Image
Ethereum whales have scooped up more than $1.6 billion worth of ETH in the past two days, even as speculation swirls over whether co-founder Jeffrey Wilcke is preparing to sell.

Wilcke, who now leads video games company Grid Games, has not commented publicly on the transfers. A wallet likely belonging to Jeffrey Wilcke—the co-founder of #Ethereum—has just deposited 1,500 $ETH ($5.99M) into #Kraken. Over the past week, this wallet has transferred a total of 2,500 $ETH ($10.3M) to Kraken at an average price of $4,124, and currently holds 2,058 $ETH… pic.twitter.com/iLzBWj5STM — S...

Latest Market Overview 26th Mar: BTC, ETH, XRP, BNB, SOL, DOGE, ADA, LINK, AVAX, XLM

Image
The Bitcoin Market continues to encounter resistance near $90,000, yet the modest decline suggests that traders are once again seizing price dips as buying opportunities. Bullish investors remain persistent, striving to push the price beyond the $90,000 threshold. A promising indicator for the bulls is the sustained inflow into US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, which have recorded net gains for eight consecutive trading days, according to data from SoSoValue. This trend suggests a gradual return of institutional investors. Additionally, a Bitcoin whale significantly increased their holdings by acquiring 2,400 BTC—valued at over $200 million—on 24 March, bringing the total stash to more than 15,000 BTC, as reported by blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence in a post on X.

Cardano Primed To Continue Surging As Whales and Institutions Accumulate ADA, Says Crypto Analyst

Image
The layer-1 blockchain Cardano (ADA) is primed to continue its long-awaited price surge, according to a popular crypto analyst. The digital asset trader Ali Martinez tells his 87,300 followers on the social media platform X that whales and “institutional players” have been buying into the Ethereum (ETH) competitor in anticipation of further price increases. “The volume of large Cardano ADA transactions on the network has surpassed $22 billion per day. Those large transactions appear to be related to high accumulation levels. Indeed, whales holding from $1 million to over $10 million in ADA have increased their positions by more than 100% in the past month.  The high buying pressure is starting to move prices, and from a technical perspective, Cardano seems to be mirroring its previous bullish cycle. If this pattern holds true, ADA could target $6!” Source: Ali Martinez/X Martinez also notes that one “key area” of support that ...

Dogecoin: How DOGE Can Surge If It Holds Current Support Level

Despite a difficult August that saw the asset plummet nearly 25%, Dogecoin is back on the mend this week. DOGE has started a fresh increase above the $0.100 resistance against the US Dollar. With the asset climbing this week, holding above 10 cents for enough time could bring positive gains, showing its resilience. The last several weeks have not been great for DOGE.

The coin has teetered around this price point for the last 48 hours but remains steadily past it. This is...
