also spurred a marketplace-wide re-evaluation of both overall DeFi risk and ecosystem risk preferences.

Gate Research: ETH Shows Stronger Structure Than BTC|Drift Protocol Suffers Exploit

Gate Research Weekly Report: BTC surged to $69,305 over the past 24 hours before giving back gains and entering a weaker consolidation phase, while ETH continued to show stronger structure than BTC, rebounding to as high as $2,168 with upside momentum easing at elevated levels. The altcoin market remained structurally mixed, with about 51.02% of tokens posting gains, led by the DID and NFT trading sectors. Stablecoin market capitalization rose to $316.3 billion, up by $640 million over the past week, while Ethereum gas fees remained at low levels. The Drift Protocol exploit, confirmation of the BITA ticker, and approval for options on multi-crypto asset commodity trusts further increased market focus on security risks, yield-enhanced ETF products, and the institutionalization of crypto derivatives. In the coming seven days, HYPE, ENA, and OPN are set to unlock approximately $12.00 million, $19.16 million, and $5.52 million worth of tokens respectively, which may introduce short-term su

VIPGate Research: Drift Protocol Exploited | SEC Approves Options Listing for Multi-Crypto Asset Commodity Trust on NYSE

Over the past 24 hours, BTC pulled back after a short-term rally and entered a weak consolidation phase, with potential sell pressure around the $70,000–$72,000 range. ETH remains relatively stronger structurally but is losing momentum, entering a consolidation phase amid continued ETF outflows and on-chain distribution. Altcoins show clear divergence, with DID and NFT sectors leading—projects like ONT surged over 45%, reflecting short-term capital rotating into hot narratives. Meanwhile, Drift Protocol was attacked with over $220 million in assets suspiciously transferred; BlackRock’s Bitcoin Enhanced Yield ETF has been confirmed under the ticker BITA; and the SEC has approved options listing for a multi-crypto asset commodity trust on the NYSE.

Gate Institutional Weekly: Oil Supply Shock Intensifies, Meteora Trade Sees Significant Growth (Mar. 16–Mar. 22, 2026)

Over the past week, global markets shifted into a risk-off mode, driven by the Fed’s hawkish stance and escalating geopolitical tensions. Rising US Treasury yields have weighed on risk asset valuations. Gold and silver, after previous rallies, corrected by more than 10%. The crypto market also weakened, with BTC dropping below $70,000. At the same time, crude oil prices remained resilient amid expectations of potential supply disruptions, and energy factors continue to influence the inflation outlook. On the capital front, both BTC and ETH ETFs saw net outflows, and short-term capital inflows slowed. Nevertheless, total assets under management remain high, indicating that long-term allocation capital has not exited the market. On-chain, DEX liquidity has become increasingly concentrated in leading and high-efficiency protocols, with Meteora’s rapid rise reshaping the trading landscape. Marginal increases in stablecoins are now primarily driven by protocol-based assets, while DeFi cred

VIPGate Research | Weekly Report for VIPs: M Surges 27%; Ondo Drives RWA Toward Tradable Assets (March 23–29, 2026)

Gate Research: On the 4-hour timeframe, both BTC and ETH showed a similar pattern—rallying early in the week, pulling back thereafter, and retesting lows over the weekend. Among altcoins, MemeCore stood out, gaining about 27.55% over the past seven days, making it the best-performing major token during the period. Over the past week, cross-chain capital flows gravitated toward a few key ecosystems. Driven by volatility in commodities such as crude oil, Hyperliquid and Polygon PoS emerged as the primary destinations for inflows, while Arbitrum and Ethereum accounted for the bulk of outflows. Ondo is driving the evolution of RWAs from yield-oriented, hold-to-maturity assets toward more actively traded instruments. Trading activity in on-chain equities and ETFs has picked up, reshaping the valuation framework for this sector.

VIPGate Research: Extreme Fear Persists | Blockchain Competition Shifts to Settlement and Execution Layers

Gate Research: On March 30, BTC and ETH remained in a narrow trading range, with the market still in extreme fear. Risk appetite and liquidity have yet to recover, and capital is primarily focused on defensive positioning and existing liquidity rotation. Structural opportunities are concentrated in RWA, application-driven projects, and decentralized network infrastructure, with the gains in GF, STIK, and NKN reflecting narrative recovery and high-beta capital rotation. At the industry level, Pharos is integrating USDC and CCTP into mainnet settlement design, shifting public blockchain competition from performance toward settlement and liquidity capabilities. Meanwhile, Sui continues to improve protocol usability and security, and the launch of TxFlow’s mainnet further strengthens the trend toward integrated execution layers in on-chain finance.

Gate Research: Market Trades Around Key Levels | Sui Upgrade Strengthens Protocol Layer Capabilities

Gate Research Daily Report: On March 30, the crypto market continued to trade in a range-bound consolidation, with BTC and ETH repeatedly fluctuating around key levels and no clear trend reversal. The Fear and Greed Index remains in extreme fear, and the market is still dominated by defensive positioning and short-term trading. On the market side, STIK, GF, and NKN ranked as the top three gainers among assets with market capitalizations above ten million dollars, with capital rotating structurally around sectors with clear narratives such as precious metals RWA and decentralized network infrastructure. At the industry level, Pharos and Circle are advancing the integration of USDC and CCTP into mainnet, pushing stablecoin settlement capabilities into the core design of public chains. Sui continues to improve protocol-level usability and security, while the launch of the TxFlow mainnet strengthens the trend toward integrated on-chain financial execution.

Gate Research: Crypto Market Broadly Declines Over the Past 24 Hours | White House Advances Review of Proposal to Include Crypto in 401(k) Plans

Gate Research Daily Report: BTC is showing a pattern of “attempted recovery within a weak consolidation, with momentum yet to stabilize.” ETH remains in a “weak recovery without a confirmed reversal,” with further upside requiring volume expansion. NKN, XNY, and POOL surged sharply against the broader weak market, mainly driven by catalysts such as mainnet upgrades, strengthened AI narratives, and optimized protocol incentives. The White House has approved a review of a proposal to include crypto in 401(k) retirement plans; meanwhile, the largest options expiry of Q1 2026 takes place today, with nearly 40% of contracts set to expire. Institutional investors sold $11 billion in U.S. equities last week, marking the largest weekly sell-off in the past five weeks.
