Bitcoin's recent movements are interesting. It is trading around $73,360, showing some recovery after the decline experienced the other day. It managed to stay above $72,000, but the analysts' expectation of reaching $80,000 has not yet materialized. Ethereum is performing better, gaining 2.33% in the last 24 hours.



There is an interesting situation in the market; the CoinDesk 5 and 10 indices have increased by about 3%, while DeFi and computing tokens remain almost stagnant. The 25% rise in MANTRA's token migration and re-pricing drew attention. Among privacy tokens, Monero seems to be recovering somewhat.

Looking at derivatives, there are some signals. Bitcoin futures positions have reached 680K BTC, the highest in two weeks. Ethereum's open positions also reached 13.41 million ETH. In XRP and Solana, a quieter picture is observed, with open positions stuck at low levels. Activity is decreasing in less traded instruments like the 56 positions linked to gold tokens.

The overall market sentiment is cautious. Stocks reacted positively to news of communication between Iran and the US, which slightly weakened the dollar index but it still maintains a 3.5% increase since the end of January. Bitcoin generally rises when the dollar weakens, so this dynamic is important. Volatility indices are relatively calm, indicating the market does not expect a rapid move.

An interesting detail: despite SpaceX reporting a loss of about $680k in 2025, it holds approximately 8,285 bitcoins worth about $603 million in Coinbase Prime. The company's AI ventures have costs exceeding sales, but it continues to hold its Bitcoin position. This shows that institutional players' interest in Bitcoin remains ongoing.
BTC-3,42%
